Hello,
I am trying to find grants that could help me pay for my diesle fuel for my truck, pay mortgage payments to keep me out of default, pay my electric bills to keep my electricity from being cut off, also the same for my water/sewage bill. I want to also fiind grant money to fix up my house, to take care of my kids, just anything that would help out with day to day expenses. I am a white married female total family number is four and I have children under the age of five. I have NO money and cannot and will not go to those *find a grant for a fee* sites...if you can find me a site where I can fill out a form with some of my info and they find the correct grants for me ABSOLUTLEY 100% free that would be best because I have spent the last three days searching the Grants.gov, and federal grants catalog site only to not find anything regarding an individual person or low income family. I need help before my family and I lose our house, can't pay for fuel for my husband to get to work, and have our lights and water turned off...I have also exhausted any local energy assistance programs...they are just totally out of funding for the year....and one more item NO SCHOLERSHIP GRANTS...I will not be attending school now or in the future...they are of no use to me. thank you for any help you can offer me.

There is no grant money for you just to pay your bills with, there may be grants for certain research projects, there may be grants for certain business, by certain classes of people, and for buisnesses in some depressed areas.

There are grants to go to school and some grants to help with the purchase of a home if you follow certain rules for living there a number of years and buy in certain depressed areas.

There are grants to some non profit groups that help low income with job training, with some electric assistance, and rent assistance, and normally you will find out about those though your welfare case worker, or from the electric company or gas company as what payment assistance they may have to offer.
