Mariela is a loving aunt, sister, daughter. She was the victim of a hit and run accident on 4th of july by a DUI driver, which has left her unable to work for the foreseeable future. She suffered serious injuries, including surgeries to her knee, arm, head, and forehead, and is now facing mounting medical bills and daily living expenses. The accident has not only impacted her health but also her independence, as she currently lives alone in Eugene, Oregon.

The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward covering her medical expenses, living costs, and the significant moving expenses required to relocate her to California. This move is essential so she can be reunited with her sister, who will help provide the care she needs during her recovery. With her head injuries, doctors are uncertain about any lasting consequences, and only time will tell how she will heal. For now, it is urgent to move her back to California so she can be surrounded by family and receive the support she needs.

We would be extremely thankful for any contributions made. The driver responsible for the hit and run left her at the site of the accident, but thankfully, bystanders stayed with her until the ambulance arrived. Your support will make a real difference in her life, helping her recover and rebuild after this traumatic event. Every donation, no matter the size, will help bring her closer to safety, care, and hope.
