Hello.

Well here I am sitting here and feeling so lost. Life took a bad turn for us almost 2 weeks ago now. I just found out I am pregnant and it is a very high risk pregnancy. And there are more life issues. I now have until Thursday night or 7am friday morning to fina a place to live. I have no friends or family here at all. I have no car and no job. I am waiting a decision from SSI that i should have in the next couple weeks. I have a small amount of money but not nearly enough for rent anywhere. This is the 4th time in 3 years my world fell down around me and I am at my wits end. I am looking to see if there is anyone here that may know of any kind of help i could get with getting a place to live. I called 211 and all the shelters and there was no luck there. I am on the housing waiting list for section 8 and there are no other agencies out there that i am aware of. any help would be greatly appriciated, thank you for your time =)

Can someone help me out. In December I mailed my rent check and apparently my landlord didn't receive it.  My husband did not check my checkbook and spend part - not all, of it.  I have $400 but need $495 more.  I get paid next week and will have it then but I need to send it to my landlord now.  Can someone help me out and I will pay you back either by check cash or moneyorder next week? Thanks.

You have a very good outlook on life and Our God. He will always be there for you, it may not be exactly what you want, but I promise you he will be. Sometimes things happen to make you sit and think too about what your life is all about and how you can make postive changes. One time I had a very bad situation and lost my house and my car which was paid for. I had to sell it to pay for medication or I was going to die. I end up moving into a govt. apt which I hated, but had no choice. You may have to do the same if you don't get your extention. I also had family memebers who didn't seem to care if I lived or died, to bad.. cause there is a thing called karma, and most of them are getting theirs now. I hate it for them, but I didn't casue it and now they are on the same street I was on years ago. Hard times can make you inspect your life and your spiritual life as well, be open minded and dedicated and lots of prayers ! If you can be still and listen then you will find the answers for a better life.  People who have no dependants and live alone have the hardest times, cause there is help, much help out there for parents with children, but not any help for single people. All my children are grown and have children of their own so I didn't qualify for any assistance except for low income housing and food stamps. Not even medical coverage. I know for a fact there is help out there for people with children at your local food stamp office..

Hi, I am a resident in the Atlanta, Georgia area and I know what alot of you are going through. I was fired from my job on something I did not do and because this is an Atwill state they don't care if a reason is given or not, You are just out the door. Since that I haven't worked in 7 months, been on a several interviews and it just seems as if a bad omen is on my name. I have been praying and God has been keeping me. They tried to keep me from getting unemployment as will but God showed them up on that. I had it for 26wks, it is now over, I am praying and you all pray with me that I am able to get extension benefits because otherwise I will be out on the street. Nobody deserves to be going through this but God does not lie and he never puts more on you than you can bare. I don't know how I will make rent which is 755.00 if all fails. I just feel like people who have money should come together to help those less fortunate. I promise you that If I ever come into riches I will not hold on to it. I am going to share my wealth to help others to make and show them the way. We should be standing together and not allowing each other to fall. I have friends and family who got money but doesn't give a hoot to whether I live or die. GOD IS ABLE!!! Everyone stay positive and be blessed. We are going to make it. If anyone needs further encouragement and need to talk..I am on youtube as Awitness4him:http://www.youtube.com/AWitness4Him..Ning as:http://prayeriskey.ning.com/twitter as The Experience TV....I am also on myspace:http://www.myspace.com/earnestinebaby

Is there a college campus where you live? You should put a note up saying that you would like to share an apartment with someone who also has a child or try to keep your apartment and have them move in. You both then can share babysitting responsibilities. Go on campus and put in to be a note taker for someone who has a disability. You take notes for those who cannot and get paid. Put a sign up in a local grocery store and see if there might be some people who need someone to go shopping for them. MotherofAlex

I HAVE CALLED AND APLLIED FOR EVERY POSSIBLE AGENCY IN MY COUNTY, NO ONE HAS ANY MONEY TO HELP ANYONE. I HAVE TAKEN CLASSES REQUIRED BY AN AGENCY IN ORDER TO GET ASSISTANCE AND IN THE END STILL CAME UP EMPTY!!!!!! I KNOW IT SUCKS!!!!!!!! I KNOW THAT WHERE THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY AND THE LORD IS WALKING WITH ME EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. I MAY NOT BE ANLE TO MAKE PAYMENTS IN FULL BUT THEY ARE GETTING SOMETHING TILL I CAN CATCH UP. AS FAR AS THE TEMP AGENCIES, I CALLED THE ONES THAT I USED TO WORK FOR YEARS AGO AND NEW ONE'S. I HAVE CALLED DAILY AS REQUIRED AND STILL NOTHING. I HAVE EVEN BEEN ON INTERVIEWS TO PICK UP A SECOND JOB AND STILL DOING MY BEST. PLEASE PRAY FOR MY CHILDREN'S X-MAS THOUGH.

Alyn--I am sorry for your troubles. But with a child, there should be a set of programs to help you. Don't give up--stay brave!

in your county through family services they have a program called title20 it may be called something else in your county. they can assist with child care. or you can call churches in your area that will offer free child care do to low or now income. apply to some temp agencies, or some of them offer positions that pay you day to day to get the money you need if you don't have anyone to help you out.
