Hiyah! Some know me locally as one of the artists around town, others have truly become friends and family to me.

As a DV survivor, I have now lasted 5 years alone raising a beautiful 8 year old. But my will to find a way has lessened a bit lately. Throughout the years I have been able to survive of public transportation and the kindness of a close friend to get around and it's now become almost impossible to continue to do so anymore and still be an amazing mother and provide alone. Events for my business have become increasingly less accessible to me leading me to become behind on bills for the first time in YEARS, and have created issues with my son since he is autistic and I cannot leave him with just anyone to work around school hours. I do not have family in town. My mother would help if she could but she is hours away. His family in town does not care about him from his father's side and his father is an abuser who is non-existent. I just need help to even get a better car at this point to get from point A to B so I can provide better. In this economy having a car is becoming a must rather than only a privilege and it is one I need. So I am doing what I suck at doing and I am asking for help.

Thank you to everyone who has helped me over the years, be it a ride. Busfare, cabfare etc. But it's time for me to try and be independent with one last help since it is now greatly affecting my mental health. Thank you and love you all!
