I am an accelerated BSN-RN nursing student and a single mother of two. I recently completed my semester with honors, balancing the demands of nursing school, parenting, and ongoing financial hardship. Sadly, my children and I had to make an unexpected emergency trip after the sudden loss of my younger brother.

Between funeral expenses, emergency travel, and being unable to work consistently because of school, I am now struggling to afford transportation back home. I am asking for help so my children and I can safely get home tomorrow. This will allow me to return to my classes, clinical responsibilities, and work obligations. This has been an incredibly difficult time emotionally, mentally, and financially.

I normally do everything I can to manage on my own, but right now I truly need support. Any donation, regardless of the amount, would mean so much to my family. Even simply sharing this fundraiser could make a huge difference. Thank you for the prayers, kindness, and support during one of the hardest moments of our lives. Every bit of help brings us closer to getting home safely and continuing to move forward despite this loss.
