Support a Family in Crisis. Urgent Help Needed

More Info

I have been an employee for the City of Philadelphia for 31 years. This past March I went out on approved FMLA to become a caregiver for my husband who has now had 3 spinal surgeries. I found out on payday that I was terminated because, according to my supervisor, I abandoned my job. I was approved to be out until July 10, 2025 so there was no abandonment. I am currently seeking legal counsel but I cannot pay my rent. My husband cannot stand up much less work, and we have a 16 year old daughter. I am in the process of seeking unemployment but we need assistance now or we will be homeless.
