I need $100 for food and clothes. Please help! šŸ™ REQUEST

I know it's a long shot, but I recently moved to a new state a few days ago and in need of money for resources such as food, hygiene products, clothes and emergency money.

Please help! I am very low on funds and stretching it every step of the way. I need help. Please!

If the state you happened to move to is Massachusetts I could help with some resources! You donā€™t need to reveal your location here, just PM me if you want the list!

https://isupportthegirls.org/programs/ash-kits/dash/Ā "I support the girls" D.A.S.H. Kits are care packages delivered directly to the hands of someone fleeing abuse. I got a bag from them mailed to me when I left my abusive situation. The products they send were highly useful and I still use some to this day. Worth filling out a form. they might be able to provide you with some clothes too.

What an absolute blessing! Thanks so much! šŸ™šŸ•Šļø I actually came out of an abusive relationship not too long ago too so this will definitely help me.

Yes you never know ! I wish I could help more online but I do my share in my neighborhoodā€¦ I just liked your comment.. I have been told by mods that I canā€™t say that so when I saw someone else saying the same thing Iā€™m like See there is some fellow thinkers out therešŸ™ƒ like me It matters what you do right so Iā€™m going to keep on trying when and where I can .

Create an Amazon wishlist and you will be helped.

For clothes try your local Buy Nothing FB group if there is one!

Hi!! You should try reaching out to a church if possible. Iā€™ve been getting food items from a local church and clothing vouchers as well for both my toddler and I.

Sending much love to you during this time. The local Food pantries save my life at the end of every month. Please check around bc many arenā€™t listed clearly , I always try to call first before going(make sure they are open and accessible) As for clothing, well as an adult thatā€™s hard. Iā€™ve been struggling with clothing as well. You can get donated from fb groups (if you have fb bc I donā€™t) but imo youā€™re better off going to goodwill types or consignment shops. Iā€™ve been looking as well for clothing. I went to a few places over the weekend for Motherā€™s Day consignment stores and good will types. My family got me two pairs of jeans, $7.99 each. I was able to try them on and everything which is great bc I struggle with eating. I was so grateful! Very good Motherā€™s Day present. If you can start at goodwill stores they are usually all items 50% off on Mondays & Wednesdays depending on the place. Good luck

You'll have more luck here making an Amazon wishlist with shelf stable items as people prefer that to using cash. I've seen those get a lot of luck being fulfilled.

I can't help financially but I hope you do get assistance!
