Help me with my education and be with my kids

Donation protected
Dear friends and family

I need some help from you

Due to unforeseeable circumstances that has left me destitute, I am seeking your financial support to complete my education at the Virginia Commonwealth University.  I am currently residing in Richmond VA, USA and am a father of two beautiful children. As some of you may know, I am coming out a three year divorce battle which sadly took an unpredictable turn and left me emotionally, physically and financially drained. As I attempt to pickup the pieces and immigration complexities completing my education is the only way for me to be in children's lives.  

Owing to limitations on my visa as a student and being impacted by COVID-19 on the formal labour market has seriously limited my employment options. I am also reeling from the legal fees attached to the divorce settlement.  I would have not needed to reach out had I been able to reach a fair legal settlement . But now even trying to correct it takes time and more legal bills.  Within this context, I am struggling to pay even my living expenses. I have no borrowing power due to immigration status and have exhausted all my personal funds. 

I would like you to see my situation with compassion and see how you can help. Having to come on this platforms is a sign of desperation that I am in. I recognize that this is a particularly difficult time for me to reach out to you for support since COVID-19 has impacted the economies and the labour markets around the world and that many of you are tied up with your own financial commitments. Please know that any small contribution will go a long way and even if you cannot contribute, the fact that you took the time to read this message is greatly appreciated. If you need  to know more or specific details before deciding to make a contribution, you can contact me via email at [email redacted] or through  whatsapp [phone redacted] 

At this stage, I am unsure of when I can repay you but once I complete my education and reach a place of financially  stability I would like to pay back your kindness. So please do leave your name , email and contact number.
