Support Katie and Nico After Losing Sandra

Hi, my name is Angela, and I’m raising funds for Katie Rayannic — a courageous, kindhearted woman with a disability who is facing unimaginable loss while trying to stay strong for her teenage son, Nico.

Katie’s world turned upside down when she lost her beloved mom, Sandra — her best friend, her caretaker, and the heart of their family. Sandra wasn’t just Katie’s rock — she was a devoted grandmother to Nico, and the three of them were incredibly close. Sandra absolutely adored Nico and lit up when he was around.

Now, as Katie grieves the loss of her mother, she’s also losing the family home. The house is being sold, and everything familiar and safe is slipping away. The one thing she desperately wants to hold onto is her mom’s car — a beautiful turquoise Chevy Trailblazer RS that Sandra proudly picked out and loved deeply.

But the car still has payments left, and Katie, on a fixed income and supporting Nico, can’t afford the balance on her own.

This car is more than just a vehicle — it’s a piece of Sandra’s spirit. It’s a symbol of the love, strength, and independence she passed on to her daughter and grandson.

This car is Katie’s lifeline:

It helps her get to medical appointments, care for her son, and stay connected to the world.

It holds memories of Sandra, who always made sure Katie and Nico were taken care of.

With their home being sold, the car is the last physical reminder of the life and love they shared.

We are asking for your help to raise enough money to pay off the car and help Katie and Nico stay on their feet during this incredibly difficult time. Every dollar brings them closer to stability, healing, and hope.

Even the smallest donation helps — and if you can’t give, please share this story to help us reach more hearts.

With deep gratitude,

Angela
