PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Briefly describe the planned improvements. Please attach additional information to back of application.

House pipes are clay from 1935 when house was built. Pipes have cracked and get clogged often, causing a very bad smelling water and sewage to flood the basement, requiring Roto Rooter to come, often for $350 per cleaning. It is very expensive for my Social Security income and very embarassingto guests. It is time, after 91 years for the house sewer line to be modernized to polyvinyl chloride PVC pipes and finally stop the clogging and high expense. Quotes have been obtained by local contractors, and Drish Construction has much experience and good references .

Estimated total cost of planed improvements/repairs: $ 12000 - $13500

Amount of Financial Assistance requested from the RHTF: $  12000

I am separated from my wife with a divorce pending (case CDCV402064), and file taxes as , Married Filing Separately (MFS) at 806 North 4th Street, Fairfield, IA 52556. My divorce in Jefferson County Iowa is pending with a hearing scheduled for April 27, 2026 in Jefferson County family court. Oksana, lives and works in Washington DC in a condo.  She does not contribute anything to my finances or household expenses. We lived apart with no shared resources for almost all of 2025. My only income is Social Security ($10,320), SSI ($1,560). I qualify for SNAP food assistance of approximately $210 per month. I pay the full Chase mortgage of approximately $1,000 per month on the house (jointly deeded with my spouse), which uses up virtually all my income. Renting is impractical until the sewer pipe is fixed, to keep flushing to a minimum, to prevent the need for Roto Rooter, $350 per cleaning. The remaining living expenses are covered by an $11,830 student loan from Sofia University for an online PhD program to improve my computer skills, expected graduation ~2030; $2,000 for tuition and the rest for living expenses. These are repayable loans and are not income. I am a full-time student and have no other sources of support.
