Hello All,
What I think you should know before you read or donate:
I am currently trying to dwindle my travel stock by selling or donating anything I do not need, have not opened, or no longer want. I'm still finding the best places for everything but I think Ebay and Shopify are what's best for me right now. Shopify is opening soon and will showcase all of my handmade crafts, as well as old clothes, accessories, and used books. Ebay will be a collection of various Knick-knacks and items I no longer utilize.
If you would like to get something from me specifically instead of just donating I will add the links to my linktree. You will be able to shop there when I get everything setup.
Thank you, Scarlett R.

Please help me leave my country. I am in need of moving abroad for a better life, a way to live, and to remain healthy. I am a creator and believer and my country is not the place to start a business or to continue any of my ideas. It hasn't been safe for quite some time now but I am in financial ruins and in need of asking for help due to my current circumstances.
I can not hold down a job due to various disabilities and my government will not see my case for an application to receive disability benefits. I don't make enough to save more than $20 each month and I need help if I am going to try to leave this country permanently.
I have started to give myself hope over the years and to keep myself occupied by creating various little crafts. Nothing I do is technically "professional" but it has my special touch of care that I hope people can see the benefit of my work, even if it is not a necessity. I crochet, knit, read, garden, study (currently herbology), scrapbook, collage, paint, draw, sew, journal, write, and jewelry make. Overall I should say that I am a creator. Always looking for new mediums to grab at and make into something new, even if I'm not great at it; I want to be able to make something that makes me feel good. Creating has been the only thing giving me hope over the years. The hope to see a better future, if not for myself, than hopefully to give to others. Receiving the money to leave my country would allow me to expand my hope to others and allow me to fully give back to my community in a way that allows me to feel stable and able to build on a solid foundation.
The government has always scared me for what it could or will do and now I see that the time for action is here, but without funds I cannot move anywhere or do anything with what I have. I need to leave for a better life, health, and overall freedom in wellbeing.
It's gotten to the point that I know my family and friends won't understand why I'm in need to leave but I hope to find treatments that are affordable and to live a more prosperous life away from home. I know that leaving will grant me the freedom I need and will allow me to be safe (or feel safer as the world continues to turn in such a way). I am not safe or healthy here and my country continues to manipulate what little I have left to give or take.
To leave my country would mean being able to find something freeing, healthy, and safe. I would be able to focus on starting a small business and creating a life that fits me in doing what I know I need to do and survive without pain. Leaving my country would grant freedom I haven't known and access to healthcare that I need (at least proper disability and medicinal treatments).
Thank you for seeing me,
Scarlett R.
