A Charlotte teacher and single mother of three is doing everything right, but still can't get ahead financially, so she sought help from a local nonprofit that helps people learn budgeting and even offers zero-interest loans.

Common Wealth Charlotte is changing lives, often by teaching basic budgeting skills that a lot of us just didn't learn while growing up. Some of their programs literally give money away to people who need a little help.

Ximora Livingston was a single mother raising three kids and working multiple jobs when she decided to go back to school.

"I would work during the day — we would come home together, they did their homework, I did my homework — and we made it work," Livingston said.

Livingston started out volunteering at her kids' school before she became a teaching assistant. She then decided to become a teacher.

"It's very powerful because I want them to see if I can do it," Livingston said. "With all of my responsibilities you can do it and you don't have these responsibilities." #money #shorts #studentloans #debt #money #news #localnews #finance #personalfinance
