My family, including my partner Jen, son Oliver, our corgis Piper and Cinamon Bun, and our cat Gordy, are everything to me. Right now, we're facing a situation that fills me with dread: our apartment management has given us very little notice to move, and we simply don't have the funds for first month's rent, last month's rent, moving costs, or pet deposits. The stress of not knowing where we'll live next is overwhelming, and as July heats up, the urgency grows even stronger.

We're asking for help to cover the costs of securing a new place to live. The funds will go directly toward first and last month's rent, hiring movers, renting a moving truck, and paying pet deposits. This support will give us a chance to start fresh and keep a roof over our heads—including our corgis Piper and Cinamon Bun, and our cat Gordy—during a time when we feel lost and uncertain. Every dollar will make a real difference for us, and help us avoid the possibility of being without a home.

I know times are tough for many people, and I wouldn't ask if I had any other options. If you're able to help—even a little—it would mean the world to us. If you can't donate, please consider sharing our fundraiser. Your kindness, whether through a donation or a share, is something we're deeply grateful for. Thank you for reading our story and for being part of our community.
