Scott Family Emergency Relief

Jenee Scott and her kids embarked on what was supposed to be a fun, family vacation  – driving from Seattle back to their hometown of Phoenix, Arizona. Late Friday night, they were involved in an accident in Palm Springs that caused their car to flip and roll six times. Two of Jenee's beautiful children, Aaliyah (6) and Jeremiah (2) died at the scene. 



From a young age, Jenee Scott has always been dedicated to helping others. As a child she wanted to be a pediatric doctor, allowing her to blend her passion for others and her love for kids. When she got pregnant at 18, she continued to follow her dreams while supporting her child, and earned her Medical Assistant Certificate shortly after graduating high school. She became a caring, loving mother to four wonderful babies. Despite any hardship she faced, she always put her kids first, and lent a helping hand to anyone she could.

 

Jenee and the surviving two children, Amari (age 8) and Ariah (age 2) are still in the hospital in critical condition. Jenee has suffered two fractured vertebrae, broken ribs, bruised lungs, and a bruised throat. Her recovery time will be lengthy.


The pain of this tragedy has only been made worse by the on-going pandemic. The children have only been allowed one visitor, and Jenee has been completely alone trying to heal from her injuries and the pain of her loss. Her family waits in hospital parking lots, only able to get information about their status over the phone. Ariah is awaiting surgery today, and though she hasn't been able to open her eyes, when given a teddy bear she's been able to clutch and pat it.

 

Aaliyah and Jeremiah were two of the purest souls to ever know this Earth. Aaliyah was quick-witted, fun-loving, and always ready to dance or sing. Jeremiah was the snuggliest, sweetest baby boy with an undying love for his twin sister, Ariah. They were taken from us far too soon and we will never forget their bright smiles or warm hugs.



Jenee has dedicated her life to her children and to helping others in her profession and personal life. The mounting bills for medical expenses beyond insurance coverage, funeral cost, transportation and recovery are beyond what the extended family can pool together.

 

If you are able to help in any way, even just a few dollars, it would mean the world to the  Scott family as they fight to recover. Updates will be posted as they become available.


I am organizing this campaign on Jenee's behalf and have assembled a team of helpers that includes her sister, grandparents, aunts and uncles. We do not yet have, and will not have for several weeks, a firm estimate of the family's full recovery needs. Funds will be used for Jenee, Amari, and Ariah's medical bills, rehabilitation, recovery living expenses, getting the survivors home, and other related bills. Other funds will go to transportation and interment of Aaliyah and Jeremiah. We have recovered Jenee's banking information and all proceeds will go directly to her. Please direct any questions or concerns to me as the organizer.
 

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
