Still needing help. I am not asking for money, just something for the kids , I can barely make my bills with borrowing. I never asked for help, but have became didabled and bedridden. I feel sorry for all these kids out there needing Christmas. All I can do is pray for us all. Bless you all!

Hello there and thank you for writing. I am a 29 year old female who has been struggling with many things in my life. My health, as I have a chronic medical condition, is not the greatest. I have a job as a server in a restaurant and no matter how much I work and how hard I work I just can't seem to make ends meet. I have a vehicle that is leaking gas. It has been leaking for quite some time now and its not only not safe it is wasting gas. Gas is expensive as it is without having a leaky gas tank. I have repaired my car so many times just to keep it running so that I can get to and from work but it is on its last leg. I have been online trying to find any sort of government agency or company that can help me get into a different and very much safer car. I have hit brick wall after brick wall. I have emailed local companies without a response. I don't know what else to do. I also have been trying to sift through these links on this page in hopes to find something that might be able to help me. I live in the Detroit Metropolitan area Michigan. I see a lot of links related to health and dental which I will use definitely but being in this car is killing me. Without a car, I have no way to get to work and without work I'll be back in a shelter which I really don't want to go back to. I lived in a shelter for about a month back in 06 and I never want to go back to that.
 
What I am asking is if anyone out there knows of a company that can either help me or lead me in the right direction. I will be more than happy to donate my car in return there are many parts on it that can be used.
 
Thank You all for listening =) Take Care and God Bless.
Melanie

   Hello my name is Shaela,  I am in need very bad right now.  I have to live off of SSD(disability) as of last year, and I only get 700$ a month!  This is enuf for me to pay my basic bill's, but lt is not enuf for me to save,or for emergency's, clothes and other personal need's.  My car broke down last month, and i had to pay 730$ to get it fixed and now it has alot of other problems.  So now I am past due on all my bill's & owe my stepmother 200$!!...I am a good person, up untill last year i have been working my butt off since i was 14 to make ends meet! 

   PLEASE if anyone can help me get my car fixed, get a better car, help with my past due bill's, or even give me some information on a org. that could help? would be the greatest thing in the world..!  You have NO Idea how much it would help & mean to me!  I do not qualify for alot of help MI offers because I do not have children yet.  This makes me very angry, I can't get help because I was responsable enuf not to bring a child into this world that I could not take care of yet?  To me that is not right!

   So please if you can help in any way? even 20$ anything? I have proof of bill's & anything you would want proof of? PLEASE? I do not want to be homeless agin or be without a car!  leave me a comment or something?  Thanks for taking the time to read this.......Shaela
