Unfortunately, I'm facing eviction this month and I desperately need $2,550 to pay my rent and avoid going homeless.
I'm a small independent Artist with her 15 yr old chihuahua, I've been applying for jobs since my layoff and have had no luck. I've exhausted all of my savings, gone into insurmountable debt while trying to pay my rent, support my aging mom who also has struggled to find a job and trying to make a living off of my art.
But I've officially run out of money, and If I don't come up with $2550 this month to pay my late rent, we're going to be kicked out and have no where else to go.
I can't even live in my tiny car because the AC is broken and I live in Florida where interior car temperatures can reach hundreds of degrees Fahrenheit :(
My break pads are also broken, and i can't afford to fix them, which means I'm kinda risking my life everytime I have to drive.
I can't afford to move all of our belongings and my art equipment, everything that i use to run my small art business, which hasn't been sustainable enough to pay all of my bills, food and expensive housing in my native state. I started my business this year and it's been disrupted by my financial crisis.
We also have our little senior doggy who has been by my side her entire life, she will be greatly affected by this situation, and I don't know what awaits us
:( Her name is Suzy, she's my baby

Losing my home would also mean i can nolonger rent anywhere else even if i did have the money, because my credit has been destroyed by crippling debt. I'd lose most of my precious belongings, my sense of purpose and my mental health. My mom's mental and physical health is also very shaken by this situation, and I don't know if she will be able to handle this awful transition.
Donations will go towards my rent for September while we try to figure things out, avoid eviction and hopefully fix my car as well as my phone screen, which is currently damaged to the point where the screen blacks out on me every few minutes and is making it very difficult to use my phone, I just can't afford to fix or replace it :(
Ideally it'd be great to be able to move into a more affordable space while I try to find 1 or 2 jobs, but moving expenses are astronomical and affordable housing is almost impossible to find down here. I'm also not sure how we're going to make October's rent.
Thank you so much for being here, any donation at all will be immensely appreciated. God bless you!!!
