Save Tyler Family from their Toxic Mold Nightmare!!!

Donation protected
The GIVING Geretys, an extraordinary Tyler family of SEVEN - including 5 beautiful children (2 birth, 2 forever adopted & 1 angelic foster, ranging in ages from 18 yrs to 12 months), have ALWAYS stepped up & stepped in for others!

It's URGENT we do so for them now!

The family MUST move out of their loving home IMMEDIATELY to remediate for extensive mold. The nightmare started revealing itself last summer as James made repairs from May 2024's flood. At that time (& for years prior as they moved into the home in 2018), the family has battled, baffling health issues despite INCREDIBLY healthy lifestyles.

The truth is, we'll truly never know how long the mold's been growing. We do know, the Geretys have to GET OUT!

A medical toxicity report came back yesterday on Emma, the Geretys' precious & precocious, 10 yr old daughter. Tragically, Emma has high levels of the most carcinogenic toxins & she tested positive for all of the other mycotoxins too. Emma's doctor said cancer is a very real threat if she continues to live among the mold. All seven family members will do an extensive mold detox protocol as soon as they move in to a mold-free location.

EXPENSES:
  • All Pro's Testing & Remediation Protocol ($3,200)
  • Extensive Mold Remediation ($20,000)
  • Temporary Housing for SEVEN (Katie dad and stepmom have gifted the family a 3/2 rental for FREE while their home is remediated & remodeled (leveraging Katie's dad's crew)!!! Yay for awesome FAMILY!!!
  • Remodeling (to put the home back together - $20,000)
  • Replacement of ALL Porous Household Goods & Personal Items (including clothing for SEVEN - ???)
