Four boys. One van. Three years. Let’s end this.

“Last night, my 7-year-old asked if we could ‘go home’ for his birthday. I didn’t have an answer. Again.

Three years ago, fire took everything. Not just walls and a roof—but the feeling of safety, of tomorrow, of somewhere to go. Since then, it’s been me and four of my five boys in a van.

You think you know what that means. But it’s not just sleeping in a vehicle. It’s car repairs that cost a month’s rent. It’s child support from a previous relationship—one missed payment, and a warrant drops. $600 or jail. (Litterally sit in jail until you come up with $600)That’s happened more times than I can count. (You know what its like when life happens-it HAPPENIN)Each time, I start over from farther behind.

LOOK -I work.I TRY🫨😔😩😥😟🫤🙂🙃. But every step forward theres two or 3 steps back. The system isn’t built for people like me to win. It’s built to exhaust us until we stop😓.

But I’m STILL here. And so are my boys.

Four of them are with me full-time. The fifth is with his dad—who actively makes sure I stay down. I don’t say that as a victim. I say it as a fact. And I say it because I need you to understand: I can’t water myself anymore. I’m a plant withering on dry ground. I just need someone to help bring the water so I can grow again.

What we NEED:

A security deposit.2× First and last month’s rent. A fridge with food inside. A door that locks. A place where my boys stop asking when we’re going home—because we’ll already be there.

FOR THE HEROS:

You don’t have to save the whole world. Just save this.

BE the person who doesn’t look away. Be the REASON four boys stop sleeping in a van. Be the match that lights the fire of a comeback story—not another loss.

DONATE $5, $50, or $500. Share this like someone’s life depends on it. Because mine does. Theirs does.

The promise:

You will watch us grow. I will send updates—the first night in our home, the first meal at a table, the first time my youngest says “I’m going to my room.” That moment will be yours too.

I have waited three years for someone to see me. Maybe that’s you.
