Homeless With My 2 Boys
Donation protected
Hello my name is Marissa & my 2 children (Thomas & Massimo) has been homeless since January 2023. From staying with ppl that didn’t work out, to hotels to homeless shelters. It has been a long journey.. Most of that time I wasn’t able or allowed to work. We have been mistreated numerous times. I have tried my best I could as a mother & people don’t understand or care that work in these places. I had finally got a job that I like. However we just got kicked out of this homeless shelter we are currently at. (We maxed out infractions) & the staff don’t seem to care being that some show favoritism & they can just put want they feel on a write up paper. They use their position as “power” over us & that’s not right.. & me & my kids now have no where to go. I reached out to low income/base off income apartments etc & most say there’s a waitlist like 3-5 yrs. I haven’t got no help from these resources that are about housing. They all say the same thing. I’m looking for a 2 bedroom apt for my kids. My oldest struggle sometimes with behavioral issues & it’s best we have privacy. (No shared spaces) If you’re a mother I hope you can understand. Both of their dads don’t help me. I don’t receive child support & I haven’t received food stamps 3-4 months. It’s been difficult getting that now too. I would like if you can help by donating whatever you can to help me & my family. So I can get us into a home where the rent would be paid up for a while. Get help getting the home bills turned on. Gas money since I most likely may have to travel further distances now getting my kids to school, daycare, work… & most importantly food. Just to help us get on our feet. Even to help us in hotels for some nights to I get everything figured out. I would truly appreciate it. ❤️ I don’t mind answering any questions. I just been through this homeless journey long enough & I just want a stable place to call him for my boys.
