Support for the Blanchard Family
Donation protected
Please consider supporting Michelle Blanchard and her children in this time of need. This spring they lost their father in a tragic car accident and these last 10 months have been a painful journey of grieving. On Friday Feb 5, Aiden, her 11 year old, left the house and has been missing since. Despite efforts from state and local police, firefighters and dive teams in the Connecticut River, Aiden has still not been found. The search continues as Michelle is seeking help from the public to locate her son. Michelle works in a large, urban school district as a social worker taking care of children with significant emotional disabilities. She now needs her community to take care of her. Donations will be used to continue search efforts and to allow Michelle, a newly single parent, to focus her time on taking care of her children and finding her son. She also plans to use funds to provide Aiden with medical and mental health intervention when he is found. Michelle has asked that Eduardo and I take care of the logistics of the gofundme withdrawal, as she is singularly focused on finding Aiden at this time; so we set up a bank account for your generous donations and Michelle will have sole access to the funds as she needs them. She is very grateful for the overwhelming generosity and asks for your continued prayers and positive thoughts.
