Starting Fresh After Leaving an Abusive Home
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Christina and I’m a QuestBridge Scholar at Washington University in St. Louis (Class of 2028). I made the incredibly difficult decision this year to leave home to protect my mental and emotional well-being. I’ve grown up in a toxic and abusive household, and while I’m no longer living with my father, my brothers are still there. That’s something I carry with me every day.
I’m doing my best to stay focused on school and build a better future, but right now I’m struggling financially. I’ve applied to multiple jobs and haven’t heard back, and I’m falling behind on rent and basic expenses. I’m reaching out because I truly need help just to get through this rough time.
If you’re able to donate or even just share this, it would mean the world to me. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
