I am a mom with five amazing children under the age of 17 .

It is difficult to put into words the details of our story.

I am alone to support and care for my children . I desire to do all that I am able to do to take care of them well.

Very recently, during one of my sleepless nights I decided to reach out through this fundraiser. I felt very desperate. It wasn’t easy to be so vulnerable and post for others to see !

But I have been so consumed by fears , insecurity and worry for too long now. I am not present for my children like I want to be and as they need me to be

I am currently working two part-time jobs. I am also learning a new skill so I can work at a job that doesn’t just pay minimum wages.

I’m seeking some financial help so that I can cover two-to three months' mortgage payments and perhaps our utility bill.

I have been extremely stressed over my situation, and it has been difficult to create any balance and stability for my children and myself. I want and need to be present for my children while I am with them instead of being consumed with worry about how we will survive.

I so much want to take good care of my family. I believe with some financial help, I could pull out of the crisis that my family is facing.

Thank you for reading our story
