Hi, I need help on a late rent payment and want to apply. I currently don't live in the apartments that I owe the late rent payment to due to me moving into my new apartment but the payment still has to be made. When I was living at my old apartment, rent was due at the first of every month but I wasn't able to make my rent payment of 650.00 for March because I was having financial problems and couldn't afford it. I talked to the landlord and got a extension and was giving until the end of March to pay the 650.00 plus the 50.00 late fee so a total of 700.00. That apartment lease is up on March 31st and I no longer live in that apartment anymore because I found a new one that I'm living in now.
The security deposit was 372.16. I owe 300.00 for the actual security deposit than 72.16 was the prorated amount because I moved in 5 days before the month was over with and April rent is free because my rental application got approved and because I signed a 12 month lease and that was the special that was going on at the time. I can not afford the 700.00 rent payment that I still owe to my last apartment for the month of July because of the 372.16 that went towards my new apartment and because I have other expenses that I have to pay. I owe my car payment, car insurance, cell phone bill, my every day living needs and especially my son because I am a single mother. I need help and any help that's provided would be very much appreciated. Thank you so much for your time and I hope to hear back from someone soon.

I'm a single mom of a three year old little boy. I moved to VA from NC about 6 weeks ago and have been trying to get adjusted to the big change. I was recently staying in a basement apartment in a home in Chantilly. I'm trying to figure out how to go about this situation in the best possible way. My landlord ended up crossing some boundaries and making it impossible for us to stay there. Then eventually kicked us out giving us only two weeks to move. I'm not sure what to do. Please give me a call when you can and thank you so much.

HI,
I am in a awful and terrible position. Myself and my two minor children are very soon to be facing an eviction. I lost my job in May due to a car accident. I have been living with a abusive spouse who has finally abandoned us at our home leaving us with no means to survive purposely knowing our financial situation. We are praying and hoping that anyone can help us somehow in any way we have been through the worst.
I do not have the funds to pay for July’s rent. I have paid for everything I could to get us through June. I am fearful of the worst and on top of everything my spouse wants us out. I am trying to apply for anything or service that can help. I have applied for housing everywhere and am still continuing. I am looking for work hurt from my car accident trying everything to keep us from being on the street. I don't want us to loose our things if we do end up having to be put out. Assistance with storage funds would be very helpful if possible. Any assistance, referrals, or directions to someone or any agency is appreciated. Thank you so much.

There are agency on aging centers and resources for the disabled that can make your current home safe. Also try the Human Services group in Los Angeles California, as they may have some suggestions on rental programs for you. They offer housing for the disabled, grants for housing or rent, and much more. The case workers there are very friendly too. Locate a center near you from this site. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... ial_s.html

I am 61 and disabled. I’ve been on SSI for about 6 years. I have Spinal Stenosis, so walking and balance are difficult. I am living with a friend but it is not permanent. I get $930/month. Soon the state of California disability agency will pay my Medicare and I will get $104 more. I need help such as rent voucher or help paying deposits to move into an apartment or house. The home I am in is not safe for me. (not abuse) There is just things in the home that makes it hard for me to move around.--shower, no heat except for a wood stove, roof leaks... Much more but I just need to get out and live my own life.

I am a single mother of 5 and taking care of my father as well. My landlord has decided to sell the home that I live in and wants me an my family to move. I have a part time job working only 24 hrs a week and the company I work for will not let me work any over time. I live in Murray Kentucky and would like to stay here but would prefer the county area for the safety of my children. The rent for any apartment or home in town is from $500 or more and my checks won't cover half of that. I would like to buy a home but don’t have credit and I have past hospital bills that I cant pay off. I have to move an want to stay in the aria for my job because of the distance. If any one could help me that would be great for me my kids and my father.

To Whom It May Concern: I am a 45 year old male in Troy New York. I have always taken great pride in being self-supporting. However, now I am in need. My landlord has been good with working with me. However, now he is in need of some rent money. I have been trying to gain employment. I have been to school and obtained my certification as a Registered nurse. However, I still have not been able to gain employment. It is my hopes that by writing this letter I might be able to get some assistance with my rent and utilities. My landlord told me that if I did not have a sufficient amount of money by Oct 1. I would have to move. I have nowhere to go. Right now I am 6 months behind on my rent and utilities RENT: $450.00 X 6 = $2700.00 UTILITIES: $100 X 6 = $600.00 TOTAL $3300.00 your help in this matter will be greatly appreciated. They have already turned off my cell phone so the only way you can contact me is by e-mail.

We do not sponsor school or programs. We provide information. And for your situation, look into the various agencies in Alabama. Your mom sounds like she works hard to support you with clothes and food, so you are lucky. Maybe call these non-profits and ask about scholarships for your school or rent expenses for a new home or apartment in your area. http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/ala ... grams.html

My mom struggles day in and day out so she could put clothes on our back, pay the rent, feed us, and provide us with shelter. Our mom recently got very sick and was told to leave her job. We was recently just evicted from our house and a week later after we moved to our new house it caught on fire which caused us to relocate again. Now we live with a relative and my mom lives with a family friend. Today we was asked to leave our school and find a new school to go to because we dont live in the district anymore. We both applied to prep schools and received 3 out of the 6 schools we applied to decision letters yesterday. Unfortunately only one school so far accepted us. We would love to attend that school but we was not granted any aid financially because we qualified for to much. We would love you guys to point is in the right direction for how to get help. Is it possible you guys can sponsor us for school or get us in contact with some agency for sponsors/benefactors?

Franklin County and Union Missouri is a small area, so not that many choices, but you have some rental option. Review our data on rent assistance in Franklin County including the Blue Grass Community Action, phone (502) 695-5615, offers homeless prevention/rent help.
