Aid Alyssa's Emergency Move and Fresh Start

Hi everyone, my name is Alyssa and I am a single mom to an amazing 8 year old boy(‘R’). My son, our two cats and I have to make an emergency move because I have had to make the difficult decision to end my 2.5 year relationship due to painful irreconcilable differences. Also, the lease is up on June 1st. I have been struggling with uncharacteristic low self confidence and severe depression for a few years now and it's time to take care of that and focus on myself and my son. The emergency is that we cannot afford the move and cannot afford to stay either. We barely made ends meet before the breakup but on my own I have nothing but my resourcefulness at my disposal. I don't have family or friends in NY where we currently live so if I can't get to Massachusetts we face homelessness. My family is already helping as best they can and I have applied for aid. The plan is to move with one of my best friends(‘bff’) to Mass and start over since they are suffering their own crisis. For their privacy I cannot go into detail but they need to get out of their living situation asap as well. To accomplish this we require funds for security deposit, first and last month's rent, a moving truck with fuel, and we also need to hire movers to load our small amount(yet absurdly heavy) furniture onto the truck. I previously Doordashed for a bit of money but have been unable to do so because I don't have a car anymore. I have been applying to remote jobs that I can keep after the move so I am able to be present for my kiddo and I also would like to further my education to secure our future.

Times have been so difficult for everyone for so long so please only give what you can spare. Prayers and well wishes are deeply appreciated. Thank you so much for reading and considering us. Lots of love ~Alyssa, R, and bff
