Deontae's story

My name is Deontae, and for as long as I can remember, I have been a fighter. Living with Spastic Cerebral Palsy means every single day is a marathon the simple things others take for granted require my full strength and focus.

But right now, I am facing a wall I cannot climb alone.

Due to a sudden decision by my uncle to sell his house while we’re in it, my family and I are being forced to completely start from scratch.This transition is an incredible weight on us right now, especially because my mother has been diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. We have been left with no choice but to rebuild our lives from the ground up on a very tight deadline. For someone in my physical condition and for my mother’s recovery, a stable environment isn't just a luxury—it is a necessity for our survival and dignity.

My mission is to buy a house for my family so that our security can never be taken away again. However, due to how quickly this move is happening, we need to secure a rental immediately as a bridge while we work toward that 100% goal.

This fundraiser is designed to provide my family with a complete fresh start. While our primary goal is permanent housing, these funds will be used to cover all essential costs and unforeseen expenses that arise during this transition. This includes housing, moving logistics, household necessities, transportation, and general living expenses as we work to rebuild our lives. Your support provides the flexibility we need to navigate this difficult move and ensures we have the resources to handle any challenge that comes our way.
