**Help Support a Resilient 4-Year-Old Boy**

The tragic loss of Shelbie Smith has left a deep void in the hearts of many, especially her young 4-year-old son who is now facing unimaginable challenges. In the wake of brutal and violent crime that took Shelbie’s life and scarred her dear son as he was left to find her and seek help, the family is coming together to support the little boy as they navigate through their own grief.

Shelbie's son, a brave and resilient young soul, needs our help more than ever. He was present during the unfortunate incident and now finds himself in a situation that no child should ever have to experience. To protect his identity, we are not using his name, but we are determined to provide him with the care and resources he deserves.

With ongoing investigations underway, the family is seeking to establish a fund to assist in preparing his new living space and ensuring a smooth transition as he moves in with his aunt and her family. Our goal is to provide him with the necessary counseling support and potentially create an education fund to secure his future.

No child should have to endure the loss of a parent to such a heinous act. Let's come together to be the guiding light in this young boy's life, offering him the love and support he needs to heal and thrive. Your generous donations will directly contribute to his care and well-being, empowering him to overcome this tragedy and build a brighter tomorrow.

Join us in showing compassion and solidarity by donating towards this cause. Together, we can make a difference in this young boy's life and help him navigate through this challenging time with strength and resilience. Thank you for opening your hearts and being a source of hope for him. Lets exceed the goal!

We are so close to our goal.  Let’s not stop now.  Care for children of trauma is ongoing and expensive.  Getting Gunner settled in to his new home he has his own new bed, a bike and is learning to swim.  He has good days but many more are bad.  He gets aggressive without warning and wants to pretend to be dead.  All of this is an attempt to process and grieve but he keeps expecting mom to come pick him up.  
this child needs your help to get the counseling he needs.  The family is grieving and working to make sure Gunner feels welcomed and safe.  But it’s all quite hard.  
the family has no answers regarding who may have harmed She’.  Police investigation is ongoing.

We know that Shelbie was taken from her family by a violent crime.  We are learning each day how hard it will be to help Gunner navigate the road ahead.  The counseling alone is very expensive but we really want to ensure that the entire family gets the support they need to help Gunner heal while they also grieve and to start a fund for Gunner’s future.  
Expenses are significant and, as you’d expect, this young mother taken so tragically, didn’t ever plan for this.  We are increasing our goal.  Please look into your heart and help in any way you can.  No gift is too small.  
Shelbie’s love for this child was so great.  Let’s help to make sure his future is too.
