Hello I'm Markaya Spikes I'm a Unhoused Single Mother in desperate need of financial assistance with obtaining a Toyota Highlander or similar vehicle so that I may return back to work,transport my daughter to and from school,etc . I am a native of Oakland California and have been unhoused for more than 5 years due to economical hardship(Slumlord&working wages not matching cost of living)  which caused her and her youngest daughter who is 8 years old to become "Unhoused".  I am currently the site leader at 1 of the largest curbside communities in Oakland California,I am currently a advocate with a mission to change the narrative  perception of "Homeless".   I am currently employed with Wonolo where I deliveries for Good Eggs ,InstaCart,as well as work various other jobs which all the locations are located through out the bay area. I am asking for help because her 1999 Dodge Ram Van transmission among other things in the van has went out,the total estimate to repair everything exceeds the value of the vehicle plus some so now she is on TLA (temporary leave of absence) until I'm able to obtain a reliable vehicle for work which I am desperately trying to do. Dealing with the hardship of being unhoused and the financial hardship as well I am currently reaching out to GFM community to get any assistance with obtaining a Toyota  Highlander or similar to sized reliable registered vehicle so that I may return to work and be able to continue to support my family  while dealing with these extreme hardships that are being faced daily
