Single Mom of 4 Lost Everything in Tornado – Please Help Us Rebuild

Story:

Hi, my name is Carmen Watson From St. Louis, MO and I’m a single mother of four beautiful children. I’ve always done my best to keep things together for my kids, no matter how hard life gets. But on Friday, a tornado hit our area, and a large tree came crashing down and completely destroyed my car—our only transportation.

This car was how I got to work, got my kids to school, made it to doctor appointments, and ran everyday errands. Now we’re stuck. I’m heartbroken, overwhelmed, and honestly scared. I don’t have the money to replace what we lost, and I have no family support or safety net to fall back on.

People around me have encouraged me to start this GoFundMe, and while it’s hard to ask for help, I know I can’t do this alone. I’m asking for anything you can give—whether it’s $5, $50, or simply sharing this with someone who might be able to help. Every single bit matters right now.

The funds raised will go toward:
• Replacing our car or securing reliable transportation
• Temporary transportation (rides, gas money, etc.)
• Emergency household needs and support for my children

I’m just trying to keep my kids safe and stable. Thank you so much for reading, sharing, donating, or even just praying for us. I believe that even in the middle of a storm, good people can still come together and help each other.

With love and gratitude,
Carmen Watson
