Hi, my name is Kay and I'm currently fighting to survive homelessness.
This isn’t easy to share. Life took a sharp turn, and like so many others, I found myself without a roof, without stability, and without many of the basic things most people take for granted. I'm not asking for a handout—I’m asking for a hand up.
I’ve been doing everything I can to stay afloat—hustling, staying positive, leaning into hope—but the truth is, surviving on the streets is brutal. Every day is a battle to find shelter, stay safe, charge my phone, and keep my mind strong. I’ve made it this far, but I’m reaching out now because I know I can’t do this alone.
What I need help with:
Temporary housing or extended-stay lodging
Food and basic hygiene supplies
Transportation (bus passes, gas, car repairs if applicable)
A reliable phone plan to stay connected and apply for work
Application fees, resume support, job clothes, and interview prep
Mental clarity and support to rebuild a stable foundation
Why I'm doing this:
Because I still believe in myself. I still believe in community. I know that with a little support, I can transition out of survival mode and into rebuilding mode. I have goals, drive, and a vision—but I need help getting back to solid ground so I can make those things happen.
How you can help:
If you're able to donate, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you can’t donate, a share can go a long way too. Even words of encouragement or resources are appreciated more than you know.
Homelessness doesn’t define me. This is just a chapter—not my whole story. With your help, I can start writing the next part—a better one.
Thank you for seeing me, for hearing me, and for helping me hold on to hope.
With gratitude,
Kay
