Friends,

My name is Lauren.

I’m reaching out to ask for help for my very close friend, Nichole, and her daughter as they cope with the sudden and unexpected loss of her child’s father. His passing has left them devastated, and with the ongoing government shutdown, it’s been incredibly difficult for my friend, a hardworking single mother and dedicated nurse, to cover the costs of his end-of-life arrangements while also keeping up with daily living expenses.

We want to give her daughter’s father the respectful farewell he deserves, but we can’t do it alone. Any contribution, no matter how big or small, will mean the world to this family and help ease the heavy financial and emotional burden they’re facing with funeral arrangements and living expenses.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, generosity, and support during this difficult time.
