Help me maintain my independence and stay afloat!

 Hi, my name’s Phoenix! I’m a 37-year-old Black, disabled (chronic pain/fibromyalgia, TBI, and mental health issues), nonbinary lesbian. I'm still in the process of applying for SSI/SSDI (I have a hearing date for April 16th of this year), and am in need of catching up on my bills so I can stay afloat in the meantime.

I live in subsidized housing and thankfully, I have my rent covered, but I need help to pay my bills (electric, water/sewage, Internet/home phone), eat (I get food stamps, but between rising food costs and often being too sore and tired to cook, they don't go very far), pay for transportation (paratransit fare and occasional Uber rides), and feed my cat/ESA. I do receive temporary disability cash assistance from my state, but it's only $328 every month, and that's not enough). Any and all help is very much appreciated!

If you’re able, please donate to help me stay on my feet so I can continue healing and thriving!
