This request is on behalf of a Hope Florida participant and her 3 children. This Mom is no stranger to hard work. She has always made ends meet, juggling responsibilities with unwavering strength. She is employed full-time, but recent cuts to her hours have strained her ability to provide the stability her family relies on. Her electricity was disconnected yesterday. With minor children at home, electricity is more than just a convenience; it is the foundation of their daily lives. It means warm meals, completed homework assignments, and a sense of normalcy. It means that their home remains a safe haven, not a battleground of financial despair. She was able to make a partial payment by taking some funds from the rent money to pay electric bill. She still owes them $382.30. Please assist this family in and show them an act of compassion that will ensure the children continue to thrive and allow Mom to get back on her feet. Your help will save this family from continued difficulties they face without electricity. Electric bill amount owed: $382.30.
