Story
The family in need that we are alerting you of today is an encouragement to us. Although the mother is struggling they are all trying and have been brave enough to fight their way out of the government dependance way of life.
This family was on government assistance while the mother was searching for employment. She was unable to find employment in New Jersey, but was offered a position in Metro Atlanta. She was then faced with a choice to risk losing her government assistance in pursuit of employment in another state or remain on government assistance in her home state.
She left her home state, lost her assistance, and began her new employment 5 months ago. Upon her arrival into her new town she found herself unable to secure housing and was forced into the pay by the week type of motels. This does not fit her budget and has put her in a weekly struggle that she can not escape on her own…or at least has not in the past 3 months.
We have connected her with our Area Expert in housing and she is working with them to secure more stable housing for herself and her 4 children. However, she is between paychecks and has no way to pay her weekly rent today. If she does not pay today, they are out tomorrow morning and living in her car.
We would like to help her along by paying her rent for next week, continuing to help her with stable housing options through our Area Expert, and help her with the deposit needed to secure an apartment.
