Story
A mother and her four children have been in supportive housing after exiting a domestic violence shelter last year. Mom is extremely motivated to find a job and not rely long term on public assistance, and ensures her kids are well taken care of, attend school, and have enjoyable experiences. Mom had to choose between bills this month and chose to pay registration and property tax fees for her car. As a result, she is unable to pay her phone bill this month. Mom and her kids use their phone bill benefits to call relatives out of state as they have no family nearby. Mom is confident in her ability to stay up to date with bills in future months as her government benefits cover monthly bills, but the fees associated with her car were higher than what she planned for. We truly appreciate your assistance in meeting this request, to ensure this family can stay in touch with their loved ones.
