Helen and her husband have two beautiful, smart, and funny children.
When her husband’s struggle with alcoholism worsened, Helen made the painful but necessary decision to separate from him. What she didn’t anticipate was the extent of the financial hardship his addiction had created.
She was shocked to learn that critical household bills had gone unpaid, leaving her and the children in a fragile and uncertain position. Overwhelmed and unsure how to regain her footing, Helen reached out for help and was referred to the Outer Banks Relief Foundation.
“I am so thankful for the Relief Foundation’s assistance. It allowed me to focus my time and energy on healing and taking care of my children. It helped me keep my housing and not default on major bills.”
Supported by relief funding, Helen regained her stability and began building a stronger future for her family.
“I am incredibly thankful to everyone who was able to help me and my family. You provided life-changing help.”
