Help Kapri Raise Rent
Donation protected
I am completely grateful for where my life is heading. I have been recognized by many in the beverage and hospitality community and I am overjoyed by this. Unfortunately, a lot of this recognition does not come with financial gain or stability.
As like many of you, Covid-19 took my bar job and left me on the couch trying to figure out what was next. I filed for unemployment and started to find virtual ways to fill up my time and pay the bills. This allowed me to start collaborating with wonderful people around me and to grow my non-profit organization. As the world slowly started to open back up I found myself a warehouse job to bring in more income. Recently I started to work at a bar for 2 days a week. I've been doing all this while starting projects and businesses with like-minded friends.
I find myself now in the midst of a transitional period. Starting businesses takes time before any revenue is seen. My finances are not keeping up and I am afraid where rent will come from. I can no longer receive unemployment while I have 2 jobs which has decreased my monthly income by about $1,800. And the 2 jobs are not yet quite enough to keep me sustaining life (groceries, bills, rent) and investing in my goals.
I am asking you to donate anything from $1 or more to help me to pay my next couple months' rent and bills so that I may continue to focus on the work I am doing in this industry. I fear that if I am not able to find the funds for this, much of my hard work will have to be scrapped until I can afford to keep moving forward.
Anything and Everything will go a long way!!
Thank you for your continuous support. I cannot explain how much this means to me and I will never forget this very moment.
