I'm raising money for a security deposit so I can find permanent housing.

Why I'm using HandUp for a security deposit.

I am fundraising for a security deposit to find secure housing.

About me.

I am a single mother who was born and raised in Pontiac. I have two kids, one with a rare genetic disorder, who I care for full time.

My backstory.

I have found myself in this situation after fleeing from a domestic violence situation with my children’s father, and I have not been able to get back on my feet since.

My goals, moving forward.

My goals moving forward are to find stable housing that is accessible for my child and near good schools. I want to eventually go back to school and get a good job.

Other things I'd like to share about myself.

I am thankful to have been given this second chance for me and my kids, and I am excited and proud to see what I am capable of on my own.
