<div><em>Hi, my name is Ryan.</em>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><em>For quite sometime now, I’ve been fighting to rebuild my life while facing homelessness.</em>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><em>I’ve been working two jobs, donating plasma, and doing everything I can just to stay on my feet, but </em><strong><em>without a stable home, it’s been nearly impossible to get ahead.</em></strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><em>There have been nights I’ve had to sneak into buildings for warmth or put myself in shelters from the elements of the cold. I’ve been through 22 states, 30 missions, 15 shelters, and 7 sober living programs. I stayed sober traveling for a sign of hope. I always work hard and never stopped trying because I know how hard it took me to get where I'm at and how easy it is to lose it. But when my scholarships for sober living ran out, I was back on the streets again.</em>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><em>I recently tried to stay with family, but that turned into another painful experience. I’ve been used, forgotten, and left behind by the very people I trusted most. Even when I give all I can. My income, my time, my effort, yet I’m still left with nothing. But through it all, I’ve learned who I don’t want to be. I’ve learned to be strong, humble, and to never stop giving, even when I have little myself. I was raised to put others before myself.</em>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><em>Right now, I’m asking for help to finally have a stable foundation — </em><strong><em>a place to call home. Something simple, but safe</em></strong><em>. I work two jobs. Jumping around Airbnbs when I can afford it or a hotel. For every dollar you give will go directly toward securing housing, food, and essentials. To get on my feet, and build a real future. I'm not a greedy person; I'm a giving person. I have learned a valuable aspect in my life about how I treat others. ( I will always lend out a helping hand because I may be the only one that does. )</em>

<div><em>Thank you for reading my story and for giving those in need a second chance.</em>
