Lark's Fire Recovery and Dog Care
Donation protected
Hello my name is Lark - honorably discharged military veteran. I lost my apartment to a fire. I am not able to work at full capacity for 3 months during renovations. I am losing income not having a stable place to stay. My insurance only covers $6,000 for personal property. The bed I need for my chronic pain is a fraction of that.
During the fire my dog suffered severe life altering trauma which will require working with a veterinarian behaviorist and certified trainer to get her back to a good place.
My other dog completely tore all ligaments in his right knee and needs a total knee replacement.
I was initially thinking I did not need a GFM but the income loss, rent still due and other bills, I’m falling drastically behind. I cannot buy furniture or anything yet, but I’m still liable for rent until the insurance investigation is done. I have no problems working off donations at all just text me [phone redacted]742 if that’s what you want to do.
I’m basically starting my life all over from scratch. I hate asking for help. All I do is ruminate over the money I’ve spent helping others and get angry I never save anything for myself.
This money is for
-Rent / Utilities x 4 months $15,000 (it will take time to recoup clients)
-Knee surgery $3500
-Omi Behavioral Help $2500
-Storage Lockers 18 Cubes $600
-Crates $300 (or used is fine)
-Security System Indoor and Patio 24/7 Filming $500
-Dog equipment (is not covered by insurance) Leash system (helps mitigate my pain), harnesses, toys, food storage, first aide supplies, heat pad, laser heat wand, sod patches, shock absorption ground cover, beds, over the counter meds, drag bag, wind chute, fitness equipment, toys, puzzles, lick mats, toppls, life vests, $9,000
-Grooming supplies $450 (razor, products, sheets, creams etc)
-Murphy Bed - allows more room $1500
-Queen Mattress $1300
-Clothes $1500
-Hiking gear $250
-TV $150
-Storage lockers single $750
-Kitchen supplies $500
-Couch w/storage $1000
-Closet shelving $170

I put $50,000 because I’m sure I’m missing a lot. I plan on returning any funds I do not use. I hope I come out a stronger better person after this. My soul needs rest.
thanks for reading!
*I am not opposed to a low interest loan if anyone is open to that. I can show proof never late on any bills but I never got around fixing up some fraud on my credit and it’s dinged me up at the bank.
