Hi, all. I'm a teacher with multiple disabilities. I lost a job I loved over the summer due to budget cuts, and I have been substituting part-time. Because of the holidays, I'm losing a lot of potential income and am struggling to make it through December. I currently have $5 until December 31.

Everything I've earned is going to rent, and I am still $180 away from rent. My rent is $780, and I have $600 coming on December 31. My power bill is behind $300, and my phone will be turned off if I don't make a $50 payment by December 22.

I currently do not have much food for myself or my 2 cats or transportation.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
