Asking for help is humbling, and I thank you in advance.
I am asking for $8,000 to help me move closer to my children and family.
This request is to help reunite me with my oldest son and his three children that are currently homeless and living in a motel. My youngest son who is living in a high crime area and myself who is seeking a divorce from my toxic husband of 16 yrs., all of those 16 yrs we have been living with his parents.
This situation was supposed to be temporary but has turned out to be a nightmare. I cannot escape as he has spent most of our marriage unemployed, as he is selfish and controlling. I feel like a prisoner, not a wife. He is mean and often rude to my kids and grandkids, which breaks my heart. I stand up for myself and others, but I can’t change such an ugly hearted soul.
We all have income. My youngest son and I are both on SSI and my oldest son works, but we need help with relocating. Once we are settled, we can afford our new home.
Estimate of Moving Expenses
Rent $4,500
The houses I want to rent that are big enough for all of us and in our price range are ranging from $1,100 to $1,500. I would like to pay the deposit and two months rent to give us time to adjust to our new home.
Using the higher end of the price range, I am assuming $1,500 X 3 = $4,500 (Deposit plus 2 months’ rent.)
Other Moving Expenses
Truck rental est: $300.00
Basic Household Items: nothing fancy: 6 beds, dressers, washer/dryer, kitchen table & chairs, sofa etc…
Plus any unexpected moving costs such as hook up fees, covering an old bill that may have been forgotten in order to receive service, $3,200
Est Total: $8,000
The image below is a house I am interested in that is big enough for everyone. I would like to get moved and settled in before the grand kids have to return to school.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
