My name is Eliany, and I’m reaching out for help after my car was stolen on Christmas. While most families were opening presents, mine was standing in an empty driveway. Someone took our only car on Christmas morning. It’s hard to describe the feeling of having to tell your children that things are going to be different now. Between the frustration of the police report and the weight of our upcoming wedding in April, I feel like I’m drowning. We just want to get back on our feet.

This unexpected loss has left my family and me without any transportation, making it incredibly difficult to manage our daily lives. With our only car gone, we’re struggling to get our kids to school and for my husband to get to work, which is a 40-minute drive each way. The timing couldn’t have been worse, and it’s been overwhelming trying to figure out how to move forward.

We rely on our car for everything—school drop-offs, work, groceries, and all the little things that keep our family going. Without it, we’re facing challenges we never expected, and it’s been hard to see a way out. We’re hoping to raise enough funds to make a down payment on a new car so we can get back to our routines and provide stability for our kids. Every bit of support will help us take a step closer to rebuilding what we lost.

Anything helps, even just a prayer or a share. Thank you for seeing us in our time of need. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us, and we are truly grateful for any support you can give during this difficult time.
