Story
We are writing on behalf of a dedicated single mother raising four children, ages 5, 10, and 16. She has maintained long-term, stable employment and recently secured more affordable housing. With great determination, she has been actively supporting her children’s emotional well-being through counseling and trauma-informed care. This summer, the family is in need of a little extra help. The eldest daughter, who is enrolled in advanced summer coursework, is also stepping up to help care for and transport her younger siblings while their mother works. Reliable transportation is essential for both her schooling and caregiving responsibilities. Due to the family’s tight budget—especially with ongoing therapy expenses—the mother is struggling to keep enough gas in the car to support these efforts. Despite these challenges, the family has made remarkable progress toward self-sufficiency and is committed to continuing on this path. We are kindly requesting a gas station gift card to help ease this burden. Any amount would be deeply appreciated and would go a long way in supporting this hardworking family during a critical time. Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
