Hello compassionate supporters,
I never thought I’d be writing something like this, but life has a way of bringing us to our knees to remind us we sometimes need help—and right now, that’s where I am.
I was recently laid off from my job, and the timing couldn’t have been worse. As I was navigating the emotional and financial weight of unemployment, my only means of transportation—my car—broke down. After taking it to the shop, I was hit with a staggering estimate: over $9,000 in repairs. That number broke me. It’s not just a car—it’s how I got to work, to job interviews, to the grocery store, to doctor appointments, and how I’ve taken care of my family every day.
With no income currently coming in and savings quickly running dry, I feel like I’m drowning. I’ve been actively searching for new job opportunities, but without reliable transportation, it’s been incredibly hard to even make it to interviews. It feels like I’m stuck in a vicious cycle—needing a job to pay for the repairs, and needing the car to land the job.
I’m not asking for luxury. I’m not asking for a handout. I’m simply asking for a helping hand to get back on my feet. Every dollar raised will go directly toward repairing my car so I can return to the workforce and provide for myself and my family. If you know me, you know I’ve always been the one to figure it out. But this time, I can’t do it alone.
If you’re able to give—whether it’s $10, $50, or just a share—I would be incredibly grateful. Your support means more than words can express. I believe in the power of community, and I believe this season—no matter how hard—won’t last forever.
Thank you for reading my story, and thank you for being part of my journey back to stability.
With love and appreciation.
