I am currently working with a young, hard-working, pregnant mother of 1 who is about to lose all of her personal belongings This sweet mom unfortunately lost all 3 of her jobs and got evicted all within the span of a month earlier this summer. Nonetheless, against all odds, this mother has continued to make a way for herself and her daughter without any employment while also working to finish school. This mother has thankfully finally obtained a job, however, unfortunately her start date is not until next month and her storage unit payment is already past due. Everything this mom owns of hers and her daughters is in this storage unit and losing this would set her back so much further, as she cannot afford to buy more clothes, furniture etc. at this time. This mother is working so diligently to get back on her feet and to bring stability back to her daughter's life and just needs a little help until she obtains her first paycheck. Any little bit helps so that this mom does not lose all that she owns in an already overwhelmingly trying season. Thank you for your time.
