Lost my job in Augusta GA and need help with bills

[Mitchell Jennings]

To Whom it May Concern,
I was referred to you by a friend of mine in Augusta GA to inquire about getting help with rent.
I have fallen behind and am about to get evicted. I was served a 5 day pay or quit notice to pay rent and the last day to pay rent is (11/15/2024). I have been in and out of the hospital the last couple of months with medical issues.
I am released to go back to full duty on 11/18/2024. This should be the only time I need assistance with rent, my electric bill (disconnect notice), and my water bill (disconnect notice).
If you could help in anyway with referrals in Augusta GA I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank You,

Hi,
So sorry to hear about your employer shutting down so quickly when Helene gave them ax "excuse" too. And what bad timing with your daughter's issues. The state of GA has various assistance programs, including for Augusta-Richmond County, for people impacted by Helene and find them here. https://allen.house.gov/hurricane-helene-resources/

As far as other assistance programs in the area for paying your bills and even job programs, look here for the Augusta GA resource list. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... ssist.html
