Emergency Fund For Bills and Medical
Donation protected
Hi folks and thank you for reading this. I’m reaching out for help today because due to bureaucratic nightmares, I am in dire need of your help to survive this month and pay my outstanding bills.
For the last few months, I have been working to secure a monthly source of income that would make surviving possible. It requires a lot of red tape however and and so it’s taking forever. While the program should be in place by the end of this month, that leaves me high and dry right now. As of now I’ve run through all my resources just paying the basics. I don’t even have money to buy the bare necessities of life that aren’t covered by social services (like any supplies that aren’t food, gas for my car, bus fare, or especially important cat supplies).
Then I got hit with emergencies including:
- Fire department breaking down my door which I’ll need to replace at least the lock ($300)
- Had a minor fender bender and have to pay for the other person’s repair ($350)
- Must see an endocrine surgeon to prep for brain surgery but she’s not covered by my insurance so I have to pay out of pocket ($175)
- Have to buy a counter top burner to make food until we can replace my stove which caused a gas leak ($125)
- Infection medication not covered by insurance ($100)
So between this and my regular bills, my situation is dire and immediate. And so I’m reaching out to you. My hope is by the first of next month things will have resolved and I’ll be more financially stable. But right now, I’m reaching out for your support.
I’m deeply grateful to those of you who donated in the past and anyone who chooses to donate now. And if you can, please consider sharing to boost my signal. Once again, my gratitude and thank you to all.
