I am a single mother. I face many challenges. I work a dead end job, and it is often hard to make ends meet. I live in a run-down apartment, and I have trouble getting the landlord to make necessary repairs and improvements. I applied for several grants for single mothers. I am hoping to go to college or at least learn job skills that will help me secure a better job. I am hoping to buy a house or at least be able to rent one that is in better condition than my current apartment.
