Carrie Rausch, who recently turned 108 years old, has lived in the same residence for three years, but the facility doesn’t take Medicaid as payment, according to the GoFundMe page set up by Rausch’s daughter, Susan Hatfield. Hatfield set up the GoFundMe page three months ago, and the $40,000 goal was set to cover one year of room and board. Supporters have since raised $43,273, and the unused funds will be donated to St. John’s Lutheran Church, where Rausch is a lifelong member. “My mom has always said the Lord will take care of her,” Hatfield told PEOPLE prior to meeting the fundraising goal. Moving from her home would be devastating, Hatfield wrote on the GoFundMe page.
