Government Assistance 2010

Thousands of families are struggling to make ends meet. Families are having to decide whether to pay the electric bill or put food on the table, but it does not have to get this bad for anyone. There is government assistance for single mothers and families available to you if you know where to find them.



Did you know that billions of dollars of our tax dollars are put aside each year for grant programs. The programs cover a wide variety of subjects and can be found at grants.gov. Here you can see all the grants available from the government. Unfortunately, unless you speak legal-ese you will be unable to tell whether or not you qualify for any of these grants. Not only that, but this site only lists the grants available directly from the government and not the ones from non-profit groups, local cities, and more.

The government does offer assistance for single mothers and families. The requirements to qualify for this money vary from state to state but they do exist. here are some of the assistance they can get.





If you are a parent, even if you are only pregnant, you can get this free money. To qualify you have to be a US national, citizen, legal alien, or permanent resident and have low or very low income, be it either under-employed (working for very low wages), unemployed or about to become unemployed. If you fall into this category as do many struggling Americans, you can get grant money.

Unfortunately many people who are struggling, lost their job, lost their home, etc, never even know this money exists. Instead many families go hungry or live in their cars all across America.
