Hi there. My name is Sami. I'm a 41-year-old woman who has fallen on hard times. I have, and am still attempting to, exhaust every resource I can find to solve my financial woes, but I am on the verge of homelessness & bankruptcy, so this is my last stop.

In late 2025, I unexpectedly lost my job. My company let me go because they weren't getting enough work for me to do (due to Trump's tariffs). Since then, I've applied to nearly 500 jobs without a single interview. I am a professional with over 20 years of experience & this is unprecedented for me. I've even applied to "quick" jobs like Amazon delivery, but never get a call back.

Once February arrives, I'll be served an eviction notice because I can't pay my rent. After that, I'll move into my car - but when I can't pay my used car loan, they're going to repossess it, so I'll have nothing.

You name it, I've tried it. I would not be here asking for help from gracious strangers if I thought I had any other option. Please help me pay my rent, utilities, and car loan for at least February, so I can keep job hunting & trying to get back on my feet.

$3,000 would cover every single bill I have for February & ensure I can eat.

$12,000 would cover every single bill I have for February-May, which is when my current lease ends (& I plan to move somewhere far more affordable!).

I feel horrible asking for help when I know so many people around the world, let alone in the United States, are struggling, but I have nowhere else to turn. Thank you for reading & I appreciate your valuable time.
