Urgent Help for Sarah & Myles: Car and Rent Crisis
Donation protected
Hello! We are Sarah Cox & Myles Johnson, and we are going through an incredibly hard time. I am currently working on finishing my credential program to become a special education teacher, but being a full-time student and student teacher doesn't leave any time for making money. We have struggled for months to make rent and bills as I complete my last semester, and Myles has applied for every job under the sun with no luck. The only thing getting us by lately has been being able to use my vehicle for food delivery, which gives us a chance to pay for gas and some bills. However, that is now not happening due to recent problems with the car.
Last month, someone hit our car when Myles was stopped at a light, damaging the area around the gas tank. I was already due for maintenance because both the oil and the check engine light had come on recently in the car, but I have had no money to put towards it. After the accident, the car started losing gas much faster, and we were afraid there was a gas leak. We stopped driving the car because we were told it could be dangerous. There is a $1,000 deductible to pay to get my car fixed, and it is in desperate need of an oil change. Due to not being able to make money the last couple of weeks, we are also behind on rent, and my bank account is -$50. We really need help to be able to turn our situation around, so anything you can give us is appreciated. Thank you in advance!
