My husband and I both just lost our jobs due to the business closing down with no warning. We have 2 boys ages 10 and 9 and a 7 y/o girl. We have a very high heating bill so all of the money we get has to go to pay on that. We live in Wayne County Illinois and if anyone would like to help us with Christmas presents or knows of a place that might help please email me @ mommyredneckgirl@yahoo.com
I hate doing this but this is not a good year. Thank you. Merry Christmas everyone. God Bless.

I have looked for another job. We live in a pretty small town pretty far away from bigger cities. Not even McDonald's is hiring right now and I cant afford to drive an hour and a half to a city where there are jobs.

Try your DHS office or local churches. In my area, they help alot of low income families. I wish I could help you, but we're low on money too. Good luck, and Merry Christmas!

If you are desperate then take any job you can to support those kids. The Salvation Army is one place where they can help, churches too.
Once the holiday is over, check with career centers for job resources.
