Need help for a few days!

Hello everyone, I'm new here! My name is Rick. I'm trying to find some temporary food assistance for my family, until the beginning of the month. There are three of us, myself, 30, my fiance, 26, who is diabetic, and her grandmother, who is 76 but acts like she's 50 :). We hate asking for help, but I also hate not being able to provide for my family. Thank you!

(Not sure if I'm allowed to post here to better explain, but I will, if it needs to be removed I won't be sad!) - We have a Walmart less than 2 miles away, so if we get help in the form of a walmart gift card or something similar, we can walk there and between the two of us carry everything back :). That's how we get food and other things when friends can't provide a ride.

you are very welcome

Contact them and explain that you have an elderly woman in need of food and no transportation, they may deliver or find you a ride. $30 isn't going to go far. After paying for a cab to and from the store, you wouldn't be able to afford much food for your place and be right back at square one. Best wishes you get your food miracle

Hi everyone, just wanted to say thank you for the well-wishes so far! I have tried to find transportation to the food pantries (I have none of my own), but nobody is available, which is why I posted here :). Going to keep trying though!
