I’m reaching out for help during a difficult period where I’ve been struggling to establish stability in both my employment and finances. Over the past several months, I have not been able to retain work that provided a fair and sustainable opportunity to succeed. Despite my efforts to stay aligned with my values, take responsibility for myself, and keep moving forward, I’ve encountered ongoing barriers that have made it impossible to catch up financially. I am currently three months behind on rent, and my utilities and essential bills are also past due. I’ve done everything I can with the resources available to me and have asked for help where possible, but the support I’ve had access to hasn’t been enough to get me back on my feet. As a result, my housing situation has become unstable. My landlord previously evicted me, allowed me to return, and is now attempting to evict me again.

Right now, I’m asking for support to establish basic footing — to catch up on rent and bills, maintain housing, feed myself and my dog, and cover basic transportation so I can get to and from work. Having these essentials covered would give me the stability I need to continue working, rebuilding financially, and moving forward in a healthier and more sustainable way.

Any contribution, no matter the amount, would mean more than I can express. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser is also deeply appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read and for any support you’re able to offer.
