TL;DR: I need about $4000 to get me out of a bad housing situation and really improve my living situation.

So, let's start this by saying this is super embarrassing and I hate that I'm asking for help...

Over 10 years ago, I bought a 2011 Jayco Eagle 5th Wheel Trailer to live in. I have been in the same trailer park in Kissimmee for 10 years. The trailer has experienced significant wear and tear from hurricanes, the Florida sun, and being lived in.

In that time, I've had to make all kinds of fixes myself, cheaply and without know-how. The park I live at has changed management companies and has forced me to make expensive cosmetic changes as well (specifically, vinyl skirting).

Today, I received a notice that I needed to make significant repairs to my RV. The implication is that if I don't do this, I'll be kicked out. Problem is, the RV is no longer roadworthy, I do not have the funds to make it roadworthy, and spending more money on this thing would just be throwing more money in a pit.

I need $3796 to pay this thing off. Once I do, I can sell it to an RV junker for pennies and be free of this burden. At this point, the RV with all its expenses costs me the same as an apartment. I've got lines for places to live that would be affordable and comfortable, but I can't move until I am out from under this trailer.

I know things are hard, but I'm a little desperate. If you know me, you know I've always done what I can to help those I love. I have thousands of 'friends' and 'followers'. I need maybe 200 of you to give me $20.

Thanks for your time. If you can help, I love ya for it.
