EDIT: KIND STRANGER HAS BLESSED ME. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. It’s amazing how I feel so much more human having a case of water, a box of ramen, frozen veggies, potatoes, cat food and pads. I feel hopeful. I will be back to pay it forward.

Hello Reddit. My name is Jayce, I am 21 year old college student studying English education. I have been working retail, UberEats, and substitute teaching while attending school full time. I have had no financial support from family for years since coming out as transgender. Usually, I am able to make ends meet, but this month has been extremely hard financially. The hours from Target and Ubering are not making up for the lack of substitute teaching days due to winter break. I have no food except for two cans of corn and a pack of peanut butter crackers and I have a half bowl of cat food left. I have been on testosterone for two years, and I cannot for the life of me figure out why my period came back, but I am bleeding into a kitchen towel folded and stuck in my boxers.

This is quite a long post, and I thank you for reading this far. I don’t expect anyone to send the full $40, I know December is a hard month for everyone, $40 would just be enough to get me all three items. If someone could send just $10 for the cat food, I would be grateful. I am more than willing to send screenshots of my bank account in a PM, but I do not feel comfortable just posting that on here.

My cash app is $jaycemb66

Thank you!
