Help Support Family After Unexpected Loss

Donation protected
Hi Everyone,
As most of you know, my beloved fiancé, Israel, passed away very unexpectedly on June 1st. We had just moved into an apartment together in the beginning of the year and started building a beautiful home with our children. Since his passing, I have been left with supporting my two children, his step kids, on my own. Our lifes were literally turned upside down overnight. I have been trying my best to keep a roof over our head and food on the table but it has been extremely difficult on a single income.

I have fallen behing on almost everything. I know once I get caught up, the kids and I will be fine. On top of everything else, my only vehicle broke down about a month ago. It needs a new engine and unfortunately I still owe on it as well. Luckily a good friend has been letting me borrow their car for the time being. It's not the best but it gets us from point A to point B. But we can't use the car forever.

I am still working full time but with Israel gone I have to take days off or miss a few hours for the kids doctors appointments and mine as well. My youngest, Galaxi, is having surgery to have her adenoids removed later this month so thats a day I will miss. Not to mention all of us being in grief therapy now. I can't go to food banks since I work during the week nor do I qualify for any financial assistance. I don't receive any child support for either of the kids so it's solely on me now.

Israel was such a huge part of our lifes. He meant so much to so many people. He was an amazing father to Dominic and Galaxi. We are all missing a piece of us now. All of our happy moments and accomplishments are bittersweet wishing he was with us. The impact he left on all who knew him is unmeasurable. His family along with mine have been an amazing support system for us.

I don't usually ask for help publicly because I like to do things on my own and I think I do a pretty good job at it, but right now, my family needs help. Anything you donate is greatly appreciated and will help us. Thank you all for reading and donating. Much love.
