Support Teresa After Her Mother’s Passing

Donation protected
I am reaching out to ask for help for my dear friend Teresa. Teresa has spent the past year caring for her mother, Sylvia, who is now in hospice after a long battle with cancer. While working tirelessly as a house cleaner, Teresa has also been raising her 10-year-old daughter, Serenity, and supporting her family through a series of heartbreaking losses. Just last September, Teresa’s brother and Sylvia’s son passed away suddenly, leaving the family to cope with even more grief. Throughout Sylvia’s illness, Teresa has brought her mom to work with her, unable to leave her alone, and has done everything possible to keep her family together during this incredibly difficult time.

Teresa is a very dear friend to me, and I can say she has a heart of gold. Her faith in God is the only thing keeping her going through these challenges. Now, as Sylvia nears the end of her life, Teresa is facing overwhelming financial stress. She is struggling to cover basic bills like rent, car payments, and groceries, while also trying to provide summer camp for Serenity so she can continue working. The cost of Sylvia’s cremation weighs heavily on Teresa, and her greatest fear is not being able to honor her mother’s wishes or keep her ashes. More than anything, Teresa wants to spend these final moments with her mom and be there for her daughter, without the constant worry of making ends meet.

Funds raised will help Teresa cover the cost of Sylvia’s cremation, pay essential bills, and allow her and Serenity to take time to grieve and heal together. Your support will give Teresa the chance to be present with her family during this tragedy and help them find some peace in the midst of loss.
