This is a sad story that fills me with shame and embarrassment; I need help.

I am currently homeless in downtown Los Angeles; literally skid row. I cannot work and may never be able to work again; I’m 57 years old. I need help with finances to try and get my life back together and regain hope for myself.

i am struggling to see a future and my mental health is deteriorating. I have worked to apply for various housing and resources and have begun receiving benefits; Medicaid and food stamps.

I share regular updates and photos from my life. I am transparent to the extent I can be and offer an unfiltered experience of being homeless. I also have a wishlist that I share in my updates.

I hope you will consider donating to help me not only survive but eventually thrive.
