Car repair and moving expenses

The truth is, I've been asking for help for ages now. Every time I try and get out of my situation something happens or it doesn't work out the money has to go to other things.

But here's the thing, I'm not getting a choice anymore.

The house my roommates, my mother, our pets and myself are all staying in is being foreclosed on by the end of June. We have no way of keeping it, nor desire. It's literally falling apart to the point that we have no no ceiling in one room, are infested with bugs and only have two rooms (out of a four bedroom house) that are livable.

My mother has one room to herself, my roommates and I all share the other.

We had a plan to get out by the end of May, there would have been strain but we were planning on getting jobs out in the world but last week, our car broke.

We don't live near public transit so that isn't an option.

It's $1200 to fix and that's not including fixing the AC which has been broken since the car was acquired. We live in Florida and that is a problem but honestly, we don't care at this point. We just need a car.

The money I am asking for is to repair the car. We have a little gathered already from friends and family but we don't have nearly enough or the time to really try and get it.

I'm asking for $800 in hopes that we will be able to cover the cost of the car repairs and help give us enough of a cushion to make up for what we couldn't manage to get during the time we couldn't look for work.

It's draining on all of us, we need to get out of the volatile home situation we are in and the house itself. One of us, who has not moved in yet, is in an abusive, stressful environment and while coming to stay with the rest of us isn't great, it's better than their situation.

We are all trying very hard to survive, not live a padded life but simply get a place to live, have enough money for food and electric and such and be financially independent of anyone else.

But we honestly cannot do that without a car.
