They have also filed a police report. But, that does not solve much for Kimberly’s father– who is now out of fifteen thousand dollars and his business.
“During this hard time where we are recovering from COVID-19, I am absolutely heartbroken and angry that this happened to my dad. Nobody deserves this,” Kimberly wrote, “I am reaching out humbly on behalf of my family. Any amount helps toward getting my dad a new truck and at least his start-up tools again.”
Over five hundred people have donated to Kimberly’s cause, raising nearly fifteen thousand dollars.
“All of these robberies make me so mad, and it’s worse to see such a hardworking man– who tried to make a better life for his family– suffer,” wrote Barbie Calva, who donated twenty dollars.
“I’m sorry about what happened. My parents are the same way– they came to this country and have made an honest living, more than others, yet still have less than what they deserve. It’s not much, but I wish you well,” wrote Azula Le, who donated fifteen dollars.
Kimberly was blown away by the community’s rush to support and has since turned off donations.
“I would like to thank every single person who has donated and written beautiful messages. We are going to begin the process of getting all of my dad’s tools and everything he needs to start again,” Kimberly wrote, “We are beyond grateful and thankful for every single one of you. We will be closing donations now– God bless!”
