Mecca
After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a teacher's aide in Mecca and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing. I'm looking for a spare room for 4 months. I can pay $180 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have two work references. I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    thinking of you, Ghassan. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Antalya.

      Sending good thoughts, Ghassan. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Mecca.

            I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Mecca.
