I am a hardworking individual who has undergone a lot of adversity over the last several months. I have been homeless, have had obstacles to overcome, I find myself turned away from job opportunities repeatedly.

I am not an addict, nor do I have a criminal past. I have no feeling that I'm entitled to anything particular, but it's disheartening to be constantly worrying about where my ability to do simple things like catch the bus or keep my phone service on.

Any amount you could contribute would be appreciated and I certainly would pay it forward for someone else in the future.

I'm no more or less worthy than millions of others here asking for small amounts to get by in the short term. I've been generous to many friends and strangers when I had the wherewithal to give 10, 20, 100, 500 dollars to help in the immediate moment.

Thank You for anything you might be able to spare
