First I would like to start out saying, “Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read my message/request.” As a young girl at 12yrs old I had planed and pictured what my life would become. I was going to get all A’s in school, my family didn’t have much money so sports were not an option, unfortunately because I loved Volley-Ball. I would not do anything that would get me in trouble. I knew from my families experiences that it would make it harder to get somewhere in life, like jobs and colleges, and even where I could live. I hoped to attend Princeton, for my writing. I new I would have to start working as soon as I could so I could save and get a vehicle and buy a home. Then after all that I would fall in love and get married and have many children and also open my home to fostering children.
I worked really hard and by the end of that school year I was no longer in special needs classes, and I had the highest grade point average in the school. I even got a medial from the president for it. I was so excited and proud. I was on the way to reach all my dreams. Unfortunately, when I was 15 my life changed dramatically. My abusive father left the home, my mother had a mental break down and tried to overdose. My life was forever altered. I began taking full time care of my mother, who because of the overdose, became completely dependent, with a child mindset. I had to drop out of school and babysit for money to take care of bills and my mother. We didn’t have any family around, well at least none that cared.
I do apologize for this long message, I just really don’t want anyone to have the wrong impression of me and why I am here.
I am a person who works hard, who helps others, even when I am barely making it myself. My mother passed just as COVID started. Since then its only been me and my children. I do the best I can, however its been extremally difficult to get ahead. I had to leave college before completing my last semester for Geographical Information Systems. I was working 2 jobs, volunteering, taking care of my mother and my first child. When I had my second child I was unable to manage everything else, so I decided to put my education on hold.
All of this is why I am here. I am asking for help. I have checked in to going back to school an finishing my education, that will finally put my family in financial stability. I have been struggling financially since the pandemic started, and have not seemed to have been able to get fully back on my feet and back on track.
My children are still young, I want to be able to offer them the opportunity to do sports and pay for extra learning courses in a field of study that interest them. I know my path to reach my goals, I just need help to make it possible.
I don’t have any family I could ask for help, and I spent all the time and energy I had in my children and mother, that I don’t have much of a social life. I again want to thank you for taking the time to hear my story and consider helping my family.
Thank you so much in advance and God Bless. paypal.me/vivid280
