We Need Your Support and Prayers

My name is Amy Steele, and I am 36 years old. I am married to BJ Steele and we have 2 beautiful daughters. A little over a month ago, I unexpectedly lost my job and started applying immediately to every Indeed application, every job I could find. I received an offer letter from UCHealth, did my background check, my drug test, and everything, even got my start date. Just a few days before that start date, I received an email needing my National Registered or Certified Medical Assistant proof. I don't have that; all I have is my certificate from where I graduated medical school because the test costs $300. So, I asked the company if they could allow me to work, and I would take the test with my first check. They rescinded my job offer and left me back at square one. I interviewed again for 4 more jobs this week and am awaiting answers on whether I get the job or not.

Bj works but doesn't make enough to keep us above water. Unfortunately, due to these circumstances, my family, along with my 2 beautiful daughters, have been evicted, and we have nowhere to go. We have applied to housing but sonfar have not been able to find someone to work with us. The streets are scary, and my girls are in school. We just need your hand up at this time to ensure we are safe. My girls are my world, and we are devastated . They have asked me multiple times, "Mommy, are we okay? What are we going to do, Mommy?" And even though my answer is "I don't know," I tell them we are going to be okay.

So please, if you can find it somewhere in your heart to donate, it will go to getting us in a hotel at the least because we can't sleep in our car. I don't have any family, as my aunt raised me, and she died when I was 24. My dad is a lost cause; it's us against the world. Bj family doesn't help us. We have reached out to every organization available. We are on waiting lists; some are out of funds, others only help with food. We will gladly show any and all proof to show this is a true emergency.

I struggle with a disease called HS (Hidradenitis Suppurativa), which causes painful cysts, and it gets worse with stress. Right now, I have multiple areas of cysts, which is debilitating, but I push through the pain and the shame because my kids need me. My kids deserve a roof over their heads. I may be a nobody in this world, but I am praying someone will see me and help us, please. You may not understand how I am feeling, but I would give anything if I had family to call on in my time of need or to ask for advice or to hear it's going to be okay. It is very lonely and scary, but we are human; we are real people who need your help. My kids are some of the most amazing little girls who light up a room, and I will do whatever it takes for them.

I have spent my whole life taking care of people and asking nothing in return. I have been kicked when I am at my lowest and still give love and support in return, but I am asking you from the depths of my heart, can you please help us? I also have Venmo @Amy-Steele-44, last 4 of my phone number is 7667. Cash App $amysteele1015.

As stated, we will post all proof so you can see this is real and not a scam.

10/10/2024 Update:

the judge signed the eviction and we have until Monday 10/14/2024 to be out. I have been packing up the must keep items and have donated almost everything as I tried to sell them but was not having any success. I am very scared of where we will go or what we will do. I have signed up on waiting list for section 8, transitional housing, and many more organizations. I had a blow out today on my car and have to figure out how to get a tire so we can at least have the car to get kids to school and to work. life is really hitting hard right now and I could use a hand up. If you feel led by God and can spare even a few dollars we would be forever grateful. If nothing else send up all the prayers you can for my little family for God to protect us and supply our needs.

10/13 Update:

Today is our last day and come tomorrow morning we have to be out as the sheriff is coming tomorrow. This is so hard. I have been to every organization, every resource, churches, etc and there is some hope but not quickly it will take time as I am on waiting list. I have 3 in person interviews this week but I need a hand up to ensure I am able to shower and be prepared for these interviews. My girls are on fall break so I am asking please can you spare even a $1 to help get a hotel room even for a day or 2. I have been looking at RVs or campers which would be a blessing as it's not the streets. God I am asking you today to show people I am real and we need their help. I will always pay it forward and thank you for your consideration. All prayers are such a blessing.
