    Wrongfully Arrested. Emotionally Shattered. Trying to Rebuild. My name is Leon. In June 2024, I was wrongfully arrested and charged with a felony I didn’t commit. The case was dismissed, but the damage was done. That moment shattered my stability, my health, and my ability to work. I’ve been on disability leave ever since, trying to heal from the trauma while keeping a roof over my head and supporting my family overseas. I never imagined I’d be asking for help like this. But I’m drowning in bills, behind on rent, and struggling to afford therapy and basic needs. Every day feels like survival. I’m asking for support so I can breathe again, heal, and rebuild the life that was taken from me. How the Funds Will Be Used Goal: $15,000 Your donations will help me cover: $4,000 for past-due rent and utilities $3,000 for car payments and insurance (my car is my lifeline) $2,000 for medical and therapy costs $2,000 for basic living expenses while I recover $4,000 to continue supporting my family in the Philippines, who rely on me Every dollar helps me move forward. Every share helps me feel seen. Thank You Thank you for reading. Thank you for caring. Thank you for helping me hold on and heal.
