Hello, my name is Carolina and I’m going through a very difficult time both financially and personally.

I lost my father when I was nine years old, and since then I’ve had to move forward on my own. I completed a technical degree and am currently studying online to build a better future, but it’s been very hard. I live paycheck to paycheck, and almost everything I earn goes toward my virtual university program and basic living expenses.

Life at home has become intolerable because of a toxic family environment. My mother, who has never been supportive of me, has begun acting in ways that make it impossible for me to feel safe or at peace. On top of that, my brother has often been aggressive toward me sometimes over simple things, like when my dogs bark. He knows I can’t do much because the house where I live belongs to him, even though I contribute money and food. I can’t keep living in fear and instability. I’m losing my hair, I can’t sleep, and I cry every day. No one deserves to live like this, but I’m determined to move forward and rebuild my life in peace.

I love animals deeply and have two dogs that I rescued from the street. Sadly, it’s been extremely difficult to find a new place to live, especially with them. I have no savings and I’m running out of time and options. I’m afraid of ending up on the streets with my dogs.

I’m not someone who usually asks for help, but today I truly need it. I’m a hardworking woman who has always faced life alone, and this time I’m asking for a little support to get back on my feet.

Any donation, no matter how small, will help me secure a safe place to live and continue building a better future not only for me, but for my two dogs who are my family.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story and for any help you can give. ❤️ This money will help me secure a decent place to live for a couple of months, cover my moving expenses and get psychological help, I truly need to heal after everything I’ve been through.
