Help Support Montana Guard Money Williams After Tragic Family Losses
On November 29, 2023, Montana freshman Money Williams was in Reno, Nevada for a game against the Wolf Pack when he received the news that his father had passed away. Less than a year later, Money and his four siblings lost their mother, Latoya Bailey, when she unexpectedly passed away last month, leaving Money and his older sister Mo’Ney to care for their three younger siblings.
In the wake of tragedy, Money stepped away from the team and has since coordinated a GoFundMe campaign with his sister to help cover funeral expenses and provide stability for their sibling’s education and new family challenges. While dealing with the weight of two seismic losses and assuming the responsibility of his younger sibling’s futures, Money’s simultaneously returned to fulfill his commitment to the program and his journey. After dropping 30 points against the Tennessee Volunteers on November 13, over $10,000 in donations reportedly poured in.
As of November 15, the GoFundMe has raised over $100,000 with a goal set of $150,000.
“We understand that times are tough for everyone, and there is no obligation to contribute. However, any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated and will make a significant difference in our lives,” Money and Mo’Ney wrote in the GoFundMe post.
