Rachelle is a kind, strong woman who has always taken care of herself, but this past year has brought more challenges than anyone should have to face alone. She cares deeply for animals and the kind humans around her. Over the years she’s mentored youth and visited nursing homes and hospice, now with her certified rescue dog André the Giant. Her favorite work is with animals , often going out of her way to provide food, healing, shelter, and warmth to those in need. Now, she’s the one who needs a helping hand. Recent severe weather caused significant damage to her roof, and the repairs are far beyond what she can afford on her own. Her home isn’t just her sanctuary — it's also a safe haven for the animals she loves so dearly.

Over the past year, she has faced:

Serious health problems that have impacted her ability to work and function normally.

The heartbreaking loss of her father, which has taken an emotional and financial toll.

And now, her roof is leaking and deteriorating, and has major damage putting her safety and home at risk.


She is currently trying to find different programs that she might qualify for but the reality is she needs more help. So we’re reaching out to friends, family, and anyone willing to help with the goal of raising funds to cover the cost of roof repairs and stabilize her living situation.

No amount is too small, and every dollar will go directly toward:

Roof repair materials and labor

Emergency home maintenance related to water damage


Even if you can’t give financially, your love and support mean the world to Rachelle. She understands that deeply — because she’s been in that place herself. A kind word, a hug, or simply sharing her story is a gift she holds close to her heart.
