Hi everyone,
I never imagined I would be in a position where I would have to ask strangers for help, but right now I’m going through a very difficult financial season and I’m doing my best to hold things together.
I’m a newcomer to Canada and over the past several months I’ve been trying hard to build some kind of stability for myself here. I came with hope and the intention of working, settling in, and creating a better future, but things have been much harder than I expected. I’ve been actively applying for jobs, sending resumes, following up, and doing everything I can to find employment, but despite my efforts, I still haven’t been able to secure something stable.
Trying to navigate life in a new country without a strong support system has been overwhelming. There are so many expenses that come with simply trying to survive and stay afloat, and it has been mentally, emotionally, and financially exhausting trying to carry all of this alone.
At the moment, my lease is coming to an end and I’m under pressure to secure another place to live. That has become my biggest concern right now. Between first and last month’s rent, moving costs, groceries, transportation, and basic day-to-day living expenses, I’ve reached a point where I truly need help.
I’m trying to raise $5,000 CAD to help cover:
– First and last month’s rent for a new place
– Moving expenses
– Groceries and transportation
– Basic living expenses while I continue searching for work
This is not easy for me to post. I’m someone who would much rather work for what I need than ask for help, and being this vulnerable publicly is honestly uncomfortable. But I also know that sometimes we all go through seasons where we need a little help to make it through.
I’m still doing everything I can on my end. I haven’t given up, and I’m continuing to search for work and push forward one day at a time. I truly believe this is only a temporary chapter, and I’m praying for the opportunity to get back on my feet soon.
If you feel led to help, even a small amount would genuinely mean so much to me right now and if you’re unable too, even keeping me in your prayers would be deeply appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and for any kindness, support, or encouragement you’re able to show. It truly means more than I can express.
