Help TJ & Pearl get back on their feet (paws)!

Hey friends - this year has been incredibly difficult for me. It’s honestly hard for me to open up about things like this, but I’m at a critical point where community assistance is crucial for getting me back on my feet and recalibrating my mental health.

In April, my car was totaled by a drunk driver, and before that, I lost my job and health insurance, meaning I haven’t been able to afford my medications for Bipolar Disorder and ADHD. I’ve been actively searching for a new job, but the reality is having no car in LA, and no medication to treat manic depression and ADHD, makes that process nearly impossible. I'm hoping to raise $5,000 towards a car.

I'm behind on a few bills and the gas for my unit is being shut off on the first of the month. I just want to get through August when my apartment lease ends on September 1st. I'm hoping to raise $3,000 for that.

To sum everything up, my goal is to save enough money for a car, pay off outstanding bills and finish off my lease, and then spend time with my family back in Texas to recuperate, heal, and regain stability in my life.

Any support—whether donating or even just sharing this post—would be immensely helpful and much appreciated.

Thank you all so much,

TJ & Pearl
