Help Will Keith's family and pets overcome homelessness.

Donation protected
I'm Will Keith (Legal name Eric Keith but I've gone by Will most of my life) and I'm starting this Gofundme to help my family survive the worst time of our lives.

Myself, my mother Agata Keith and my aunt Rita Maggio have become homeless after our rent nearly doubled, and we were forced to leave our long-time apartment or be evicted. All three of us are disabled, my aunt with diabetes and kidney failure on dialysis, my mother with severe arthritis and osteoporosis, and me with a number of mental issues including PTSD, OCD, ADHD, along with extreme anxiety and depression.

I'm trying to find a job, and I'm working with services to help people like me find something I can do, but we're living in a motel paying $90 every day and $130 on weekends, and this is the cheapest place in a huge radius. We can't just move somewhere cheaper because my aunt Rita is in a physical rehab home with a broken leg and we can't just abandon her, and we have three pets which only this motel will allow, because the manager loves animals.

Family and friends have helped us more than I can describe, but they can't pay for our entire lives and this is essentially my last resort. Affordable housing apartments and Section 8 both have waitlists that are well over a year. We can't just rent one cheap room because we're a family of three with three pets that we CAN NOT abandon.

We have hope though. Once I find a job I can do, once my aunt can walk again and comes home and gets her disability again, when autumn comes and the motel becomes far cheaper, we'll be able to survive. But right now, we need help more than I can ever fully describe. There's nothing else I can say but thank you, thank you so much for any help you can give.
