Help Us Make it To Fall

Hey everyone,

Late 2023 I lost my job which allowed me to cover expenses for my student loans, two cats, and rent for myself and my cousin who has been out of work since a year prior. I was confident my income would stabilize with only a minor hit to my savings going into the New Year because I was offered two jobs that would start in January and my cousin finally caught a break with a job offer in their field to work for the local government starting in February.

Fast forward to 2024 and things didn't pan out. One of the two jobs I was offered fell through. My cousin who was supposed to start working in February, has yet to receive a formal start date because the mayor of our city enacted a hiring freeze. Currently, I only make enough money to pay for myself and my pets. Supporting my cousin requires me to pull from my savings which is running out fast. It is now May and with my own job ending soon I can no longer holdout for something to change. With what I currently have in savings, it will not be enough to cover expenses for the both of us through the summer without additional financial assistance.

All money donated to this campaign will go towards helping me pay for the rent, utilities, and living expense for the both of us. Once I reach the fall season I will be able to pick up additional work and finally stabilize my income and rebuild what I've lost in my savings.

Thank you for reading this. Your generosity and compassion during these incredibly stressful times means a lot.
