My name is Ellis, I am reaching out for help during one of the most difficult periods of my life.
Over the past few years, I have been living with a chronic ulcer condition that has required ongoing medical care, treatment, and hospital visits. The physical pain has been exhausting, but the financial burden of managing my health while trying to build a future for myself has been equally overwhelming.

Recently, I made the difficult decision to leave an environment that had become physically and emotionally abusive. Leaving was necessary for my safety and well-being, but it also meant walking away without financial security, stable housing, or a support system I could rely on.

As a disabled queer student, finding stability has been especially challenging. I am currently struggling to secure safe housing and cover basic living expenses while recovering from the impact of both my health condition and the circumstances that forced me to leave home.

Despite everything, I remain committed to my education. I am currently enrolled at university and working hard toward completing my degree. Education represents hope, independence, and the opportunity to build a sustainable future. Unfortunately, without financial assistance, I am at risk of being unable to pay my school fees and may be forced to pause or abandon my studies.

I am raising funds to help cover:

* Safe and stable housing and rent
* Outstanding and ongoing hospital and medical expenses related to my chronic ulcer condition
* Basic living and recovery expenses, including food, transportation, and daily necessities
* University tuition and school-related costs so I can continue my education

Asking for help is not easy, but right now I cannot do this alone. Every contribution, no matter the amount, will help me move toward stability, recovery, and a future where I can live safely, manage my health, and complete my education.

If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser with others would mean just as much.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can offer during this difficult chapter of my life.
