I'm trying to raise funds to pay off Lorie's 2018 Chevy Traverse.

Lorie uses it for daily transportation to and from work, 30 miles each way, for herself and for coworkers, asking nothing in return.

On most weekends, she completes errands for herself, children and grandchildren.

As most of us, she tackles life's demands head on, one day at a time. She wears her heart on her sleeve as a badge of honor and will go out of her way to help someone. She won't broadcast that life is dog piling her or her family. She's not one to back down or give up just because things get tough.

But. Sometimes even the tough need help.

As many of you can agree, the economy is really out of balance, and has become unstable in the past five years. The house payment that was $450/mth six years ago is now $1150/mth. Other bills have increased proportionally. The basic cost of living has all but exploded. While the wage standard have remained stagnant.

Like many of you, our family and extended family feels every fluctuation in the economy. And all “extra” expenses have to be juggled to make sure the necessities are taken care of. Any change in the daily flow (emergency surgery, illness, death, divorce, etc) has major after affects. The household debt to income ratio is now restricting a refinance option.

That being said, I am reaching out to help take care of one major expense. A NECESSARY expense, that many other people rely one and benefit from.

The pay off amount is just around $5000.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
