Emergency Funds for Billie Jean

Donation protected
I'm going to spare you the nitty gritty details, but my roommate was going through troubled times and lost his job for two months. During those two months I was taking care of the mortgage. At the same time there was an error with our joint account that caused a negative balance with the bank stating that we owed them. We agreed to pay the amount back, but they told us we had to do this within the next sixty days.

I told the bank that I could only do so much and that I would have no choice but to get it sent to collections due to bills. Their solution to this? Empty my entire bank account to zero as shown on the picture to go towards the debt, even after asking them if they were going to do that (which they said no over the phone, but they did it anyway), which didn't even cover the entire debt since there's still a little over 500 that is owed.

That money was supposed to go towards my mortgage, an electric bill and an assessment that I need to pay for my house. If that check bounces I could potentially be taken to court for that and owe even more money.

I'm not the type to go to these extremes and beg for money. I've exhausted all my resources trying to resolve this issue on my own, asking family members and friends for help, but I feel like I've used up those resources enough. I just need enough to pay up the rest of the debt and to make sure I have enough funds to pay off the major bills (Mortgage/electric) and my assessment so the check doesn't bounce. Any little bit counts and if you can't send money, boosting this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
