As a parent, I can tell you that I feel like it’s my job to take care of the basic needs so you can focus on your job which is your education. My hope is to remove obstacles for my boys so they can thrive and maybe buy me food later in life lol.
I appreciate where your head is, but you finding success in life will make some of the tough stretches worth it:

You can start a YouTube channel focused on educational content, which has earning potential. For creators under 18, YouTube allows a parent or guardian to manage the account and receive payments on their behalf.
What you do: Make educational videos (study tips, explainer lessons etc.).
Skills you build: Public speaking, scripting, video editing, branding, consistency.
Beginner-friendly? Yes—start simple (slides + voiceover).
Time/week: ~3–8 hours (1 video/week is realistic).

I googled "Will Career Village help me find a job". and the following paragraph showed up:
"Career Village does not directly allow people to look for a job, but it provides a platform for individuals to seek career advice and guidance from professionals. The organization focuses on helping students and young people gain insights into various career paths and making career-related inquiries easier. While it does not offer job listings, it serves as a resource for career exploration and development." (Source: Career Village)
So, if you are looking to find a part time job, I'd recommend starting at the local level. Talk to businesses, peers, school guidance counselors, parents and their friends and maybe a Temp Agency. Some may have or know of part time jobs suited for you. To make a good first impression, present yourself in clean appropriate clothing, have confidence and be sincere. I'll relate my experience in getting a job at age 14. One of the businesses that I talked to was a pharmacy. The pharmacist who owned the pharmacy listened and was open minded. As it turned out he had been thinking about installing a small cafe-like eating area in the store. He hired me part time. At first, I learned cashier and stock duties but eventually, I worked the newly installed small cafe. It was my part time job after school. There was always a rush right after school let out each day and I thoroughly enjoyed the work. So, you never know what you may discover by just getting the word out. Best of Luck to you!
