To my friends, family, and the community I’ve served,

After nine years as a dedicated Spirit Airlines flight attendant, I am writing this with a heavy heart and in total shock.

I went from being a proud and dedicated flight attendant to a suddenly unemployed without warning.

I had planned to retire with this company.

For nine years, I gave this job my heart. Like so many working people, even after years of dedication, I still live paycheck to paycheck.

Now, in an instant, that paycheck is gone. My financial stability and housing security are at serious risk. With the cost of living so high, being left without income so suddenly is terrifying.

I may be shaken up, but I am not defeated. I am reaching out for help so I can cover my basic monthly expenses while I search for a new path forward. 

Your donation will help me greatly to pay my bills that keep coming monthly…they do not stop coming even when my paychecks have.

It is very hard to ask for help, but I am standing in a place I never expected to be. Any support will make a real difference for me and my family during this uncertain time.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, for your prayers, your kindness, and any support you are able to give. From the bottom of my heart, I am deeply grateful.

May God bless you ten times over.

Carmen San Martin
