Get help with paying bills or free stuff.

I just was granted a section 8 voucher. After being homeless for 7 years. I have an outstanding BGE electric bill. I am on disability so my budget is low unfortunately my bill became very high 945.71.
I have to have a zero balance to move in my new apartment. Section 8 rules make this happen. I'm scared that this is the only thing keeping me from a stable home. I pray that I can figure this out somehow. I don't make it a habit asking for any kind of help, but I can't live on the streets any longer. I'm 43. Thank you for your time and listing once again with all my heart.

So you are $945 behind? Good luck. No charity in Baltimore or anywhere else would help with that amount. Maybe ask the section 8 public housing authority (PHA) for suggestions on where to turn to for electric bill help. Maybe they have ideas. But we are glad you are on the path to getting out of homelessness.
