PLEASE HELP AN AUNT SAVE HER NEPHEWS FROM FOSTER CARE
I never imagined I would be asking strangers for help just to save my nephews.
My three nephews, ages 9, 8, and 4, have already endured more trauma than any child should ever have to experience. After years of instability surrounding their mother's mental health struggles, the boys were found abandoned near a wooded area by a truck stop restroom. A concerned truck driver reportedly discovered them alone and contacted authorities for help.
As their aunt, learning what these children had been through broke my heart. From that moment forward, I promised myself I would do everything in my power to protect them.
Today, I am fighting to bring my nephews home from foster care.
Instead of being allowed to heal within their family, the boys remain in foster care while I face a difficult and expensive legal battle. I have stepped forward because I love these children and believe they deserve the opportunity to grow up surrounded by family, stability, and support.
These boys have already suffered abandonment, fear, uncertainty, and emotional trauma. They deserve the opportunity to heal in a safe and loving environment with people who know them, care about them, and want the very best for their future.
Every day they remain away from their loved ones is another day of confusion and heartbreak for them and for everyone who cares about them.
I am raising funds to help cover:
• Attorney fees
• Court costs
• Transportation and visitation expenses
• Housing and necessities for the children
• Counseling and emotional support services
I am not asking for luxury.
I am asking for a chance.
A chance to fight for my nephews.
A chance to keep three brothers together.
A chance to provide them with the safe, loving, and stable home they deserve.
If you are able to donate, share this fundraiser, or simply keep these boys in your prayers, it would mean more than words can express.
Thank you for standing with an aunt who refuses to give up on her nephews.
