Expert: Daryl Green, M.A. - 3/1/2001

Question
Where can I find lists, programs, funding, for furthering my education, as a single mother?

Answer
Hi Denise:

Thanks for that great question.  An education gives you the opportunity for a better life.  There is hope. Who am I? I, along with my wife, work with single parents and working couples to help them make good decisions.  We help them balance their lives. Can you use this help?

Well, your question is one of my passions. Education.  First, I would check with the local college in your area and talk with the financial aid office. Many times they have money available.  Next, I would go to www.fastweb.com and complete a personal profile.  They will find you scholarships and grants.  Here are other resources:
