Update:

Thank you to all who have shared/donated and reached out with support!! It honestly means so much. Anything helps and it is going to be a long road ahead of us so I’d appreciate if you can keep sharing this link! We still need help with moving costs to get the rest of Zander’s belongings from Florida. I want to make this feel like home to him as much as possible so please think about helping this boy get the rest of his things. ❤️

Hi, my name is Melanie and I’m starting this GoFundMe for my 8 year old brother who just recently lost his father (my step dad). We lost our mother 7 years ago so I am currently in the process of getting custody of Zander. This all happened so suddenly and we are all devastated, so anything would help us. If you’re unable to donate any money, we also really need clothes or any furniture you’d be willing to donate! He does wear a size 9 in clothing and size 1.5Y in shoes. We still need to move all of his belongings from Florida to Wisconsin and help with any legal fees so I appreciate anything anyone can help with! ❤️ please keep Zander in your thoughts/prayers, he’s been through so much in his life, way more than any child should have to deal with at such a young age.
