Hi, my name is Brandi Ferber. I am forty-two years old and I had a major heart attack, which put me out of work for a week. I am a server and rely on cash tips every day to pay my bills.

I am looking for help to pay these bills this coming week. Anything will help us out and lessen the stress on me. My husband and I also raise our grandchildren. They are 2 and 3. We also have our 12-year-old son in the home.

We are already struggling to put food in the home, as we don't get assistance. My daily tips normally buy dinner for the night, which is going to be hard this week if we can't get help. So please, if you can help our family get through this life-changing challenge, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts and appreciate anything we can get to help us out in this time of need.
