Help Christina & Justin
Donation protected
This is Christina and her (10) year old son Justin who has severe diabetes and extreme food allergies. Justin is also a great baseball player!
Christina is a Para-Educator for Chandler Unified School District in Chandler, Arizona. She is an amazing mother, teacher and friend.
Christina is a newly single mother of Justin and her son Ryan (22) who has special needs. Ryan works part-time at Harkins Theaters and is really into movies. Christina works full time and is in the middle of her Teaching Credential Program at an NAU satelite. She will graduate in December of 2016 and hopes to work with children of special needs (severe). However, will have lots of student loans. We are working on a grant to help with with those.
This past month, her car broke down and the repairs are more than $1100. However, the mechanic said that once those repairs take place, many more will follow. She was sold a used lemon and really taken advantage of. It just keeps getting worse!
To top it off, dad (who had an affair and left Christina penniless) is refusing to help and Christina was forced to file paperwork with no legal counsel. She can't afford an attorney.
Para-educators do not make a whole lot and she has now lost her rental. She and the boys will be living with friends until they can catch up.
It just seems like every time this family tries to pick themselves up, something else happens to them. They are lucky that they have medical help, but could use help with rent, gas (once the car gets fixed), utilities, food and ultimately an apartment. I'd also like to make sure Justin has back to school clothes and school supplies. He needs a new backpack.
We help as much as we can but know that there are others out there that have been in similar situations and came out better....I know we have. And, we want to pay it forward. I
So, if you are so led, please consider helping this amazing selfless family that has given so much to others when they could.
Thank you in advance and God Bless!
