These six children have endured more heartbreak and hardship than most adults face in a lifetime. They have witnessed severe domestic violence, been exposed to substance abuse, and ultimately removed from their mother’s care for their own safety. Now, under the guardianship of their grandmother — a single carer who has opened her heart and home- they are slowly rebuilding their sense of safety, trust, and belonging. Despite her unwavering love and dedication, the demands are immense. Each child has complex medical needs and requires multiple appointments every week. Five of the six children are diagnosed with Autism and ADHD, adding further layers of challenge to their daily routines. Grandma does everything she can to create a nurturing, stable environment- but the financial, emotional, and practical strain is enormous. These children deserve the chance to heal, grow, and to simply be kids again. Your support can make an extraordinary difference in helping this family and bring joy.
