Hi. My name is Christi, and I’m reaching out for help. I retired from Federal service on 30 September 2025 and was just informed that I need to repay $19,000 to my retirement account in order to receive full federal retirement benefits.

Also, due to the large number of retirees, my partial benefits were delayed which has put me and my family at risk of losing our rental house and my car.

The immediate need of $25,000 total will help me recoup lost federal retirement wages and make sure my family does not get evicted from their house. I help support my disabled daughter and my 6-year-old granddaughter. The funds I raise here will go directly toward covering my rent and helping me get back on track with my retirement while I wait for my benefits to come through. Every bit of support will help me keep a roof over my head and regain some stability during this uncertain time.

I have always tried to find my own solutions to financial problems, but this one is too big a hurdle to climb alone. If you’re able to donate or share my story, it would mean the world to me. Thank you for taking the time to read and for any support you can offer.
