Family facing eviction

"I haven't had a job since May , and I am not receiving unemployment benefits, as I left my position for mental health reasons. I have been working with the county for assistance and exploring job search resources, but I am struggling to keep up with my rent and vehicle payments." She is currently looking for help paying for her rent. As you can see from her little snippet of why she is struggling, I am hoping she will be able to get some help, small or big so that she is able to stay afloat while she tries to get her life back on track.

Mom struggling to afford tires

Hi everyone we have a mom who is trying to get back on her two feet. She's had several obstacles come along, one of them being unable to afford new tires. She got a quote, and it will about $150 to cover the tires and replacement fee. Getting the tires replaced means she will be able to continue day care in order for her to go to work since she does not have any other babysitters.
