Family on the Verge of Homelessness

Donation protected
Hello, our names are Sara and Matt and we are currently creating this gofundme because my family and I need just a little help. I have an 8 year old named Julien and a 1 year old name Novaleigh.  Heres our situation. Currently we all live in a tiny 2 bedroom apartment with my dad. He has rented this place for nearly 10 years through an awesome landlord it was privately owned. Well we moved in 2 years ago for a few reasons like my father health is really bad and I take care of everyone and everything in this home.  Our previous landlord Bryan sold the complex to a rental agency and we recieved paperwork that states we will either have to vacate the premises or try to reapply and keep in mind some of us would have to to due to occupancy limitations. Bryan our previous landlord allowed us to stay here without being on the lease with our dog and 2 cats. We have to come up with a miracle and just after the holidays too. All but one vehicle is broken down and sitting in the driveway as well. But thats not even the most concerning thing. I am currently pregnant with our third child he is due to be here on Valentines day Feb 14th 2021 and he will be born with a cleft lip and palate. I currently have to do a NST which is a non stress test weekly to monitor the baby as I have too much amniotic fluid built up and I'm having complications. We will have to travel to Salt lake frequently after he is born as he will be needing a few surgeries throughout his life. We are not as prepared as we'd like to be. This year has been especially rough on our family. There are things we still need to get for him. We are currently living paycheck to paycheck and saving is next to impossible we both work I do door dash and Matt is a diesel mechanic. Health and welfare say our gross income is just over the limit to get food stamps and so a good chunk of our money goes just to that on top of the bills which makes everything soo much harder. We have canceled everything and anything we can think of in order to help us save. Im to the point where I need to ask for help. I appreciate the time you have taken to read this if you are unable to help because I know we are all struggling this year sharing this is just as helpful. Im terrified of the upcoming weeks. We've never been so low in our lives I have to provide for my kids and that means setting aside my pride to ask for help. Thank you all for your support!
