I'm currently working full-time from home and also driving part-time for Lyft to make ends meet. Unfortunately, the cost of renting a car for rideshare makes it nearly impossible to save or get ahead. Most of what I earn from driving goes straight to the rental company, and it's left me working 18-19 hour days consecutively just to keep up. The long hours are starting to take a toll on my health, and I know I can't keep this up forever.
Just two days ago, I went to the ER with a severe headache and body fatigue. I was told I was severely dehydrated, and when I followed up with my doctor, he attributed it to working so much. He’s now concerned that this level of overwork could affect my kidneys if it continues. This experience was a wake-up call that I need to make a change for my health and well-being.
Having my own car would change everything. It would allow me to keep more of what I earn, work more manageable hours, and have a reliable vehicle in case of emergencies. This would not only help me financially, but also give me peace of mind and a better quality of life. The amount I'm asking for was recommended by car dealerships as a down payment, so your support will help me take this important step toward stability.
In the past my online community has rallied around me, and for that I am forever grateful. I'm doing my best to put myself in a better position, and having a vehicle of my own would make a world of difference. If you're able to donate or even just share my story, it would mean everything to me. Thank you so much for your kindness and support.
