I was recently told - too late - that I might have been eligible for direct financial assistance for all the the years my mom lived with us and I served as her 24/7 full time caregiver. Check out this site / article and browse around for info more specific to your situation:
http://www.caring.com/questions/can-c…

A wonderful site that has helped me immensely is “A Place For Mom”. At it’s surface, it may look like it only handles nursing home placement, but it offers so much more by way of advice and pointing you towards possible financial resources / assistance unique to your own situation. If you contact them via their website, you will be “assigned” to an individual who will phone you and discuss your situation with you. Their service is 100% gov’t funded and is at absolutely no cost to you.
http://www.aplaceformom.com/

For immediate, short term financial relief and possible job opportunities, try browsing around and making contact with these sites:

http://www.211.org/
http://www.redcross.org/
http://www.salvationarmyusa.org/usn/w…
http://www.charitynavigator.org/index…
http://www.charitywatch.org/azlist.html

You should also enter the name of your county into a search engine and search for your local social services agency.

Although I’ve never received assistance from any of my local churches / religious / spiritual organizations, that just might be unique to my immediate neighborhood. Do some walking through the Yellow Pages - online or in the book - and phone around.

Also: contact all of your / your mom’s utility companies and advise them of your home’s low income status; there might be discount programs available to your household.

Finally, I’d like to point out to you that you need to be prepared that you might not get many replies to your post and/or that there is a possibility that you will get negative replies. It’s an unfortunate truth that many “scammers” come into this site begging for money, and that has made many people justifiably wary and cynical. It’s an equally unfortunate truth that despite the existence of our current nationwide depression and massive layoffs, there are still people not yet personally affected by it, so they can’t entirely grasp the concept that there are people in sincere, dire circumstances.

Wishing You Good Luck, -Aries.
