Hi, I am a single mother of a beautiful boy. I am a hippie at heart, and I love to spread joy to others. I think we should do something for someone else every day. Let the person behind you in line with only 2 items go in front of you because you have a toddler and a full buggy of groceries because you know you’re going to be a moment. It’s just doing things for other people make me feel good and I’m not one to ask for help, but I am stuck, and I don’t know how else to get out.
My son and I are living in an old mobile home that needs some major repairs. I feel it would be better to just find another place to live but I don’t have any extra money. I am living paycheck to paycheck with a minimum wage job. I live in an area with few jobs. The jobs that are in this area usually pay minimum wage at $7.25 per hour and start you at 40 hours per week. However, within a few months, you’re lucky to get 20 hours a week. It’s my home and it’s a small town but if I could get enough money to leave it would be a wise choice. I need to move to an area that is thriving with jobs with enough income to live comfortably. I can’t raise my child like this he deserves better. I didn’t get to go to college because I got pregnant in high school and the guy bailed. I just want to give him the best life I can because I’m all he has.
I work every day providing for my child but can’t get enough money saved to invest in a nice place to live. I’m also always having to get my car fixed. I can’t afford to get a better car because the one I have is always breaking down. Now my food stamps have been frozen due to the government shutdown and I am really worried about how I am going to buy food now. I depend on my food stamps to buy all our food. The money I earn goes to my bills and gas and what my son needs for school.
So please help me if you can.
If you do decide to give me a donation, thank you so much and I good will come to you in return. :)
