Try calling local social services office (ours in NC has a program that helps cover heating/cooling costs for low/fixed income individuals- up to a certain amount). Our power companies also have a fund set up (not sure how to apply for this one though). Or call your local United Way, check to see if you have Cooperative Christian Ministies in your area they are there to help with prescriptions/food/shelter/heat/air costs also. Good Luck!

I am a disabled female and have tried to secure help but cannot find any. I am interested in worling from home. I need a car, rewiring of door bell to indicate someone is at the door, a better indicator of smoke and fire, and I am using a cell phone which is hard to hear ring as well as individuals calling. I lost everything in Hurricane Katrina and because of the inability of having a land phone the majority of the people here opted to have cell phones which I have retained.

I am looking for help  and I do not have monies to pay for a kit or whatever nor am I interested in illegal activities.

 If you cannot help, please forward this to someone who is willing to help.

May God bless you.

dukeeuc, most people don't really need to buy your book to know how to get medications at a free or reduced cost. Just by calling your local hospitals/doctors office, many places are willing to help. My hospital gives me my would-be 500 dollar a month medication in free samples because I cannot afford that. Walmart and Target also have this new 4 dollar prescription. Basically, there are some generic medications available at a 4 dollar or less price. Of course it is limited to a list, but many commonly prescribed medications are on that list. It's been great for my anti-depressants. You know what it's like to be disabled... don't forget that there are others as well, who probably can't afford much. So keep in mind. The best thing you can do is offer help regardless of whether or not you can make a buck.

If I may make a suggestion to dukeuc86,lower the price of your e-book,because anyone on a fixed income cannot afford $19.95. Lower to $5.95,and sell it on ebay! And be careful as you can only make up to so much money if you are receiving disability and earning extra money to survive. Also remember that on the Montel Williams show they advertise how people can get their medicine for reduced or at no cost. Then sometimes there are certain states in the USA that have perscription coverage for free for the residents of their state. You might want to add more information for people that are disabled. You have to create a book that will be helpful to the disabled,similar to their phone book. Besides having phone numbers the phone book also has other information handy. Just a thought.

I was in a car wreck about 17 years ago, which left me disabled. I am trying to make a living from my home computer. I have written a book entitled A Little Book of Hope. The book has 18 drug companies that offer their medications free to people with incomes $18,000 or less. The list of medications the companies carry are listed in the book. Names of company and the toll free numbers are also listed. I have used the book myself for my prescriptions. The book sales for $19.95. To purchase this booklet please write me at dukeuc86@yahoo.com. I will give you my address and send the book to you. God bless and have a wonderful day. Sherry

I am a widow single mom disabled with fibromyalgia, arthritis all over my body, spinal bulging discs, bursitis, and knees that the doctors won't operate on cause they say i am too young. I recieved my BA in 2001 but have not had an interview. I am on disability $600 a month. I get food stamps and occasional emergency fund for electric bill. I have a problem too financial. My daughter is in her freshman year at WCU and never has money to buy the clothes she needs to wear. I haven't bought clothes in 15 years. Now the landlord who left me buy this doublewide trailor which I owe $70,000 on yet is trying to foreclose because i am behind on the payments which he set up so this would happen. He did not escrow anything and i am trying to come up with $200 for taxes--$540--monthly pay--$1080--behind--and home owners insurance of $145. Plus electric--phone--tv--paper stuff that food stamps do not cover. My daughter and I cannot get a finacial loan to pay this guy off and we don't have enough income to get a mortgage. I want to move and we have to find owner financing which is almost impossible. That is what got me here. I need a car cause a guy is ripping us off for $3,700 for a geo prism that the engine is going out. It has broken down already twice. I owe him around $2000 more. We can't get a car for the same reason's we can't get a mortgage. Can anybody help us? I am so ill and can't work. I keep looking for something that will work around my disabilities but nothing has shown. Please if someone could help email me at lynettehelsel@gmail.com and I will gladly answer any questions or information more needed. Sincerely--Lynette

also, i getting to the point to where i cant walk. i have tried already for a year to get a scooter, with medicaid, but no luck, you see too many people lied to the medicaid and either they were really not disabled as they were suppose to be and they were able abled to get a scooter or a wheel chair, therfore so many dissabled people are left with no way to get around.

Hi my name is Kit. Don't like to speak of my disability but it's there to remind me every day. I'm seeking a grant for a new roof on my home being that the water and bats are and have become environmentally not safe. With winter around the corner I pray that some assistance comes my way. thanks for listening
