Allysa is one of those rare, radiant souls who lights up every room she enters. At 20 years old, she is kind, grounded, intelligent, and deeply driven. Whether through her strong work ethic, her warmth, or the quiet confidence she carries, people often say to her, “You’re going places.” She is admired not only for her grace and beauty, but for the respect she shows others and the integrity with which she walks through life.

Recently, Allysa faced an unimaginable loss: the sudden and very public passing of her father. Grieving is hard enough at any age, but for a young woman just starting out in life, to carry that weight so publicly, and so young, is heartbreaking.

On top of her grief, Allysa has had to take on responsibilities no one should have to manage alone at 20—coordinating with the coroner, crematorium, gathering death certificates, arranging final expenses, and trying to plan a celebration of life while working and preparing to take on a second job.

This is where we’re asking for help.

We’re hoping to ease some of the financial burden so Allysa can grieve with space and dignity—and so she can give her father the farewell he deserves. Every little bit helps, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this with others who may be able to support her.

In times of tragedy, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by judgment or the weight of others’ opinions. But we believe just as strongly in the power of community, kindness, and love. Let’s show Allysa that the good she puts into the world comes back when it’s needed most.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts—for reading, for sharing, for caring.
