Ariana's Journey to Stability and Success

Donation protected
My Name is Ariana. I am a single mother to my daughter, currently trying to make ends meet. I was just hit with a 30 day notice to start making payments on my student loans. Even as I budget it doesn't seem to fit into it. My hours were cut for my bill check and were already inconsistent before. It has made it hard to start making payments on my loans without going negative. I am already negative borrowing a minimum of 150$ just to make ends meet for my daughter and myself. This last check I've had to borrow $220 so far. My total loan amount is $26,639.40. I don't need the total amount.

I went to school for massage therapy, and have been unable to get a job. Most places are racist, corporations paying less than your work is worth or a dodgy location. I tried building my own independent contracting, yet I've met only creeps. Not people genuinely wanting physical relief in their body. I aspire to continue to be a massage therapist. Unless I can invest in my own business I've decided massage therapy will have to wait further in my life I'll just have to pay again if I can't keep continued education credits, and classes in my area are here and few. The school I went to ensured assistance on job placement and never actually aided in real job placement. Just pestered me until I told them I decided to start my own practice.

If anyone can help me get a leg up I would greatly appreciate genuine, good intentioned help offered! I just want to take care of my daughter, my garden, contribute to my community and have a better opportunity in life to achieve my dreams.
