Help a needy family with children and mother with disabilities and work for the man of the house.

I am a mother of 3 children, I have medical problems that are getting worse and the doctor has taken me off work for good. I am married and my husband has lost his job and looking for employment. We are haveing serious problems. We are 2 months behind on rent, our water bill is due, and light bill is due also. We have recently founf out that my daughter has stomach ulcers pretty bad and has to take medicine for it and has changed her diet. My oldest son has ADHD severely, and my youngest son has learning and speech disabilities. With my husband and I out of work we seriously need help financialy and need help for christmas for the kids also. Is ther anyone out there that has a kind heart and help a very needy family out until we can get back on our feet???

I have been married to my wonderful hard working husband for 10 years now.  We have four happy healthy kids ages 8, 7,6 and 4. 

 I have SAD. Social Anxiety Disorder.  I pretty much just stay in my house and enjoy my family.  I was taking care of my friends kids untill she lost her job.  Now living paycheck to paycheck is just a memory.  I started looking for help online tonight after my son came in saying he was hungry and i had nothing to offer him.  Wow worst feeling ever as a mom.  we are on food stamps but the end of month is still a struggle.  Now i have energy bill due and rent due at the beginning of the next month.

 Thankfully we qualify for rental assitants.  We have been on the waiting list for over a year now.  we were so happy when we found our dream house for rent.  $600 a month.  we thought we have to make it work till we get the assitance.  Six of us can no longer live in a two bedroom house and pay $450 a month for it. 

So here we are barely making it.  kids birthdays are here. June our oldest will be 9  In July our youngest will be 5  August we will have two 7 year olds. then our second child turns 8 in september.  I dont know how we are going to get it all done. 

No matter what happens we will always have each other and God..

HELP!!!!! Can anyone please help me find a way to get some help with cash flow? This is not a con or joke. I am in extreme need of cash for legit reasons, 2 kids , need money to rent an apartment, I am a working mom and my car needs 2 new tires, and rear brakes, oil pan ect. I also am being evicted , need to relocate by Nov.. 30, 2006!! I am paying rent until that date. No family to help me, mother is in nursing home nearby, and they take all her social security except for sixty doolars a month, no brothers or sisters either. I don't know what to do....

Single Mother With Children's Birthdays Coming Soon

Hi all,

I'm not sure how this page works, but I found this by searching online because I am extremely desperate at the moment. I am a single mother of two beautiful daughters, age 3 & 8 (soon to be 9 & 4) in the next couple of months. I am a full time student, so right now I have no time to work. I am completely broke being a student. Federal funds only pay me $292 a month. I am about to lose my home, I just got the first decent running car of my life & someone wrecked it while it was parked on the street. Ugh, liability insurance of course so no way to fix my car. My daughters' birthdays are August 8th & September 8th. School is coming up and my oldest will be in 3rd grade (I can't believe she's growing so fast) and my baby will be starting Head Start (I'm going to miss her). I have no money for the birthdays, school supplies, to fix my car, for bills, I can't remember the last time I bought anything for myself. I just want my daughters to have a decent birthday, decent school clothes and supplies, and I want to catch up on my bills, and fix my car. I hate asking for money, it can be so degrading sometimes as a single parent. You want to provide a certain life for your kids and just cannot sometimes. Very hard to swallow as a parent of any kind I'm sure. The amount I'm asking for may seem large, but compared to what needs to be taken care of soon on my end, I won't have any left over for pleasure. Anything will help though, absolutely any amount at this point. I'm not sure how this site works, but I'm so glad I found it, and thank you so much in advance if anyone wants to lend a helping hand to me and my children. I will be forever grateful! Have a blessed day everyone, and good luck to everyone else on this page that is seeking help. I know how hard it is to even ask.

The amount I have come up with to help fix my car, my daughters' birthdays, bills, and school clothes/supplies is (embarrassed to type it) $7,000. I hate to put down that amount because it looks HUGE on here, but trust me, it will all be used for necessities. Thank you again so much.
