My name is Leandro Estrada. I just recently lost my beloved mother. Upon her passing, she left behind a will leaving me her little house. Her boyfriend, Felipe Garcia, was living there, which was okay out of respect for my mom. In March of this year, he asked me to help him pay the house. I said okay and was giving this man $500 every month. Well, I told him 4 months later to just give me the address to the mortgage company and I'll pay it myself. He gave me the wrong address. It turned out to be the mortgage company but the wrong department, so for 4 months I was sending money orders to them, but they were never getting the money. Today, I found out that they are going to foreclose on the house if I don't pay the amount owed from when her boyfriend was staying there. On top of that, this guy took all my mom's belongings, appliances, jewelry, anything my mom had of worth and that she worked hard for and loved.

I'm reaching out to the community for help and support so that I may salvage my mother's home, the home I grew up in, and the place that holds so many heartwarming memories of my mom. This is the only thing I have left of her. I wouldn't be able to live at peace if I lost it. I have $2,000 but need $5,000 more. Anything would be appreciated. Please help!
