Physical Eviction Emergency!!! Norfolk VA.
Donation protected
I honestly don't know where to turn right now! This is an act of desperation!
Every dollar counts!
Please help!
Time is of the essence!!!
Back in March some of you really helped me get over a rather large financial hurdle and helped me to keep my apartment, and it is very genuinely appreciated. But this time it's a little more drastic. Norfolk VA has actually started doing PHYSICAL EVICTIONS! Regardless of what anyone else and in government has recommended. As far as I know Norfolk the only city in Hampton roads actually physically doing this, regardless of what the President or the Governor has requested. I went to court last week and asked for an extension which I honestly expected to get. The judge said "No" and now I am facing the sheriff coming to my door and doing a physical eviction next week if I do not come up with the money. Through the covid-19 pandemic lockdown I fell behind once again on my rent. My stimulus check did not arrive until late June, as well as my unemployment not kicking in until the last week of June. Between the stimulus check, the unemployment, odd jobs, and the selling off of many personal items, I was able to pay off Approximately 80% of that on my own. But as soon as the courts allowed, my management company had a summons on my door. I have given them what I can but I am still short quite a bit to avoid this physical eviction next week, and I have nowhere to go. I set my goal a little high in hopes I'm getting a little bit of a buffer for next month. $3000 is about the Rock Bottom minimum that I actually need to keep my home of 20 years. I have two excellent job prospects though neither of them would be available to start until next month, and I am still selling off personal items online and/or locally. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, any dollar amount will help, even $5. I am praying that there is some Guardian Angel out there that will step in and help with a larger chunk but honestly, anything helps! I know we are all going through the craziness that is 2020 right now and I appreciate that many are also struggling. I just honestly do not know where to turn except to my friends and the community. I am still selling off my belongings and will have a new sale posted online later this evening across several different sites. I am very sorry if you are offended that this is the second time in one year that I have have to do this, I just honestly don't know what else to do and as was stated previously, this is an act of DESPERATION! Please believe that this is not easy for me to ask this of my friends. Whether you can or cannot contribute, PLEASE share this link across as many social media outlets as you can, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, websites, ect... the more eyes that are on this the better chance I have. The more people that see this and share this, the better chances I have. Thank you all so much, you have no idea what this means to me. It is VERY GENUINELY APPRECIATED!!! God bless each and everyone of you. Thank you.
