Friends, family, compassionate strangers, we're reaching out to you with heavy hearts to support our dear friend and co-worker, Haley Parent. Hurricane Helene has devastated many lives, and our friend and her entire family were among those severely impacted. The floodwaters engulfed the entire bottom floor of their townhome, destroying their belongings. Haley has an 8-year-old daughter named Sully, along with a beloved dog and cat. They and most of their relatives are facing the daunting task of replacing essential items, including their washer and dryer, and countless other possessions that made their house a home. The road to recovery is long and uncertain, as they don't know when, or if, they'll be able to return to their home. We're asking for your help to support them during this challenging time. Your generous contributions will go directly toward helping them rebuild their lives—from securing temporary housing to replacing basic necessities. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant impact. Let's come together to lift up this family and show them that even in the darkest of times, they are not alone. Thank you for your kindness and generosity as we help her and her family recover.

I'm Haley's colleague, and I live in Atlanta. Although we've been working together for less than a year, I consider Haley a friend. She is a dedicated mother and has been a teacher for many years, helping children with special needs. As mentioned above, ALL funds will go directly to her to assist with housing, clothes, food, and rebuilding their lives after Hurricane Helene took their home and sense of security.
