Single Woman Needs Help Keeping Her Vehicle

My Story:

I help people find work for a living! I love the work that I do and the difference I am able to make in the lives of my clients. My mother lives with me and does not have regular employment, but is sometimes able to find temporary cleaning jobs at schools and homes.

I work a modest public sector job that pays me once per month. I was able to obtain my position after five months of unemployment and have been working for the last eight months at a significantly lower wage than before.I have no savings and constantly struggle to make ends meet. I fell behind on my car payment. This is my only means of transportation, and I do not have the savings to catch up. I need Modest Needs help with my car payment.

This funding will make a huge difference. It has been a very long time since I have been able to have enough to cover all of my expenses rather than falling behind on bills up until the point where a service could be interrupted. I would be able to set aside some money for extra expenses, or purchasing new shoes and pants. I really hope that receiving this funding will give me a boost in motivation so I can continue to go above and beyond to help my clients find work they enjoy.
