You had said in an earlier post that all you had was popcorn to eat. You need more than that to get strong enough to do this. Going down there is far more helpful than a simple phone call. They usually offer food right away and if you ask usually give a 99 cent store gift card for $9.99 to buy produce. They also offer counseling on getting work and have leads on jobs. I never just called I went down there. In person is always better. A call isn't enough. They helped us and another family we knew tremendously, but we went down there. Actually it was the Church that gave us a stipen to pay our rent for 3 months. The church has funds just for that purpose. When you go down you have to fill out a form and show your drivers license and list your needs. Then they counseled us on what they could do to help and immediately gave us the giant box of food and I had to ask for the gift card. They really need to see you to help! Please go down there in person as they need to see you and make sure you are not just some scammer on the phone trying just to get money. Also, at your local Catholic Church they have Mass usually at 8am and it ends at 8:30 am. You might want to stand right outside the church with a sign that you need help. Also, go to the Church office and ask to talk with a Deacon or Preist. Tell them you are in crisis and need their help. This has to be done in person and not just over the phone just asking for money. This is all a very humbling experience, but the lessons we learn in the process are tremendous. Please don't stop trying just because the phone call did not yield the results you need. I'm praying for you and have faith that someone there will help you! Maybe even someone at the Church will reach out to you..I am praying for that! Sincerely In Christs Love, Deborah |
