Hi, my name is Dee. After losing my grandfather and facing some personal family challenges, I’ve been moving around trying to find stability. I’ve worked hard to keep going, and now I’m ready to rebuild my life — to find a stable home, reliable transportation, and restart my business. I’m a hardworking young woman with two part-time jobs and big dreams. I recently moved back home for safety reasons and gave up my city fheps voucher in nyc to start fresh in North Carolina.

Right now, I’m doing everything I can to get stable — working, saving, and planning to relaunch my small business once I’m back on my feet. I’m asking for help to raise $8,000 to cover my security deposit, first two months’ rent, and to get a reliable used car and to invest in myself (housing transportation and my businesses llc and hard copies of my book, studio time for my music and promo. also I can continue working and build a better future.

I’m not asking for a handout — just a hand up. Every dollar will help me take one step closer to independence, stability, and my goal of becoming a successful entrepreneur.

Thank you to anyone who believes in second chances, fresh starts, and the power of community support.
