Aidpage group discussing "low income family"...

I am disabled and cant get out of the house much so I need help with this Christmas for my grandkids. My ex-son-in-law walked out on his 2 boys causing a lot of problems at the time inwhich caused my daughter to not be able to get a job. She has tried everything and everywhere. The only way she can get a job ius thru day labor which still is not covering all the bills. She has a 3 and 5 year old sons. i want them to have a christmas. We have done all that we could to keep them afloat. To the point we are living day to day and robbin g peter to pay paul. I have no more to give. I even do without. But these little ones should not have to. So can someone please help. They wear size 4 & 5 if cloths are offered. Any cloths day time night time and learning toys they love. We would be greatful for anything. God Bless everyone this season. I have given every year to children without and made complete meals for 2 to 3 families for thanksgiving and christmas every year since my children were born, now even if we dont have I want them to.

Two easy ways to do this:

  2. Or, if you want to start a separate thread - make a new page.

Either way is good - the important thing is your participation. On Aidpage, people support each other by speaking out and by paying attention to each other - as simple as that.

I am going to be a Senior in college majoring in Music performance and minoring in Writing. I recently moved and lost a grant because of it. Now I need $10,000 dollars where last year I didn't owe any money. My sister just got married so my parents have no money to help me out. I need to get this money or I can't finish college! I have never wanted much but finishing college to benefit my future has been one of the most important things to me! Please help

Hey, I'm not really sure what to do here. I'm a single mother of 3 children and we live in a government funded apartment. Their father lives across town, and is a great daddy just has not much money currently due to a total of 4 children and a small weekly payment of unemployment. I've been trying to make a good christmas for my babys and its been very hard. Most of the local charities are booked full and can no longer offer assitence to anyone else. Basically I'm just looking for an angel or blessing. Maybe someone knows of an ageny or somewhere who could help? My children are 6 3 and 15 months. Oldest is a girl, the other two are boys. Thank you for taking the time to read this. May god bless you all.

About Ready to give up

Hi,  I am completely ready to give up... Nomatter what I do or how I try to make things better, something else goes wrong. I hate my job yet I will NOT quit that as I am a single mother of a disabled 7 yr old boy. My poor baby has been through so much...

I am in need of a car so desperatley, as I need to get to work, my sons  Drs, Therapy etc.... I have put every dollar I have in my car and yet it still breaks down the very next day, problem after problem. I just put a new break system in my car front and back, blead them the whole nine, and quess what I have breaks one day and they are gone again... Thats just one problem... I cry all the time, I just cant seem to get ahead.. I try so hard... I have to leave work so much because I am constanly at my sons school.. I am on the verge of being fired, therefore my check barely covers the rent and nothing else, and I can not get assistance or SSI for my son because the hrs I am supposed to work i fall 50.00 over the max allowed. Its a family of 2 therefore we should be able to make it they say.. A family of 2 is harder as you are the only one working, not your child... I just dont get it.. I NEED HELP AND IM READY TO LOSE IT....

Hi i am a low income single mother who is stuck in a bad situation right now. I have a very low paying job and no high school diploma so finding a better job has been very difficult. I hope to find my children a stable home, get my GED, get a higher paying job, and eventually put me and my family in a stable environment I can control without government dependence. I am searching for examples of housing grant proposals that have been accepted. Any help or advice would be really appreciated.

About Thesalesfamily

My name is Tiffany Sales.  This year has been a hard year on my family, in May my husband and I had a little girl (Juliette) that was born with CHD (congenital heart disease) Hrhs Hypoplastic right heart syndrome.  These defects have caused her to have 2 open heart surgeries in her 5 months here on earth. Also causing her to have a compromised immune system thus not allowing her to be able to go to daycare or anywhere with large groups of people.  I have been in search of assistance for Christmas gifts for my 4 children Daniel 7yr, Gabriel 4yr, Jiselle 3yr, and Juliette 5 mn.  Most places offering assistance won't help 2 parent households.  Other barriers are that I can't take Juliette to places with large groups of people some of which could potentially be ill.  We have been relying on my husbands income which is not much and his job closes for a week for thanksgiving, Christmas and new years with no pay. He works long hours generally leaving at 3am and not returning until 5 or 6 pm.  We don't have family that can help us with any of these issues.. Please let me know where I can look or go to help my kids have a Christmas.       
SIncerely,
Tiffany Sales

Comment: I would like to have help...

Note

: This aidpage was started as a comment on "Christmas for Kids"

I would like to have help for my children's Christmas if possible. I have 2 children, a boy, 19 years of age and a girl, 16 years of age. They are mentally disabled.  My husband is disabled also from a heart attack and I have to take him and my children to medical appointments approximately 3 to 4 times a week which prevents me from seeking employment.  So we are a low-income family.    We receive supplimental income from Social Security.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, sachlind

Need Help Bad

Hello, well I'm not really use to asking people for help but I really need help and I heard how total strangers help eachother out on this website and I think that is great. I am 20yrs old and a father of two beautiful boys. My problem is in the financial department, I was attending college and had to take leave because i could not afford it. Now I want to go back so that i can get on my feet for my kids sake and offer them a better life than i ever had. Any amount of monetary aid would be greatly appreciated as would any other aid I am offered thank you very much.

                                                                                                                God Bless

I need help.

i am a mother of a 3 month old baby boy, my husband is out of work, and we have very low income. I am in dire need of a new car. My mother was helping me by letting me borrow her car to get back and forth to work. but the car is broken down for good. I hate asking for help, but i feel i have no choice. if i cant get to work i dont have a job, and if i dont have a job, my family doesnt eat. Please have a heart. someone, anyone, if you have a good car, please sell it to me at a reasonable price, or loan me the money to get one. i dont have the money to get a car, but i could probably go without anything for 2 weeks so i could pay for a cheap car. i can only pay 500 dollars. so please help my husband and my son and i. we really need the help. thank you and God bless.

Full-time college Student who would love to smile at Graduation

I am a 22 year old full-time college student in New York, and will be graduating in May. The problem is I am uninsured and cannot afford dental work that would enable me to speak to others much less smile at graduation. I have been on medicaid in the past a had dental work done, but it has just exacerbated the problem. One dentist did a root canal and then just stuck Temperin in the space, needless to say it did not last long and now the front tooth has broken. I have tried financing options but do not have the credit necessary to secure plans like care credit, captial one. I need extensive dental work, but would be happy with just the front tooth fixed. My mother and sister also struggle with dental problems, and have encountered the same problems I have. My hope by posting this plea is to find a dentist or someone to help my family and me get the dental care we desparately need. We have worked hard, but this is one expense we cannot take on by ourselves. Any assistance that could be provided would be greatly appreciated.

Never had much

 I am writing this in hopes that there is some opportunity for to recieve aid to attend college. See my family has always lived below the poverty level and there is no way my single mother can help me with my dream of higher education.Let alone pay for her medication or bills. My needs are basic  I'm looking for assistance for my goal of becoming a social worker I want to give back and more to the assocation that could have done so much more for me and my mother. I know by getting this funding I will go on to do above and beyond what my career discription expects. Thank you .
