Support the Riley-Hill Family in Crisis

Donation protected

Hello, we are the Riley-Hill family. Due some unfortunate and unforeseen developments in our life. Things have gotten very rough. We have some urgent items we need to pay and so we are asking for any help anyone can manage in this time, even if it's just sharing. We need a total of 7k to take care of everything but even just 200 in the end will help.


We are hoping to get Depost and First months rent for a safe place for our son so we can get back on pur feet. But we also need to;


Fix up our vehicle and get it into better working condition.

  • (This was Donated!) Alternator runs about 200 to 300.
  • (This was Donated!) The tool to change it ourselves is 80 to 100.
  • We need a deep oil change 80 to 120 dollars.
  • Four new tires run 200.
  • 300 for insurance and registration.

Alternatively we may instead use 1500 to 2k on a down payment for a new vehicle.


A safe dry place to stay while we take care of everything. As we currently use our vehicle to sleep in.


Help pay the small amount of bills we do have.

With the explanation on how funds will be used out of the way. Let me explain a bit more about us.


We are a family of a Mother, Father, and Disabled son of seven. We have used many programs in the past years to help us get onto our feet. Many of which have strict time lengths of help or a limit on how many times we can be in their main programs. And they did work! They helped and we managed to be able to provide and take care of everything we needed. Successfully graduating from these programs, while still using others to help when money was tight. Since then Serina (the mother) got and lost a good paying job, while Joshua (the father) maintained a steady job as a server until recently and now works in retail. We lost our phones due to being unable to pay the bill (we swollowed our pride and got government phones), and now the truck is having serious electrical problems.


We would love to say we are handling them instride, but this time of year (the holidays) just hasn't been all that good of memories for ourselves. We are stressed out, coiled like cats, depressed, and have a hyper ball of energy for a son. Our son, Robert, is a nonverbal autistic curious but always happy little guy. He likes dinosaurs, cars, and plushies. But he struggles to potty train so we have to keep a constant supply of wipes and pull ups.


We know things are rough for everyone. So even if you are unable to give anything, we just ask you share to the best of your ability. Because there are many many people in the world and all it takes is to come across the right set of eyes. Have a great day/night.


(If you'd like to help with non-monetary donations or just don't like a middle man. Feel free to reach out to us. We'll be glad to figure something out.)
