Help Prevent Eviction and Support Family

My name is Moses Carty.
It’s been over 4 months that I haven’t had a job. I'm currently having problems finding a new one. I’ve applied for over 45 jobs, some from which I haven’t heard anything back, and had multiple job interviews but haven't had any success as yet. I was fired from my previous job after getting injured and trying to file for workman's compensation. They then told me that I wasn't injured on the job because I couldn't tell them how it happened. I was working at US Foods on a night shift and woke up the next morning with my foot swollen and couldn't walk. I went to the hospital and was told I have an acute fracture and was told that I had to do light work for 6 weeks. I informed my job at the time of what happened and was told there isn't any light duty work they could have me do and was sent home on an unpaid leave of absence. I tried filing for workman's compensation and was called 3 weeks later by one of my managers telling me that I was being terminated for a false claim. We are now facing an eviction and owe over $6000 in rent not including utilities and other bills with nowhere to go. I've tried everything to keep us afloat from asking close friends and family members for help but everyone seems to be tied up with their own problems they're dealing with. I've even tried getting a loan but nothing seems to be working. I even reached out to the cooperation team that owns my apartment complex and explained my situation to them so they could at least delay our eviction but I'm running out of time. This sucks because I'm not the person to sit on my butt just asking for cash. We have a 3-year-old and a son on the way, who is said to come on November 27th, 2024. I want the best for my family as any man would. I don't plan to piggyback off anyone but I had to put my pride aside to get some help. Baby K is on the way, our young baby boys deserve better than what I had growing up and I plan to do the best for them and my lady by securing a job as soon as possible.
