The support I received was beyond what I expected. Not only did they help with the immediate need, but they also provided guidance for long-term solutions. I'm forever grateful.

I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Fort Portal.
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about rent deposit and first month, advice is welcome too. Good question.
Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Veracruz so I could bring a meal.
Rooting for you, Kariuki. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Take care.
Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Best of luck, Kariuki. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Pune.
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from San Francisco.
So sorry you're going through this, Kariuki. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Guadalajara so I could bring a meal.
Rooting for you, Kariuki. Hope you get there. All the best.
