Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,
We never imagined that we would find ourselves in this position, but we are reaching out today with a heavy heart, hoping that you might be able to help my family during this incredibly difficult time.
Late last November, my son suffered a heart attack that turned our world upside down. Since that terrifying day, we have been struggling to keep our heads above water. Medical bills, coupled with the challenges of finding work, have left us in a situation where we are now at risk of losing our home.
We have fallen behind on our rent, and despite our best efforts, we are now just 5 days away from eviction. With two small children depending on us, the thought of being homeless is more than I can bear. We have also been facing urgent car repairs, which has made our situation even more desperate. Without reliable transportation, it’s been nearly impossible to secure consistent work or even run the daily errands that our family depends on.
We are asking for your support to help us raise the funds needed to pay our overdue rent and avoid eviction. The total amount we need to cover is $16,000, and any contribution—no matter how small—will make a world of difference to us.
Your generosity will not only keep a roof over our heads but will also give us the chance to get back on our feet. We are working hard to find stability, and your kindness would be a lifeline for our family during this incredibly stressful time.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read our story. We are deeply grateful for any help you can provide, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing our campaign with others who might be able to assist.
With love and gratitude,
Marilyn Lavala, Rachel Lavala Frank Lavala and Family
