I am using HandUp because I am an 18-year-old high school senior and I need some help affording a place of my own.
I'm originally from Muskegon Heights but I've lived all around Michigan. I'm still in High School and I plan on going to college to study how to become an Entrepreneur so I can start my own business.
I spent 12 years in the foster care system. After 31 different foster homes, I was finally adopted. I spent 1 year at that house and when I turned 18 I was told to leave, I think because they would no longer receive money for me.
My goal is to go to school to learn how to become an entrepreneur and own my own business.
I will be successful!
I'm raising money for utilities so I can provide for my children and myself.
I'm raising money for security deposit so I can find stable housing.
I'm raising money for application fees so I can have stable housing.
