Help me get back on my feet

Hi my name is River. I am 19 years old and recently had to leave the home of my parents because of my sexuality. I recently came out as a lesbian and they do not agree with this. I left home voluntarily because I was told that I was not wanted there and I also wanted to leave because of the mistreatment I was experiencing. I am a university student pursuing a music major. My parents took my instrument, laptop, and cell phone away because they claimed those are the things that will help me successful. I am hoping that with donations I can pay my tuition for this semester and get back on my feet so I can be successful. I am currently staying with my partner for a few days but I need to find a place to stay after I leave from staying with them.

While staying with my parents I experienced emotional abuse, lack of respect, and privacy. My parents threatened to file a protective order against my partner because they do not like us being together. They want to file this order even though my partner only comes to their home to pick me up. My partner was never there otherwise. In the days before I left I was threatened and my phone was taken and completely gone through because they did not like that I didn't tell them I was gay, I had a partner, what ALL of my whereabouts were, and they felt I lied to them because I didn't tell them. They are very religious and feel it is wrong to be gay. They repeatedly told me that I was damning my soul and that they wanted to make to it to heaven as a family in the end. They told me that being gay is selfish and that all gay people are selfish.

Any donations will be greatly appreciated as they will go towards getting me back on my feet and being able to stay mentally/physically healthy, assist in tuiton, and basic necessities.
