A Helper needing help
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Juanita; I am fundraising for myself. Asking is hard, but this was my last result, and how I got here is even more challenging. I need help to get my car running again. I have tried everything. I bought it under a salvage title, so the recall can’t be fixed, and I need a new engine. You're probably saying we’ll get one, but I've been unemployed for the past five months. Yes unemployed from a job that I loved. I worked as a Case Manager. There I was a helper and an advocate and spent most days doing just that. Helping individuals focus on staying clean and sober, teaching them some of the needed skills and helping them become active, positive members of their communities. This issue started when the company I worked for no longer respected the staff or clients in such a way that made me very uncomfortable for my clients and me. So it was only appropriate that I left that company.
Well, I walked out and left. I was hurt and knew it would be hard, but I had to and will forever maintain my dignity. It’s been hard to pick up and start again after the verbal abuse. I don't know how I took it so long. Now I have to get back into the workforce. I have a therapist that has helped me. And now I face issues with my car. My car is out, I can’t move around to interview or go to doctor’s appointments, and there is no bus line where I live. I have never been unable to drive a car of my own. I need help, please, so I can get a job helping people again. Pray for my strength even if you can’t help me. Thank you
