Cooking with Impact
Family Story
Shelly is a single mother of triplets – two boys and one girl. Within two years, both of her boys were diagnosed with Leukemia. Shelly continued to work full time, while raising three 7 year olds and receiving no financial support from their father.
One of her sons is currently receiving treatment at a hospital that is 114 miles away from their home. After her children’s diagnoses, Shelly had only been able to work part-time. Now with the COVID-19 pandemic, her income has been further reduced as her hours have been cut.
The loss of income, combined with gas costs, child care, out of pocket expenses at the hospital, car maintenance costs and more have created severe financial stress for this family.
You can be their silver lining.
