Hi, my name is Rachel Litwiller and I am in need of some help. Recently, life has thrown me a few curveballs - loss of a job, a newly impending divorce from an abusive husband, car troubles; just to name a few. I have been without a job since April and left to be fully financially responsible for the home and bills since May. Being on unemployment has left me negotiating each month with whoever will allow me to do so in order to attempt to stay afloat. I have never struggled to find a job like I have since losing my job in April. That being said, I have fallen behind on all my bills, including the taxes on my home. I am also single parenting. That doesn’t include any other expenses that occur monthly while raising my son and caring for our dog, Bella. I will be honest - asking for help is the last thing I want to be doing. This experience has been humbling, to say the least. My hope is to raise enough money to dig myself out of the hole created by the current events that have me in such a bind. Anything helps!! If you have made it this far, thank you for taking the time to read this. This might be one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do - put my pride aside and ask my community to help my family and I.
