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 three jobs: security at Badlands in San Francisco, security for AX9 Event Staffing, and I just got a job working security at the San Francisco Airport. They turned off my food stamps because I'm employed, but I only have so many jobs because none 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, a place to stay for the nights that I can't get into the shelter, and now to get to LA for my cousin's funeral. The basic everyday necessities listed above is what these funds shall go towards. Anything helps, but this is what I'm asking. I greatly appreciate everything and all prayers.
