This past year has been one of the hardest I’ve faced as a single mom. When Ezra’s dad stopped paying child support last May, I was left to handle everything on my own—balancing school, work, and raising my son without any family support. To keep us afloat, I had to put nearly six months of rent on credit cards, and every day has been a struggle to stay on track and build a stable future for us.

Ezra is four years old and has been at his daycare since he was 17 months old. It’s more than just a place for him to spend his days—it’s a community where he’s made his best friends, where the teachers know and love him, and where he’s thrived through enrichment programs that set him up for success in public school. He loves dinosaurs, animals, playing pretend, soccer, and reading books. This daycare has given him a safe, loving space to grow, and it means the world to both of us.

I’m hesitant to ask for help because I never want to be a burden, but I’m trusting God and reaching out with this vulnerable request. Right now, I’m asking for help covering the student renewal fee so Ezra can have one more year at daycare and maybe pay off the debt I took on to keep us housed. That year means everything—it allows me to continue working, stay in school, and keep moving forward instead of falling further behind. If you’re able to give, share, or even just send support, it truly means more than I can put into words. Thank you for being part of our village.
