Verified by Mariners Inn.
I am fundraising for an old DTE bill that could prevent me from moving into my own apartment.
I'm from Seattle, Washington. I've lived in Detroit for approximately 2.5 years. I'm currently on SSI and I have not worked in over 8 years because of my disability.
Due to bad decisions, I found myself in a homeless situation, which brought me to Mariners Inn. After two years, I am prepared to move into independent living.
My next goal after independent living is to obtain a grant to go back to school.
Changing my life situation and putting myself in a position to help others makes me proud and happy.
I'm raising money for contacts/glasses so I can see better in order to gain new employment opportunities.
I'm raising money for a secuirty deposit so I can enter into a new home near my family.
I'm raising money for a work van so I can end homelessness.
