Dear Friends and Good Will People,

Thank you being here.

I have to say that, I didn't know that one day I will be in such a platform. I have helped many before and touched many hearts. I am very ambitious woman, hardworking, self motivated and free will individual. I take one day at time and do my bet to better my life and those of others.

But, since 6 months now, I have sunk into a very difficult situation. Finding myself paying postgraduate education, taking care of two active and health children, girl 9 years old and 6 year old boy and settling those bills and everyday day expenditures. I have live with my children in my apartment since 2014. All was fine. I even graduated with my second masters in 2016 and now advancing to higher education.

In December last year, I went applying for change of immigration status to residence. Many of you will acknowledge that it takes a couple of months to receive a work authorization. While waiting for this important part that support family income, it extremely tough especially for income expenditure. I didn't have a problem all the way with my landlord, but out of worry and uncertainty began thinking that am actually lying even I show her papers. I will not blame her, she is a Senior citizen and taking care of wheel-chaired husband. So, this is her main source of income. I do respect my landlord and her family who live with her and we've never had a fight.

Thanks God two days ago, I received my work authorization card. I will to start working in a couple of days. But, it will be too.

Due to rental accumulation of six months, two weeks ago, my landlord filed an eviction petition in court. So, I appeared in court today July 3rd. Because, I didn't have money or feasible plan on how to repay that full amount, I prayed the whole night for the judge to allow me postpone the next hearing. The Judge set the new date to Thursday 12th.

Few friends who could help have travelled for Summer Holidays. Am completely stuck, in such a complex legal matter. I can be able to moving out to another apartment due to outstanding payment. Knowing that, there are good people that I don't know on the internet, I bumped in Gogetfunding.

As most of you may know, once the judge rules a n eviction, the that automatically goes in public records, and considerably hurts credit reputation, it is also hard to rent anywhere because most landlord can pull out this information. Am holding on hope of a bright future after working very hard in life but, this dark cloud seem to pass by. I can't handle seeing my children tears while we are on the streets while trying my best to make right choices that is meant to enhance better life. While waiting for a final determination for residence, we are not eligible for public assistance.

I need someone to listen to me.

Anyone, out there reading my long story have a choice to decide on what crosses their hearts. I will be very thankful for your prayers and support. At this point, I Say Thank you for your time. This is what I say a lot.

Sincerely

Nel
