A Fresh Start in Canada — Help Me Rebuild My Life
Donation protected



Hello, my name is Eunjoo. I’m a tattoo artist and an immigrant who once called Canada home.
In 2021, I was diagnosed with ADHD and bipolar disorder. For a long time, I struggled in silence — unable to work, unable to ask for help. My mental health deteriorated, and with it, my financial stability.
In search of faster treatment and support, I returned to South Korea in 2024. While I’ve begun receiving care here, I’m now burdened with over $50,000 in credit card and phone debt from my time in Canada. I have no assets, no current income, and no family who can support me financially.
I want to go back — not just to Canada, but to a place in life where I feel safe, independent, and creative again. I dream of reopening my tattoo practice, reconnecting with my community, and living a stable, peaceful life. But without your help, I cannot even afford the journey back.
Your donation will help cover:
• Essential travel expenses to return to Canada
• Legal and administrative fees for debt relief
• Basic living costs during my transition
• Continued mental health care and recovery
Every dollar will bring me one step closer to starting over with dignity and hope.
If you’ve ever felt lost, you’ll know how powerful it is to feel seen.
If you’ve ever started over, you’ll know how meaningful a little help can be.
Thank you for reading my story.
Thank you for believing in new beginnings.
With love,
Eunjoo.
