About this fundraiser

Hi, my name is Julia G. I am a mother of two beautiful daughters and have been married for six years. This year hasn’t been the best year for my family and me. In January, I lost my mom to heart failure and it’s been super hard for my Dad and me. My dad is on dialysis and my mom was usually the one to help him out with getting him to his treatments and making sure he was eating right.

I'm helping my dad move halfway across the country so he can be closer to me and his grandkids and I would be able to step in and do what my mom did for my dad. Im fixing up his old house before he moves in because he recently had Squatters living in his home while he was living in WV with my mom. I wanted him to be able to move back home and not have to worry about the damages and the mess they left behind. I used whatever money I had to fix the damages but then I recently lost my job and my husband is the only one working at the moment and it’s been a real struggle keeping up with our bills. He works all day almost everyday and it’s still not enough. We are barely scraping by and it’s been really hard. We trying to save as much money as possible but every time we do something comes up. It’s like the world is against us :( . But we are staying strong but I’m reaching my break down point. I’ll be up all night stressing about how much money we’ll have and if we will have enough to pay our bills. I want to work to be able to help my husband with our finances but Daycare is super expensive and I can only work weekends and most of the jobs said I need to be able to work Monday-Friday. 

I’m asking for this much because that’s how much we have in some utilities bills and credit cards. I had to use my credit card to help my dad’s house and for emergency.We are trying to pay our credit cards off so we can have one less thing to stress about. I’m asking for help because I don’t know what else to do and it’s breaking me down. Please help me because I don’t know what else we are going to do.
