Help Tracy Derak Keep Her Home & Pay Utilities

Hi, I'm Tracy's mom and I'm raising money for her and her two children, ages 19 & 16. Tracy's partner, Bruce, & father of her children, suddenly passed away on September 30th, leaving his family in complete shock & grief. Apparently, there was no insurance on a second mortgage he had on the house. On top of all the expenses she was already struggling to pay for, Tracy is now faced with paying for mortgage and utilities, as well as her daughter's university expenses that aren't covered by student loans.

Tracy has always been a hard worker, often taking university classes & working part-time, while also raising two children, mostly on her own, because Bruce worked out of town for much of each year. Right now she has been working 2 jobs, while continuing to grieve, and trying to help their children get through this difficult time.

I have sadly watched from the sidelines as Tracy poured everything she had to give, into her children, and also her friends. She has such a big heart, often sacrificing her own health & finances for others.

Now it's time for all of us who know & love her to step up and help "her". I realize the magnitude of her needs are beyond what I can provide, and she, admirably, does not wish to ask for help. This is why I am now asking for your support to help Tracy get through the coming months, until she can make some changes and tough decisions that will allow her to try to become independent, and be able to support herself and their children. Any amount you can afford to give, will be greatly appreciated.
