Overview
I am a disabled single mother of two with lupus. Recently I relocated to be closer to family supports, but the cost of living is higher.
My goals are to ensure a working vehicle to keep my kids involved in activities, knowing that I can get them to doctors appointments, the grocery store, and to keep them healthy.
I need assistance with car repairs to fix a leaking radiator. The car I recently purchased began to leak.
Meeting this need will help me because having a van on the road will help me move forward by making my children's and my own doctors appointment. I have lupus and if I can't keep myself healthy, I can't take care of my children's mental and physical health needs.
Need funded!
Thank you for helping Karen fund this need.
