Help my family get home

Hello everyone!

I want to introduce myself. My name is Charlie, and I am contacting you with hope.

Over a year ago, my wife and I embarked on an adventure in Colombia to spend time with family and get married. However, unexpected events have left us in a challenging situation, unable to return our family home to Michigan.

Despite our best efforts, I have lost my remote computer job and a teaching job, making it difficult for us to fund our journey back home. Our cat Boris also fell ill, adding an unexpected expense to our tight budget.

We have tried every possible means to generate income, but unfortunately, it hasn't been enough. However, I am not one to give up easily. I have upskilled myself in teaching English and business analysis to create more opportunities.

But right now, we need your help. We are at a financial crossroads and need your assistance to secure safe passage for ourselves and our pets back to Michigan with our visas. Your kind donations will help us arrange our visas and move all our belongings back home.

We have plans to have children and care for our parents, who have had health issues in our absence. With your help, we can make this a reality.

We are grateful for any support you can offer, no matter how small. Please follow our journey on my Medium page, and we will keep you updated on our progress.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story, and we hope you can find it in your hearts to donate and help us get back home safely.

With hope and gratitude,

Charlie

I raised our donation goal slightly by $1300 to help stabilize our living situation. Please see our latest update here on this page for the full details.
