Hi, I am struggling with getting back on my feet at the moment. I have been living in my car for 2 almost three years now. I was first in California but realized quickly that the income I was making as a security guard working off and on 4 times a week until work slowed to only 2 days a week. With my dog I couldn’t just leave him in the car at work so I was subjected to only working graveyard shifts so it would align with his sleeping schedule. The cost of living is extremely high there. So I took all my savings and made a trip back to Arizona where I attended ASU for 3 years before I found the tragic news about my aunt and her son my cousin passing away so young, at the same time I was in an abusive relationship that I was trying hard to escape. I was going through a lot at the time and took a break from school. Now I am back enrolled in school to finish and get my degree. But I am camping in my compact car with my dog. I’m trying to feed him and myself without income at this time and no gas to move around. It’s been taxing on my mental health and even hygiene. Without having any support or family to help, it’s just me my higher power and my dog. I keep him a happy camper while I’m feeling hopeless inside. I got approved for food stamps but they won’t be active until the government opens again. I got hired to start full time work on the 20th of November and have a plan to save for an apartment for me and my dog. However until then I really need help with gas to drive to important interviews/ work, the library and park for my dog, money for food and hygiene products. I also need to renew my gym membership so I can take showers. Please if you find it in your heart to help, I would appreciate anything even $5 would help us. Thank you so much in advance.
