Developmentally disabled boy and his single mom need help with a U-Haul to move
$150.00 to rent a U-Haul so single mom and her developmentally delayed son can move out of apartment they can't afford due to son's unpredictable medical and behavioral issues causing the mom to lose work and therefor lose hours at work and income. He struggles at school and often the mom has to pick him up early and cannot work as much as she would like to earn more money. She has help with family members offering their assistance in actually moving the items and belongings but cannot afford the U-Haul rental fee of $150.00. She needs to move by the end of April. The actual move is scheduled April 30th, so a rental would need to be arranged by April 29th. Any offer of any amount is greatly appreciated. She has asked her social worker but since the son is a minor, funding is not authorized to be used for this purpose. No program has a remedy for this problem since she wants to move before she is being evicted due to her inability to afford the rent any longer.$150.00 of $150.00

What caused this need?
She has a strong family support system that will assist her in the physical move, but money cannot be obtained to help pay for the U-Haul so county social services reached out to the CAP Agency's Chore Program to ask if there were any programs or community resources to help this mom in her need. The Housing program was contacted, but this is not a category of assistance, instead it uses funding for rent or damage deposits. The Chore Program is only for seniors aged sixty or older. This request hopes to find a generous person to assist. Thank you.
