Need Help with Rent, Bills

bluemom started this conversation
I just discovered this website today. I'm a single mom of 2 girls. One daughter has special needs and is in her 4th year of a special school. I've been looking for work since last summer. It's almost like there's an invisible black ball against me. I work very part-time and have even looked online for opportunities or work from home. I have sold all of my silver and gold to pay bills. I've also listed dozens of items on craigslist for sale in order to pay bills. I have no family for 1500 miles. In order to pay for my daughter's school, I have spent almost all of my retirement money. I need help with either finding some work, work from home and paying my bills, which are coming up next week - rent, etc. I worked for over 25 years in my field and have always supported myself. Now I'm faced with this situation where I just want to get my daughter through her last 2 months of school this year and I owe money for her tuition. I've thought of every possible way to gain funds to stay afloat. I had emergency eye surgery in November and need to figure out how to pay the multiple bills for that.

Getting older, I am wishing for the energy I had in my younger days. I am Just a person who helps out with information when I can.
Take care

Hello and you are welcome. No I haven't found anyone getting grant money for special education. You can try this and see if it will help but I never used it.

And he has other sites that might help.

 in response to Starshine...   Thanks for all the info, Starshine. I'll be busy looking at all of these sites. Have you ever known of anyone to be successful in getting grant money for special education? I did hundreds of hours of research several years ago and there was just nothing out there to help with my daughter's school. All the best to you.

Hello and welcome to Aidpage

I can understand selling things to pay for bills. I hope things get better.
