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 have tried and now I am in need for me and my children
I never thought I would actually have the courage to ask for help nor did I ever think I would be in this position to ask for help. I have always worked very hard and worked as a salaied manager in the grocery and restaurant industries beginning at the age of 17. I never depended on others for me or my children. Everything changed the year that Covid hit in 2020. I had to stay home with my children as they were on remote schooling. I even took this time to continue my education and obtained another college degree online. During this year the father of my twins(who are now 12) pasted away. We were not together at his time of death, I had discovered he had some demons with drug use that did lead to the end of his life. I felt horrible for my twins. I also lost the house I was buying, two cars, and an unknown amount of cash that was all due to his drug use before I discovered what was happening. As soon as I discovered his drug use we were not together, I did not want to put my children in danger, I do have 2 older children with my exhusband(a daughter in college now and my son just turned 14) I still worked during all of this and eventually got past these hurdles and purchased a house and car. Life was getting back to normal. I worked very hard to provide everything my children needed and also made sure the received counselling after the death of the twins’ father and have always ensured my children were well taken care of and happy. They were all doing well and all are involved in sports and extracurricular activities. While I was not working due to the Covid school issue I sustained severe back injuries as well as many torn ligament in my knees and ankles. I am also blessed with inheriting arthritus in my hands from both sides of my family. I tried tp go back to work and even tried other jobs but am still unable to work. I have been going to doctors and specialists to try and treat my injuries. I have tried to do some remote work from home and then something unexpected happened. The twins paternal grandparents filed for custody of my twins. They did this with paperwork that I have proof to be untrue and all their allegations are false but I could not afford a lawyer for my hearing and did not even meet or hear from my court appointed lawyer until we were entering the first hearing. I gave her all my paperwork that showed their claims are false but unfortunately she never even tried to give them to the judge. I have only been able to have supervised visitation with them twice a month and I have yet to get a full session of the limited visitations because the grandparents would schedule for activities and I have gotten 45 minutes at best during my limited visitations. I am still unable to work but have some savings to pay my bills but there is no way I can afford a lawyer. The first hearing was in September and they scheduled the next for early December. It is only a few weeks away and I have reached out to my lawyer and cannot get a call or even message from her. When I met her as we went into the first hearing she said she had been busy helping her parents move. I understand the importance of family, but I want and deserve to have my twins home again. I hate asking for help but I would appreciate any help I could get, I would even set up a way to pay anything back over time. But today is Thanksgiving (Nov 28th) and my next hearing is December 9th. Today I made the decision to ask for help, I have tried to avoid this. But I miss my girls and I need a lawyer so I can get them back. I am a good mom. I love my children and give them my time. I do not date or go out with friends, I focus on my children. I want to add I have never been in trouble ( never even received detention in school) I worked for 2 companies and had the same boss for 22 years. My injuries have been a huge problem finding a job that I can perform. I am college educated and have always been a good mom. The grandparents have been trying to do this for while I think and I honestly do not know why they did this. Let me add the grandmother(actually a step grandmother) work for the board of education and used her position to fake some of the complaints filed against me. The complaimts are so easily proven false that I could sue them for defamation of charactere. I just want my girls back and I need help. So many other things happened like losing my mother and father in the previous year but this is already a very long post. I feel horrible asking for help, but I love my children and want them back home. If anyone can help I would be extremely grateful. The next hearing is coming so fast, but not having them for Thanksgiving pushed me to finally ask for help. Thank you for reading my story and I apologize it is so long, this is actually the shorter version. I hope you will find it in your heart to help me. I am posting my PayPal link. https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/my/profile
Out of options
I know most of us are in the same boat and our financial struggles are real…no one wants to be on this page asking for help, but here we are – this is my story.
I’m a single mom of 3 wonderful teenage boys. We all work, they all know the value of money and we all help out to keep our household going. Right now we’re going through a “when it rains, it pours” chapter of our lives and it’s taking its toll on all of us. Financially I’m exhausted by the big ticket items that have recently needed addressed. Our house is just at that age when things start to go – a regular part of life I know, the quantity of repairs has just overwhelmingly set me back.
The issues putting me over my financial capabilities and leading me to this page are a broken furnace (needing replaced) and my oldest hit a deer this past weekend writing off our car.
I know our struggles are just that, ours. I’m at rock bottom and reaching out – hoping and praying that some relief will come our way. Any help at all would change our lives and be so greatly appreciated. I would never be able to express my gratitude properly, just know you will forever be in my heart.

“Help Me Thrive, Not Just Survive”
Hi, my name is Ashley Price, and I’d like to share my journey with you. A few months ago, I started a Junk Removal and Dog Waste Removal business while still working a full-time 9-to-5 job. At the time, balancing everything—work, parenting two children at home, and launching a business—was challenging, but I kept pushing forward because I believed in the potential of what I was building.
Unfortunately, just over a week before Thanksgiving, I lost my full-time job. While it was a difficult and unexpected setback, it allowed me to focus on my business full-time. For the first time, I’ve been able to dedicate myself to this venture consistently. I’ve seen glimpses of what’s possible when I put in the time and effort. However, like any new business, there are financial challenges, and right now, I’m struggling to stay afloat.
My immediate need is to cover bills and basic necessities for the next two months while I continue growing this business. My savings are depleted, and the revenue I’ve generated so far hasn’t been enough to meet my family’s needs. If I can bridge this gap, I know I’ll be in a much better position to stabilize my finances, grow my customer base, and turn this business into a sustainable source of income.
I’m asking for $15,000 to help me through this critical period. This funding will allow me to pay rent, utilities, and provide food for my family while also investing in much-needed advertising to increase visibility and attract new clients. I know that with consistent effort, smart strategies, and the right support, this business can thrive and become everything I’ve envisioned.
I’m deeply appreciative of anyone who takes the time to read my story. If you can help financially, it would mean the world to me and my family. If you can’t, sharing my story or offering advice on marketing strategies I may not have thought of would still make a huge difference. It takes a village to build something meaningful, and right now, I’m doing this on my own. I’m determined to make it work because I believe in this business and its potential to not only support my family but also serve my community.
This is just a momentary challenge, not the end of my journey. With your help, I know I can turn things around. Thank you for being part of my story and my success.

Title: Please Help Me Recover from a Devastating Scam (Cashapp: $LKM7281)
Dear Friends,
I am reaching out with a heavy heart and deep vulnerability to share my story. I am a single mother of two, I take care of my parents as well and I am working 50-65 hours a week to provide for my children while managing extreme PTSD from assaults and domestic abuse in my past. Life has not been easy, but I’ve always strived to push forward, no matter how hard it gets.
Recently, I fell victim to a devastating scam that preyed on my hope and determination to create a better future for my family. I came across an online platform called Pentaho+ that promised side income by reviewing apps. The opportunity seemed legitimate—small commissions of 0.5% per review, daily payouts, and a structured system. To begin earning, I needed to build up $300 in earnings through reviews. I worked tirelessly, believing this was my chance to pay off debt, clear my hospital bills, and provide my kids with the stable life they deserve.
However, as I progressed, the platform manipulated me with deceptive tactics. My account balance would go negative, and I was told to deposit funds to continue. I was reassured that these were normal processes and encouraged by a supportive WhatsApp group, a trainer, and customer service agents. They constantly shared fake success stories and “proof” of their earnings, creating a sense of community and trust.
Desperate to reach the payout threshold, I cashed out my 401(k), took out personal loans, and even borrowed against my future. When I finally earned $154,000 and tried to withdraw, I was told I needed to pay a $46,000 merchant fee. They assured me this would be the last hurdle and reduced the payment to $23k because I had hit two daily jackpots which was unusual. I scraped together $10,000 (but gave $8000 before this fee), with my trainer claiming she contributed $14,000 herself. I was constantly communicated with members of the work group, assured that this was normal and they too had to pay the merchant fee if the money inside was more than 10k and they would send me proof that these were the rules of the platform but after the fact. But after paying, they demanded more, citing my credit score dropped 20 points because I took too long to pay and they said I needed to pay for $1,000 per point to restore my withdrawal eligibility (they wanted $20k more). I escalated the customer service lady said she would talk with CEO then showed me some more company policies that I was never informed of and the CEO messaged me heartless like I need to follow the rules and get my score back up to 100 points. The cashout they said I would receive would be $201k once I put my account back in better status.
I’ve lost everything—my savings, retirement funds, and financial stability—all in the hope of providing a better life for my family. I’m now left with even more crushing debt, sleepless nights, and severe anxiety from this experience. I feel like a failure and need to bounce back from this – I have spent all of my life selfless, doing volunteer work with children and the elderly. I suffered severe burnout teaching the last 8 years and dealt with domestic abuse but I always kept my focus on being good to all the children and families while being terribly mistreated at home. I have never asked for help or money, I never qualify for any assistance and I push myself to breaking limits but I still keep going.
I am humbly asking for your help to raise $20-25,000 so I can recover from this nightmare. The funds will be used to cover rent, cell phone, utilities, repay debts (hospital bills), the last of my school balance for my masters and rebuild the foundation I’ve lost. Every dollar will be accounted for, and I promise to pay it forward when I am back on my feet. I can show proof of every thing I will do with the money.
This situation has broken me, but I’m holding on for my children and have to support both parents. Please, if you can, donate or share my story. Your kindness means more than you can imagine.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am a very good person and will not take advantage of whatever I get. I just really want to pay my rent by the first of Dec.

Help me I’m drowning in debt after getting out an abusive relationship.
hello my name is Jodie I am a single parent of 2 children and I am up to my eyeballs in debt. I have recently gotten out of an abusive relationship where I was physically, emotionally and financially abused. He took control of my whole life and my finances. He left me with debt I have no chance of repaying at this very moment and I am receiving letters which are quite frightening. I just don’t know what to do anymore. I’m working and trying to pay off what I can but living is expensive and my current situation is just worsening by the second. I’m honestly desperate and I have no support system either. I just need a break, a fresh start to help me get back on my feet and finally move on for that awful part of my life.

Please help me get clean from Vicodin
I’m so embarrassed but I have no one to help me. I have been addicted to Vicodin for 15yrs. Four years ago my husband of 25 yrs died in my arms from covid. I was so heartbroken I thought I was going to die in my sleep. I took more pills daily to cope with my grief. I thought I had not known greater pain untill I lost my 19yr old to fentanyl overdose. It was accidental. There is no deeper pain. I still have a son who is 15 and needs me. I have tried to get off the pills cold turkey but keep failing. I read about rapid detox and after much research I realize I need $15,000 to make it possible .my son deserves a mom clean from pills. He is awesome and I’m ashamed of myself but will be grateful for any help. I’m also asking family but they are all broke. I sold as much as I could to raise money but only got $600 so far after a year of trying. Thank you for taking the time

Help with bills and food.
I am single mum of a gorgeous 3 year old. We live alone in small London flat and I don’t work, because I take care of him. I do all I can to get an employment or another source of income. I even started my own online business but it requires monthly budget to invest in FB adverts and I don’t have money to cover that cost at the moment. I went to work last year, but my son was sick and I had to leave the job, because I am unsupported by anybody here as I am from Poland and live in UK. I am on low income and his father stopped paying child maintenance. I have tone of bills to pay, even my previous employer asks for repayment of salary overpayment from last year. Dental care is free, but I cannot have toxic amalgam again, so I need to pay for dental filling as well. I started to use my credit cards and I also need to repay them. Please, support me with anything so I can get my business up and running and start to earn independently again.
You will be blessed and so appreciated. Thank you!

Financially inneed of help
I hope this message finds you well. My name is Elena Misseri, and I am a single mother who works a full-time job. In 2020, my life took a turn when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Over the past three years, I have undergone five surgeries, as well as chemotherapy and radiation treatments, which forced me to be out of work. My most recent surgery was in August of 2024, and I am hopeful it will be my last.
Due to being in and out of work, I have fallen behind on various bills, and it seems like I am unable to catch up. I live paycheck to paycheck, and there are times when I need to choose between putting food on the table and paying my utility bill. Currently, I am three months behind on my car payments, and I fear losing it, which would leave my family without transportation. I am also behind on my utility bills as well as other expenses. During my time off work, I was only receiving 20% of my regular pay, and with the cost of living constantly rising, it has been a struggle to make ends meet.
I would sincerely appreciate any assistance or support you may be able to provide for me and my family. It would mean a great deal to us as we try to get back on track financially and have some stability before my battle with breast cancer. Thank you for taking the time to read about my struggles, and I hope that you can offer some help. Your support would be truly invaluable.
Thank you.
Warm regards,
Elena Misseri

I have a son and his name is Tristan I raised my son as a single mom working two sometimes three jobs I managed to never miss a beat with his games, school functions, or holidays I slept a couple of hours a night since the day he was born to ensure all the above For the entirety of his adolescence and to the best of my ability I worked very hard to not let him be too tainted by our poverty and did everything I could to sheild him from the dysfunction of other family members (one major traumatic incident occurred, explanation included) I didn’t let him live in an unrealistic reality either though I needed him to know where he came from and how fortunate he was to have a small but mighty village helping me raise him in a loving stable home especially coming from a family such as ours where most of the kids became statistics Regarding the aforementioned family trauma was 3 days before Tristan’s 13th bday my mother committed suicide in our house while we slept, because she was crashing on my couch after coming back from jail we agreed to let her stay for 2 months only provided she followed all of our house rules and requests she didn’t I told her she had to go the night before and she took her life instead and we’re the ones who found her of course But he knew that my mother and I had a poor relationsh I later discovered that one of her reasons for taking her life, most likely was because she stole my identity and put me $43,000 in debt I couldn’t fight it I tried though because she was not alive to defend herself so I was held liable for it I was financially destroyed by that My credit is destroyed now and it’s taking me several years to pay it off just for more debt by her to surface so I can’t get loans I am in the throes of applying for disability benefits and that is just a long drawn out nightmare of a flawed process for 2 years now I have been unsuccessful at finding any type of assistance program in place for Americans awaiting approval What are we supposed to do and we have to fight for this money that we need so desperately I meet all the criteria I actually exceed so many requirements yet I keep having to appeal their decisions A positive I hold onto is I’m very fortunate that my son is as stable intelligent and emotionally healthy as he is but he has the same mindset as I do He refuses to follow suit with this family and he stands strong with me on breaking the cycle But he has been the most affected by all of this Disregarding all my pain and what I go through physically, my son became collateral damage We need help more than we’ve ever needed help in my entire life I don’t know what to do where to turn or how to get out of this I don’t want to put a $ amount out there because I don’t want to overreach I have no expectations of anyone to think I expect any certain amount that needs to be met I just need to survive and ask someone for help So whatever anyone thinks they can can contribute is more than what I have and would be INCREDIBLY APPRECIATED and will certainly help No amount is too small
For 36 years of my life I worke hard labor jobs ultimately abusing my body and resulting in it turning on me These neurological and musculoskeletal disorders cause me chronic debilitating excruciating pain daily One of my conditions is rare incurable and registers at a 42 out of 49 on the McGill Pain Scale My son’s education is being affected by it in a colossal way because of his inability to go full-time and accept all the scholarships he was offered Instead he had to assume all my responsibilities and become head of the household He’s unable to have the experiences of the campus life because I can’t be left alone for long periods so he has to take classes online only part-time unable to accept opportunities that came with the scholarships because he is unable to fulfill the requirements by going full-time due to my disabilities Our situation has obligated him to work full time just to pay our basic bills just to have utilities and a roof over our head Everything else has piled up He’ll now have student loan debt, something he would not have had with those scholarships This is all because I can’t take care of our house, myself, our four animals, who are just as much a part of this family as Tristan and I are Their extremely affected as well as as I cannot afford their veterinary care until I begin receiving disability benefits that I applied for two years ago and all four of them are two years behind on vaccinations including their rabies Their nails don’t get trimmed they’re not getting their heartworm preventatives anymore and most importantly regarding preventives their flea chews and they suffer scratching One of my part time jobs was working at an animal hospital for many years in addition to my restaurant manager job and my bartending and server job at another restaurant Working for the Animal Hospital allowed me great discount opportunities for all of their supplies hence us growing our fur baby family to the size that it is I never thought I would end up being unable to provide for my family Finally my son’s job requires him to drive his own car throughout the entire shift and we each have our own car – mine is necessary for my friend and my neighbor to get me to my doctor’s appointments every week sometimes several a week and now both cars are completely broken down and now he’s unable to work and I’m missing appointment We don’t have money for the repairs for either one and we’re going to lose everything if I don’t come up with $ to fix these cars and get a few months of bills paid so we have time to catch up and try to pad our finances a little bit I have many more details I could provide but I feel like this is such an incredibly long story as it is so I really want to conclude this I however would be more than happy to answer any questions or tell anybody more details and how this is affecting us and what we need if you reach out to me I would be more than happy to do that
I cannot tell you what it means to me for anyone who even takes the time to read this even if they can’t help because it’s a lot here and it can be emotionally taxing to read stories like this and I know that because I used to be someone who helped families like mine I can’t put into words the magnitude of appreciation my son and I would have to any and all who are able to help us no matter the amount You would just be our angel on Earth I thank you all

Single mother still stuck
Hello
I have never done something like this before, I rather give than receiving.
But currently I seem not to have any immediate resources.
I heard about this platform and I decided to give it a go.
I am currently desperate as I am facing serious financial issues. I need $3000 to pay bills and debts while I get back onto my feet.
This week I got back to my part time work which I love, after 3 montths of sick leave. During this time I got my debts piling up as my compensation payments were just enough for rent and some food. Things have been really thigh as I also have my 8 year old boy to look after.
If you could please find in your heart to support me, I will so much appreciated it.
May Lord almighty will continue multiply with health and blessings.
Thank you so much for your time.
Lots of blessings

I need money to save my sons future
My debts are going into foreclosure. This means that so much money is being taken from my salary that I cannot afford my children’s hobbies. My son loves basketball. I am really sad when I have to tell him that we can no longer afford to support this hobby because I have a debt. Basketball costs $100 a month because it aims for a professional career. I need your help. I need an angel who wants to help. I have $52,000 in debt and even a small amount would help me a lot going forward.”>My debts are going into foreclosure.
