My fiancee just got laid off and we have two babies, and need to be out of our apartment by the 18th. We have another apartment lined up but need 700$ to move in. I hate putting this on the internet, I really do. I am a SAHM with one small check a month that I use to pay my bills and for diapers/wipes/baby stuff. I live in MA, and have tried calling churches and various programs that do not have funding to help or just won't because my fiancee's job is under the table so he has no proof of income.
If anyone knows of any agencies or any place that can help us, please contact me here or at kelleighbaby@yahoo.com -- I don't want my babies to go through being in a shelter or being on the streets. Thank you for your time.
Re: Please help
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. WIC (according to their web site) will accept a letter from an employer as proof of income; maybe your fiancee can get that (even if he can't provide pay stubs or time sheets)?
I wish you and your family luck with finding a way out of this difficult time.

Try Catholic Charities. I work in housing management and refer my residents there all the time for rent support, utility payments, etc.
Also consider calling United Way - there is support out there for you, don't give up.
