Hello, my name is Ruben M. Padilla. I am attempting to raise money to help provide a home for my family. I am short on funds this year because I’ve spent the entire year putting others before myself. I never thought I would end up in a spot where I could not have a place to live. I am fearful that if I can not provide a place to stay for my kids they will be taken away from me. I am a hard worker with a full time job, my kids are not homeless as they can always stay with their mom. However without a place of my own I may lose the only thing that matters to me which is my kids. I’m not one to ask for help from anyone, having to create this page is painfully humiliating to me. If you can find it in your heart to help me during this difficult time I would be eager to learn anyway I can repay you for your help when I am capable of doing so. Thank you so much for your consideration.
