Hello friends, family, and beautiful strangers! ✨

After 3 years of living in the city of dreams New York City, I'm in immediate need of support to cover costs of legal fees in association to my immigration status. I moved here for love, and even though I've lost a romantic relationship, the love for the people that I've met along the way has only grown stronger. My life here means everything to me: My dance community, the animals that I take care of, the culture and people of the city. New York has become my home and the place where I truly learned how to love myself - where I can become who I was always meant to be

I am unfortunately in jeopardy right now and need a lawyer to help me towards the next step of my green card journey. The legal fees are expensive and my funds are limited, so I am reaching out for your help. I need $6,370, which will cover all of my legal fees. I am able to cover some of these fees, but most of my monthly salary only covers monthly bills and living costs.

I've always prided myself in being self-sufficient and I never want to burden others. I always offer help, yet will rarely ask the same of others, so I've had my doubts about creating this page. But as I have grown in confidence, I now know that I am worthy of love! Which means reaching out for a helping hand when desperately in need!

I am praying that you will help me keep my future in New York City. I need the city and it's people who have surrounded me with love and comfort in times of personal change and distress. I will be forever grateful. Love to you all From Maya
