Chance to escape abuse!! I just need travel funds!
Donation protected
This is my single chance to escape an abusive household for good. I've gotten into contact with a family member two states away and desperately need funds for gas, food, internet, and places to stay along the way as I will need to travel alone for the first time. Just a couple hundred bucks could probably get me there if I buy some good travel foods and a cooler, as well as some emergency supplies like wipes and spare clothes. I barely have a couple sets of clothing to my name, my precious PRECIOUS phone that is my ONLY lifeline to the wider world and my single safety net in case it all goes wrong, a half-decent car that isn't really in my name, and a desperate need for medication to bring with me as I struggle with numerous personal health issues like chronic insomnia and covid currently.
Please, anyone. Anyone! Some generous benefactor, PLEASE see this!! If I don't get out, it's all over for me. If I make it to that family member, I can start my life again. 30 years old and I'm stuck under the thumb of a horribly abusive mother, have been denied every help option for transition, I've been kept weak and unable to even figure out things like my own taxes and bills, PLEASE!! Please, someone help, even a single dollar donated is more money than I'll have had to try to break out of here and be able to carry on living!! My own mother's been keeping me from figuring out something as simple as having my own bank account just to keep an iron grip on my life. Help a prospective escapee realize it!
I have a bank account set up now so I do have the ability to make use of the funding, please just donate!! Show some love!!
A bit of cash left over after I make it there to help with rent and keep up my food supply so I'm not being a leech while I look for a job that'll take on someone with as little experience and as many health troubles as me would be SO INCREDIBLY APPRECIATED. My heart will SING my joy for any donator charitable enough to help me out.
I'm 'Desnacktivated' on Twitter if you want to keep up with things as they progress! https://x.com/Desnacktivated
In total, 700 MIGHT be enough for my 3-4 day trip, for emergency toilet supplies, travel food, gas costs, roach motels/hostels along the way, and anything after that would be safety net funds and make it way, WAY easier to get to my uncle. Help me out in any way you can, like sharing this fundraiser around, please!!
Edit: we're at 1300!!! Thank you SO much for this outpouring of love, I'm only 700 away from having the rent money covered for a month, so I have the time to secure a job once I'm there! Keep helping, people, we're doing it!! We're actually doing it!!!
