Support Ella & Mom After Trauma

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Ella, and I’m reaching out with a heavy heart and deep hope. My mom, Andrea, and I are in the midst of the most difficult chapter of our lives. We never imagined we’d be here, struggling to keep a roof over our heads and fighting to survive day by day. But here we are, and we need your help.

For years, we lived under the roof of someone who was supposed to protect us my stepfather. Instead, he betrayed and violated that trust in the most devastating way. I was sexually harassed by him, and the trauma of that experience is something I carry every day. Speaking up came with a cost. He was the sole financial provider in our home, and when the truth came out, he left and so did our financial stability.

Since then, my mom and I have been scraping by. She’s my rock, and we’re doing everything we can to survive and keep our happiness but We’ve turned to Grubhub deliveries just to afford the bare minimum: food, basic hygiene products, and to keep our phones on so we can continue working. Despite our efforts, we are now facing eviction, with no clear place to go next.

Why We Need Help:
We are not just asking for charity. We are asking for a lifeline. We need immediate support to:
• Avoid eviction and stay in our home
• Afford food, gas, and hygiene essentials
• Begin healing from the trauma we’ve experienced
• Work toward a more stable and safe future

Every dollar every share helps more than you can imagine. Your support would mean the world to us, not just financially but emotionally, as we try to rebuild a life that’s been torn apart.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story. If you’re able to donate or share this page, you are making a direct impact on our lives and giving us hope in a time when we need it most.

With love and gratitude,
Ella & Andrea
