Help Me Finish School & Find a Safe Home

Donation protected
I have been working hard for four years to pursue my education, but recently I was withdrawn from school because I struggled with the hands-on skills required for my program. Despite these challenges, I completed one program and am now enrolled in the medical assistant program at Carrington College, using credits from NorthWest Career College. My learning disability has made things difficult, but I never gave up and did well on my online assignments. After six months, I was withdrawn from the program, but my determination to finish what I started remains strong.

On top of my education struggles, I recently lost my best friend and roommate, who passed away a month ago. Since then, my living situation has become unsafe and overcrowded, and I'm finding it hard to cope. There are two pit bulls where I live, and I don't feel safe or comfortable. I can afford some rent, but I can't manage the deposit needed to move into a safer place. Everything has hit me at once, and I'm struggling with depression and grief, but I'm determined not to give up.

Your support would help me cover tuition so I can continue my education and also help with moving expenses and a deposit for a new place to live. If you can help, it would make a huge difference in my life and allow me to move forward. I'm not giving up, and I appreciate any encouragement or assistance you can offer. Thank you.
