Verified by Travelers Aid Society of Metropolitan Detroit.
I am using Hand Up in hopes of raising enough money to fix my transmission on my truck. I used to earn income by giving rides and I've been struggling ever since it broke.
I was born and raised in the city of Detroit. I am a father of 5 and I enjoy sports. I am currently unemployed but I plan to get back driving once my transmission is fixed.
I have overcome substance abuse and have been clean for 12 years now. I have earned my GED and have been volunteering with Travelers Aid for 8 years now.
Moving forward, I would like to improve my physical health and find stable employment. I would like to become a truck driver.
I'm raising money for rental helo so I can maintain my housing.
I'm raising money for bedroom set so I can furnish my son's room.
I'm raising money for furniture so I can make my home a home.
