Hello, my name is Carla. I am in need this time of year.. As a single, parent also raising her siblings- I made Christmas very good here at home but unfortunately my transmission on my car gave away a few days before Christmas and I find myself with no other options but to at least attempt to seek help. I don’t expect a hand out. I WILL PAY IT FORWARD! I ask for nothing, and have worked hard for all I have- wasn’t until recently I found myself unemployed.. and getting another car is imperative, given my outer city residence.

I am the oldest of 8. One of my brothers passed away when I was 6, the other I was 14. Joesph who died when I was 14 was second to me. He was born with a fatal disease called hunters syndrome. But he was one of those kids who touched anyone who met him. A true gift. My other brother died of SIDS and 6 weeks old. After my mom lost James- the baby- she fell into drugs, she was depressed. My dad was here and there sometimes- but he never was there emotionally for her, or us kids. I found myself having to be the functioning parent. Looking after my mom, the kids, the household chores and missing a lot of school. I was not literate back then. I could read or spell- and my learning disability followed me through high school.  Eventually they put us in foster care. Again I had to be brave for my brothers and sisters. It was hard. We ended up in a bad places, my mom and dad separated, and I had no contact with them- or any of my other relatives for almost 2 years. At age 15 my Dad finally got us out of foster care. Now my MOM was still emotionally ill and on drugs. I seen her occasionally. At least once a month I went to dinner with her at a franchise diner. I was 17 at the time… We had good pasta and she had a friend give her a ride home, and offered to drop me off as well. I got out of the car gave her a kiss and hug and told her I loved her. That day though… I stayed in the middle of the intersection and watched the car drive away as if I were missing something. I waited until the car was no longer in sight and then finally left the street to walk into the house (Something told me in my head.. I would never see her again) . 2 days later… I found out she had died. BUT!!! a few weeks later, I found out I was pregnant with my Daughter Kassidy and know she was with me! to jump forward to now- My dad is no longer in the picture, he gave up. I am a single parent raising my girl and the last three younger siblings- John, Lindsay(Now 19) and Danni. 14 and 15… all alone. I know what my purpose in life is: it’s to be a caregiver for those who need me. and it seems this is a lesson I was being trained to do all along since day one. Of course I’ll be okay. Besides all that.. My faith carries me always. It is the pure will of a person to be heroic in these bad situations which glorify the purpose of our iniquities and hardships. Which is good… and also Love. I think that is all that truly matters over all. One’s ability to fight for another and his/her good fortune. truth is…..in all honesty- I am very lonely and sad much of the time. I raise three children alone, I don’t make much money…but I am ok I find myself facing the world alone everyday.. and that can be rather cold and a hard pill to swallow. Being the oldest of my siblings.. I never give clue that I am feeling outed. Instead I put on a smile, or my brave warrior face. I have been used, hurt, abused, and have suffered a great deal. But… that’s okay. You see.. it’s not about me. It never was. No matter how much it hurts… How much I want to give in, or how much I literally want to lay down and cry….. There is not one being on this planet who has tears that are less important than mine. I am tired.. but I have work to do, until the day I am no more.” these aren’t empty word on my behalf… I come from a very dark place. But I keep a light on always… I never lose hope. What you see is a broken girl who has been put back together so many times losing pieces along the way. I am not afraid to give myself up for others. And I am not asking for a reward. Just a little help when I really really really need it.

Please help my family and myself purchase a vehicle. I will settle for an old 1981 $900 junker.. I just need something to make sure we can move from point A to point B, and continue my active job search. My broken truck sits with a $2200 repair quote, I only paid 2000 for it 3 years ago.. so I figure it would not be wise dumping more money into it.

I’m a young twenty-three year old man who has fallen in to desperate times. I did not even know help like this existed. If you’re out there reading my story, it all began in March of this year (2014.) I drive a 2011 Mazda 2, still making payments on it, and had the misfortune of hitting a curb and messing up my passenger side tie rod, which is a whopping $883.00 to repair (Goodyear estimate) I have been unable to repair that as I lost my job back in June, and have been living with my father, a fifty-five year old man who dedicated his life to raising two sons on his own. A sweet man, whom battled cancer for many years, and has survived treatment for prostate and colon cancer so far. Currently his health is improving, but I am struggling to make it, I work part time at a movie theater and its not paying the bills. I’m facing repossession on my vehicle and recently my passenger window was busted out. I’m starting to give up on this car, as its cost me so much in the short years that I’ve had it. My monthly payment is $263.04, and I’m approaching my next payment date. I don’t know what to do, I was raised to never ask for a hand out but so many shortcomings in such a brief amount of time, this was all I could think of. Anything would help. I just have to keep this car somehow, as its the only vehicle in my family and without it we wouldn’t make it. Please help me out.

 

Thank you sincerely for reading my story.

Greetings,

 

My name  is Krystopher, and I am currently 19 years old. The purpose of this message is to ask for the amount of 9,000 (nine thousand) U.S. Dollars. The reason I am asking for this amount is rather simple. I want to buy myself a car. From very young cars have been a passion of mine. I remember, when I was 5 years old, that I played Gran Turismo on the Playstation One at my friend’s house and I was so into the game that I would fall asleep and wake up the next day on my friend’s bed with the controller still in my hand. Most of my room was plastered with car posters (Porsche 911 and Chevrolet Camaro SS posters come in mind) and all of my toys were car toys. I also remember saving every penny I had to buy Hot Wheels cars when they were the rave. When I hit 13, I started to lose my flame for cars. It wasn’t until I turned 16 that my passion for cars returned. Since then, the only two words that come out of my mouth are: cars and engine. I got my license at 16 and since then have enjoyed the car that my mother let me use. But now with my upcoming tuition fees I can’t muster up the money I need to buy the car of my dreams, a Mazda Mazdaspeed6, hence why I took the time to write this letter to whomever will be willing to read it. Attached will be a picture of my mother’s car, a Mazda 3 sedan with 180,000 kilometers on the odometer in an IGA parking lot.

 

With high hopes and regards.

Hello, my name is Frank and I a SSG retiring from the military under honourable conditions due to health issues. My last tour in Afghanistan was 18 months long and when I returned I couldn’t work because of a surgery. I went from active duty back to the MSARNG and fell through the cracks and have been dealing with my medical issues through the Army and VA. It has not been a fun time for myself and my family. The good news is that I have found a good job the bad news is that my vehicle problems are overwhelming me. My wife has a KIA that quit running, my Truck just died and my motorcycle which was my biggest therapy for my PTSD has not ran since my return from this tour. I have done four tours in the last ten years as an infantryman, served my country and my soldiers, but have failed returning to civilian life. I suck it up every day and deal with the pain but cannot seem to get on solid ground because of car issues. I hate asking for help but I have a family so if humbling myself and admitting that I am not perfect is what it takes to help them then I humbly ask. I need back surgery and my PTSD makes it hard for me to focus on taking care of one thing at a time. So any help would be appreciated.

Hello first of all I would like to thank you personally for taking the time to read my humble request for assistance.

My 2001 jetta recently broke down. Bad fuel pump and alternator.

I live close to work so this is not the problem. My ex is using the fact I do not have a car against me to prevent me from seeing my daughter. We’re in middle of divorce and nothing is final, so my hands are tied to the situation.

My job pays 11 an hour and I’m lucky to get 40 hours some weeks, others not so much.

Between my making sure bills are paid and my daughter’s needs are taken care of ( food clothing presents education) My budget simply does not allow me to save much for the repairs I need.

Any amount helps and once again thank you for your time.

Happy holidays!

I am currently just finishing my bachelor of nursing at university and have been working shift work at a nursing home to help support me during this time. I have been away from the family home and never asked for assistance before. Lately I have been forced to travel an hours to work each day which began to take it’s toll. I fell asleep behind the wheel one day and wrote my car off. Now I am struggling to pick up enough hours to make ends meet and need a new car. Any help would be very much appreciated. :)

Hello, my name is Micah Lamb, and I have never truly understood needing help until now. I have worked at Taco Bell in my native Knoxville for three years now, and I have always been able to take care of myself fairly well. Sure, there have been quite a few “Ramen For Dinner” nights, but I suppose that’s how minimum wage works, right? Recently, my general manager has shown interest in promoting me to Shift Manager. My pay would jump from $7.70 to $10.50 and I would be getting 40 hours a week with as much overtime as I could handle. I jumped at this chance, and started my training to get there. Four days ago, my car (2000 Honda that I have taken extremely good care of) started making whining sounds and refusing to go into gear without significant urging. I brought it into the mechanic yesterday and he told me the transmission had just about had it. The grand total to fix it is roughly $1000. I had a modest $300 in my savings account, but it has all gone towards this month’s rent. I have asked my mother, father, grandparents, and all three of my roommates if there was anything they could help me with, but they refuse me any help whatsoever. I called my boss and explained the situation, but he gave me the ultimatum I wasn’t ready to hear: If you’re not here tomorrow, we’ll have to let you go. Well tomorrow is now today, and even though I pleaded with everyone I could think of, I couldn’t even afford to take the bus to work. So now I’ve been sent away from the job I’ve dutifully worked at for three years, a car I can’t use to seek new employment, and the long shadow of bills looming over my shoulder. The $57 you see in my bank account is all the money I have to my name, and fifty-five of it is predetermined for rent tomorrow. I don’t know what to do at this point. I’ve never been one worry about money, but the anxiety I feel now is almost palpable. Any help whatsoever is inexplicably appreciated, and I will save your PayPal info so I can to pay you back once I’m back on my feet. I know these words are only meaningful to those who read them, so I will plead one more time before I go; please don’t let me drown.

I am currently in my first year of a new program at college(I spent two years in mechanical engineering previous but decided I wanted a change).  I have to pay for everything myself, including tuition, books, car, gas, insurance, food, phone etc and currently I am only able to find temp work while looking for a steady job.  The car I currently own is rapidly falling apart and I also got into a bit of a fender bender recently due to poor road conditions(I live in Canada) and the fact that I am unable to afford snow tires.  I am looking for help to be able to afford a safe and reliable car, hopefully one with AWD or 4WD.  Any help would really be appreciated!!

Hi Guys,

The past few years it’s been pretty rough after my parents divorce and taking care of my mum and well as having quite a few health problems incl. depression, anxiety, glandular fever & chronic back pain. I’ve taken a hit financially with all the medical bills and taking care of my family. Unfortunately my car has decided to fall apart and without the car I’ve been needing to take public transport and taxi’s to work everyday. The bill for the car will be around $500-700 and I’m just not able to cover it at the moment, paying rent and bills. Here’s where I unfortunately have to look for someone for help. Most of my family is estranged and my immediate is needing my help so they cannot help with this cost. Due to myself being ill quite a bit I’ve had to stop working full time & go back to around 15-26 hours a week at work – therefore not leaving any options for repaying loans immediately. I hate asking for help – but it’s my only option right now.

 

Sincerely appreciate anything!

Kindest Regards xo

Hi all, I was driving to work one early morning and I was hit by a semi truck. I wasn’t severely hurt because it was at speeds of around 30 mph, he did not use his turn signal or anything and just merged in damaging the side of my car, I went to court after and they denied my request because they said it was my fault, even though it wasn’t and now I am at risk of losing my job which I so dearly need to keep surviving, but I need my car to get to my job.

I will be forever in your debt if you can help me…Sadly my bill is $25,000 and it’s a nearly brand new car, but will now be a salvage title because its repairable.

If you can help me it will be appreciated greatly.

Just looking For Some Help!

I’m saving up to buy a 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi (My dream car)

I’ve got $3,000 saved up and my current car’s trade in value is around $4,000 so I essentially have about 6k-7k saved up!

The 2007 model usually runs for around 17k-18k

I’m not asking for someone to buy this car for me, I was just seeing if there are any car enthusiasts who share my love for STi’s and wanted to help in my quest to get my dream car by giving just a couple bucks!

If you want to send me a couple bucks to help me out that would be super appreciated!

I’ve also provided a picture of the specific used car listing I’m currently looking at.

My current vehicle is about to be repoed which is in my parents name. I am trying to find a cheap car just to get myself back and forth to work along with my step daughter to school. My credit is not good enough for a loan on my own without a down payment. They said if I could come up with $2000 to put down I can get approved.  Mind you this is a 2004 car..so I am not wanting to get a fancy car. I just want something reliable and safe. Please help me. I am 26 years old and no one ever taught me what good credit was. As a kid I never tried to get mine in the great standing and now I am reaping the misfortune.  I have never asked for money like this but I just don’t know what to do. If I can not figure something out I will lose the car I have no, which is entirely to much monthly for me right now, and will not have a car to get myself to work.

[don8 email=”jenna.spires1@gmail.com”]

Hi. I do a lot of work on cars. Mostly for myself, but also other people. I don’t make a lot of money doing this work. Mostly, I save a lot of money by working on my own cars, and I learn, learn, and learn some more. Occasionally, I teach people how they can do some work on their own cars.

I have a decent paying job in a field I’ve been working in for about 30 years. It’s “ok” money, but it’s not enough to be able to do what I need to do. My body is also telling me that I need to work on cars without being on the floor, any more. I need to purchase a car lift, 4-post, American made with American steel, that can handle your basic family car, no more than 8000 pounds. The one I would really like to purchase is called, “Backyard Buddy”, and it’s made in Ohio. It costs around $5000 dollars.

With this lift, I could do more work for other people, which would save them even more money, and pay me a little bit here and there. This is not really an “income”, as it is just a little easier paying for the tools I need to do the work in the first place.

I’d really appreciate help with this project. It would make it safer for me to be under the cars, allow me to do a better job, and not injure my back and hips like I’m starting to notice is happening. I really enjoy teaching other people how they can take care of their vehicles better. If you need me to work on your car, then let’s chat.

Need $1500 so i have a car to get to work. Please Help

I am in dire need of some money to help with my car. I got into a car
accident a few days ago. I was told my estimated amount to repair the car is
$3800. I am not capable of paying to fix it at the time and need a way to
get to work. If anybody could help it would be greatly appreciated. 

I just am not able to afford it at this time and i will have to quit my job
because i would not have a way to work anymore. I cant afford losing my job
right now because i need to be able to support my son. It would be greatly

appreciated all i need at the most is around $1500 just so i can get a used
car and not have to worry about fixing the car until sometime in the future
when i am more financially well off.

Need to fix car

I am desperately in need of a new motor for my car. I have a mechanic
friend that will help me put it in, but I need $750.00 for a used motor.
Without my car I can not get back and forth to work, in which I will not be

able to support my family. I had recently lost my job and am working side
jobs doing whatever I can for now to support my two children. It has been a
rough road and I am struggling but all I care about is my kids. I have been
making enough to put food on the table and clothes on there back, but I am

scared to death right now because I have no transportation or anyone else to
help, including any family. There is no public transportation where I live
and I cannot afford to take a taxi everyday. I am asking for your help so I
can get my car fixed and continue with my life to support my 7 and 9 year

old children. I don’t know any other way to go and have no credit. I am
asking for you to please help with whatever you may be able to afford and it
will be greatly appreciated from the bottom of my heart. When I am able, I
would love the opportunity to help those in need. Thank you and god bless
America.

PLEASE HELP ME FIX MY CAR

First off i would like to thank you for even taking the time to read this.
Second off I would like to be extremely clear as to why I need money.
I do have a job. But every last dime I make goes towards paying for mine
and my families house as well as food for us and our baby.

Sadly, my car has taken a turn for the worst and now needs several repairs.
I NEED my car to be able to get to work so that i can continue to slide by
on what i make.
My car needs:
intake manifold gasket/seals
camshaft and crankshaft position sensor
harmonic balancer
oil pan gasket.

those are just a few of the things for starters.
I doubt I will get enough to take care of everything, but anything more than
what i have will be a great help.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you again for your time.

Single Mom Needs Money

I am a young single mother living in my own place in need of repair money
for my car and to get my hot water turned back on. My car’s engine went out
on me and I do not have $1,000 to fix it. I also need money for food for my

Son and I. I’m not asking for much because my debt is out of this world due
to being sick and always in the hospital. I suffer from heart disease to say

the least. I just need a little help to get things back in order.
in this case, a dollar can go a looooong way.

My hospital bills are $30,000 My hopes and dreams are to get back in great
physical condition so that I may join the Army at the beginning of next
year. I’m a hard worker when my health cooperates with me.

Need a car

First off I wanted to say how much I appreciate that you are taking the time
to read this. Just wanted you to know that this is the last resort. Me
asking for a handout. I have never been in this position before but I have
no other alternative. This is mostly for the safety of my 16 yr old
daughter.

Let me start off telling you that My car is 1998. I Bought it when it was
only a couple of years old I have had it ever since. I have replaced almost
every thing on it. Including the transmission. About 7 months ago my

transmission went out again. But at the time I did not have a job so
therefore I could not fix it because I did not have the money. It was going
to cost me around 2000 dollars again. Well that cost more than what my car
was worth. I had to sell it to stay afloat with some bills.

I have been walking everywhere. 2 miles to grocery store and anywhere else I
need to go. I have a 16 yr old girl and a 19 month old boy. With no help
from anyone including friends or family. I am currently a full time student

trying to better myself. The whole reason I am on here is that I am afraid
that my 16 yr old is suffering. She is a good kid and deserves more. I feel

that i am putting my daughter under a lot of stress. She is starting sports
at school and is having to beg for rides home.Plus I cant go to any of her
meets or games.

My daughter also has to walk almost 2 miles to the bus stop with dark
streets and through a known bad neighbor hood at 5:15am in the morning. She
has walked in the rain and cold to get to her bus stop at 5:45am. Most kids

would probably say forget it or just skip. She never complains. She also
doesn’t have a cell phone so therefore I worry all the time about her
safety. I am constantly stressed. I recently rode my bike with my son in his

bike trailer to his doctors appointment which is 5 miles away. There and
back in the hot sun. Currently 92 degrees. I am at the breaking point and
not sure how much more I can take. I have had no one offer to take me to the

store or even ask if I am ok. So this is the main reason I am asking for
help. I am so stressed that it is making me sick. I also need a car because
i need a job.

Thank you so much for listening to me and anything contributed will be
appreciated.

Please Spare some Money

I’m the only one working in our home. Right now, I support my husband,
who is disabled. He’s not getting any public assistance or social security.
Nothing we apply for seems to be available to us – argh!

Our car has needed its transfer case repaired for years. No matter how I
try, I am never able to save up for it. We also need our “lower ball joints”
fixed. Oh boy, I know nothing about automobiles.

I work very hard. We don’t spend on extravagant things. Like a lot of people
in our area, we go days without food (I know it sounds dramatic, but more
and more Americans are forced to do this, as you probably know) so that we
can pay bills. It’s really disheartening. We just want to be able to break
even, but we’re falling so far behind.

I’ve sold just about everything I can. I have books and movies to sell, but
it seems nobody buys. I know I can do better than this! I’m just down in a
hole right now. If you can possibly spare some money, could you help us?
Thank you.

Need a car to get back to work

Hello my name is Brett, and over a year ago i lost my car do to a person
who was my friend at the time took my car and crashed it in to the curb and
broke the axles and it was beyond repair.

After the incident i had no way to get to work because there is limited
transportation in my area. so i got fired from my job because i had no way
to get to there.

So i had to start collecting SSI from the government and it doesn’t pay the
bills so i have to rack up a credit card just to eat and pay bills.

i really need to get a car so i can get back in to the working world or
start a business.

i will return your money after i get back on track. which could be a year
but i will keep record of all donations .

thank you and God bless

Please help with car repairs

I’m a father of two kids who always works and provides for my family
until I got laid off. I was able to get a job but for the moment I’m only
working for a part time job and just making enough money to pay for food,
rent and bills. My car broke down and I really need money ($800) to fix it

because if I don’t I will lose my only income and my situation will be
worse. I have a very little family and they are not able to help.
Please consider helping me to get my car fixed.

I would greatly appreciate any donations. Thank you for your consideration.

Need help getting car fixed.

I just got my car towed to a mechanic and i cant afford the repairs. If i
dont get the car repaired soon i will lose my job and my home. I am the sole
income for both me and my mother how had a heart attack and is out of work.
please anything even a nickle would be great, thank you so much.

My children and I need a working vehicle. If I had a working vehicle I would
be able to get a decent paying job. Currently we live off of VA Pension and
Social Security, as my husband died 12 years ago; he was shot by a co-worker
(accidentally). Over the years, it has been rough. My 13 year old is
beautiful and has all the talent in theworld, and given the right
circumstances she might be able to use those abilities to her benefit. But

for now . . . it’s up to me, and we have just enough to cover the rent, and
utilities. That being said … food comes from food pantries. I am in the
process of being approved for food stamps, but I wouldn’t need that if I had
a job that fit into the schedule while they are in school. I am in a bind,
and by no means am I trying to play on anyone’s heart strings. I just am in
Need. Plain and simple. I’m also at the end of my rope. I don’t know how
much longer I can deal with these things. I’m just asking for a chance to
make my children’s future better.

Thank you (whomever you are) for reading this plea. My partner and I took a
stand for our love and lived out our car for a month! One year later, we are
in our own apartment, and paying the bills. Things have balanced out pretty
dramatically, but a speed bump has come about. I’ve missed my renew payment
on my car insurance, and now the DMV is involved. My license has been

suspended which we use to get to work. Our present money is being consumed
by bills and food. If we get stopped by the police, they will tow it, which
will result in us losing money from our jobs, which we use to pay our bills.
I must have insurance and a driver’s license to keep our lives afloat.
Unfortunately, our families aren’t in the position to help us. I’m afraid
we’ll fall back to where we were a year ago if we don’t clear this insurance
thing up NOW! It cost more than 500.00 in fees to reinstate my license, car,
and renew my insurance. Anything anyone can do help our dream reality remain
a constant will be greatly appreciated.

I am a part time college student struggling to survive being unemployed and
having to pay for tuition, rent and insurance. And now to top it all off my
car just broke down and needs major fixing that I can’t afford. Not sure if

I’ll even be able to get a ride to get to my school for upcoming classes.
Please any donation would help. I would be so appreciative. Thank you

I have always worked and paid our bills, but now it has reached a point
where after my wife was laid off from teaching and me injuring both my knees
at work and missing work for months on top of providing for 4 children
school clothing, food, keeping our 2 vans running both with over 210,000

miles on them, We have reached the bottom I believe, I am humbled to my
knees and beg for anybody that is blessed with extra income (just as long as
it doesn’t take away from your family) to possibly donate any amount, to fix
my wife’s van will take $450 and my van is beyond repair so I’ll just look

for another one for $1,000. We don’t drink or smoke or gamble so please be
sure your money will be used for our childrens welfare and food. Many Thanks
for ANY donation.
Humbly Grateful, Tony

Trying to keep a long story short, we live in a rural area where a car is needed. We can not afford to eat and now have no car to go to food banks or take senior citizens to the doctors. We had a perfectly good car we were forced to get rid of because they do not want people to have 15+ year old cars anymore in this area.

So the senior citizen of the family takes out a loan to get a used car. Rock bottom price in this area is $5000. Car dies one week later. It is at a garage right now but we have no way of getting around $500 for the repairs.

Disabled member of the family is willing to sell their Playstation 3 all games and accessories but we can not fork out the ridiculous price to place an ad in our newspaper, so who will know I am trying to sell what little I have? Neither of us can walk to a store. We are house bound without a vehicle.

Hello. My name is Lei and I am a mother of 3 beautiful growing boys and wife to a great husband. Oddly enough, we have devoted years to giving to others. As a family, we’ve taken in friends/strangers and helped them to get on their feet, we’ve worked with many non-profit groups for children, hospitals, and adopted families for Christmas every year.

Unfortunately, it all turned for the worst when my husband was diagnosed with Cancer last fall (uninsured of course). Since then, we have closed all of our bank accounts, cashed in all the 401k’s, and have sold through everything we own to cover medical bills. Right now we are behind in rent $1300 with another $1300 due on the 1st of July (just a few days). Our landlord is absolutely unforgiving and does not tolerate late payments. I am so scared we will have to move.

The car we have right now is completely unreliable. With every trip to work, the doctor or grocery store, we pray that we will make it there. This illness has already been hard on all of us. As the sole provider now, I cannot bare to see everyone suffer.

Right now I am working my regular job during the day and teaching dance classes at night, coordinating doctor’s visits yet trying to provide for my boys and it is still not enough. We have no family to help. I am trying my best to hold on for everyone. Please help in anyway you can. Right now anything goes a long ways.

Hello world, I have never done this before, however there is a first time for anything. I have run out of options and this is my last resort. I work as a pizza hut driver to pay my way through school and basically all my living expenses. My car recently broke down, and the mechanics want over $2000 in repairs. I see about $300 per pay check.

Rent with utilities come to over $750. Therefore; I live by only making ends meat. The problem lies with the car. Without the car I cannot work and earn money. I have now hit rock bottom. Job searching endlessly, with no results. I had to quit school because I can’t afford it anymore. If you think you can help even with $1 please do so it would mean the world to be. Its funny you can’t live without money, but its so hard to come by nowadays.

I’m probably not in as bad a position as some, but i still need help. I am 53 married and am clean for 21 years from drugs and alcohol. I own 7 houses live in one and rent out the other six. I have worked steady for the past 21 years .
Wife has been in college , graduates in december/January.
We go to church and help people when we can , serve in the youth ministry.
I also help people get clean from drugs and alcohol every time I can.
I have not missed a mortgage payment yet, but due to college fees and other bills. repairs we have run up our credit cards to about $35K.
I am feeling afraid lately , I don’t have the mortgage payment this month yet, helped my daughter out last week with some money (she lives with her son out of state)
Tried to get a loan and was told I was high risk and had an income debt ratio of 190% , or 85% after adding rentals.
If I can get the credit cards paid off I know we can work a budget out when my wife graduates and starts working in January. $35-$40K would get us debt free. and through till January.
We owe about $500K in mortgages, the properties were supposed to provide income not drag us down, two are negative equity, the rest are about even .
I know we are not the most needy but I still feel it can’t hurt to ask for help.
God has blessed us no matter what happens next.
Thanks and god Bless you!

Beaten down young woman desparatetly needs financial help. My car was stolen and I had to borrow money to get it back. Now I have to pay $500 in repairs since it was found. I have no groceries because I cannot afford them. I do what I can with my low paying teacher assistant job. I need to pay back my college to obtain my degree so I can get better jobs.
Please help! Please be my blessing.
God Bless
