Wheels for Hope: A Family’s Road to Independence

Help Us Regain Independence and Show My Wife the Support She Deserves

Imagine waking up every day carrying the weight of a family’s hopes, dreams, and struggles while never faltering or letting it show. That’s my wife—a loving, strong, and selfless woman who has carried our family through thick and thin. She’s a dedicated mother to our son, a caring wife helping me manage the challenges of visual impairment and complications from Sickle Cell disease, and a tireless worker holding down a 50-hour week to keep our family afloat.

Yet, life has added more weight to her shoulders. Our only vehicle, a 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor, broke down on June 27, 2024, requiring a new engine and critical repairs, totaling $6,000. Without this car, she’s been forced to juggle rides with friends, Ubers, and walking long distances, stretching our already tight budget to its breaking point. She relies on this car to bring stability to our family—taking our son to school, managing daily errands, and commuting to work. Without it, we’re losing not just a car, but our family’s independence.

Why Your Support Matters:

She’s the glue holding us together, bearing every hardship with resilience and love. Now, we need help to relieve some of the crushing weight she carries. With your support, we can restore our family’s independence and give her the chance to take a breath. A donation—no matter the size—could be the spark that helps us move forward.

**Cost Breakdown:**

- **Replacement Engine:** $2,500 – Essential for the vehicle to run again.

- **Engine Components:** $1,500 – Key parts for the repair.

- **Labor Costs:** $1,200 – Mechanic fees to ensure a safe, reliable fix.

- **Body and Glass Repairs:** $800 – Necessary work to ensure safety.

**Total Goal:** $6,000

Your generosity could be the lifeline that helps us rebuild our lives. Each contribution brings us one step closer to getting her back on the road and to lifting some of the burden she carries every day. Thank you, from the depths of our hearts, for considering our family and for helping us on this journey to regain independence.
