Help Avaun and Jenna Rebuild Their Lives

Donation protected




Dear Friends, Neighbors, and Compassionate Supporters,

We are reaching out with a heavy heart and an urgent plea for help for this local Hutto, TX. family. Avaun, a 15-year-old who is known for his incredible kindness, humility, and talent as an all-star basketball player, has recently experienced a horrifying and life-threatening event. On July 30th, while sitting in his mom’s vehicle, Avaun was shot in the neck by a classmate who fired 12 shots into the vehicle. This traumatic incident, witnessed by his 7-year-old brother, 18-year-old brother, three friends, and his devoted mother, has left the family reeling.

About Avaun:

Avaun is a beacon of positivity and kindness, drawing people to him with his warm heart and generous spirit. He is a talented athlete who has touched the lives of many in our community. His resilience and the support he has received from all of us are a testament to his character.

The Situation:

After spending 9 days in the hospital, Avaun is thankfully on the path to recovery. However, the journey ahead is still fraught with medical appointments, therapies, and ongoing care. In addition to the physical and emotional trauma, Jenna is facing substantial financial burdens due to this devastating incident.

Jenna, a single mother who has always been the first to help others, is now in need of our support. She is known for her incredible generosity and has never been one to ask for help, despite always being there for everyone else.

How You Can Help:

We are reaching out to ask for your support in covering:

1. Medical Expenses: Despite the positive progress, Avaun will need continued medical care, including follow-up treatments and therapy. The medical costs are substantial, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

2. Lost Wages: As a single mother, Jenna has had to miss work to be by Avaun’s side during this challenging time. Your contributions will assist in covering lost wages and everyday expenses while she focuses on her family’s needs.

3. Vehicle Repairs: The shooting caused $14,000 worth damage to the family vehicle, (insurance is only covering a fraction of this cost) which is crucial for transportation to medical appointments and daily activities. Funds are needed to repair or replace the vehicle so they can manage their essential needs.

Why Your Support Matters:

Jenna has always been a cornerstone of kindness and support in our community, providing a safe space and loving environment for neighborhood kids. Her selflessness and generosity have made a significant impact on many lives. Now, it’s our turn to show our support and help her and Avaun through this challenging period.

Your generosity, whether through a financial donation or by sharing this campaign, will make a significant impact. Together, we can ease their burdens and help them move forward from this tragic event.

Thank you for your compassion and support.
