Hi everyone, and thank you for taking a moment to read my story.

The past six months have been extremely difficult. I have been out of work and it's taken longer to secure a new full-time position than I anticipated. I’m finally about to start a new position, but I won’t receive my first paycheck in time to catch up on the bills that have accumulated while I’ve been without steady income.

I live alone and have been doing everything I can to stay afloat—pushing back payments for rent, my car, and essential bills as far as they would allow. I’ve held off for as long as possible, but now everything is due at once, and I’m out of time to catch up before my new job begins.

In addition to the financial strain, I’ve also been managing some medical needs that are high priority and require consistent stability and access to care. This has added another layer of stress during a period when my resources have been limited.

I’m asking for emergency help to:

Catch up on past-due rent

Keep my car and insurance current

Cover utilities and essential bills

Maintain access to necessary medical care and basic living needs until my first paycheck arrives.

This has been one of the most stressful periods of my life, and asking for help is not easy. But right now, any support—whether through donating or sharing—would mean so much and would help me get to a stable place again.

Thank you for your kindness, support, and understanding.
