my (new) husband and I are both trying to recover from divorces where we got taken to the cleaners. I have a ton of debt on my credit rating that my Ex is slowly paying off, medical debt that is in MY name because I WAS the one who took my daughter to all the doctors…she has 5 diseases and i have her on medicaid now, which helps. My husband is a trucker and i see him only a couple days a month until i can afford to move to CA to be where he drops every week…he's got a great 'dedicated run' now which guarentees good miles, after being with a large company for 3 years and made it to an elite team of drivers…but his lease is up in feb…and we can't go to the bank for money, we're living week to week and have struggled with pulling our heads above water so i am looking for a way to get a) SOME money for a downpayment on a truck and b) for a move hopefully.

there are no grants for such things…at least not what i've seen from the governement and there is no family to call upon also. His father is dying now in another state and finances have been short so that my husband could take time off to get him into hospice but his father is leaving nothing also, just enough for buriel, so at least we won't have to add that to our current mound of medical debt.
we're praying but a few places to research would help. ! thanks for whatever help you can be!
I'm not sure what you mean by 'his lease' and why you need money for it. When you say he is working for a large company, how come they not providing him with a truck?
Maybe your husband should try look for another work where he don't have to get a loan for a truck? He can save up some money and hopefully he can bring you to CA and save enough for a truck.
I'm sorry to hear about your daughter and father in law.
Wish you guys all the best.
