Donation protected
Hi, my name is Troy. Im a 57 year old disabled homeless man with a labrador named 4. 4, the awesome labrador. I recieve 1,100 a month from social security disability which is not enough to afford any kind of decent housing. Much less be able to save for first, last, and deposit on renting a place. I am currently on a waiting list for section 8. Which i just got on. Im told, thw wait time can be approximetly 2 years. I recently met a new friend. Leo. A very caring man and his family that understands some homeless situations. This man has offered me his old construction trailer to live in if i can turn it into a tiny home. Which i can. Im an old construction guy of over 40 years exspirence. And, i used to work for a tiny home builder. Leo and i can not afford the very exspensive cost of materials. Just the 16 sheets of siding alone at $ 43 a sheet is $ 688. It needs a new floor, shower, bathroom sink/vanity, toilet, some electrical work, plumbing, sheetrock, a tankless water heater, a window or roof mounted ac/heating unit. and then some funrnishings. Like a bed, dresser, couch, just basics. If Mr. Leo and i can get this tiny home built and deemed livable. I can get section 8 approval and another organization, CAPMC, to help with move in cost and i can live in 4 and mine rental tiny home on Mr. Leo's property. I know theres all kinds of homeless people. Me, i dont do drugs, i am not an alchoholic. I am not wanted by any law enforment. I am a God fearing christian man with an awesome dog just trying to get out of a bad situation. If you can help, great, thank you. If not, i hope i can encourage you to help out another homeless person soon. God knows theres plenty of us. Thank you for listening. God bless you. Sincerly, Troy.

P.S. Material donations are very much welcomed. This is a 24 foot by 8 foot trailer. I currently have all the drywall needed. I can come pick up any materials needed. Thank you.
