Hey! My name is Jimmy and I’m 38 years old. I’ll start by giving background about myself. My five year old son lives with me, full-time. I was diagnosed with narcolepsy 13 years ago. I am a law enforcement officer and have worked for my current employer for ten years. The area I live in is very poverty stricken and that has a direct impact on the hourly wage that I am paid. After paying bills, there isn’t a whole lot of money left over to build up savings or have an emergency fund. Let alone extra money for special occasions or a random toy here and there for my son. My father lives close to me and babysits for me when needed. Many days, I only eat supper but I do make sure that my son gets all the meals that he needs.
The things that I need money for:
My house is in desperate need of maintenance and repairs. I do not have central air, so I have to use window a/c and fans to try and keep the house cool in the summer. The interior needs renovation on the walls, cabinets, proper weatherization, and a couple of new windows. To top it all off, I woke up to the sound of water dripping and found a nice puddle of water on the floor due to my roof leaking.
My car needs new tires. It also needs regular maintenance like brakes and an oil change. I think it’s been three years since I’ve been able to change the oil.
My son could definitely use some new clothes. I bought him some at the beginning of the school year, but more variety would be nice. I only have one pair of jeans and they have a significant amount of holes in them.
I am not eligible for public assistance due to my gross annual income (just under 40k) but deductions such as taxes, health insurance premium, and retirement take about 40 percent of my check. I don’t drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes. Nor do I use street drugs. I don’t spend my money recklessly, but food and other necessary utilities wipe me out.
All money received will go to all the things I spoke about. Thank you for your time and have a great day!
