My name is Krista, I’m a mother to an amazingly perfect little boy, and I am in desperate need for help.

Since my son was born nearly two years ago, I’ve been struggling to keep a roof above our heads. I’ve jumped from multiple places (unsafe households), and finally managed to find a safe, secure place for us…but the price has caught up to me. I lost my last good paying job, and immediately went into a state of suffering. I’ve drained my bank account at this point, and can no longer pay the bills to keep renting this home for us.

I have lived in this town for twenty years, and have had countless, horrible experiences. From losing close friends, to even being sexually assaulted by one of them…and laughed at by police for “lying..” I do not wish to be here any longer. I am suffering, and my family who “cares so much” about my mental state and my child; they wish not to help us in any way.

I have a place to live but its 2000 miles away from me. The housing is substantially cheaper, and jobs are plentiful. This is what we need. This is how we save ourselves. But I can’t do it alone. I need support, and help from those who want to help us. Moving large items across the country is beyond expensive, but I have very little time before we are homeless. My poor little boy has been hurting himself, and the doctors don’t know why… they believe it could be from some sort of stress.. which is what I endure every day. I can’t stand seeing this perfect child hurting.

I don’t want money thrown at me for a pointless cause, because that’s not what this is. I need financial support in this moment, to better myself and my son, and keep us safe in a new home for a long, long time.
