For the past 6 months, Berkeley devoted her life to caring for her grandmother — a role she took on with immense love and strength, despite facing her own challenges with disability. She became her grandmother’s full-time caregiver, ensuring she was never alone and always cared for with dignity. Berkeley’s commitment meant putting her own needs aside, and she faced each day with compassion and resilience, even when things were tough.
Now, after her grandmother’s passing, Berkeley is left not only grieving a profound loss but also facing significant financial strain. The costs of funeral arrangements, cremation, and managing her grandmother’s estate are more than she can handle alone. On top of this, Berkeley must find new housing, as her caregiving role was tied to her grandmother’s home. The transition is overwhelming, and she needs support to cover immediate expenses and secure a safe place to live.
We are reaching out to ask for support during this incredibly difficult time. Your donation will help cover funeral expenses and provide stability as Berkeley begins to rebuild after this loss. Thank you for showing up with compassion and generosity. Even sharing this fundraiser can make a meaningful difference.
