Adult cat with kittens needs help in NC, USA

She lives about two hours away from me I really wish I could help her but I am full at the moment and my parents won't allow me to foster any more animals for a little while, here is her story:

I rescued a beautiful adult grey calico cat that was very pregnant from a woman that was starving her and about to take her to a high kill animal shelter. Even though I knew I could not keep her because I have 4 pets of my own, I could not let that happen to her, so I took her so I could provide her and her kittens a safe, loving indoor home until her kittens found homes of their own. Her kittens are 3 weeks old now so in about 4-5 weeks the cat (who I named Annie) will need a new home/foster home or rescue, and so will the 5 kittens. One of my cats beats her up often so when all the kittens are gone I would like someone to take her asap. I live in Jacksonville, NC but am willing to drive a reasonable distance to bring her to the person who takes her or meet them somewhere. If you can please help me out in any way (give her a home, foster her or tell me what rescue I could take her to), I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much!

Please if anybody could be so kind as to point us in the right direction to help this mother cat. She doesn't want to take her to a high kill shelter. I know the kittens have a greater chance of getting adopted but the mother cat is less likely to get adopted. Please help!

Thank you for rescuing these kitties!

Have you talked to rescue groups in the area?

Here are some easy searches you can conduct to see if you can find a shelter or further fosters:

Good luck!
