Hello and thank you for reading my plight.

My name is Mike and I am 53 years old.  I have Parkinson’s Disease, and just this year (in March), the symptoms finally progressed to the point that I was unable to work.  I am on disability now, but it is at 60% of what my salary was, which has made budgeting very tight.  Unfortunately, my wife was laid off her job (also in March) which has led to more financial strain.

What stresses me out the most is we have three children living at home, two of which are under the age of 10.  I don’t want to lose the house because it is the only home they have ever known.  I’m also worried about being able to feed them.  We have been going to food shelves, but don’t have much of a budget for groceries.

I am working on catching up on house payments, but am still $4,100 behind (I missed 3 payments waiting for disability to start, but have been paying a little extra each month since).

There is also $15,000 of debt (medical bills that I had to charge, I’m uninsured, and other debt).  If I could get rid of that, I would free up the $700 in minimum payments each month, and I would have grocery money.  Right now 79% of my income goes to house payments and minimum payments.

I know $19,000 is quite a bit to hope and pray for, but I have keep hope alive.  Anything and everything anyone can do to help would be so greatly appreciated.

Thank you from all my heart to for anyone who can help my family.

My name is Thurmon, and I’m humbly reaching out for help during one of the most challenging chapters of my life. Over the past few years, I’ve faced significant setbacks that have left me financially and emotionally strained.

Two real estate projects I was working on took unexpected turns, leading to $28,000 in credit card debt. Despite my efforts to recover, I was dealt another blow when four grants I wrote lost funding due to changes in this administration’s policies. Around this time, my marriage ended, and without W-2 income, I found myself unable to qualify for a rental apartment. I lived in an Extended Stay motel because it was the only option available to me. During this time, I also had to pay to keep my belongings in storage, an additional drain on my limited financial resources.

At 72 years old, I face additional challenges. With a bad back and limited job opportunities, I now drive for DoorDash to make ends meet. It’s enough to keep my head above water, but I’m unable to make substantial progress toward paying down my debts or rebuilding my life. While I’ve reached agreements with the credit card companies to stop interest charges, my accounts were frozen, and my credit card limits were reduced, which caused my credit utilization to skyrocket, further impacting my credit score. Most recently, I had a flat tire needing to replace 2 of them. During that process I was advised I needed brakes.

I am determined to rebuild my life, but I cannot do it alone. I’m seeking support to help me reduce my debts, regain financial stability, and move forward with hope. Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to me and help me take a step toward reclaiming my future.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for your kindness and generosity.

After 25 years my wife tells me she wants a divorce. I had to literally beg her to get counseling with me. She did but would set on the divorce. She never gave me a reason; just only said she wanted a divorce. I asked her, was it someone else, but she would only reply that she wanted a divorce. She started sleeping in our guest bedroom and not speaking to me. It was the most hurtful thing that I can remember happening to me other than the death of loved ones. Over the 25 years I had caught her a few times or more (I lost track) speaking to other men, ex-boyfriends and guy friends prior to us meeting one another. She always said she would stop communicating with them and it was because I wasn’t giving her enough attention. I’ve heard her tell them she loved them and wanted them to meet our children – one time she was on the phone and didn’t know I had come home. A matter of fact is that she was never satisfied; as soon as she got what she wanted, she wanted more – every time. We started off in our marriage with very little. We both wanted children, and I told her I would work as much as needed to provide everything we needed plus more, and she did not have to work. Although I made good money as an engineering technician, she told me she wanted to work, therefore I worked 2 jobs by picking up a second part-time job working at night so she could go to school and become a nurse. Upon her completion, it helped a lot as a two-income family. She was excited because she had very little growing up and no one to encourage her to do more in any positive way. It was good to see her excel and being promoted into management. She would come home and complain, I would listen to her and provide feedback carefully.

She even went to the courthouse and filed for divorce. Finally, after two years, I signed the divorce papers. All those years, I took care of her and our two boys, everything (including credit) was in my name, so I just kept all the debt, because I could not trust her to pay anything. She left me $100,000 in debt and I (not her) continued to financially support our two children that were in college. I’m in my mid-50s, it would be nice to put a good size dent in all this debt, and I really would appreciate assistance.

Dear Friends and Supporters of Begging Money.com,

I am reaching out today with a heartfelt and urgent request for assistance. My name is John, retired Firefighter 32 years of service, and for many years, my wife and I have worked hard to build a life that we are proud of. However, as we enter our Golden Years, we find ourselves facing a challenge that has become increasingly difficult to overcome. At 70 years old, while my wife is 72, our financial reality has shifted, and despite working two part time jobs, making ends meet has become a struggle.

For as long as I can remember, I have been dedicated to providing for my family and ensuring that my loved ones have what they need. Yet, as the years pass, the joy of spending time with our family—especially our two wonderful grandchildren—has become even more precious. Unfortunately, the weight of mounting debt has forced us into a cycle of constant work, leaving little time for the simple pleasure of sharing our lives and memories with the next generation. The stress of these financial burdens is not only affecting our quality of life but also keeping us from fully embracing the time we have left to enjoy what should be the most cherished moments of our later years.

That is why I am humbly asking for your help. I am seeking to raise $45,000 to retire our debt, an amount that, once settled, will lift an enormous burden from our shoulders. With this debt eliminated, my wife and I will be free to step away from the relentless grind of part-time work, and instead, devote our time and energy to the people who matter most—our grandchildren. We dream of playing games in the park, sharing stories of the past, and simply enjoying each other’s company without the constant worry of financial strain.

I understand that this is a significant ask, and I do not take it lightly. In fact, I want to assure you that this is not a donation without purpose or plan. I am fully committed to paying back the entire $45,000 within one month of receiving the funds. This is my promise to you—a promise to not only lift the debt that keeps us tethered to hardship but also to honor your trust and generosity by returning every penny in a very short time frame or if you so desire, Pay it Forward to someone else in need of funds.

Your support at this critical juncture will enable us to finally reclaim our lives and embrace the beauty of our golden years. It will allow us to live with dignity, enjoy precious moments with our grandchildren, and create memories that will last a lifetime. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for considering our request and for being a part of our journey toward a brighter, debt-free future.

With sincere gratitude,

Please provide me an email address or a phone number so that I can return the donation(s) as promised.

I am reaching out to request financial support for a project that will greatly enhance the safety, privacy, and overall security of my home. I am seeking $10,000 to build a high-quality fence around my property, which will not only provide a clear boundary but also offer peace of mind for my family and I. With the growing concerns about safety in the neighborhood, this fence will act as an essential deterrent, ensuring that our home remains a secure and private sanctuary.

The fence will be built using durable materials to ensure it stands the test of time, while also complementing the aesthetic of the home and surrounding area. I have obtained estimates from reputable contractors, and the $10,000 requested will cover the entire cost of materials, labor, and installation. This investment will also add value to the property, contributing to its long-term preservation and security.

Your support would mean the world to us and would directly contribute to improving the safety and comfort of our home. If you are willing to contribute to this effort, I would be more than happy to provide any additional information or discuss the project further. Thank you for considering my request, and I truly appreciate your generosity and support.

Hello,

I’ve recently lost my mother and due to my loss, I’m struggling mentally and financially.  I’m asking for assistance with costs associated with my mother’s celebration of life, which includes flowers, food and paying the church staff for their services.

Secondly, I recently found out that something decided to make holes in the suit pants that I was going to wear to the memorial service.  Due to this, I don’t have a complete suit to wear to the memorial service or celebration of life.  At this time, I’m not able to afford a new suit or rent one, so I’m asking for assistance with this as well.

Third, I’m asking for assistance with utilities, HOA fees, groceries and other items that I desperately need for my place which I can’t afford right now.  The other items that I’m referring to are knives, dinnerware, and a vacuum.

Lastly, I’m asking for assistance with a new desk, television, bedroom furniture, lamps and dining furniture.

Any amount that you can give is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Tim K.

I’m 65, disabled, and homebound (14 yrs). Being a shut-in wreaks havoc on my mental health. Four years ago, I was evicted from my home of 20 years. To keep me off the streets my family took me in. I never know how long I can sit, stand, walk, or bend before pain takes over. I lay down most of the day to relieve pain. I was stuck in between four walls. My solution to being a shut-in is simple, join a community of vanlife nomads. Vanlife solves many issues but mostly I can go anywhere if my bed is with me. Getting help will not only keep me off the streets it’ll completely change the quality of my life. I sold everything and saved. I purchased a van and found an affordable builder (⅓ less than others). He installed the floor, insulation, and covered the ugly roof in fabric. I was gifted a solar system, bed platform, seat with table, and reflectix for the windows. I was also gifted a barely-used Tempur-pedic mattress. To finish my van I need $4000.

I am now living in my van and would like this to be my home for at least 10/15 years. Please help  finish making my van into a comfortable home, for both my physical comfort and more importantly, for my mental well-being. I am hoping for enough funds to pay for the following: cover the walls in an easy to clean vinyl and to have cabinets built for organization. My van build is more than halfway there, but it is taking me five years to get this far. To finish my van without help would take another 4+ years; at that time, I will be 69+ years old.  BTW, Currently I am saving to have an emergency travel fund of  $3500.

Hello,

I’m a 43-year-old guy currently living in California. I recently have been evicted from my apartment in San Francisco for falling behind on rent. I fell behind on payments after being let go from a well-paying job. I was let go for not wanting to take the required Covid shots. After some time, I was able to find another job but it was one that paid significantly less which is how I fell behind on rent and bills. I did the best I could to keep the place. I applied to city and state programs to help with rent but was denied by all. They wouldn’t even approve me for SNAP benefits.

After being evicted I had to leave San Francisco to live with some family in central California. I had to leave the job also. The commute is too far and I don’t have a car. Where I am now, there is no work and my savings are drying up. The unemployment benefits ran out months ago. My family is helping me out a lot with giving me a place to stay but they aren’t rich people and I feel I’ve taken up enough of their space and time.

I’m trying to gather $10,000 to pay off my current debts and move out to Texas where I will have a better chance of finding work. The $10,000 will cover the remaining back rent I still have to pay; the taxes I owe; the moving cost of shipping my stuff from California to Texas and enough left over to survive in Texas until I can find steady work. I plan on staying at an Budget Suites for about two months while keeping my stuff in storage. The Budget Suites has rooms set up for extended-stay that they market to transplants like me. I can probably get a decent used scooter to get around and do app gigs as well. Texas is definitely cheaper living than California. I should be able to get myself settled in no time.

Anything you can give will be greatly appreciated. 2024 has been a crazy and anxiety-filled year so far. I’m doing the best I can to stay positive and am truly grateful for what I have already. I just need some help getting to the next stage in life. This will help a lot.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and hearing my story.

My name is Grady Morris,

It is with a heavy heart that I write this letter to you – coupled with a desperate request for your help during what has been a really trying time.

I’m a 100% disabled service-connected retired veteran and my wife and I are being forced to consider bankruptcy at this time. We’re waiting on a Social Security disability decision, which we filed back in Oct. and Nov. of 2023 not expecting that it would take up to a year for a decision. We cannot survive this waiting period.

Trying to get some footing, I have been setting up an online appeal business but the costs of advertising and subscriptions to web hosting services and other fee-based services that are required to even take on this endeavor, have been such that it looks as if we can never get anywhere in this venture, at least not in the near future.

Additionally, we’ve been selling our personal possessions as well just to try to make it through to the end of the month, when I receive my pay from my pension and VA disability which all goes to RV and Vehicle bills and utilities, leaving around 250-500 dollars a month as to buy food and other necessities such as medical bills, medical co-pays, phones, internet service and some streaming services just to numb the pain.

To add to this financial strain, the prices of the basic amenities have gone up by approximately 40% in just the past few months. Suddenly, it has become almost impossible for us to manage our expenditure. We are now faced with debts on the credit cards, and the high rates of interest are adding to our problems.

Also, with fuel prices soaring to astronomical levels, it’s become increasingly difficult since we started living in are RV full-time (that’s right, we are house less, and our RV is our home and our mode of transportation is a Jeep), and the nightly charges at RV parks (which are skyrocketing to second-mortgage price levels) have made that even more difficult.

Now we are in a situation where we need support to get back on our feet and out of debt. Any help you can give us will be much appreciated and help us to rebuild our financial stability and independence.

Thank you for considering our situation. Please accept our gratitude in this time of great need. Please let me know if you need more information to support our request. You may reach out to me at 619-352-9078 or gemorris139078@outlook.com and this is my paypal.me link: https://paypal.me/gradyemorris?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US

I’m reaching out for help, in securing funding to buy a camper for $36,000. The current housing market is making it nearly impossible to find housing. I’m hoping for support from generous donors like you. Let me explain why this request is so important and how your assistance could truly make a difference.

To give you some background my financial situation has been challenging, which has limited my options for securing housing or loans through traditional channels. To overcome this hurdle I’ve taken on side jobs. Currently, I work as a delivery driver for different food delivery services. While these gigs provide me with income the costs of gas and vehicle maintenance have become increasingly burdensome. Despite these challenges, I’m dedicated to improving my circumstances. I’m actively participating in a program that enhances my skills and qualifications which will hopefully lead to better employment opportunities soon.

Acquiring the camper would be a solution to the housing crisis I’m facing. It’s a much-needed option that can provide me with the shelter I desperately need.
It’s a standard model, from 2021 that provides all the features like a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen. Although it’s not luxurious this camper would offer me an affordable living space. It would give my family and me the stability and security we need in these times.

However, there are some obstacles on the road to obtaining this living arrangement. The camper currently has a loan on it that was co-signed by a family member because I have limited access to credit. Unfortunately, this loan carries a high-interest rate, which adds to the challenges of maintaining our financial stability. On a positive note, the cost of renting the camper site is quite reasonable compared to options out there making it a sustainable housing choice for us in the long run.

In essence, the purpose of requesting this grant is to obtain funds that will allow us to pay off the camper loan and ensure a stable and secure housing solution that fulfills our needs. Your support in this would directly contribute to easing the burden of housing and enable me to focus on addressing other essential needs, for my family and continue in my course study. We would genuinely appreciate your generosity and willingness to assist during these times—it would truly make a difference in our lives.

Thank you for taking the time to read this!
