This is very difficult to admit, but I'm facing homelessness, and I need your help.

208. Hi, grasswire...Wishadoo person here :)

I haven't been on DU much at all this last year for personal reasons.

As for OPs like this, since as of DU3 people are able to request help financially directly by creating their own posts, and since there are so many fundraising sites like gofundme available to create fundraisers, there's really no reason for me to do anything.

Wishadoo is currently on hold as I upgrade the site and get the related projects ready to launch. When people need more creative help, beyond money or even including money, I hope DUers will continue to use Wishadoo when it's up and running again. (One of the spin-off projects is a comprehensive resource directory, where listings of existing help and resources will be gathered.)

ColesCountyDem, I haven't read through this entire thread but I have no doubt you've received a wealth of informative suggestions and resource recommendations (hopefully including calling 211). Depending upon where you live, some 211 networks can be VERY helpful, surprisingly so. It can't hurt to try.

This community has saved many a member from dire situations...I have complete faith the same will happen for you.

I wish you all the best and send big hugs of support your way....
