Replace Our Stolen Car

Thank you for your interest in helping us. We are Natalie and Alan Rouse, and we are raising money on behalf of our daughter Miranda. On June 27, 2022, her car was stolen by a known felon who later led police in a chase that ended when he wrecked the car and killed a law enforcement officer.

 

We have since been notified by our insurance company that our claim has been rejected. Used cars are at an all-time high and we do not have the means to replace the stolen car. Unfortunately, Miranda must have a car for work and school. This is where you can help! Any amount that you can give would be such a blessing to our family. We thank you in advance from the bottom of our hearts!

More About Miranda

 

Miranda is a 19-year-old student at the University of Montevallo. Miranda graduated in 2021 from Calera High School with a 3.4 GPA and received a partial academic scholarship to the University of Montevallo. She also works part-time as a delivery driver for Papa John’s Pizza in Calera, AL, to help pay her tuition. Miranda does all of this while living with Tourette’s Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder, a heart condition, depression, and PTSD. These things make everything Miranda does a challenge that most of us will never know. She is an amazing young adult that has such a big heart and plans to become a Mental Health Social Worker.

 

About the Car

 

Miranda’s car was a 2008 Toyota Corolla LE, that her mom bought new in 2007. Her mom took very good care of the car and paid for it in full, with the intention of being able to give it to Miranda on her 16th birthday, which she did. The Kelly Blue Book Value is $4,574.
