#personal emergency

Hey guys. My name is Leah Feaster and I am a disabled veteran who is going to school for my film degree. My disabilities include PTSD and nerve damage in my feet, which means I am unable to walk for long periods of time. I depend on my car greatly since I cannot get anywhere without it, I would love to walk, bike, and/or skate.

Recently, I took my car in to check for a possible flat, but instead of a flat being repaired, it was discovered that my brakes were almost gone. I wasn't expecting this and sadly my school loans have not come in yet and I am unable to pay for this emergency.

So I am reaching out today for a little bit of help, the bill is $500 and even if its only a dollar you can donate, it would be a great help. As I need this as soon as possible, so please donate any that you can.

Thank you all.

Hey guys. So I’m kind of in a really tight situation. My mom is kicking me out I have nowhere to go on a short notice other than my friend’s family house in Atlanta. The problem is I am about to have the police called on me to remove me and I have no money until next week. I just need a plane ticket as soon as possible.

I’m gonna update you guys once dad’s ok and I’ve finished Athena’s inking and shading…let’s hope for the best.

I won't wax eloquent on the details, but this is an emergency situation, so I figured I'd reach out to my Tumblr community for help.

Basically, I was supposed to stay in my university's summer dorms until mid-August, so I would have time to find an online job and hopefully save up enough money to start renting my own place in August. But today I received confirmation that I'm going to be kicked out and banned from the campus property in about 4 days due to some minor violations. You want to know just how minor those violations were? I took rolls of toilet paper out of public restrooms in various buildings on campus, and brought them back to my summer dorm (also a building on-campus and owned by the university). Why? Because don't have the money to buy self-hygiene essentials due to being out of work for over a year. (They accused me of 'stealing' this toilet tissue.) I also failed to attend a couple of meetings with university staff concerning my documented disability, and how it's been preventing me from completing all of the required room chores for residential students. (Yes, the university employs RAs to come into residential students' dorm rooms to check if chores have been completed, during the school year and over summer break.) A special committee for reviewing student conduct met to discuss my case today, and they decided that these two problems were sufficient reason to kick me out of my summer dorm and not allow me to set foot on campus property again until spring semester of 2024. By following the official process to appeal this verdict, I should secure myself a total of four more days in my summer dorm (from now until Tuesday of net week.) After that I will be forced off campus, and any personal belongings that I don't remove fast enough will permanently confiscated by the university. I enrolled at this university, and moved across three US states, to escape an abusive home and start my life over from scratch. As of now, I have no where to go after I leave my summer dorm. I'm in contact with a number of local people that I trust to discuss my situation with, and am pursuing every possible avenue to find a place to stay. (And I have a handful of close friends from out of state whom I've been updating.) My situation is desperate, so I decided to share my plight here with my Tumblr mutuals and followers. If you have any advice you'd like to offer me about how to move forward, my dms are open and I'd greatly appreciate your input. (Even if all you have to offer is some kind/encouraging words, I'd be more than happy to hear from you!) If you have some spare cash and are willing to send me a donation, my Venmo and PayPal handles are gonna be at the bottom of this post.

And if anyone suspects that this crisis will prevent me from writing and posting chapter 2 of my fanfic Incarnate...

DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. I HAVE STORY TO TELL, AND I'M GONNA TELL IT - ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
