Financial Hardship Help

Need Help Getting out of A Financial Hole PLEASE

I am 25 years old, I have a job and work hard but i have falling so far behind from helping others that I myself am having to turn to ask for help. I am about to loose my vehicle that is barely even running and cant afford to have it inspected or tuned up, i have a major toll tag bill that someone else racked up and are ungrateful and wont even help pay it off so i cant get my vehicle legally let alone fixed, my home needs some major repairs that i have not been able to even begin to try and fix due to lack of funds. I am having to pay back pawn tickets but I am only able to pay the minimum to extend them so i dont loose my stuff. I have fallin behind on my house payment by 2400.00. I in general over all have literally lost track of my own expenses from trying to help other people out. Now i am just trying to get out of the hole so i can be happy again and not stres so much. I have no kids and am to young to stress about money like i do i understand its my own fault for help selfish people out i know if i just can get caught up i will be able to stay focused and actually save money like i should be able to.

I have asked help from family and fiends but nobody can help… Im begging for help please

Lonely Girl looking for money

Hi,

my Name is Sara and I’m 19 and from Germany. Do you know why I’m different to others? Because I want to be a writer and I can explain you my story, in a kind of short story.

Everything started on the 15th of June 1998 at 2:21. I took my first breath. No idea how the world could be. No idea where I want to go. No idea what it’s going to be alive. My parents very lovely people never had the chance to give me much, but all they gave me was a wonderful childhood with amazing experiences and a lovely brother. And that was alright. I always was okay with that.
I never tried to be different, but I was. I thought different about so many things, which made a lot of things very complicated for me. But even that was alright, because I learned how to deal with it. And I like to be different.
Have you ever had the feeling that you didn’t fit in the society? Like everyone is the same, no not the same but very similar and you don’t belong to them ?
Not that I was bullied or something, what I absolutely hate, but just that I always thought there is something more…
So I decided when I was 13 years old to go Australia after I graduated. I had 3 Jobs: Coffeeshop allrounder, waitress and bartender. Had to deal with so many idiots and had also a lot of good experiences, which turned me into the person I am right now.

And I love my dream. I’m in Australia, I do what I always wanted to do. I can breathe the clear air, see the amazing nature and meet incredible people. I’ve never been so happy in my life. It’s like the first time that I feel alive. At the place to be.

And I still want to continue my dream, I don’t wanna stop. And I did so many Jobs here and tried and worked hard, but now I can’t find anything good. I never wanted to do prostitution or drug dealer.

I now it’s a long text, but if support what I’m doing, just go for it! And look at the picture. A picture can’t show, what I saw with my own eyes.

so much love,
Sara

Bagpacker in need

Hello,

my name is Jana and I’m from Germany. After I graduated from high school I flew to Australia since seeing the country was always one of my biggest dreams. But every since I’ve been here, I haven’t had much luck.. I had a car accident and had to pay a lot since my insurance didn’t want to cover it. I tried to find work and even worked on a cucumber farm, but I’ve always had some back problems which the constant bending over only worsened. So unfortunately I had to quit after a couple a days and been searching for a job ever since. Now my situation even got that bad that I am only able to pay for accommodation for this month. If I don’t find a job until then I’m basically living on the street. I would also consider flying back home even though this would break my heart since I fell in love with Australia, but I don’t even have enough money for a flight to Germany. I’m not really used to asking for money and never was a fan of that, but right now I don’t know what else to do.

If you wanna help me, I will be so grateful for that!

Thank you so much!

Love,

Jana

Stuck in Thailand and Terrified

3 months ago, I left the US after quitting my job and selling my belongings. After a bad and abusive marriage had ended, and after the death of one of my closest friends, I experienced years of depression and felt simply empty. I worked very hard towards saving for this trip, and have done it the smart way – staying in places for free in exchange for work/budget flights/cheap hostels – and have found personal development and happiness that I’ve spent years without.

I recently got to Thailand, and here is where things fell apart. I have a $1200 check from John Hancock that was supposed to be deposited into my account 4 weeks ago that I still have not received (am currently in an extended back-and-forth with them via email working to resolve this).

Then my wallet was stolen, with all of my remaining cash (equivalent to ~$1500 USD).

I am desperate – I need money and I need it quickly, and my family is unable to help me. Even with the theft, if John Hancock fulfills their side, I could still make it back to New Zealand where I plan on working until the end of my working holiday visa (so I can save up more money again), but I’m stranded am panicked without that funding, and have no backup.

Please please help. My visa in Thailand expires in 23 days, so even a little bit would help as I can live here cheaply while I figure things out. I’m desperate.

 

Money for travel

To whom it may concern:
I’ve recently been going through a career change but I haven’t decided which industry I would prefer to pursue.
As a means to reclaim a sense of identity and to experience life as much as I can, I’ve decided to start writing a blog. On this blog, I write short stories, essays, and I’m planning on transitioning it into a travel blog while I’m backpacking Europe. The website is writingforjamesmills.wordpress.com.
Though it’s a fairly new blog, the traffic has been relatively decent- as it’s been exponentially increasing each week: I’m now at 500 views on both the website and the Facebook account per post. Given the fact that this trajectory is pretty strong, and given the fact that travel blogs themselves do fantastic; I am expecting a strong increase in views.
This increase in views will also come from the fact that I’ll be getting shout outs from other blogs so that I can attract some of their viewers to my own.
With that, I was wondering if you guys sponsor travel blogs or small business startups? If you do, how do I go about writing a grant or filling out a sponsorship form?
If sponsoring my blog doesn’t attract you, I am very articulate and charismatic- so I can help by offering myself as a PR ambassador- proving you and your company are out for the little guy, sponsoring life experiences and personal/professional development which can help look corporate responsible: speaking at events, video posts, and things of the like.
I’m planning on backpacking Europe in March of 2018- I already have most of the materials I need including camping supplies and food; what I still need is plane tickets, train tickets, and enough to cover my website maintenance for the month I’m gone. Plane tickets are going to cost around $800, train tickets will cost $500 for the month, and the website maintenance will be around $200. So in total, I need around $1500. Any and all help is appreciated and like I said, I’m willing to be a spokesperson at events for you and I’m willing to put an ad on my blog for you.

Thank you and I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks and have a good day,

Struggling to make ends meet

I’m a 28 year old female who is currently unemployed, and living with depression, anxiety and PTSD. I was diagnosed about 6-7 years ago after an attempted suicide. I haven’t been able to get much help in all aspects, mainly because my mental illness keeps me at home 24/7.

My struggles started at a young age, around my toddler years was when I was getting verbally and physically abused. But the abuse didn’t stop there, as the years went by, I was also emotionally, mentally and sexually abused. I was tossed from one family member to the next, constantly moving until my pre-teens. When I finally found some sort of stability it only lasted about 6 years and the family members who took me in passed away.

Once again my life was in a whirlwind, constantly moving from one place to the next. I would stay with family members and the occasional friend that came into my life for a while.

Currently, I’m living with a friend who is charging me $600 rent, and half of all bills and grocery money, which is usually between $400-$1000.

I have had jobs in the past, but could only hold them for 2-3 months before getting fired because of my mental illness. For the past year, I have not left the house and instead fuel any and all funds into getting my life delivered straight to my door. I have lived with agoraphobia for a long time, I struggled to leave my house everyday before I stopped leaving all together.

The person I am living with is questioning my ability to keep up with payments…If you can help me regain some sort of stability with financial means, I would be eternally grateful.

Roof Replacement

 

Hello, I live in London, England with my two beautiful young children. Two months ago, I noticed that a lot of rainwater was leaking from our ceiling. This water was making its way down from the roof. The rainwater was seeping through cracks in our rood tiles and our roof is very old but I don’t know how old it is since this is a rent house.  Our landlord has refused to pay for the replacement of the roof since he is very stubborn but we have come up with a solution. We have thoroughly discussed on a solution that I would pay all the money that it would cost to replace the roof. I understand that it is not right for me as a tenant to pay for a replacement of the roof. However, this is the cheapest rent house in the market in the area and it is heavily under-priced and I know we wouldn’t be able to afford any of the houses in this area. My children love this area and go to school in this area and I know they would be devastated if we moved. I’m afraid that if I take my landlord to court then he may evict me so I’m looking to replace this worn-out roof.

The water has condensed in the form of damp due to excess moisture in the ceiling. This damp and mould is unhealthy for my children and I don’t want them to be raised in such a situation. A couple of weeks ago, both my children awoke and they couldn’t breathe properly so I took them to the local hospital. The doctor has diagnosed them both with asthma and I believe that the damp is the sole reason why my children have been diagnosed with this chronic disease. Asthma is a chronic disease; this means that it can never be treated but it can be controlled. The environment that we live in will just worse their asthma. My children now have difficulty running and doing everyday sports in school. They should not be deprived of a fun childhood because of a greedy landlord. The mould and damp has many health complications such as respiratory infections and allergies. Did you know that mould and damp is the reason why 7 million people die each year around the world? Mould and damp affect the body by producing allergens, irritants and even toxic substances.

Therefore, I would like to ask the online community for donations to help my cause. I would like a total donation of about GBP £4500 which is about USD $5750 to replace the roof. My paypal link is PayPal.Me/donateroof

Back from the brink.

Hi,

My name is Nikki. Three and a half years ago I was admitted to hospital as an emergency. I cannot remember much about it to be totally honest but was diagnosed with necrotising fasciitis  (flesh eating bug) and sepsis. I spent two weeks in a coma during which time I underwent two separate surgeries to save my life. Despite the surgery I was given a 2 – 3% chance of survival and consultants advised my family that I would have no quality of life and it would be ‘kinder’ to switch off my life support. Having been advised to do this by healthcare professionals, my family considered it; thankfully they decided to proceed with further surgery even though they were told it was extremely unlikely that I would survive (where there’s life, there’s hope). I survived. The following 9 months of recovery were tough – extremely tough, and challenging. I was determined to get back to work, even though it seemed unlikely. I did get back to work though! Part of the surgery I had was to create a stoma – a colostomy, which means I wear a bag on my tummy as I have very little bowel left but am able to have a colostomy reversal and two major hernia repairs (which have appeared due to the surgery to create the stoma); I have been on the waiting list for this operation now for 3 years. The experience of almost losing my life has had a profound effect on me – a positive one! Before I was taken ill I had suffered with anxiety and depression (most of my adult life), this whole experience has altered my view on life and I feel I have been given a second chance. I truly have a newfound passion for life even though long-term Prognosis for NF survivors isn’t entirely favourable. I have given up waiting for surgery, so have decided to waste no more valuable time doing so. I am 48 now and have decided it is time to give up work in the NHS (of which I’ve given 24 years of my life). I struggle with concentration and memory as a result of my illness; traits which are essential in my line of work. After giving up my job, it is my desire to travel for as long as is possible to see some of the world, meet new people and volunteer to good causes as I do so. I will be doing this on a very tight budget as I will have just a small retirement pension. I will be travelling by car and possibly train. It is a daunting yet exciting plan and I intend to give as much back to society as I proceed. So my purpose of this post is to try to raise some funds to allow me to keep going for as long as is possible and realise this ambition. It is my honest intention to volunteer to worthy causes as I proceed with this plan. I would never have thought of asking for donations at any time in my life but after everything that has happened, I guess I’m now of the opinion – everything is worth a chance – anything is possible. So if you feel you would be happy to help me fulfill this next stage in my journey, I would be extremely thankful for donations of any kind. My heartfelt thanks for taking the time to read this.

Desperately need a break

Hi, my name is Chris. I’ve never travelled anywhere. I desperately want to go to Hawaii for a week as I really need the break.  I got myself into some credit card debt, along with debt consolidation loan and have been working 6 and 7 days per week to try to catch up but it hasn’t been working out so far. And, yes, I’ve cut up all my credit cards. I’ve learned my lesson the hard way. I only wish I’d taken it to heart when being taught about credit in high school.  I’m a taxi driver and our market has been flooded by Uber so my income has dropped 35-40% over the last year. I am treading water and burning out in a hurry. A vacation would be a much needed break and I feel is well deserved.

I grew up in small-town Oregon and am used to nice people constantly surrounding me. Now I live in a big city and these people are few and far between. I still go out of my way to hold doors open for people and say hi. Hopefully it spreads. It doesn’t take that much effort to be kind. I know there are many of us out there in the world but I have to say they’re much easier to find in small towns. Other than spending way too much time partying my freshman year in college, I feel like I’ve always done the right thing, including helping my brother several times when he was in financial crisis. Unfortunately, he’ll never be in a position to help me so that’s why I’m here, hoping someone out in cyberspace will help me take this trip. I think $2,000 would probably give me enough to have a great time and recharge my batteries.

If someone out there is better off than me and can help me, I’d be greatly appreciative. I’d also love to send you follow up story along with pictures from my trip. If/when my financial situation changes, I’d even love to return the favor or simply pay you back. Thank you very much for reading this and thank you in advance if you help me.

I love the idea of a website like this to connect those that have money with those who need it. I hope to be on the donating side of this in the future.

 

P.S. I’m the guy on the left in the picture

MONEY FOR TRAVEL

Hi there! You know, everyone has a dream. A dream, that might be a little bit unrealistic. Like to get into Hogwarts, to meet with a fictional characters and so on. When I was ten, I also dreamed for these things to come true. As I grew older I understood, that there are more serious problems that i have to face. Like getting into college. Getting money to pay for everything. Later on, as my mom lost her job, supporting my family. The years have gone by and I have lost my track. I have lost my thoughts and myself. I did not know what I want. I did not know what are my goals in life. I started to think deeply about it. I understood that I’ve never been abroad.. The thought of flying on a plane, the thoughts of undiscovered land made my body shiver. You know, some people dream about lying on a beach all day in Bora Bora. I dream of wandering through the dirty streets of Paris. Or getting lost in music in Ibiza. Or just walking through all of the art galleries in Rome. I live in Europe, still I don’t have the ability to travel to such places. I will do anything for my family, yet, I have a dream, that one day I will travel to wherever i want to. And you could help me. As much as I was sarching for travels the prices go from 1500 up to 2000 euros. That would be approximately from 1600 to 2200 USD dollars. To some people that might seem as a little amount of money, but that’s a lot of money for me. And i would be grateful if you could donate that to me. You know, you would help a person to see things in life, that he could grab on and hold on to it. no matter how hard life could get.

Fundraising My World Travel/Volunteer Trip

My name is Jenn and for the past few years, I’ve had an urge to follow my dreams that only gets stronger each day. I’ve always worked hard for what was “expected” of me—I always did quite well in school and received both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s in a field I’ve been working in since I was 19. Throughout college and grad school, I often worked full-time in addition to maxing out my credits, because I liked being busy and felt I needed the work experience for a successful life. But lately, working a 9 to 5 has left me wanting more. Even though I enjoy the work I do, I find myself sitting in my cubicle daydreaming about being anywhere else. Day after day, 40 hours a week.

What I daydream about is traveling full-time. Since I was 19, I’ve worked harder than most of my peers (at my day job in addition to school, freelancing, babysitting and a social life) and all of this work made it possible for me to save up for my travels. I’ve paid my way through 6 continents and 25 countries in the last 5-6 years. I’m aware that makes me luckier than most, but it’s not for lack of long hours and hard work. But I find myself being addicted to travel Instagram accounts, watching hours and hours of YouTubers (like yourself) documenting what makes them happy, and researching future travels. So now, at 25, my next adventure is to do a round-the-world trip. I’m not 100% where I’ll end up (but I have a long list of places I dream of everyday) or how long this adventure will last, but I’ve decided that it’s time to stop living the dream everyone tells me is correct. I plan to document my trip with regular blogs or videos (or both).

I might be young, but my travels up until this point have educated me to what else is out there in the world, and that’s where I want to be. I want to teach English, aide in the rescue and protection of animals, help set up schools, help build homes, deliver clean drinking water and supplies—I want to make the world a better place with any small contribution I can manage. But this will not come cheap and I’m already pinching my pennies wherever possible. Any donations would go to travel (flights/trains/etc.), accomodations, food, and spending money. I’m not quite sure when the trip will be, as it depends on how quickly I can fund it. (The sooner the better!) If there’s any chance you’d be willing to contribute $5, $10, or even $20 to helping someone achieve their dreams, I’d be so grateful. If not, thanks for taking the time to ready my story and have a great day!

Help me send my sister and niece to DISNEYLAND

Hi my name is Kate. My sister is 25 and she has a little girl aged 7 and in 2009 my sister was involved in a horrendous car accident. On her way to college,  her car aquaplaned off the road and hit a wall. The ambulance crew scraped her off the road and brought her to A&E. My sister broke the c2 bone in her neck and was in a coma for a few weeks. Luckily she did wake up but went through gruelling physiotherapy to relearn how to walk, talk and do basically everything again.

 

The irony is, she was on her way to college to give a presentation on Road Safety. Her daughter was only 19 months at the time and on the day of the accident she was supposed to be travelling in the car so my sister would drop her to the creche. The poor police officers were looking for a baby in the ditches when they came on the scene as they saw a buggy and car seat in the car. Luckily my mother that day had the day off work and said she would look after my niece instead of her going to the creche.

My sister was doing a nursing degree and she had to take a year off to recover. The following year she went back to college to finish her course. She graduated with her degree and now is studying a Masters in Occupational Therapy. The accident has left her with a head injury in that she gets tired very easily, she needs help alot to look after my niece. She had to move back into the family home so my family could babysit and because she cant afford to move into somewhere by herself. At the moment she only gets very little money to live on and all extra money goes towards college fees and books and I would love to treat them  to a trip to Disneyland as my niece loves Mickey and Minnie mouse. They haven’t been on a holiday anywhere since the accident.

I’m not asking for a lot, just if there is any generous people out there that could maybe donate or sponsor a trip or whatever amount you can donate, I would be more than grateful. We are an honest and decent hard working family that just needs a little help at the moment.

Thanks for reading

Kate

Help a young 24 year old Florist fulfill her wish to travel the World

Helll my name is Jade, I am 24 years old and live in the South of England! I am a qualified level 3 Florist, I specialise in weddings, Funerals and Celebrations! ?? I have been a florist since the young age of 15 when I left School with not the best of grades but wanted to do something different as I have creative mind and a good eye for Art! I have worked in a few different shops and made some absolutely beautiful things! Unfortunately though the wage of a Florist isn’t the best and it’s a struggle for me to pay my rent and bills let alone save enough to start my travels! And it doesn’t matter how hard I work as a Florist, even through the night at times when there are big Weddings, it doesn’t increase my pay. I do it because I love it and am passionate about nature and making people smile …. ?

I wont lie to you and say I’m Ill or have problems as I don’t. I am just looking for some help in my medical bills, insurance etc whilst i go travelling! I want to see the World, I want to show the people in foreign countries things they’ve never seen before! I want to help those that need to be helped .
