My name is John Achenbach, and I'm a single parent from Harrisburg, PA. For over 11 years, I've had full custody of my son and worked hard to provide for us. Life was stable until a year ago, when a severe infection in my left foot changed everything. I spent 4 weeks in the hospital, underwent surgery to remove part of my foot and a toe, and lost my ability to work. The medical crisis led to losing my apartment and car, and I've been fighting for disability benefits ever since.

Without a car, it's been nearly impossible to get around or find new work. My health challenges have made daily life a struggle, and I recently faced another hospital stay due to a new infection on same foot. Despite these setbacks, I'm determined to rebuild for myself and my son. A reliable car and some help with living expenses would give us the boost we need to move forward.

I'm reaching out for support because I have nowhere else to turn. Any donation, big or small, will help me get back on my feet and provide stability for my family. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering a donation to help us through this difficult time.
