Mortgage Help From Hurricane Irma

My Story:

I am a single mother of 1 child, who just started 2nd grade on August 21 of this year. He loves his teacher very much. I work full time as a Secretary for a middle school.

I'm sure that most people have seen on the news about the weeks of hurricane disasters that have occurred, well, I am a survivor of Hurricane Irma. Though I am truly grateful to have survived, this has come at a time when I am already struggling to make ends meet. I've been temporarily unemployed due to the hurricane which prohibited me from paying my bills, as well as having sustained damage to my home in which I can't afford and my insurance doesn't cover. In the meantime, I need Modest Needs to help me with my mortgage payment.

This funding will bring my household current. I have been without income for 2 weeks and ill be able to catch up my other bills with this mortgage help. Schools in my area will resume on September 18 and I need to start preparing to go back to work and get my son adjusted to starting back to school.
