Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out because I’ve hit a rough patch and need a little help making it through the next month.

I’m currently working, but my income isn’t enough to cover rent and basic bills without a roommate- something that is not going to happen (not my choice). I had been counting on summer school work to help bridge the gap, but unfortunately, I wasn’t selected. I’ve been actively applying and interviewing for better-paying jobs, and I’m hopeful something will come through soon.

This fundraiser is just to help me stay afloat—covering rent, utilities, and essentials—while I continue to job search. I’m not asking for long-term support, just a small boost to help me get through this critical stretch.

Thank you so much for reading and for any support you’re able to give—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this.
