<div> <strong>Help Charles Save His Home While Disability Is Reinstated</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Hi, my name is Charles, and I never imagined I’d be in this position. But life has thrown me a tough hand, and I’m reaching out with deep humility and hope.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’ve always worked hard. For the past several years, I’ve been in the field of learning technology — helping companies implement education systems that serve thousands of learners. I’ve also spent years dealing with chronic, life-disabling mental health conditions that qualified me for SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance), which helped stabilize my life — until I was able to return to work.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>But on July 7, I was laid off. My mortgage lender kindly gave me a 3-month grace period, which ends October 1, and I’m now facing the terrifying possibility of losing my home.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>⸻

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Here’s the current reality:

</div>

<div>• I receive $300/week in part-time income.

</div>

<div>• I’ve already been approved for Medicaid and SNAP.

</div>

<div>• I’ve applied for reinstatement of my SSDI benefits, which I previously qualified for — but it can take months to process.

</div>

<div>• My October mortgage payment is due, with November’s right behind it.

</div>

<div>• I have no safety net. Every dollar I make now goes to food, dog food, and gas to get to interviews and support services.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>⸻

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Why I’m Asking for Help

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This isn’t forever. It’s just a gap.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’ve done all the right things:

</div>

<div>• Applied for every benefit I can

</div>

<div>• Taken part-time gigs wherever possible

</div>

<div>• Reached out to social services

</div>

<div>• Asked my lender for help

</div>

<div>• Built a plan to get back on stable ground once SSDI is restored

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>But I’m out of time — and I don’t want to lose the roof over my head while I wait for the system to catch up.</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>⸻

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>What Your Support Will Do

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Your donation will:

</div>

<div>• Cover my October and November mortgage payments

</div>

<div>• Give me breathing room while SSDI is processed

</div>

<div>• Help me keep my dogs safe and fed

</div>

<div>• Avoid foreclosure or a cascade of credit damage I can’t afford

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>⸻

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I Don’t Take This Lightly

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’m not asking for a handout. I’m asking for a bridge — from now to stable ground.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you know me, you know I’m fiercely independent, but sometimes life humbles you. If you’re able to help — even just a little — it would mean the world. And if you can’t donate, please consider sharing this link. You never know who might be in a position to help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With heartfelt gratitude,

</div>

<div>Charles
