Hey, my name is Steve and I'm a single parent. I have NO FAMILY and NO SUPPORT systems.

Edit. 01/27 Hey everyone it's been awhile since I have had to ask for help. However, I'm in a position again. I need your support if able. I am working full time at my art, looking for a job currently. I'm searching for any and all work opportunities. I've applied for assistance but am waiting on an answer. I can't seem to get ahead of it all. It's not for lack of trying. They say it takes a village right. Can you help me villagers? I need to get ahead of my gas bill to keep the heat on. I just paid part of it with what extra I had but I'm still short a couple hundred. I have to pay rent in a few days. I have enough for that, but after paying it I will be tapped out.

I've had my son full time since his mother passed away and I have done everything within my power to do all that I can for him. Provide for him, feed him, keep a roof over his head. In 2019 Katie passed away and we were devastated. Shortly after that, what little family I had was cutoff. Been on our since. Us vs the

I have stumbled alone for quite a time and I'm finally at a good place mentally. I created my own art business after my last attempt. I have been maintaining that business since. I work odd jobs, I go to BioLife. (Unable to donate now) I help where I can and I work hard at whatever job I do. im currently looking for work as I continue on with art. I am doing ALL that I can to provide, but it is not ENOUGH. I've gone to the food banks, I've applied and am waiting on response to assistance. I have no support. Im in need of a community and the support from them. It's just my boy and I.

I have no real capital or savings. I maintain the bills, but im not ever in a position to grow or save much. I'm here asking for help. Please.

I have no idea what to do moving forward. I need help and resources. I'll keep going and trying, but we need assistance.. We NEED it

I know it's difficult for everyone and I do not like asking for a handout, I work hard for what I have. I'm sure that you do as well! However, I have hit a wall and I do not know what to do, but ask for help from you. Please, if you have anything to spare, know that whatever that is will be going towards our home and a really good kid. It will help support my life.. and any help is help. Thank you. Truly.

I have used the go fund me a couple times now to save our lives. I've been able to call on help from you and others and it meant more than you know. You have helped me keep a roof over my son's head and food in our bellies.

I really am doing all that I can to provide and make things work. However, I am failing. I can't do this alone..
