Help Victoria Fight for Custody and Stability

Help Me Fight for My Babies and Our Future

Here is our daughter's story and needs assistance to fight custody and housing.

I never thought I’d find myself in a situation like this. I loved a man with my whole heart for over 4 ½ years, but that love was manipulated and used against me. In that time, I was mostly a stay-at-home mom raising my four beautiful children. Slowly, he isolated me, controlled me, and shattered the foundation I thought we had. He lied, cheated, and took away my freedom, even going so far as to “lose” my wallet after an argument to prevent me from getting a job. I was left with nothing but a broken heart and a home where I felt like a prisoner.

Despite his actions, I focused on raising my children—he provided a roof, but that’s where his contribution ended. I took care of them alone, day after day, with little help from him. Now, he’s demanding full custody of my two youngest children, and it feels like he’s taking my entire world away from me out of spite. He’s using his financial resources and power to take advantage of me, knowing that I don’t have the same means to fight back.

Last month, he ended the relationship and gave me less than a month to find a new place for myself and my two oldest children. I’m heartbroken, homeless, and struggling to give my kids the life they deserve while trying to protect them from the fallout. My children mean everything to me—they are the reason I breathe. I have been there for every moment of their lives, teaching them how to walk, talk, and say "I love you." I can't imagine losing them, or being forced to separate them from each other.

I am asking for help with legal fees so that I can fight for my babies and provide them with a stable future. I need $10,000 to secure a lawyer who will help me stand up for my rights as a mother. I am trying to put down as much of a deposit as possible, but I cannot do it alone. It is incredibly difficult for me to ask for help, but I have no other choice. He is using this fight to punish me for leaving, but I cannot lose my children—they are my heart, my soul, my everything.

If you can, please help me in any way you can. Your support means the world to me and my children. I just want the chance to rebuild our lives and keep our family together.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story and for any support you can offer.

With love and gratitude,

Victoria
