Help a Working Mom & Grandmother Catch Up on $3,400 Rent

My name is Sharale, and I’m a single mother and grandmother living in Decatur, Georgia. I’m raising and supporting a household of five, including my two daughters and two young grandchildren, ages 3 and 1. I’m reaching out because I’m currently $3,400 behind on rent after several unexpected hardships. My car broke down, I had to miss work because of a family emergency, and my hours at my hospital job became inconsistent. I tried my best to keep everything together, but the bills began piling up faster than I could catch up. My biggest concern is keeping a stable home for my children and grandchildren. I haven’t received an eviction notice, and I’m desperately trying to prevent things from reaching that point. I’ve contacted several organizations for rental assistance, but many have no funding available or aren’t accepting applications.
I’m not sitting around waiting for someone to rescue me. I’ve started doing package deliveries to earn extra money, and I’m beginning a full-time position at Grady Hospital on November 16. I’m working hard to build a more stable future for my family. I’m asking for help with my $3,400 past-due rent as soon as possible, before my situation becomes an eviction emergency. Any amount, no matter how small, would help me get closer to catching up and keeping my family in our home. I’m happy to provide proof of my rental balance privately. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any kindness you’re able to share.
