Our Family Needs a Helping Hand

Donation protected
Our story starts a year ago. Things were going great in our lives! Then we hit a stroke of bad luck. I was in a terrible car accident totalling my car. This was the first car I actually got to pick out and was excited for.  This was also the first accident I had ever been in, and was very scary. After finally healing and being back to somewhat normal, I returned to work. When I returned, I learned that our school was closing and my job would be eliminated right after Christmas. This was the career I had found to be what I truly wanted. After loosing my job and car that I had worked so hard for, I then started to have more health problems including endometriosis. After learning that my condition was back, my partner of 10 years decided to leave our family. I was a stay at home mom recovering from an almost fatal accident when this happened. I had no steady income other than his. For most of the 10 years I worked and made enough to support our family. Shortly after he left, the bills were no longer being paid and I couldn't find a job. I found a great job at GoDaddy eventually. I started to get back on my feet. But then things started to get ugly again with domestic violence issues and the stuggle continues. For the last two years I have been trying to save to move into a house for my boys. They are 9 and 2. I just want them to have a place where they can call home and feel safe. Somewhere that we can build memories again together and be a happy family. The funds would be used for a deposit on a home and the cost of a uhaul. I want to move as soon as possible into a home. The support would mean so much to us! We have been trying so hard to get assistance and resources but are being turned away. Anything helps. My boys would be eternally grateful to know they have a yard and safe home to play in. Thank you in advance for your support!
