Help Sandra and Her Rescue Dogs Stay Together
"Hi, my name is Sandra, and asking for help like this isn’t easy for me. But I’m at a point where I don’t have many options left, so I’m reaching out with as much honesty and vulnerability as I can.
In late January, I lost my job because I stood up to a toxic boss. I couldn’t keep tolerating the unsupportive environment, and as a result, I was let go. Since then, that same employer has been fighting my unemployment benefits, making it nearly impossible for me to stay financially stable. It’s been a constant uphill battle, and I’ve come dangerously close to losing everything.
Right now, I’m facing eviction. I owe my landlord nearly $3,000 in back rent. He’s been patient for a while, but understandably, that patience is running out. If I can’t pay what I owe, I’ll be forced to leave my home—and I have nowhere else to go.
What’s most heartbreaking is that I have two beautiful, loving rescue dogs who mean the world to me. They’ve been by my side through everything—especially after I lost my dad 2.5 years ago. His passing shattered me. I spiraled into deep depression, and it took me a long time to even begin to find my footing again. These dogs are my family, my emotional support, my reason to get out of bed on the hard days. The thought of losing our home and being forced to separate them… It’s devastating.
I’ve been doing everything I can to get back on my feet. I’ve received so much kindness from friends who’ve helped me cover part of the rent already. I’m so grateful. But I still need help covering the remaining $3,000 to stop the eviction and keep my little family together.
If you’re able to donate, please know that every dollar makes a difference. And if you can’t give, sharing this means the world to me, too.
Thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping me hold on to hope."
