About this fundraiser

Hello! I am a single disabled mother of one 10 year old daughter, living in Washington State. 

We need to make a long distance move, and lack the resources. We are going to sell most of what we have, and try to keep the basics that we won't be able to financially replace for awhile. Beds, tv, recliners, also some sentimentals… So we will only need a small U Haul, and gas money. I can have a friend drive the U Haul for us and to help pack it into a storage unit, but will have to come up with funds for their trip home without us, and the unit.

While we can find a homeless shelter to establish residency in Wyoming, and then potentially qualify for help with a security deposit for a new apartment, it is usually not enough to cover the whole thing. If I can help it, we can raise enough to pay for a temporary room and avoid a shelter altogether. 

What we need is enough to cover fuel for uhaul and my car, the rental fees, storage unit fees, and security deposit. 2800 won't cover all of it but I feel I am responsible for some of it of course and am selling everything I can to help pay for it.

We need to relocate after living in the same apartment for almost the entirety of my daughters life, because the landlord is increasing our rent by 18% by October 1st (2025), which is above the legal limit. They rented a downstairs apartment to a prostitute who sells drugs and has been bringing bad company with scary behaviors, and they said they cant do anything about it. We also dont have family here, and I have been on my own since my daughters father left the picture 9.5 years ago. I need help and have a friend, who's all I got, there in Wyoming. My health is getting worse and we need somebody there for emergencies. 

Please consider helping us make this crucial move for the safety and well being of my daughter, and myself as well. My daughter has no family on her dad's side that ha sever been involved. We are completely alone, and I dont know what would happen to her if something happens to me. Foster care terrifies me. 

Anything helps!

Thank you!
