Disabled Trans Person seeking secure housing

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Ren. I am a chronically ill and disabled trans person seeking funds to help me find safe housing. I need your help to get more stability. My current housing situation is physically unsafe and is detrimental to my health.

I need to move away from my abusive and negligent landlord. I found mold in my room and have been living here for 6 months. Because of underlying conditions, mold has caused some significant increase in my symptoms, including resurgence of asthma and chronic persistent migraines. My medical staff has urged that I leave my residence as soon as I can. My landlord refuses to fulfill their responsibilities in providing another place to stay.

I have had to move from my last 3 places because of lack of safety from COVID exposure. I am high risk and immunocompromised. I am seeking funding to secure a studio apartment so that I can put down some roots.

I need funding to cover the deposit, move in costs, and moving fees. I am also raising funds to purchase a vehicle, so that I can get to and from appointments and work. So anything not going directly towards my move will go towards acquiring a vehicle.

Any amount is greatly appreciated. Thank you for supporting me through this really difficult time.
