Help Susana Cover Rent While She Heals

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Freedom Baird and I'm fundraising for my friend Susana (a nickname). She’s undocumented, and just had a major cancer surgery at Dana Farber in Boston. In her home country she was a licensed nutritionist, and here in the US she cleans houses to support her daughter who is a student at a US college.

I’ve been coordinating with a social worker at Dana Farber who secured her $750 grocery coverage, and who enrolled her in The Ride for transportation to medical visits (she doesn't have a car). We're now working on support for her rent, but it will take a couple months to get her enrolled in an assistance program. So I’m seeking donations to help her cover a couple months rent.

Her surgery was very serious, involving several organs, and she currently can't do physical work. In this photo of her hand she was showing me the incision which wraps around her torso. She has been incredibly brave and stoic throughout this situation, and is a caring, intelligent, hard-working person, and a loving and devoted mom.

If you’re able and feel comfortable donating, any amount will help, and she would be so deeply grateful. I'll give the donations directly to her so she can pay her rent.

Thank you so much ❤️ Freedom
