In Support of Nick and Kim

Nick and Kim
Hello family, friends, and kind supporters....we hope this message finds you well.
We are reaching out to share a challenging situation that myself, Nick and our 3 sweet,  loving loyal fur babies (our kids), Lilly, Buddy and Shoogy Boogy are currently facing.
Approximately a year ago, we were faced with some financial difficulties, as both Nick and I had to make a change in our employment, causing Nick to take a drastic pay cut and finding myself having a difficult time securing employment with enough hours as well as compensation for us to make ends meet. Unfortunately, 1 month ago today, we were evicted from our home and have since lost our jobs. We have been living in Nick's car with our three cats , struggling day in and day out trying to find emergency housing, resources, help from organizations both local and through the state, only to be told consistently that there is no funding available or that programs are no longer in place for our specific needs. We have no current source of income or family or friends who are able to offer any form of assistance. We are in urgent need of support. We have no money, no gas, and we are having a very difficult time trying to figure out on a daily basis where we are going to lay our heads that night, where we will find employment, and at this point how we will get . The cat's in the back seem to be content, but it's also not fair to them to have to go through this. They have nowhere to run around and play and be cats. This situation is really starting to take a physical, mental and emotional toll for both Nick and I and it's hard to keep a positive attitude when we feel hopeless and helpless as we have reached our ultimate rock bottom. At this point, we have to put our pride down and ask for help. Both Nick and I are very humble, prideful, hard-working individuals always reaching out to help others, never wanting to ask for anything that we need, and find it difficult to accept help from others. As we both, along with three kids, have no other choice at this point in time, we are desperately asking for some financial help from those able to lend a hand. We are seeking Financial support for Hotel for a few nights, just to be able to get a good night's rest, a hot shower, let the kids run around the room and play, and recharge ourselves so that we can concentrate on making the next step to rebuild our lives. We could also use the help for gas for the car, so that we can attend job interviews, doctor's appointments, Etc. Any help with food for us as well as the cats and litter for their boxes is also needed, necessary and greatly appreciated. Even words of encouragement, prayers and thoughts would be very helpful in this trying time. Thank you all for taking the time to read our story. Any assistance that you are able to provide will be greatly appreciated. I will post updates on any progress we make. Thank you all again, from the bottom of our hearts. God bless you all
