<div><strong>March 2026 UPDATE: </strong>Help Carly Create a Stable Future for Her Little Boy
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A huge thank you to everyone who has donated and shared so far – your support has been overwhelming and deeply appreciated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At this stage, the court proceedings are still ongoing and are expected to continue for the next few months until a mandate is in place. Unfortunately, Carly cannot access Legal Aid due to capacity issues, and the financial strain of continuing this fight is growing heavier.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’re able to donate or share this page, it would make an enormous difference in helping her cover ongoing legal costs. Thank you for standing with her and for every bit of support so far.

<div>Carly is an incredible mum living in the heart of the Mount Beauty community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She finds beauty in everyday moments, growing veggies in the backyard, baking cakes on rainy afternoons, and setting up tents under the stars so her four year-old can fall asleep to the sounds of nature.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Her world revolves around her son. Every choice she makes is driven by love, stability, and the hope of giving him the safest, happiest childhood possible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But right now, Carly is facing a challenge no parent should have to face alone.
</div>
<div>Due to unforeseen circumstances, she’s in the middle of a difficult custody process that has become both emotionally and financially overwhelming.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite her strength and determination, the cost of legal representation is mounting, and she simply can’t carry it on her own.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How you can help:
</div>
<div>All funds raised will go directly toward legal fees and related costs, helping Carly secure fair representation and continue building the stable, nurturing life her little boy deserves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Carly’s only wish is simple: to raise her son surrounded by love, safety, and community. Every contribution, no matter how small, helps bring her closer to that goal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your kindness, generosity, and willingness to share her story mean more than words can say.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page so Carly’s story can reach others who may be able to help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts, thank you from Carly's Community and friends. x
