I'm raising money for a couch, gas and grocery funds, clothes and other household items so I can continue going to school and making it to and from work.

Why I'm using HandUp for a couch, gas and grocery funds, clothes and other household items.

I have ended my own homelessness thanks to a subsidized program here in Wayne County. I am still in need of assistance with some furniture so I have a place to rest at night, and maybe some sheets and pots and pans and maybe a couch. I am also enrolled in school now and working full time so any help with gas and groceries would also be very appreciated. Thank you for reading!

About me.

My name is Jasmine and I am 24. I was born in Michigan but I actually was raised and grew up in Texas. I moved back to Detroit, Michigan three years ago. I work at Burlington Coat factory and all my time is dedicated to my employment. I want to get back into school someday but I have to focus on my employment for now.

My backstory.

When I was younger and I came to Michigan on my own and did not have any support systems. This ultimately lead to my homelessness and I had to start fresh.

My goals, moving forward.

My goals moving forward are to get back into school, get into stable housing and get my license and a car. I am working on moving towards these goals but it is taking time.

Other things I'd like to share about myself.

I am so proud of myself for being successful with the things I HAVE accomplished over the past year and to be honest, I am very proud of the person I am becoming during these hard times.
