My great-grandmother – left us her land, a piece of earth she cherished with all her heart. It was her gift to us, a place where our family could grow and thrive. In 2004, my mother, a hardworking woman raising four kids alone, began building a house on it – a home she wanted to be her legacy. But she was let down time and again: contractors took her money, left half-finished walls, and disappeared. She never got to see it completed.

I took over her dream, determined to finish what she started. For over 6 years, my partner and I poured everything into it – our savings, our energy, our hope. But the house was a mess: poorly built, crumbling in places, forcing us to tear down and rebuild. Every step forward was two steps back. Then came the rising costs – materials we budgeted for years ago are now double, triple the price. It feels like an endless cycle we can’t escape.

Now, with our newborn child, the stakes are higher than ever. The place we’re living in isn’t ours, and the owner is moving back soon. We’ll have nowhere to go. Emotionally and physically, we’re breaking. I’m terrified this will tear my family apart. This house isn’t just walls; it’s our past, our future, our everything.

We need 25 000 EUR to finish the essentials: a solid roof, doors, and windows to make it livable. Every dollar brings us closer to moving in and escaping this nightmare.

Your help isn’t just about bricks and mortar – it’s about giving a family a chance to heal, to honor a mother’s love, and to keep a promise to the past. Even 5€ or 10€ means the world to us. Please, be part of our story.
