I've been turned down by Salvation Army and Urban Ministry bc I don't have a written lease agreement and we arent eligible for more assistance from dss until next month. My son is on a nebulizer twice a day, so of course that wont work without power. Does anyone have any ideas? I feel like the worst mom in the

Desperately Seeking a Saint or financial savior

 Help!  I am in a very dire situation.  I really need someone who will adopt my family and I as a loan, really, to keep the power on, water on, phone on, and get the gas BACK on - that is how we heat our house, and it is getting that time of year where heating will be needed.

 My meds and gas for the van, and insurance for the van (battered but still running!) take up the little income we have, and with the economy in the state it is in the other sources of assistance have all but dried up.  I am confident that we will have a nice Thanksgiving and Christmas, if leaner than before.

 I know there is someone or someones out there will be able to help.  You can email me using ddarkcat@cableone.net, my paypal is darkcat@earthlink.net (that email address no longer exists, but the paypal was set up a long time ago, and until about a year and a half ago I was able to keep that address alive - the same time I had to withdraw from college because I couldn't tolerate the sitting up part.)

 Thank you, and God bless you, everyone.

Hello,

  I am a 42 yo woman who suffers from a chronic pain disorder RSD/CRPS.  Because of this I am not able to work and I am currently in the heck of trying to get SSI.

  My son moved here to help me because I cannot care for my home at this time.  He is a very bright boy, 25, and has tried desperately to get a job.  But here in upstate SC the economy is very bad.

  We are behind on the house but the most pressing problem is the power bill.  It is $178 and schedule for cut off on Monday.  All the agencies we have been referred to are out of money.  We are trying to sell our belongings on ebay and craigslist but that has not gone so well as of now.

  If anyone can help me with this bill it would be most appreciated and I would be glad to repay the money after I finally get SSI.

Thank you,

Raven Ivanov

Fl mommy in need of help

I'm not going to tell you that half of my family is terminally ill or that something else hugely dramatic happened (oh I know that life can REALLY get bad quick my dad was 100% disabled for over 16 years). I have spent the last 7 years working full time. The past 2 I worked full time and went to school full time. I have 3 wonderful kids 6,3,1 and never got to spend time with them. So my boyfriend and I decided that I would quit my job as of July 31 and when school starts back go full time to college and substitute a few days a week. Of course his company started layoffs in June and he was one of the lucky ones. He found a new job but makes MUCH less an hour (like 6 less). He's been looking for a 2nd job to get us through the next month/month and a half until I can sub when school starts. No luck so far and he's applied everywhere around us that said they are hiring or would be hiring. I have a 336 power bill due by August 11th and won't have the money to cover it. I also have a 204 telephone bill due (2 months worth). I try to buy enough groceries out of my 160 child support check to last a few weeks. I was given the number to local companies but b/c I worked for the school board they don't consider it an unexpected expense and won't help me. I've even applied for WIC but that appointment won't be until the 12th of August (nor does it help with utilities). I was denied food stamps b/c I don't get child support for my youngest child I'm still with the father and I know how much he can afford and it's not more than hes paying now. I don't want to screw up his credit cause I know back child support screws with alot of stuff. All of my credit cards are now closed by the companies b/c i haven't been able to make payments. I figure I'll work on those after school starts back, can't do much about that now. Anyway, if anyone can help or has suggestions of where else I can try please let me know!!

We are a family of five who have no electricity.  This loss of power has scattered our family into two different places.  The problems started when my wife lost her full time job.  She has only been able to find part time work to date.  About a year ago, our middle child was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes type 1.  With the added cost of her disease, feeding the three children, gas, and other household bills and only one full time income things have become tight.  We live from paycheck to pay check with a balancing act on getting bills paid.  Three weeks ago (around 1 June) our power was turned off.  In that time we have gotten the bill paid but DP&L will not turn our power back on without a deposit.  We need another 250 dollars, which we do not have.   Our rent is due and that is $ 650.00.  We will get rent paid but the power will have to wait some more unless we can get some help. Our children are staying at the grand parents but living without our children is becoming too much for the wife and me.  We have to be together and to do that we need your help.  We have no phone but we can be reached vie email: thepepgirl269@yahoo.com or mavric240@yahoo.com.  Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Me and my dog are about to be homeless

Hello, my name is Burnard. I'm a single male with no children. I have always wanted children but I was raised and taught not to bring a child in the world unless you can provide for them. So I got Meisha, a Lab/Greyhound mix.

  The past two years have been hard. I have been layed off twice due to companies downsizing. Meisha and I live in a modest 1 br apt. Most of the time I am able to fiind a job in time to pay the rent,light and phone bills. But for some reason I have not been able to find anything. My rent  is $625.00 and is due Aug 1. My light bill is past due and because of that they reqested a deposit on my account,so I now owe them $333.42. The phone bill does not have me to worried even though I need a phone for job searching. My net worth right now is 72 cents in pennies.

My apt complex has a quick eviction process. Someone please help,I dont want to end up homeless with my things thrown out.
