Need help with car payment

Laura, Michigan



I am a single parent and have run into problems since I was evicted from my home. I did not have enough budgeted when one of my checks that I depend on was cut in half. I could not make my September car payment and had an arrangement with the loan company who decided that they did not want to work with me after all. They sent me a letter stating that I owed them 411.00 and that if not paid by Oct 18 they would take my car. I have paid the October car payment but still do not have enough money to pay the September payment. The car is the only transportation that I have and I need it in order to get around and get my son's medication that he takes for Autism and ADHD. Any amount of money will be of great help. Thank You and God bless you for your help.

Need help with bills

MS is wiping out our finances, Michigan



My wife and I were doing fine up until 18 months ago when she was diagnosed with MS. Since then we have accumulated big debts, lost income, and we are falling further behind each month. My wife has lost the ability to work, and my income isn't enough to keep up. We have nine children, and we never would have had this many children if we knew what the future held. We were doing fine until this string of bad luck. We have kids in college who are going to have to take a break until our family's finances recover. We are in a spiral. If we don't get some help soon, we'll lose our house, our cars (which are old), and who knows what else. We have nowhere else to go and no one else to turn to... Help!

Family not falling...already fallen behind

Help, Michigan



We are a family of 3 with a 5 month old baby. My husband had a great job and got fired for taking a day off to go to the doctor with me for my son. Being in a state that it is a privilege to work they can fire you for any reason. We lost our car and are on our way to losing our home. We need help getting on our feet whilst he looks for employment. Please help us.
