This is incredibly hard to write, but after exhausting other options, I’ve realized I need to reach out for support for a dear friend, fellow Girl Scout, GSRP teacher, hero, and so much more.

Due to some recent, unexpected expenses from lingering family medical issues, the bills are growing, and the stress is starting to take a toll.

Melanie and Chris always tried to manage things on their own, but right now, they could really use some help. They are the first to help others with whatever the need. Every contribution — no matter how small — will go directly toward covering their essential costs to help them.

Thank you for reading this, and for any support — whether financial or simply by sharing this with others. Your kindness truly means the world.
