Hi!! Thank you for taking a moment to read my story. My name is Alexander and I’m a dedicated teacher in SoCal who recently experienced a serious injury that has completely changed my ability to work and support myself.

I recently broke my jaw and had to undergo surgery. My jaw is now fully wired shut, and I am unable to speak, eat normally, or return to the classroom. My doctors have told me I’ll be out of work for at least six weeks until the wires are removed.

WHY I NEED HELP

Teaching is my passion. But being unable to work means I have no way to keep up with essential expenses during my recovery. I’m asking for help to cover:

• Rent

• Utilities and basic bills

• Medical-related expenses

• Food and necessities while I’m on a liquid diet

I’ve always tried to show up for my students and community, and now I’m humbly asking for support during this unexpected and difficult time. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference while I’m unable to work. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page would also help more than you know.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading, sharing, or contributing. Your kindness is helping me get through one of the toughest moments of my life.
