I ran across this cry for help on my neighborhood app.

I'm not in a financial place to help her, but at least I can do this. If you are able, please help this disabled veteran.

From her post:
"I hate to do this but I'm running out of time and options.

I told my husband I was leaving him a few weeks ago which resulted in a domestic violence incident over the weekend. The police came and helped me get my things out and a friend paid for a hotel for the weekend but I have to be out today. I am a disabled veteran and they gave me a list of resources to contact however I haven't made it through the whole list. It's $100 for another night at this hotel. Is anyone able to help me so that I don't have to go back home?"

The name of the person making the plea causes me to think the gender is female.
