A Mom Making It Happen

Donation protected
Update: Thank you to everyone that has donated ! It means so so much to me. I am allowed to pay 2,933 and that is now my goal !



Hey guys. My name is Shania and I am a single mom of two. This is honestly so gut-wrenching to have to do this. Let me just be honest, I was. never ready to be a mom, both times. From pregnant and homeless to now living in North Carolina, God has kept my little family afloat, as he promised. I have struggled with severe postpartum depression after having my second son. Job to job and nothing has been working. Being a mother is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. TEACHING myself to be a mom has been 2nd. My friends have watched me be depressed and still figure it out. I will show up for others and now I need y'all. That was hard to say but here we go! I felt sharing this hardship would show the world I am failing as a mother but I am not. Honestly I am right where I prayed to be years ago: being who God called me to be , healing, releasing shame and guilt, and this includes motherhood .
Thank you to my friends and my moms that have been so supportive ! I appreciate all the support. Please share ! 2020, I started a business. This is God's business. Showing others that despite your mental health, you can still become who God has called you to be. Before children, I struggled with anxiety and depression and that came from losing my parents and other traumatic events. God has been using me to show others that you can and will make it. God has kept me. My last day of work was April 28, 2023. I have been focusing on the business God gave me. I started doing my mental health events again, instacarting, hustling and doing what I can for my kids and me. My last event was June 30 and on June 29 my brakes gave out and I hit someone's car. I have not been instacarting or doing much because of this. This GoFund is to help me catch up and stay afloat as I continue to follow God's plan for my life and my children's life. I know when the calling on your life is great, so are the attacks.

As of right now, I am not sure how much it will be to get my car out of the shop but below is how much I need now and for what:
To avoid eviction my, rent owed is 3,432
Energy (Duke) 239.19
Gas (Dominion) 252.80 Someone reached out and PAID !!!! Thank you so much !
Water 280.39
School (Capella University Masters Program Clinical Psychology)
2,500 I will get my degree !

Total is 6,704.38

Thank you for whatever you can donate. God has a plan and I have never been so sure in my life.
