Help Maggie Replace All of Her Stolen Belongings

Hello, my name is Tabitha and I'm raising money for my younger cousin Maggie who was recently robbed at gunpoint while at a gas station on her way home from work. Her car was stolen and she had been in the middle of moving apartments so most of her belongings were inside the car also. Police were able to locate her phone, found in a nearby dumpster, but none of her other items, or her vehicle have been recovered.

Maggie works full-time as a server at a restaurant about 35 minutes from her home. Because of this incident she has been unable to go to work and fears she will soon lose her job entirely. She has worked diligently to be able to purchase her first car, which she did without any other financial help. Unfortunately, her car insurance did not protect her from theft and so she has not been able to get any help from them. She has been without credit or debit cards since the incident because all of her accounts were frozen. She could really use our assistance to help her get back on her feet, replace her missing items, and try to put the sheer terror of the entire incident behind her.

The details - On July 8th, Maggie was driving home from work and pulled in to a gas station to fill up. When she stepped towards the pump a man wearing a mask came up behind her, put a gun to her head, and demanded her car keys. He had a masked accomplice who immediately jumped in to her car. They stole her car, her phone, her purse, and everything that was inside of the car; clothes, a MacBook, AirPods, almost every pair of shoes she owned, clothing, home decor, her camera and several rolls of film, they even made off with all of her cash tips from that night of work. She was left standing there with absolutely nothing, just 10 minutes away from the safety of her home.

Police tracked her iPhone and managed to locate it a few blocks away in a dumpster. They have not been so lucky in trying to track her vehicle, the MacBook, or any of her other belongings. Police told Maggie her car was used hours later in another armed robbery where shots were fired. Maggie was able to recognize the armed assailants even though they were still wearing their masks. These assailants have not yet been identified and none of her items, car included, have been found.

Maggie is a hard-working, strong, independent young woman and I would love to do everything I can to help her get back on her feet and move on from this terrifying experience. Anything you can contribute to help her would go a long way towards replacing everything that was taken from her.

The masked assailants robbed her of so much more than just belongings. Her sense of safety, of community, has been taken from her as well. Let's show her there is still good in the world too by coming together and chipping in to support her.
