Hi my name is Juan I am retired USMC. I need financial assistance with my rent. I have written several veterans charitable organization looking for assistance or the least guidance. Only Veterans Helping Veterans responded. They were not able to help me. I am not making any unrealistic assumption on my behalf I am just looking for help or guidance before I become a Census statistics "Homeless Veteran with his family in the street". Anyway as you can see in my writing I am a little frustrated and scared.
I am one month behind in my rent...April- $1235.00 plus $20 dollars accrue daily. Starting the 6th of Apr. My electric bill is due the 10th. Water is on a extension. My car was repossed last month.
I have been very active with the local VA Rep at Orlando "Workforce"; Job placement assistance. The last three weeks have been full of no luck.
