I am a hardworking, loving, kind single mom. Life is not easy for me right now. I am trying to get my children and I to my son’s boot camp graduation in Great Lakes, Illinois. Graduation is the day before Thanksgiving and prices on flights are even more expensive due to the Holiday. Please help me support and congratulate my United States Navy Sailor.

I have been divorced 8 years and I am raising my four children alone with no child support from their father. I work a full time job for a credit union, and I love my job. I am a survivor of domestic abuse and I continue to do my absolute best to bringing up four, kind, loving, respectful, responsible, smart human beings. The cost of living is extremely ridiculous. I struggle on all my credit obligations and just need a break from all the hardships I am juggling.

My children are always helping the community by volunteering in city events, they play AYSO soccer, and are in the high school band. My children are my everything and I work hard for them. I want their future to be a great one.

My son has been working so hard for the Navy boot camp and is so proud to serve our country. I can’t wait to hug him, tell him I love him and tell him how much he makes me proud.

Thank you for your love and support and for reading my story.

Sincerely,

One Proud Mom
