Emergency Help

Disabled single mom seeks emergency assistance in surviving domestic violence and post-separation abuse.

After being hospitalized for chronic illness flares, Starbucks forced her on unpaid disability leave. Far from offering accessibility options upon hiring as promised, Starbucks effectively fired her for being sick.

Before this, ex-partner then kept the vehicle that was supposed to be relinquished to her, causing her to lose income and have no transit. The ex also refuses to pay court-ordered support.

She has already accessed all potential state and local support programs. The courts will not enforce their orders to help her.

Without this help, she may have to move and be struggling even more.

Funds needed:
$250/month for medication
$140/month for phone and internet

Additional funds will go to securing legal representation and a new vehicle.
