My dear friend Shanna and her daughter are facing a loss that no family should ever have to endure. This tragedy has left them not only grieving, but also in need of support as they navigate the emotional and practical challenges ahead.

Many friends and family have reached out, asking how they can help. One of the most important needs right now is access to long-term therapy for both Shanna and her daughter, so they can begin to heal and find strength in the months to come. Additionally, there are significant travel expenses for family members who want to be present for the funeral and offer comfort during this time. The family is also facing legal fees and may require temporary relocation for Shanna and her daughter to ensure their well-being.

The kindness of everyone who has asked how to help is a true comfort during this difficult time. Every message, gesture, and offer of support has meant so much to Shanna and her daughter. Their community’s compassion has helped them feel less alone as they face the days ahead. Thank you in advance for your generosity and support.
