I am a a mother living on a very modest income by the middle of the month we are out of food and basic essentials.

I don’t get to wash clothes enough at all because it costs almost $3.00 a load and cannot take them to families house because I have no car and me the kids and our laundry will not fit. Currently we are behind direly on our pge because i broke my wrist in december therefore i was unable to work. the sdi was not near enough to cover even the basic needs. I am back to work but the economy has stripped me of my hours. I need another part time job, help with my electric bill and clothinng for my kids they are grown out of most of the ones we have somekind of break to catch up my bills laundry and get food,can anyone help?

If you’re in the United States:

- Call your local Social Services office
- The American Red Cross: http://www.redcross.org/
- Search for government grants: http://www.grants.gov/

Also, call your gas, electric and phone companies and explain your situation to them. Depending on the state you live in, there might be reduced rates and / or emergency services available to you.

For the U.S. & Canada:

I’m truly sorry to hear of your circumstances; I hope things change for you in a positive way soon.
