A few days ago I went to Skid Row to document the lives of people being exploited by the system to commit voter fraud and other atrocities.

I was not prepared for who I would meet.

She came from Oregon. She has been homeless for over 7 years. For the past two years she has been living at the Weingart Center in Los Angeles, doing everything right, trying to find a way out, and hitting a wall at every turn.

What struck me most was not her circumstances. It was her character.

When others around her were being recruited to commit voter fraud and banking fraud in exchange for money, she refused.

People experiencing homelessness on Skid Row are being exploited and used by bad actors, and she looked that offer in the face and said no.

She would rather stay homeless than compromise her integrity.

She sat with me and told me her story, her goals, and her

dreams. She wants to move to Mobile, Alabama. She wants a quiet life. She wants peace. She has earned that.

$10,000 will cover her travel, a security deposit, and first month's rent on an apartment in Mobile so she can start completely fresh in a city with a lower cost of living and a real chance at stability.

I will get back in touch with her and find out her name, her Social Security income, etc and put together a proper budget but for now I wanted to create this so we can start helping her.

All funds will be held until shes found and provided to her directly!

Good people deserve good things. Please help us give her that chance.
