From Struggle to Strength – Help Ana Today
Tax deductible
I'm reaching out for help on behalf of someone who has been through more than most people can imagine.
Ana was born in Kazakhstan and adopted internationally as a child, only to be abandoned and later placed into the “Troubled Teen Industry” — a system that has harmed rather than healed. Now, due to recent traumatic events involving a crime, Ana is being relocated for safety and recovery.
This fundraiser is to support both short-term needs — food, clothing, safe shelter, therapy, and transportation — and long-term goals like stable housing, education or job training, mental health care, and building a life free from the cycle of abandonment and institutional trauma.
Why this matters:
- Abandoned by adoptive family
- No safety net or biological family in the U.S.
- Survivor of abuse and neglect in an American-owned "treatment" facility
- Currently facing extreme instability and danger due to recent events.
Your donation helps with:
- Emergency housing and relocation costs
- Mental health services and trauma recovery
- Food, clothing, and basic necessities
- Creating a stable, independent future
Even $20 can make a difference. If you can’t donate, please share this story to help get support to someone who truly needs a second chance at life.
Thank you for seeing the person behind the pain and believing in healing.
