Single Moms

We have heard from 4 single moms in the last 2 days that are either being evicted or their utilities cut off.  All of them seem to be trying so hard, working, providing for their children the best they can but just can't quite make it.  One told me that they have had to chose who eats on which days in her family to be sure they could pay the rent but can't cover utilities.  Another's utilities are already off so her and her 4 children are in a local shelter.  Another mom we spoke to today has a part-time job and is interviewing for a second part-time job tomorrow.  None of these positive things they do are taken into consideration when they apply for assistance.  I know they have made decisions that got them where they are but what is troubling is that because they ARE WORKING, they don't qualify for assistance.  Now, if they lose (or QUIT) their jobs, then they will qualify for help...if it were you and your children what would you do???  Would you quit working???  I'm ashamed to say that if my child was hungry I might.  I'm very sad for these moms today because the need is so big, I fear that most of the 4 will either be without utilities or without a home over the next week or two.


We are asking for donations and will put 100% of what we collect towards helping these 4 families.  If you would like to help, please PRAY for these moms and children #1, and if possible, help financially #2. 

If you are able to make a donation, please put "moms" in the memo.  www.ruthsheart.org/donations


Thank you and please take a moment to kiss your family and consider all of your blessings today!!!
