Help My Family Find Safe Housing

Donation protected
I am a disabled Veteran who joined the Army as a Combat Medic right after 9/11. Witnessing the tragedy of that day inspired me to fight for my family and my country. For the past five years, I have provided a stable home for my loved ones—my 65-year-old mother Alpha, my wife Dezi, my brother Julian, and my 2-year-old son—always paying rent on time and doing my best to care for them.

Recently, a new property management company took over our home, raised the rent, and when I requested much-needed repairs, we discovered critical damage that made the house unsafe. My son has been breathing fiberglass, and I am terrified for his health and the safety of my entire family. I have already purchased a new home and am waiting to close on May 15th, but we need to move out immediately to protect my loved ones.

The funds raised will help us hire a moving company, store our belongings, and provide safe temporary housing for thirty days until we can move into our new place. I am fighting with everything in me to keep my family safe. Please, if you can, help us through this urgent and difficult time. Your support means the world to us.
