Hi, I’m Emma, 23, and I am raising funds to help cover emergency bills.

I am hoping to raise funds to cover bills and expenses for the next three months as things become particularly challenging during the holidays. I am struck with worry every day that I won’t be able to pay rent, groceries, or my car. I will break down the payments below as I want to be as honest and open as possible.

I have a little loving chosen family but not any support from my family. Things can feel lonely and hopeless, but we hold on. I do work and try my best; I work every day at multiple jobs, but in this economy, it is hard to keep up and never enough. I am a pet caretaker for a pet store, party princess, wig maker for a party company, and ice skating group/private lesson instructor. I am a competitive figure skater as well but have been put on a prolonged break as I cannot pay for ice, coaches, and time, etc.

I have been so desperate I’ve gone on some dinner dates with very scary men and am lucky to have come out alive.

I have three doctor’s visits coming up while also trying to pay off dentist and ER bills from sickness in the past year.

Anything would help, and I am grateful for anyone reading this far and having a care in my cause. I’m not one to ask for help, so seeing that anyone cares or is willing to help means the world to me. Even if you can’t donate, giving a share would be amazing.

Monthly Payments

rent - 950

utilities - 150

food - 100 a week

car payment - 175

car insurance- 200

renters insurance - 50

credit car bill - 500

These would be the major bills at the moment.
