On April 25, Claudia was involved in a serious car accident that left her with significant physical and neurological injuries. Since the accident, she has been focused entirely on healing and following her medical team’s recommendations for recovery.

Unfortunately, her injuries have also made it impossible for her to continue working as an independent contractor during this time. Like many self-employed people, when work stops, income stops too.

I’m organizing this fundraiser to help bridge the gap while Claudia recovers. Our goal is to raise $9,000 to help cover essential living expenses over the next three months, including rent, utilities, household necessities, pet care, and other basic expenses that will allow her to focus on healing rather than financial stress.

Anyone who knows Claudia knows her resilience, kindness, and determination. Right now, she is facing a difficult chapter and could use the support of her community.

Every contribution, no matter the amount, will go directly toward helping Claudia maintain stability while she recovers and works toward returning to work.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser is also a meaningful way to help.

Thank you for supporting Claudia during her recovery journey. She is one of my best friends and we appreciate any support you can lend at this time!
