I'm raising money for move in cost so I can secure housing.

Why I'm using HandUp for move in cost.

I am raising funds to secure a safe place for me and my son to live.

About me.

I moved to Michigan when I was 11. Now, 35, I am raising my son on my own due to his Dad being in jail. I am disabled and my son has mental aliments. I want to give my son a safe place to call home.

My backstory.

I had to terminate my lease at my last apartment due to unfit living conditions. I have no money to find another place to stay. Due to my disability I am on a fixed income. Between providing for my son and all of his needs and trying to survive through this difficult time it has been extremely hard for me to save for stable housing. I have been living place to place sometimes sleeping on the streets with my son. We lost all our belongings in storage while living on the streets.

My goals, moving forward.

After I am able to find stable housing, I plan to go back to school and study computers.

Other things I'd like to share about myself.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story!
