Urgent Help for Tae's Family to Stay Afloat
Donation protected
UPDATE: car insurance, Internet and one month of mortgage paid! Foreclosure proceedings have temporarily stalled. Thank you!! Let's keep momentum going!!
My name is Tae. I am a single disabled mom of three, all of whom are also disabled in various ways. Right now my youngest is still going through the process of her SSI being approved, and we are redoing our application for food stamps. I missed the deadline for food stamps due to the brainfog that comes from lupus and the aftermath of my strokes.
Some of y'all might recognize us from previous GFMs - living on the razors edge of extreme poverty in America often has you one bad paycheck away from homelessness. That's where we have existed for the better part of a decade now.
We are asking for help to keep the house, get caught up on bills, supply Christmas and a bit of a cushion to help with GFM fees.
An immediate payment by November 31st will prevent the foreclosure from moving forward and will help us tread water just a little longer. My lupus is not in remission and combined with my other health concerns, my work has become infinitely harder to manage in a healthy way. Other bills are due for shutoff within the next week. Thanks for reading and helping. ❤️
$1518.63 - immediate payment to prevent foreclosure (foreclosure moves forward December 1st) UPDATED: half payment on this made - foreclosure proceedings avoided
$759.43- December mortgage payment
$179.93 - Spectrum internet (shuts off on November 23rd) UPDATED: paid in full
$231.17- electricity (shuts off on December 2nd)
$111.12 - gas (not in danger of shutoff)
$304.91 - car insurances (lapses December 1st) UPDATED: paid in full
$500 - Christmas dinner, new shoes, winter supplies and gifts for the kids
$250 - GFM fees
Final note:
my "stretch goal" so to speak is an additional 850 so that I can work Galaxycon, which is typically a big earner for vendors and would start my new year off well. The show is the first weekend of December, is the last show i have booked for the year and the only money making opportunity i have until February. I already have a hotel and childcare lined up, so if i can get this booked i have the opportunity to close out my year in a way that might enable me to seek the healthcare goals I've needed for a very very long time.
Thank you so much and happy holidays~
