I'm raising money for basic needs so I can afford healthy food and other items for my wellness**.

Why I'm using HandUp for my basic needs.
My medical expenses went up and I need to pay out of pocket to cover the difference of what insurance won't cover. In order to offset this cost, I am fundraising for food and other items for my wellness so that I can pay for my medication out of pocket.

About me.
I grew up in San Diego. I joined the Navy when I was 18 and got injured. I found myself homeless in San Francisco after my injury. I am now in the VA System and rebuilding my life. That's been a test unto itself for me and I need some assistance as the VA doesn't cover everything.
My goals, moving forward.
I plan on being a mentor to help other people out and help them improve their lives. I'd especially like to work with people who've dealt with similar issues as me.
Other things I'd like to share about myself.
I am proudest of having survived the military. That is one thing that has led me to want to focus on rebuilding myself.

I'm raising money for basic needs so I can celebrate my son's college graduation in May 2018, visit my brother recovering from a stroke and his family, spend some time in my hometown, and also visit some seminaries as I am working to return to college to study theology to prepare to be a chaplain.
