Story:
Me and my family of 4 just recently moved in October 2022, after being given 30 days notice as our landlord of 3 years decided to sell their rentals. We had to use what money was saved and available to find a new home and pay for the costs associated with the move. Our expenses have doubled now as the rental market has significantly increased compared to what we were used to paying out for bills monthly. I am a stay at home mother of a 3 year old boy with down syndrome and 4 year old girl, currently almost 6 months pregnant with our 3rd child and have had a difficult time during this pregnancy. Dad works full time 2nd shift and we're just looking to make sure our children have at least one present to open on Christmas as our financial situation is no fault of theirs.
