Why I'm using HandUp for rent.

I'm using handup after exiting the shelter program with my kids into a housing opportunity. I'm balancing making sure my family has everything they need while connecting to a program that will help me to stabilize my rental costs while living on a fixed income.

About me.

I'm originally from Pontiac and I've lived in the city all my life. I receive disability income and have worked doing hair to support my family in the past. I spend my time doing schoolwork with my kids and connecting to family.

My backstory.

I got evicted--and because I wasn't aware I had to go through the court process...well, here I am. I'm basically here just because I wasn't knowledgeable on certain aspects that I'm now learning about. The other places I had been to were awful--especially the residents, so I took the soonest way out of there that I possibly could.

My goals, moving forward.

My goal is to stay in my housing for my kids.

Other things I'd like to share about myself.

My kids make me happiest. When I got my Certificate from my Arts school, I was incredibly proud of myself. I don't really have a wildest dream other than just getting a home.
