<div>Help a Mother Stay by Her 9-Year-Old Daughter’s Side
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Francesto Villamizar, and I’m writing this not just as a landlord, but as someone who has come to deeply care about a family going through the unimaginable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>One of my tenants, Chira Childs, is the devoted mother of Jalayah Lamira Covington, a bright and beautiful 9-year-old girl who has been courageously battling Stage 4 Signet Ring Adenocarcinoma — a rare and aggressive form of cancer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite every effort, treatment, and prayer, the disease has progressed, and Jalayah is now in hospice care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A Mother’s Heartbreaking Journey
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Chira has been by her daughter’s side every step of the way — sacrificing work, sleep, and financial stability to ensure Jalayah is never alone. As you can imagine, the emotional toll is unbearable. The financial burden is overwhelming.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With rent, utilities, and daily expenses piling up, Chira is facing the terrifying reality of not being able to keep a roof over their heads while trying to give her daughter as much love and peace as possible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why We’re Asking for Your Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m reaching out to anyone who can open their heart to help this mother stay present with her little girl — without the crushing weight of bills threatening to pull her away.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donation will help:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cover past-due rent and upcoming housing costs, ensuring stability during this critical time
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pay for utilities, groceries, and basic living expenses
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Give Chira the space to care for Jalayah without fear of losing her home
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every Moment Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No parent should have to choose between financial survival and being there for their child. If you’re able, please donate — even the smallest gift helps. And if you can’t give, please share this campaign with your friends, family, and community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s surround this family with love, compassion, and support in this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With deepest gratitude,
</div>
<div>Francesto Villamizar
