Help Riley: Pregnant and Homeless After Crash
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Riley. I am 21 years old. Here's my story. I have been sleeping on couches for the last few months. On Easter of this year I found out I am pregnant. I am now 8 weeks along. On Wednesday May 21st at 10:30 I was kicked out of the house I was sleeping in. On the way to try to make money on doordash to get enough for a hotel for the night, I hydroplaned and spun my vehicle and totaled it at 10:50 pm. My vehicle was the only thing I had left to keep me going and to keep making money to provide for myself and my child. I went to the hospital and told them my situation and no help was given. I am now sleeping in tents here and there trying to find support. As well as around 2.5 weeks ago my wallet was stolen out of my vehicle while I was parked at a Wawa. At that point I believed nothing could get worse. Little did I know in a few weeks from then I would be left walking the streets begging for help. I started this GoFundMe so I could get some assistance getting a housing/vehicle. One thing this situation helped me with is finding God. I will pray to him everyday to help me through this. Any donations will help me and my child.
Thank you. (This money is going to me and me only. I do not have a bank account to transfer money into so I have to send it elsewhere to get it to me)
