I am a 32 year old mom of two small children. My husband is everything to me and is a wonderful father and provider but he can only do so much as one person.  I am on permanent disability as of 2016 and one of our children has special needs. Before I became disabled I used to work as a nanny and a fitness trainer. My husband works almost 2 hours away because he hasn’t found work that is closer to our new home. In February we moved to NH when we bought our family’s first house. It’s a modular ranch style home in the woods. We love it. It was a stretch to go from apartment living to home-ownership but we’re making it work. It’s just that we had two vehicles that we owned and had no payments on….3 months ago one of them completely died because the engine overheated and the dashboard didn’t signal that there was any problem until it was kaput. So we had to take out a loan for a used car which gave us an extra bill. We were modest about our choice, it’s $200 a month, but for us, that’s A LOT because it’s $200 that we weren’t spending before.

He takes the “new” car to work since he needs the reliability for the all of the miles and I rely on our 2006 four-door Ford to get the boys and myself to our local appointments, sports, school events/meetings and to pick up the one with special needs from school if he can’t make it through a full day (and of course emergencies).  We don’t have family or close ties in the area as we have only been here for less than a year. The car is in need of brakes and tires in order to pass inspection and I cannot drive it.  We’re financially in a very tight spot. We tend to live with just the basics as much we can in this modern world. Cable is too expensive so we use Roku, cell phones are ridiculously priced so we use pre-paid plans and since I don’t need a smartphone for work-related needs I have an old flip phone which suits me fine. We try to minimize wherever we can and are grateful with how the Lord has blessed us. We could be a lot worse off. We have been getting hit with some unexpected curve-balls financially though and could use an extra blessing if it’s in God’s will. It would be so helpful to know me and the boys can leave the house if needed while my husband is working so far away.

Anyway, if you are in a position to offer help, our family would greatly appreciate it. We will tithe 10% of any donation we receive.  God Bless you. If you don’t feel it’s a worthy cause, no worries and God Bless you and the cause that you choose to donate to.

Hello to you reader, my name is Stephen and I’m finding myself in s pinch over a vehicle I purchased earlier this year. Go back to December 27th if 2017 I was involved in a car accident that thankfully I survived. I was driving from working third shift and hit a patch of ice and ran into another vehicle going south as I was going west. It was the only car for my wife and I. A few weeks later we found out we were expecting our first child. After almost 5 years of trying to conceive I was convinced I could not have children. And go figure the year I do get this blessing I have no vehicle. So I borrowed cars from people who didn’t work the next day (being I worked third shift) or asked for rides daily. Until I saved up $2,000 to put down on a car. I’ve always had a bad run on used vehicles not from a dealer so I thought my best chance would be from a dealership. Well the only dealership that could give me a loan with what I was putting down at my credit put me in a 2012 Volkswagen CC. So I purchased it at a ridiculous apr ar 24%. $11,000 for a 7,000$ car. But I felt I was unfortunately at no other choice. So I purchased it. Well the vehicle was a front car and during a plowing of the road a rock impacted the windshield and cracked it. The dealer needed to fix it before selling it and took days to get the windshield fitted. When I got the vehicle I drove it to the gas station to fill up and when I did the car did not start up after filling. I got it started after 10 minutes and took it to the dealer. They then said there were no issues with the car it was fine. Well the car that didn’t just start on me says otherwise. They refused any help because they weren’t a “Volkswagen authorized dealer”. Well I drove the car out of the dealer fine and next I went to get gas a week later it happened again. It turned out there was a recall for the fuel pump on the car that had been pending for a little over a year that had “no solution”. So every time I got gas I’d have to jump start the car. Well finally it crap out on me and I had to have it towed 40 miles to the nearest Volkswagen dealer. They replaced the “faulty” fuel pump with a new one but with the same part that faulted out. So it drove until the actual recall came out months later. Well then my car started telling me there was no engine oil pressure. I had changed everything that it could possibly be except the oil pump and the whole motor. So I was told it was the oil pump. So I save up 1,000$ to fix the oil pump and no solution. I’ve had it to shop after shop and they all say the same thing. The motor is shot. All while I’m paying 450$ a month for the car that I had to have to help keep me employed. So all the money I can save up for a second vehicle goes toward my payment for a car I can’t drive. I’m just hoping someone out there that can relate feeling stuck like this and is willing to help. I just want to pay the turd off and get rid of it.

Thank you for taking your time to read. And thank you for any donations.

I’m currently a sophomore at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. I grew up in Texas and I played a lot of sports so I never worked a real job. I recently just worked this past summer at Academy Sports + Outdoors and I’ve been saving up for a vehicle. I have 2000 dollars in my savings account right now. The vehicle I’m trying to buy cost $13,966. It’s a 2007 Jeep Wrangler X in an Army green color. I’ve always wanted a jeep. My parents would like to help me but they can’t because they also have to help my other sisters not to mention pay their own bills. My parents have never made much but they always made sure I was good. I really want this jeep and I’m all out of options. I’m about to start working again but I need this vehicle first to get to and from work. If you’re reading this I could really use some help. My credit isn’t great so I’d like to put down a big down payment so I’m asking for 8,000 dollars to use as a down payment. I already pay my own phone and credit card bill so most of the money I have saved up goes to those bills and grocery shopping. This would really help me out a lot. I can’t qualify for any auto loans or personal loans because of my credit score. It’s low because I don’t have anything in my name. This is the exact reason why I just got a credit card. Once I obtain this vehicle, I can continue working on building my score and I’ll have a job. I currently can’t complete work study because of a financial hold that I have on my account which I also need to pay for on my own. Like I stated before, I don’t know who else to turn to because it’s kind of impossible to ask family for $8,000. Everybody has their own family and bills to worry about which is why I’m here on this site. I’ve been trying to do all of this on my own because that’s the only way it’s going to happen. This post is literally my last resort. So please anyone who reads this, thanks for reading and thanks for helping if you can.  Paypal Me link: paypal.me/desschu

Hello Ladies and gentlemen,

My name is Veronica. I hit a deer on my way home driving down Pacific Coast Highway. When I suddenly saw the deer crossing the street I maneuvered to the right to avoid hitting it. I couldn’t hit the brakes because I had a line of cars behind me. I hit the deer with the front left side of my car. I panicked and screamed in horror thinking I have killed it. My ten-year-old daughter got so scared and sad for the deer too. This has never happened to me. The front bumper and the plastic trim broke. I think it’ll cost to get fixed around $500. I need to buy the bumper myself, have it paint matched, by the plastic trim, and pay for installation. If I let the body shop do everything it will cost me more money. I just can’t do this anymore. This past April my car got vandalized and I had to pay $1,000 deductible out of my pocket. A month later I suffered an ectopic pregnancy and fallopian tube removal to which my insurance didn’t cover everything and I’m already making payments to pay that off. This is the first time I asked other people and strangers to help me. I work hard for my stuff and to provide for daughter who also needs my time. I feel like I have bad luck I can’t help but think what’s next. I appreciate your help and I thank you in advance. God bless your hearts.

Thank you for taking the time to read my request. I never thought I’d be on the internet begging strangers for money, but here I am.

First, a little about me. I’m 25 years old and am in my 3rd year of teaching elementary school. I’m enrolled in grad school so that I can further my career in education. A year and a half ago I had absolutely no debt. I worked full time through undergrad and didn’t take out any loans.

Fast forward 3 years from graduation and I’m now swimming in debt. Mostly because my roommate bailed on the lease and I’m having to pay double the amount I planned for, and also because I made some stupid impulse purchases and travel plans.

The debt itself is not the issue, as I can buckle down and find a new apartment in order to pay that debt off in 2 years or so. The issue is that my 10 year old car is very quickly reaching the end of its life and I can’t afford to replace it AND pay off my debt.

So, I’m on here to ask for help. I’m looking to save up around 5-6k for a decent down payment on a used car. That way I won’t have to take out such a huge loan with a high interest rate.

I am REALLY trying to get back on track because I know racking up debt was stupid and I’m learning the hard way that it doesn’t just affect your credit score, it makes a lot of other things difficult as well.

If you made it this far, thank you. Any donations helps, even if it’s just prayers.

Hi my name is Josef and I recently got my car repossessed and have been trying to get it back for a while. I feel like they’re close to just auctioning it off so I’m in a bit of an insurmountable position.  My car is important to my personal life as well as my job due to minor traveling being apart of my position. I’m looking for 20k to cover everything, that’s about 15k to pay off the car and then the extra for impound fees. Any amount will help whether it be the full from one person or multiple doners. I thank you and hope can help. https://www.paypal.me/jamaaljosef

On August 12, 2018, While me and my Fiance were travelling home one night, a van came into our lane and swerved us off the road . We are blessed to be okay. The car I wrecked was a 2000 Lexus GS 400. It was totaled because the damage was more than the car was worth. When I bought the car at 16,( I am now 18, 2 yrs later) I purchased the car from my Boss for 500$. He was only selling it to me at that price  because he was aware of my situation with 2 alcoholic parents, and he knew i needed a way of transportation because I wanted to move out. However, because i was 16 when i purchased it, the car was put in my Mother’s name. When my car was totaled at an estimated 3,238$ , since the car was in her name, the check was also in her name. She is addicted to drugs,  and she refuses to let me see any of that money to provide me and my Fiance a car. She is aware that my car was the only mean of transportation to and from work for my fiance. 3,000 dollars isn’t much to by a car with anyways, but it definitely would help me pick one to finance on.  I just have really been put in a bind since this accident, especially since my Fiance has had a tough time working his construction job because of some back injuries as a result. We just dont have the money to get a car, not even an old one.

Hello, my name is Brandon & recently I feel on hard times & lost my job about 4 1/5 months ago, as the company I worked for decided to have layoffs. Unfourtantly my reconciliation department was affected by this & along with a few of my peers we were let go after 5 years of service to the company. Over the past few months, I have been chasing leads & things look on the up & up as I recently was hired by UHG. Having faith in god & trusting his process has helped me & my wife maintain, & stay afloat these last couple months. I start my new job this month on the 17th (super excited) to get back in the workforce. I’m here as a last resort to help me keep my car until I am fully able to catch up. I’m unsure of this website legitimacy, but I feel like God lead me this way in my most desperate moment for a reason. So i will continue to have faith. I know its a long shot but hey hopefully its worth it. My Beautiful wife (of 3 years, 8 years together) & I share a dodge challenger, as a door greeter at Walmart my wife salary cant cover the note & pay rent. so, of course, we decided to pay the rent. but losing my car would be a major setback when all I’m trying to do is to get ahead for my growing family. Growing up I was taught you work hard & never complain cause life isn’t fair if you got lemons to make lemonade. I believe in working for everything you get.

In Ephesians 4:48 it says “Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need” I’d rather lose it all then to embarrass, my wife, mother, father or my son by doing anything illegal so I really hope someone out there can help me reach my goal 622 to pay my car note & hopefully once I start this new job on the 17th, things will start looking up for Me & Little Family. I have high aspirations in life, just an unlucky guy who fell on hard times. From my mouth to God’s ears, I really Hope this is worth it.

with love Brandon

I am sure you hear all kinds of pleas but please hear me out.

Life is not fair and I understand that but starting 10 years ago when I was the victim of domestic violence my life has spiraled to below the bottom of the barrel. At the time it happened my now ex-husband and I were living in a house owned by his mother. After it happened she asked me to move out because the only other option was him at her house. Being too low on self esteem and high in respect I did so, and having no means of support bad choices involving manipulative unsavory people kept me going down.

I live in a friend’s storage on his property. I struggled for a couple years just to afford a laptop to make some money on line. I am fortunate to receive $250 a month in back child support and I do not get any government aid or food stamps. I have no vehicle, no way to get back and forth to a job and there is no public transportation here. I live several miles from town in a rural community.

I am extremely motivated. I am 52 and alone except for my friend and his girlfriend who are kind enough to let me stay here free but that is the most they can do. My ex paying the back child support is 20 years my senior so any month that income could abruptly end without warning so I need to do something ASAP.

Someone gave me a car that has been sitting  for a few years after it was in an accident. Someone did the body work to it to make it functional again. What I need is about $1000 to replace the fluids (gas, oil, brake, transmission, etc), the belts and tires (which have dry rotted the years it sat) to get a battery and get the car registered and insured. Hopefully that would also leave some gas money so I can find a job and be able to get back and forth to work.

Living in this storage has helped me work out my issues stemming from years of abuse and neglect as a child. I learned that I don’t deserve to be abused and should not put up with it. I want the next relationship I am in to be out of want and not need. This time here has been good for me in many ways but I am ready to move on.

Please help me to help myself.

Hello,

Please read.

I am in dire need of help. My car needs $2600 worth of repair and I cannot afford it at all. I’m still paying on this car and can’t even afford the note this month. The past 5 months have been the worse of my life and if it wasn’t for my kids I’m not sure what I would do. They are definitely what’s keeping me here. I now realize that I am seriously suffering from depression and no matter how hard I pray or try to move forward something always happens. I was previously living in NC, working and paying my bills until my daughter ran away (ran away with a “bad boy”). My daughter is 16 (turning 17 Friday) and my second child is 8. My daughter would help with my younger child after school until I got off of work. Well when my daughter ran away not only was I dealing with trying to locate her but I had no one to help with my son. I was having to leave work early and take days off. My job was understanding at first. The first time my daughter was gone for 8 days and found by police with the boy. I thought everything was fine and 4 days later she ran away again, this time for a month. Again she was found by police with the boy. In May because I missed so many days of work going to the police station and juvenile court I was terminated. Realizing I needed help with my teen, I decided to move to Delaware and send my daughter with her father’s family in NJ. I drove my daughter to NJ (so she wouldn’t be able to run away again) and went back to NC to finish packing and move. I had my final paycheck and unemployment to move. I started looking for jobs before I left NC so that I can have something in place. I actually had an interview set up for the day after I got to Delaware. I had to rent a truck and tow dolly on my credit card because I couldn’t afford cash. I maxed my credit card but I had to do it. The entire time my teen was in NJ and I was in NC we were in contact and she seemed to be okay and understood why I did what I did. When I arrived in Delaware it was late and couldn’t move in my apartment until the next day. That night I received a call from my daughter’s family stating she wasn’t in the house. My daughter once again ran away from NJ. I later found out that this same “bad boy” drove to NJ and got her as I was driving to Delaware to try to start over. I was so distraught and didn’t even know where to begin.

The next day I had to drive to NJ to file a report however when I drove my car off of the tow dolly there was a loud scraping noise, the abs light was on and my back wheels were unstable. This led to me not being able to drive my car so I couldn’t get to Jersey and I still had to move in my apt. Fast forward I wasn’t sure what happened so I filed a claim with Uhaul. My vehicle has been sitting at the Nissan dealership since July 9th, 2018 with $2600 worth of damage. They are not sure what happened to my car but think it’s because it should’ve been in neutral. However, when the employee hooked my car up they told me to put it in park. I had no clue that was wrong. Fast forward I have no transportation, had to cancel my interview and haven’t been able to find work because nothing is close enough or on bus route. The insurance company for Uhaul just let me know August 2nd that my claim was denied because they are not liable. My insurance won’t cover it because it wasn’t comp or collision. Nissan is giving me to Friday to approve them to fix it or I have to move it from there lot and pay the $90 assessment fee. I don’t have anything. Nothing at all! I really need my car. If anyone can help, please help me. I can pay you back with my taxes, I know that months away but that’s the only time I’ll have any extra money. I understand there’s a lot of people going through a lot but I just thought I’d try. Any help or resources is greatly appreciated. If anything, thank you for reading!

Last week, the transmission in my car went out… While it was parked I cancelled the insurance, so I could put the money toward repairs, as they weren’t covered under my liability insurance.

A few short days later, someone skipped the curb at our apartment complex and slammed into my front end, bending the front left axle, before tearing away into the night. No cameras at our small complex, and no witnesses as it was extremely late/early.

My credit isn’t terrible (650) but I haven’t done much to build it, having struck out on my own as the recession hit and being paranoid about credit in general. Because of this, I’m unable to secure a loan. And even with a cosigner, that I can’t find, the terms are too steep for what I require and I’d be destitute before I could raise the money, being without a car.

I also work at a sod farm that doesn’t do Direct Deposit, so it disqualifies me from most online “desperation” options, which I HAVE pursued.

After consulting with body shops, the total came out to about $5400 with the transmission and collision damage. I rounded the total down, as I’d feel bad not paying at least something and $400 is no small number for me.

For $2000, I could simply buy a halfway decent vehicle and use that as I work toward repairing the other vehicle. So this is an option, as well.

I appreciate your consideration. For perspective, I came up rough and I’ve been grinding for the past 12 years to keep from spiraling back into that life. Before this, things were looking pretty great. I’m real proud of myself for that, and my biggest anxiety is my life falling to ruin over this. Uber’ing and lyft’ing to my job isn’t an option, as it would eat up half my pay to get there and back.

I have a few rescue animals that I would hate to have to relocate and genuinely nowhere to go but to a shelter should my income drop any more.

I really have exhausted all other options, and would appreciate the help. Thank you.

My kids and I want to say thank you for taking the time to read about our situation and are humble to seek this help.

My name is Sonya and I have 3 amazing kids by a marriage that did not work out.  State Laws do not give step-parents any rights for support or care of kids in a divorce.  My kids choose to stay with me most of the time.  I am a 20-year retired Navy Veteran who just can’t say no to kids or “we” can’t do something.  My son Junior is 10, sister Serenity is turning 9 and our babygirl turns 3 Aug 13.  I do not believe in spoiling kids and am a stern driver for discipline!

My request to seek help comes from getting an oil change recently and learned my 2007 suv needs a new exhaust manifold gasket, a valve stem replaced on a leaky tire, and warn fan belts replaced. I am also moving into our own place, instead of my parents basement, so the kids can have their own room and not have to when they see me.  I acquired over $10,000 in debt from the wedding/marriage and cannot seem to get ahead with my only vehicle repairs and couldn’t afford my own place at time of divorce.

I do work at a local cafe owned by my mom’s friends, however they are a month behind on paying me because they are expanding their bar.  No excuse and probably illegal I know, but it is a “they help me I help them situation.”

As a financial advisor in the military I could steer Sailors and Marines out of debt all day, but as for myself i seem to be starting to sink for the first in my life.  I only pray I am not the bad lesson my children have to learn from about living at our means and not our wants.  Regardless of the success with this website or yourself reading this, I know together we will survive.

Hello! My son just started at a community college, which is about an hour’s drive from home. He is finishing up his first summer semester and doing spectacular. Unfortunately, our car broke down this summer. It’s not a new or fancy car. It’s 12 years old, but in decent shape. However, wear and tear has worn the poor thing down. It started to overheat when idling or driving through traffic, which is even worse in crazy, hot summer weather. I wanted them to check the brakes, too, since they seemed a bit spongy at times and I wanted to make sure he would be safe driving. Unfortunately, it turns out that the old dear needs new brakes, an engine fan, and a new motor for the window (it got stuck down and then the window motor died). It will cost $755.53 to fix. I have attached a photo of the estimate.

We are a family of 6 with very low income. We have two little ones still, ages 5 and 6, and another son who is 16. My husband just finished his bachelor’s degree in December and is finishing up a few necessary classes before he heads into the medical field. We live in a very small town, with no organizations that can help us. We have a very tight budget that leaves no room for extra expenses. I pick up as many spare jobs as I can, in combination with our normal income and we still barely scrape by. I want my son to be able to focus on his education and not to worry about how he is going to get back and forth. There are enough things to worry about when we grow up and start having to do the whole adult thing, without having to stress over cars and repairs while still in school. It is difficult to find the money to help him out with gas, books, and other necessities, let alone pay for major repairs. We just fixed the brakes on our 15-year-old truck last month, so our saved funds are already depleted. One the pains of owning older vehicles, I know, but they have been good to us for many years.

If you can donate anything towards helping fix the car so he can continue with his education and not have to stress over the money, we would be super excited and eternally grateful. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate it!

Hello, I am looking for help funding a safer vehicle for my 7 year old daughter and myself. I have a 1986 Jeep Wagoneer that will be the death of us if I can’t find a new car soon. I have found a vehicle that is safer, has low miles, and is only $4,000.00.

My Jeep has no exhaust system,  large holes in the floor board, and no shoulder strap seat belts in the back seat. Recently, my daughter and I ended up with carbon monoxide poisoning after I had to drive for 2.5 hours running errands.

The lack of proper seat belts in the back seat are hindering us from being able to upgrade my daughter’s car seat to follow the laws and standards. She should be using a booster seat that uses a shoulder strap seat belt. But currently she has to continue using a 5 point harness car seat that uses a lap belt to hold it in place.

My daughter was recently ill for almost two weeks, and we had multiple ER and doctor visits. This has made us strapped for cash. We are a single income family, and raising the whole $4,000 is impossible. I’ve put my Jeep up for sale, and I’m hoping to raise at least $2,000. So all I’m asking to fund is another $2,000 so I can purchase a 1992 Chevy Silverado extended cab pick up truck with low mileage, brand new tires, and a new exhaust system.

Thank you for your consideration, and any help we are so grateful for.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I want to say first of all, this is not because I want to, but I need to ask for help with past due rent and desperately needing to get 2 cars fixed. I was brought up the old school way, where you do whatever you have to do to make it and have what you need, which is a trait that I picked up from both of my parents.

The reason is because my wife is having to take care of her sick brother who is in hospice with chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure. Because of that, as my wife has taken over as legal guardian over her brother, she has had to quit her job to take care of him, and in turn, I have had to cut back hours from my job in order to help her and with everything around the house. My wife and myself had a significant amount in savings that we had been building up, as we had built up a year of money in the savings account, but with my wife now not working, and with me having to cut back my own hours with responsibilities at home, we have been using the savings and checking accounts to pay bills with the weekly pay check bringing in little to nothing more to help. We are diligent in budgeting, but the budget has only gone so far when everything keeps piling up. Before this happened, we found ways to cut over $300 in our monthly payments, which helped add to the savings. Now, not only is my wife upset and stressed because of her brother’s health, now we have the financial situation pilling on top of that.

When my wife and I were working full time together, we were always on time paying bills before she had to take care of her brother. Now, months after depleting our savings and checking by paying bills first and getting gas and groceries for the house with only one income coming in, we have got behind on our rent and other bills. With my wife having to drive back and forth to see her brother every day to help take care of him because she is his legal guardian, her car is past due for breaks and tires, as well as a standard oil change. I use my car to drive back and forth to work everyday, and it needs tie rods, and wheel bearings, as well as new tires. The cheapest quote that we could find for having these repairs is around $1,500 for both cars. We are already one month behind on rent, which is $800 a month, with another month due soon.

If anyone on here knows all too well, once you get behind, it is difficult to catch up, especially trying to catch up on one income. I have done some side work for people when I have had the chance, like cutting grass and whatever odd and end jobs anyone needs for extra money, but it’s been really difficult in finding the time to even try and do that. Not only am I looking for help to get ourselves out of a bind, I am looking help with how to get out of the financial situation that we find ourselves in. My wife and I talked, and we want to do something together that can bring in a good amount of income. We want our money to work for us, and not have to work for money. I say that to say that my wife and I, we are not freeloaders, and we are not people that just want money for free, and we do not think we are entitled to anything. We are here just to ask for help in getting out of this pit that we found ourselves in, and the help in not letting this happen to us again, where we will be able to help others that are in need due to no fault of their own. We now understand, that life happens to everyone, and everyone needs a helping hand from time to time until they can figure out how to thrive and teach others. Do we need help right now, yes, but we don’t want to be dependent on others, we want to know how to fish so we can make our own meals, and feed others in the process. Thank you so much for your time.

Hello, my name is Heather and I’m a mother of two and the wife of a hard working man in the trucking industry. My husband, bless him, purchased me my first car that had a air conditioner and was super new to me two years ago! I had never had such a wonderful vehicle in my life, I’ve always bought drive it until its scrap cars. I really love my car and I am really grateful to have it. In September of 2017 the check engine light came on and I have not been able to put together the money to get it completely fixed or legal since, but I keep it insured. I cleaned out our meager 401k to get one part replaced and drive it back home so that my husband could get to back and forth to work.

The nearest dealership to me is a four hour drive, I live in the Midland/Odessa part of Texas and there are no shops here that will work on a Mini Cooper, even BMW said they’ll get in trouble if they scan the fob for errors. I have to take it to Arlington to get it worked on.

I’m looking to get help in one of two ways. If I can get the car paid down to 8,100$ I will no longer be upside down on the vehicle and I can refinance for a much better rate and be able to save money much more efficiently. Or if anyone would be willing to help pay for the repairs it needs outright that would be a blessing to my family. This is the only vehicle we have and is very important to our daily life. I do not like driving around illegally, but I have to do what I have to do for my family. Thank you very much for reading!

Hello! My name is Terrance Jones-Daniels, but I go by TJ. Since November of last year I’ve been out of work due to mental health issues and just trying to figure out who I am. As of October of 2017, I’ve been a trans guy, and working towards making sure that I can live my best life. Unfortunately, my mom left the area we were living in in November of 2017, and I was laid off from my job shortly afterwards, due to 4 mental health hospitalizations. I’ve been struggling with depression for a while, and have been in an out of hospitals since June of 2017. I’m currently working on getting my life back on track, but, unfortunately, it hasn’t been easy. After my mom left I lived by myself, and then with a previous significant other, and when we broke up I relocated to El Paso with my dad. He’s been pressuring me since I arrived here to get a job, and get in school, and get my own place, and I’ve been trying. Unfortunately, my phone has been shut off, my car is in danger of being repossessed, and I can’t drive my car long distances due to my rim being cracked. My dad isn’t able to take me to interviews, because he goes to school from 8-5, Monday through Friday, and he won’t let me drive his car, unfortunately. I’m just at a hard point in my life, where I feel like no matter how hard I try, nothing is truly working to benefit me, but, I refuse to give up. To have my phone turned back on, I owe $400-I’m a couple of months behind on my bill, the cost to replace the rim is $200 and my car payment is $350.Please help out if you can, and thank you.

Hi I’m Chelsea. Last year my 2007 mini cooper’s engine blew. I have spent the last year trying different avenues on getting it repaired. Nothing is leading to an answer. I have received 2 different quotes on getting it fixed. BMW wanted $13,000 and another auto place wanted $5,000. I tried talking to different technical auto schools to see if they would work with me, I had no responses. I’ve been driving my fathers 2003 Ford Focus but with my luck, it needs $1,500 in repairs and is unsafe to drive due to the tires. I’m going to school for nursing, and luckily I’ve been able to take online classes for my prerequisites. In January, I’m hoping to be accepted to a program. I will need a reliable vehicle to get me to school and work. I currently work full time in an ER as a CNA and have considered getting a second job to help with the cost of the car. Not having a car has made this very difficult to do and the hospital will not allow overtime at this time. I’m only asking for $5,000. I’m upside down on the car currently and owe more than it is worth. I have reached out to my bank about getting a loan, but with no collateral that is a no go. My paychecks cover bills and I live paycheck to paycheck like most college students. Anything will help, I’m a little desperate.

It’s 2018, im in school for something I love, I bought myself a nice used truck (2004 explorer) life couldn’t be any better. I was on cloud nine. I guess I was having too good of a time with my life because the universe hit me upside the head.

While working a seasonal job at the outlet mall early February I got a call from the mall security that a delivery driver backed into my truck and ruined my rear bumper. They couldn’t (or maybe wouldn’t) tell me who the driver was, or for what store because the mall had no cameras.

“I can fix this” I said to myself, and so I did. With white tape. 😥 I didn’t want to call my insurance amd have my rates go up. I also didn’t want to worry my parents, so tape did tje job. An ugly job, but tje bumper wasn’t going anywhere.😂

I’m a server, so my hours (can be wonky.)

It’s May! The sun is out, the flowers are blooming, people are drinking and enjoying their life, I forgot all about my car and the tape holding it up. I couldn’t be knocked sown from my cloud…or so i thought.

Come mid May, it’s Friday night and I’m at work, I close up at around 3am Saturday morning. I get home tired and realize the only parking available is on the side street, about four houses down. No big deal. I’ve parked further before.  I’m getting ready for bed, so close to laying my head down, so SO very close when I hear a crash and a screech. I got nosy and decided to investigate the sound. I stick my head out the closest window, a car speeds by blowing the stop sign in front of my house. “He probably has to poop” I think to myself as I chuckle. Out of the corner of my eye I see my car in the middle of the street!! I go and investigate, someone hit my baby and ran. 😭😭 I called the police but all they could do was take a statement. They towed my car, cost me $250.

The truck needed a new transmission, and the front axle replaced, great.

The same day, at around noon I call my insurance and explain everything. The woman on the other line informs me in a very quiet voice that the insurance wasn’t going to cover much. Maybe $200, and my rates were going to to up..What!! I’m in a pickle now. I thank her for her honesty and hang up. Now Broken hearted and without a car.

I’ve been relying on people for rides, but that never ends well. I’m going to be forced to take a semester off of school in order to pay for the damages.

If you’re reading this and you can help me, please please do. I’ll love you forever. ❤❤❤

I’m $2,000 in the gutter. 😥

I love you!

Hello my wife and I have always tired to be on our own and make it our self’s but about a month ago our 2006 Dodge Grand caravan decided to lay down on us the motor blew up her and i work at the same place at wabash we are having a hard time getting back and fourth to work she might have to quit .. but sometimes when I can’t find a ride I have to walk to work I live 11 miles from my job I can’t ask her to walk as well we have been looking at used vehicle and have found a mozida b_300 truck 2003 model extended cab would be the right fit for our family.. the down payment they want is $1800 it was 2 grand but I’ve talked him down a couple hundred bucks we have 3 children witch one is autistic and requires special care and certain therapy that we have to pay for out of pocket so it would be nearly impossible for us to save $1800 we could easily make the payment every month if we could just get the down payment. If someone would be willing to help us with this much needed down payment it would be such a blessing and also we need that truck to take our autistic son to his very much needed therapy appointments witch in the last month since our motor blew up we have had to miss a couple sessions it breaks my heart to tell my son we can’t go see his doc doc as he calls her because we don’t have a ride and then to see how sad he looks it gets to me.

As important as my job is my sons therapy sessions is more important our other two kids witch are normal they also have things there involved in that we hadn’t been able to get them too.. if someone would please help us I promise as soon as I’m able someway I’d pay it forward even if down the rode when extra money was around I get our van fixed and just give it to a family in need for free and not ask them for any money for it .. I hope God will put it on someone’s heart to assist us in making this down payment. Your kindness would not go unnoticed the pic below is my wife and autistic son p.s I hope my feet can hold up a little bit longer walking 22 miles a day round trip is not an easy task to make yourself do it would be as easy to call into work and miss but when I decide to get married and decided I was bringing kids into this world I had an obligation to care and raise them to the best of my ability and do my absolute very best to make sure they always had everything they needed to live a healthy and productive life also I made a vow to my wife to love honer protect and take care of her no matter what so if that means I have to walk 22 miles to earn a paycheck so I know my family will have a place to lay there head at night and know there will be a hot meal for my youngens to eat then by golly I’d walk 22 miles 7 days a week if that’s what it took.. I won’t be the guy who let his family down even tho I have wore the most painful blisters on my heels and feet I still get up and take off walking.. someone please help us my wife and I our parents are both gone I’m the only child my wife does have a half sister but she is not around so all we have is each other and have to do what we have too to survive in this life I just hope someone has the means to help us make the down payment

thank you for your time and your willingness to at least read my story .. may God bless everyone and may God bless our world .

I have never been the one to ask for a handout. Even my parents, I help them. They don’t help me. They never have. I even co-signed for a car for my mom and when she lost her license and job I gave her my entire savings for college… almost $10,000 to pay off the car loan she had. Now years later, I am married with a beautiful daughter and a home, but am struggling to catch up on bills with my husbands income is 1/3 of what it used to be. We wanted more than anything to give our daughter the life we never had (we both grew up on welfare and even homeless at times) and are devastated that we are now in the position that we are in. We’re $1500 behind on car payments alone and barely make it where our electricity is kept on. Our almost 3 year old is started to understand more and sees my husband and I struggle and stressed. That’s everything we didn’t want her to experience. We’re in about $8,000-10,000 in debt and behind and I can’t help but get so upset that had I not helped others in the past I wouldn’t be where I am right now. I couldn’t even afford a wedding (we got married at the courthouse just legally and went out to lunch afterwards). Now living in flint I even worry about human trafficking, and crime in our area. I don’t know what to do and have no one to help us. I’ve never wanted to resort to asking for help but here I am, with nowhere else to turn. I’m just praying for a small miracle at this point. My anxiety is crippling everyday especially when things happen like my car completely breaking down while I owe money on it…. now I can’t get to a job to make money which is a double whammy and puts us in such a difficult position, so really anything helps even if I could just pay one bill I just don’t know what to do.

Today, my car broke down. Everything was going okay in my life. I was holding it together. Not progressing, but not stagnant or paused like I was for the last two years of my life.

I finally saved up enough money to buy the perfect urn for my sister this past weekend. In two weeks, it will be two years since she passed. She was absolute light. We barely had enough to cremate her. We had to beg the funeral director to see her, against his wishes because she was not dolled up. We begged and got 20 minutes. 20 minutes of her laying inside of cardboard.

When I finally had enough money for a cheaper urn, every urn we came across was so dark. And cold. I hated to look at them. So I found one that made me feel her life when I looked at it again. My mom was in tears when she came into her room and found it. The cardboard box she had been kept in, finally empty. She has spent two years and 20 minutes inside of cardboard.

$600. It took me two years.

I was about to drive to work when my tires wouldn’t steer. They just sunk. I feel like I sunk down with them. Like a part of me is still down there.

$1400. I sunk when I saw it.

Why is this life so difficult to carry on in like everybody else? My first thought was to return the urn. How horrible of a thought. How has life made me think this way? That returning my sister’s ashes to cardboard would be alright to do because I will be paying less than half of the repairs to a stupid vehicle… a vehicle. My sister.

And I won’t even be able to drive my car even then. Two years… it will take me four. It will take me 6 just to get her back into something dignifiable.

I will take anything. Anything to avoid taking her back out.. please..
