Help Me Build Homes For The Homeless

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Melissa and I need your help! I want to build homes for the homeless but lack the funds needed to do so. So, here I am.

Years ago I stumbled upon a website dedicated to people who build their own tiny little homes on flatdeck utility trailers and I fell in love. Being someone who has been through many more hardships in their short 28 years than most people will ever experience stretched out over their entire lifetime, I know what it means to suffer both physically and emotionally, to feel helpless, to become stressed out to the point of becoming ill, and to be at the point where you're ready to give up. Being homeless in the past myself, I also know how scary it is when you don't know where you can feel safe long enough to sleep just a little, that aching rumble in your belly from too much time between meals and the utter hopelessness one can feel in such times of despair.

I just want to help people! If I reach my goal, I'll have enough money to build two stunning, fully functioning homes for two very deserving people/couples/small families (as each home sleeps 1-3 people). In the long-term I'd like to build many more tiny homes to donate to those in need, but everyone has to start somewhere, and this is my beginning.

If you could find it in your heart to donate it would mean the world to not only me, but to those who will benefit from your generosity by being given a little place of their own, where they can feel safe and keep warm, the same way you and I do each and every day.

Thank you so much for your time, and please remember to pass this along to your friends via e-mail, facebook, twitter, etc.
