From Trauma to Peace & Healing

Donation protected
I am humbly asking for help today after being "trapped" in a very unhealthy relationship for close to 9 years.  I am finally extraditing myself and my kids and working my way through the fog of divorce/ parenting plan/ orders of protection/ and other not so fun court proceedings.  My girls and I have been living in our camper without plumbing for the last month and winter is rapidly approaching!  I am aware of the many programs available to help "women in my position," and have applied for section 8, and emergency housing vouchers among other things....but they take time, and I only have a day or two to raise the money! 

     I am willing to trade for local photography work, jewelry, light landscaping or yard work for your donation.  
     
     I have been blessed to find and be approved for a beautifully refinished cozy cabin apartment in the woods near Olney where I work for Great Northern Powder Guides.  The price is unbelievably cheap. (750/month including all utilities). It's like going back in time!  It came upon my lap suddenly and I don't have the funds I need for first month's rent and deposit.  It couldn't be a more perfect place for my family to re-group and heal.  My babysitter is literally just down the road, my son's best friend is in the neighborhood, and it's 3 miles from work!  
     
     The setting is beautiful and serene, overlooking the Stillwater Valley. It allows pets, there is a friend for Marley to play with right next door, I know all the neighbors.....I could go on and on.  It has to be fate.  
     
     I do not like to have to ask for help....but I need help.  Like I said, I only have a couple days to come up with the money or they will start advertising it.  The landlord came to me first because I've been bothering them for over a couple years hoping that one of their rentals would open up.  I've always dreamed of living out there, and now I have that chance for me and my kids to recover from the abuse.  
     I would be so grateful for any assistance.  Every penny helps.

Kindest Regards,

Emily
