My lease is up in 3 months and want to move to Vero Beach. I am recovering from near fatal MVA which left me with serious medical problems. I don't have any money to hire a moving co. Is there any help or loan available for hardship like mine. I am on S.S.D. and in need of moving expenses.

I am at the worst hardship ever in my life. I currently live in a old, falling apart 1 bedroom apt. for $1145. monthly and found a nice clean property in Vero Beach but I don't have any money to hire a moving co. My health & injuries from near fatal MVA on 9/5/2015 make it impossible to work any sort of job, unless I owned a computer. I need to move out within 3 months. I am stressing that I won't be able to move from this unsafe overpriced dump. Please contact me with any possibilities to get help moving.

We know of no such grants. There are instances when you can deduct such expenses on your taxes, so that could help some. But I believe the expense would be have to be due to a job requirement. You could check the website disability.gov and see if you can find anything there.

If you are good at telling your story you also might try crowdfunding. There are a number of crowdfunding platforms now that let you share your situation and  others will often help to fund your needs. Check out some details and more information about a few of the most popular personal crowdfunding sites. You might find a young friend who could help you make the video, they can do it now with just a smart phone so it doesn't have to cost much of anything.
