If you are here illegally, go home. Apply for citizenship in the correct manner.
If you are here legally, contact your local Church. They will help you, but they may also probably expect you to make steps on your part to take care of yourself.
There is nothing wrong with that.
And p.s. It is the job of the CHURCH, not the government, to take care of those who are down and out.
Churches do charity.
Governments do force.
You may not have noticed The Church and citizens stopped having sympathy for the down trodden once the Government interceded. No use helping them double dip, we certainly don't get that benefit ourselves.
