Not only that, if she tells her story on DU, I'm sure that, unlike her fellow Churchmen, the lefties will freely open their wallets and send her money. Oops, that's not the way they work. Instead, they would open my wallet and send her money.

Some people do find themselves down on their luck--she could have gone thru a recent divorce and kept the child and lost her right arm in a car accident. Stuff happens. And I would hope that her family and the people in her Church would have helped her thru the hard times--I once went on food stamps many years ago for about six months to eat because I was too proud to admit to my family that I had messed up.
But Sara, if you are bothering to read this, becoming a permanent ward of the State is no way out of your dilemma. I don't know any Republicans who begrudge you a temporary helping hard--remember, the current welfare system is the reformed welfare system designed by, shock of shocks, Newt Gingrich and the Republicans in the 1990's and you seem to think it has served you well.
The older system, designed by dems, was designed to get people hooked on welfare and keep them there for life--that way, they would be dems for life. With that deal with the devil, the dems created America's first underclass since the days of slavery. Don't get hooked.
No there isn't.
As another poster observed, they'd probably just send her a list of 'phone numbers for government agencies.
