I get foodstamps b/c I have a lot of people to support and some of which are not able to work, some are too young. I hate people that cheat the system. It makes the gov't make all these new rules that make it harder on us who need them. I work hard,but I still need some help.

No.  What the govt needs to do is make sure that the people on food stamps and welfare are actually citizens.  There are a lot of illegals in the "welfare"system and it truly irritates me.  I need help and I can't get it but people who aren't citizens walk in and get whatever they want.  The food stamps and welfare are for citizens who need short-term help for whatever reason.

I feed a homeless man 5 days a week. On my way home from work I stop by Taco Bell and pick up 3 or 4 tacos. He always tries to give me a newspaper to pay me back, but I don't take it. It just makes me feel good helping him out with a hot meal.

Ever hear this?\n"There is no such thing as a free lunch"\n\nOccasionally people do give things out free ... do you?\nIt's called "karma" ... you get back what you give out.\n\nGood luck ... try paying for things ... you might be able to get a good deal if you are willing to pay a bit for it.

http://www.liheap.ncat.org\n\nThey provide help with paying high utility bills for low income families. Just type in your state in the search bar on the left.\n\nThe local Dept. of Human Services. Maybe they can help with getting food stamps or some other assistance. \nAlso, there's some charities that might help, Catholic Charities, United Way, and The Red Cross. In my town, the local Baptist Association helps people out with money or clothes. If I think of more I'll add them later.

Well, in my town, they usually hang around Wal-Mart. Burger King is right next to it. There are not a whole lot of homeless people though. Most are veterans who are missing limbs, so I always feel really bad for them. I don't like just giving them money because you just never know what their going to buy with it (like booze or drugs). However, I hate to see people going hungry. So, I usually stop by Burger King and pick them up a meal. So, if your able to do this, that would be my suggestion. Or, you could point them in the direction of the nearest homeless shelter if you have one in your community.

You automatically qualify for food stamps & medicaid for your children.The state goes after the father of your child or children for child support. You should also qualify for CCMS.They pay for your child care so you can get a job.You can choose a day care or a trusting relative to care for them. Be Blessed!

social services can usually direct you where to go in your area and may also provide you with a voucher for a holiday meal, clothes etc. God bless.

Call 411 and ask for services like United Way. They could help you. Also some people ask for help in Ebay ads. Look in the Yellow Pages for community agencies. Call the library and tell them about your situation they can give you specific ph numbers as well.

I would check on line first to see if there were any thing there for free to at least help out some.  Sometimes there are clinics that will work with you on payments as well.

People on aid can get cash, food stamps, medical, and housing help. The amount of cash and food stamps all depends on thwe amount of dependents they have.\nIt should be monitored how long they stay on aid. It should be just until they get on thier feet and not be years.

Free food. I used to work at a grocery store and we'd all just write stuff off if we were hungry. Managers too.
