I want to thank everyone that has donated to Evelyn's Journey Home back to Missouri. Our goal is now in reach and we can safely say that we only need $1,000 more dollars to get her back home. If it weren't for friends, family and total strangers that donated, I would have been totally devastated. Thank you and I known we can reach this goal by this weekend. LOVE TO ALL! I know Ms E is smiling from heaven ☺️
