Hi, my name is Maxwell. I recently moved to Los Angeles with the hope of building a new life, chasing my dreams as a makeup artist, an influencer, and more. But the past month has been incredibly hard.

One night, while my car was parked, a reckless driver crashed into it — destroying the entire wheel and leaving it totaled. Just like that, something I relied on so much was taken away from me. This happened right as I had finally landed a new job and felt like things were starting to turn around.

I’m doing everything I can to stay strong, but I can’t do this alone. If you’re able to help me get a new car, it would mean more than I can put into words. It would give me the chance to get back on my feet, rebuild what I’ve lost, and keep fighting for the future I came here to create.
