Mag-

I completely understand as my husband and I are also considered middle class before taxes, even though after taxes we only bring in 1600 dollars per month to support a family of four. The best thing I can suggest is to make use of the food pantries. Free/Reduced lunch programs through your children's schools are going to be less income strict so apply for that to see if you can get them on it and they will then get breakfast and lunch.

Webster Emergency Food Pantries/Soup Kitchens

Your local community action programs should be able to help aid you once a year with bills, along with the Salvation Army and Catholic Charities. You may want to find out which local churches give out Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets, as these can provide an extra generous amount of foods.

I'll keep my eye out on websites.

Hello and welcome to Aidpage. Try to apply here for help one time with rent

http://www.modestneeds.org/

You can apply on line to see if you qualify.

It is the sign of the times as many are having a hard time with job cuts, bills etc. A lot of people on this site are experiencing the same situation so do check my blog here

I made post regarding work from home and snagajob this morning

Good luck

I need help with my rent this month! My hours were cut in half, I have two kids im a single mom, I just having a very hard time right now..

 in response to HelpMePlease711...   

Colorado is a tough place... I've lived there before. Jobs are scarce and pay is LOW! Once you do get a job, the rent/expenses ratio is WAY off... you are always either barely scraping by or not quite making it...

 

Have you tried a staffing agency. I'm not talking OfficeTeam, but maybe Aerotek or somewhere like that. There are a lot of places that need people for jobs that don't neccesarily require you to have finished high school. Aerotek is off Garden of the Gods somewhere... There once was a place that ALWAYS was hiring... It was a telephone survey company, again, off Garden of the Gods. They hired ex cons from Com-cor, so i'm pretty sure they'd work with no GED.

Believe me when i say I understand. I was at one point, before I moved to California, living in a hotel room with 2 guys (and i'm a girl) just found out I was pregnant, had a temp job I was about out of contract with and $30 in my bank account. My boyfriend and I split up, and I had no other friends or family within 1000 miles. I was out, jumping from hotel to hotel on the westside of town trying to find a place to live, and food to eat. I was striking deals with any hotel manager I came across just so I could have a place to sleep. I was 19, almost 20... Try and keep your head up, things will get better. Just hit that pavement like you never have before!

 

Try some of your government rent help resources. If you go to the Gov HUD website they have a bunch of useful tips and leads. Also, I found some good articles and tips here if anyones interested. Good luck!

Help-

The posts seem in general trying to offer your sincere help. I can understand that you are having frustrations, and that can lead one to lash out at others, but try to see this from their point of view. They come across a post written four years ago, and here is ayoung lady lashing out at them.

Can you be specific as to what help you need as of today, July 27, 2010? Can you give specifics as to why your SSI was denied or what issues you are having? Do you need legal counsel about SSI? Do you need referrals to medical doctors? What exactly is it you want "help" with? This information may help those of us who are trying to do some research for you, as it narrows down the search.

 As far as GED's are concerned they are free. The only thing you may have to pay for is the test, but you may find that if you provide your school district information we can help you find those within the district that may offer free classes, and scholarships to pay for the test.

In the end, you have to decide you want your circumstances to change. It may be hard on some days, but you alone are the only one who can move the mountain. We can only provide you with guidance, advise, and point you to the tools-we cannot use the tools.

Blessings,Anora

Join the military.

They provide free housing,food,medical care,plus a nice paycheck.They have great education benefits. However, you will need to get your GED.

I wish you the best.

Sorry for the loss of your mother.

people who need help are not necessarily asking 4 money im  in the same position i need help and ill im looking 4 is if some1 else has a different number that i havent tried yet

I think that said it all.

 in response to Schmidty...   What I don't understand is why people come here thinking Aidpage is their own personal ATM and all they have to do is request the amount needed and we will diliver. There is so much info on this page for almost anything one might need assistance with but most of the people that come here do not want to do the leg work of reading what is available to them. I have been just reading posts for the last week or so and unless we give people the name and phone number or internet address of where to get help or spell it out for them they aren't interested. It is so refreshing to read posts of those that aidpage has helped, they needed a leg up and due to the info they found here they were able to move on with their lives. We can only provide the info and if people don't want to do the reading and digging for resources that will help them then they need to find a site that will do that. Good comment Schmidty, thanks. sheshe030

 in response to sheshe030...   

You tell her. I don't understand why anyone would think that all you need to do is ask and that they shall recieve. How long have we been alive and know that it just doesn't work that way very often, besides the name of this web page is Aidpage.....People helping people. Not people handing out money.

I do understand though that when people get in certain situations that they panic, get upset(to say the least), and angry. That's ususallly when you make bad choices or do things that you normally wouldn't do.

 

 in response to HelpMePlease711...   

I hate that you feel that way but believe me it will pass, believe it or not.If you are wanting to go to school there are ways, if you want a job there is always the Job Corp or the service.You'll even get to travel.

The are some job centers listed on my blog at http://schmidty.aidpage.com/  and some other helpful information.

I doubt anyone here gets helped.

But I am desperate. Which I shouldn't be, I'm only 19 years old.  I should be living with my parents and going to school.But it isn't like that. I've been living on my own since my mother passed away when I was 15. I've moved so many times, I can't keep count. I was not able to finish school, since I move every year. 

Now, I just laid off about a month ago, and my rent is due in a week. I've been looking for a job everyday, yet I can't find anything. No one wants to hire a kid who never finished school... My rent is 575.00 a Month (excluding Ult). I have no food, I eat when I can. Sometimes I steal food from the store.  I live in Colorado... I hope someone really helps my prayers. I've done this for almost 5 years, my life is ruined if this messes up my credit. I have no family, as you can see. That is why I've been living on my own for so long.

I feel as if I am better of dead then alive at this point. I'm not happy, at all.  


How do I deal with this? I have no education, no money, no one to turn to. My life...gone. Before it even began.. I can't do this.. not any longer.

I hope someone, please, please.  God...this is sad. Asking for help, as if I am some low life. No one even cares... 

7 days until rent is due. 7 days to make a choice on what I will do with my life.

i need help with my rent being payed.i just got laid off my job in the end of april, beginning of  may.im a single 26 year old mother with 1 child taking care of her by myself no help with her either.its hard without any income coming in

 in response to ...   Reply to The Wrong Bitch's:---My MY MY, you sound a little upset my dear. First of all let's clean up your spelling mistakes, OK ? da=the  talkn=talking  calln=calling  wantin=wanting   fuckn=f--king . Now if I could I would clean up your mind and teach you some manners but unfortunetly I think your beyond learning either. Aidpage does not give out money. Aidpage does give resources for you to go to and possibly get money from them. I don't know why you think you can just come here and spew vile language after finding out we're not an ATM but now you know and unless you can clean up your mouth and adjust your attitude I don't think your going to get squat from anyone here. Please keep a dictionary close by when responding. Sincerely sheshe030

I think you have to serve him an eviction notice before taking him to court?

 in response to ash9...   You need to call some Churches, Community action, Salvation Army. In your area.

 in response to Rachel25...   Well,..If his name is on the lease ? Then you can take him to Small Claims Court for his part of the rent for the months he has not paid.

Are you asking people to send you money?? because that would be illegal you know!..........

You need to go to your local Social Services agency. They will help you with rent, electric and your bills. Especially if you have children you can get alot of help..When you have children you need to focus on their needs and put your pride aside. You need to do what you have to do to survive!!!

march on down to your local social services office and get some help!! they will help you today with food and anything you need!!

i need help with rent today and i dont know what to do

Does anyone know of any places in the atlanta GA area where i could go to for help with a security deposit and first months rent? we need to get moved into a place by july 15th

 If you know of any placesplease feel free to send me an email at mixedatlcpl@yahoo.com we would be grateful for all info. Thanks

Hi Jamie

Sorry you have cancer and Ohio has work first program but I would still try calling 211 to see if there is temporary cash assistance for your children. Then check my blog as I have cancer information that may help and I know of one for sure that will in form of help free with housecleaning - cleaningforareason.org...but other info is there.

good luck

Hi My name is Jamie Griffin. I am a 25 yr old single mother of 2. My son is 6 and my daughter is 4. I need help paying my rent. It's 575.00. The reason my phone and stuff is still on is because i just had surgery to remove thyroid cancer and its how i keep in touch with doctors and they keep in touch with me. I'm not on here asking or wanting someone to give me a hand out. I just need to vent. I guess i'm trying to figure out what I'm supposed to be doing. I feel kinda lost. What was the point in getting a degree. Finishing school. When now none of that really matters. I'm scared??? maybe going crazy? What has happened to our country? I wish I could help everyone including myself. I go back over the years and try to find the big mistakes what path i took that made everything go so wrong. But it's not me. It's not you. It's our government and their greed. God bless all of you. Just know that in our times of trouble God will always be there to carry us. You just got to let him pick you up.

I am a single mother of six children. Four of my own and two Nephews that I have custody of.I got laid off and I've spent all of my savings. My rent is behind and I'm in the process of being evicted.So scared!

I'm in need of some help. First off i was working at a job. Wound up being pregnant. The preagnancy was too much for me. Don't understand why Since I already have an 8 yr old. So  In the time being my boyfriend was working with me as well since i got him the job their. Anyways, My pregnancy was tough i couldn't get up from bed everything i smelled made me sick. I use to work at a call center. So you know how stressful the job can be. So on day i was on a call with a customer. I could barely talk to the customer because i was having morning sickness. I was told i had to stay on the call before i could go to the restroom. All of the sudden my  work phone started spinning when i placed the customer on hold to speak with a sup I felt like I was going to pass out. I couldn't handle it any more. Since we didn't have a car. We would take the bus to work. It was so hard because we had recently moved into our house. Which we where so excited about. We had a stable job. We where doing good.  We where very excited about the pregnancy. Since the pregnancy continued to be worse. I just couldn't get out of bed. The bus rides home where hard because it would take an hour to get home. I couldn't just tell the bus driver to stop because i felt sick . So finally I called in and informed i was no longer coming in. At the time i was told to get a doctors note for leave. But didn't have the money since we would get paid every two weeks. I couldn't wait that long. Everything made me sick. So anyways I wound up resigning. Then so did my boyfriend we tried to go back but where informed since we didn't give a two weeks notice we weren't eligible for re hire.  When i went  back to work around the time and reason for going back was do to the loss of our baby.. So now I need to pay my rent which is 650.00 at least until i get a job and can repay the money back. Is their anyone that can help me....So looking for another job and my rent is already do.

 

iam a mother to a 6year old daughter and iam 8months pergrant, right now iam still working. when i rented my apartment there where two parents but iam doing this myself now .i live in low income hud housing as of next month i will be unable to work for at lease two months also iam already 1 month behind in rent. do not want to loose my apartment. is there a program that can assist me in paying my rent a month. i can pay some not all every month. iam getting a little scared for me and my children. ITS SO HARD

 

 

 I have a family of 4 children and my wife, I rent my house and it was shut down by the city inspector of code enforcement and I had to go to the civil courts to open a sroll account to keep the money of my rent secure so that we do not end up homeless. Now they gave us 10 days still paying the rent and because we are in a very low budget all the money goes to our rent its not even enough for bill we have a permanet shut down on PPl electric we are so worry that this can cause a removal of our kids, We don't have money to move because it was given to the court and it wasnt given back to us.  During my internet search we dont even know what else to do, We pray God and have faith on him to touch a heart to help us just get another place to live.  Anyone that can help us please call Orlando at 484-809-6528.  This is not a joke , please don't call with malisious intentions of any kind, please respect we serve our lord jesuschrist and we praise him, we are a christian family.

God Bless !

 in response to 17yearsapart...   

While the application process can take forever @ 10 years for a section 8 VOUCHER - the voucher goes with you no matter where you live- getting into public/govt subsidized housing is another matter altogether.

HUD has all the information on section 8 vouchers and govt subsidized housing. While the economy the way it is , yes there are waiting lists, but it is NOT 10 years - that is strictly for vouchers. Subsidized housing depends on the availability of apartments in the area in which you live.  And yes, all you need to do is contact the rental office of the complex and apply...

Well "Fredric". Section 8 does not just take applications. You have to look everyday and wait for the apps to show up in the newspaper. Even then it could take 10-15 years to get accepted.  Yes I did say 10-15 years depending on where you live.  Larger cities have more people and smaller towns have less funding.  No one thinks they are too good there just is not enough help to go around.

catholic charities 212-371-1000. or your local public assistants office.

the word " embarrassing" doesn't start with an " i ". Based on the fact it originally came from a SPANISH word embarazar, anyone who claims to know both languages ( let's not point the fingers )  should've known such a simple thing don't ya think ? Or how did u say in your blog " YOU PEOPLE" haven't had a chance to learn it during 24 years of bilingual practices? 

P.S. We all have different life values. So I'm gonna show my 14y.o. the part of Fredrick message where it says " so do what u have to do and suck it " and I'm gonna tell him " You see son, don't be like that !" /\<<

 

It's a joke! It's a library computer , so I read a bit.  don't be mad at the person who forgot to delete history
