We never thought we would have to write something like this, but right now we genuinely need help. We are a couple trying desperately to get back on our feet after a very difficult few months. For almost a month, we had no stable place to live and had to sleep outside. Eventually, we found work and believed that this would finally give us a chance to rebuild our lives and become financially stable again. Unfortunately, after our employment ended, we received significantly less money than we had been promised or had agreed upon before we started working. What we had left was barely enough to secure a temporary roof over our heads. Having somewhere safe to sleep means everything to us after what we experienced. But paying for that security has left us with almost nothing for everyday life. Right now, our most urgent need is food. We are reaching the point where we are genuinely worried about how we will afford groceries and other basic necessities. It is also getting colder, and most of the clothes we have are summer clothes. After going through a period without stable housing with only a limited amount of belongings, we simply do not have enough proper warm clothing for the colder weather. We need basic warm clothes, shoes and everyday essentials. We also have current living expenses that we urgently need to cover in order to keep the little stability we have managed to regain. Our biggest fear is losing that stability and ending up outside again. We are doing everything we can to change our situation. We are looking for work and trying to create independent sources of income using the professional and creative skills we already have. But rebuilding a source of income takes time. Food cannot wait. Cold weather cannot wait. Bills cannot wait. That is why we are asking for help now. We are not asking anyone to solve our entire life for us. We are simply asking for some breathing room while we work our way out of this situation. If you are able to help us with groceries, warm clothing, basic necessities or our immediate living expenses, even a small contribution would make a real difference right now. You can help us directly through Revolut: https://revolut.me/myszalina The amount is completely up to you. Even a few euros can help us buy food or another basic necessity. If you would prefer to help with food or essential items rather than sending money, we would also be extremely grateful for that kind of support. We know that many people are struggling, and we do not take anyone’s kindness for granted. We simply do not want to end up sleeping outside again. We are trying to rebuild our lives and become independent again. We just need some help to get through this part. Thank you for reading our story. And if you cannot help financially, sharing our request may help it reach someone who can.
