FAMILY BACKGROUND:
A 38-year-old mother doing everything she can to keep her household stable after losing her job at a local florist when the business abruptly shut down after 95 years. With little notice, no severance, and no job placement assistance despite promises, the loss was devastating. Her fiancé, her partner of more than 17 years, struggled with unemployment as well but eventually found work at a mechanic shop. Together, they take on any landscaping, painting, handyman, or mechanical work they can to cover basic bills, often teaching each other new skills just to stay afloat.
The family has faced additional setbacks, including a recent car accident that left them unable to afford needed repairs. Their 12-year-old daughter tries to stay positive, helping both parents and even offering to spend her babysitting money to ease their stress. She is a compassionate, active child who loves sports, helping others, and spending time doing projects with her parents. They describe themselves as a close, silly, loving family who simply wants their daughter to enjoy Christmas without adult worries.
Because packages are frequently stolen from their apartment building, they use the grandparents’ address for safe delivery. With limited income and constant financial strain, the family is humbled to ask for support this holiday season and would be deeply grateful for any blessing.
