Help Faith & I find a Permanent Home.

To anyone reading this; I’m sure you’re wondering where I’ve been. For the last few years I’ve been on and off between living on the street and having my own place, after not resigning with my previous roommates (to whom I am in pretty sizable debt to) I scored an apartment with some super toxic roommates. One of them being a massive alcoholic and I was forced to leave as the environment became unsafe for Faith and extremely unsustainable. All of the unities were in my name and I was paying the highest rent all while walking on eggshells around a violent drunk, in my own house. I plead with my landlord to remove this individual but he elected not to evict since the rent was being paid on time. Since having to leave there I’ve couch surfed and lost out on the security deposit I’ve put down; now with nowhere else to go I’m living in hotel rooms and I’m afraid I’ll run out of funds before being able to put together enough to score an apartment. I’ve tried to get approved for shelters, rental assistance, housing, the works and all of them have rejected my application since I’m employed. This GoFundMe is for the average cost of a deposit in MA/RI as well to consolidate my debts as it’s reaching over $2k. Anything and everything is appreciated, I have nowhere else to turn and have been afraid to turn this way as I’ve completely isolated myself from the community during these times, tried not to make my problems anyone else’s for as long as possible. Faith and I have practically zero relationship with our families either, or else we’d turn to asking them. I’ve sold pretty much any piece of technology I own, canceled my phone plans, maxed out my credit cards, and now I’m hemorrhaging my savings to make sure I have short term stays in the meantime.
