Application Details

Without Repair My Family is Sunk | Cost to fully fund this application: 1,300.00 Modest Needs Points

I have been struggling for a long time, and have worked very hard to keep my family and my self off public aid. I was finally getting our affairs in order, so I could start putting money away for the unexpected like a car repair, but the car repair happened before I had any money saved, I have worked to payoff as much as I could...overtime etc.

I am now only needing $1000.00; the bill was originally over $3000.00. I have no other options but to ask Modest Needs for help. I have no family or friends with that kind of money to help me. If I don't have a running car, I will not be able to work, and the person whose car I am using needs the car back in two weeks.

Without my job, my family will lose everything in a short amount of time. Even if I am not funded, that soon, I will still need the help of Modest Needs to have a car to look for a new job, if it comes to that and I hope you can find it in yourselves to help me stop that from happening. Thank you, for your time and consideration.
