REQUEST FULFILLED I’m embarrassed but desperate to get groceries.

I’m reaching out here because I’m in a tough spot and need some help. Times have been hard for me lately and I’m living paycheck to paycheck. I have a 12-year-old son, and I’m trying to make sure we have food and essentials for the week because we have run out of everything. I don’t have even $1 to my name after paying rent and power. My rent was suddenly increased from $900 a month to $1,800 and it has been taking everything I have to be able to pay it on time each month. I know everyone is struggling these days and I’m not special so believe I’m mortified at having to ask for help like this ):

I’m actively looking for ways to improve my situation, but at this moment, I just need a little help to get through the week. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it so much!

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for any kindness you can offer.
