Over the past 4 years, I have faced serious health challenges, along with mounting debts.

All this has led to divorce and job loss, at the age of 60.

My financial resources are depleted. I am having difficulty arranging alternative housing and am facing homelessness.

I have applied for unemployment benefits, but there is a 6-8 week backlog in processing my claim.

I am searching for work, but the dozens of applications I have sent (positions for which I'm very well qualified) have all been immediately rejected, most likely due to my age.

I have applied to a number of programs for assistance and am either immediately denied or face very long processing times.

I am in need of urgent help for the following items:

Mortgage payment for this month
Payment for moving and storing household goods
Downpayment for a small apartment.

In short, I am in urgent need of $10,000, to make it through to the end of this month. Please, anything you can contribute will be immensely helpful in making it through this very difficult time.
