What's the best way to support my single mother friend?

One of my friends is a single mother, and she's having a hard time with three kids. She's in another state, and I can't give her money. I feel like I can't really do a whole lot that is helpful. How can I help her and her kids without overextending myself or feeling totally helpless?

It's pretty retarded that you can't reply directly to people on here like you could on EP. MrsGearhead, yes she's actually a real friend of mine and isn't scamming me at all. (Besides, she's getting nothing but emotional support from me and prayers when I can give them.) She's turned down money from me several times. I'm not feeling sorry for her because she has kids or is pretty or any of that. Friends care about friends. This world isn't totally gone to shit yet, love.
