The point is, our rent is due between the 1st and the 5th of January and we don't even have half of it. (rent is $410)

I have tried contacting local charities that assist people with rent and no one has funds available. We also do not have any family that can help us.

I don't know what to do at this point and could really use some advice, quick.

Thank you.
Call your local Catholic Church and ask if they have a St. Vincent DePaul Society in the parishes that could help you. Don't worry if your not Catholic or Christian or anything- they are there for anyone who is facing a problem such as yours. Also, they don't demand that you pay them back. If you can eventually donate back to them, that is great, but there will be no pressure to do so.

Best of luck.
