Savannah Mitchell says she’s thankful for everyone who has helped so far. She said many of the people who helped are complete strangers.

“I have one person that just asks me every day ‘Hey are you OK, do you need anything?’” she said. “They’re there for emotional support. Then others help in any way they can. I didn’t expect that, especially if people didn’t know me.”

Donations can be made to the Hardin County Schools Family Stability Program.
