Greetings: My nane is Daryll and i live in Long Beach California. My job that I had for 14 years stopped March of this year. This is the first time in my 50 years of living that I have no job or money and this feeling of hopelessness. My rent is due on the fifth and today is the second so I have a couple days before I have to leave. I need one months help of 700 dollars. I hope to start working next week with labor ready agency. Please help me

The good news is the federal government stimulus program is giving billions in grants to help prevent homelessness.
The federql government Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program will provide grants and financial assistance and other services to help prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless, being evicted, or losing their homes and help those who are experiencing homelessness to be quickly re-housed and stabilized. The best place to go to for help is your local community action agency, and you can apply there.
