I don't even desperate need of some housing I'm 46 disabled I need a spinal fusion my spine is severed into two pieces my mother 66 she fell in this apart and broke her hip the landlord just want to remodel the apartment upstairs because of a water leak and he needs us moved out he took our rent money and told us to get out by the end of the month and now we're stuck and we don't know what to do where homeless.
I'm trying to get financial help because I have nowhere to live and haven't gotten my unemployment yet. I have been able to pay for a motel room weekly but today was my last day and my boyfriend only got paid 150 for two weeks at burger king in abingdon. We have a three year old and don't want to be on the streets.
I would like to get some assistance with the rent r that the tenant is behind on...one month@ $450.
Hello my name is Crystal I'm homeless use my only money to pay hotel ,I'm need help with hotelier for week or two it's 250 week here at speedway. I had problems were try seek help salvation army last month.
If you miss 3 appointments faith in action will not help you ever again. They don't care if it's 3 missed appointments in one week or 3 missed appointments in 10 years. They will under no circumstances ever help you again. Even if your a grandmother with her grandbaby out in the cold. Jesus forgives people but faith in action does not.
We're getting evicted because I'm disabled and my son just got a job bout a month ago working 20 hours or more a week we go to court soon. I'm completely disabled and not yet eligible for ssa but get disability, but we're needing help, when we find a place getting rent n deposit will be impossible at once and if you know of a place that's not to hard to get into thats no more than 500 or 550 would help, also preferably round Bristol/Blountville area cause he works like 5 minutes from there.
