Re: (OT) I'm desperate

You might check out www.Modestneeds.org. I just read about it in the
Reader's Digest. A man has set up a group to give small amounts of
financial help to people who need it. If you write about your problem and
say you'd like a couple of hundred dollars to pay someone to clean your
house, who knows? You might be one of those chosen to be helped.
