Hi I am single mother of 1 4yr old daughter...I will jump right to the issue: I work everyday, go to school in the evening, AND do the best I can to take care of my daughter. I am unable to recieve government assistance (I make 17.60 over the required amount...go figure!) So I am stuck...barely enough money for bills, food or gas....someone please help!!!!

Hi

Click the horse and look for modestneeds, granted wish there and apply for anything you can that is there.

Good luck I think modest needs might be able to help one time and is worth a try 

call 211

if you can get low income assistance with utiliites ask them

I applaud you for working so hard, going to school and being a good parent to your child.  I know how hard it is to be "stuck in the middle" - getting no asisstance and yet not really making ends meet.  I recommend Angel Food Ministries or The Treasure Box for affordable groceries that will really stretch your food budget.  Since you are a single mom you may get reimbursed for childcare costs - call 2-1-1 for resources in your area.  Have you checked into local food pantries?  Seems like you're at the point where you either have to cut back on the money going out or increase the money coming in.  Believe me, I know that is easier said than done!  Check out my pages on raising cash fast, working from home and getting items for free.  Hope they give you some ideas.  Best wishes, Rosie
