Hello, I'm Carlos. I'm a full-time caretaker at a school, doing a job I love. I'm also a father to a beautiful daughter. I've always been quite content with life, enjoying the simple pleasures like going for walks and being out in nature. But recently, I faced a huge setback. A pipe burst in my flat while I was at work, causing the ceiling to collapse and the flat to flood. With no insurance, my landlady could only refund my rent and deposit, and I had to leave. Since then, I've been living in temporary accommodation, which has been a bit stressful.
My goal with Beam is to find a stable home. I've been looking at properties, but it's been challenging as agencies often require me to earn more than I currently do. I'm hopeful though. I believe in the kindness of people and that with a bit of help, I can secure a home for myself. I've rented before and I'm responsible. I just need that initial boost to get me back on my feet.
Knowing that there are people out there willing to support me in achieving this goal makes me feel truly blessed. I'm excited about launching this Beam donations page and the prospect of receiving help from people like you. I can't wait for the day I can finally rest my mind in my new home. When that day comes, I know it will feel really good. To everyone who donates, I want to say a heartfelt thank you. The world needs more people like you. Hopefully, in two years' time, I'll be settled in my new home, continuing to enjoy my walks in nature.
