Unhoused and Employed in California

Unhoused and employed


I've been unhoused since June 21st, 2024, in Oakland, California. I was at a shelter, St. Vincent de Paul in West Oakland, for the first 6 months. In December, I got put out for self-defense. For the last 8 months, I've been at the Concord Warming Center and not guaranteed a bed every night. I'm on every waiting list for housing from Santa Clara to Sacramento and everywhere in between.


I currently have two jobs; security for Event Staffing, and I am a Care Pro. They turned off my food stamps because I'm employed, but I only have multiple jobs because neither of them are full-time. I have to pay for; storage, my phone bill, food, and transportation, plus anywhere else I stay. I'm trying to raise money for food, transportation, phone bill, storage, and a place to stay for the nights that I can't get into the shelter.


The basic everyday necessities listed above is what these funds shall go towards plus a deposit and 1st months rent once I obtain housing. Anything helps, but this is what I'm asking. I greatly appreciate everything and all prayers.
