Hi, my name is Gavin Martin and I am a single father of two very special little girls. While their mother is and has been an excellent parent and provider for them unfortunately, since I was laid off unexpectedly in February, their father has not been.

As many of you know, I have had a lot of financial difficulties this year, hell, for the last couple - my current place of employment does not guarantee 40 hours minimum a week and I am only making $16 an hour.

I have applied for countless jobs this year and most of the places that will pay me enough for some reason aren’t hiring me even with my five years of warehousing experience.

My car is being repo’d today and all the money I have allocated from each of these weekly checks,has gone directly towards bills that I have declared most important at the time being and with the late fees, constantly piling up all around me, I have not been able to catch up on rent.

today I received a three day notice to pay or quit - of $1,664.99 - amount to be paid full by 6-27-25 or I will for the first time in my 25 long years, actually be without a home. For myself. For my children on Dads days.. as well as my Mother who due to her current Physical/Medical conditions, cannot work.
