Under the words Ask a Question in the Q&A, there is a magnifying glass. If you type the key words "like Para vs Por" in the space you will get previous answers on this forum. - Jubilado, Jun 23, 2014

Hello Judy,
Welcome to the SpanishDict.forum 
This chart / table will hopefully give you a better idea of when to use por or para.
I hope this helps
