Help Candyce and Kids Move into Stable Housing

Donation protected
Hi, this is DL, Candyce's sibling and I am organizing this GoFundme to help ensure Candyce and her kids are able to transition into stable, secure housing on August 15th. Candyce has been hard at work trying to become financially independent after a lifetime of high control environments, and she just needs a little help with all the associated stress and costs of moving as a single parent.

Here is the message from Candyce:

Hi friends,

I’m a single mom of two very cool kiddos, and after years of instability and a difficult living situation, we’ve finally found a new home we can afford—a place that offers us peace, privacy, and a real sense of safety.


The move is happening very soon—August 15th and while I’ve done everything I can to plan and prepare, I’m still coming up short on the actual moving costs. I’ll be packing between work shifts and a dear friend’s wedding, and while I’ve had a few generous friends offer help with lifting and hauling, I don’t have the funds to cover things like:

a rental truck

gas

packing supplies

a heavy-duty garbage bin rental for clearing out the old place (you pay by weight and it’s so much easier than endless dump runs)

small thank-you meals for volunteers

and a cushion for last-minute expenses (like pet deposits or utility hookups)



I’m not someone who asks lightly. But this is a turning point for my kids and me—leaving a harmful environment and stepping into a future we get to shape on our own terms.


If you’re able to help with even a small amount, it would mean the world. Every dollar goes toward making this move possible and giving my kids a stable, joyful home.


Thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping us begin again.

With love and deep gratitude,

Candyce Strannigan
