Hi, my name is Yechezkel Ziskind, and I'm starting this fundraiser with a twofold mission:

To support the homeless in my community — and to build my own life struggling with mental health and my inability to work a normal job.

I'm constantly in survival mode because of complex trauma that doesn't allow me to work a normal job. Through that pain, I've also seen how many people around me are living without basic necessities — no food, no clean clothes, no shelter, and often, no one who sees them.

So here's what I'm doing:

With your help, 80% of all donations will go toward direct aid to the homeless in my area:

The remaining 20% will go toward helping me, including food, transportation, and a stable place to live so I can continue doing this work.

This is about more than money. It's about reminding people that they are not forgotten.

If you can give, thank you from the bottom of my heart. And if you can't donate, just sharing this helps immensely.

With love,

Yechezkel Ziskind.

Here is the pitch and the business plan.

Hi, I’m the founder of YourWorthIt. I created this project because I know what it feels like to be stuck, to feel invisible, to live in survival mode. I live with complex trauma that makes traditional work impossible—but I still want to do something meaningful.

YourWorthIt is my way of helping two people at once:

the person on the street… and myself.

What Is YourWorthIt?

YourWorthIt provides care packages to people experiencing homelessness—

but this is about so much more than handing out supplies.

This is about telling someone, maybe for the first time in years:

> “You’re loved. You’re not forgotten. You’re worth the world.”

Because the pain of homelessness isn’t just physical. It’s emotional. It’s being ignored. Erased. Unseen.

That’s what YourWorthIt is here to heal.

What’s in the Packages?

Each $25 package includes:

Socks

Toothbrush & toothpaste

Deodorant

Water bottle

Granola bar

Lip balm

Tissues

Wet wipes

Band-Aids

A wristband that says: “You’re Worth It”

A handwritten letter that says:

“You’re loved, not forgotten, and worth the world.”

These aren’t just hygiene kits—they’re hope kits.

Where Is This Going?

Right now, I want to give out 640 care packages a month.

My fundraising goal is $20,000/month:

$16,000 goes to package supplies

$4,000 supports me so I can keep this going full-time

But YourWorthIt doesn’t stop at survival.

My future plan is to help people move out of homelessness—

by connecting them with jobs, resources, mentorship, and eventually, dignity-restoring work.

This is the first step toward that.

How You Can Help

If 4,000 people gave just $5/month, this mission would be fully funded.

One coffee a month = one act of healing.

This isn’t a giant nonprofit.

It’s one person trying to help others while surviving trauma myself.

It’s raw. It’s honest. It’s personal. And it’s filled with heart.

---

Because people don’t just need a bar of soap.

They need to feel seen. Heard. Loved.

They need to know they’re still human.

They need to know…

They’re worth it.

Donate now:

Every $25 = one full care package
