Our community is coming together to support Tara and her two young boys after the sudden and heartbreaking passing of her husband. This loss has left their family devastated and facing emotional and financial challenges no one could have prepared for.
Tara is now navigating life as a single mother, working to provide stability, comfort, and security for her children while grieving the loss of her partner. Many friends, neighbors, and loved ones have asked how they can help — and this fundraiser is one way we can surround this family with the support they need.
Your donation will help with:
- Immediate living expenses
- Childcare and school-related needs
- Grief support resources for the boys
- Household costs during this transition
- Giving Tara space to heal without the added weight of financial stress
No contribution is too small. Every act of generosity — whether donating or sharing this page — makes a meaningful difference. Let’s show Tara and her boys that they are not alone, and that their community is here to lift them up during this incredibly difficult time.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support.
