Laid Off: Need Utility Bill Help | Cost to fully fund this application: 131.00 Modest Needs Points

The figure above includes the cost of fulfillment.

We both lost employment this year. We are a loving spiritual family with a dog and cats. We live passionately and help others whenever fate allows. Unfortunately, California's unemployment rate is over 10% and even though we are incredibly marketable, the odds out there are about 1 to 50-75 based on both Internet research and inquiries to employers.

We are trying to make ends meet and now that my unemployment benefits have stopped, we see little hope that our living expenses (much less the past due creditors we had budgeted monthly payments for payoff to) can be satisfied. I am sure we are in a group of many all over the U.S. We can only hope and pray these words reach out to your heart and reach out a lending hand. Our prayers are high; thank you so much in advance.
