My name is Duane, and I’m reaching out for help for my household—myself, my wife Lori, and our beloved kitties.i am still trying to reach myfinal goal. can you help me? even a small amount would help. We live on social security and are below the poverty line. Over the past months, we’ve used up all our savings just to get by, especially after I was forced to leave my job because my employer wanted a younger person for my position. Now, we’ve been hit with a $2,000 utility bill that we must pay immediately, and I am completely broke and overdrawn at the bank. I’ve never been in this position before, and I’m frightened and ashamed to ask for help, but I have nowhere else to turn. We have no family and no one else to ask for support.

The funds raised will go directly toward paying this urgent utility bill, buying food for our household, and covering a vet bill for our kitties. Your support would make a real difference in our lives, helping us keep our home warm, our pantry stocked, and our pets healthy during this difficult time. Every bit of help means the world to us, and we are so grateful for any kindness you can offer.

I’m so sorry to bother anyone and ask for help, but I wouldn’t if I didn’t need to. Thank you for your kindness and compassion. From Duane, Lori, and our kitties, we appreciate your support more than words can say.
