The day she returned from maternity leave lost my job as a software test engineer due to lack of work. It's been a week and I have been searching desperately for a new job, but the market is so terrible right now. I was the breadwinner and now we have enough money to pay our medical bills, mortgage, child care, electricity and gas, or even our car payment. Is there any government help out there? Our net monthly income of 6000 has been reduced to less than 2000
No. The Government is not in the business of giving free money for the good giving away money. There are no grants for paying bills, no grants to pay credit cards, no grants to get out of debt and not just subsidies for fattening his wallet. Grants are free, but it means obligation. You are required to do what the grant proposes to do. Grants have objectives, and its purpose must conform to the objective of the grant. On the one hand, you have to write the grant application and grant application is not a simple document – you have to explain how your purpose for requesting the grant fits well with the objectives set by the grant. There is a rigorous review process through a committee. You compete with other applicants for the grant money, and the grant committee to evaluate the merits of each proposal. Only those who feel exemplifies the objective of the grant be approved. You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) and http://www.cfda.gov Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov – these are two sites created by the federal government to ensure transparency and information on grants. Browse through the list and see if you can find any grant to support its purposes. Even if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants – all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. Note however that these grants support generally non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments. Most federal grants are awarded to specific groups with specific needs (eg minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT – Grant # 20.905 Business disadvantaged business program of short-term loans.
