The story
I am a recent college graduate in Houston, Texas, facing a pending eviction and need $1,500 by Monday to stop it. After experiencing a sexual assault, I have struggled to maintain my financial stability. I recently started an online marketing job and am scheduled to begin working at a law firm on Monday, but I need help bridging the gap before I can get back on my feet. I have exhausted my other resources and do not have anyone else to turn to. Any support toward my rent, transportation to work, groceries, or essential needs would help me tremendously. I am doing everything I can to rebuild my life, continue my career, and pursue my goal of attending law school. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any help you can provide.

What you survived does not define what you can build. Praying the eviction is stopped and that your new job is a calm, good beginning.
Starting a new job with an eviction deadline hanging over you is an enormous weight to carry. Hoping the rent is covered and that this new chapter gets a fair start.
Hoping Monday arrives with the eviction stopped and your first day at the law firm unshadowed. Getting back on your feet has taken real effort.
Getting to work and keeping a roof overhead while healing from what happened is a lot to carry at once. Hoping the deadline is met and that your law school dream stays alive.
A recent graduate should be looking forward to a first day at work, not bracing for eviction. Praying the deadline is met and that this hard chapter closes soon.
