My name is Noelle Benepe @noellebenepe on social media. I saw this picture of two little girls outside Taco Bell and it broke my heart then later came to learn their whole story. Im starting this simply because I know there are a lot of families that need help and I believe there are a lot of families that can offer support, myself included. I couldn't imagine not being able to support my son with his education because of our current situation with covid. I want to help as much as I can, I will jump off the donation with $1000 in hopes some of you will join me. I want to help buy laptops or iPads or whatever is needed so our children can still thrive the best they can. 

All I can give you is my word, but I promise every single penny donated will be to help families who need it. Ive never personally created a Gofundme before and if its not something you want to contribute I completely understand,  I will still find a way to help these families myself. 

I thank you for taking a moment to read this <3

**update 

so far we have donated $2500 to this family in this picture and bought laptops for 3 young boys and school supplies for several families who need them!
