Support Amber Simonson & Family

Donation protected
** Thank you for your generosity! We reached our preliminary goal, but support continues to pour in, so we’ve raised the goal. Your contributions are directly helping the Simonson family by easing the financial burden this devastating situation has left them with (lost wages from missed work, therapy bills, medical bills, home security upgrades, etc). The Simonson family does not wish to profit from this circumstance in any way - any funds in excess of their expenses/bills related to this traumatic event will be used to help others facing the healing process associated with sexual assault. Amber and her family are so thankful for you!**

On the afternoon of Sunday, July 22nd, Amber Simonson was home alone with her four children and was abducted by a monster while her children watched helplessly.  Amber then endured unthinkable acts of horror over the next several hours.  

Because this GoFundMe campaign is focusing on healing and support for Amber and her family, we are electing not to repost all of the details.  If you would like to read further details regarding this terrifying ordeal, feel free to search online regarding the "Fergus Falls Abduction".  All of the major news stations in the state have covered this story. 

Prior to Sunday, a tragedy such as this seemed unthinkable in our rural MN communities. It is safe to say we have been shaken to our core. As family, friends, and even those who don't know Amber but have been horrified by the details of this story, we find ourselves wanting to "help" in any way.  Unfortunately, aside from offering prayerful support for Amber and her family, there is little anyone can say or do to "help" in this terrible situation. We pray that TIME can heal some of these emotional and psychological wounds.  We can ALL help give this family more TIME to grieve and heal!

Your monetary donations (no matter how big or small) will be used to help the Simonson family cover lost wages from missed work, therapy bills, medical bills, home security upgrades, and other expenses.

Lets JOIN together and show the world that we will not sit idle and do nothing when one of our own has experienced the unthinkable. Thank you in advance for showing the Simonson family your prayerful and monetary support.  It is greatly appreciated. 

100% of the funds raised will be given to the Amber Simonson Family.
