Help Coco & her family get a reliable car

Hi everyone, Vince here again with another fundraiser for my dear friend Coco. Over the past few years I've set up a few different gfms for Coco. She is a wonderful and loving friend and mother who is also a diabetic and in recovery. After pandemic aid ended, Coco has struggled through an extended period of personal issues and financial instability. She has a daughter in grade school and gave birth in January 2024 to a son. Previous fundraisers I've set up for her have been to help her with bills/avoid homelessness during periods of under/unemployment and to help fix her beater car that had one problem after another for years. Recently that car has been towed leaving Coco with no transportation. She currently has a job that is working well for her but now has to spend a lot of money on Lyfts to make sure she keeps the job. She also is no longer able to pick her daughter up from school and take her kids and herself to doctor's appointments. Her boyfriend recently lost his job and is hunting for a new one, so Coco's job is their only income at this time. This fundraiser is primarily to try to raise money so Coco can buy a new used car. The listed goal is based on general prices of used cars in this area. If she is able to find a car that is cheaper, any donations beyond the price will go towards helping with bills, food, diapers and other baby necessities. Coco has been continually moved by the community stepping up to help her out in the past and I am hopeful that we can do it again to try to finally get her reliable, safe transport for herself and her family, which will help stabilize so much else in her life. Thank you so much for reading.

Hi everyone, it's been awhile since I gave an update. Unfortunately, the sellers Coco was in contact with strung her along before selling to other buyers. Even though she was not able to obtain a reliable car, the donations went towards getting her to work, paying bills, and baby expenses. In the past few weeks, Coco got very sick and ended up in the hospital (something that happens semi-regularly since she got Covid a few years ago & b/c of complications w/her diabetes) and missed two weeks of work. She is currently behind on rent and DTE is threatening to shut off her power in the midst of dropping temperatures. She is suffering from extreme depression from being sick and unable to get out of the financial hole she has been stuck in for awhile. I'm coming to the community once again to ask for some support for Coco and her family. Thank you to everyone who has already donated and shared, I can't express how grateful I am and how every dollar donated gives just a little bit of breathing room for Coco.
