I’m Frankie, and I’m creating this fundraiser for myself during a very difficult stretch. The picture of the garage door is just an example of how sometimes, life can go off-track but, can be repaired. I’m on a fixed income, disabled, proud veteran also. Recently, my rent increased to the point that it is now higher than what I receive each month. At the same time, my utility bills have also gone up because of the summer months. I’ve always tried to manage my bills as carefully as possible, but these rising costs have put me in a position where I simply can’t keep up on my own right now.

I’m asking for temporary help to cover my rent and utilities for the next couple of months while I work through this situation and try to regain some stability. Your support would help me stay current on the essentials and ease some of the stress that comes with not knowing how I’ll make ends meet. Any support, whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, would mean so much to me during this time. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any kindness you can offer.
