Hi, my name is Minde,
and I’m reaching out as I take the biggest step of my life—starting over after surviving domestic violence.
I left everything behind—my home, my belongings, my sense of safety—because I knew I deserved better. It wasn’t easy. I walked away with nothing but the courage to believe I could rebuild.
Now, I’m working to become more than a survivor.
I want to feel like a person again. Not a victim, not someone defined by what I went through, but someone building something meaningful and strong.
That’s where my dream comes in:
starting my own food truck.
Cooking has always been my passion, my way of finding peace, and now I want to turn it into a business that supports me and brings good food and warmth to others.
I know I’m asking a lot—but if you can help raise even a little, it could completely turn my life around. I truly believe that once I’m back on my feet, I can help others too.
The funds will go toward:
- Equipment and basic appliances
- Food and inventory
- Licenses and startup fees
- Truck maintenance and supplies
I know not everyone understands how hard it is to start over.
But I also know how powerful it is when people believe in each other.
For my safety, I can’t show my full face right now. But this is my real story, and this is truly me. If anyone needs more information or has questions, I’m more than willing to provide details privately.
If you can support—through a donation or just by sharing my story—it would mean everything.
I’m not just raising money.
I’m reclaiming my life—with the hope of helping others do the same.
Thank you for standing with me.
