Thank you first and foremost for your time.

I am a friend writing a summary as my eyes see it from the outside looking in.

Her name is Nicole and she is now a single mother of two young, wonderful boys, ages one and three.

Nicole is victim to a constant routine of verbal, mental, and physical abuse. She was assaulted about a month ago in front of her children early in the morning for asking her fiancee to help in getting the children taken care of, so that she could prepare breakfast for him and the boys. Nicole was getting over a horrible bout of the flu and needed help that morning....instead, she was slammed to the ground, choked and punched multiple times, and then kicked directly in the face, shattering her nose on top of the injuries she sustained to her orbital socket, cheeks, neck, arms, throat, and most of all her self worth. The damage to her nose required reconstructive surgery to fix!

I happened to check on her and offered to take her into my small home, with myself, and five children...if she chose to do the right thing and prosecute, which she has! Now, we have seven children and three adults in our little home. We are reaching out through this post in search of any help, financial or otherwise to get her back on her feet and with a vehicle to eventually be able to work and grow and heal and become an independent woman and a good, strong example to her children. We have very little financially, as only my husband is working at low wages as a carpenter and supporting himself, myself, two 6, 8,9, and 13 y.o. children, and Nicole and her one and two year old boys. This doesn't allow us to accomplish much more than enough to keep us all alive with small meals, which I am thankful for.

Nicole is ready to make the changes she needs and with many prayers we are sure she can! With your help she can retake control of her life, her children's growth, and a future of independence and freedom from abuse!

God bless you all and thank you.
