My name is Jess, and I’m a mom to three amazing kids — Raelyn, Chance, and Bryson. They’re my whole world, and everything I do is for them.

Right now, life has us in a really tough place. My kids are staying with family while I try to get stable again. It’s just me and my dog, Molly, living out of my car — except the car isn’t even running. It needs repairs, new tires, and I don’t have registration or insurance on it. Without that, I can’t get to work, run errands, or bring my kids back home with me.

As the weather turns colder here in Wisconsin, I feel the pressure of time slipping away. Fall is already here, and winter is right around the corner. I’m scared of what it will mean if I don’t get the car fixed and find us a safe home before the snow starts falling.

The money from this fundraiser will go directly toward:

Car repairs and new tires

Registration and insurance so I can legally drive again

Securing housing before winter so I can bring my kids home

I’ve always been someone who takes care of others, both as a CNA and as a mom. Asking for help isn’t easy for me, but right now, I don’t have another option. Any donation, no matter how small, will bring me closer to getting back on my feet and reuniting my kids with me in a safe, warm home.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for supporting us through this.

With love,

Jess, Molly & Family
