My name is Michele, and I am reaching out because I urgently need to escape a dangerous situation and rebuild my life in a safer place. Living in California has become increasingly unsafe for me, and I need to get out as quickly as possible before something else bad happens. I have experienced vandalism, had my car broken into, and have been followed, which has left me fearing for my life. Most recently, I was involved in a staged car accident, adding to the constant sense of danger. On top of these challenges, I recently recovered from breaking my foot but still need follow-up care while facing these threats. I have survived multiple attempts of abuse and have recently lost my job due to layoffs. The emotional toll of narcissistic abuse has made it even harder to find stability and peace of mind.

As a woman on my own, I am doing everything I can to survive, but the risks and uncertainty have become overwhelming. I need to move out of California immediately to find a safe environment where I can start over. The funds raised will go directly toward securing safe housing, covering the urgent costs of moving out of state, paying a deposit for a new place, repairing my vehicle, handling essential expenses like gas, food, and self-care, and supporting my ongoing follow-up care from my previous foot injury while I work to reestablish myself. Every bit of support will help me take the next step toward safety and independence.

I am asking for help because I cannot do this alone. Your support will make a real difference in my life, giving me the chance to escape danger, continue my recovery, and build a future where I can feel safe and hopeful again. Thank you for considering helping me during this critical and urgent time.
