New Start After Homelessness: Help with Moving Costs

Donation protected

Hello, I've been homeless now since September of 2025 after leaving a horrible marriage.


Since then, I have slept mostly in my car, a tent and now a homeless shelter. Recently found a place that said would rent but need first, last and security deposit. My car isn't drivable right now so need to rent a truck or get help moving.


I have finally found a place to move into next week, but need some help with the moving costs. I am moving to a new state and don't have much help, or know very many people in the area.


Anything would help. My kids are either grown or living with their father, and I find myself struggling, but not wanting to be back out on the streets again after getting so close.
