Medical Bills & Reliable Car for My Sister and Her Son

Our Story
On 12/3/25, my sister Julianna was in an accident, totaled her vehicle, and sent her to the hospital with injuries that are still being treated/recovered from. As her older brother, I'm reaching out to my community because Julianna needs help getting back on her feet quickly, and she deserves it.

Who is Julianna?
Julianna is one of the strongest people I know. As a single mother, she's dedicated the last 7 years to providing for her son and building a healthy future for them both. Right now, she's working multiple jobs and living with me in Orlando while she saves up to move into a place of her own with her son.

She's the kind of person who never asks for help, but constantly helps and gives selflessly to others. But this accident has thrown a wrench into everything she's been working toward, and it's devastating to watch someone I love face a setback like this.

What Happened
The accident totaled Julianna's car. Because she was stretching every dollar to save for her and her son's next steps, she only carried minimal auto insurance coverage.
She doesn't have medical insurance either, so that’s an additional layer we will work through in the coming weeks.
This feels like a difficult blow when she was finally making progress toward independence.

A Message from Caleb (Her Brother):
I'm not the type to ask for help, and neither is Julianna. But I'm watching my younger sister, who has worked so incredibly hard to build a better life for her son, struggle with something very heavy.

She doesn't deserve this setback. Her son doesn't deserve the uncertainty. And I know there are good people out there who understand that sometimes, hardworking people just need a hand up.

If you've ever faced an unexpected crisis that threatened everything you'd worked for, you know how this feels. If you've ever been blessed enough to help someone in need, this is one of those moments.

I'm humbly asking for your help to get my sister back on her feet. Whether it's $5, $50, or $500, or simply sharing this campaign, your support will make a real difference in their lives.

What We're Raising Money For
We've done our best to break down what Julianna needs to get back on track:

Reliable used vehicle: estimated $5,000-$6,000 (something safe and dependable to get her son to school and get to work)
Outstanding medical bills: estimated $3,500 - $5,000 (hospital visits and ongoing treatments and possible physical therapy)
Any overages will go directly toward income replacement for the work she missed during her down time, and secondly to the apartment fund: To help her reach her goal of independence sooner.

Total Goal: $10,000+

Every dollar will go directly toward getting Julianna mobile again and covering all the auto-related expenses, and medical expenses.

Why This Matters
This isn't just about replacing a car. It's about making sure a hardworking single mom can continue providing for her child and moving forward instead of falling behind.

How You Can Help
1. Donate any amount you can
Any amount, no matter how small, brings us closer to the goal

Updates & Transparency
I will post regular updates on:

-You'll see exactly where every dollar goes because your generosity deserves that transparency.

Thank you for taking the time to read Julianna's story. Thank you for caring about a hardworking single mom who just needs a chance to get back on track. And thank you, in advance, for whatever support you can offer, whether financial, through sharing, or through prayer.

God bless you all.
