PLEASE HELP DISABLED LGBT COUPLE AVOID HOMELESSNESS
for background for those who dont know me, my name is j, i am a 23 year old transguy who lives with my partner (they are also lgbt, autistic, and live with a seizure disorder among others) and our 3 pets. we currently live off of disability and financial aid we get as full time students as well as anything else we can do to work to make ends meet.
however, our landlord is raising the rent AND tacking on ALL utilities in two months with no warning. we had been put under the impression that it would be much less than this, and with all of our preparation, were not ready. we still need to raise 550 dollars in order to avoid not having enough to pay our rent, and they are extremely strict here about being late. it is difficult to find rent relief in az, and we live in a competitive area.
this is especially heartbreaking as we had moved to arizona last september all the way from washington to help my partner’s mother after she had asked us to, only for her to literally kick us out in july because she suddenly no longer supported my partner being gay. this has been devastating and is dragging up all of those same feelings for her and it just causes worsening symptoms. we have no family that will help us out of this situation.
the good thing is with that we would be able to supplement it with our financial aid and stretch our budget far enough to make it another year here. if not, we really won’t have anywhere to go. trying to finance having a place to live has left us poor and in desperate need for help. please boost if you can’t help. i know we are all struggling right now. at this point i’m begging, anything, even less than a dollar would help.
