Some Catholic churches have a St. Vincent de Paul society whose purpose is to help people. You could start with the churches in your area and go from there. You don’t have to be a parishioner to ask for help.
My husband and I were volunteers when we lived in NJ and our group would help with rent, food, bills, getting cars repaired, connections to jobs- whatever we had the funds or ability to help with.
Search “St Vincent de Paul” in Google maps and it should bring up locations near you.

I did. They basically just help with rent.

Really? In NJ we helped with many things. Our group even ran a food pantry.
Perhaps you can try a different church. They're all independently run.
