Fundraiser Started For Montco Woman Killed In Head-On Car Crash

WORCESTER TOWNSHIP, PA — The family of a 23-year-old Montgomery County woman killed recently in a fiery, head-on collision has started a fundraiser to try and help the woman's 9-month-old who has been left motherless.

The GoFundMe for Haley Michaela Brooks had already raised more than $23,000 out of a stated goal of $15,000, merely a day after its creation.

The link to the GoFundMe page can be found here.

In the description, family members called Brooks a "beautiful daughter, sister and friend."

Pennsylvania State Police did not previously release the name of the victim in Sunday's accident on Grange Avenue in Worcester Township, just over the Lower Providence line.

But the fundraiser seems to confirm that Brooks was the fatal victim in the fiery wreck, which also sent a 51-year-old woman from Gilbertsville to Temple University Hospital by air transport for treatment of what was described as severe injuries.

There were also numerous social media posts offering condolences to the family of Brooks, whose social presence seems to indicate that she was a local marketing and events coordinator who was a graduate of Methacton High School in Worcester.

The high school is just around the corner from where the fatal accident occurred.

In the fundraiser description, organizers said the family would be "eternally grateful if you could spare any contribution to Haley's memorial," and that any remaining funds would go toward the 9-month-old daughter, Aliya, and her father to "get through this terrible loss."

"Haley spent 23 years of her life being everyone's ray of sunshine and the life of every party," the description reads. "Her friends and family can consider themselves very lucky to have loved her for 23 years."

State Police are continuing to investigate what may have caused the crash. Patch will bring you additional information when it becomes available.

An obituary for Brooks did not yet appear to be available.
