I am a self supporting Mother of 1 child. Trying to move forward in the medical field at school. I received a letter and expect to start back to work at the end of June. I have fallen behind on my gas bill due to being laid off of work. I have an appointment today with Michigan Rehabilitation Services to get help in other areas of employment and additional training.

They referred me to your agency for help on my bill. I am very hopefull that I will be successful and considered in receiving a grant to help my little girl and I. All other information will be forthcoming including the appointment with MRS of Michigan.

Testimonial

This person has left the following thank you note:

I am so pleased and blessed to receive the help from you all. Thank you so much. this is the first day I have been able to check my website for messages due to the fact that my electric was turned off and then when I sold some things from my garage and paid half the bill. Still they have me on limited power. In wyandotte Michigan, we have our own power company, so your allowed so much power to survive the hardship, I am so great full, you just cant even imagine how this totally made my day, actually my little girl was the one checking the website and she yelled upstairs to come and check the message. Thanks so much for the help. We are both in happy tears that we have been chosen, Prayers do get answered!
