Story

Minus or 11 year old here

I am a new father, Chef, and former middle school teacher that, within the last 2 years, entered into a blended family, moved across the country to be with them and try to build a good life for them. Shortly we had the surprise of our twins! So now, a family of six, we are doing our best to keep our head above water.

I work full time, and we live in a rural and poor area. I am a chef and work over 40 hours a week and next week I will be starting another job doing catering. Unfortunately over the summer I was temporarily laid off and struggled to even get by on unemployment. This put is severely behind and now with working and all the life changes, I am just not making enough to even pay our mortgage this month.

My wife is also looking to get a part time job for when I am home but I know being home and taking care of 2 babies, a toddler, and a preteen is a job itself.

If someone would be so kind as to help me in this time of need. It is hard for me to go and ask for help like this but with not any other options left to turn to, I hope to find kindness in others.
