Please help me from being homeless!
Hi, my name is Brittany. I'm a 26 year old living in the rustbelt of the midwest, and I'm currently in college.
I've been really unfortunate enough in my life to have a lot of hardships I've hardships to deal with, leading me to my current situation.
I had to move cities to try to find a more affordable place to live. Even with cheaper rent, I couldn't keep up with payments for my car, causing it to be repo'd and forcing me to have to leave my job.
I've been putting in job app after job app, either getting no responses or turned down. Some, I'm lucky enough to get an interview before being turned down.
I'm considered (by doctors) to be disabled, while disability believes the opposite. The only job I was successfully hired on, I ended up not being able to do because of my fibromyalgia causing far too much pain for the amount of lifting and movement needed.
Being jobless has left me struggling to pay the rent where I currently live. I appreciate everything my roommates have done for me, but I understand that they cannot financially take care of me as well. Thus, I have to move out by January 1st.
Luckily, apartments in our city are cheap. However, no income raises the problem of getting an apartment.
I started this gofundme in hopes of getting the money needed to get an apartment together, along with covering rent and utilities for a couple months while I keep searching for a job. Thankfully, I'll get financial aid refund money a few weeks into February at the latest.
Any money donated will be used towards deposit and cost of setting up utilities. Also, it will be used to help pay rent and utilities for a bit, also to hopefully get any bare necessities needed (such as dishes and towels and something to sleep on)
I really need to get enough money together by the end of December. I don't want to end up having to move to a homeless shelter, as those can be incredibly dangerous and unsanitary.
I appreciate any help so much. As a thank you, anyone who donates $50+ will receive a 'chibi' digital drawing from me, fully colored, as thanks. If you're interested in this, make a note in your donation comment.
Also, I am willing to do commissions to raise money as well, so feel free to contact me. Here is a link to info on commissions.

Thank you so much for any help, if by donation or passing this around.
