Determined Danielle, single mom in desperate need

Donation protected

Picture this: 
Single mother of 2, struggling to make ends meet to care for her children.  She works 3 gig jobs on and off all day from 10am to 2am, bringing her kids along most of the time. The kids father is an addict and became incarcerated 8 months ago, her mom has passed away, everyone she knows has so many things going on that her village is very small. So she is making all the decisions. Shes taking care of all the little and big thing that comes her way, all the time. Not to mention her son has level 3 Autistic Spectrum disorder which is the most severe type of autism. This requires extensive support so her son can perform activities for daily living that are important to his life.

Suddenly, like dominos she loses her car, loses her income,  loses her childcare,  loses her home.  So now she's in a position of starting over with nothing and 2 children. How is she going to make it? She's applied for assistance , diligently looking for  a new job. Seeking childcare so she can do the job. In between experiencing depression, taking care of her children's needs, figuring out housing and transportation for therapies, school, groceries, laundry etc etc . It's become almost unbearable dealing with all this alone. Shes stressed all the time, unable to sleep, losing time with her kids because she's so consumed with basic living needs. Wanting so badly to just raise her kids and live a normal life. This is why shes reaching out to the gofundme community.

Hello everyone.  My name is Danielle and this story is about my life. I started this campaign to help my family and get over this tall hump we have ran into. I am humbly asking for just a little support to help us make it through. Just like buying someone a cup of coffee,  this same amount can help sustsain us and save my little family from poverty. Feeding them, giving them shelter, transportation etc. Some of the necessities that makes life a little easier and less stressful. Ecspecially being a single mom. 

We will use this blessing to acquire a place to live and allow my kids to grow in a healthy way and be happy and comforatable. We will get another car so we can go freely and have a lot less hassle just to get groceries or go to the doctor.  I will pay bills that have gotten behind in these past few months. One in particular, the storage bill which is about to go to auction this Friday, August 12th. That is all we haven't lost  there are things in the unit that my mother gave us as well and its very close to being lost,  I'm afraid we may not make it.  So please DONATE now.  A few dollars can go a long way. 

Our family thanks you from the bottom of our hearts for your help. You are our COMMUNITY helping us during a critical transition. Thank you for tossing us a life line before we sink!! We are so grateful and may it be paid forward in your favor as well. Thanks for taking the time to read our story you are a blessing to our family.
