What if it were me?

What if I were the one who was a single mother with a couple of kids in an almost cardboard house?  What if I were the one who worked long hours but still couldn't make a quality life for my kids?  If someone were to raise money to build a house for me, how would I want to be represented?  Would I want people to take pictures of my mess and my despair and my ineptitude?  Or would I want them to see the reality so that they know my need is legitimate?  Could I even receive help?  Would my pride be hurt?  Would I be ashamed that I couldn't make it on my own very well?  What if it were me?  How would I want people to portray me and my house and my household to the world?
