Hi everyone. Writing this is incredibly hard, but I’m out of options and I need help.

I was recently fired from my job, and I’ve fallen behind on rent. I owe January and need help covering February as well. I have 10 days to come up with $2,600 to keep a roof over my head. I’ve exhausted my credit and, due to my current situation, I’m struggling to secure new employment right away.

What makes this even more frightening is that I am in recovery. I’ve been sober since June 2025. Sobriety is my hope, my path forward, and the hardest thing I’ve ever fought for. Right now, the stress and instability are overwhelming, and I’m doing everything I can to stay grounded and not return to my past.

I am not asking for a handout—I am asking for a hand up during one of the lowest moments of my life. Your donation will go directly toward rent so I can stay housed, stay sober, and have the stability I need to get back on my feet and working again.

If you can help financially, I am deeply grateful. If you can’t, sharing this means more than you know. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any kindness you’re able to offer. Truly. Please
