We alert you today to a 25-year-old single woman who needs help. She has no family support and has even been homeless for two years in the past. She now lives in a house where she operates her dog grooming business. The company is doing well, and she has been stable for a few years. However, two months ago, she was forced to spend over $1,000 to keep her car running. That same month, her roommate left without notice, and did not pay her portion of the rent or utilities. She is unprepared for this financial storm that threatens both her housing and her business.

As I discussed her finances, it became clear that dealing with money overwhelms her. She is a hard worker and wants to do the right things, but she needs financial mentoring. She has agreed to meet with a financial mentor to help her create emergency savings and a financial plan for her personal and business finances. We want to help her get past this hurdle without losing her home and business. She needs $1,300 to catch up on rent.
