If you know me, Mary Halsey, affectionately known to many as Missy Elliott's "Funky White Sister," you know how much joy, laughter, and kindness I bring wherever I go. I have always gone out of my way to help others, lift people's spirits, and show up for anyone in need. Now, I need your support. I have had the same car since 2002, and after more than 200,000 miles and over two decades of memories, it has finally given out at a time when dependable transportation is more important than ever.

My longtime partner, Pam, is currently receiving hospice care, and this heartbreaking season has made daily life even more challenging. A safe and reliable vehicle would help me continue caring for Pam, get to important appointments, pick up medications and necessities, and manage the many responsibilities that do not pause during difficult times. Funds from this fundraiser will help me purchase a dependable replacement vehicle and cover related taxes, registration, and initial expenses.

Please consider donating any amount you can to help me get the reliable transportation I need right now. If you are not able to donate, sharing this fundraiser would be a tremendous help. Thank you for supporting Pam and me and for surrounding us with love, compassion, and care during this difficult time.
