Testimonial
This person has left the following thank you note:
I would like to give a most heartfelt Thank You to all of you who were kind and thoughtful enough to contribute to this donation. It really warms my heart to know that there are people in this world that are willing to give of what they have to someone in need. Especially someone they dont personally know . When i received the notification that my donation had been funded It completely turned my day around, my whole month around. The restaurant I have been furloughed from is still currently closed, and my unemployment benefits have been drastically reduced as of 3 weeks ago. I did not know how i was going to cover my rent this month, not to mention the late fees that I already owe them. So when I saw that this had been funded it removed the 100lb weight Ive had on my shoulders. Its so wonderful to know that in these crazy unpredictable times that there are people out there willing to help people in need. I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart, and if i have the opportunity to help someone in a less then ideal situation I will take from this example and do what I can to pay it forward to next person in need. Thank you all so very much!
Coronavirus: Out of Work and Need Rent Help
My Story:
I am a 38-year-old chef and I have a degree in culinary arts. Also, I have been working in restaurants since I was just 17 years old. It is still my greatest passion to this day, and I have appreciated every second of it.
After a long and hard career of trying to make it in the restaurant business with long hours and little pay, I've recently made it to the highest point in my career, working for a very prestigious fine dining establishment. Recently, I've relocated and started paying higher rent in order to maintain a reasonable distance from my work. However, since our restaurant is non-essential and we have no takeout business, we have been closed down, leaving me with no income during this time. The move that I've made prior to the pandemic has now put me in a financial position to not be able to cover my rent; therefore, I need help with paying my rent.
This funding would help bring me up to current on my rent and it would allow me to stay closer to my work, so that when restaurants do reopen--I will be ready to go back to work. I know that times are difficult for everyone right now and so I understand that not everyone is in a place to give, but even a little help goes a long way. Thank you all so much for your generosity and for your kindness.
