This is a very difficult thing for me to do, but I am writing to you with a humble request, driven by a challenging situation I find myself in, and I do so with the utmost sincerity and respect.
Life has presented me with unforeseen circumstances that have placed me in need of immediate, short-term financial assistance. I understand the weight of such a request and I want to assure you that I have my 8 year old son to consider, and would not make it, if I didn’t desperately need it.
To my friends and family ; whose wisdom and guidance have had a profound impact on my past, my present and hopefully my future, It is with great sincerity that I come to you, hoping for your support during this time.
If you are able and willing to offer any assistance , it would provide me with the help I need to overcome this temporary crisis. I have tried everything in my capacity to find solutions to a temporary problem. I am 15 days late on rent and fear an eviction notice will soon follow.
I was supposed to start a new job in 2 weeks, which was delayed several times, and now canceled, beyond my control. Someone accidently T-boned me in my car on my way to picking up my son.
I was just also given the gift of a big rent raise, when I am struggling with the rates now. The inflation has affected me greatly, and although I will be debt free very soon, I cannot keep up with the cost of living here as a single mother. I have to give 60 days notice to move out and Coltrain and I will go into a apartment, or possible relocate to an area more affordable, but I don’t have the rent money to cover those 60 days.
I understand that this is a significant request, with so many struggling during these times. I greatly appreciate your consideration and empathy in this matter. Your support would mean more to me than words can express.
I’d be open to explaining my situation with more specifics 1 on 1, if you’d like to reach out.
Your understanding and empathy mean a great deal to me. Requesting this help was difficult to do, but I am confident that this moment will be a pivotal step in my journey towards success and my ability to pay it forward in a substantial way to another soul in need.
Humbly,
