My daughters, Abbie and Kerianna, have faced more challenges in their young lives than any child should. For years, they lived in an environment where they were not safe or cared for—experiencing abuse, neglect, and a lack of basic hygiene. At school, they were bullied for things beyond their control, like their teeth and body odor, and struggled to keep up academically. When they came to live with me and my mother, we saw just how much they needed a safe, loving home.

Over the past two years, Abbie and Kerianna have started to blossom. With the support of our family, they’ve learned to take care of themselves, their grades have improved, and they’re making friends and joining activities like band. They go to counseling, and we talk openly about their fears and hopes. The light is coming back into their eyes, and I’m so proud of the strong, resilient young ladies they are becoming. We’ve built a close relationship, and I know they have the best chance for a happy, healthy future here with me.

Right now, I am seeking full custody to protect my daughters and give them the stability they deserve. Legal fees are high, and with all our resources going toward moving into a bigger house for our family, we need help to cover the costs. I’m asking for your support to help us secure a safe home and a brighter future for Abbie and Kerianna. Every donation brings us one step closer to giving them the life they deserve.
