Hi everyone, I’m reaching out again during a difficult transition in my life to ask for support. Since completing my Master of Social Work degree this summer, I have experienced several unexpected setbacks. My housing voucher is losing funding, and after experiencing domestic violence connected to my home, I made the decision to enter a domestic violence shelter while I work toward safety and long-term housing stability. Being in the shelter has brought new financial challenges. I am currently not working, and I am managing transportation, bills, food, personal necessities, and other everyday expenses on a very limited income. I am beginning the process of applying for jobs, but until I am able to secure employment, I am asking for donations to help alleviate some of the financial stress during this period. I also do not want this difficult season to stop me from moving forward. My next major goal is obtaining my social work licensure so that I can take the next step in my career. I would like to begin putting money aside for the licensing process, including the application, exam, and preparation costs. If I am able to gain more financial stability, I would also like to begin making progress toward paying down my student loans. I have come too far to allow these setbacks to completely derail what I have worked for. Right now, I am trying to create enough stability to get through this period, prepare for the next chapter of my career, and continue building the life I have worked so hard toward. Any donation, no matter the amount, would help give me some breathing room during this transition. If you are unable to donate, sharing my fundraiser would also mean so much to me. Thank you for continuing to support me and my journey. With gratitude, Destiny
