Help Us Support Jennifer & Her Kids

If you’ve spent any time in Snohomish, you’ve probably met Jennifer—or at least felt the ripple of her kindness. She’s the one showing up with a smile, lending a hand before anyone even asks, and staying until the very end to make sure everything is done. I can honestly say I wouldn’t have made it through Kla Ha Ya Days this year without her.

If you know Jennifer, you also know her three amazing kids. They’re her entire world. Every decision she makes is with their well-being in mind. She works tirelessly to give them a safe, happy life and to raise them into the incredible people they are becoming.

Recently, Jennifer had to make one of the hardest—and bravest—decisions of her life: leaving an unsafe home. After years of hardship, she is determined to break a harmful cycle for herself and her children. But leaving came with huge challenges:

She lost her vehicle and was left with an unsafe, unreliable car—not fit for transporting three kids.

She no longer has access to her personal belongings, including essentials for the children.

She has had to hire a lawyer to protect herself and her family.

Jennifer has just returned to the workforce and is working hard to make ends meet. She’s signed up for every assistance program available, but the truth is, legal fees, a safe vehicle, and replacing basic necessities all cost money she simply doesn’t have right now.

We tried to avoid starting a GoFundMe, wanting to rely on local fundraising instead. And we’re still planning community events—BBQs, bake sales, taco nights, maybe even a lemonade stand! But the need is urgent, and we can’t wait.

This is where you come in.

If you’ve ever known a woman who had the courage to leave, you know how life-changing—and shattering—it can be. The details of the past don’t matter now. What matters is what we, as a community, do next.

Let’s lift Jennifer and her children up. Let’s show them that Snohomish stands behind them.

Every dollar counts. Whether it’s the cost of a cup of coffee or a tank of gas, your donation will help this family find safety, stability, and hope.
