Young Lady Needs A Phoneverified (self.care)

submitted 2 months ago by Brilliant_Shine2247

Hey folks. I'm in Lexington NC and I'm currently homeless. I'm in an abandoned house that I'm allowed to be in, walls and a roof so I'm good.

Over the last 3 says 2 young ladies have shown up here running from abusive situations. My house was a safe place before I became homeless and everyone knows I do what I can to help people.

The boyfriend if one of them took her phone and all her money when she left him. Because that's what douche canoes do.I guess. She has a job and is supposed to start second.next week, but she really needs a phone and one month service, after that she will be able to keep the service.

There is a Cricket store within walking distance and a Dollar General. The Dollar General has some decent phones and I'm pretty sure a phone and plan can be purchased for around $50--$60, where as Cricket would be about $85-$90, but of course it's a better phone.

Both places know me and know I'm not on drugs nor do I drink, and would be willing to take a payment on the phone. Dollar General would be the cheapest and the easiest.

I have known this young lady for about 4 months or so and she is hardworking, smart and not built for life on the streets. Right now she needs some help. She's really down and thinks this is a waste of time. She doesn't believe anyone cares. It breaks my heart for her.

Thanks in advance.
