Michelle Middleton needs Our Help!

Donation protected
Michelle is homeless right now! My name is Amy Telschow Ama and I just found out a dear friend Michelle Middleton is homeless and has been for 2 months.  I worked with Michelle at Nordstrom during the 90's and have known her for almost 18 years. This is an Emergency, we need to get money for her now. STAT ASAP

She and her husband are having to live in a tent in Northern Washington State, and it is about to get very cold and rainy.  Her husband works, but was/is not making enough. She was laid off and was unable to find a job, they got behind on bills, which happens to so many of us.  This lead to an eviction 2 months ago. Seattle and surrounding areas are pushing many out due to outrageous rent and home prices. This could hapen to any of us. I have seen it happen to people you would never expect.

Michelle has MS, and being out in the cold rainy weather is not good for her at all. Her MS is somewhat stable at this moment, but MS is unpredictable and stress can exacerbate it quickly. It is a serious disease and it is important to maintain a comfortable living environment,
have stability, routine, proper temperatures, etc.

She feels very humbled and exposed. Michelle is not one to blame or dump her problems on anyone. I told her I was doing this whether she liked it or not.  She is in trouble and this is dire to her health, mental state, and I want her out of this cold, rainyweather has started.

Had I found this out sooner, I would have fund-raised sooner.  Basic needs food, water, and shelter are imperative to all human beings. No one deserves to be homeless, especially when they have worked hard their entire adult lives. Michelle is far from lazy, she has a beautiful heart, she is a fighter, and she is not that comfortable with vulnerability. Many people have a safety net like their parents basement, but some do not. Maybe this is a way she can learn to be vulnerable, and your donations will show her that she is loved and it is safe to let others help.

Please donate whatever you can and quickly, $5, $10, $20, $200 any amount is going to help them get into a place. I set the goal at 10k but I hope she can get more, and get it quickly. Most can at least spare $5.

We all need each other, please donate now, as quickly as you can. I know Michelle  will be grateful for anything you can donate to her so she can get out of this situation.  She will use the money wisely.  Love to all.
