Val & Kids go back to St Henri!

Donation protected
The Bad news: Me and my 3 kids are getting renovicted from our home of several years in Point St Charles and the landlord is refusing to pay for moving expenses. I'm going to take her to the Regie but the hearing won't likely be until next year. This is the second time in 6 years that my kids and I have been renovicted.

The Good news: We have been accepted to a co-op in St Henri! Finally some secure housing for my family.

The Challenge: We have to move into the Co-op for December 1st.
I have a quote from Bust-a-Move for $1060 but without my landlord's compensation I don't think I can afford professional movers on top of all the other moving expenses - including purchasing appliances - without some help!

The Fun Stuff: With every $30 donation, I'll send you a super-cool-hand-painted-papier-mache ornament made by me You can pick you favorite: Expos hat, bagel, rainbow, drumstick, orange cone or piece of pie. I will mail them out December 7th so you have them for the holidays!
You can check out the selection here: https://www.instagram.com/val.brooke/

With your support I will be able to pay for professional movers! I currently live on a 3rd floor with one of those "charming" outdoor spiral staircases  - enough said?

Thank you so much in advance.

Yours truly,

Valerie
