Hello, my name is Chad Southard. I recently lost the mother of my children unexpectedly. I am raising money so I can start the court proceedings to keep my oldest daughter. I want to be able to keep her with her little brother and sister. Sadly, I was never able to adopt her when her mother was still alive; this is why I am asking for help.

Thank you for all the donations I have raised the goal in hopes it will also help me afford the court cost and help with a lawyer
