Story
The client is a 27-year-old single mother of two daughters, ages 6 and 10. She lost her full-time job three months ago, and it has been an uphill struggle ever since. Although she receives unemployment benefits, the amount is not sufficient to cover rent, utilities, and basic needs for her children. The children's father is absent from their lives, and the client’s limited support system is no longer able to provide financial assistance. She is actively and diligently searching for employment in hopes of regaining stability. The past three months have been especially traumatic for the entire family. The client is currently facing the risk of having her electricity disconnected and is seeking assistance to cover her electric bill. Her rent is $1,150 per month, and while she is doing her best to keep up, it often comes at the expense of other essential needs. The client is requesting financial support to help her regain footing and secure employment. She is motivated to rebuild stability for herself and her children but needs short-term assistance to move forward.
