Help Ian Recover From Homelessness and Job Crisis

(It says “Ian Cline is organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Aliyah Cline” at the top because I lost my ID for verification so she will be sending me the money via Venmo)

Hey folks,

I’m reaching out because I’m in a tough spot right now. After losing my apartment in Los Angeles due to financial issues, with no other options I packed up my sedan and me and my dog Rando moved to the Bay Area to live temporarily in a camper van without electricity that my family let me borrow as a temporary solution while I work hard and save up to get back on my feet.

Right now I’m technically homeless, and this van is all I have to call home.

I’ve been earning income through Uber, Lyft, and deliveries, but recently my car (the sedan) started making strange noises. I took it to the shop and found out that I hit a bump that bent the inside of the wheels, damaging the bearings.

Unfortunately, the repairs aren’t covered under warranty because the damage was deemed human error.

I’m currently down to just $120 in my bank account, and without my car, I can’t earn money to get out of this situation. This car is currently my only source of income, and without it, I’m stuck.

If you can help, I’d be incredibly grateful. Every little bit counts. I’m also open to setting up a repayment plan for anyone who wants to support me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any support you can offer—whether it’s financial or sharing my story.

Thank you,

-ian
