Help Kristi Rebuild Her Emergency Fund

I've never done anything like this before in my life, but here goes...I'm Kristi, a full time single mom of 4 kids. Two college kids and two living at home with me full time. I recently had $3,000 cash stolen from my home; it was my emergency cash stash. In my old life as a married person, this would have been a frustrating situation, but one that would have been manageable to recover from, but in my new life as a single person who is 100% financially on her own, this is a devastating blow. My heart was completely broken to find that my emergency funds were stolen and I felt intense stress and anxiety because it's just not a simple task to rebuild a supply of money like this when you're completely on your own. The cost of living is just astronomical in this day and age as you well know and saving that amount of money feels nearly impossible.

This is by far the most vulnerable thing I have ever done. I try really hard to live a good life and put good into the world every day. I would be the most humbled and grateful person in the world if anyone out there felt led to help me rebuild my emergency fund.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
