Please help my friend save her family!

[rurounihime]

Everyone, I have a friend from my elementary school days whose family is in dire straits. They have been homeless for a couple months now, she, her partner and their three children, living out of their car, which is not in the best shape. They've gone through the official channels, including CPS, and are on multiple housing lists in the Sacramento, CA area, but have had no luck getting housing. Both parents are work-capable, and drugs are not involved. Both Tashina (my friend) and Steven have appealed to their families for help with even just one of the children, and have had no takers. They are now seriously considering putting their children into the foster system.

I've started a gofundme account for them here. Please, anything you can spare will help. Tips on housing in the area, job opportunities, people renting out rooms... I think if they had a home base, they would be able to find their feet again.

I've reposted this to both my lj and to wish_list, sure hope that it helps, sweetie.

Have you considered getting in touch with copperbadge for him to make your notice about your friend part of his Radio Free Monday post? Sam has a huge friend's list and it would really help get the word out to maybe help your friends more. Sam's a great guy, I know he'd want to help. :)

Good luck!
