I'm a Marine Veteran & My Family of 5 Was Forced to Move 3 Times This Year. We Can't Fix Our Car!

My Story:

I am a married father of 3 wonderful children and a veteran of the Marines. My son is headed to college on a football scholarship, and all my kids are very athletic.

Last year, my family had to move three different times after our landlords sold the property out from under us. We still have a lot of our belongings in storage. After paying for the moving expenses and storage bills, we have no way to repair our car. The engine, amongst other things, desperately needs fixing. If we cannot fix the car, we are not going to be able to get our kids to school, sports, or appointments. We will not be able to get to work, so our income will suffer greatly. We definitely cannot afford a new vehicle or other transportation, so repairing our car is our only hope.

I am asking for help with our car repairs, so we can keep both our car and family up and running. This gift will allow our kids to get to school and us to work; we can finally settle into our home and recover from a chaotic year of constant change. Thank you so much for any help you can offer us.
