Donate to Keep Miriam and Her Dad Housed

Hello wonderful people

My dear best friend of 26 years, Miriam, is in a spot, and she and her 80 year old dad are about to be homeless.

They are losing their home in 30 days. Miriam, with great skill, found a place they can afford and that is accessible for her dad’s disability in Las Vegas.

They already signed the lease, BUT they need help providing the first 3 month’s rent as a down payment. They have the money to rent the place through her dad’s retirement checks from UC Berkeley Lab, but they won’t be able to move in without a bit of money they don’t have.

We are hoping to raise the money they need — $2,500 — because if we don’t, they will not only be forced onto the streets but won’t be able to secure a new place in the future because their credit would be ruined. Part of this money would also go to a U-Haul.

Miriam is planning to find work there as an art teacher. In the meantime, she is working vending jobs and trying to sell everything they own. To no avail, sadly…

We are also very accepting of ideas! Hopefully if we all put our heads together we’ll be able to save the day. Thank you so much for considering to make a donation to our friend and community member Miriam along with her father. However big or small helps lots. And thank you for any good vibes and for spreading this message to your communities.

Lots of love,

Caitlin, Miriam, and her dad Rich
