Re: Unemployed and looking for work in Washington
Posted: Sun Feb 05, 2023 5:32 am
Hello:
I am currently working on a resource list for the unemployed in Washington in the region where I serve in WA state. Recently, many clients have come to me looking for assistance with financial matters, whether it be back due rent or a car repair or they are unemployed and looking for a job. Many of the usual programs we rely on have been out of funding or closed down, so myself and others have had to get creative.
I notice the website needhelppayingbills has lots of information about church programs for the unemployed and job centers in Washington. I was wondering if those who work on compiling information for the site have any tips or ideas for searching for church benevolence programs online. I have resorted to looking up churches, city by city, and emailing them with a statement I put together that I copy and paste to each message. Beyond benevolence funding, I also ask about any programs that benefit community members, like food banks, clothing banks, or community meals. Please let me know if your organization has any ideas for how to specifically search for benevolence funds programs or church financial assistance.
