Hi, I'm from Minnesota. Me and my two daughters are threatened with eviction, and are struggling to prevent this. Is there anything anyone can do to help?
We have setup a "gofundme" webpage, if you or anyone you know can do anything at all to help please do share this on FB.
Additionally any and all advice is welcome.
Thank you so much.

My special needs son and I have been forced into a homeless situation and need any help possible with the cost of moving into a new rental as we are currently sleeping in our car and have no family in the state to ask for possible help. We live on a limited income off SSI benefits and saving to move into a new place will take months and is not an option with a 2 year old special needs baby. Please help us as anything will help.

$700 for rent for my two sons and I. My fiancé was taken to jail this morning and I didn’t work, only him. I took care of the boys. Desperately need one time assistance on my rent for August so I can focus my time looking for a job instead of finding a shelter & storage. Please help me. I know there has to be someone out there that has a heart for someone in my shoes.

We need help paying our rent this month. My husband and I are usually able to pay our rent, but got behind this month due to me having surgery last month. We are now faced with eviction charges as well as court fees along with our rent amount. The landlord said we must pay $1445 by July 25th or be forced to move. Please help with anything. We will not have that much money by then. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

We live in Boise, Idaho and have been here for 4 years. We have three children. I, work in a restaurant as a server making $3.35 hr plus tips, and my wife, is an L.P.N. as has excelled in home health services for ten years. Recently in August of 2014, she was let go from her job due to the agency unable to pay employees for lack of funding for this year. My wife had previously beaten cancer, through surgery, and just been diagnosed with cancer of her kidneys, and is requiring immediate emergency procedures, to rid the cancer that has reemerged. We have fallen behind in rent and some utilities bills.

We did receive an eviction notice, and with only my income can barely afford gas to my job. We are extremely stressed, and fear being tossed out of our home with our children. We do have a plan in place, with a job for my wife waiting for her to employ as soon as her medical procedure is done, and is aware of her ailment. We owe $700 for rent immediately, and are asking for some help with extra assistance with gas and some bills to get back on our feet. This is an emergency only for next couple of weeks. Please respond as soon as possible, to let us know of any assistance or information you could help us with. Thank you for your time, and hope to hear from you from you soon. God bless.

I recently split up with my husband and I am in the process of going through the divorce. He has kicked me out of my home I lived in with him for 20 years. He is not giving me money to live off of and I can't pay my rent. I have a job working at Wal-Mart. But recently had to get my own car because he took mine due to it being in his name. My paycheck pays for my car and car insurance. I currently do receive food stamp benefits to help me along. I need to find a place to live as I cannot live with my parents for much longer. I am 48 years old and need to be on my own.

I just need help paying my rent this month. I'm currently enrolled in school and I wait tables at The Top of Hill. I just started my job and I am going to be receiving living expenses through financial aid, but am only allowed to receive those after 450 hours of class. I just need a few hundred dollars for the rest of my rent to help me get by this month.

Yes, in order to get rent help you do need to be able to cover future payments. Based on your note it doesn't sound like you fall into that category. But there are different places you can try in Cincinnati for referrals to housing or rental assistance. Can you look into maybe a roommate or another supplemental income source? Maybe your dad can also look into disability payments, which can help with the expense. Anyhow, find other rent programs in Hamilton County.

We do have a listing of resources and programs for single parents, dads, moms, and others. In fact, many nation charities actually focus on that need, such as YWCA, Co Adobe and others. Also, how/why have you used up all 60 months of TANF and still do not have a job? You really can't find a job in 5 years that can pay a portion of housing. If not, then not much more anyone can do for you. But here is our rental programs for moms. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... gle_m.html

Seems like you have several needs, such as for rent and employment. In this case, you may want to try a community action agency in New York. While each one is different, the programs often cover self-sufficiency and crisis needs. So that may be grants for a rental payment, One Stop job placement centers, and other solutions.There are several in the state, and find more information on community action programs in New York.

Rental assistance. Help finding low income housing. Me and my son lost our housing voucher when we switched counties and could not find a place to live in the time frame given. Now we have no home. Also I need to be put in touch with an organization like Angel tree for my son and 2 daughters. Thank you.

I was recently in a car accident on top of my landlord making a clerical error with rent causing us to think that we had already paid rent one month, and they told us later that they had made a mistake and that we had to pay them that money or we would get evicted. We are now behind on rent among other things, and having problems with the insurance company. The landlord is now trying to evict us. My relationship with her father is ruining my relationship with my daughter because I get so upset arguing I become dysfunctional, unable to take care of daily needs.

I have had to change my business structure due to being a single father of two sons. This is mandatory so that my sons are not left alone night after night. I am in a down-turn financially at the moment until I can get my clientele base rebuilt. As of this email. I have a total of $600.00 to my name and roughly 1900.00 worth of bills for March facing me; 970.00 (rounded up) of which is my RENT which is due on April 1st. I am actively seeking new clients, and failing that, I am seeking employment with another company. I am new to being "broke", and I don’t like it very much. So this is not an easy thing for me. But for the moment, thank you for your assistance!

My fiancee and I just moved out here with our almost one year old son and are currently living with my fiancees brother, his girlfriend, and their two kids. I am also currently 4 months pregnant. My spouse just recently found a part time job but unfortunately his brother just lost his full time job and my spouses part time job is not enough to cover rent, which is due March 5. If it is not paid by tomorrow they will begin the eviction process. I would just like to know if there is anything we can do to pay rent or maybe get my spouse and I into low income apartments. Please let me know ASAP! Please and thank you. God bless.

My dad is very sick. He's 55 years old and been in the hospital a several times for surgery he had surgery on his foot and he's not able to work because of his health issues and the surgery that he's been going through. Its only me and my dad in Cincinnati. I do my best to take care of him but it's very hard for 23 years old female going through divorce and having financial problems on top of that my dad being sick and not being able to work. I try I try I do everything and anything to keep him happy because he has no one else besides me. I'm going through a divorce because my husband banded me and currently I'm a part time worker and not making enough money to keep up with my bills and the apartment rent so I received a eviction latter from the land lord saying you have 5 days to pay the rent apartment asap. So I'm really in a bad situation with all the problems that I'm facing at the young age. I wanna be able to go to school, work, help my dad and do lot's of good things but unfortunately behind with all my bills and my dad's health issues.
