I came from Sierra Leone in 1996 for a better future. I started work in Dulles Airport in 1998. I have worked there for 20 years. I started 2 full time jobs in 2004 because I needed to get money for myself and to send to my kids. I used to work 16 hours almost every day to afford rent for my apartment. I still have to share my apartment with three people.
This changed in May, when I was fired from my wheelchair job. My boss accused me of asking for tips which I never did. Since I have started working there I have never asked for any tips or had any issues at work.
Without investigating I was fired from my job.
I am asking for help to pay my rent, buy food and send money for my children back home.
