About this fundraiser

  • I’m Melissa’s daughter Shauna and I’m trying to raise money for her. Melissa has recently found out she has stage 4 kidney disease, a heart problem, second brain aneurysm after first one burst and many more health problems! She has also lost her partner of 30 years on November 5 of 2024! She is currently struggling to keep up with her bills while raising her 16 year old granddaughter! She can’t retire or she won’t have healthcare! The trailer she’s in needs new carpets, kitchen floor, bathroom floor, furniture (she got rid of what she had to fit a hospital bed that’s no longer there), screen door and in order to not be fined from the owners of the lot the shed needs repainted and a ton of stuff taken out of the yard! That’s not even all of it so she would love to be able to start over and leave everything behind that’s not important! She also has expenses every month that she can’t keep up with even working full time still at 64 years old including a $600 car payment, groceries bc she makes too much for welfare assistance, toiletries, gas and electric that aren’t paid in full already, Wi-Fi for tv which is also behind and the electrical outlets also need fixed because right now there’s a bedroom and half of the trailer and outside light that doesn’t work and could easily start a fire! She’s tried getting help from everywhere she can with no luck! Every donation matters and will be appreciated greatly and will go towards everything needed for her to start over so she can live somewhat peaceful for the rest of her life! Thank you everyone!
