Hello to anyone seeing this:
My name is Jillian and I’m currently a single mom to a 13-year-old boy and a guardian mom of a 14-year-old girl. I have been a single mom since my son was 2 years old. And about 2 years ago I received a call from CPS stating a friend of mines child was being removed from her mother and was given my name as a possible safe place for a 12-year-old girl. That evening my life change completely! I took in my friend’s child as my own in hopes of one day being able to reunite her with her own mother again.
Unfortunately, after almost 2 years she still remains in my custody and financially has taken its toll on me.
I’m not one to ask for help because I was raised to work hard for what you have but with the addition to my family has caused me to finally break down and ask for help. I asked my family for help but they were unable to provide any assistance. After gaining guardianship of a minor child, I had to purchase a new home in order to meet the standard of the guardianship as my previous home was only 2 bedroom and CPS did not allow a boy and girl to share a room.
So, I searched for a house in my area and found a small home that is 3 bedrooms to fit my family. However, purchasing a home drained my savings account with down payment, closing cost, inspections and additional fees. And with the added child and the cost of everything over the last 2 years has put me in a financial situation I have never been in before.
I’m truly struggling to provide for me and my two kids. I’m in debt and feel like I’m sinking and sinking fast.
I’m kindly asking for financial assistance to help me and my family from sinking.
Needing help with:
*Credit Card Debt – $22,124
*Mortgage Debt – $128,691
*Personal Loan – $3,304
*Car Lease (will need to buy out come sept 2024) – $19,072
Total debt: $173,191
It breaks my heart having to ask for assistance because I wish I could be able to provide others with assistance. I would be truly thankful for anyone who is able to help with any amount of money to try to see the light at the end of the tunnel and not feel like I’m sinking. And who knows maybe one day I will be able to pay it forward to someone else. Never know how the world works sometimes.
