Opportunities for Kindness
Support a Family in Their Time of Loss
A local family is grieving the heartbreaking loss of a beloved mother, who passed away unexpectedly at only 35 years old — shortly after welcoming a new baby. She leaves behind her partner and four young children.
As the family navigates this unimaginable time, we are asking for community support to help ease their immediate needs. Gift cards to the following places would be especially helpful:
- Walmart
- Kroger
- Pizza Hut
- Wendy’s
- McDonald’s
Additionally, donations of size 1 diapers and baby formula (Enfamil – green can, or Similac 360 Total Care) would be greatly appreciated.
Your kindness and generosity will make a real difference as this family begins to rebuild and heal. Thank you for your compassion and support during this difficult time.
