Greetings and salutations to you all, thank you for your kindness in sparing your time. I hope that this message reaches you in the best of health. I am a 48 year old father to a 11 year old daughter and a husband to my 43 year old wife. It has been 10 months since we been evicted from our apartment and are living with family. I am the sole provider we can’t afford daycare so my wife is a stay at home to take care of taking our daughter to and from school. We just got blessed with a car about 5 months ago and now registration suspended because I can’t keep up with insurance and it lapsed and also behind on the monthly payments. Where we live at with family is far from my daughter school is a commute daily. I just can’t seem to save enough to get a place because of living paycheck to paycheck.

I humbly ask for help so I can get my family a place of our own again closer to where my daughter school is and to get caught up on our car bills which is vital part of my family now.

I am a true believer of the American Dream. Mine is going through some roadblocks right now due to not having enough income [Read more…]

Since 2008 I have been struggling to “fix” myself after brain surgery due to a neurological condition. While the physical stuff was pretty challenging, the real test was the one of my mind. I admit, I fell apart. I stopped trusting my own thoughts and decisions and, inevitably, made a mess of everything I touched. It took quite a while, lots of therapy, and many mistakes to get to a place where I finally started learning to trust me and my brain again. For the last 6 months I have been unemployed, doing random gigs, online and on-site testing, donating plasma, using cash advances, and living off what savings I was able to hoard in order to survive. I finally found a job I have been wanting to get back into, I’m creating again (I have 3 low content books published on Amazon KDP), and I actually have a pretty sound plan but time and money have run out. I need help to keep my roof over my head. My new job starts next week but the funds are needed now. I would appreciate whatever help you can give but I really need $2000. That will get my rent paid and give me enough to last until my first check. Ironically, my 51st birthday is on Monday and it would great to actually be able to celebrate without having a panic attack. I’m not sure how this works, but if you would like one of my low content notebooks I will definitely send one to you! My guinea pigs will be ever so grateful as well. Please. I don’t want to lose what little I have managed to keep for myself.

Hello, my name is Anna, and I found myself on this website after I heard about it on Youtube. I don’t normally like to share the difficult aspects of my life, and I am a very private person. However, I’m here because I decided to take a leap of faith.

I’m a single mom to two children (9 and 10 years old).

These last 2 years have been such a rollercoaster, and I lost 5 family members within a span of 6 months and became a single mom.

2023 has been a very eventful year.

I separated from my longtime partner of 13 years and became a single mother to my two children in February.

I live in California, and most of my family lives out of state. In March 2022, my cousin, whom I view as my brother, reached out and wanted to help him change his life and be free from addiction. I opened up my home to him, vowed to help him stay clean, and four months later he decided to go back east. As much as I did not want him to go back, I trusted God to protect him, and three days later, I got the news that my cousin overdosed. I was in complete shock and was unable to forgive myself, but I had to stay sane to keep things in order for my family.

A month after my cousin passed away, I started a new position and worked 100% from home as an advisor in the senior living industry. I buried myself in my work to distract myself and used my pain as motivation to make sure I continued to be self-sufficient.

For the majority of my relationship with my ex (13 years), I was the breadmaker. My ex was either unemployed, in between jobs, or incarcerated. For most of my children’s lives, I’ve been their sole caretaker, and I will do anything and everything for my kids.

Two months into my new job (September 2022), my ex began to be completely intolerable. I worked strategically to leave my apartment with my children and dogs right after every shift. We’d come home when we knew my ex would be asleep and barricade my children’s bedroom doors so he wouldn’t disturb us. Luckily for us, he would leave by 6 a.m., which allowed my kids and me peace in the mornings.

One night in November, my ex and I got into an argument, and he took my car keys and wallet, so I couldn’t leave with my kids. (There was a time in the relationship where we agreed to never fight in front of our kids and usually wait until the kids were in bed, but he really changed over the night.) That night in November, he was trying absolutely everything to get a reaction out of me, and I continued to ignore him until he started picking on our son, and I was completely enraged when our son started to cry. He’s a complete narcissist and will do anything for a reaction. He will hurt my dog or pretend to hurt her just to get a rise out of me. He was threatening to physically hurt my son for not getting him the remote controller for the TV, and I called the police for help. The police did not do anything, and I found myself hitting a brick wall every time I called for help because the abuse could not be proved. They were looking for physical evidence (a bruise or a black eye) in order to remove him from our home.

So I decided to plan an escape and save as much money as I could to move out by March, and I accepted that I would have to walk on eggshells until I had my own place.
A week after our argument, my other cousin was hospitalized due to an accident. A month later, my cousin passed away, and I found out about his passing while I had COVID.

The last week of January, I attempted to call the cops again for a similar situation but was turned away. I decided to go to court and file for a restraining order or move-out order, and that same exact day I got a phone call that my grandma was in the ICU.

By the time it was February, my life was completely upside down, and I was still trying to drown myself in work despite the challenges I was facing in my personal life. I was able to take some time off of work to spend time with my grandma before she passed away. After a week off of work, I went back to my normal routine and just did my best to keep everything together.

I have over $3500 per month in bills, and I am the sole provider for my children. By the time my ex was ordered to leave, he removed himself from the lease, stopped paying for half of my rent, and I was financially responsible for everything. I was not qualified for any government assistance, nor have I received any child support.

I thank the Lord every day for blessing me with a career that can support my family of 3 plus 2 dogs.

Unfortunately, in April 2023, I hit a breaking point after I attended my grandfather’s funeral. I was unable to sleep, think properly, or function, and in June 2023, I had to go on a medical leave from work. Since I was not yet employed with the company for a year, I was ineligible for FMLA and had no choice but to pay my bills with my credit cards and my savings.

My medical leave ended up being 2 months long, and I just went back to work a month ago. My income is not the same as it was in May because I’m starting from scratch, and it takes at least 4-5 months to start seeing the fruits of my labor with my job. I used to also do grocery delivery as a side hustle to have extra money, but with the outrageous gas prices, I stopped driving 50 miles to get to the city, where I actually get orders to shop for people. My financial situation has completely changed since May, and I’ve also been avoiding my dentist and have postponed my dental procedure because I can’t afford it at this time. I’ve been wearing a temporary crown on my front tooth since May, and my tooth was scheduled to be extracted in August. I am also now in a position where I don’t know how I’m going to be able to pay all of my bills for the next few months, as this paycheck I just received will allow me to pay for my utilities, my phone bill, and groceries. I won’t have enough for my rent in less than 2 weeks, but I am hoping and praying for the best possible outcome.

I will be 31 in a few weeks and will be a mom for officially 11 years, 5 days after my birthday next month. My daughter will be turning 11. My daughter and son mean the absolute world to me.

11 years ago, I was in a woman’s shelter because I had a broken relationship with my parents. They were not accepting of me becoming a mom so soon, so I moved out to protect my daughter and contacted 211 for assistance. 11 years ago, I was saved by God, and he changed my life completely. God placed me in a beautiful shelter, which I lived in for 8 months. God transformed my life, and everything I prayed for then, God has blessed me with now. My relationship with my family has been mended, although distance is still a challenge. Despite my current circumstances, I know how faithful God is. He will not forsake me, as he always keeps his promises. I am grateful that God continues to provide, and therefore I am blessed.

I want to tell you how much I appreciate the time you shared with me to learn about my situation. I am fully aware and understand that there are people who are in need of more help, and I pray for them.

I would appreciate many prayers and want to thank you again for your time.

Prayers and all donations are appreciated.

God bless.

I’m not entirely sure where to start here. I have a penchant for TMI, and it often causes more problems than it solves, but here is my story and why I’m here today…

3 years ago I relocated back to America after living in England for 20 years. My first job back was cashier in a retail store I took, so I could save to build my credit from 0, and further get a car. Then I could be an Uber driver. I wanted to be a taxi driver ever since I saw a music video in ’92.

Once I got Sheila E. my Camry, I was ready to hit the road. Started driving with Uber and in 11 months I managed to save $4k, and built my credit to a very good score. I was proud of what I had achieved, and I was happy. And single. The only thing I didn’t have was my own place to live. It was alright sharing, but I wanted my own apartment. I was almost there. Then I fell into a relationship trap with someone who wasn’t at all who I thought. Everything you wouldn’t want from a man; cheating, lying, manipulating, etc. I confronted him, and he didn’t like that.

After leaving I got my own apartment but I wasn’t alone. He was cyber-stalking me, stealing identity, and much more. He was trying to financially and emotionally ruin me. Anyway, I couldn’t drive, and I lost my apartment within 3 months. I had to move back in with my father again. After a few months of heavy drinking, I started getting things together again, and then I met another guy in a local bar. I wasn’t looking for a relationship, but he was persistent and charming. At first anyway. He moved in with us and things were ok.

Then I wanted to move back to the city, because that’s where I could really make money again driving. What I truly love doing. I’ve had plans now for the last 2 years to go to Duke for post grad studies in Health & Wellness Coaching (which I feel is my true calling) but telling toxic family members about it was a mistake. Anyway, I still dream to go there, but that’s not the reason I’m here asking for help.

The guy I decided to move into a new apartment with in May this year, became a completely different person when we moved in. I helped him get a new job in a warehouse, earning more than ever, but he was never truly grateful. He never is. Nothing is enough unfortunately. He had bad spending habits and credit, and I tried explaining that we couldn’t be frivolous with spending, because bills and rent and more important things needed taking care of first. He became extremely controlling and jealous too. Didn’t want me to work as a driver anymore, because I liked it and picked up men. Even though it was strictly professional. He’d bought a car from my father, but didn’t want to drive it, because it was too slow, and he couldn’t drive on the busy highways. He said. So we shared my car. After 4 months of depression with me staying at home with our puppy, the penny dropped. And here we are. Here I AM anyway. Almost 2 months behind in rent. My credit card is maxed out (which I never had before,) all because I just had to give in to his whims and demands to keep some sort of peace. Emotionally beaten down.

Then all of the sudden a few weeks ago, I NEED TO WORK he told me. He can’t do it all on his own, and more types of verbal and emotional abuse. So I have been trying to get back to work, but almost every time I come home, there’s drama. He had my things packed at the front door once, or just makes me feel miserable to ruin the fact I enjoyed my shift. I have pawned things to come up with some money. He refuses to pawn things he owns.

I don’t want to be with him anymore, but we both signed the lease. And the only downfall of self employment is lack of healthcare. (I’m relying on his benefits as well, seeing the doctor I love, and saw when I was with the last headache.) He said I could take my name off the lease when we pay rent, but I know if I do, he’ll start saying it’s his apartment and I need to move out. I like where we live. Especially the location. It’s perfect for my work, being so close to the airport.

He’s extremely manipulative. Always playing games, and furthermore, I found out he’s also cheated. He has hidden dating apps on his phone. I have reason to believe he’s installed spyware in my phone as well. To keep tabs on me. Same thing the guy I saw before did. So, I am in a public library writing this to keep my privacy.

I don’t know what to do. I thought about going back to England, because I’m somewhat homesick, but I can’t leave my puppy behind. He’s a pitbull, and he’s not allowed entry there, and here, he’d be abused. I also have an adopted cat I love, too.

So, the only thing I can hope to ask for is enough money to catch up on my rent. Perhaps enough to help me get back on my feet again. To set aside, so I actually CAN leave in the near future and head southwest. Start a new life in another state. I have dreams and goals of getting so far in life with a career, though I feel I need trauma healing therapy, and abilities to create to create stronger boundaries to get there.

Thank you for reading my plea. And if you made it this far, thank you again for taking the time to. Genuinely appreciative. Have a blessed day.

 

 

I went through a monumental set back back in my life having to start with nothing and have climbed up out of homelessness into my own apartment.  I badly injured myself that has taken over 2 years to recover from and have started physical therapy the end of August.  My landlord has been patiently waiting for the amount I owe in back rent.  I cannot physically work yet.  I need $3,000 for back rent plus $1,000 for current rent and $3,000 to repair my car and get it registered.  It is parked with 2 flat tires that keep going flat after repair work at auto shop.  I need new set of tires for winter and  emission work and windshield to get my car to pass state inspection and get the registration and license plate for it so I have transportation to a job once I can work a job again.  I need $7,000 which will keep me from being evicted and being homeless and have transportation to get to work in the very cold snowy climate in Vermont in winter coming soon.

I had broken my leg and nearly ripped all of my ligaments on both knees.  I could not walk for a long time.  My apartment is upstairs and I was home bound because I could not go up and down stairs.  I am walking now but still have great difficulty with stairs.  I have a few more months of physical therapy and healing before I can return to a job.  I only receive food stamps and no other source of income.  It has been a struggle each month asking  for help with phone bill and car insurance paid by a disabled friend on very low income.  When I am healed, I can work again and support myself.

I just went through a terrible flood disaster in July in Vermont.  Everything  in front and back of my house washed away in the flood.  I am trying to hold on after having climbed my way up from nothing.   I have trained for good job when healed so am nearly back on my feet when I am recovered enough to start working if my financial need is met by caring people who can help me.

Bless you for helping me! paypal.me/Sparklingbluesaphire

Hi,

I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing this with a heavy heart to tell you about my current financial situation, which has left me unable to meet my most basic financial obligations, including my rent of $2,500.

Over the past few months, I have faced some challenges which greatly weighs me down, unexpected medical expenses, job loss, inability to pay my rent, which have significantly impacted my income. Despite my best efforts to budget and find work, , my financial condition has reached a point where I am extremely broke, and I find myself unable to afford even the necessities.

I understand the importance and responsibility of paying rent, and it deeply distresses me to be in this position. I value the home I have here . My intention is not to avoid my obligations, but rather to seek assistance during this incredibly challenging time.

I am actively searching for a new job and exploring assistance programs, and I am hopeful that my situation will improve in the coming months. In the meantime, I am asking if there might be any way i could address my rent payments. I just want to pay my rent so i can have a place to sleep.

I am more than willing to provide any documentation or further information you may require to verify my current situation. Once I am in a better financial position, I am committed to addressing any arrears.

I appreciate your understanding during this difficult period in my life.

Thank you for your consideration and understanding.

Warm regards,

odemijie osemudiamen.
