We Met Our Goal! And What Comes Next.

Feb 06, 2026

Wow! I am absolutely overwhelmed, and I want to sincerely thank everyone who has donated, shared, or offered support. Thanks to every single one of you, we hit our initial goal of $1250! Reaching the first goal has lifted a tremendous weight off my shoulders. I am blown away by the generosity and compassion this community has shown me.

Because of your support, I was able to pay my rent for February and even address some of my bills for the month. However, as many of you know, I am working with legal aid to get my social security benefits reinstated, and that process is ongoing. I have decided to keep this fundraiser open because my illness prevents me from working, and I don’t have any indication from the Social Security administration that I will be reinstated by March.

I have set a new stretch goal of $2500. If you are able to continue sharing this page, it would mean the world to me to keep this momentum going.

Thank you for being a part of this journey!
