Family of 4 living in 1BDR need housing

Donation protected
I’m raising money for my family of 4 living in a 1 bedroom apartment. We immigrated here from Syria in 2000 and have been living in the same place ever since. My son sleeps in the bedroom, and my daughter, husband and I sleep in the living room. My husband and I sleep on separate couches. My husband and I both have disabilities and it is very hard for us to get ahead. I have recently had a heart attack and I am recovering. We would use the money so we could move into a 2 bedroom with guaranteed rent for 1 year. I have applied for BC housing since 2015 and the waiting list is really long. It is a huge struggle living in this environment and it has really taken a toll on all our mental health. I want my children to be happy and for my 22 year old daughter to have some privacy because I know that it is very difficult for her too. I would really appreciate if you could share with all your friends and family that would mean the world to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to read our story.
