The funds raised will help cover the costs of a family trip from Ohio to Panama in January 2027. Specifically, the donations will be used for:

• Round-trip airline tickets for our family of four.
• Obtaining a U.S. passport for our infant son.
• Transportation while in Panama to visit family members.
• Food and basic travel expenses during our stay.
• Any travel-related fees necessary to make this reunion possible.

When We Need the Funds

We hope to travel in January 2027. Raising funds in advance will allow us to plan responsibly, secure flights at lower prices, and ensure all travel documents are obtained before our trip.

Who Will Benefit

The beneficiaries of this fundraiser are our family of four: myself, my husband, and our two young sons. Most importantly, this trip will allow my family in Panama to finally meet my husband and our children in person after years of separation.
 

Asking for help is not easy for me. My husband works hard to provide for our family while I stay home caring for our two little boys, ages 2 years and 3 months. While we are grateful for the life we have built together, international travel is currently beyond our family’s budget.

It has been years since I have hugged my Mom and brother, sat around a table with my loved ones, or shared precious moments together. My family has watched my life grow through photos and video calls, but they have never had the chance to hold their grandsons, play with them, or meet my husband face-to-face.
 

Your donation is more than a contribution toward a plane ticket. It is an investment in family, love, and memories that will last a lifetime. Every gift, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to a reunion we have dreamed about for years.

If you are unable to donate, sharing our story and keeping us in your prayers means just as much.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support. We are truly grateful for every person who helps make this dream possible.
