PENNIES FOR PENNY - FAMILIES HELPING FAMILIES

Shortly after we lost our daughter Penny in a tragic accident, a friend started a fundraiser that she titled "Pennies for Penny" to assist us in paying for funeral expenses. The generosity that poured in touched us so deeply and that gratitude hasn't faded. Today, Pennies for Penny lives on to help other families in need of financial help in the darkest hours of their lives. In the past four years, it's eased hardship of three different children with cancer, a family with a mother suffering from cancer, families who have lost children, and even a headstone for a child. Through your donations, you "showed up" for these families, as others did for our own.

This year we've become aware of one family that has done so much for their community and others. Sadly, the father abandoned the family in October following drug use and mental illness. The mother is left to care for her children alone with a huge financial mess left in the wake of her husband's selfish neglect. To protect her children we cannot share many more details, but we notice her, we love her, and Pennies for Penny would like to HELP her and her beautiful children.

All proceeds in this account will go towards helping this family. As you can see they are very much in need. The financial burden in front of them is heavy. Thank you for recognizing, seeing the need and donating.

So, we have temporarily reinstated THE PENNY STORE and all proceeds will also go to help this family in need. Please check it out here: www.thepennystore.org
