🆘 URGENT HOUSING HELP NEEDED🆘

I’m currently working with a mother whom I’ve recently been helping with diapers and other basic needs. Right now, she and her children are sleeping in their car.

The good news is that she has found a place for her family. She now needs help raising the $1,250 security deposit so they can move into a safe and stable home.

I’m asking our village to come together and help us reach this goal. No donation is too small. Even $5, $10, or $20 will help bring this family one step closer to having a place to call home.

Donations can be sent to Cash App: $thevillageceo

Please put “Housing Help “in the memo.

If you are unable to donate, please share this post. Let’s show this mother that she and her children are not alone. ❤️🏠

Goal: $1,250
Raised: $0
Remaining: $1,250

We are a 501c3 tax deductible nonprofit- you will receive a donation receipt for monetary donations contributed.

When they ask what makes you different from others?!

I started learning AI in 2020, before a lot of people even knew what it could do. Back then, people were almost ashamed to admit they used AI. I kept learning because I knew it would eventually change the way we work and take over certain jobs. I said this was coming years ago, and now we are watching it happen.

Instead of being afraid of AI, I learned how to make it work for me. I’ve used it behind the scenes to build businesses, create content, make music, automate ideas, and develop new streams of income.

Now I’m building my own game/ cartoon.. Took me 5mins

You do not always need a huge team, a coding degree, or thousands of dollars to bring an idea to life.

Sometimes you need a vision, the willingness to learn, and the right tools.

AI is not replacing me. I’m using it to build the future I want. Keep watching🥰
