Hi my name is Michelle I am contacting you to see if you can help.

My husband is a union carpenter and he has been laid off since Aug 2008.

We are really struggling to pay our bills, I am the only one working.

We rent a house and we have not been able to make the payments since Aug 2008.

We have two children one is 10 in school full time and the other is 3 that should go to preschool, but I can't afford that either.

Is there anything you can do to help me out?

Thank you for your assistance and cooperation

No rent paid since August. Wow. I suggesst a low income housing program, section 8, and you better work with your landlord immediately so do not get evicted.

I was inquiring to see if your program as any funds to help those in need. We have called all of the agencies you listed but there was no one to help me and my family.I and my wife have been without a job for over 3 months.We must have placed well over 500-600 applications.We are 3 months behind on our mortgage and car payments and all of our electrical,gas and water.I have never been without employment.I tried to file unemployment but they turned me down I also tried to file social security but was also turned down.We have absolutely no income what so ever coming in and have tried to apply at a bunch of different government agencies but to no avail.Most say they are out of funds or can only help those 65 years and up. If you know any body or agencies that would help us we would be very grateful.We are trying not to lose our house or car because we have a 17 year old and 14 year old daughter. if you know anybody who can help us in out time of need.

If you need access to various programs that can provide you with grants, assistance, and other programs that can help you with paying bills, try a local community action agency. They have rent assistance programs, funds for utility and heating bills, and much more.
