My name is Rebecca Black, and I am a 72-year-old widow raising my two grandchildren, Evie (7) and her older brother (9), on my own. I have exhausted my life savings to provide for them and have not received any Supplemental Security Income (SSI) to date.

Evie requires specialized care to address childhood trauma. To help her heal and develop the skills needed to function successfully in society, she needs to attend a trauma-informed private placement school. The school, “My Father’s Arrows”, located in Jay, Florida, is dedicated to helping children who have experienced abuse, neglect, abandonment, or other traumatic experiences.

Evie is currently struggling with severe emotional challenges, including negative behaviors, rebellion, and attachment difficulties. The structured therapeutic environment at My Father’s Arrows will provide the essential support she needs to begin the process of neurological and emotional healing.

Unfortunately, the cost of this specialized treatment is beyond my means—$72,000 per year ($6,000 per month). I am reaching out for financial assistance to make this life-changing opportunity possible for my granddaughter. Any support you can provide will help ensure Evie receives the care she desperately needs.

Thank you for considering our situation and for any help you can offer on this journey to give Evie a chance at a better future.
