Please help, I need a home!

Please help, I need a home!

From Amarilys Rosado

I am trying to raise money so that I can get a home since I will be homeless in October. I have nowhere to go and will be on the street in a few months in middle of a pandemic. I need your help!

Hello guys! I found several places that seem livable and within the budget listed here (some slightly less). However, that's not counting potential bank fees/interests. But they look pretty nice and in a comfy place where I can see myself living in. But I still need help and I am nowhere near the amount of money I actually need. I'm still trying to make money and am working the best I can for that but I still need more help. Please share this fundraiser and donate if you can. I know times are hard but any help is well received/appreciated.

Hello Everyone!This is very embarrassing for me... and I actually didn't want to do this because I feel that this is not your responsibility and I do not wish to burden anyone with my problems. However, as much as I have tried and struggled... I have reached the end of the line.On October 2020 (this year, just 2 months away) I am loosing the roof over my head. I've been staying at some friends house for a little over a year now. I intended to leave before the year mark but things haven't gone as planned. I haven't been able to land a job in months. I don't have much income from my handmade stuff/merchandise and I don't have family to count on. My father was never a dad and was very abusive. He went missing on 2012. My mother suffers from crippling depression and has a lot of health issues. She also haves no money and no way to help me. And the rest of my family could care less I exist.While I have more friends, most of them are in the same spot I am, struggling to survive, so I can't ask for any more help. I am desperate. In the middle of a pandemic, I am loosing the roof over my head. I'll be on the streets with nowhere to go. Me and my dog have nowhere to go. I have been searching for a new job, applying online like crazy to no avail. This is an emergency already. I don't have much time.I am literally pleading for help! Please, if you can help me and send some donations to help me get a home for myself, you have no idea how GRATEFUL I'll be!To give context, I live in Puerto Rico. I don't know what stability is since Hurricane Maria passed. I lost everything then. In 2018 my grandfather passed away. Perhaps the only real family I had left. He left me my dog. He and my grandfathers belongings are all I have left of him. In Puerto Rico, most places for rent do not allow pets in. So renting is pretty much out of the question because I just don't have the heart to leave my dog behind. I also need space for my dog and my crafting equipment for my very small startup business making handmade stuff. So the only real option I have (and that I've always dreamed of) is buying a house. It doesn't have to be luxurious. I just need a roof over my head. However, purchasing a house is expensive. Most livable houses are above 90k. Anything under would require just as much money to fix it. Money I don't have.So I am asking for help to be able to purchase a small home. Big enough for me, my dog and my belongings. I will be eternally grateful for any help you may provide. You'd be helping me to not go homeless in the middle of hurricane season and a pandemic.
