STEP UP! Help A Working Mother In Dire Straits

Hey folks,

This story is not an easy one to tell. And the courage it took for the woman to let me tell it to you is immense.

Her name is Cy. She’s a sweet, hard working mother of 4 kids. One of them just 20 months old. Right now, all 5 of them are stuck in the middle of nowhere with no money, no place to stay, and I assume nothing to eat.

I’m telling you this story because you can help. Her kids need help. And I feel compelled to use my influence on the internet to persuade you to help.

Imagine your boyfriend breaking your hands so you could no longer use the internet. Imagine having your head slammed into the doorway. Imagine having your ribs busted by someone you lived with and had a relationship with.
After you watch that video, ask yourself a question: If it was a close friend of yours, what would YOU do to help?

No one should have to suffer domestic abuse like this. Obviously, you now see why I need your help. Please take a few seconds to watch the video below and see how you can help get Cy to a better place tomorrow…




Here’s what Cy needs…

Some money to get to a new city. She has a safe place to go and once there, will start looking for shelter for her kids. Right now she is stranded with nothing. In fact, her Paypal is -$250 after this monstrous ordeal.

I urge you to please dig deep into your heart and do whatever you can to help out Cy and her kids. I told her I would only help if she promised to move to the new city, start a new life, and surround herself with supportive people.

Right now, she just needs some supportive people. I’m not asking a lot from you, just whatever you can possibly do. Maybe it’s just tell a friend. Maybe it’s just a prayer. Please help however you feel comfortable doing so.

You can view Cy’s Product here…

If you are not interested in the product, but would like to just help with a couple bucks for daily needs, please send paypal payment to the email below….

cyprice @ gmail.com ( obviously without the spaces )

Thank you everyone, it means a lot to me and many of Cy’s friends.

ARE YOU IN AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP?

If you find that you are in an abusive relationship it is important to get out of there as soon as possible?  Right now you may be saying, "Yeah, right, but that is easier said than done"

One resource that you might consider is  to contact your local YWCA.  The one in my community sponsors a Women's Shelter.  A safe, secure place where women (and their children) can live anonymously for up to a month while they try to restart their lives.  They also provide counseling, help to find a job, day care, and clothing. 

A friend of mine came to me in need last spring.  I was able to point her in this direction and she is now on a whole new path in life after enduring years of mental and sometimes physical abuse from her husband.  The important thing is that you make the decision to get out.  There are people out there who will help you.
