When Spirit Airlines shut its doors overnight, 17,000 of us lost our jobs instantly. No severance. No final paychecks. No transition support. Just a sudden end to the company we helped build, and thousands of families left wondering how we’re going to make it through the next few months.

Hello, my name is Steven , and i am one of the 17,000 employees affected by the sudden shutdown. Like so many others, we haven’t been sleeping. We’re all asking the same questions: How do we pay rent/mortgage? How do we cover our bills? How do we take care of our families while competing with thousands of former coworkers for the same jobs?

That’s why we created “The We’ve Got You Fund", not just for outselfs, but for the people who are facing the exact same crisis. Our initial goal of $150,000 will allow us to support at employees of essential expenses. If this fund grows beyond that first milestone, we will expand support to as many affected employees as possible. The need is huge; 17,000 people were impacted, but even helping one family at a time makes a real difference. Thousands of us dedicated years to this airline, and now we’re all trying to stay afloat at the same time.

This fund is about community. It’s about stepping up when no one else is stepping in. It’s about giving families a little breathing room during one of the hardest moments of their lives.

If you can donate, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

If you can share this, it truly makes a difference.

We built this airline together. Now we support each other.
