Hi, my name is Michelle, and I’m reaching out during a really difficult time in my life.

As of June 30th, I’ll be losing the room I’ve been renting for the past 7 months, and I urgently need a safe place to stay—both for myself and my three cats, who are my emotional support and family.

I work full time at Albertsons, and I’m doing everything I can to stay afloat, but right now I’m facing multiple challenges all at once. My car broke down, making it impossible to live in or drive to work, and I simply don’t have the funds to cover everything that's come up.

I’m asking for short-term support to help cover:

2 weeks in a motel for myself and my 3 cats: $1,200

Car diagnostic & repairs: $600 I need 3 coil packs plus labor since 2 are under the manifold.

Registration, smog, and title transfer: $300–400

Basic essentials & pet needs during this time: $300–500

I've contacted organizations and my union for rental assistance, but those processes take time—and I’m running out of it fast. This support would help me bridge the gap while I work and continue to look for stable housing.

This isn’t easy to ask, but any help you can offer would mean the world—whether it’s through donating or sharing this campaign with others.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading and caring. I’m just trying to keep going, hold onto what I have, and get back on my feet.

With love and gratitude,

Michelle
