Help Alisa fight for independence

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Alisa and this is my story.

The start of 2021 was great for me, feeling good about myself, my work. I was moving up in the ranks and making a bit more than I was used to, and saving it very well. The end of 2021 struck us with a surprise however... my mother, being a large provider for the house had to leave to take care of my grandpa-who developed some pretty serious medical issues, almost needing his leg amputated at one point. It is the start of 2023 now, and she has decided she will no longer make a return.

After paying for 10 months, everything caught up to me. I didn't expect to be paying for this long, since my mom was supposed to be back after a few months. this has put not only a financial but emotional toll on me. I ended up throwing in most of my savings, upwards of 10k. When I ended up getting a pay cut last year due to my depression and home life interfering with my work ethic, I then told my dad I cannot pay anymore. That I was beginning to live paycheck to paycheck to provide for myself and my cat, while he takes care of my brother and him. But we are now staring a bank letter and impending eviction notice in the face. And I need help, being that my mother and father are unable to. My dad most likely will not be able to keep the house, being that he needs to come up with another 10k to save it. In addition, the pandemic caused me to have no graduation party, which would've helped me kickstart the freedom most usually get. I need to move out, before anything else, for my own health, safety, and well-being.

My plan is to move into some trailers up the road from me, where I know a few friends live already, but I have almost nothing after all of this. I know everything I need for my place, and I can take my most basic necessities like bed, dresser, my tv, etc. but I need to come up with the funds to make my trailer a home, as well as cover my expenses. I don't even have a car yet... still in the process of getting my license.

I ask for any assistance, even with sharing this link. Little amounts add up, and I will also be selling clothes on depop in the near future to come up with more funds. I thank anyone for taking the time to read, donate, and share. Your help is appreciated more than you know in this fight for my independence.
