Quality Financial Services is a website for people looking for ways to decrease their debt, gain a better education, and moms and students looking for grants. I have a list of different things you can qualify for regarding obtaining free money. Most listed here are for anyone, not just single moms looking for college financial aid etc..
Grants for Moms & Everyone Else
Many stay at home moms are going back to school or thinking of it. Sometimes it is a financial issue as to why they cannot go back to school. On this site we explore the different ways that moms can obtain free money to pay for their schooling.
Grants are even better than obtaining a school loan because with a grant there will be no need to pay it back, therefore no getting deeper into debt. For college grants you can learn a lot by visiting your local state college and talking to a counselor. My husband has obtained grants that have paid for all of his classes for 3 years. In addition some years we have received over $2,000 for books and living expenses. Non of which we have had to pay back.
What type of financial aid can you get?
Housing – Check your local housing department. It’s called the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program or Public Housing Authority.
House Repair – Check the Rural Housing and Repair Loans and Grants program in your area. You can potentially qualify for $7,000 or more for home repairs.
Emergencies – Look to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services DHHS.
Food Stamps – Our family has on two occasions had to dip into this fund and while it was not fun to stand in line and fill out long forms, watch a 30 minute movie and basically feel totally humiliated that we had to resort to this. We have been paying taxes for many years and this is part of what our tax dollars are for. Take advantage of what is in place for you and your family. At one point we were receiving over $300.00 a month in food stamps.
Check your local Social Services office.
Adoption – Parents who have adopted a child can get up to a $10,000 plus tax break. Talk to your local tax consultant.
