Support Ellen and Her Kids After Hurricane Helene

Donation protected
Hello! My name is ChristiAnne. I am creating this GoFundMe on behalf of Ellen.

I’m reaching out during one of the hardest times of my best friends life. Ellen is a single mother of three wonderful kids, and they live in Asheville, North Carolina. She work as a waitress and host an Airbnb to make ends meet, but unfortunately, they been devastated by Hurricane Helene.

The hurricane has not only displaced them from their home, but it's also made it impossible for her to work. Tourism, which fuels her income, has completely stopped until the city is restored. Without these jobs, she has no way to provide for her children or cover the basic expenses that come with rebuilding their lives.

She is trying to stay strong for her kids, but the uncertainty is overwhelming. She needs funds for temporary housing, food, clothing, and eventually, to repair or replace what they have lost. Any help—whether it’s a donation or sharing this fundraiser—will make a world of difference for them as they begin this long journey to recovery.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support and kindness. Every bit helps and brings them one step closer to stability.
