I'm a Single Mother of Two Who Desperately Needs Your Help!

My Story:

I am a single mother of two wonderful boys. My oldest is currently serving in the United States Army and is living outside of the home. I am so proud of the man he has become and am extremely proud that he is serving our country. My other son is an active 9-year-old and has special needs. He is smart, funny, energetic, and highly active. He enjoys swimming, fishing, basketball, and loves people.

Generally, I earn enough to pay for our basic expenses every month, but I do live paycheck to paycheck, so I had no savings set aside when our family was affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. The governor of Kansas issued an order closing all public schools and childcare as well. This decision forced me to leave my employment to care for my special needs son at home. This unexpected crisis reduced my hours and pay significantly. It was two months before my employer decided to allow me to work from home, and by that time, I was delinquent on my monthly obligations. We are now asking for help to pay for our rent so that we can keep our home.

This assistance will bring our household to a more current status with our bills, and it will restore our sense of stability. This help would be the difference maker that my family needs right now. It has been really difficult to adjust to these chaotic times, but with you help it will make it a lot easier. Thank you for your support and for your charity during these difficult times.
