Hi you guys! I am setting up this fundraiser to help my best
friend Whitney. She’s an amazing woman who is a mother to 3 kids. The
youngest is almost 8 months old. She recently lost her job before
Christmas and has been on the search for a new one. When the cold
front hit everything was going fine until she had pipes burst in her
home. She has water coming through the electrical outlets and had to
shut off the water and power. She got an estimate for the repairs but
since it’s inside the walls and so many pipes broken they are
estimating $6000 to fix it. While the home is unlivable she’s doing
what she can do they have somewhere to sleep. She was informed today
that her homeowners insurance would NOT be covering the repairs but
they will be looking into being able to get her into a hotel but we
will not know anything until 12/29 at the earliest. She is looking for
more quotes to see if she can have it fixed cheaper.
Right now we are looking for donations to help repair their home and
possible help with a hotel if insurance cannot help. Any possible left
over funds will go towards fixing water damage.
No mom likes to be displaced with her children and she is trying so hard and is being so strong during all of this. If I could help her out myself I would no questions asked. Right now I’m trying to keep her identity confidential but if anyone needs to know or feels more comfortable knowing to donate please ask. All funds will be going towards her and her family.
