Donate to Help Mike & Coleen Rebuild After Tree Crash, organized by Coleen Boyd

Help Rebuild Our Lives After a Tree Crash Disaster Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers, We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts and a deep sense of urgency. Our beloved home has been devastated by a tragic accident, and we need your support to help us rebuild our lives. In the early hours of August 2, 2024, an enormous tree crashed through our home. The impact was catastrophic. Our house is now severely damaged. I was buried under the debris until 2 brave and kind neighbors rescued me. Thankfully, I’m alive, but I have suffered injuries and trauma that will require extensive therapy. The destruction is overwhelming. Our home, which was filled with our cherished memories, is now uninhabitable. We’ve lost almost everything – furniture, personal belongings, and essential documents. Most can be replaced but there are several items that belonged to my son who passed away in 2021. That hurts. Here’s how your support will make a difference: The trauma I’ve experienced means I will need counseling and support for a long time. Temporary Housing: We need to find a safe place to stay while we find a new place. This will be a significant financial burden that we didn't expect. The damage to our home is extensive and unfortunately cant be repaired with renovations. Adding to our grief, our beloved pets – three cats and one dog – are deeply traumatized by the incident. Our 3 cats ran off and hid for a few days. They were caught in the chaos and are struggling to cope with the stress and disruption. They need veterinary care, trauma support, and a safe environment to begin healing. Daily Needs: We are starting from scratch and will need assistance with daily essentials, from clothing to groceries, as we navigate this challenging period. How You Can Help: Donate: Any amount you can contribute will be immensely appreciated. Every dollar brings us closer to rebuilding our lives. Share: Please share our story with your network. The more people who know about our situation, the more likely we are to reach our goal. Offer Support: If you have resources or services that might be helpful, or if you can offer temporary housing or job opportunities, please reach out to us. We are profoundly grateful for the outpouring of love and support we’ve already received. This has been an incredibly humbling experience, and we appreciate every kind word, donation, and gesture of help. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing by us during this difficult time. Your generosity and compassion will help us move forward and rebuild our lives. With deepest gratitude, Mike & Coleen Boyd Read more

Why GoFundMe Articles and URLs Appear on Our Website and How We Support Other GoFundMe Campaigns

At LFEBridge Foundation, we are dedicated to creating a platform where individuals and organizations can maximize their fundraising efforts. As part of our commitment to supporting a wide range of causes, we incorporate articles and URLs from GoFundMe into our website. Here’s why you might see GoFundMe content on our site, how it benefits the fundraising community, and our relationship with GoFundMe:

1. Amplifying Reach for Fundraising Campaigns

Cross-Promotional Opportunities: Highlighting campaigns from GoFundMe allows us to support a broader spectrum of causes and connect with a wider audience. This cross-promotion benefits both the campaign organizers and potential donors looking for causes to support.

2. Supporting Campaign Growth

Advertising and Promotion: We understand the importance of visibility in successful fundraising. By showcasing GoFundMe campaigns, we provide an advertising platform that helps these campaigns reach potential donors who might not have discovered them otherwise.
Strategic Partnerships: Collaborating with GoFundMe and featuring their campaigns on our site strengthens the fundraising ecosystem, ensuring that worthwhile causes receive the attention and support they deserve.

3. Expanding Donor Networks

Broader Donor Base: Featuring a variety of campaigns from different platforms helps diversify and expand the donor base. This means more people can learn about and contribute to a variety of causes, ultimately driving higher engagement and donations.
