Andrew and Lara Pilcher

We’re still very much in the middle of this, but there has been an important step forward: Andrew has accepted a new job and has been granted an emergency visa appointment in Melbourne next week. The crisis hasn’t ended with the job offer. We’re still carrying both the financial impact of this sudden loss of employment and the significant costs of urgent immigration processing, expedited fees, and required travel to Australia for visa appointments. The support we’ve received is genuinely carrying us through this gap, and we are deeply grateful. That support is still making a very real difference as we work through these remaining steps. ❤️

More than halfway ❤️ In just a few days, more than half of our $12,000 goal has been raised, and we are honestly overwhelmed by the kindness people have shown our family. So many of you have donated, shared this with your own communities, prayed for us, and reached out. Thank you. ❤️ Andrew is continuing to move forward with interviews, and we’re working through the immigration steps ahead. If you’d like to keep helping, sharing the fundraiser with your own community means so much to us. Thank you for standing with our family through this.
