I have always worked hard to provide a roof over head and food on the table and I have always helped people in need whether iy was by giving money, providing food, offering my belongings or just by helping out physically. We are drug and alchohol free, we do not gamble, and we have never broken the law. We are a decent american family that has always paid our taxes and never asked the government for hand outs until recently when just after my daughter was born I was laid off from my job.
I am recovering from a total knee replacement surgery and my wife is still in the process of recovering from the child birth, so the first thing I have done is apply for unemployment which the system that I have paid into has failed to help me in my time of need. So I went to the Dept of public aid (welfare) to try to obtain at least some kind of food relief and I was denied because I made too much money when I was working last month, ( is that stupid or what) ,so I am not eligible to receive benefits for my family that has no food, and no income.
I have 2 children that need diapers, which i cannot buy, we have received a shut off notice for our lights and cooking gas, and home phone service, and our monthly rent is now overdue.
I have been actively looking for a job since I was laid off , but that will not do any good much longer if all of my utilites get shut off and we have no place to stay, where will this new job contact me at? Well, now you will understand my situation.
You may realize that no matter who you are or what your status is in life the same thing can happen to you and your family at any given time. Its how you help someone in need today that will affect your status with GOD.
So please help a father and devoted husband in need so that I can have time to get my family back on it's feet, My goal to get some kind of financial help in the area of about $5K to help sustain us until I can get working again and get back on my feet, but any little bit would help even if it is just enough to buy food or diapers I would be greatful.
I will be honest and say that if I cannot repay you with money, I gaurantee that I will pay this favor forward to someone else that I may run into that needs help, and hopefully by doing so we can eventually show GOD that there are still good people on this world. Thank you for your time and GOD Bless You and Your Family...!
