The site is very slow and having to refresh makes conversations cumbersome, but there are chatrooms that may be better. See about talking to someone at your local United Way, they are a clearing house for all the nonprofits and will know local resources for you.

This may or may not be useful, but anyway http://www.realwarriors.net/livechat

Good luck man!

Carpentry and painting may be useful to barter with at habitat for humanity or their restore shop in your area http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=…

God created you for a purpose and placed you here on the earth to live out that purpose, Go to him for all your answers and continue to pray.
