Donation protected
Hey y'all. I've been homeless now for about 2 months. I was living in Airbnbs when I lost my apartment due to truthfully unfair treatment and not being able to pay my rent on time
My son is 3 years old, and I travel on the Amtrak train an hour to pick him up as often as I can, which can interfere with my schedule. It messes with my focus when I'm not able to see him (currently do not have a car or good license record).
Due to these circumstances, I lost a lot of jobs this year, to say the least. I won't explain every detail on here. I am now in a shelter in Philadelphia and will be starting a job next week. During the day, I try to keep myself busy as I have a history of mental health issues, which makes it hard for me to really be there with the sleeping situation being thin cots and food options being minimal due to my food allergy (celiac disease).
I'm starting this GoFundMe to raise a little bit of money to help me stay afloat during this time (phone bill, food, basic needs) and get me out of the shelter into a PadSplit or roomshare where I can have better focus and feel more safe/take care of myself and my son. Please help me in this time guide myself back to stability. Anything helps, thank you.
