Help me pay rent!
Donation protected
I have now moved out of my ex's house and am couch surfing in a small apartment with 3 other trans women. However, between disability and bills I don't make enough money to afford rent. Unless a better option opens up, I may end up living out of my car again. While I would be able to manage living in my car during the summer, I would need to secure a place before Wisconsin winter hits. I still owe $8600 on my car and the payments eat up 75% of my paychecks each month. (I bought the car when I had a more stable job before transition). If I could pay off the car loan I would be able to pay rent and have my own apartment.

June 15 a roommate made an attempt in front of me and I no longer feel safe couch surfing here. I have only recently moved to this state and not a lot of options are open to me. I plan on having an orchiectomy soon and help with disabilities. If not for those things keeping me here I would leave this apartment. Any assistance will help me get safe and my own space

July 9 there are now 5 people living in this 2 bedroom. I have little to no privacy. I am finally getting into therapy, but it is all phone based which means I'm unable to talk about any concerns with 4 roommates present. Having my own space would greatly help my mental health.

Aug 13 Two of us have jobs. One working at Goodwill and myself stocking shelves part time. A third has been trying to get unemployment for the last 3 months and has been unable to get a new job. The other 2 are disabled and can't work. Between all 5 of us we only have one working vehicle and the registration of $105 is due Sept 17.
