Help Zo escape from a physically abusive household

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Zo. I am an 18 year old girl and have been living in a abusive household with no support system. My parents have suspected me of being lesbian and have physically hurt me and threaten me with it every other day. The image I’m using is after the first time they have me a black eye. After this my lip was busted. My father also sexually harassed me by putting his hand in my underwear because my phone was hidden there. I need to move out or find some other shelter. I have contacted police about this but I was told as long as I live with them there is nothing they can do and that none of them really wants to help during a pandemic. They said I should keep to myself and just make sure my parents (specifically my father) do not get angry with me. I have not control over that. I had to quit my job after getting COVID from customers after being told that the store removed its policies of supporting their employees if they got sick at work. So money is tight at the moment but I am applying for other jobs. I was told to make a gofundme by a friend after telling them a part of my situation. My mattress was also thrown out the house and I’m not allowed to get it back. My parents are constantly trying to get my electronics (school laptop and personal phone). Anything would help and I’d be forever grateful for it. Thank you so much.
