Hello, my name is Jasmine Ortiz, and I’m reaching out during one of the most challenging times in my life. Four years ago, I became a widow and have been raising my three amazing children on my own. Despite working hard and doing everything I can to provide for my family, the financial stress has become overwhelming.

Two weeks ago, we experienced an accidental water leak in our home that caused flooding in my children’s bedrooms. The carpets had to be removed, and we now need to install new flooring. Unfortunately, we also lost some of our furniture and clothing in the process, which added even more financial strain to an already difficult situation.

I’m asking for your support to help us get back on our feet.

The funds raised will go directly toward essential needs — including our mortgage, utilities, groceries, replacement of damaged items, and home repairs. My goal is to relieve this immediate financial pressure so I can focus on regaining stability and providing a safe, comfortable home for my children.

This is not an easy step for me to take, but I believe in the kindness of others and the power of community. Any amount — big or small — truly makes a difference. And if you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing my story with others who may be able to help.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading, supporting, and standing with me in this difficult time. Your compassion means more than words can express.

With gratitude,

Jasmine Ortiz
