Help Pay Rent, Groceries

Hello Friends and Supporters, I hope this message finds you well. I am sharing a personal story with you and reaching out for your support during a challenging time in my life. Earlier this year, I underwent back surgery that required a lengthy recovery period. To my dismay, I had to undergo a second surgery in March. The physical and emotional toll of this experience has been overwhelming. Compounding the situation is the fact that my current job is contract-based, offering no benefits, short-term FMLA, or adequate sick leave and I work for the government so the certainty of me keeping my job has cause an immense amount of pressure. The thought of losing my job due to a prolonged medical leave compelled me to return to work earlier than I should have, all while enduring the pain and searching for a remote job that would allow me to recover at home without financial repercussions. Many have wondered why I haven’t taken the time to care for myself. The simple truth is that I am a parent with a 2-year-old son, and my primary concern is securing his future and providing for my family. My husband and I have a home to maintain and are resolute in our efforts to ensure stability for our son. Despite my husband’s hard work, there’s been significant setbacks and pay cuts , leaving us struggling to afford groceries and basic necessities. The surgeries, coupled with the days I’ve missed from work over these past months, have created a significant financial burden. Without stable income, I am falling behind on rent and struggling to provide food for my family, jeopardizing our housing security and our ability to meet our son’s basic needs. Today, I turn to you for assistance in raising funds to cover our rent and groceries during this difficult time. This support will not only help us maintain our home but also ensure that I can continue my recovery without the added stress of financial instability and the fear of losing our housing or going hungry. Your generous contributions will make a profound impact on my life, and I am deeply grateful for any support you can provide. Whether it’s a small donation or sharing this message with others, every bit helps. Thank you for your kindness and understanding.
