Hi everyone I am new to this website, I have been searching desperately for grants online and any way to make a little extra money...all to no avail...either I don't make enough to get a loan, I have bad credit, and I just can't find a grant for my needs. I am a mature 18 year old female who had a bad experience growing up....seperated parents both seeing other people all hateing eachother. One a drug addict, the other an alcoholic. I moved out of home when I was 16 and moved in with a guy. Lived with him for 2 years, things didnt work out. Now I am liveing with my aunt and uncle. I have a job, I work as a fuel center attendant at an Albertsons. I make less than $200 dollars a week. My uncle was haveing a bad time at one point and I made a little comment (jokeing) and he blew up and kicked me out for awhile. Which is win I ran into trouble. I do not know anybody, I have no transportation, no where to go. So, I had to spend alot of money ( that I didnt have) on taxi and motel, had no way to get to work. Even though I have moved back in, from that time....I am in debt....just a little bit. I am only $1500 in debt right now...but, makeing less than 200 a week, I can't pay it all off at once, and everytime I pay a little...it still goes up...at this rate, I will never get it paid off, and it will keep raising. I want to better my life, I want to go to college, I want to get a better job, I want to be able to get out on my own. In order to do any of this, I will have to have a vehicle. Problem: I need the money, and don't make enough to get a 1500 loan. Plus no one to co-sign and no collateral. The Solution I came up with: If someone can lend me 1500 dollars right now, it will take me four months at 100 dollars a week but, I will pay it back. As far as the car goes....anyone who can get me a cheap car that runs and drives...not picky about what kind or the way it looks...as long as it is dependable. Any amount of help would be greatly appreciated! It will help me build a future for myself. Thank you! Sincerely,
