Temporary Help Needed After Injury

Hi, my name is Anastasia, and I'm currently recovering from a broken right ankle that has left me unable to work or drive. The injury happened on April 26th and since then I have only been able to make $97. I was working as a cook and relied on tips, so I don’t have access to sick pay or other benefits while I’m out of work.

I had my second orthopedic doctors appointment today, May 12th, and they told me I need to stay in the boot for at least another four weeks before we can see if I can start physical therapy on the ankle at that time.

Because of the injury, I’ve lost my main source of income. Since I am only able to get around on a knee scooter, the only work I’m currently able to do is Instacart delivery, but that depends on when my boyfriend is available to drive and help me. I can’t do it alone right now because I cannot drive.

I’m needing help with $600 (BUT ANYTHING HELPS) to cover rent and basic bills this month—things like utilities, Wi-Fi, and insurance. I live with three other roommates, but we each have our own share of the bills, and I don’t have any financial support from family to fall back on.

I will be continuing to do Instacart deliveries when it's possible for my boyfriend to drive and help me. I will also continue searching online for things I can do to make some extra money from home quickly.

Any contribution is appreciated and will go directly toward covering the essentials while I wait to be back on both feet!
