Struggling Single Mom Needs A Car

Landon & I

My name is Jennifer. I have a son named Landon. He is 4 years old. His father has not been around since he was 2 weeks old.
I left his father due to events of physical and verbal abuse.

I'm on this website asking for help because I lost my job as well as losing my only transportation since being unable to keep up with the car payment. I have no other options except moving where I have family. I do not receive any child support from my son's father, I never have. I plan on moving from San Diego, California to Redding, California in October if I am able to obtain a car. I was raised there and want to move back to give my son the best growing up experience with him not having a father. I need this vehicle to do so.

I'm trying to make ends meet without a car and even without a job and it has become really hard and has taken its toll. I would be forever thankful if anything came my way. I moved clear across the country with Landon's father only to be let down in the end and having to go into women's shelter awaiting my parents to send me back home.

Through everything though I have learned to remain strong and keep my head held high. Words could never express how thankful I would be. If I was selected I would be able to move and give my son the best life I could give him. Please help if any way possible.

I hope my story gives others strength to live their life the best way they can and to always look forward and never look back. Thank you for your time and consideration.
