Title: Help Me & My Son Start Over After an Unfair Sentence

Story:
Hi, my name is Chelsey. I’m a 23-year-old mother doing everything I can to protect and care for my 4-year-old son, Oliver. We’ve faced challenges that most people cannot imagine — from surviving domestic abuse to navigating life as a young single mom without much support.  I lost my mom to terminal cancer last year.

Now, Oliver and I are facing the very real challenge of starting over with very limited resources, no family nearby, and nowhere to go. I am overwhelmed but focused on keeping my son safe and building a better life for us.


Every dollar raised will go toward: • Moving expenses (deposit, first month’s rent) • Transportation and gas • Essential needs like food, diapers, and clothing for Oliver • Probation-related fees and fines to avoid any violations This is not a handout — it’s a lifeline.

I’m doing everything possible to follow the law, provide for my son, and rebuild our lives despite these difficult circumstances.

If you’ve ever felt let down by the system, or if you’re a parent who would do anything to protect your child, I hope you’ll consider supporting us. If you’re unable to donate, sharing our story would mean the world to us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Chelsey & Oliver
