My name is Brooke, and I am reaching out because I am currently on the streets and enduring significant hardship.

I am unhoused with no job begging in the streets. I have hurt hips, and am concerned, at times, whether I will survive the constant of walking around begging. Concrete, long term, has not been a nice bed. I am a bit better than that with a sleeping pad. I do not care for the department of human services because I believe my employment opportunity and fair housing has been undermined. Contributions for support are a great escape and possibly more forward moving.

I have serious apprehension pertaining to acquiring a motor home, truck, and camper to reside, travel, and work safely. I own an acre that is relatively under developed for residential purposes. Along with that I am applying myself to have sources of income to afford to live and retain my property. Personal safety, security, privacy are my imperatives. Unhoused, lacking privacy, kept from health and human safety standards. I have sustained myself begging in the streets, mostly, since last August. My hips hurt from sleeping on concrete alot and wear and tear walking around unreasonably asking if anyone can spare a few dollars.

Perhaps employment may help sometime. I have worked a lot to get well. I had injuries in 2017 that were never acceptably healed.

I had purchased a camper and sought a truck in 2017/18 that were not secured. I have had to live without. I suffered disturbance and emotional injury forced to hitchhiked for much of the 8 years since. Social at times, it was very volatile. I was mostly stranded in the countryside panhandling at times to make ends meet.

I have numerous projects including small business operations and supplies from wood work and jewelry to photography. I am not approaching athletics at this time due to concerns of injury.

I panhandled while removing my belongings from my F250 that was totaled in July. I was hopeful I could simply replace it. I had to consider my ability to drive safely as a priority preferring to read books and refocus my mind and financial situation for a while.

Damage from abuse has left me without the provisions I need to be well, and I am struggling to move forward. I am unable to finish my education due to overdue tuition and excessive coursework beyond the student aid limit. This has put my future on hold and made it impossible to achieve the professional goals I have worked so hard for. I need contributions to pay outstanding fines keeping me from completing a bachelor's degree.

On top of these challenges, I am unable to work acceptably and appropriately as required by civil rights laws because I need legal advice and representation I must somehow gain the money to afford. I also require adequate provisions for privacy, safety, and well being, which are currently out of reach. These barriers have made it extremely difficult to regain stability and pursue a better life.

Your support would mean the world to me. The funds raised will help me pay my overdue tuition, access the legal support I need, and secure basic provisions for privacy, safety, and well being, as well as procure small business materials and other real employment opportunity.

Your contributions improving my life, liberty, happiness, and civic standing is appreciated. Your financial contribution helps me become an upstanding member of society and achieve my long-overdue professional goals.

Thank you for considering a donation and for being part of my journey toward a brighter future.

I had a skiing/kayaking background with frequent phases of camping or sleeping in a vehicle. Destitute, ill, and at times overworked and underpaid, I suffered injury and abuse. Retiring from the sex industry (just dancing, like show-girl, strict, venues only), I encountered hardship. I have focused on safely making my a strong career change prioritizing other personal and professional values.

Long, enduring, agonizing, the sooner the loss is overcome and I recuperate from the devastation the better. Thank you for saving me! Thank you for contributing.
