Where to ask for help for my children for Christmas
I am a single mother of 6, I have struggled raising all on my own.. none of the fathers were involved at all (their choice). My 3 Older
Children are on their own, and the others are in a not so good situation. We have been homeless for 3 years, staying with family/ friends It isn't fair for them to have to go through this.. I have done my best to provide for them, it just breaks my heart that I can't give them A stable home life.when we weren't able to stay at family/friends home, we would sleep in the car, in parking lots of stores, my kids don't Deserve to be living like this, I feel like I am failing them as a mother... I have thought about putting them in foster care, but I couldn't Stand being away from them for more than a day, they are my world! Things start to get better, then next thing you know we are homeless Again after having own apt for one month. My Son would say everyday, mommy I don't want to sleep in the car, and every night I would cry, For my kids. We are currently in a shelter, we have been for the past 2 Months-since September 17th. I am trying to get an apt before Christmas, so they can at least have a tree. I promised them that this year we would have one, but it just don't seem that I am going to be Able to do that for them. So if there is anything someone can do for my children, PLEASE Just want them to have at least a good christmas. |

We can't directly do anything for you here. I am sorry you are in that situation. I know how the shelters work in Toronto, but not where you are. We have the Star Santa Claus Fund here, and they provide gifts and toys for homeless children in shelters, or anyone needy. Possibly the shelter where you are staying knows of some resources you can tap into to at least get through this coming Christmas. You are obviously doing the best you can. Tick |

The case workers at the shelter and the case workers where you get your welfare should have a contact list for local help Groups like Catholic charities and Toys for Tots, Salvation Army and more do a lot for families at the holidays. Also your local religious group of your faith ( if any) is often a great place to start also |
