HELP US STAY IN THE UK
Donation protected
Me and my husband were married for 23 years and share 4 beautiful children, ages 6, 13, 16 & 20. For 4 years, we owned a prominent petrol/gas station in Hillsborough, North Carolina (USA), until it tragically caught fire in June, 2009. Our insurance company did not give us a fair payout. In December, 2007 we moved our family to Ghana, Africa to start up a new business and carry out missionary duties. After a series of extreme robberies, we decided to join my husband's side of the family in the United Kingdom to start a new life.
For the past 6 ½ years, the Home Office have denied our family the right to remain and work in the UK several times after arriving on a visitor’s visa. Because of our legal status in the UK, we are not entitled to ANY benefits (despite my son being born here), and have been dependant on food banks, our church, and the kindness of strangers.
Despite these barriers, our family have been heavily involved in our community here and play an instrumental role in various lives. Collectly, we have won several awards for the way we engage, volunteer and serve our community.
On the 14th of October, 2015 we had a tribunal hearing, but our case was immediately dismissed by the judge. We were left devastated, humiliated and depressed, to say the least.
A week later, (22nd of October, 2015) my husband passed away suddenly due to the stress of moving our family back to the States and the thought of his children's hopes and aspirations were shattered.
Me and my 4 children have been left devastated, destitute and hopeless. Our health is down. Our minds are overcrowded. We terribly miss our leader and provider. Kitoko was an extraordinary human being who was always giving, loving, and a true server to humanity. He was a father who loved his family unconditionally and invested time and love into us.
Our family are in serious, desperate need of help to raise money primarily for a new appeal, solicitor's fees, everyday living cost ,(food, utilities, housing, transportation, school lunches, medical bills, etc.) and money for a tombstone for Kitoko’s grave which is around £1,500. We would greatly appreciate any donations and will be sure to give back to humanity once we are back on our feet.
