Testimonial
This person has left the following thank you note:
Thank You From The Bottom Of My Heart! On behalf of myself and my daughter I want to thank anyone and everyone who helped with my application request. From the donors to the persons at Modest Needs I so appreciate the help! A year and a half ago my daughter and I escaped an abusive marriage / household. We left with only minimal belongings and money. We struggled for over a year. In August when we were able we moved closer to family. Since August we have moved and able to a house, my daughter has successfully started and has become involved a new school and I have found a great long term job. As everyone knows that it takes time to get on your feet after a situation like this, we have had little to no extra money for bills. With your help of this grant I will be able to pay a final bill that I will no longer have and gain a little more towards getting back on my feet. Words can�t express my gratitude towards everyone who donated to my grant. It�s kind people like you that make me feel blessed! Again on behalf of my daughter and myself, I thank everyone for all their support. I hope to be able to someday pay it forward to others the way you have helped me. God Bless You All! With Gratitude!

Single Mother Needs Help With Preivous Electric Bill After Moving From Abusive Marriage
My Story:
I am a single female living with my 13 year old daughter. Last year I left my abusive husband and in August our divorce was finalized. We moved back home to South Dakota from Minnesota where my ex-husband moved us two years ago. We moved closer to my family, who is very supportive. I have found a really great job with benefits for myself and my daughter. My daughter has started a new school and is doing very well and is very happy. We feel safe and happy with our new start.
My marriage was abusive and I had to leave abruptly. I didn't take much money with me as my husband controlled mostly everything. I did have a full time job and took as much opportunity as I could to improve my financial situation, but my pay for last year was very low. Once my divorce was final my daughter and I decided to move back to South Dakota to be closer to our family. I have found a good job but with the lack of money last year plus all the moving expenses we incurred have taken a toll on us getting caught back up. I need Modest Needs help with a utility bill from my old apartment. I have not been able to make any payments towards it as of yet. I am afraid it could go to collections.
This would be so helpful as I have gotten a full time job with benefits and once I get all the double bills paid I will be able to pay all my current bills with my income and keep us afloat. I just cannot afford the back bills. I would be greatly and deeply appreciative for any help you may be able to offer my family during this time.
