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.

My mother who raised me by herself is turning 60 and I want to get her the birthday present of a lifetime so she knows how special she really is to me.

Hi there everyone,

My mother is turning 60 this year and over the last five years it has been nothing but goddamn rough for her, we moved to this city of Tamworth to be closer with family and get my grandmother the care she need but in the case of our “family” they have all but abandoned us and my grandmother had passed away due to severe blood poisoning at the end of 2016 due to complications caused by an abusive nursing home which happened to be 5 days after her 55th birthday not to mention only a few years prior m grandfather had passed away soon after her 50th. Ever since we moved here, she has been unemployed but not by choice, she has tried her utmost to get a job however to no avail and I strongly believe it is mostly due to employers (around here at least) having a strong bias against older unemployed people who want to work and do the right thing. In all of this however, she has always supported my want and love to do music as it is something she wanted to do in her youth but couldn’t due to taking care of her parents from a young age and her father thinking it to be a laughable and “cringeworthy” path for her to go down but this year, however she said to me, “Christopher, I think I wanna pick up bass but I don’t think we can afford it.” So that is why I am reaching out here. Even through ALL of her struggles, I have gotten luxuries which I far don’t deserve and I honestly think it’s high time I surprised her with one hell of a birthday present.  The bass of her dreams is the Spector Dimension 5 bass which runs up around $3100 and since she is new I’ll need to get her an amp so for now I’ll say $3100 is the goal but if we can get more than that then I’ll be beyond thankful because I’ll finally get to repay my mother for all the good she has done for me over the years and all the experiences she has tried to give me. and any money over that initial $3100 will be used to get her an absolutely killer amp if possible or at least a start towards it. I genuinely do mean this when I ask, please if you can, help me make her 60th, the best birthday she’ll ever have.

Single mom need help rebuilding home

My name is Shelby, I’m a single mom of a beautiful three year old daughter Seraphina. Over the last few months our world has been turned upside down to say the least. Not only has our rent went up tremendously, but my daughters dad has disappeared, and has sent no help or financial support for our daughter. I DoorDash to make extra money, and also cut costs of child care since it’s not reasonable in our budget, but we live in a rural area and I can’t drive an hour and a half just to work every time I go out to DoorDash. We are losing our place to live, at this point in time we are two months begind on our rent, our cable/ have internet has been turned off and next is our power. We have had to move back into my parents house which I am extremely grateful to have to fall back o, and for the most part that would be fine, but at the moment there are six other people living in the house besides us. I have purchased a shed to turn into a tiny home last year with tax money, I planned on finishing it over time but due to our current circumstance I need it as soon as possible. Due to extreme building material prices we are not able to begin finishing it into a place for us to stay yet. For us to move in we will bare minimum need insulation, electrical equipment, and enough to pay for someone to install and connect power to a pole. We will need lumber, Sheetrock, “mud”, and tape. These are all cost I thought I would have much more time to save considering this was supposed to be a fun project over time, but thank the Lord it was already purchased and I have at least something to work with. I wouldn’t have dreamed of having to ask for donations, but when you have children you often find yourself doing things you NEVER thought you would (not only to protect them, but also to care for them and teach them.) Any, and all donations will help! The more we can raise the faster we can get off of the couch we share and have a stable place we can call our own no matter what! God will provide for our family, and I’m hoping he would put it on your heart to donate towards my little family! I’m sure if you have a giving heart we will also bless you in return!

Debt, Divorce, Depression – Mental Health Support Should be Covered

So hard to know where to start and I feel ashamed to be on this site.

I don’t know whether to start at the end of the beginning.

As of today, I am GBP20,000 in debt.  I left my toxic and emotionally abusive marriage 5 years ago.  I used to be an out-going, fun loving person, but my husband destroyed my confidence so much so that I would spend hours daily googling suicide and what effect it would have on my children to live with that legacy.

I have up my successful career when my premature twins were born as they had a lot of health problems, and slowly lost my identity and my confidence to a very controlling husband.

Finally when my twins were 12, I found the confidence to leave. I moved into a flat, and had 50/50 custody of my children, but I live in a county that requires me to have sponsorship.  I found a job, and aged 45, started at the bottom and within a year was promoted. I have a good job, but do not earn enough money to support me and my 2 children.  I do not receive alimony, or support from my ex husband, but I did get the money for half of our marital home and bought a flat which I rent out to top up my salary and care for my children.

Since buying the flat I have had disaster after disaster and have not only not revived rent but had to pay endless bills for damage, sewage leaks.

I have never had a credit card before, but in the end couldn’t pay my bills, so took out a card.  Everything is spiralling out of control, and I have been hit by debilitating depression. I am off work on sick leave for my mental health and feel like I need support.  I have health insurance as healthcare where I live is not free, but it doesn’t cover my mental health care.  I need to go to the doctor next week, but if I go, I leave no money for food or bills.   I am trapped in a rental contract that I can’t get out of until May 2022 (the country I live in has strict laws.

I took a loan to consolidate my credit card debt and was then fined nearly £1000 to cancel the cards, and then yesterday was hit with an £1800 bill for issues in my flat that I rent out and still owe £1000 in a service charge that I haven’t been able to pay, and am now being fined late fees.  It doesn’t seem to matter what I do, I just cannot get on top of my financial debt.

On the surface I have a good life, but I am drowning in debt and I can’t see a way out. If I earned my regular salary I would be ok – not quite comfortable, but ok.  But with the debt, loans and now my ex husband, not only not supporting me but instead asking me for money, I am at breaking point.  I have become so overwhelmed and depressed that I can’t work, and have been signed off sick by the doctor – if I take more time off work, I will be on unpaid sick leave. I just don’t know how to get through today or tomorrow. My financial debt is crippling and every time I take a step to fix it I am hit by another tidal wave.

If anyone can help in any way, I would be incredibly grateful.  I feel ashamed to be on this site, but am hoping for some kindness for my kids and me.  I am a generous person and have raised money for charity over the years many times, and will always help those in need. Right now I am relying on the kindness of friends, but feel so indebted and can’t accept anything more, however desperate I am.

Thank you for reading and thank you for helping.

Newly Single Struggling Mama

Thank you all for reading our story.

I gave birth to my only son in April 2020, the first couple weeks into the pandemic, alone in the hospital, due to restrictions. We live in a separate province from the rest of our family, and still to this day we have yet to share any memories with with extended family.

And then Covid wiped out my workplace. Before the birth of my son, I worked on a contract with the IWK Foundation, a charity for the Children’s Hospital in Halifax. As it was a contractor’s situation, I was considered ‘self employed’. I never qualified for maternity leave benefits due to the nature of my work, and I was denied CERB benefits after 2 months.

I fell into a post partum depression rut, feeling isolated and road blocked.  The father of my son worked, but without my income, we were slowly falling further and further behind. I struggled to find a daycare, with covid restrictions who would take my 3 month old son so I could go back to work. I called every care center in our city, no available spaces for such a young baby, especially during the times. While it was a set back, I couldnt imagine letting my baby go out into that scary world to a private sitter, someone completely unknown.

I looked and looked everywhere for an evening shift job, but to no avail. I had every temp agency on speed dial. My stress level was through the roof, PPD in full swing and our relationship started down the path of destruction.

I decided I needed an outlet, and hopefully a way to bring in some extra money. I followed my passions and started a small home business, very slowly. I used my knowledge and limited tools on hand and put myself out there. I got some response. A couple orders here and there, a repeat customer, a great review. Christmas came, and some more orders came in. I was elated. It was just the pick me up I needed. It didnt pay all the bills, but it was a promising start, and I was able to buy a few Christmas presents for my boy. I kept pushing, one order at a time, building a following and I’m getting there.

In March of 2021 I was able to secure an evening shift position! Yay! I was elated to go back to work! The worst of it all seemed behind us.

I have been back to work for just over 2 months now, and being up with a babe all day and working all night, most obviously is exhausting. Yes, to be expected, but it felt so good to catch up. Things seemed to be heading in the right direction.

Until yesterday, June 1st. I came home for work at 7am, to swap out the car so my significant other could head into work for the day. Things were..off. He wasnt prepared to go to work, and the house had an air of gloom. Like a hitting brick wall, I knew. He was leaving, it had all become to much, the past year of stress and my constant exhaustion had left me a shell of the woman he met, and he wasn’t in love with this one. The only reason he had stayed previously was due to the fact that he could’nt afford to get out.

So here we are, my son and I, alone on rent day with nothing to our name, no childcare to watch my son overnight so I can work, and no vehicle to get to work, as we live in the country. We have maybe 3 days of groceries, my landlord is breathing down my neck, and my boss, while understanding about my situation, wondering how I will fill my shifts.

I know God has a plan for all of us, and our struggles are obstacles placed in front of us to grow from, but I’m reaching my hand out for him, and I feel like its waving in the wind.

I have never asked for help, but my family is not in a position to help us financially and being in another province – not physically either. I am just looking for enough to get us through this month while I get back on my feet-  to pay our rent and fill my boys tummy. We would need approximately $1500, our rent is $1100 and we are desperately close to being out of diapers/baby foods.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading about us, for any prayers you may send our way and any monetary donations you may be able to spare for my little man, and his very sad Mama. I have attached a photo of my little angel and I for reference.

Thank you, and God Bless.

Fresh start for my kids and I

I don’t know where to start to be honest. I am in an abusive marriage and need to get out with my children so we can get away from this toxic situation. I met my husband when I was 16 and he was 19. He was joining the military when I met him. So you can imagine our relationship went pretty fast like alot of military relationships. So after a year of dating we decided to get married. All without ever living with eachother before hand. And I realized that was a big problem. After we got married and I moved in with him and my already 2 year old daughter. Which she is not biological his but he took her in as his own. Anyways after we had moved in is when things started going bad. My husband and I were verbally arguing all the time. He would get angry cause the house wasn’t completely clean when he got home from work. Even though I was cleaning and taking care of my daughter while he was at duty in the military. I became pregnant with my 2nd child about a month of moving in. Which as you could imagine made things a little more stressful for me. I was still very excited, my husband was not though however. When I told him he was very rude and said ” great another mouth to feed” . The verbal fighting got worse as he would start accusing me of cheating on him and he didn’t fully believe that the baby was his. He started also begging me for bedroom relations even though further into my pregnancy the more I wasn’t feeling good. And the begging started to become demanding to just taking. I finally had my first son. Which my husband refused to cut his umbilical cord or even hold him after he was born. My husband ot discharged from the military due to medical problems. We moved back to our home state. We’re things started to get physically abusive and sexually towards me. He was constantly trying to cut me from my family. Making me feel crazy even asking him to cuddle with me. Blaming me for every little thing that went wrong. As we were homeless for 2 years after coming home. I kept looking for work while taking care of our 2 kids and trying to find us places to live. I finally got a job and we got a place. He made me put the money in his account so he could control what happened with my money. Fast forward another 4 years and I had my last baby. My baby boy. My husband once again wanted nothing to do with him. All 3 of my kids have unfortunately seen the abuse my husband has done towards me and of course me reacting to his abuse so I haven’t been in the best state either. I did finally leave 2 years ago. Moved in with my mom to take care of her and start anew. However my mom ended up passing away last year. Which forced me and my kids to move back in with my husband. And the abuse started all over again but now he has a tracker on my phone. A camera outside our house. I am not allowed to work or have any money. I’m barley allowed to leave my house now or even see my last 2 family members I have in my life. I’m expected to have the whole house clean before he comes home from.work. I’m expected to take care of our 3 kids and his cat by myself. Because of all this I haven’t been the parent my kids deserve. I am not the woman I know I am. I feel so defeated and I am worthless. I want so much more for my kids and I want out. But I have no where to go. As he has cut me from my friends and family. And he knows that. He threatens to throw out me and our kids on a weekly basis when he gets mad at me for anything. Try to treat my kids like they are slaves that have no feelings and should know how to act like an adult even though they are 11, 8 and 2. My kids and I can not do it anymore. I am asking for help so I can get a hotel for just a little while or enough money for a room to rent and money for some stuff we may need as my husband wouldn’t most likely.not let me take anything that is ours cause in his eyes it’s his house and he pays for everything so everything is his. I do understand that scammers have used abuse as an excuse to get money and not use it on what they said they would but that is not my case. I have evidence of all his abuse and plan on when I can get out filling for divorce and full custody and have this evidence for when that time comes. Anything helps. Thank you so much for listening to my story

Financial help to support my 4 children

I’m rather embarrassed to even ask for help. I’m the mother of 4 amazing, sweet souls. My oldest son is 12, my daughter is 11, my middle son will be 10 in August and my youngest son with be 7 in two weeks. I am working full time, yet not making ends meet and it’s devastating. Im in a place at this time that I can not afford to buy birthday presents, pay the necessary fees for my kids to participate in the sports and extra curricular activities they would like, I am behind in mortgage payments, car payments and utility bills. Im embarrassed that I have to ask for help. I’m barely keeping food on the table. I’m traveling multiple times a month to doctors and specialists that are two or more hours away for my middle sons epilepsy care and my own health struggles. In May of 2019, I went in to have a scheduled hysterectomy after complications with my Essure. I woke up 6 days later in ICU. I had bled internally and lost 2400 cc’s of blood before the caught it. I developed DIC which means all your clotting factors disappear. I’ve had countless doctors tell me it’s a miracle that I’m alive. While I am eternally grateful to still be here, the toll the situation has taken on my body after all of my organs going through shock is immense. The follow up appointments are continuous with multiple specialists. My son also has extenuating health conditions including epilepsy and sees specials that are two hours away at best. I want to be able to provide. I want t I’ve able to catch up after the year I could not work. I don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel right now. My kids need clothes, age appropriate activities and books, food, a vehicle to ride in, electric in our house, a roof over their heads, all of which I’m going to lose if I can’t get caught up. My youngest has a birthday in 2 weeks. I want to get him a cake. Please, I’d there is any way you could help, no words could express my gratitude.

Domestic Abuse Survivor Needing Help

Hello everyone,

Almost 3 months ago I and my 3 children left a toxic environment with their father (my ex). He had hurt me here and there over the years but this last time was different. This last time I knew if I didn’t act he would kill me! He told me he would and he hurt me enough to believe him. I currently am looking for work but have been unsuccessful thus far and one major obstacles is not having a vehicle. I recently graduated college and had such high hopes and now I’m so lost and overwhelmed yet I feel so much pride and so much happiness for removing us from that situation. I just feel like I desperately need a boost, a hand, anything to help me get caught up on these bills and if fortunate enough get a vehicle that holds 3 car seats. I have big dreams and I know I will reach them eventually. I’m just sick of the constant pressure of money issues. I’m sick of needing help! If I’m in a good spot I know I can thrive! I want to make the the a better place but I have to be able to take care of me first. My mental health has improved in many ways but has gotten worse in others. Help me quiet my burdens so I can spread my wings! I’m not trying just to survive anymore. I’ve done that for years just staying alive now I want to shine and touch hearts! I am grateful to still be here and so grateful I have 3 happy, healthy beautiful children! They deserve a mom who isn’t so worried all the time and to watch us overcome everything we did and end up on top! Thank you so muchcfor reading! And if you ever find yourself in this type of situation in a relationship or in any situation you don’t want to be in, get out! Nothing is worth your safety, your happiness, your life! Stop giving people chances who don’t deserve them, take care of yourself and keep pushing!

My mother needs help with paying the bills and our tuition.

My mother has never taken an off day, she works 24/7 to pay for me and my sisters tuition on top of the bills(My dad is not in the picture anymore cause he passed). She wants us to study and be the firsts in the family to graduate college and only wants us to have our noses in the books. We have 2 cars but one barely runs, when I’m done with my studies I try and help my neighbors with mowing etc. for cash. It’s not enough to have a substantial meal on the table everyday. I would love for my mother to not have to eat from the dollar store. Her birthday is coming up in July so I have some money stashed away for that but I would love to get her something really nice and take her out for a nice meal. Due to COVID I have had to take out my stash slowly to get us by. Anything helps, thank you for taking the time to read this!

Help for a young widow and her special needs son

My name is Courtney and I am a widowed single mom with a child with special needs. My husband died almost a year ago very suddenly at the age of 40.

He had suffered from diabetes for ten years and seemed to finally be getting his health back on track. Unknown to both of us, his body had already been damaged beyond repair by the disease. In June of last year, he suddenly got sick and was in the hospital for two weeks with his kidneys failing. He was on dialysis the whole time and even had to be put in a medically induced coma for half the time he was there.

Because of Covid, he had to suffer through all of this alone with me anxiously waiting at home for news. Finally, at the end of the two weeks, the doctor said that he was well enough to return home with the understanding that he would be on dialysis for the foreseeable future.

We were both ecstatic because it had been the longest time the two of us had been separated since we were married two and a half years before. He came home and seemed more like himself than he had in months. I was overjoyed to have him near again and that night he said he felt like he was in heaven. Neither of us could possibly know that it would be our last night together. The picture I’ve included is us on that last night.

The next day, he was sluggish and tired. I thought it was just because he was recovering and I let him sleep. But by the afternoon, I was starting to get concerned. Suddenly, laying beside him in bed, I realized that I no longer heard any sounds coming from him. I tried to rouse him but there was no response. He was laying heavily on his side with his face obscured, so I could not see what was happening.

After continued frantic attempts to wake him, I struggled to turn him over so that I could see his face. When I finally did, I was terrified to see that it was blue. He wasn’t breathing and I could feel no heartbeat. I called 911 and attempted CPR in my panicked state with no results. The paramedics came quickly and worked for thirty minutes, but he was already gone and would not come back. My love was gone and I didn’t know what to do.

My son and I moved back to Louisiana from Mississippi to be near my family. Ever since then I have been struggling to build a life after my husband’s tragic death. Since he was the primary provider for me and my son, we have had a very hard time making ends meet. I have also been experiencing health problems that make it hard for me to work. I am currently working part time but it’s just not enough to cover our living expenses, yet I make too much to qualify for government assistance.

I am in a desperate situation right now because I have about $1500 worth of bills that are either coming due or past due and I only have $38 in my bank. I’ve maxed out my credit cards and can’t get a loan, so I’m really in a bind. If anyone can help me, even a little bit, I would be so grateful. Please find it in your heart to give, every little bit helps.

Single Mom needing Help

I’ve never done this before so sorry if it’s not great! I’m a single mom to 2 kids who are 2 and 5 and we’re just really struggling financially. I have been unemployed for a while thanks to covid, but I recently got vaccinated and am hoping to get back to work really soon. I had a savings before all this but it is running out very quickly so that I can keep my kids in school (their daycare tuition is about $300 a week) and between that, and my other bills such as rent, phone, car payment, car insurance, etc. I’m at the end. On top of that, we had a flood in our home last weekend and now need to get the carpet replaced (I attached a pic of the torn up floor) which is probably going to cost me more than I have. I don’t have a whole lot of support from friends/family financially and so I’m hoping someone here can help. Please anything at all would be helpful. Thank you for reading.

Mother and daughter coping together

93F7B78C-D4AC-44E8-8754-2FE854223AC4.pngHello, first of all this is really hard for me to do to ask strangers for help. I have never in my life done this. I feel kinda silly and embarrassed at the same time. But I see people do this sort of thing all the time so I decided to put my pride aside and take a huge gulp and jump in. I don’t want to take up too much time on this but my story starts with my daughter who’s was 14 at the time when she was struck by a car crossing the street and broke her femur bone in half that was horrific the pain my daughter went through before and after surgery. It was awful and it hurt me so deep to see her like that. Many many nights we both stood up with no sleep because the agony she was in. We were both so exhausted. She had to be home schooled a teacher from her school would come once a week. After awhile I notice a huge change in my daughter. She was no longer the social butterfly who was always so active and fun.  She became isolated, withdrawn from the family, , depressed , and lashed out violently. She was some body completely different. She started cutting her wrists and try to take her own life twice by taking pills , once she was taking by ambulance and they had to pump her stomach . Two different times she was placed on 24 hour watch for suicide. I can’t even explain the hurt and pain I was in my baby girl all I wanted was for her to be happy again and I constantly thought it was my fault. I had no one . I am a single parent. It was so very very hard and very overwhelming. I didn’t know how to hope her. I felt so helpless and lost.  Today she is now 16 and I still battle this issues with my daughter all though it’s not as bad as before but they issues are definitely still their and we deal with it daily. She is now taking meds and seeing a therapist when she feels like it. I just know I would never wish this struggle on any parent or child. I can’t even express the hurt the pain the heartache. I just want my daughter to be happy.  Everyday it’s work. But since day 1 I have not giving up on my daughter and I NEVER will.  She is my life. She is my HERO!
Right now I am only asking for help with some groceries and little bit of spending cash to be able to take my daughter to her favorite shops which have to deal with healing elements such as herbs, rocks , crystals and candles. She absolutely loves these types of stores.  Anything will help, anything. I know people all over are suffering or hurting for money and I don’t want to take away from those who truly need it more. Just asking for a little help is all. Thank you so very much for reading my story and for those who donate. Trust me it’s so greatly appreciated 😊♥️
Thank you again .

bless you and stay safe.

Single Mom of 5

Hi, My name is Lina and i work 3 jobs trying to provide for 5 children. Lately it has been very hard trying to pay bills while providing for them. Each child has their own needs and each bill just gets higher. For example the electric, gas and water bill is through the roof and im $687 behind on them. My rent is 1800 a month and i barely make ends meet to get that much. Ive been taking extra shifts but it still doesnt seem to be enough. If anyone could help that would be great! If not, no worries! Everyone goes through their own rough patches!

God hates me

32DF1A64-C18B-480F-8A0C-D2E241991E7B.jpegI’m in desperate need of financial assistance. Every time I think I’m making progress and things are going well…the world absolutely just shits on me. I take 1 step forward and knocked 100 steps back.

I’m trying to get back on my feet. I was in an extremely abusive relationship. I barely made it away with my life and my dogs. I’m 29 years old and still live with my parents because I can’t afford a place on my own.

I work about 130-140 hours every 2 weeks at my full time job. I’m a police officer and don’t make much. I do Instacart, personal training, to try and make up the difference and trying to start my business but with no success. I’m so exhausted.

My ex ran up MY credit card without me knowing. Took out loans in my name. My dog has had to have emergency surgery 4 times due to unexpected injuries. I can’t even pay rent to my parents because I’ve got so much credit card debt. I’m starving and don’t eat much because I can’t buy food.

and with all of that going on…I’ve just been diagnosed with Addison’s disease. It’s an autoimmune disorder. My body does not produce any cortisol and I can’t afford my medication. If I have an attack I will die if I don’t get my medication. Please please I need help. I want to move on with my life and not be reminded everyday of the horrid situation I just left. Please please.

I swear the powers above hate me. I’m drowning and can’t survive. I need about $50,000 to clear the loans in my name from the devil…
