On July 25, my life changed forever. I Samirya Richie 19 years old was shot five times in an attempt to take my life in a drive by & By God’s grace, I survived, but my recovery has been long, painful, and overwhelming. I spent time in the ICU and am now facing months of healing, surgeries, rehabilitation, and emotional recovery.
I am a college student who has been working hard to build a better future through education. Despite everything that has happened, I refuse to give up on my dream of finishing school. Unfortunately, this tragedy has left me unable to work, and the medical bills and everyday expenses are quickly becoming more than I can manage.
I’m asking for your support during one of the hardest times of my life. Every donation, no matter the amount, will help with my medical expenses, recovery, housing, transportation, and allow me to focus on healing while continuing my education. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing my story. Your prayers, kindness, and support mean more than words can express.
Thank you for standing with me as I fight to recover and move forward with my life. Every act of support gives me hope for a brighter future.
