Application Details

Lights About To Be Shut Off | Cost to fully fund this application: 385.00 Modest Needs Points

The reason that I'm requesting help is because I have lost most of my income and I only work three days a week at minimum wage with insurance coming out of that.

During the summer months the electric bill was a lot higher than normal and has been for the past 3 months.

I have been trying to maintain with what income. I have and supply necessities for my children. I'm also going to school for medical billing online to better myself and need to be able to have use of my computer because.

I don't have the extra money to travel to work and school only have enough money for gas for work. I also try to pay as much money that I have left over to pay my phone bill because I need my internet for school.

I also have car insurance that I must pay in order to keep driving I would greatly appreciate any assistance I could get.

Thank you
