Donation protected
Hi and thank you for even opening this and reading my story. Im a single mom with 2 awsome daughters. We run an animal rescue from out of our home .(we are not a 501c3 just people who have big hearts and believe everything deserves a chance )we live in an old home (from 1854). Since i bought this home it has been my dream house Old style,farm house. I knew it was just what i always wanted. Well through all the huge changes in finances over the years first by leaving a higher paying job to a lower to spend more time with my kids after 5 years eventually loosing my job all together (im now on social security disability ) . Since i was younger I've had health problems(lupus,fiberomalgia,and recked disks in my back being some of my problems) and finally couldnt work after years of working 2 jobs and long hours i was terrified to be where i was .We went from low income poor to even lower income and dirt poor and we are still keep our chins up the best we can ,crying over spilled milk dont get it cleaned up now does it!? When i worked i used to pay the property taxes with my income taxes but as i found out you dont get back larger taxes so for last year and this year I've been unable to pay them. Well as i found out after 2 years they can and will just padlock your door and my families home will go up for auction! We have been struggling for so long just trying to get by I've been unable to get money to pay the property taxes. Well I've now been told we have till the end of this month to pay the nearly now $8000 i owe for the last 2 years . 22 days and counting we have to pay or get tossed out. Now of course I'd never want to leave our home,not this way and not unless or untill we have life solid under our feet. Im freaking out of course! I am a "half full" type of person so i keep trying to not fall apart. We have nearly 253 animals here . Of all different kinds ,we take in the ones who have no were to go,last chance hotel sort of.So myself,my kids and all the animals would have no home,no place to call home no more. This breaks my heart so manys ways. Were the heck would we all ever go?? I have over the years have been blessed by God with awsome friends. They have supported my family ,my animals so much we would have never made it this far. But even with good support this is more money than even they can afford.
Now if im blessed enough to actually get the taxes paid and we can keep our home I'd like to finally fix that roof! Its been leaking for years and mold grows like crazy all over the house i have no idea what one costs these days so im hoping we will have enough donated to get a new one or parts fixed atleast.
I pray we can generate enough funds to help get our family out of this predicament, (ill be so happy if we can atleast pay the property taxes that ill feel so blessed but if we get the roof fixed too ,i will know God still puts awsome people in my life and he still believes in me ! I know there are tons of people that you ,reading this ,can donate to. I pray some of you read this and say they just need another chance with there life. Just like we say to our animals we take in they always need another chance at there life . We all just need chances till we can find or make that "happy "life we all deserve to live. Please help out and thank you for taking the time to read my story. It has taken me a super long time to find the courage to finally get our story out there looking for help from someone like you reading this. Thank you from all of us here. .. God will bless you too if and when you need it....
