Begging Money

Financial Hardship Help

Being a single mother especially in today’s era can be extremely overwhelming. If you are one of those mothers who is doing it alone every day you know what I am talking about. It seems like the bills just continue to pile up and never end.

Researchers have said that just in 2015 year ending alone over 80 percent of the households in America that we’re single households we’re in fact ran by a FEMALE head of household which we’re mostly living very poor.

Many people may say well there is government assistance for them to get a grant but it’s hard to find and information regarding that said topic anywhere. So in hopes to help the single mothers out in the world this article will give you some insight on the different assistance topics we can cover including where and how to get a grant or scholarship. Also, you will read and see how simple it is to receive help with income expenses and medical insurance.

Are there really grants for a single mother?

Of course they do but these grants are not only for single mothers. However, that doesn’t mean there isn’t help for a mother to receive one. I know its mind boggling that the government hasn’t had any means created for money for a single mother that is actually in the shape of a grant. One thing the government does for a single mother is they assist them through a group or have set sponsors through a company, and sometimes they are covered by the actual income assistance completely.

Below are a few websites that will redirect you to free items that you can get just for registering on the website.

Low Income Assistance for Single Mothers / Government Grants

As I said there is not an official grant for a single mother available that is FEDERAL. However a single mother can go through federal programs and register and sign up for them. Those kinds of programs are usually for households with low income. Which means you would also qualify for Welfare. No matter what the case these are programs to help those who make below the limit and live poorly.

Below are different types of assistance based in the United States.

TANF – TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR NEEDY FAMILIES

TANF is a crucial for many low income families located within the US.

With TANF you receive a small amount of cash every month that you can use toward your food, rent, and other necessities. However you only receive TANF for up to 60 month limit.

If you are a single mother and you have children in your home who are less than 19 years old you are eligible for TANF.

SNAP – SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Food-stamps or SNAP as other people may refer to is financial help for meals. You can receive money every month to place food on the table if you are on low or no income.

For most of Americans living in poverty SNAP is potentially the only assistance they can get.

Research has shown that in 2015 SNAP benefits have helped at least 45 million Americans. Most of the ones who receive the stamps are under are up to the age of 18.

When you go to use your benefits for SNAP you have your own personal debit card to ring your groceries up with at the register. If you are interested in trying to get on with SNAP benefits all you have to do is fill and application out and send it in or take it into a local office that deals with SNAP benefits.

NSLP – NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM

This is a program that gives free (or discounted) food to students whose parent’s income is bellow a poverty level. The income needs to be at least between 130-185 percent bellow the poverty line.

Most the time if a person is a receiver of SNAP benefits their children will be accepted into this program for free lunches. But, that doesn’t mean if you don’t have or receive SNAP that your children are disqualified.

You need to contact your child’s school to apply.

TEFAP – THE EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Food for the American families who are in the poverty range not matter what the age.

If you have received food stamps before or any other program assisting you and helping you such as the ones in this article you could also be approved for this program.

You will need to contact your State distribution agency to learn more about the Emergency food assistance program.

Local Food Banks

A food bank doesn’t exactly fit into the whole “Grant” program area as it is actually a location in your town where you can get food if you are in need.

Do not allow you or your family to go without food. If you ever reach that trouble you can call 211 and ask them where the nearest food bank is based on your location.

More then 200 food banks exist with the feeding america foundation and they supply enough food to feed over 40 million people.

WIC – WOMEN, INFANTS AND CHILDREN PROGRAM

This program includes a package deal where you as a mother are able to receive healthy foods, whether you are pregnant or a new mother, and also to children who are 5 or under.

WIC is a program that is temporary and only used for a short amount of time – usually between 6 to 12 months.

EARLY HEAD START / HEAD START

These programs are for children up to 5 years old.

You can receive free child’s medical and dental care along with their schooling, and dietary needs.

Find your closes headstart office on their website or call at 1-866-763-6481.

Insurance for unemployment

This is a special program which will pay you weekly if you are unemployed and it had nothing to do with you for you being fired or let go. You will only be able to receive this benefit for maximum 26 weeks. Different states have different benefit rules. But most states will average out at about 45% of whatever the average weekly income is.

Single mothers who are out of a job temporarily can find solace with these benefits and can help make the burden less for themselves because this pay will restore what you have lost from losing your work.

If you want to try and get this started and opened for you, you will have to find your local unemployment office or apply on the website for this specific program. Most states will allow you to also try to sign up for this over the phone.

Section 8 housing

Section 8 is basically a program that helps a family be able to pay for their housing. If approved you will receive a voucher of up to 70 percent of your bills (utilities and rent). You are expected to pay the other 30 percent.

If you want to apply and feel you qualify you can get in touch with your local office involved with public housing, the HUD office.

CCAP – CHILD CARE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

This is a benefit for families who can’t afford to place their children in daycare while working.

You still have to pay a certain percentage but it isn’t a big lump of money. The less you earn, the less you need to contribute.

EITC – Earned Income Tax Credit

It is a tax benefit for people with low income. You could potentially get as much as $6,000.

If you normally have a tax rate of $1050 but you are allowed $5550 then you get refund of $4500.

There is a Children’s Tax Credit too for as much as $1,000 for EACH child.

LIHEAP – LOW INCOME HOME ENERGY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

LIHEAP is a program that is a one time help to help pay for heating / cooling expenses.

Most of the time this is for the disabled or families with children or disabled person in the home.

If you need any extra information regarding this topic you can get in touch through the number 1-866-674-6327 or a local number for your local LIHEAP office.

WAP – WEATHERIZATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Weatherization assistance program lowers energy bills for families in need. Usually the elderly and families involving children are accepted and put to the top of the list before all.

Your monthly income need to be below 200 percent poverty level.

To apply, find a local WAP center.

Medicaid

Medicaid is help with medical expenses. If you do not have health insurance this gives you certain benefits as long as your income restriction meets the level it should.

A lot of single mothers may meet the standards to be recipients of Medicaid even if you are unemployed.

Every state has different rules about Medicaid plans. You can find out exact requirements on this website.

Together with ObamaCare it ensures that even single mothers who didn’t receive any health benefits will now be able to have coverage.

CHIP – CHILDREN HEALTH INSURANCE

CHIP gives children without health insurance a chance to have health benefits all the way up until they are nineteen. It is for families whose income is too high to receive Medicaid benefits.

It provides every type of benefit you can think of — dental, eye exams, and even annual doctor’s exams.

Every state has its own rules. If you would like to learn a little more about this specific benefit you can call 1-877 Kids now (1-877-543-7669)

Federal Pell Grants

Aid program for students of up to $5,815 for those in need to be able to set foot into college.

This is the best opportunity for a mother who is single to finally be able to finish her schooling and finally continue in the workforce. The money is completely free of charge with no interest rates or paybacks ever.

You need to fill out an application and submit it for a pell grant and have it turned in on or before June 30th of every year.

Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant

Similar to the Pell Grant. If you already have had pell grants and you are at the top of the charts in need you will be first on the list to receive this. Depending on a persons needs that are wrapped in with their financial struggle will ultimately decide who will receive anywhere between $100 too $4,000 annually.

Charities

Charities can be a way to seek help for you and your children whether you are in need of food or clothing or even housing. A lot of charities around the world actually have their own food banks that they run and they will give you bags of free food.

If you go to salvation army a lot of the times they will let you sleep there if you have no where else to go especially if it is a result of violence.

Churches

Most churches will offer you food and clothes or maybe even a place to stay if you have been recently kicked out by the one you are living with.

To find information on this you should look through your phone books local listing or yellow page. You can also research online and see what churches are available to your area and call them and ask what services they do offer.

Loans

Single moms can receive loans usually relatively quickly but I would not recommended that at all. You could potentially go into debt and not be able to rise back from that.

Sometimes you have no choice because you have to fix your broken car or maybe pay for utilities and food and need the help right then. But you have to be able to pay that loan realistically quick.

Pay attention to your credit because if you try to get a loan through a bank or anyone they will check your credit score and see if it is even available to be able to place a loan out to you. If it is a loan that is for payday loans or credit card advances they will not run a check but you will end up paying more after fees and costs.

Line of Credit

If your credit is decent some people ask a bank for a loan personally. Most of the time this is a better idea then asking for a payday loan because if you need quick money with lower rates of interest this is it.

Personal Loans

On a personal loan interest is lower dramatically but you have to pay in instalments. It doesn’t really fit criteria for an emergency. Normally if you just tell them you do not have any more funds and that is why you need this they will turn you away. If your credit is poor you will not be able to even touch this offer.

Short term (payday) loans

This is a very popular type of loan. You may know it by the term “Cash advance.” The interest runs really high on these and it is a loan that is only for a small time frame.

This is a loan that would more then likely be considered if a problem arises and you needed to repair your car or had a disastrous dental emergency. You have to know for sure you will be able to give every penny back.

If you do not pay this type of loan back you could be in loads of trouble financially.

Credit card cash advance

Do you own a credit card? If so you will be able to get money from a bank as easy as 1, 2, 3. This is not a method that is highly praised though because as soon as you start taking money out of the bank the interest keeps rising and you also are charged for using and pulling out of the bank a fee. This is potentially the easier options if you do need cash asap but you have to pay it back and make sure you absolutely can.

When it is all said and done grants will not solve your money issues within your home if that is what you expect. To get a grant is definitely not easy it isn’t a walk in the park by any means.

If you are looking to get a more stable source of financially being stable you should probably look in areas around you or find a women shelter until you can get back up on your feet.

If you think you have all the time in the world you can apply for other areas of assistance such as Food stamps, HUD, and etc. They do take a lot of time and effort for someone to get back with you and let you know if you have been accepted and enrolled. Try finding a part time working job as a way to financially start becoming stable again.

The moral of this is you can not expect a grant to fall into your hands without effort and take all your worries away. They are only here too do one thing and that doesn’t usually fix anything with your financial setting.

This is all on you and what you decide, no one else can decide for you.

Caribbean Single Mom Cannot Purchase Property

 

I have applied so many times to so many financial institutions for house and land mortgage but I simply do not make the requirements and it is frustrating.

I am a single mom of two. Seven year old and five year old. I make about $US15K a year. I am looking to invest in a home for me and my kids which can also serve as a short term rental property for tourists.

The property I am interested in is listed at $US66K. I am really trying to get this property which I see a great opportunity for having an assest but because of my loan of $US24K and because it’s just me, I keep getting turned down.

I need help with two things. Either assistance with clearing my loan so I can become more eligible for home mortgage OR assistance in purchasing the property itself. Thank you so much for your consideration and looking forward to a favorable response.

Single Mother of 3 Girls, Divorced, Relocating

My name is Lydia, and I’m a single mother starting over with my three little girls after surviving one of the darkest chapters of our lives. I’m reaching out with the deepest humility and hope in my heart to ask for help as we begin again in Minnesota.

For years, I endured an emotionally and psychologically abusive marriage. My husband abandoned us—he left without warning, moving to London with his mistress, leaving me and our daughters behind. In his absence, I discovered he’d planted hidden cameras and microphones in our home, continuing to stalk and harass us from across the world. When he returned six months later, the abuse escalated into something no mother or child should ever have to endure.

Just over a month ago, after a long and painful battle, I was granted primary custody of my girls and permission to relocate us to safety in my home state. While that was a victory, I walked away from the marriage with nothing. I had been manipulated into signing a devastating prenup that left me without access to our shared assets. I am working hard every day, but I’m struggling to keep up with the financial demands of this fresh start.

Right now, I’m facing several urgent needs:

  • $4,000 to buy out of our lease in Las Vegas

  • $5,000 for moving expenses

  • Additional funds for essentials like furniture, clothing, and school supplies for my girls in our new home

This isn’t easy to ask. I’m doing everything I can to rebuild with dignity and strength, but I can’t do it all on my own. Any amount, no matter how small, would be a blessing and a lifeline for us.

If you’re able and moved to help, my Cash App is $LydiaDantonio. Your support would mean the world to me and my daughters, not just financially but as a reminder that we’re not alone—that even after all we’ve endured, kindness and community still exist.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading and for caring.

With love and hope,
Lydia

Broken but still believing

Hello,

my suffering has come to this. I am ashamed, so terribly ashamed of what I have caused myself but unfortunately I have no other choice. God is on long time vacation for me. I lived a nice life, I was a nurse in the NICU, I was looking forward to the future. I kept looking to the future to secure myself, to buy a small apartment.

This dream disappeared for me in 2023. I was looking for an opportunity to earn extra money, because after 10 years in the healthcare sector I reduced my working hours due to burnout and I was short of money. I came across a part-time opportunity on Facebook, a nice lady contacted me, explained everything to me, arranged it, and I started working on evaluating travel packages, I was a little skeptical but the customer support worked great, I earned my first money and was jubilant.

Everyone was nice, helpful, supportive. The communication was via WhatsApp, it was about the site navan-systems.com. I fell for it so much, I trusted the people I considered my online friends, I planned to get an apartment on a mortgage, I was naive, I thought that luck smiled on me until I put almost all my saved money ($ 20,490) into travel packages and I thought how it would come back to me three times. I filed a criminal complaint. And it turned out, after half a year, that this was an international gang, their IP addresses cannot be traced and they operate from Ireland to South Korea, several hundred of us were robbed and we will never see the money again.

This gang was so professional that even I, as a person who always had good intuition, was deceived. I prayed for my money to be returned, but in vain, I begged God, to no avail.

My world collapsed, fortunately I had a supportive partner by my side, but I was ashamed to tell him, to confide in him and I struggled with it alone. In mid-2024, I got pregnant despite contraception, I found out after 2 months, I didn’t plan to have a child, I wanted to work hard, to save up again. But I would never give my baby away. I don’t regret anything. I couldn’t work during my pregnancy, I was in a high-risk pregnancy. I could barely manage it financially (rent, utilities, internet, fees, …)

My beautiful son was born and unfortunately I was left alone to take care of him. After I confided in my boyfriend about my problem, he left us, instead of support from him I received a sentence. I’m managing it so-so. My financial support is $590 per month, apartment rent $400 per month, plus food, diapers, milk for my son, … and I’m slowly losing it, I’m at my wits’ end.

I can’t work, I have no one to look after my son, my family is not functioning, I don’t have money for a nanny or a private daycare and I don’t know what to do. Sometimes there are days when I eat very little or not at all, just so that I have something to give my son.
I think about what to do with every penny, I pray to God, I ask for an answer,… In vain. Therefore, gracious people, I ask for any financial support, if you have a little extra and can send it on, I will be infinitely grateful to you, it will help me get through this difficult time, Thank you.

Let each one give according to what he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion; for ‘God loves a cheerful giver’.

2 Corinthians 9:7

Single Mom to my 2 kids and Granddaughter

Hello I’ve been trying to keep a roof over our heads. It’s been a struggle our only income is My Disability. First our only vehicle decided to get a cracked head gasket. Where we live there’s no public transportation so I’ve been having to pay people to take my Son back and forth to school, Dr appointments, grocery store and anywhere else we have to go.

The first of this month I was informed that the house we lived in was sold and we had 20 days to move. I had already had to pay the bit of extra money we had for rides back and forth everywhere.

I have literally exhausted every option I have to find and rent us another place to live and trying to fix our vehicle.

I’m humbly asking for any help at all. To try and raise the $1500 for first month rent and security deposit. My first priority is finding a place for the kids and I to live. Then I will try to figure out the vehicle situation.

I truly appreciate you even taking the time to read this and even considering to help.

Sometimes I’m fine but something the flare up change from a variety of different symptoms. I have been still trying to find small side jobs to try to keep up with bills and I have applied to many in person and online jobs. I have been out of work almost two months and this is the longest I’ve been not working since I was fourteen. If anyone could please help or even give me information on anyone hiring it would be great appreciated. Thank you please share this.

Help send my Girl to College!

Hello there,

I am a single mom of a beautiful 18 year old girl. Its been just her and me since she was 9 months old when her father walked out on us and never looked back. The fact that we have made it here is an amazing accomplishment for us. There were many times I wasn’t sure we were going to make it. I’ve worked up to 4 jobs at once to try to make a life for us. I’ve done everything I possibly can for her. Last year in 2023 when she graduated high school I was overwhelmed with joy. The accomplishments we have made and the obstacles we have overcome to reach this point is crazy to think about. So now here we are and she wants to go to college for professional filmmaking. She is super talented in that department. She has won medals in our province here in Canada for her talents. I am so incredibly proud of her and the person she has become. She is not your typical teenager. She doesn’t drink or do drugs. She does not like to party. She has been working full time since graduation trying to make enough to fund her education. I have been doing the same. Stressing about how I can make this work. At this point I am desperate. Which has led me to writing this story. This girl deserves to be able to follow her dreams. I want more for her than having to work 4 jobs to make a life for herself. With the way Canada is going I’m not sure she has any hope to ever own her own home and live comfortably. We are going to be applying for a student loan but I don’t want her thousands of dollars in debt to do so. I am hoping for any little bit of help to get her through this program. I appreciate all of you reading my story and wish you all the health and happiness in the world!

Sincerely,

A mother trying to help my daughter make a life for herself

Looking to pay off old bills to start business✨️

First, thank you for taking the time to read my story. I’m reaching out today because I”m in a very difficult but transitional stage of my life… not asking for a handout to cover luxuries or unnecessary expenses.

I’m asking for help so I can finally move forward with my life, focus on building a future, and stop living paycheck to paycheck from endless gig jobs.

Right now, I’m weighed down by old bills that I simply cannot escape. These include past due utilities, credit cards used to survive during hard times, and basic living expenses that piled up when my freelance gigs weren’t enough to cover everything. No matter how many hours I work, it feels like I am just treading water, and the burden is crushing. Every dollar I make is immediately eaten up by minimum payments, late fees, and trying to keep a roof over my head.

At the same time, I have a very real plan for a better future. I have developed three strong business ideas that I am ready to fully launch, but I can’t do it if I am stuck chasing gig work every day just to survive. These businesses are not “get rich quick” schemes; they are realistic, professional ventures that I have researched extensively. I know they can succeed because they are built around real needs and services, like real estate investing and a non profit to help struggling families find a second chance in life to have a decent shelter and beyond basics.

However, to get started properly, I urgently need several important software tools; things like website hosting, design programs, CRM platforms, and project management software. These are not luxuries. Without them, it’s impossible to operate professionally and competitively. I have already built out much of the planning, branding, and structure, but without the proper tools, I’m stalled at the starting line.

Your donation would go directly toward two things: paying off the most pressing debts that are draining my income, paying the rent off for the rest of the year and purchasing the essential software and resources that will allow me to dedicate myself full-time to building my businesses. Once that happens, I can stop spending all my time chasing short-term gigs and instead create something lasting  something that can support me, create value for others, and pay your generosity forward.

I am committed to succeeding. I just need a real chance, a clean slate to start from. Even the smallest donation would make a huge difference in helping me break free and build the future I know I am capable of.

Thank you for considering helping me take this critical step.

Respectfully,

GA

My Story: A Mother, A Survivor, A Cycle Breaker

My name is Dawnell, and I’m a single mother doing everything I can to rewrite the story I was born into. I have three beautiful children—ages 12, 9, and 5—who are my whole world. Every day, I fight to give them the stability and love I never had.

When I was just three years old, my mother was killed in a car accident. My father, an alcoholic, was never able to be present in my life, so I was raised by my grandparents. I grew up searching for love in all the wrong places, hoping to fill a void that loss and abandonment left behind. That search led me down dark paths—abusive relationships, addiction, and years of feeling like I wasn’t enough.

But seven years ago, I chose a different road. I got sober. I walked away from the chaos. And I started to rebuild.

Most recently, I escaped an abusive relationship. It was terrifying. I left with nothing but my kids and my courage. I worked hard, saved every penny, and finally bought our very first home in a small town—somewhere I hoped would be a safe and wholesome place to raise my children. I wanted to give them everything I didn’t have: roots, warmth, security.

But just one day after I closed on our home, my older sister—my best friend, my rock—was hit head-on by a wrong-way driver and killed. The grief shattered me. She was the only family I had left. The emotional toll, paired with the financial burden of unexpected expenses, sent me spiraling. I’ve since been diagnosed with PTSD from the trauma of her loss.

Now, I am drowning in debt I can’t climb out of. I’m behind on everything—utilities, mortgage, basic needs. Foreclosure notices have started to arrive. I feel like I’m watching everything I’ve worked for slowly slip away, and I’m terrified. Not for myself—but for my children.

I don’t want pity. I’m not asking for handouts out of laziness or irresponsibility. I am asking for help because I’m a mother who refuses to give up. Because I’ve fought for every inch of progress I’ve made. Because I dream of being a voice for other women and young girls who have endured trauma and abuse—proof that pain doesn’t have to be permanent.

I want to be a cycle breaker. A supermom. A safe place. An example of what’s possible when you don’t give up—even when the world tells you to.

Please, if you feel moved by my story, consider helping me get back on my feet. Any support you can offer will go toward catching up on essential bills, keeping our home, and giving my kids the future they deserve.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

— Dawnell 💛

Don’t know where else to turn

I am at the end of my tether and I don’t know where else to turn.

To tell you a little bit about myself and my situation, I am a single mum to a beautiful baby boy, I work for the NHS and also have a second job working behind a bar on the weekends. I very rarely see my child, and I’m struggling to make ends meet and keep a roof over our heads. Childcare is crippling me, and I can’t afford to drop hours to look after him myself as I’m behind on my bills now. This morning I had a final notice through from a debt collector, with no means of paying the amount due.

My son’s father passed away when he was 4 months old, and I have no other family who can help.

I can’t believe I’m resorting to this, and I’m so ashamed to do it, but I genuinely don’t know what else to do. My PayPal.Me link is https://paypal.me/Sianny269?country.x=GB&locale.x=en_GB

I’m drowning… Struggling to stay afloat please throw me a lifeline.

I’m a 41 year old mom single moms of 3, This is not where I thought I’d be at 41 but the last 4 years have been the darkest times for me. I sit in the dark writing this at 10:30pm on a Thursday. I’m mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially exhausted. Personally asking for help like this is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I’m a single mom of three who has been fighting to stay afloat since life turned upside down in 2020.

During the pandemic, I went through a painful divorce that left me emotionally drained and financially vulnerable. With no child support and three children to care for, I used credit cards and payday loans just to keep a roof over our heads and food on the table. Between 2020 and 2022, I accrued over $40,000 in debt — not from luxury, but from survival.

In the midst of trying to rebuild, I suffered a physical injury when a man accidentally fell on me from 42 ft above me at Globe Life Stadium. Of which I couldn’t find an attorney to help with my case due to not knowing what his cause of fall was. I don’t believe him to even be alive but I was rushed on a stretcher to the emergency room where I have double whiplash, trauma to C3 and c4 vertebrae and electric shock. I have no insurance because I don’t qualify for government assistance by making $30 too much so I have not been able to seek proper medical attention and refuse to be in any medications that would only hinder my ability to work. Since then, my ability to work at full capacity has been limited. I’m self-employed hairdresser of 20+ years, but the instability (recession) has made it nearly impossible to catch up. I’ve applied to over 600 jobs in hopes of finding something secure and consistent — but nothing has come through yet.

Now, I’m being sued by creditors. I’ve considered bankruptcy, but something inside me still hopes I can repay what I owe — that I can honor my obligations and teach my kids resilience through action. I’ve always been the one to help others, but now I’m the one in need. I have no family support, and this is truly my last resort.

Your kindness — no matter the amount — would not just help financially, it would restore hope and breathing room for me and my children. Even sharing this means more than you know.

Heart In Need

Dear Kind & Giving People,

First, thank you for taking the time to read my story. I’m grateful for your time. My heart aches as I look at my financial despair. I’ve focused my life decisions on my two beautiful daughters while being a single Mom for many years. I don’t know where I went wrong.

I can no longer provide the life they deserve due to years of struggling with mental & emotional issues and little to no support from their father as we separated when my daughters were 8 and 3 years old.

We lived a simple yet great life to me. At the time being able to afford a modest house, a simple vacation every few years and food. Now I’m left to pay the entire cost of my home, vehicle and all expenses for my children. I work a modest paying job full time and have my entire life. I always tried to maintain a stable life for myself and my children. I’ve switched jobs a couple times, reaching for more financial independence with NO results. All the while, being told NO when asking for help from my children’s father.

The cost of food, utilities and housing expenses alone, drains my bank account every month and puts me in the negative. I’ve been using credit cards to get by and pay bills for years. I haven’t been able to afford food for a long time so I’ve put groceries on credit cards, causing great debt. I pay my mortgage alone and cannot mentally take switching jobs again in an attempt to reach for more money.

Every life decision I’ve made has been based around securing financial stability for my children and I STILL don’t have anything for their future.

I feel ashamed and desperate, but hope that someone has been where I AM, and may have something in their heart to give. I’m asking for any monetary donation you can make. Please help if you are able to. If not, please send love and healing to my family and hope I can find a way out of this financial hardship.

I am grateful and thankful you took the time to read my story.

LOVE ALWAYS
