Hello, my name is Sharhon. I have been a single mother of 3 boys for over 17yrs now. I am in need of emergency funds to pay our light bill of $2400. I am out of sources at this point. I did go for assistance threw Liheap energy program but they paid on gas bill back in Jan. 2022 due to time of the yr. and was out at the time. I accumulated such bill due to having to run space heaters all threw the house till I got approved for some assistance. And oh did they take a long time. My gas service did not bring gas until end of March 2022. I can’t get assistance on light bill until late Nov. 2023 when it starts up again. Now I have to…and must ask for a helping hand with this situation. I can not do it alone anymore. I’m begging at this point in my life!
Well…the hardship came thereafter being fired in April 2022after 4yrs. and 6 months of being employed. My 18 and 19yr old sons also worked with me there for 3 months. 18yr old got into a motorcycle accident and had to have surgery on his dominate hand. Split open from accident. I had to take off for his surgery and was let go a week later for doing so. But I was there as a mother should have been! He also was let go and didn’t get to go back. I received unemployment for 6 months to nothing at all was a strain. He did not recieve unemployment. My 19yr old had started his own life but… 5 months later he was let go after discovering he was my son too.
Trying to juggle all the bills and keep what I accomplished wasn’t cutting with one income of unemployment. This just put us in a dire need of money! Not having a car any more and lights been shut off for 2 months now. This has push me to the edge. It’s causing more damage to my family well-being than anything. Not able to clean and wash normally is one thing. But most of all!….it’s the getting water, asking to store food, and being too needy from near by neighbors. I am asking for help to so my 15yr old can focus on the positive and not loose hope. Your donations will really make a better day for us. Please! And thank you so much with gratitude!
If I may say, I’m not good at asking for help. I was once the giver and for some reason even tho I am in need bad I still feel a certain way asking. But liked to be able to pay for people stuff in line at stores on my paydays. Thank you in advance! May God bless you wayyy…more for your donations!
