My two boys, our animals, and I are trying to return home to Michigan after leaving a violent situation in California. It is imperative to leave and get home. To protect my family.

Our shared bank account has been drained, leaving us with very limited resources. I am selling everything I possibly can at risk of being stranded in California.

We urgently need $2,500 to pay movers and storage fees before May 20th. Without it, everything we have left, including my children’s clothes, cherished keepsakes, and basic necessities, may remain locked in storage while we try to rebuild our lives from scratch.

We are in the end goal of being safe. That's the last bit to our freedom.

When we make it home it's all over.
