Family, friends, and those with a heart to help.

My wife Kim and I are stepping into a brand-new chapter. After 3 years in Los Angeles filled with extreme hardship, we are relocating to Dallas in hopes of stability, community, and a fresh start for our growing family.

When I moved to LA, I carried dreams, vision, and faith. But life in this city tested me in ways I could’ve never imagined. I’ve watched my business take a major hit, finances get depleted, and doors close one after another. I’ve known the sting of homelessness, nights of sleeping in my car…while still serving faithfully in my church. And through it all, I held onto hope.

Kim and I have tried to make the best of life here, but truthfully, we have no real community in LA. The few friends we could lean on did what they could, but it was only temporary relief. Others we expected to rely on offered nothing. And yet…we persevered.

Today, we are 5 months pregnant with our baby girl. Together Kim and I share 7 children, and the thought of raising our newest child while trying to rebuild in a city that has drained us is too heavy to carry. Kim and I strongly believe that God is opening the door for us to relocate to Dallas, TX. Dallas offers us the chance at stability, lower cost of living, and the community support that we’ve desperately needed.

We are asking for your help to cover the costs of relocating and preparing for our baby girl’s arrival.

What We’re Raising Funds For:

• Shipping 2 Cars from LA to Dallas: $2,400–$3,000

• Housing Costs (security deposit + 1st month’s rent + fees): $6,500

• Baby Essentials (crib, stroller, car seat, diapers, clothes, bottles, etc.): $4,000

✅ Total Goal: $13,500

This is not easy to write. We are people who’ve always tried to give, to serve, to show up for others…but right now, we’re in a place where we need help.

Every seed you sow, no matter how small…gets us closer to building a stable life for our children and welcoming our baby girl into the world with peace instead of pressure.

If you can’t give financially, please share this campaign with your circle or say a little prayer for us…Your support means more than words could ever express.

We believe that out of this hardship, something beautiful is being birthed. Thank you for helping us write the next chapter of our story.

With love and gratitude,

DeAngelo & Kim Gardner
