I'm a Single Mother & After Our Car's Engine Cracked, We Can't Afford to Pay Our Rent! Please Help!
My Story:
I'm a single mother with two wonderful children. My oldest son is 9 years old, and he's on the autism spectrum. He's a wonderfully creative child, but he does struggle with ADHD, OCD, and generalized anxiety disorder. In his free time, he loves to play video games and watch anime. His sister, my youngest, loves baby Yoda, and she loves watching cartoons. In order to provide for them, I work full-time as a receptionist at a local therapy clinic.
Currently, my kids and I are facing a major financial hardship due to our only vehicle breaking down. The engine in my car cracked, rendering it completely useless, so I had to use our rent money to put down a payment on a new vehicle. Without a car, we can't get to and from school and work, but now we're behind on our rent. Due to the rising cost of living and the expenses that come along with having two young children, I'm struggling to cover the rent that we owe after getting a new vehicle.
I'm doing everything that I can to try to get us back on track, but after getting a new vehicle, I just don't have the means available to get caught up on our rent. Our landlord is already threatening us with eviction, and we have no way to avoid that fate unless we have outside support. So, I'm very humbly asking for assistance with our rent so that we can keep our home. If we're able to get back on track with our rent, I'll be able to keep working and paying our bills. Thank you all for this generous assistance in advance, and I promise that we'll find a way to pay it forward in the near future.
