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.

I’m in need of some help with replacing my Roof

Hello,

As a Single Mom of a disabled 29 year old, its become necessary to ask for help. I am a Homeowner fortunately, because my Mortgage payments are shockingly lower than I could rent an apartment for, but the expense to maintain a Home is extremely high. I am employed full time but trying to make ends meet leaves little to nothing left over. Our Roof is in serious need of being replaced. I was shocked to find out how expensive it is. It’s already started to leak and I’m afraid that it’s going to get worse, especially with the cold weather coming and then the Spring and all the rain. I’m asking for any assistance. I was also told that it may be possible and less expensive to buy the supplies and find someone to do the labor, so any assistance is extremely appreciated.  Thank you. My Cashapp is $PerryCP,

start a business

Hi

I am a forty-one-year-old single mother of four children. My eldest child is twenty-one years old; second child is fourteen years old, third child is eleven years old and my last child is four years old.

I hereby seek financial assistance so I can be better able to take care of my children needs. At present I do have a nine to five job which I am grateful for, but it pays very little just enough to pay my rent, electricity bill and internet bill. I am unable to take care of my financial needs with my nine to five job. My eldest child attends university and has three years remaining. I pay all her fees from the nine to five job that I have as I am unable to get a loan to do so or to obtain a student loan for her. At present her fees are behind in payments and thus might be unable to do her exams. The reason for Not obtaining a loan or student loan is that i took a loan for her first year in university and had difficulties paying back same and was blocked from obtaining any other loans. My second child is in High school, Third child in primary school and fourth child in Infant school. All my children are doing very well in school. I sometimes fine it difficult to send them to school as I am unable to give them money for lunch and bus fare. I tried doing a side hustle job to help myself by doing chores for elderly persons but that sometimes fail as the elderly sometimes don’t have much to pay. I do satisfy with what they can give as payment for the chores as it helps to buy food.

My mother is mentally challenged, and I am the only child she has, I also take care of her by paying for her to stay in an institution for the mentally challenged. This too is a challenge as sometimes I am behind in payments.

The loan I get from the bank has turned me broke as I am paying a high interest rate which applies after I could not manage to pay the full monthly amount on the loan.

My situation was much better when the father of my children was around, but he left to live in another country to make life better for the children and ourselves but instead of that he never returns or stand up to his responsibilities. I tried on several occasions to reach out to him but with no success. I reach out to his family members but again with no success as they say they are not hearing from him neither is he sending cash to them.

I hereby seek assistance to open a business. this would enable me to be able to finance myself and children better.  I would be also able to pay my loan in a timely manner thus decreasing my loan interest.  The business I would open is a baby clothing and supply store. There is only one baby clothing store in my area which would make it a plus for me. I also have knowledge in business therefore I would manage the business myself.

I am asking kindly for assistance as I had to move from where I was living to a much smaller house to accommodate paying a lower rent. My children sleep in the same room and sometimes they are being ridiculed for the type of clothing which they wear.  I get water from one of my neighbors as my water supplies has been disconnected for the past two months due to lack of payments.  at present they are without some of their books for school and each has one set of uniforms the wear to school. I am thus really seeking help with opening of the business so I can take care of my needs and that of the children.

I am reaching out with desperation and hope that I might get assistance of an amount of $25,000. Your contribution would help greatly in starting up of my business and easy my financial burden and enable my children to obtain their dream and golds in life.

Again, I asked please for any assistance that can be given. I thank anyone who help in taking me out of this situation I am presently in. Again, a million thanks.

with gratitude and hope

When life seems to get better, something takes you ten steps back.

Hello, my name is Shavontay Brooks. I am 37 years old, a single mom of one child (boy) who just graduated high school who I now have to support while he is perusing to be an electrician. I am a registered nurse at my local hospital in California. I graduated from a private RN school in 2019. I earned my bachelor’s degrees in Registered Nursing. Graduating was excising for me. Being a nurse was my passion since the 6th grade. However, as I started  making money, I developed more problems (money problems) debt that is not getting better even when I pay extra on my credit and loan bills. I found that the more money I made, the less I could keep in my pocket. This makes it very hard for me to keep up with my mortgage and other bills. I am currently paying back student loans and credit card bills that accumulated while I was earning my RN degree. I find it is very hard for me to come out of this situation, no matter how hard I work.  I have been working between 2 jobs 6 to 7 days a week not getting adequate rest to the point it’s starting to take a toll on my mental health. I have to work 8 to 12 hour shifts plus overtime just to make ends meet. All I am hoping for is to pay off my credit card, bills and student loans, so I can move on with my life and not have anything hanging over my head. I’m looking forward to paying off these bills so that I can start my nursing entrepreneurship business. I plan to open my own health and wellness business where I can serve the community by providing services that enhance peoples health. My first goal in this business is to start a brick and mortar IV hydration, beauty enhancement and skin care business. I have done a lot of research on how to start, but I do not have the funds due to having to pay my living expenses and debt. I’m asking for help so that I can Move on and pursue my dream career. I’ve learned a lot from bedside nursing however, I want more. I want to be able to serve my community in a different light. Anything helps and will be greatly greatly appreciated. Thank you so much and God bless.

Asking for a hand up

Hello, life has been hard for the last few years as a single mother and I am here asking for help. My daughter needed braces and she deserves them. She works so hard in school, struggling in her precalculus class and stays after school to help improve her grade. She is working hard and has an A average in the rest of her classes and will soon be applying for colleges. I have been living paycheck to paycheck, paying bills and debts, supporting her and my youngest daughter and feel overwhelmed with this new $6000 bill being added so that she can have a nicer smile and can grow to be a more confident, young woman. I want what is best for both of my kids but am struggling. I’m looking for a second job as well but wish there was another way that wouldn’t take up more time and cause me to be away from my daughters longer.  I’ve become more and more depressed with these financial issues.  If there is anything anyone can do to help, you will be in my prayers and I will do my best to help others as well.  Thank you for listening.

A helping Hand

I am a 52 yr old single female. I live in Alabama. I have been a 911 dispatcher, now a supervisor for 30 years.  I was married for 17 years, and during my divorce found out my daughter was molested by my husband (her step father).  We had our retirement all planned out, until he decided he wanted to retire with someone else. So I am working 12 hour shifts and rebuilding my life. But that’s not the issue. My daughter contracted Lyme disease, and has suffered immensely.  She can’t live alone anymore and moved in with me in 2021, and as her illness has progressed she had to stop working. She is 23 and not living a 23 yrs Olds life. She barely can get out of bed some days. Spends her time vomiting, hurting, and saying ” I can’t live like this anymore” so I’m a care giver to her. I have a 59 yr old brother who has Autism. He does fairly well but needs daily care. So I am not only his caregiver, but im his friend, his sister, his only form of life outside these walls. I love him to death. I love them both to death, but im tired. I work 12 hrs shifts, I am constantly in an anxious state wondering which one I will be at the emergency room with next. I have paid my bills and my daughter’s bills until I’m broke. I have had to let the bills go. Her medical costs are so much. I do carry insurance on her, but not many people accept insurance when it comes to Lyme disease. I have been going strong until last month. I fell, and while I wasn’t hurt bad, it kind of made me realize how bad I had let myself go. I don’t care for myself physically, emotionally, medically at all. I put them both first. I’m asking for anything that anyone can give. I have medical bills, I drive a 2005 ford focus, that is blessing me with almost 300k miles. She keeps going, and like me won’t give up, but could use some maintenance.  I just want to be able to pay my bills and take care of these two wonderful people in my life. I don’t like asking anyone for anything, but I have come to the realization that I can’t do it all on my own. My daughter uttered the words that she is tired of living like she is, and there has to be things we haven’t tried…and there are, but they cost more than I can do. I will dedicate my life to these two. I just have to be able to pay for it. I want to move into a house that we all three can live in comfortably, but i need to sell this one first and i never k ew how much it costs to sell your house! Yes my brother gets a small amount of disability. (That’s a long story) and it helps with his care. It’s the mental tole it takes on me. I’m unable to do my best for him sometimes because I’m so tired. He is so loving and understanding. He gives great hugs, but im exhausted. One of my saving graces are my two dogs that i have had since 2013. They are my unconditional love that i know will always be there, but they need vet care that i cant afford. I just need help. Please lend a helping hand. Anything will help. Thank you!

Single mom needing help with groceries, bills, and gas

Dear Reader,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to share a glimpse into my life as a single mother who, until recently, had been juggling three jobs to make ends meet. My journey as a single parent has been filled with countless challenges and obstacles, but my unwavering determination to provide a better life for my children has always driven me forward.

Balancing multiple jobs while being the sole provider for my family has been both physically and emotionally taxing. Every morning, I wake up before the sun rises, trying to make the most of every minute in my day. Despite the exhaustion that often accompanies this relentless schedule, I persevere, knowing that my children depend on me.

However, life has a way of throwing unexpected curveballs, and recently, I found myself in a situation where I had to take time off from work to care for one of my children. My daughter faced a health crisis that required my full attention and care. It was a difficult decision to make, as it meant temporarily sacrificing my income and job security, but my child’s well-being had to take precedence.

This unexpected turn of events has reminded me of the importance of family and the sacrifices that we, as parents, are willing to make for our children. While my financial situation has become even more precarious, my daughter’s health is gradually improving, and I am grateful for the time I could devote to her during this challenging period.

Despite the hardships and sacrifices, I remain committed to providing a stable and loving home for my children. I am actively seeking ways to return to work as soon as possible, but I am also reaching out to you for assistance during this temporary setback. Your understanding and support can make a world of difference in helping us get through this challenging time.

In conclusion, I want to express my deepest gratitude for taking the time to read my letter and consider my situation. Being a single mother with three jobs is a constant struggle, but my children are my greatest motivation. I am determined to overcome this setback and continue working toward a brighter future for my family. Your compassion and assistance would mean the world to us during this difficult period.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Empowering a Single Mother’s Journey: Building a Bright Future for My Children

Hi there! First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to read my story. i appreciate you showing up here.

My name is Mel. I am a diligent small business owner on a mission to create a better life for my two incredible boys as a single mother. It’s not easy for me to ask for help, but I want you to know that every day, I put my heart and soul into my work to provide for my family. I live in gratitude, keeping my hopes high, my motivations strong, and my humility as my guiding light.

The Journey So Far: My life story is one of resilience and determination. While I grew up in a reasonably safe family, I faced the harsh reality of homelessness during high school. College was an unattainable dream as I needed to work from a young age to survive. At 21, I fell in love with a man who had dreams, but those dreams remained unfulfilled. Despite my loyalty and support, the relationship eventually became a danger to me and my children’s safety. With just $50 to my name, I made the courageous choice to leave and protect our lives.

The Battle for Our Future: Over the past two years, I’ve navigated the complexities of the family court system. This unfortunate exposure to an unfair system has made it incredibly challenging to grow my business successfully and secure financial stability for my boys and me.

A New Chapter: In 2023, after years of healing and self-improvement, I found myself in a new relationship that promised safety and stability for my family. However, circumstances took an unexpected turn, leaving me pregnant and heartbroken with no support from the father, who now resides in another state.

Turning Pain into Triumph: I am determined to transform this story into one of triumph. With self-awareness and street smarts, I am committed to overcoming our financial instabilities. As my business, a high-labor cleaning company, will require me to step away before and after the baby arrives, I’m seeking your support to provide peace of mind during this critical time.

Our Vision: I have ambitious goals to expand my business, including hiring a team, pursuing education courses, hosting workshops, and launching new products. My vision extends beyond my own success; I want to empower other single mothers by offering them opportunities to build their businesses through mine.

Supporting My Birth Plan: In addition to the financial challenges, I’m a natural, home birther. To ensure the safety and well-being of myself and my baby, I need to pay my midwives $1,000 by April. Furthermore, I aim to take March and April off from my physically demanding business. This time is crucial for me to go inward, focus on self-care, and prepare for the arrival of my newborn.

The Importance of Your Support: Your support will not only aid in the successful birth of my child but will also allow me to be fully present for my two boys as our family dynamics change greatly. It’s about creating a nurturing environment during the last month of pregnancy and the crucial fourth trimester for the well-being of all my children.

Closing Thoughts: Thank you for believing in me and supporting my growing family. Your generosity is cherished beyond words, and I look forward to the day when I can pay it forward to others in need.

Request for financial assistance

Hello, my name is Naudia. I would like to request a moment of your attention. I am a single mom in between jobs in the Oil and Gas industry. I worked for my last employer for 10.5 years. I decided in November 2022 to start my own online drop shipping company. I couldn’t devote my time fully to work, my online business, and my child at the same time. I still believe it was a great choice, but it has taken longer than expected to start producing income. In the meantime, I am seeking temporary help to pay utilities and my mortgage for the next few months. I have exhausted all my credit cards and savings on living expenses and fighting for custody of my son, which was not an expected expense but has been rather costly. I checked with federal and state benefits first, while I did qualify for food stamps I didn’t qualify for any additional help. I am not sure how this is possible, but I am desperate to save my home and keep the utilities up to date. Any unnecessary expenses have been canceled. I bought my house in 2021 and it has been such a blessing. I am hoping to keep things stable and consistent, so my son doesn’t have to suffer or notice a change in his circumstances. Any help will be greatly and humbly appreciated. I am currently looking for work from home positions while focusing on the online business. I am hoping to get my head above water and be self-sufficient once again. I also have a desire to pay it forward and help those in a similar situation as soon as I have the finances available.

My Son and I Need Your Help

I once was a very successful individual, who was able to not only support my household but also my extended family. However life happened, and since 2022 I have not been able to get my bearings. Since 2016, when I was first diagnosed with Breast Cancer, I decided to become a Business Owner. I decided to become a Business Owner, because the job I was working at during that time didn’t in my opinion, care if I was sick they just wanted me to work. The situation was truly ironic because the company was a hospital. The same hospital that found the mass in my right breast. 2016-2017 was a bit of a blur, I went through chemo and surgeries for an entire year and I was able to soon move on with my life. CANCER FREE!!! In 2019, my husband at the time decided to move to Texas for better job opportunities. I wasn’t happy about the move, because I had finally found a job that I loved and that also paid me a sufficient salary. Although I was against the idea I still moved so that I could be a supportive wife. In 2020 I started one of my few business ideas that I had no idea would help me to become a success, KR Royal Services. A little about this business, I helped individuals with financial services. I made more money than I ever fathomed I could make, but after a couple of years, it died down. My business had crashed I was another statistic. After I realized there was no way for me to revive my business I decided to work outside of the home. It proved to be a great challenge for my husband and me to work and not have help with childcare, but somehow with the Grace of God, we did it. Well when I thought things couldn’t get worse, it did. My family and I were on our way to visit family in Louisiana, and we got into a horrible car crash that left my car totaled. Getting home was a rollercoaster. However, that isn’t even the worst part, my assignment for work had ended and my husband lost his job as soon as we went back home. We had no car, no jobs and we ended up losing our apartment. So we relocated and had to move with family. As if that wasn’t bad enough because we couldn’t see a Physical Therapist in a different state where the accident happened we no longer had a Lawyer. So out of the whole ordeal after the creditor and insurance company paid off the car in its entirety we only received $500 back. Something is better than nothing but that was definitely not enough to help my family to get back on our feet. I also deal with mental issues (bipolar, depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, which I make sure I take meds for, which are paid for through Medicaid), and because of the way things have ended, I had multiple suicide attempts. I am unable to work any schedule because I don’t have money for childcare, my husband works a day/night alternating shift and all the help we were told we would receive isn’t there anymore. Everyone is just doing their own thing. Which is fine because the responsibility to watch our child is ours alone, but a little help would help us out a great deal. The strain of it all caused my husband and I to separate. We are now looking to get a divorce. I have since been able to get Food Stamps. But I have no assistance with housing the Section 8 applications have closed, but I still signed up to be waitlisted. I was told that once the application does open up my son and I could still be waiting for housing for years. So we are living in a very toxic environment which isn’t good for my toddler son or myself. I am so used to doing things on my own but I am finally realizing that I truly need support. My child’s welfare depends on it and my health depends on it as well. I feel that this is my final option I don’t know what else I’d be able to do after this. However, I am determined to find a way out of this for the sake of my precious baby boy, as well as myself because he deserves a happy and healthy mommy. So I am begging you if you can find it in your heart to help my son and me please do. Every little bit helps!

Desperate single mother

Hello, I am a single mother of five, desperately seeking help. Last October we had an electrical fire in our home and had to move right away due to the damage. Our landlord was not keeping up the maintenance on the property and we had a bunch of issues with the apartment. Me and my children stayed with family in the interim but it was toxic and stressful. I found us a new place but the rent was pretty steep. In my determination to keep my place for the past year, I have been borrowing from my 401k, taking out loans, and using my credits to pay my bills. This has in turn gotten me deeper into debt. I have a full-time job working from home but it has not been enough to cover my rent and utilities and now my light and gas are about to get shut off. I am already on payment plans but I cannot keep up. I am in the midst of looking for a second job, but the only overnight work I can find is too far for me to travel to by public transportation. This would require me to get my car fixed which has been in need of work since the fall of last year. I am asking for a donation of $5,000 so that I can pay off the loans I owe and get my vehicle fixed so that I can start looking for a second job. This would be greatly appreciated at a time I know is so hard for many. I just need some help in getting stable and back on my feet. Since I do work from home it is imperative that I not only keep a roof over my family’s head but I must also pay the electric and internet bills or I will also lose the one job that has been keeping me somewhat afloat. I once again appreciate any help that is given and thank you in advance.

Struggling

I am a single mom of 2 teenage boys. I do have a full time job and for the last 2 months my hours have been cut so I haven’t been able to work the hours i need. My rent keeps going up and I can barely afford groceries. All my bills are catching up to me and to top it off I just wrecked my car on my way to work so I am having transportation problems. I am tryimg to be humble and have a game face but deep down I am scared and I am tired no matter how hard I try I feel like I cant get ahead. I need some kind of relief. My number one goal is to keep a roof over our heads and have transportation.  Any kind of donation would greatly be appreciated and if I am ever able to pay it foward I definetly will.

Thank you,

Single Mom In Need of A New Car

Being a single mom is a challenging task. Not only do I have to balance the responsibilities of raising my children alone, but I also need to ensure their safety and well-being. One essential aspect of our lives that I struggle with is transportation. Unfortunately, my current car is unreliable and presents more issues that put my family at risk. Therefore, I am writing this document to request assistance in obtaining a new car, which is crucial for our daily lives. My current vehicle has become a constant source of stress and worry. It has started showing signs of mechanical failure, stranding us multiple times. These unexpected breakdowns disrupt our schedules and pose a significant safety risk, especially when traveling with my children. A new car would provide the peace of mind we need, ensuring our safety and minimizing the chances of being stranded in dangerous situations. As a single mom, I need reliable transportation to fulfill various responsibilities. I need to juggle work commitments, school runs, medical appointments, and errands while ensuring my children have a stable and secure environment. However, my current car’s constant issues make it increasingly difficult to fulfill these obligations reliably. A new car would provide the dependability and consistency required for a well-functioning household. While purchasing a new car may seem daunting, I am open to exploring affordable options. I understand the financial challenges that come with being a single parent but investing in a more reliable vehicle is vital for the safety and well-being of my children. I am willing to seek financing options, explore low-interest loans, or consider practical models within my means. Having a reliable car would address our immediate concerns and have long-term benefits for our family. A dependable vehicle would enable me to commute to work efficiently, ensuring I can meet my children’s needs. Additionally, it would allow us to participate in extracurricular activities and community events and build a support network, improving their overall well-being and social development. I ask for support from individuals, local organizations, and community members who understand single parents’ challenges. Whether through financial contributions, connections to affordable car dealerships, or providing guidance on seeking assistance programs, any help or resources would be greatly appreciated. I am committed to prioritizing the safety and well-being of my children. Owning a reliable car is essential in ensuring a secure and stable environment for my family. The assistance provided by individuals, organizations, or the community would alleviate our current transportation challenges and contribute to our long-term success. With your support, I can continue creating a brighter future for my children, free from the constant worries of an unreliable car. Any help is appreciated.
