From the page:

Accepting any charitable donations for a Derry NH family that lost their mother suddenly 8 months ago, she was 57 and died in bed of heart attack. The Lemay family have been struggling since her sudden death with loss of her income. Her husband is disabled with MS and can't work. The son was working taking care of the household till he fell and broke his jaw. Now no monies coming in for necessities. Just enough disability money to pay rent on their apt. No extra money for food or medicine and their eating only tomatoes this week. Anything anyone could provide by way of monies for food, medical costs, a homecook meal, house cleaning, gift cards your not using or gas cards. The smallest amount would be a help and it would be forever appreciated by this family! Thank you for any kindness you can provide this family.
