I will write from my heart and I hope the words that come to me will touch your heart enough for you to help me.My name is Chaya Mushka Milchtein, I am 18 years old and aging out of foster care in June. I currently attend Homestead High School in Mequon, WI. Let me tell you a little bit of my story leaving out most of the graphic painful details.Abuse in my house has been going on for many years before I managed to get into foster care. I was born and raised in an Orthodox Jewish home on Milwaukee's east side. By the age of 14 I was living alone in Brooklyn raising two of my sisters. By October of 2011 at 16 years old I was in foster care in Milwaukee. I tried with all my might to hang on to my religion and values as life started getting tougher.I came out as LGBTQ in December of 2011 and immediately got involved in the queer community. I started and ran the Gay-Straight Alliance in my high school for a little over a year and started my own LGBT Youth Organization, GSA Connections. I also began trying to find a job realizing that soon I would need to live alone and care for myself. My parents stopped talking to me when I came out and now I have not spoken to any of my 10 siblings that are at home for almost a year and a half.Today is a little over two weeks before I age out of foster care. I don't have a job even though I have done everything in my power to find one. I don't have that parents support that is so important at this crucial stage in a young person's journey. What I do have is a possible job opportunity and a lot of fear.How will I buy the things necessary to have your own place? Getting a job now won't help me save enough for a security deposit or the first month's rent. How will I get the money for that? Will I end up in a shelter? What now?Here is where you come in. This is close to my last resort. There is a wish list if you wish to help me get started by donating towards a specific item ( http://amzn.com/w/2UT796N1P7SNH ) or you can help by just donating money. It will all come to good use. Please help me get started and have a chance for success. I want to go to college. I want to work to help other people. I can't do this on my own and i can't ask my parents for help. You are the only one I can ask.If you can't help out with money then please at least take a moments to share the page and send a personal message to people that might be able to give with the link. Every dollar helps.Resources are also a huge help if you have any or know of any.Thank you for reading a considering helping me get a start.
