UPDATE!!!! SAVAYA HAS BEEN FOUND! WE ARE SO GRATEFUL!

BUT WE ARE DES

ERATE TO GET OUR FAMILY OFF THE STREETS. WE ARE STILL HOMELESS!



WE NEED YOUR HELP...


Hello to all of you, We are the Lowman Family. Thank you for taking time to stop at our page.

Please disre

ard the parts of our story concerning our daughter being missing, she has been found!

But we need help with getting our family into a home ...we are lit

rally living on the street!

My name is Maggie, my husband's name is Allen, our son's name is Mason, and our daughter's name is Savaya.


My family is reaching out to you because we are in desperate need of some help with not only finding our 15 year old daughter, but also now,



After being illegally evicted by our landlord, with a place to live as well!....

I have called every number for orgaizations and charities I have found and been given, and every one of them has nothing left and are full or not in operation anymore!


Please continue to read for more details ...



On Sunday, December 8, 2024 at about 11:00AM, our daughter Savaya Lowman left our home, located in Palmetto, FL, to go for a short walk, this being nothing out of the ordinary for her, as she enjoys walking and had told me that it helps her think, however since that day she has not been seen or heard from since!


We are desperate to find her and are going non-stop and reaching out and expanding our efforts as far and wide as possible, however due to the recent disasters here in Florida, our money was already stretched and barely covered our living expenses before all of this, but now it's so much worse.


With our finances as of right now, it's impossible for us to


  1. Find and pay moving in expenses for a place to live

Our prior apartment was illegally and extremely suddenly ripped from us.


The property managers, after only 2 days of our daughter going missing, gave us a 7 days to vacate eviction; stating it to be due to the continued police activity when, Manatee County Sheriff, responded to our 911 call for our daughter going missing.


They were actually doing their best to find her and returned several times over a span of a couple of days.


Also thrown into this sit

ation, my husband was fired from the property maintenance supervisor position for which he was a stellar employee for Accolade Property Management company that owns the Gateway Commons Apartments that we lived at.


He was a Maintenance Supervisor for the last 8 years in Tarpon Springs Florida, and since June, was promoted to be the Maintenance Supervisor for the Gateway Commons Apartments property in Palmetto Florida.



So, we completely relocated for this position and as a perk of the position recieved an apartment at a discounted rate.


After being let go for obscure shady reasons,

He immediately asked for a reconcideration due to extenuating circumstances, only to have them immediately tell us no and was dismissive and unjustly cold and inconsiderate about it.


The staff did not help with any part of the search for our daughter and physically tore down any and all missing posters that we hung up, not only for the property but also the nearby areas that we hung them in.


Everyday, we either walk or when possible we pay the ever growing Uber costs, to post posters and ask others if she has been seen. We cover as much ground as physically possible, but we are reaching a point where it's becoming improbable and unhealthy for us to continue like this and still be helpful to give us a chance of having success with finding her.


Our family is devastated by these recent events and we struggle harder than ever before. It's made it so much more difficult to search for our beautiful girl because of that company forcing us to be homeless, as we have no family or close friends nearby that would be able to provide us a place to stay. We have to make sure we can keep our other child, our 17 year old autistic son from sleeping on the streets so, we are forced to spend every dollar paying for hotels instead of us being able to use the funds and focus on expanding our search efforts.


It's been, to be frank, pure hell and a parents worst nightmare.

We are hoping that by us reaching out to you all, we will be able to secure enough funds to continue and expand our search for Savaya, which gives us a better chance of success with bringing her home safe.

Update: we are hoping to receive funds and use them for someplace to live and get our family off the streets.

we are in hopes that reaching out will give us the ability to find a stable place to live,


which will also let us focus on searching without having to worry about a roof over our heads and where our next meal will come from.


All donated funds will be divided up into the following areas:


.


  • Locating and paying the move in expenses for a stable more secure place to live.

** this also cuts out food bill considerably because we will be able to cook our meals vs. having to buy already cooked or fast food.


  • Covering the costs for searching for Savaya

** Printing posters, purchasing advertising sections to post at

**Online Awareness and continued updating needs.

** Transportation costs as we travel from area to area knocking on doors, asking people we see out, and posting posters at public areas such as gas stations stores and other popular areas.

** Possibly purchasing a time period on billboards.

** other costs as they arise


Update: we only need money to find a place to live


Please help my family get through this absolute nightmare we have been thrown into. We are so grateful to you for any amount you are able to give. No amount is too small.


We understand how difficult it is for so many people right now and with it being the holiday season on top of it all.


Some additional details about us and our beautiful daughter.......


Savaya is just the most amazing and truly beautiful young woman inside and out and has the most contagious smile. She is a natural artist with the ability to master whatever she starts doing. Wether it's painting, drawing, playing music, meeting new people, helping others or writing a poem or story, etc... she just seemingly easily picks it up and puts out amazing prohects.


She is so smart and funny and we adore her and are so very proud to be able to have her as our daughter.


Our hearts are shattered without her here and we miss her so very much. We are just lost and feel so incomplete without her!


We are terrified for her safety and fear that she is in a great deal of danger as she unfortunately has been burdened with the struggle of battling Bipolar, anxiety, and depression.


Savaya is prescribed medication and since her disappearance has not been taking her much needed medication that she does not currently have with her. This puts a real possibility that this wonderful girl could think she wants to harm herself because it is very difficult for her to think properly and clearly when she hasn't had her meds and isn't with her supportive family and friends, causing depression and self harming ideations, and lead to her to spiral down quickly.


We need to find her as soon as possible and we won't stop until we do, funds or no funds, however unfortunately the reality is we need to be able to get transportation, put a roof over us, and get more resources to give us the ability to focus and expand the search for her.


Update: Savaya has been found and we are only in need of a place to live!


Please help and with all of us together as a whole large network, we will be successful in bringing her home safe.


We set our goal for $5,000.00 which will provide down payment or cheap car, move in expenses, plus search costs ie., gas, printing and distribution of posters, food and drink while canvasing each area that we walk, plus other expenses that we encure.


Thank all so much.

WAIT! I am inclu

ing even more details for you .....


Below is a summary of the details surrounding her disappearance.


  • Her name is Savaya Lowman and she is 15 years old. The Manatee County Sheriff Detective nor do we, her family, know for sure if she was abducted or has runaway, however either way my daughter is at a very high risk of danger due to having a diagnosis of bipolar and depression and being off of her medication that we found are still at home and not taken with her

The struggle is hard for her when not taking her medicine and being away from her support system and can cause her to have suicidal ideations, feel lonely and unloved, sad, angry, and ultimately can make her spiral downward very quickly.


She was last seen leaving our apartment complex on the 5000 block of 52nd Ave East, in Palmetto Florida at about 11am on 12/8/2024 and was going for one of her walks that she enjoys taking. She usually is back within 20 minutes to just about an hour or less but she has not been seen since.

She left carrying nothing but her gray hoodie jacket on her arm and her iphone.

She was wearing white sneakers, Nike Air Force Ones,


Jean shorts, a T-shirt and was wearing a gold bracelet with inscription "For my daughter", on it as well as a silver infinity symbol necklace I had just purchased for her


Any information as to her whereabouts PLEASE CALL Manatee County Sherriff at [phone redacted] nine 4 one-747-three zero one one extension 1970 or if you want to remain anonymous please call nine 4 one- 285- zero zero five 8. Ask for Maggie.


The cell phone companies, Apple and T-Mobile, have been of no help with accessing location of her phone though the police are actively working on that part. We've posted to social media and continue to do so as well as the sheriff department.


We will continue our efforts in the mean time and walk as far as we physically are able all day everyday posting posters everywhere with the blisters on our feet, exhaustion, and aches and pains, but we can't and won't stop because Savaya my beautiful Jellybean (my longtime nickname just between her and myself) needs to be found.


We hope in angst that our girl is safe.


Savaya, if you are ok and you somehow see this, Please come home. I am losing my mind and my world is just shattered without you.


Please give me the chance to make the changes you need and deserve, I know things have not been easy lately for any of us, but I promise you I wont stop at anything in order to give you what you need!


I love you Jellybean please let me know you are ok!!!



Please help us find our daughter.... She is so amazing in so many ways and has so much potential to really make a difference in this world when she is older. We are just lost without her.

We are a desperate for answers!
