KILLEEN, TX — Fallon Rufus was working at local bar and managing her own bartending business when the pandemic hit, changing everything.
“I’ve seen a tremendous decline in sales. It’s not because of marketing or anything like that, it’s simply because the economy has been shaken,” she said.
Out of a job for six months, Rufus was unable to get rental assistance or unemployment.
“I’m down with one arm. I’m trying my hardest. I’m not trying to give up but I need your help. To see that door is still shut in my face, it makes you want to give up,” said the Killeen woman.
