Running from Abuse
Help "Manda" and Her Pets Escape and Start Over
Fundraising Goal: $15,000
Dear Friends, Family, and Kindhearted Strangers,
I am reaching out today on behalf of a woman we will call Manda to protect her privacy and safety.
Manda has endured years of hardship, loss, and fear. She is trying to rebuild her life after losing nearly everything she owned in a devastating house fire. The fire destroyed her home, personal belongings, keepsakes, furniture, clothing, and the stability she once knew.
Today, Manda is living in a camper with limited resources. She often relies on a generator for electricity and struggles to meet basic daily needs. Her only vehicle is unreliable and frequently leaves her stranded on the side of the road, making it difficult to get to appointments, work opportunities, and essential services.
Manda is also working to leave an abusive relationship. The emotional, financial, and physical toll has left her exhausted and overwhelmed. Through everything she has endured, three faithful companions have remained by her side: her beloved German Shepherd, Sage, and her two cats, Shade and Thunder.
Despite every setback, Manda continues to fight for a safer future for herself and the animals who depend on her.
We are hoping to raise $15,000 to help Manda secure safety, stability, and a fresh start.

Thank you for your kindness, support, and prayers during this difficult time.
With gratitude,
Friends and Family Supporting Manda
