Donation protected
Hey Community,
My name is Crystal and I recently met a woman who could use our help getting through an impossible moment.
Katrina Sanchez is a wonderful single mother of 5 awesome kids including 3 littles with autism. She works night shifts so she can be home during the day hours to support and take care of her special needs little ones.
On January 19th, 2024, Katrina was wrapping up work on the night shift when she found out her house was on fire. Luckily, all 5 of her children were able to evacuate to safety and even saved the family cat, however, they lost nearly everything they owned to the fire. You might have seen the story in the news.

Katrina, Isaiah (13), Jacob (12), Aanix (8), Blu (4) and Truly (4) were all of a sudden homeless without a single possession in the world and without family in town to come to the rescue.
Katrina and her kids have recently been relocated to an apartment for temporary shelter. Katrina has been working as much as possible, sometimes even 20 hour days, trying to financially rebound from this disaster. Everything for herself, her home and the 5 children needs to get replaced. Think about that: shoes, clothes, backpacks, toiletries, bedding and toys for all 5 children plus pots/pans, furniture, towels, cleaning supplies and so much more. It's an unbearable financial cost all during a time of great loss and difficulty to all involved.
Please join me in offering this sweet mother whatever you can to help lift the pressure of this moment. Every dollar will help.
