Support Siblings After Loss of Their Only Parent
Donation protected
Last week Eddie and Enjanae's mother, Tanisha Taylor, experienced a sudden and very unexpected heart attack. Following a long few days, Eddie and Enjanae were forced to make the difficult decision to take their mother off of her life support.
Being their sole parental figure, the loss of their mother left Eddie and Enjanae without a support system. The siblings are both students at Louisiana State University, and they have been living on campus for the last semester. As of May 18th, both of their leases for on-campus housing will end, which would leave them more or less homeless. Having no means of transportation, living on-campus is extremely important for their access to resources and education. The purpose of this GoFundMe is to help raise emergency funding for their living expenses for the upcoming semester and to help pay off student loans taken out in order to finance their education.
Eddie Taylor is 22, a junior, and majors in Sports Administration. He is active in the LSU community, working with an event management internship and being a star member of the LSU Powerlifting team. Enjanae Taylor is 20, a sophomore, and majors in Fashion Merchandising and Journalism at LSU. She is an Alpha Lambda Delta officer, a PR officer of the Fashion Association at LSU, and also works as an Entertainment Reporter at The Reveille.
Both Eddie and Enjanae are very involved with their communities at LSU, and being huge LSU fans, their education was a point of pride for their mother. It is important to Eddie and Enjanae that they can continue their education not only for themselves, but as a tribute to their mom. Any donation can help create financial stability and ease the immense stress that these two young adults are facing far earlier than they should have to.
