Hi everyone,

I’ve gone back and forth on making this because asking for help is really hard for me, but right now my mom and I are struggling more than we can handle on our own.

We both live off Social Security/disability income, and lately it feels like we’re barely surviving instead of living. After bills, there’s little to nothing left for groceries, household necessities, or unexpected expenses. Some weeks we’re genuinely stressed wondering how we’re going to make everything stretch. Most days we don't have money for groceries and have nothing in the house to eat.

My mom has health issues and I do everything I can to help take care of things at home while also trying to build a better future for us through content creation and school, but financially we’ve been drowning. Especially when I struggle with my mental health issues. Not having a car has made things even harder, especially when it comes to getting groceries, appointments, and basic errands done.

I know so many people are struggling right now, which is part of why this was so difficult to make. I’m someone who usually tries to figure everything out quietly on my own, but we’ve reached a point where we truly need support and kindness from others just to stay afloat.

Any donations would go directly toward:

• Groceries and household essentials

• Utilities and monthly bills

• Transportation/Ubers when needed

• Helping us stay stable during this difficult period

If you can’t donate, even sharing this means more than you know. Truly. Every bit of kindness helps lighten the weight we’ve been carrying.

Thank you for reading and for caring about us at all. I don’t take any support for granted, and I’ll forever be grateful to anyone who helps us through this.

— Hannah & Mom
