Donate to Keep Alexa & Rhea Safe and Housed

Donation protected
Hello to my community,

After 2 months of struggling to find housing, as of October 15th, my dog and I will be out of options. I have exhausted all resources and, unfortunately, we will be completely houseless. I’m reaching out in a moment of need. I’m doing everything I can to keep myself and my dog, Rhea, safe. The sudden loss of stability, paired with rising costs, has left me in a position where I need to ask for help.

Because of the strain of the last couple months, our financial need has increased. I'm now trying to raise $4,500 in order to keep us off the streets.

Your support will go toward:

- First months rent and security deposit
- Moving expenses
- Rhea’s care, including daycare and walking costs, and potential overnight boarding if needed while we make this transition
- doctor visits and health care due to autoimmune flare ups caused by stress

Every contribution — whether it’s $5 or $50 — truly makes a difference. If you can’t give, sharing this link or asking around about affordable temporary safe housing means the world to us.

This is a difficult and vulnerable moment, and asking for help is always really hard. But I’m putting my faith in the power of community. Thank you for reading, for caring, and for doing what you can to help us reach stability.

We appreciate every bit of support and love through this!!

With gratitude,
Alexa & Rhea
