Help Aiah from possible eviction

Donation protected
Hello my name is Aiah and I am a full time student from London. Before the Covid 19 crisis I had a new job lined up at a coffee shop and worked there 2 weeks before lockdown began in March. When lockdown happened and the furlough scheme was introduced, I was not aware that I was not eligible because the furlough scheme had a cut off period of who was eligible. From March until June (now) I have been living off of my savings and student overdraft paying for my basic utility bills and expenses, however this has now got to a point where I can no longer sustain myself financially.

I have asked help from my friends and family and they have helped me with my basic necessities such as groceries and cooked meals however they could not aid me financially too because some have also lost their jobs and need to support themselves. 

I looked for other options by seeing if I am eligible for government benefits such as Universal Credit or Jobseekers Allowance etc, however my luck persists to be bad as I was not eligible for these benefits because I am a full time student receiving student loan (even the student loan was not enough to help sustain me financially because I received very little amount)

This has now caused me to be 3 months behind on rent and I am now unable to pay for my bills and expenses, if this situation continues I will be in a deep financial crisis with debts I cannot afford to pay at such a young age. Even though lockdown has lifted, my current job had let go of me as they could no longer afford to keep me. Because of these unprecedented times, I am not sure when I will be able to find a new job, even though I have been looking persistently.


The moneyraised here will partially mitigate the loss of income for 2020 and will help cover the essential costs of living including: 

1.) paying for my overdue rent as well as upcoming rent until I find a new job
2.) paying for my utility bills as well as my other bills & expenses
3.) help pay for my overdraft
4.) pay for groceries, supplements, medications etc 
5.) Other necessary insurance payments that are upcoming

I am collectively asking my community and anyone one else to step in and help alleviate some of the financial stress from me. Please know that every bit counts, and for whatever you can offer I am grateful!

God bless You.
