Support Adrian in Getting to Seattle

Help Me Relocate for a Job & Avoid Homelessness

Hi, my name is Adrian, and I’m reaching out for support as I prepare to move from Fresno, California, to Seattle, Washington, for a promising job opportunity that could change my life.

This move isn’t just about a career step — it’s about securing stable housing and avoiding the very real possibility of homelessness. Right now in Fresno, housing instability (and ongoing homophobia) have been part of my ongoing struggle. I've worked hard to line up this job in Seattle that aligns with my long-term goals of contributing to community development and cultural enrichment. It's a rare chance to start over in a place where my skills and passion can truly make a difference.

However, the cost of relocating is daunting. Between travel, a security deposit, first month’s rent, and basic living expenses while I get settled, I’m facing a steep hill in upfront costs — to climb on my own.

Every donation — no matter the size — will help me:

- Secure stable housing upon arrival in Seattle.

- Afford food, transportation, and utilities during my first month of transition.

I’ve always been someone who strives to give back to my community, and this job gives me the chance to do that at a whole new level. With your help, I can cross this bridge and start a new chapter filled with dignity, stability, and purpose.

Thank you for believing in me.

With gratitude,

Adrian Tinoco
