OK my grandma is 64 years old she is on oxygen and has heart problems. Her foundation of her house has fallen and caused the floors in the living room, dinning room and two bedrooms to fall dramatically. She really needs help she is on a fixed income and can not afford a contractor or anything like that is there anyone or anyway she can get free help with this who can fix her house.
Will her homeowers insurance cover this?
You might also try this for her.

Hi, michaeldownard19!
Just a couple of additional resources that you also might want to try.
Project NOW (http://www.projectnow.org/) They're a community action agency that helps people with low or no income. If you contact them, they might be able to help you to find a similar agency around where your grandmother is located.
Welcome to Habitat for Humanity of Ohio (http://www.habitatforhumanityofohio.org/) Worth a try, anyway.
Thanks!

Unfortunately Habitat for Humanity won't work. They typically only build homes for low income people who would not qualify for a traditional mortgage. (My FIL and MIL are president and VP of our local chapter of HFH).

Maybe not the organization itself. However, people who do work for the organization might know even more resources and people to contact who could help.
