My name is Michael and I need your help. On April 1st, I'm losing my housing. Your donation helps me afford a meal, and maintain my storage unit so I don't lose everything. I've been sober for several years, even during a previous period of homelessness 8 years ago.

I'm working with local and other community services as a recipient and as a volunteer, but I still need some help. Shelter is often limited or unavailable, and I can't store or cook frozen & perishable foods. I would also be grateful for job opportunities or individual service gigs.

I have years of experience building & managing websites, graphic design, vinyl stickers, screen print patches, baked goods, homemade ice cream, hand poured candles, and crafts. I also have handyman, landscaping and garden maintenance experience. Please consider using the Contact button at the bottom of my page to get in touch if you might have a reference or job opportunity!

I'm in the process of refreshing my online portfolio of skills and experience. Thanks to a generous laptop donation, I'll still have access to my online resources. I will post updates as appropriate.

It's been difficult to set aside personal pride and post this fundraiser. I'm not shy about hard work, and I work hard to be as useful as possible. Please help me get through this challenge with a one-time or recurring donation. If you can donate supplies in the SoCal area, or if you have any job opportunities, you can reach me using the 'Contact' button below!

Thank you!
