<div>On Thursday, January 9th, Lauren Saldana, 38, was tragically and senselessly taken from this world, leaving behind a family shattered by grief. Her murder has left a hole in all of our hearts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She leaves behind 4 beautiful children, M(19), G(16), G(5), and A(3 weeks), who now face a future without their mother. As we navigate this painful time, we want to ensure her children are supported and cared for, just as she would have wanted.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This tragedy is made even more painful and brutal by the fact that Lauren was 3 weeks postpartum and her 5-year-old son witnessed her murder. He is now faced with trauma no child should ever have to endure. His sister is fighting to gain custody of him to ensure he has the stability, care, and love he needs to begin healing.

</div>
<div>Lauren faced many challenges in her life, but one thing was clear: she loved her children in the best way she knew how and wanted them to have more out of life than she did.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Lauren was a person. She was a mother, a daughter, a sister, a niece, a cousin, a grandchild, and a friend. She did not deserve for her life to be taken in such a heinous and disgusting way.

<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking for your support to honor her memory and help her children navigate the incredibly difficult road ahead. <strong>The funds raised will go directly toward:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>-Funeral and memorial expenses, so we can honor Lauren with the dignity she deserves
</div>
<div>-Funds to help (M) secure custody of her brother, giving him the safety and stability he desperately needs. Including securing a long term housing for them to live.
</div>
<div>-Immediate needs for her children
</div>
<div>-If there is any outstanding balance, it will be divided equally between the four children and placed into trusts for them to have as they age. Long-term care and stability for her kids.
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div>We are also committed to shedding light on the issue of domestic violence, which played a major role in this devastating tragedy. If you or someone you know needs help, please contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) or text “BEGIN” to 88788. Help is available, and no one should have to face this alone. Please let her story be the reason you leave.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our family is heartbroken, but we are determined to honor Lauren’s legacy by ensuring her children have the future she would’ve wanted for them. <strong>Your generosity—whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser—will mean the world to us during this unimaginably difficult time.</strong> We know times are hard on everyone, so the fact that you’ve taken the time to read this is incredibly helpful. Please share to keep her story public. Share her name, share her story.

<div>*GoFundMe has asked me to provide clarity for the donators and I am more than glad to do so. My name is Kayla, I am the children's aunt. Lauren was my sister. I started this GoFundMe to help my niece and nephews navigate an impossible situation as our family grieves a devastating loss. I will ensure the funds are allocated properly into the avenues that I have listed above. On behalf of my entire family, we could not be more grateful for the love and support that has been and is continuing to be given. These kids need all the help they can get as they navigate through this world. M(19) is so incredible and is taking on so much. Her portion of these funds are going to secure a home away from all of this so they can have a fresh start. Your contributions are beginning to make that possible. Thank you so, so much, from the bottom of my heart.
