Baby and Mom Need Emergency Assistance Facing Homelessness

Hello, I am 26 years old with a newborn baby and just need some help paying my rent before my eviction is finalized. I’m making the cringeworthy decision to ask for help from strangers I do not know because this is my last option and I’m desperate at this point in trying anything to reach for help. I do have a job; I have been employed for 2 years and never missed a payment, but unfortunately, my job does not offer paid maternity leave, so I have not been able to pay my May rent or June rent since I have no income at the moment. I was depending on using my May payments to pay May through the weeks and use my last pay, which would have been the beginning of June, to pay half and only be a little behind for June because my original due date was May 24th. I ended up going into labor on May 19th and had to have a C-section. My May rent is past due and was $1900, and my rent is now past due for this month and last month, totaling $2500 with late fees. I have applied for rental assistance through the state but was denied since I was working before I gave birth, which I don’t understand. I have tried reaching out to charity, women’s centers, and homeless shelters, but no one has any availability. The homeless shelter said that the limit stay is 1 night per person, and it’s not safe for a newborn to be in that environment. I have also been applying for at-home jobs in the meantime until I am cleared to go back to work. I have an interview next week. I also applied to be a DoorDash driver, but they are still reviewing my information, so there is no telling when or if I will be able to do that. I recently was involved in a hit and run right after I had my baby, so it put me at a standstill on trying to get cleared because my doctor has to decide if it’s safe for me to return to work. My C-section scar, I also have been looking around for help and selling my stuff as I don’t have any family or friends that are able to help me or anywhere I can go. I have never had an eviction, and I’m not the type to ask social media for help, but I am afraid that my newborn baby and myself will become homeless soon if I don’t figure something out, which is why I’m creating this fundraiser account. If you wouldn’t mind even just sharing this or donating, even if just a dollar, it would mean so much to me! If you also have any other resources I can try, that would help also.
