still need help!!

luv2bamom started this conversation

yesterday I posted a blog and explained my situation to everyone. I have collected $45.00 so far on our power bill. So, we now need $320.00 more. We did need $465.00 but the salvation army is helping us with $100.00 and some wonderful people have helped also. Today i'm asking is there anyone out there that could help us in anyway at all. I have been to social service's and many other places only to keep getting turned away. We don't have any income at all so they won't help. I have signed up on work first, but that can take up to 45 days for them to approve you. They do back pay you from the time you signed up. So, that will be good, but we don't have that long to wait. We need our power money by the 23rd. We already got an extension on it. So, if anyone is out there that can help at all, please help!! Even a dollar would help toward our bill. Anything is better than nothing. We have 3 babies or i wouldn't even be on here begging. If it was just me and my husband we could live without power, but our babies can not. apart from the money i'm asking for prayer as well. Pray for God to give me strength to make it another day. May God bless you and be with you always.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post!!

They told us they do help with power bill's but only for people who have income. We have no income. We have signed up on work first , but that takes up to 45 to be approved. They said if they help people that have no income that they will just be back in the same shape the next month. Which I think is crazy, I think they should help people with no income also. Especially when i'm trying so hard to find a job. The economy sucks!! I haven't gave up hope, but this is so depressing!!
