Struggling Single Father of 2 Trying to Avoid Homelessness

Donation protected
I feel so embarrassed and a failure. I am not even sharing this on my personal social's I am so embarrassed. I dont know where else to turn. I am hoping someone reads this and answers my prayers.

My name is Miguel Rivera. I am a single father of 2 WONDERFUL children. My beautiful 6 year old and my 5 year old boy. I have been a single father for over a year know being the 24/7 provider/caregiver mom, dad, cousin, friend, teacher, etc you name it, im with my kids. I have been working remotely for the past 5 years to raise my children. My only help would be my dad and my brother (mom passed before my kids were born) but they live in Mass and I cant get there at the moment.

I recently lost my job without explanation. Come to find out, I have been replaced by someone overseas, as a way for the company to cut costs. I cant blame the business because its a business right? I just happen to be a casualty of that decision.

I have been staying a-float doing gig-work such as Amazon, and UberEats with the kids to make sure they have everything they need while applying to what feels like 100 places a day. I have yet to even receive an interview, but I am not giving up, I have a good resume, a great background. It's just hard.

Then I got the news today, my motor in my engine is no good. Now I don't have a car to stay afloat, no job, no way of getting money. I am applying daily but we are on are last legs.

2025 has been rough. My 5 year old son is on the sever side of the spectrum with autism. He has been receiving regular ABA therapies since he was 2 but for some reason on 1/1/2025 his Medicaid was no longer valid. Dealing with the US Healthcare system, we finally have active insurance for my son on 6/1/2025 but no ABA locations available at the moment and he is starting school in September.

I dont have money to pay for rent, I dont have a car, I feel helpless. I am not writing or using this AI tool gofundme is asking because thats fake and I cant do that. I am struggling as a single dad and now without a car, time ticking with my rent situation we are soon going to be homeless.

If anyone can help please I just need a break to stay afloat for my children.
