Support Duras: mold recovery and safe housing

Donation protected
Since the fall, Duras has spent six months living in toxic mold and has moved four times. The mold illness has affected her immune system and brain function, and recovery is still ongoing. She is currently in safe, clean housing, but she cannot afford to stay and is leaving this month.

The long stretch of illness, housing instability, and underemployment has created an overwhelming financial hole, where even making minimum payments on credit cards is a serious challenge. Duras is reaching out for support to begin lifting out of what has been the most challenging season of her life.

Donations will go directly toward:
• Housing & rent
• Security deposit
• Vehicle registration
• Mold detox supplies

If there’s any extra, it will help ease the burden of monthly debt payments.

Money for a security deposit would be utilized immediately, for a ✨time sensitive✨ housing opportunity.

If you’ve been touched by Duras’s heart, friendship, creativity, or care—this is a moment where your support can make a real difference. She is ready to shift from survival mode back into her soul’s mission. ️

Thank you so much for reading, contributing, and sharing.

Consider becoming a monthly donor
If you feel moved to support but can’t give a large amount all at once, you can choose to make a small monthly donation instead. Even $5 or $10 a month makes a real difference, and the steady support helps to stabilize and plan ahead with more ease.

Whether it’s one-time or ongoing, every contribution means the world. Thank you for being part of Duras’ circle.
