Help Mars Rebuild: Car Repair & Shelter Support Hello everyone, I’m reaching out for support during a difficult time. My journey to find stable work in Los Angeles took an unexpected and devastating turn. Due to ongoing wildfires, job opportunities fell through, and while traveling from San Diego, my car broke down. In my efforts to get to a safe location, I was put in an unsafe situation that led to a traumatic experience. Someone who claimed to be helping me with my car took advantage of my vulnerability, and while an investigation is ongoing, no immediate assistance has been provided. I urgently need funds to repair my car so I can sell it and secure a safer, more reliable vehicle—one that doesn’t carry the weight of this trauma. Additionally, I need temporary shelter while I raise money to get my car in the shop, as well as support for basic expenses like food, gas, and bills as I continue searching for stable work. More than anything, I just want to feel safe again and have the chance to rebuild. Any contribution, no matter the amount, would mean the world to me. Your kindness and support will help me regain stability and move forward from this incredibly difficult time. For safety reasons, I’m hesitant to upload photos, but I hope you understand. With deep appreciation, Mars
