**Journey to Light & Hope: Support Jess and Chic-Lectic Designs**
My name is Jess, and I'm reaching out for support, to future support the reaching out of others
Recently, I received a disconnect notice for my electricity, largely due to an unexpected and unfortunate event—a pipe burst in my ceiling. This lead to over three inches of water flooding my apartment, requiring over 10 industrial-sized fans running 24/7 for two weeks to dry things out. Despite being out of town and not at fault, my property manager has refused to help cover the costs, leaving me with an overwhelming $600 bill.
Adding to the complexity, I battle disabilities that make social interaction—both personal and professional—very difficult. I've recently been burned out of hundreds of dollars trying to find legitimate employment or any extra income online. Despite these setbacks, I've channeled my energy and creativity into starting my own company: "Chic-Lectic" Designs @ MetaphOracle.redbubble.com
My ultimate goal is to lead a successful Non-profit organization so my future agenda through this company involve becoming an anonymous entity that is capably of financially and mentally helping others in times of need or crisis through surprise donations.
For now.. my vision for Chic-Lectic Designs is for it to be a personalized, print-on-demand workspace, where anyone can get special event logos or custom designs printed on anything from shoes to shower curtains. I've created various designs and have a platform ready with apparel to be printed and shipped. However, the business has not taken off as fast as I had hoped and profit margins are VERY VERY low. Profits off of a near $50 sale are under $7. Also there is a new monthly admin fee, that without sales, i just can't afford...
With bills fast approaching, the cost of living, and the gigantic appetite of my two 70-pound pups, I have drained my savings and exhausted my resources and networking options. This fundraiser is my last resort, not to beg for money, but to offer my service in exchange for your support.
[ * CHECK IT OUT HERE!: --> MetaphOracle.redbubble.com ]
Please check out my page, where you can see my designs. I have many more designs yet to be posted, and I am more than willing to create a specific design just for you or your special event. You can even send me any image of your own and I can work with that as well.
For those who have a big heart and would like to see a girl succeed but don't necessarily need my services, any donation is greatly appreciated! I am an emotional wreck during these stages of my life, and it feels like I'm slipping in the wrong direction. It isn't easy for me to reach out like this—I have never asked for anything without earning it myself.
I am hoping for a little support and inspiration, not only to situate my finances but to get my head right. I firmly believe that our paths can be shaped by even the smallest acts of kindness, especially when you think no one is looking. By that, I mean we have the power to shape each other's paths... inspire to inspire.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and considering supporting me and Chic-Lectic Designs.
