Help Olive's Family Stay Housed and Safe

We've created this GoFundMe campaign to seek support as we navigate this challenging transition. Your contributions will help us with our rent:

Our Story:

Hi everyone, my name is Olive Francoise, I'm 41 years old, I've been a widow since September 2, 2024, and I'm the mother of three children aged 5, 13 and 17 ( Urie, Michel and Lucas). We arrived in the United States on July 17, 2023, as part of my late husband's job. My husband, the main provider for our family, had no savings plan, let alone life insurance. The reason was that his employment contract was only for three years, and we had to return to our country. He did not meet the conditions required to subscribe to the life insurance policies with which he had come into contact. Furthermore, my late husband's employment contract allowed him to remain in the United States until February 2025.

Given my administrative situation, which did not and still does not authorize me to work legally on American soil, our financial situation has continued to deteriorate since his sudden and premature departure, plunging me and my children into unparalleled distress.

Unable to take over the household responsibilities, I now find myself in a precarious situation with the children. If we continue to stay on American soil today, it's to enable our children to complete their school year and, in the case of the eldest, to validate his university degree. As our lease runs until February 2025, I am unfortunately unable to cover this expense as I do not have the legal authorization to work.

I am therefore appealing to your kindness and generosity to solicit any form of help that may enable the children and myself to get through this complicated time in our lives, pending our return to our country of origin in mid-2025.
