Story
A single mother, recently left by her husband and going through a divorce, is disabled (cancer treatment) but is working part-time and has 4 children attending Zeeland Public Schools. Her home has only 1 bathroom but, due to a leak and surrounding water damage, the risk of electrocution prevents the family from using the shower. Mom has been taking them to other places to bathe for the past 6 months. Recently, several agencies helped this family secure the $20,000 to pay for the mold remediation and home repair which is to begin 4/24/2025. Unfortunately, the family cannot live in the home while the mold issues and construction are being dealt with and so must find a place to live for approximately 1 month. Possible solutions could be a donor who has a rental property or cottage that is vacant at this time where the family can stay or perhaps one or multiple donors working together to cover an extended stay at a motel. The family is open to any viable options but does request that the location has a kitchen since they are a low-income family and cannot afford to eat all of their meals out. Groceries or gift cards for groceries and/or restaurants could also be helpful during this time. Thank you greatly for considering how you can help!
