Hello:
My name is Geri and I am a 64 year old widow who is in desperate need of some temporary financial help. Everything that I own is in storage in Southern California because I made a terrible mistake. I moved to Brookings, Oregon thinking that it would be a great place to live and go back to work. You are probably asking where I moved from and why I came to Brookings. Well it is like this. After my mother passed away at the age of 96 I decided to leave Southern California for a number of reasons. One being that I didn't like the town she lived in and never had. Second I had thought that I would move back to San Jose, CA. I actually went to San Jose but unfortunately there were no jobs and housing was not within my budget. So I came to Brookings because a friend told me what a nice place it was to live and that there were lots of jobs. It is a nice place to live but there are no jobs. At the moment I need some money for rent fast. I have tried everything I think of to raise the rent money. Including friends and relatives. They don't have it. If you can help me it would be greatly appreciated. I am on food stamps, the state is paying my electric bill, the state is also paying $13.50 on my basic phone bill. Any amount will be of great help.
Thank you for reading this and GOD bless you.
