Hello! My name is Roxann. I have been struggling with finding any type of assistance and I have worked so hard to save up to get an apartment. It is in Paterson, NJ. I used all the money I worked so hard for in a hotel while I tried to find an apartment. Well it is $1,750 to move in, with security deposit, but I only have $1,400 after I get my paycheck tomorrow. They are letting me move in thank god. They want the remaining $350 next Wednesday. So all my money has gone into getting this apartment. I really need help with furniture. I do not have a bed, air conditioner, microwave, table, ANYTHING. I could really use any type of help I can get. Even if it's help with some of my rent.I am very grateful for any help. Thank you so much for taking your time to read this and I hope you have a blessed day!
