I'm a high school art teacher in San Fernando, CA and I need your help.
My student, Celeste, is a talented artist and high school junior who's mom is having brain surgery to remove fluid from her brain. She is also the primary caregiver for her mother, who has been suffering from a brain injury for some time. After the surgery, Celeste's mom will need to rest without any stress for at least 6 weeks. Surgery is set to take place before Christmas and Celeste has been living alone with her mom. She's been able to care for her up until this point, but now she needs help.
Celeste has been home doing distance learning and caring for her mom since the pandemic began in March. She is a great student who is suffering immensely under the weight of these responsibilities. She has a promising future in the arts and needs our help to stay housed, care for her mother, and focus on her studies.
Since getting ill, mom has been unable to work and the family is facing eviction if they cannot make their $1500 rent at the end of this month. Celeste is not able to earn money for rent and care for her mother. If they cannot make rent in November and December, her mom will not be able to recover from surgery, putting her life in danger, and facing possible homelessness.
The teachers and families at my school are coming together to support the family with food and meals to help them during this time. We need your help to raise enough money to keep the family housed for a few months while mom recovers and Celeste's older siblings can earn enough money for the coming months.
Every donation will bring this family the chance to allow mom to heal, Celeste to focus on school, and keep them housed.
Can you help her?
The goal of the page is to raise 2 months' rent to keep the family housed until the end of January. They are hopeful that by then the older children will be able to contribute to the housing expenses.
Donations will go directly to the family to pay their rent and help make sure they have someone to stay during mom's recovery. Thank you for your kindness.
