I am a single mum with two boys. The situation is going to the left side for me. I do not like the way my house is leaking on us, the front porch is not fixed, the kitchen and the shower room also need repair. My children ask me questions about how we can find another house, but my only reply to them is to be patient, that things will get better one day. I am in school right now until 2020, working and taking care of my children. Is there any advice or help available from any organizations?

Reach out to local churches. Most of them have handyman ministries that help families like yours. They do this with joy to help give back to the community. Blessings and prayers for you.

Borrow books on repair from the library. Treat it as a challenge, your kids might get interested and 'help'. If you can learn to do simple repairs around the house, it will always stand you in good stead, and also your boys. With the exception of electricity, not all home repairs are that difficult, and even if they are a bit amateurish-looking, all of you will have had a valuable experience in being independent.
The government may be able to help. So may local churches.
It would be useful to know whether you own th eproperty or are renting it.
If you are renting, surely it is the landlord's responsibility. Meanwhile, leaks can be temporarily fixed with a can of expanding foam.
Try YouTube for all kinds of tutorials. We've used it to repair several small things around the house, such as replacing an icemaker, unclogging an A/C drain, washer/dryer repair.
Do you own or rent? What country/state are you in? You need to give us more info please
