I am a bit uncomfortable but very grateful to have found this wonderful site! I would like to review other posts, with some time to think, I will return soon!
I am a single parent looking for help. I have strong faith in the Lord and have been trying to wear a smile on my face knowing that GOD will pull me through...however I do have to admit that as the days inch closer to Thanksgiving I cannot help but to feel overwhelmed at the fact that there will not be a different dinner other than Pasta or something that I can afford nor will there be presents for my two wonderful children at Xmas. I am reaching out to you in efforts to ask for the help that I so badly need. I will tell you a little more about myself as I don't want you to think that I am trying to take advantage of your generosity. As I mentioned I am the mother of a 3 year old boy and 11 year old girl. They are genuinely good kids who have not given me any problems. About a year and a half ago my husband walked out on our family, as you could imagine the pain and suffering of that alone has created a great sadness in our household. I recently found out that he had gotten another woman pregnant and they just gave birth about to a baby girl..this has been especially hard for my daughter. Nevertheless, I have filed for the divorce in attempt to get any type of financial support for the children and all of the debt that my husband left behind. Our home is going into foreclosure and for the first time in my life I can truly say that there is never really enough to eat. I am truly humbled by this experience and never in my life could imagine being hungry. I am intelligent, employed and love being with children. I have asked for help from some agencies but I have not qualified because I am employed. My life is slowly falling apart and I trust that with help I can get back on my feet. I stand in faith and know that one day God will see us through. If you can help I would be greatly appreciative! Also if you have information on resources! Thank You!
I have been seeking a affordable and safe apt. on the Southshore area (brockton) for me and my daughter... I am currently homeless; sheltered but not living with my daughter - I was unemployed and became ill due to stress that this financial hardship has brought upon me. I have always worked and rasied my children and this has harden me because I cannot seem to get enough money to provide the basics let alone what is needed for school and extra activities.
I have the opportunity after searching for a affordable apt. to move in June 1st. The landlord has taken into consideration of my financial hardship and has knocked off the security deposit and and the credit check. But my problem is I do not have ALL the 1,800.00 that is needed to move in. I only have $400. and ANYONE who would be so generous to help me would be GREATLY appreciated in more ways then you can imagine.

Hi I have a family of six but only five of my children are at home. I have a great need this year for christmas. Each year seem's to get a little hard but I'm thankful that we are all still living and together. My husband is the only one working. I have had knee surgury for the past three years. I am doing much better but still the problem hasn't been resolved. I have called different agency in my state to get help with gifts for my children. I have been unsuccessful at soliciting the help of other agency. Times are very hard for my family. I was wondering is there any where I can go get help for my children. My children are all girls. I have a four year old girl with down syndrom and a 17, 15, 14 and a 10 year old they are all girls. I would like them to be able to walk up on christmas morning to at least something to open. Please can you help my family.

Hi, My name is Heather and my fiance and father of my two young daughters passed away recently. My daughters are Destiny who's three and Serenity who is two.My youngest was born with a congenital heart defect and i'm so lucky to still have her. I writing because as you can imagine things have been tough both financially and emotionally and with the holidays coming up and one less income i'm afraid my children are going to suffer further than what they have already been through. Sp if anyone one can help, toy wise or any way at all it would so greatly be appreciated and GOD BLESS!!!
Hello, I am a 49 year old working womam. I recently have been dealing with several financial issues due some unfortunate situtaions, these issues are not related to neglect of my responsibilities. I have found that as working adults, unless you have children under the age of 18 or are responsible for a dependent adult, or 65 and over or disabled your self that there are no programs or agencies to help. It is as though you get penalized because we work eveyday. any suggestions
You know I'm an awesome seamstress it's one thing I am great at...I only need to figure out financing and a committed group to make it work. The great thing is it could be done
