Down Syndrome Awareness: Help my sister find a home

Donation protected
My sister is a 35-year-old woman with Down syndrome who has lived in our family home with my mother and grandmother since she was born. Recently, a family member moved in and we discovered that he had been abusing my sister for months. Our family is in denial and has chosen his side, forcing my sister and mother to leave the only home they've ever known. This has been devastating for all of us, especially for my sister, who needs stability and support more than ever.

We are urgently trying to find a safe place for my sister and mother to live, close to the area they know. My mother is elderly, has no transportation, and has worked at her job for over 20 years, which is within walking or bus distance from their current home. The funds raised will help them secure a new home nearby and provide essential furniture and household items so they can start over in a safe environment. Every donation, share, and kind word will help us give them the safety and stability they deserve.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Truly. What my family is going through right now is incredibly painful. My sister is being forced to leave the only home she has ever known. As her sister, it is heartbreaking to see her and my mother go through something so unfair and so difficult. Every single donation, share, and kind word means more than I can put into words. You are helping me give her safety, stability, and a fresh start when she needs it most. I feel your love, and I am beyond grateful. Para mi gente, gracias de todo corazón. Su apoyo, sus oraciones, y su cariño significan muchísimo para nosotros. Nunca lo vamos a olvidar.
