I hear a lot of churches have Bingo nights, and there are sandwich making clinics where you make sandwiches for the poor. You can also get help at your local YMCA. There are also day cares to drop your kids off so you can go out and meet single mothers and fathers like yourself.

WIC, or "Women, Infants and Children", is a nutritional program for pregnant women and single women with children under 5 years, providing free food. There is the Earned Income Credit, providing a financial incentive if you are working. There are discounted or free childcare programs, such as Head Start.
