Help Me Escape a Toxic Home and Build a Safe Future
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Christal, and I’m reaching out because I need help to leave a toxic and emotionally damaging household. This isn’t easy for me to share, but I’m in a situation where my well-being, mental health, and future are at risk if I stay any longer. This fundraiser will also be helping me have a safe, secure home for Three dogs, a cat, and a bearded dragon as well as myself.
For years, I’ve been living in an environment filled with emotional abuse, verbal manipulation/abuse, instability, and constant threats every day. It’s taken a toll on me in ways I can no longer ignore. After trying everything I could to make things work or cope, I’ve realized the only option left is to leave for my own safety and peace of mind.
I’m asking for help to raise $300,000 so I can secure safe housing, afford basic living expenses, and take the first steps toward building an independent and stable life. Your support will help with:
- First month’s rent and security deposit
- Or A Deposit on a Home
- Basic furniture and necessities
- Transportation and/or relocation costs
- Mental health care and resources
- Food and essential bills as I transition
I’ve already started planning my next steps and am committed to using this opportunity to create a healthy, stable life for myself. Any amount big or small would mean the world to me. Even just sharing this campaign could help me reach someone who can help.
Thank you for reading and for caring. I know there’s a better life waiting for me on the other side of this, and with your support, I believe I can achieve it.
With gratitude,
