I never imagined I’d be asking for help, but our family could really use it right now.

This year has brought one challenge after another. Saylor is starting 3rd grade, and Tay is getting ready for her very first day of prekindergarten. More than anything, I want to make sure they have the school supplies, clothes, and shoes they need to start the school year feeling confident and prepared.

Our sweet dog, Russy, also injured her paw and needs veterinary care so she can finally heal. It’s been difficult watching her struggle.

On top of everything else, our community has been impacted by a devastating wildfire, leaving us facing an uncertain future. Like so many others, we’re taking things one day at a time and doing our best to stay hopeful.

If you’re able to help, every donation—no matter the size—will go toward school essentials for the kids, veterinary care for Ruka, and helping us get through this incredibly difficult season. If you can’t donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean just as much.

Thank you for your love, support, and prayers. They mean more to our family than words can say.
