<div>Dear friends, family, and everyone, I humbly turn outward to you for dire help during a time of financial struggle. 8 months ago, just 4 days before my father’s passing, I unexpectedly lost my job. In November, I lost unemployment. Throughout this time, I have been actively looking for work. I have yet to land employment.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Now that I am no longer receiving unemployment, our finances have rapidly become a crisis.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>It is increasingly becoming more and more difficult to simultaneously pay for all bills, basic necessities, essential costs, and rent. My reality? In the current situation we’re in, we are likely to lose our home. <strong>For this reason, I ask for help.</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Donations will significantly help make ends meet over the next few months, as I continue actively looking and applying for work. <strong>Financial support will be used for bills… most urgently, paying rent.</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Please help shed some light during this most difficult time, as I continue working toward turning these somber circumstances around through my employment search.</strong> Said differently, bridging the gap while I continue to seek new employment.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>It has been trying times. Emotionally, mentally, and financially draining. Having said that, I thank God for every day. We can’t get through this without assistance and without your support. Any donation makes a big difference. I truly appreciate you all. I thank you from the very bottom of my heart.

</div>
