Help Gilbert and Aslynn Find a Safe Home

Donation protected
My name is Gilbert McManaway. Aslynn and I are making this plee on behalf of ourselves and our cats Juno & Luna. Luna just gave birth to 6 new kittens. Although we had hoped that things would turn out differently we were sorely mistaken due to circumstances beyond our control, Aslynn and I find ourselves in need of a different place to live immediately. We have not even had sufficient time to become established in the community yet, having just moved to this area a little over a month ago. We have scarcely even had time unpack completely. My biggest fear is ending up homelessness and losing the few possessions that we still have. I am severely handicapped physically after I died twice from a heart attack in 2020 and had to be revived and stints put in place. If we end up without a place to stay I would lose my ability to make what little money I can using my computer skills. We need a place to stay no matter how small. We are very frugal and rarely, if ever, spend money on luxury items. Getting help via Gofundme may well be the only solution that I can think of that may keep the wolf from our door. At this point, I am open to moving literally anywhere an opportunity can be found to be available. Aslynn will find a job no matter where we end up. We are able to rent a U-Haul, although we lack the money on such short notice to cover the rental fee. I want to avoid putting our possessions into a storage unit and incurring further expenses we cannot afford. We have no vehicle so we may end up with no other option but to stay in a tent and lose everything we have left since we have no means of transporting our possessions if something does not happen soon. If anyone might have a van or a camper they would like to donate that may actually help more than you realize. Any type of help no matter how small would be a blessing and mean a lot as we know that many members have struggled also. We have such a limited amount of time to resolve this situation before the choice is taken away from us and we lose everything. Even if you cannot donate please consider supporting us by sharing this fundraiser, We need to support other Ohians like family and not be divided by controversy and debate. Thank you for your time.

We are happy to accept donations via CashApp, PayPal, Venmo or Chime also since some people do not prefer GoFundMe.
