Help us recover financially after car crash.

My name is Alexis.

On May 20th, 2025, my partner of 7 years, was unfortunately in an accident from hydroplaning on the freeway, resulting in him hitting the barricade. He is okay other than some scrapes, soreness, and bruises by the grace of God. However, our car is a different story. Our insurance unfortunately did not cover any costs for the car and we are now left with an almost $10,000 loan with no car.

This car I had purchased on my own in 2022 as my first “big girl purchase.” I had no credit established and no co-signer. Although the loan was a challenge due to the 15.99% APR, I took on the challenge to jump-start my adulthood. Three years later, unfortunately, it feels all for nothing.

Due to our car being totaled, it is at a tow lot accumulating a $48/day fee that it is there. This fee is on top of the tow charge. So far, my total is at almost $600; it may even be beyond that. I am looking to hopefully get our car out of the tow lot and into our parking spot at our house. I am not able to junk the car yet because I had contacted gap insurance, which I had pursued on the loan, and fortunately, they are going to see if I qualify for coverage through that claim. We are scared of the outcome if gap insurance doesn’t cover anything.

I am raising money to hopefully be able to afford a tow out of the tow lot and pay the fee that has accumulated. I am also in hopes to raise money to help us pay for a new car, even a down payment.

My boyfriend and I are struggling financially right now with little to no money left over after we pay our bills. The financial burden of this crash has been immense and taken a toll on our mental health.

We’re asking for any help we can get; we appreciate anything.

Everything helps.

Thank you ❤️
