Help Keep This Family Out Of The Homeless Shelter

My name is Heidi and these are my two daughters, Ellenore and Layla.

I have been struggling immensely to survive ever since my divorce 3 years ago. I do not receive child support and have been living off of food stamps and government assistance ever since. We live in a tiny 1 bedroom apartment and I can barely afford to wash our clothes at the laundromat. On top of our existing battle for survival, I lost my income in April due to the current global crisis and am drowning in poverty. I was receiving unemployment benefits but they expired in July. 

I'm not able to return to full time work being that I now have to homeschool both of my children and don't have financial support from my ex-husband or from family. My mother is incredibly ill, my father lives out of state and both are unable to help me. I have limited resources and I don't have family I can live with. Nor can I afford child care.

I am drowning. I need help. A massive leg up. I nearly got evicted last month because I was unable to pay rent. Luckily I was able to get approved for emergency rental assistance. However I'm not eligible for more assistance through any other programs. I have exhausted every avenue and rent is coming up due, again. And my account is currently in the negative.

I need to pay my internet bill so I can continue to look for work. I'm behind on so many bills and falling further into debt. I need new tires before winter hits, they are unsafe to drive on but I cannot afford new ones. I need a safe vehicle for my family. 

My daughters have seen their mother cry too much and it's killing me. My heart continues to shatter and I feel so very alone in this fight.

I am desperate. We are drowning. Please help.
