Help Dommi Get Back on Her Feet
Donation protected
Hi, name is Dominique but my friends call me Dommi!
I had the kind of career year you can only dream of in 2022: top of my department, multiple awards won, made the most money I’ve ever made.
But a toxic work environment took a huge toll on my mental health and it lead to severe physical health issues too. I was laid off in April, started at a new company in June, and then was let go AGAIN first of October after being provided no real support or structure to help me succeed.
Thanks to the current market, it’s been very challenging to find work. Every application has hundreds (or thousands!) of other strong applicants and I’m facing rejections right and left. Savings and severance are exhausted.
My doctors thought I had cancer, which resulted in testing and biopsies. I took time to sort my health out, but I need help to survive now as well as pay off these copays and costs.
I know the amount seems like a lot, but this money will go to things like catching up on my car payments, getting my pets to the vet for routine care, bringing utility bills current, paying for my on-going medical needs, and giving me the room to continue to find work while I complete certifications to make myself a more-competitive candidate.
Here’s a breakdown:
$1500 to bring car payment current
$500 to settle outstanding power bill
$500 for updating vaccines/exams for Mashu and Boba
Remaining $2000 to pay off copays, buy medications, keep me fed, and anything else that arises.
It’s been incredibly hard to ask for this help because a lot of my loved ones have done so much already. I thank you for what you can give.
