Subject: Request for Financial Assistance to Prevent Eviction
- Beloved Philanthropist,
I hope this message finds you well. My name is Gerard Postwaite, and I am reaching out with a heartfelt request for assistance during an extraordinarily challenging time in my life.
This past year has brought a series of setbacks that have placed me in dire financial straits. My car broke down, I lost my job at Walgreens, and I am now on the verge of eviction. I understand that where I am today is the result of the decisions I’ve made, a little bit of luck—both good and bad—and the grace of God.
Recently, on January 6, I celebrated my 50th birthday. While I am grateful for the blessing of reaching this milestone, it has also reinforced my determination to overcome these challenges and build a better future.
Currently, I am receiving unemployment benefits, but a portion is withheld for child support, leaving me with limited resources to cover essential living expenses. Compounding this, the lack of a vehicle has nearly destroyed my ability to maintain my biweekly visitation with my daughter, which has been emotionally devastating for both of us.
Despite these obstacles, I remain ready, willing, and able to work. Prior to my time at Walgreens, I had already fallen behind on rent due to my initial car troubles. Since then, I have been blessed by the grace and patience of my landlord, Mr. Nick Harris, who has worked with me through these difficulties. However, the financial burden has become overwhelming, and I now owe $7,101 in rent and $2,021 in overdue utilities.
I am humbly asking for your support to cover these critical expenses so that I can stabilize my living situation, maintain my relationship with my daughter, and focus on rebuilding my life. With your assistance, I would have the opportunity to remain in my home, seek employment, and work toward regaining financial independence.
I deeply appreciate your time and consideration of my request. If you would like more information or documentation, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
