Opportunities for Kindness
Lakota family needs assistance with transportation.
A hardworking mom of two Lakota students needs our help. She has been doing everything she can to support her family — working full-time, managing busy schedules, and doing it all on her own. Unfortunately, her vehicle recently broke down. The mechanic told her that the repairs would cost more than the car is worth, leaving her without a safe way to get to work or transport her children.
Everyday tasks that many of us take for granted — getting to school, picking up groceries, going to doctor appointments — have become a major struggle. Having a reliable car would make a world of difference for this family.
They have found a dependable used vehicle that has already passed an inspection from a trusted repair shop. The cost is $5,500, and any support would help them take this important step toward stability, consistency, and peace of mind. They are partnering with other programs and our support will help accomplish the goal.
This mom is determined to keep moving forward — a little help with transportation can help keep her family on track. Any monetary help is greatly appreciated! https://givebutter.com/nbLakota and designate Transportation Help
