Hi, my name is Kira. I’m a single mom to the brightest, most tender-hearted little girl named Ksenia. She’s eight, full of light, and the reason I keep going — even when I don’t know how we’ll make it through the next hour, let alone the next week.
Right now, I’m asking for help because I truly have no other option. We’re on the edge of losing the little stability we have left. I have no car. No family stepping in. No backup plan. No safety net. Just me, my daughter, and survival mode that’s been running on fumes for way too long.
I’m asking for a lifeline.
I’ve applied to jobs. I’ve stayed up late writing, testing, freelancing just about anything I can do remotely because I can’t afford childcare or gas money to get to a “normal” job. I’ve been resourceful, stubborn, and hopeful for far longer than most would hold out. But hope doesn’t keep a roof over our heads.
Every dollar raised here goes directly toward keeping us off the street, toward food, shelter, transportation, and any chance of getting back on my feet long enough to build something sustainable for my daughter and me.
I know everyone’s tired. I know the world’s hard for so many right now. But if you feel anything reading this, if you remember what it’s like to be scared and stuck and still trying… please consider helping. Even sharing this helps.
I don’t want to break.
But I’m breaking.
And I just need someone, anyone, to see us.
With all my heart,
Kira
