After my marriage ended, I lost my home and eventually began living out of my car. That car became my only shelter and source of stability while I tried to rebuild my life. Recently, I lost it as well to repossession, leaving me without housing, transportation, or basic stability. I am now in my second year of homelessness and starting completely from zero.

I am not sharing this lightly. I have been doing everything I can to survive and move forward, but without stable housing or transportation, it has become extremely difficult to regain footing, access work, or rebuild any sense of long-term stability. This fundraiser is to help me meet immediate and essential needs, including temporary housing or shelter stability, food and basic living expenses, hygiene necessities, transportation so I can regain mobility and access opportunities, and communication access so I can continue rebuilding and pursuing work.

My goal is not only survival, but recovery. I want to rebuild my independence, stabilize my life, and eventually use what I have lived through to help others facing similar struggles find a way forward. Any support—whether financial or simply sharing this fundraiser—means more than I can put into words. It represents a real chance to begin again after losing everything.
