Hello, my name is Drew, and I’m a former retired Navy veteran reaching out for help during one of the most difficult times of my life.

Right now, I’m stuck in a unstable living situation due to a lease that has become unbearable and extremely costly. Despite my best efforts to resolve things peacefully, the conditions here have deteriorated to the point where I fear for my current future.

Unfortunately, breaking this lease and securing a new, safe place to live comes with costs I simply can’t manage on my own. Between lease termination fees, moving expenses, and deposits for a new apartment, the total comes to $5,000 — an amount that feels impossible to reach on my current income.

I’ve always taken pride in handling my challenges quietly, but this time, I can’t do it alone. Any amount you can contribute will go directly toward:

Lease termination and related fees

First month’s rent and security deposit for a safe home

Basic moving costs

If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this campaign to help spread the word. Every share and kind word means more than you know.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, for your compassion, and for helping me take the next step toward safety and stability.

From one heart to another — thank you.
