Help a Family Overcome Homelessness

Donation protected
Hey friends and family.

Unfortunately, myself and the kids find ourselves experiencing homelessness.

YES, we are without a home. Back in July, we were told by our landlords that we needed to be out in 30 days because they wanted to renovate and sell. At that time, I had to cancel several jobs so that I could be home, pack up the house, and try to procure a new place.

This was made impossible since our main source of income was cut off since end of February. We have not received one penny since then and have been financially devastated ever since.

Long story short, here we are, first week of August and only have a place to live for 2 more weeks. I am working again, but the jobs I am doing are net 30, meaning I won’t see any of that money until September.

I have made a video explaining the nightmare (with more detail) that we have been living this past year, but due to legal reasons, I can’t share it publicly. Please let me know if you’d like to see it, and I’ll send you the link to view it.

In short, we need about $5k - 6k to get caught up, keep my phone on, my car insurance, and to secure a new place with deposit and first month rent.

In about 5 weeks, the job I have been working months towards will kick in and we will be able to sustain, but right now - I literally can’t do this without help.

Please consider sending us a donation for whatever you can to help us reach stability and to allow the kids to start the school year on time. (The temporary place we have to stay is about 65 miles from Nashville).

We appreciate it so much. We are all just walking each other home and we will literally never forget this time and the people who supported us.

XO
