Emergency Rental, Food, and Bills Assistance Programs

First off, I just want to say thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate it very much. I’m now reaching out because I’m in need of some help. I am 31-years-old and I live alone with my dog Bailey and no income. On February 13th of this year, my Mother passed away. She was a very hard working woman who basically sacrificed any time for a personal life in order to take care of me and her own mother, my grandmother, who became increasingly difficult and ill until she passed away back in 2009. Once that happened, it just, seemed like my mother’s health began to deteriorate just as bad. She continued to work from home, but when it came to cleaning, grocery shopping, and other errands, it all fell to me. During this time she went through so many hardships, developing pulmonary embolisms and getting seizures, having a stroke, then losing her job, which was probably dealt the biggest hit to her health. I just remember her getting so depressed and crying about it…It was really heartbreaking, but I did my very best to stay strong for her and help out whenever possible. Unfortunately her condition got so bad she couldn’t even walk properly anymore, and needed to be on constant oxygen. I later found out that the buildup of fluids in her body had been causing her a great deal of pain, and that her kidneys were shutting down. There were no longer any viable options of getting it off her, and she eventually passed away in hospice.

The reason I’m writing this is because during this time, it became impossible for me to go back to work. Just like she did for her own mother, I had to put any time I wanted for a personal life on hold. And I’ll be honest, I hated it. I constantly felt trapped and would find myself wondering why don’t I leave to live my own life. I could never do this of course, because she was my mother, and you just don’t ditch and abandon your family no matter how difficult they can be. So now that she’s passed I find myself in a bit of a bind. I’ve been struggling to find some kind of employment or income since April. I’ve been very, very lucky to be able to receive food stamps, and that my Uncle has been keeping my utilities alive for the past 2 months, otherwise I’m pretty sure I’d be without and/or homeless. This house is big, and was meant for a family to live in. But now that it’s just me, I find that it’s upkeep is becoming harder and harder to manage. There have always been so many problems with it, but the biggest problem I’m having now is cleaning and sorting through all my mother’s and grandmother’s possessions. They both had a problem with hoarding things, and during the time my mother fell ill, the cleaning and maintenance just got away from me. The kitchen, along with several other rooms have become completely unusable, and what’s worse, mice have begun to come in and try to make nests here. I’ve been doing my best to catch them all, but there starting to get harder to catch, and I’m beginning to run low on traps. It also doesn’t help that I’m afraid of them.

I’ve called and gotten estimates from several hoard cleaning companies, and even found one that was willing to work with, but they still need some kind of payment before they can get started. The lowest they were willing to go is 3000, which would take care of all the rooms and allow me to go back to sorting out things and selling items. I can no longer ask my Uncle to help because he has his own family and finances to take care of. And sadly I don’t know of anyone else that would be willing to give me a hand or loan, so I’m turning to the generosity of strangers until I can find a stable job.

I really hate asking for handouts, but I really want the opportunity to turn this house around. If I can do that then I should be able to sell a few things and ultimately, sell the house and find a more manageable place to live. $3000 is what I’m in need of, and my circumstances have made it difficult for me to achieve this goal. But, honestly, I’d be grateful for any donations received. It would give me a chance to start a new life on my own with Bailey fairly.

To whom it may concern,

My name is Joseph Meccariello of 78 Saltbush road Kambalda West in Western Australia. Born  7/11/1957.

Over the last ten years I suffered from  anxiety and depression (since childhood) and other various medical ailments including viruses and the worst case being diagnosed was an abscess on my kidney which was life threatening.I was placed on an antibiotic drip every six hours and for 10 days. Three months later I was sent for scan on the same kidney and an reaction to the contrast dye. Anaphylaxis the result and  strangely lost a lot of my blood platelets.

In 1995 as passenger I was involved in motor vehicle accident that almost took my life, near bakers Hill. (I am happy to sign an authority if you wish to check this information, also I have quite a bit of documentation on hand).

I mostly worked in mining delivery driving mine maintenance (shutdown maintenance work) some truck and bus driving. Due to all these Mental health issues and physical issues I can no longer work in my usual occupations.

The government system is lousy, they profess to help people get back into into work unfortunately they pay organizations to be “job services providers” in my opinion they serve their own purpose.

I have currently been diagnosed PSTD due to the horrors of physical abuse on me and my Mother from my father (deceased Jun 2005)  So I have taken to study the diploma of counseling. I have been suicidal somehow I find my way back. I want to offer free counseling  for those who cannot afford it. Welfare pays me $512 per fortnight.

I am Isolated here family over east 2200KMS  away a poor relation with them ship to boot. I am struggling financially have not been able to pay mortgage or water and shire rates. have had to rely on charitable assistance to survive. need extra funds to make a trip to Adelaide to see  my mother who is very ill. Can anyone help? Thank you

Before saying anything I wish to reach out to the universal laws and show gratitude with all my heart in order to to say thank you in advance for your kindness and what I am about to receive.

I spend much time wondering how I got into such a downward spiral financially, I was the one member of my my family who put herself through college albeit 15 years after most normal people; the one always firing up my brothers and sisters to get out of their dead end jobs and build a future, yet I am the one who is struggling the most and it’s not through lack of ambition, I promise you that. I have been hovering over the edge for some time and feel like I’m about to fall, I have run out of options. I was merely existing by working and paying bills in a big city until the point came where my outgoings exceeded my income. I couldn’t pay my next rent despite working extra shifts and so gave notice to leave my accommodation within a month so that I could hold on to that little bit of money. It was at that point that I asked for help from a friend from college. She kindly invited me to come and stay a while in Spain with her to recalibrate and get my life back in balance. So here I am working as an English teacher, I have had no or very little income over the summer period because all the schools are out, and whilst trying to engage in this foreign culture among people I cannot yet communicate with I have used up the last of my financial resources and literally counting the days until school starts and I can start earning again. This sounds not too terrible you think, until it becomes apparent that I am reduced to eating once every two days to stretch things out, unable to participate in the fiestas where I might meet people, make friends, learn the language. I have made a few friends however it has become a weekly practice that I am having to pass on invites out for coffee or socialising because I become overcome with dread that I cannot afford even a euro to spare for a small bite to eat if they decide to have a snack together. I feel so isolated and alone, yet I am the kind of person who has no issue striking up a conversation with a stranger in a park or a bar, but because of lack of funds I feel stuck in the flat, miserable. I do have options; I could get my motor car on the road here so at least I have mobility to explore my new territory, unfortunately it would cost roughly 1,200 euros to register my car here, something I can’t even consider when I can’t even afford a daily meal. Selling the car isn’t an option either because the steering wheel is on the opposite side to how they drive here, not to mention the lights would have to be adjusted, etc, etc, the car is of no use to anyone here except me. (believe me I have looked into it). I just wish for a miracle, a little help to lift me out of this dark spot that feels like the bottom of a basin. I am even thinking to write blogs and make money that way but currently my bank account doesn’t even hold enough loose change to set up a hosting service which I would need to monetize my blog. Seems you need money to make money. If you’re interested, my blog is going to be about ‘Housemates, the good the bad and the ridiculous’ recounting people’s humorous experiences of house shares over a period of 12 months.

I literally have less than 10 dollars in my bank account which I cannot access due to the exchange rate making a withdrawal impossible due to it amounting to more than is available. I have nothing left to sell because I sold everything I had in order to make the move here to Spain. (see image). I am now reduced to asking, begging, a fact I am deeply ashamed by but which serves to illustrate how desperate I am. A gift of $10 would be as magnificent as $1000 to me at this stage. Last night I dreamed of eating a plate of Piri-Piri chicken – that’s how I know how bad things are! I have done good all my life, and I suspect that maybe I have been too good and too generous to others at my own expense. A very good friend is getting married back home in a week’s time and I have laid awake thinking of the elaborate excuse I can give her for not being able to attend when the brutal truth is that I can in no way afford to go.

I have learnt lessons from this unpleasant experience and I hope to implement them once I get back up and running some time, I feel lost and hopeless and I can’t wait for this whole experience to be over, to be able to sleep and not wake up suddenly in a panic fearing bank overdraft charges because I used the grains of cash in my account that really weren’t there but I needed the bus fare to go for a days work somewhere. I dream of allowing myself to go out for a coffee and being able to offer to buy one for my friend. Please help me, I’m drowning, not waving. I hope that, amongst all the letters and messages you receive you have faith in an earnest plea for help from little old me, the real life person behind the begging letter.

Hey, My name is Carlos Vessup and I live with my son and his mom in NYC. Just wanted to ask for some help with a few stuff if possible. I messed up my back about 8 months ago and it’s been hard to get back on my feet, trying to support my family at the same time. My 5 year old is sad and that makes me sad. He wants us to be happy and I want to give him at least things he will need especially when it comes to school. My son has an adenoids issue that prevents him from sleeping well at night. Doctors told me he has to stop dairy products but in school that’s mostly what he eats and drinks and I want to prepare his lunch But we can’t afford simple essential items or a lot of food. I do still work and I’m trying my best to get more money but it’s nearly impossible with this back problem. I am the type of person that doesn’t take a no for an answer. I try until the very end and I’ve always tried to keep pushing But it’s about that time that everything is just falling apart. Running out of time and everything is just getting more difficult. Rent is 2 months behind and light bill is over $400. credit cards are maxed out. we don’t know what to do. I don’t want to give up the apt to try to save our credit but then we will have no place to go. my son is in a good school and I don’t want to take that from him. I’m in the middle of trying to fix my issues, going to therapy, visiting doctors, but it takes time and I need help for the time being. I just want to get back on my two feel like I was before so I can continue supporting and working. We need help. We really do at least with essential things like food, electricity, and other small things. I need help with my back and I need help with this apartment. You would change everything. Prevent arguments between us, help fix my chronic back issue, My son with all his needs. it’s endless the possibilities. All I ask is for a chance.  Please if you need me to send any information to support my situation please let me know. Thank you. My son would really appreciate this.

 (¯`·.¸¸.·>> …A summary of our immediate emergency needs and the recent story of our life’s unexpected turn for catastrophe.

….”speaking of catastrophe: what I speak of is an incident, out of the blue,out of the ordinary, that unfortunate occurred at home,with-in our home, here at our lovely and recent new apartment– which we had worked ever so hard to pull ourselves out of the “trenches of homelessness” that despaired us for three plus entire long years.(very long complex story behind that. …currently in process of writing a book,a duet autobiography on the entire honest and real horror story that took place beginning back in Sept. 6,2013).”

 On the approximate date of “mid” July 2017, here in secluded Brattleboro small town Vermont, we were going on with our lives just as the daily norm. ..happening to be in the process of beginning to fully awake from slumber, when a catastrophic event had taken us aback.  …An explosion, no a detonation….perhaps some sort of ignition; or rather …” the sky falling”. …Well, we might as well sum it up as the “sky falling”; as to which we soon discovered, a massive tree limb (the size of a sm-med. tree) came, as if demanding it’s self through our bathroom and bedroom ceiling and roof structure ( structure of roof left entirely dismembered-appraised to be a costly fix-which requires a replacement of the entire structure of the roof itself-valued at a “whopping” :$9,500-10,000{according to two contractors; one contacted-even to include Sevca, whom my landlord reached out to their emergency housing repairs program, as to no avail for a source of help}

    …”No one was left to turn to.”….

          … -after contacting many of the local resource help centers and programs in the area that to our dismay-relayed the same unfortunate news:”we don’t have that kind of money in our resources at the moment; or “this doesn’t exactly count as an “immediate housing emergency”..{even though,as I will later explain: my husband, his daughter, and I reside in the apartment and will soon be displaced out into the cold,that is if we can not find an affordable apartment( a very difficult task in Windham County).  This all due to a “no fault eviction” (..as a matter of fact, we had the greatest relationship with our landlords and a wonderful reference, and just loved living here…thought we’d be here as long as we desired. …reality: not the case as my landlord is incapable of affording to fix the property damages and the dwelling/apt is no longer suitable for habitability. Thus, giving us until the month of October to relocate).

    So far since the horrific incident, we have inquired to about approximately 15 apartments locally with-in our price range ( we must stay local as we do not have access to a vehicle, despite having a license). This may surprise the average reader, but in all actuality; we had only 3 people contact us back out of the 15 or so, and unfortunately as our “luck:” or whatever one may call it, would have it;..well, we were not the “chosen ones” /family for any of those 3 -no longer available apartments.

 (¯`·.¸¸.·>>…So, to sum this all up: this is our plan: It entails the help of God and much prayer. …The reaching out to the community and further…sites such as this one here. ..Direly and sincerely hoping -on the whim that a philanthropist or someone financially affluent-with the desire to help those in “dire straights” to uplift them selves and even further better themselves; {which I’ll explain momentarily what I mean by that last part.}

Oº°‘¨ *Our entire plan, as housing in Wind ham County, VT–where we reside is hard to come by[ as statistically there are not enough affordable units to house the number of seeking people the county holds with-in] …is to Fundraise! — ( ..and do this very quickly) …enough money that we could apply  to our $1,000 savings…in hopes of raising at least another $3,000, in which we hope and plan to purchase a used Rv, or bus, in which our family can reside and travel, but almost better yet: run our upcoming and planned for: pet and human wellness program; to include mobile dog grooming and mobile massage and health consultations. (that is what I prior spoke about, as far as even bettering one’s self/condition; through the generosity and charity of those able to reach a hand back out to us as we’ve reached out to you, and lend that helping hand to help us meet this goal).¨‘°ºO

Unfortunately, I  hope not to foresee-that of which- if this plan falls through to fundraise for the “live in travel mobile business unit /rv”:.. that once again we will surcome back to falling down such a deep trench..so hard to climb out of/homelessness (..and, at the worst possible time in the year..season.)

   ~Your help and generosity in this matter, would substantially and to the greatest extent,”save and secure the welfare of this/our family”;”which will in turn go on to help and restoring security in any possible ways we can -to other families in need; as well as help those whom inquire and participate in our mobile business, as we would not be trying to make a profit out of it, yet rather a “dream goal” 501c, that really works at the grass roots level of the begging level problem.” 

Thank-you for your time and consideration in all ways as to this “reach out for help and hand” as we hopefully can reach our fundraising minimal at the least- goal by Sometime in our last month here of October!

   Any contributions would be a god send, and would forever be of appreciation. ..An appreciation we’d ensure to pass on “like wise”.

   If any contributors would like to keep in future– further contact with us and our travels; whatever/wherever they may be; we will surely make sure to stay in full contact with you.(whether it be by Facebook, newsletter, email, or “snail-mail”; you just name it!) 

   If you have further questions and are a serious inquirer to donate to our family’s cause; you may contact us by email @ stairing.at.the.son@gmail.com; and if your really planning on making a substantial “life changing donation“: you may contact us via phone @ (cell) 802-579-5775 {service will be expiring soon}/ (home) 803-579-1404. {reliable , for now ;)}

Thanks so much and God bless!

Hello, my name is Demarcus ellerbe. I am trying to help my friend Claudia Nohomi López and her two children (ages 2 and 4) who lost their home to foreclosure on Monday, august 28th. Claudia moved to the u.s. 8 years ago with her now 2 children in hopes of a better life, claudia then obtained a job as a call center agent and since has been slowly improving her life. As of november 2016 things changed when she was divorced by her husband and had to start selling valuables and such to make ends meet, then in june of 2017 lost her job due to trying to jungle her schedule as a single parent and maintain a full time job. Claudia has lost everything within a year including her job of 4 years, home and valuables. Claudia is in immediate need of financial assistance for rebuilding and replacing their lives. Claudia is a single mom to her two children and they are temporarily staying in a hotel room. Claudia lost the majority her clothes, her children’s clothes and their belongings due to foreclosure and people taking their belongings that were out in the open. Claudia is in desperate need of a permanent home for her and her children to feel safe and secure. She goes out daily trying to find something better. However, she hasn’t had much luck.

I assure you the funds will be used to help Claudia find a permanent place to stay and to replace her clothing, personal and household goods and a reliable vehicle. Once we have received enough money for Claudia to pay her rent and utilities deposit. I will personally deliver her the money raised for her to use for these things. As well as, any extra money we raise to go towards clothing, personal items.

The family is in immediate need of financial assistance for rebuilding and replacing their lives. They will probably still be rebuilding for a few years. Anything you can give would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for your thoughts, prayers and donations.

Hi, I am in desperate need of some financial help. I can’t believe I am even on here asking for help. I have always been the one that helped everyone but in the last 9 year’s, my life has been in a downward spiral financially. I took on the responsibility or raising my grand daughter so I had to cut back on work. A few years later, my mother became ill and I had to quit working to take care of her round the clock. She passed recently and now I am trying to get back on my feet. I get assistance from the government, but not even $200 a month. Who can live on that? My house was recently sold due to back taxes so I will have to move soon. I am struggling trying to pay my bills and just had my car repossessed.  Now I have no transportation to get  my grand daughter to doctors appointments, pick her up from school if she gets ill or to get to a job. I have a mountain of bills and shut off notices that need to be paid.  If you can PLEASE spare anything to help us get back on our feet it would be GREATLY appreciated and will be put to good use.  Thank you for taking the time to read my story and hope You can find it in your heart to help.

I am writing for help for a very dear friend of mine.  He has had a very hard life but he always carried a smile on his face.  His mother was is a drug addict and would leave him to watch over his his younger brother for weeks at a time with no food starting at age 9.  So he would actually feed them from out of dumpsters. He in and out of foster care after that having no real place to call home.  He married someone who had a stable family hoping it would result in a stable home finally, however that did not end up to be the case.  They did have 1 child during their marriage who is mildly autistic. Even through everything he was always willing to help people get healthy.  He would train anyone at the gym and would even take them shopping so they could make healthier food, all on his own time.  He worked a full time night shift job up until the 21st of July.  On July 21st he received a text message from an ex girlfriend stating she had a tote with some of his belongings that she wanted him to get.  When he arrived he was shot in the chest by some guy that was hiding in the bedroom waiting.  So far he’s lost one kidney, his gallbladder, has had 15 surgery, lost movement in both legs due to bullet being logged in is spinal cord at L1 and L2, has the record for most blood given, and is fighting very hard and is very concerned about his legs.  I am writing for help to purchase a handicap accessible vehicle and other items needed once he is able to come home.  Thank you for your time with reading about his situation and for the possibility for help with this matter.

I am a struggling single mother of three asking for help with no where else that I can turn. I am in need of help with my legal costs so that I remain out of jail and prison. I have turned my life completely around and have done so well that my children who were placed in foster care in May when I gave birth to my son have since been returned to my custody and are living with me permanently. My husband and I are divorcing after 12 years and I am a recovering alcoholic making every attempt I can to protect my sobriety so I can continue to improve my life and the life I can provide to my children. My current fees that are due by September 7, 2017 is 2500. I am working and attending drug and alcohol classes and aa meetings several times a week and I can not afford to pay the full 3000 that is due by Sept 7 2017 all I have been able to scrap up is 500 on a waitress salary. I have an infant son who is 3 months and there are diapers and household essentials such as soap and here recently school supplies for my 10 and 7 year old girls. I am asking for a hand up not a hand out. I am trying my hardest to make ends meat and I am falling short. If you are able to help me my pay pal email is smile.knock.talk@gmail.com

Hello,

My name is Desteny, I’m currently 17 years old. I am a senior in high school, and I live in Florida. I have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, and I’m having dental problems, where I am in need of two dental crowns, which are $1,000 each. You may be thinking that I’m about to ask for money to cover my senior dues, dental crown expenses, medicine expenses. That is not the case. I’m asking for my mom. My mom has been diagnosed with Lupus, and Rheumatoid arthritis. Not all of her medications are covered. It’s hard seeing her in pain everyday. Shes barely getting any work at all. Last month, which was the month of July she only worked 7 hours. That’s not even enough to pay our rent. She can’t find a better job because no one will hire her with all of these physical limitations. Therefore, she is stuck with the job that she has. My brother, who is 24 years old, fresh out of college and is about to pay back over $100,000 in student loans is has moved back home with us in order to help my mom save and pay less bills. Although, she still has to pay over $2,000 dollars. I make $8.75 an hour. I only work about 26 hours a pay period. However, I do my best to help my mom pay the rent, Insurance, etc. To make the situation even worse, her car isn’t even running anymore. She has to rely on riding with other people, or paying for Lyft which is a $18-$20 ride to her job, and back. I was trying to save for A car, but that’s really hard to do when you have bills to pay. I got a job to help out. I may not be able to participate in any senior activities, but this is more important to me. I would have never thought I would be on the internet “begging” for money but right now my mom is in need. She would feel so humiliated if I told her. If you do bless me with any money, I would tell her I won a Grant. It is hard when I see everyone out with their own cars, taking senior pictures. My friends talking about prom and Grad bash, and I play along. Even though I know probably I won’t be able to attend. I know my mom is super stressed, we all are. My mom has always been able to provide for us, she has done way too much, and now because of her condition, and the position that shes in, it’s getting harder and harder. Especially because I know she never would’ve thought she’d be in this position.  I am asking for $6,000 dollars. I know that’s a lot to ask for, but that’s just so she’ll have enough for a down payment, be able to pay bills, and get better treatment.  I know she’ll be happy with whatever she could get, this is truly an emergency.

ps. I’m going to submit a picture of myself  I can’t submit any pictures of bills because I don’t want my mother to know.

Thank you.

I don’t know what else to do. We need help bad. Things have gotten so bad and we just need help to get back on track. It started 2 years ago. I met an amazing beautiful woman. It was just suppose to be a friendship you know someone to have fun with but it quickly turned to more. We finally found THE ONE. But there were 2 problems. First she had only been with men and her neighborhood has a big problem with lesbians. Second her ex is a very violent person and they had just broke up 2 months prior and he had not moved out yet. He quickly became angry with me because she would come home with little things I get her. Nothing major just things I find on FB or Garage sales cheap. Then I came into a little money and was able to get the kids Xmas. That really made him mad. I would go to food pantries in my area to get her a little food. I go to a monthly clothes giveaway and bring over bags of clothes for her and her daughters and grand kids. Her 14 yr old would be so excited she come out and grab the bag and by time her mom get home she had already claimed what she wanted. It was cute. As much as she tried she couldn’t get her ex out of house and she couldn’t just kick him out because he kept threatening to kill me. I had been in similar situation so I understood position she was in. Several times he said he was going to leave and never did. He finally arrested on a 2 year warrant Apr 2016 but only spent 12 days in jail when he got out he threaten her yet again. Yes she tried go police and his friends caught her and stopped her. She was basically a prisoner. He would steal her rent money and since she lived in projects she only had til the 10th to get it or they evict her so I had pay her rent several times. Would have let her and daughter move with me but I only rented a room I didn’t have an apartment. So here I was paying rent and he was living there but I didn’t want her and daughter out on street. I paid her gas several times to. Last Oct  I was attacked and beaten severely. I finally blacked out and only remember up to a certain point. I had gotten out of car at laundry mat and 4 guys ran up on me bashing my head with guns. Shoved me into drivers seat while they empty my trunk. I had BDay presents for her 14 year old daughter and a car seat and stroller for her 24 year old daughter and they threw it all out on the street. They pulled me out of car beating me more then throwing me into the trunk. They drove around and stop to get gas. I tried screaming but they open trunk just enough to tell me shut up or they find her and kill her and kids. They drove some more and then stopped. They opened trunk and took my grandpa ring, my dad ring and bracelet my girl gave me and my phone. They demanded money but all I had was a dollar and they were mad about that so they beat me more. They slammed trunk and then kept opening it and throwing my clothes they had set on fire on to me. Some how they kept going out which surprised me cause they had pretty good flames going. They drove around some more and that when I blacked out. How I didn’t end up with burns is a miracle. Next thing I remember I was freaking out in Hospital trying to get out of MRI machine and 2 nurses were trying to calm me down. I blacked out again and next thing I remember I was in a hospital room. I started looking over my body and they had to of taken me out of trunk at one point and beat the crap out of me more cause I had severe huge bruising over my body in places I have no memory of them beating me on. Plus I was shot and bullet is still in me. I was told my car was torched and I had some how staggered into a bar for help. I was left for dead in trunk of my car and had my trunk been latching I would have burned inside my trunk. Apparently I was lucky and my trunk was not latching so they set my car a blaze and ran and I managed to crawl out of trunk since it wasn’t latching. Doctors were surprised I was even consciousness even though I don’t remember going to bar or ride to hospital or anything in ER. But there were pics of me awake in ER. They thought for sure I would have been in coma or have severe brain damage because there was so much blood on my brain. The cops closed my case 2 and half months later never even tracing my cell phone. I was not able to lock my phone since when I called phone company they wanted my password and I couldn’t remember it so for 6 wks these people continued to call my girl, go in my FB and mess with people and send emails through my email. I finally got it locked after I got out of hospital 6 wks later and physically went to store with ID. I now walk with cane, I can not count money, I have problems with days of the week and barely sleep because of nightmares. I suffer from very bad PTSD. I ended up having to move to Florida to my moms because I was not able to live on my own at that point and her ex was still living there at her house. I was very hurt she did not kick him out for me but found out later she didn’t want to cause me more stress telling me truth. Her ex was increasingly threatening to kill me and beat crap out of her. Said if she went to cops it be her dumbest move cause he knew lots of people and was in gangs and he would simply get a hold of someone and have them kill me. To this day I am not convinced he didn’t have something to do with my almost murder. Her ex finally moved out beginning of February 2017. However he only moved like 5 mins away and talked his way into getting her to talk to him yet again about the same shit. You know “I sorry I love you lets be a family” You know BS stuff cause if her really loved her he would never have beaten her, called her names, hacked her FB, used her, never had job expected her to paid for everything, screamed at her in front of kids and basically abused her emotionally, physically and mentally. She was to ice and would let him talk. There were times I paid her rent and gas cause I didn’t want her and daughter evicted but at same time it saved him to. I got her heaters, fans, clothes , food, air conditioning, Xmas for kids and her, Easter, etc and he had nerve get mad at me .. Ok whatever. Friends have dropped off 2 cats to her knowing she couldn’t leave them out cause she cares to much so she brought them in and ended up with bed bugs. She got rid of bugs and cats. She cleans her house every day so it not like she dirty. It was the cats. Then last month she let cat back in cause it was about have babies and she got extremely infested with bed bugs. This time she lost her bed and huge couch. She only has full bed her and daughter share now and 2 dining room chairs. She keeps saying she come see me but something with her kids come up. Was suppose to come Sept but the only airline I could afford, Aliegent, has no more flights. Her daughter is into who only knows what and has been bringing her kids to her moms house with nothing, She has a 7 yr old boy, 3 yr old girl and just had baby girl on May 17th. So she been expecting me and her mom to get her diapers, food and formula. She been bringing them almost everyday because she is in fear of her life. We no idea what she got herself into but the babies come first. My girl want to move to Florida with me. We are awaiting housing to come through. We are number 35 on list so hopefully by beginning of year. The neighbor hood she lives in is so bad that someone getting killed or taken hospital every other day. Didn’t use be like that. But kids have seen too much. Kids shouldn’t be hitting the deck when they hear something that sounds like gunshots. But in that neighborhood you have to cause that what it is. It isn’t fireworks or something. She won’t ask me to come home cause she scared to death for me and for her and her kids. That neighborhood hates gays. Plus the 14 year old needs surgery but insurance won’t pay for it cause it considers it elective. Umm sorry but when we have keep taking child to ER to get these lumps under her arms cut open and drained of pus because it becomes so painful for her to even move her arm that isn’t elective. So between that and my medical bills from my attack and from what ever infection I got when I got down here we have that to. I got some bad infection that 6 oral prescriptions didn’t touch and it was so painful but no prescription pain killers helped. I had have surgery but infection came right back after 3 days and started forming huge painful lump behind ear again so I ended up having to go on IV meds going to hospital every day for 2 months to get them. First IV med didn’t work finally second did.

So we need move safer place, deposit and rent, medical bills, car and at least beds. I be happy with just getting my family out of there and safe and having a place to live with some beds and hopefully be able to get daughter her surgery.

I not sure how much I need but I want give her and kids a new life. I am not looking for anything shiny and new. JUST SAFER. I want bring her, both daughters and 3 grand kids down here. They all deserve a better safer life. I want so bad to spend Xmas with them. I been picking away at presents for them anything I can find off the Buy, Sell, Trade sites on FB so it very cheap but stuff they will like. These kids are great. Doesn’t have be new in box for them be happy. I am scared they will not have Xmas because yes I have presents but I will NEVER be able afford shipping for this stuff. I scared my kids will be disappointed. Oh and plus my girl has have all her teeth pulled in Sept and I want be there by her side so bad but I can’t. I be happy with a little 2 bedroom. Three would be great but I don’t care. I just want a safer place. Don’t care if we crammed together. Once I get them all down here then we work on finding a place for 24 yr old daughter and grand babies. Her and I have both had very abusive relationships. Her and kids deserve to know what it like to not be scared every second and to have a fresh start.

PLEASE I NEED ENOUGH MONEY FOR DEPOSIT AND A FEW MONTHS RENT AND TO GET THEM ALL DOWN HERE .. Shouldn’t need more then maybe a small U haul and a car to get them and stuff here .. Actually I rather not even bring her daughters couch and beds cause that neighborhood full bed bugs surprised after her being there 15 yrs this first time she had them .. I like just to bring maybe a couple end tables cause my girl really likes them cause I got them for her and toys the kids don’t have many and clothes and my family so maybe I could just get a cargo van and a small rental car.

PLEASE HELP ME GIVE MY KIDS A BETTER SAFER LIFE AND TO BE TOGETHER FOR THE HOLIDAYS .. THEY ARE GOOD KIDS AND DESERVE A CHANCE AT A GOOD LIFE .. PLEASE HELP ME

I LOVE THEM ALL SO VERY MUCH .. PLEASE HELP ME GIVE MY KIDS SAFER LIFE

First I left home to live with my partner. I got a job as a health care assistant. Okay money around 1200 a month. Me & my partner got in an argument because they cheated on me and they kicked me out so had to move back home (Along Way away).  Ended up forgiving them because i’m an idiot (Still With them). because i quit my job to move back home even though i’m back up again they wouldn’t take me back. So I have been living here for months now applying for any job that comes along. I am meant to be paying my partner 250 a month for board. Luckily they are kind enough to let it go until i get a job. So now here we are i stupidly got an O2 contract a year and a half ago 42 a month. I even more stupidly got onto a VERY account. WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE. I did this so i can purchase present for birthdays for: my nieces, my little sister and brother, mother and father; I like to please. So now that has stacked to max 800 me thinking i could pay off back then. So now i can’t pay the 800 pound debt i owe very which comes out 40 every two weeks. Now my Bank current account is now -500 which because it is overdrawn 90 comes out every 3 and half weeks. PLEASE HELP ME. I hate to ask for money. My mother is also really bad with money and i told myself to never follow her footsteps.  One of the reasons my partner wanted me to move in so i could get away from that life. I have recently told my partner because i couldn’t hide my debt anymore. He isn’t very happy but would help me in every way he could if he had any money himself. Plus i would not take it from him anyway. Honestly any help would me so much appreciated.

A little bit about me: While not applying for every job there is I like to write comic scripts (Crime, Drama and soon to be fantasy), sad i know but i enjoy it. I’ll be going to college in September as to sort out my career as a lots happened in the past so i had to get a job. In college i will be doing pet management (luckily I was approved for a bursary and get the course for free) and in future hoping to study a veterinary course.

All I really want is to be out of debt with the bank

Spiritual and material wealth never come hand in hand, something I got to know just when the hidden hints of nature started to opening up themselves before me, following the another truth: Truth reveals Itself.

Born to a banker family, I was hardly interested what my other family members did, booking money. Rather I have always been inclined to cultivate my creative soul, to churn out ideas and make them real. There can’t be anymore pleasure than creating something to use.

Be it little fun stuffs or simplifying complex and rigorous theories or cooking something new or recycling discarded stuffs into usable novelty, I always took great pleasure. Long before the word do-it-yourself became vogue in internet age, I was into it actually.
My engineering academics played its part to instill virtues like precision, perfection, svelte in my psyche later.

As with increasing experience, being blessed and chosen, I focused on seeing the unseen, to connect the hints nature leaves so to find its wishes and process of working involving life and non-life. Astrology is a beginner’s term to describe the area, but its much much more than that, so and so, I don’t need any additional means to decipher any lively happening related to any individual, and relate that to righteous future usability.

Yogi, or, Seer is the best term historically to describe fellow like me. A yogi, yogs or connects the unseen but obvious. Its an Indian term, and found many takers during recent past of new age spiritual movement, but most of the followers were disillusioned later, as the highly abstract methods remained on irrational level. In a result driven world, all want definitive results, to solve everyday issues and see a new start. I relate the rational and irrational world, to pronounce real solution.

The purpose of above words are, I’m not a outright taker, but also a giver. My donors or backers in this tough time, are welcome to get something in return as future lifeway prediction, just the person’s birth information is the only requisite. This is the only thing I’ve to offer right now.

My real world creative adventures now revolves around photography with plans to focus on good old film format, something I find very mystic in sense of artful expression, as its the only medium, that can freeze moments. I’ve also invented some different and unique ways to do this, as a born maker, I’m not always happy what’s in front of me as I always look for simpler options, believing in ‘less is more’ and ‘simple elegance’. Design is my other favorite area, sound system and furniture etc. All my creations are here http://www.flickr.com/jitleo

But everything will be paper and mind without some help, assistance to keep the kitchen fire running as of now.

Things were manageable a few days ago, I was working on own as a online service provider to a local tax & employee retirement fund consultant. But recent ongoing economic reforms in India cost very dear to keep additional fellows. So all of a sudden all became blank to me.

I need very basic amenities to live on while focussing on larger scenario of life and non-life, as I said above, but, now, it’s came to an halt and I’m left with absolutely no monetary resources. And last but not least, I’ve two cats as pets, who are in the middle of nowhere too.

So I’m here.

Hello, my name is Don, I like most people I know grew up loving this country Believing that we were more advanced and more powerful than any other in every way.  I have worked everyday that I could since I could and have paid taxes and dues to society religiously, living the American dream the best I could.. I enjoyed traveling the country in my big rig and riding my motorcycle every chance I got then at age 39 on a hot Aug day in 2016 my life and perspective changed when I was ran off the road on my bike into the cable mediums losing both my legs above the knee.. I broke my back, neck, hand and scapula as well as having no brain activity for two days.  losing my legs and breaking bones were not the things that upset me when all was said and done though..it is the fact that the medical system and government that I grew to love has denied me help with simple survival…any  money o had saved was spent…hospital bills continue to rack up and apparently a person is not disabled when losing two legs because I have been denied twice so far in trying to receive disability…if it wasn’t for a great family I would no doubt be in a nursing home or living under a bridge someplace forgotten by society because of a system that fails its people.  I never have asked for money and hate doing it now but am at a place that I feel I have no other choice, inorder to just keep insurance it would have to be COBRA at over 500 dollars a month because I still havnt been approved for Medicaid and 500 dollars when making no dollars may as well be a million dollars.  I cant drive to try and work, I can’t afford to drive because I have no money anyway and the only way I could possibly drive is with controls that can’t get because of situation…I would just like some help and support to get me on track untill hopefully I will get approved for disability and can start living a life that is somewhat normal and without the worry of money…there are legs out there that mimic walking pretty close but once again am stuck with insecure straight stick legs because insurance doesn’t think it is important to have state of the art legs that actually make life better they will only help with the bare minimum of what they believe they have to….If there is anyone out there who could help me and my family out with my situation it would be greatly appreciated….thank you. 

sincerely

Don

i am a 17 year old female named Emily Pedersen and live in the town of Sale, Victoria, Australia. 3850. I’m having a lot of trouble with money lately, I don’t have any savings, I don’t own much. My grandfather recently bought me a holden astra that I owe him $5500 for which I don’t have any way of paying him back. I’ve tried getting a job, but because of mental and physical sickness this is hard. I have been diagnosed with a hiatus hernia and have recently been diagnosed with sinusitis which I’ve had for at least 5 years on and off which has caused chronic fatigue syndrome. I have huge head aches a lot of the time and a lot of pain near my nose and face from fluid retention from the sinusitis. I get body aches daily and feel exhausted and like I can do nothing. I don’t get paid much from center link and have braces which I will eventually need to pay for when I can afford it as the dentist has went ahead and continued with appointments to try help but need to pay eventually. I am always scratching up money for food medication and extra things I need and its getting hard. Can I please have some help. I have attached a photo of my car and the unit I’m living in for some sort of proof. It can be found on google maps as 2/22 Stawell street, Sale, Victoria, 3850

Hello, thank you for reading this. I do not know what else to do, running on a deadline. I have to be out of the home we are in by the end of August. Luckily I found a place we can be in by September first, which will have my kids starting the school year late but it should be better for us in the long run. The problem is I had to pay rent and bill here for August and the community we will be moving into is asking for the deposit and first months rent, deposit has to be made by this Monday (8/21/17) and we will need the rent by the September 1st, preferably before. Not only do I have to get the $1900 within the next two weeks ($950 deposit & $950 rent). But, I have to pack up these children and move too. My kids are 12, 7 & 4. My boys will be heading to 7th and 2nd grade and my daughter will be starting Kindergarten this year. I so want them to be able to start school in a home. I can’t even think of what is going to happen if I can’t get the rent and deposit. I’m only asking for help with the $1900. My husband and I both work FT jobs and just need help catching up Aug-Sept. & getting relocated. If anyone can please help us. I will forever be great-full. I’ve never done this before so I’m praying this works.

Thank you for considering to bless my family.

Hello, my name is Jeremiah. Due to the fact that I am now here writing a letter asking for money, I could at least give you my name. I’m 25, I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, and I don’t do drugs. I have however been lazy, but let’s start at the beginning. If you wanna skip the next two paragraphs which could be labeled as a “sob story,” feel free.

I grew up in a usual broken trailer in Delaware and when I say broken I am referring to the general state of my being. I had my mother who gambled away her and my fathers money along with whatever drugs she could find. My father worked himself to death, often times coming home and passing out on the floor where my brother and I played. My brother like my mother is a type 1 diabetic, and throughout my life he has been the one person I both loved and defended all throughout. Eventually I started living with my grandmother by my dads side of the family. As a teen we argued and things got worse for the rest of my family. Mom had a stroke and got busted for her drugs, dad got another DUI, and now my brother was living with me and grandmom. Later on my dad came into the picture and it would be years before I heard from my mother again.

Then grandmom died in 2007. Shortly after my dad got yet another DUI and after a few moves I ended up in foster care. Things changed for the better for me as a person. I lost weight, gained an interest in school, and generally became a decent person compared to my previous teen years of self-entitlement, lying, stealing and so on. After graduating high school and leaving foster care, I came back to the land my grandmother left me. 2.5 acres, it was a mess, but it was still my childhood and only home. On a little portion of that land was a second trailer, my grandmother was a landlord using it and so I became one too. I should have saved money and gotten a job, but I was afraid I wouldn’t focus on college if I did get a job. Then I ended up with my current renter.

Apparently she was arrested today (August 17th 2017) for violating her parole. The reason this matters if because I hadn’t saved any money, so when she started paying me less and giving IOU’s I had no choice but to deal with the lesser pay. Now there is no pay and I have no clue for how long. I took a photo of my land taxes (2 years total) and my current electric bill. There is also a $4,000 college loan I’ll have to start paying off soon but I have no documentation. I never wanted to get such a loan but I had to once my land taxes for the previous years needed to be payed or else I’d lose whatever needed to pay it off.

So I’m asking for whatever you can give. I want to pay off my debts, somehow find a friend who can drive me to a job (I forgot to mention I’d been relying on friends to drive me to college and such since February 2015 as my car died in the winter) and kick out my renter without worrying if I’ll need money to pay my electric bill. If you want a specific number, I’ll be happy with just the $114 to pay my electric. If you can give more, I’ll gladly accept. I want to turn my life around, not lose it while its barely begun.

Thanks again, even if you don’t donate but simply took the time to read this.

To Whom This May Concern,

I’m not sure if this will get read, or if I’ll even get a reply. But I need help.. I’m 21 years old and am currently struggling to get myself out of debt. I spent 6 months living in a beautiful mountain town with my best friend and it was the most surreal experience of my entire life. However, bills began piling up and we ended up being forced to move back home. I have been working full time and part time to try and pay off the debts I managed to acquire. I have a bank account that is overdrawn $3,6oo which has now been sent to collections, and a maxed out credit card at $3,500. My personal bank account is overdrawn $1,100. Between paying rent, electricity bills, gas and insurance for my car, and getting my cat the things he needs I can’t seem to get my head above water. I feel like I’m drowning.. I don’t know if this site is real or if anyone will ever respond but at this point it’s worth a shot. I didn’t want the best experience of my life to become the biggest burden but it seems to have turned out that way. If you do choose to help out, any little bit helps and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you are real and you just choose not to help me, keep on doing what you’re doing because there are tons of people like me that just can’t seem to get a handle on things. You’re amazing. I have attached my favourite picture that I took while living there, and my paypal.me link is at the bottom. Again, thank you to whoever this is with or without contribution. You are one in a million.

I’m not just another person looking for a free hand out. I’m a 35 year old severely disabled Woman who has literally given up all hope on ever being able to live a normal life. I suffer daily from an unknown Siezure Disorder, PTSD, Depression and Anxiety, and panic attacks. I cannot function. I’ve been this way for over 20 years. There’s many possibilities of what started these. Most prominent one is I was over-medicated by Kaiser on medications which are not supposed to be mixed. They refuse to take me off medication and condition has worsened over the years. I’ve been denied Social Security for years. They say it’s because of my intelligence. I am smart but I have a broken body. I live off $220 a month from Welfare. $190 in food stamps from Welfare. I receive Medi-cal. Have seen thousands of neurologist and specialists who can’t help me. I’m suppose to see an epileptologist. Medi-cal unfortunately will not cover that doctor. So I can’t see the person I need to see. I am pretty much homeless. I bounced around from place to place. I have two children I’ve lost because of my condition. I can’t even keep my service animals. I’m in desperate need of help. I’m not one to ask for help. But I’m begging for someone to believe in me so that I can live a stress fee life and raise my children. Please help me and I will show you the real me. I want to make a difference in this world.

Good day to all those who will read this page and consider my plight. I am asking for you assistance no matter now small in raising some monies needed very urgently. Where do I start? In 2013 I left work to go on maternity leave. On approaching the time to going back into work my grandparents health began failing and being the only family member living in very close proximity to them and they have also helped me in the passed I decided to care for them. In 2015 my grandfather passed away quite suddenly leaving the family in debt as he never made any preparations for this eventuality. With all this issues faced by my grandma she ended up with a stroke in 2016 which left her brain damaged. She has not been the same since then. This year after looking after my grandmother on my own with two children to consider I decided that the role was too much as my blood pressure elevated to great heights and under advise from my doctor who believed I was heading for a stroke myself.

During the last few years after living a debt free life I found that I was becoming deep in debt to almost everyone around me. I was borrowing from “Peter to pay Paul” and it became a vicious cycle. I have also recently received a letter from my Landlady giving me notice to vacate the property due to rent arrears. I cant afford to be made homeless with two children. I don’t have any family member to accommodate me in this country as my grandmother was my only family left here. The utility company are chasing me for monies owed, my credit card is overwhelming and to top it off I was told recently that if I don’t seek deputy for my grandmother the council will seek to obtain it and then I would be cut out of the decision making for her welfare. These issues compounded with my blood pressure has made me feel physically ill not seeing a light to the end of this spiraling debt.

I am seeking to raise £10000 to pay all the outstanding including some monies outstanding for my grandmothers care bills. Any assistance rendered will be a life saver no matter how little it is. I would like thank you in advance for reading my plight and helping in whatever way you can.

My wife and I have lived in this cute little house for 7 yrs. It’s over 100 yrs old,but was remodelled on the interior and nice. The house sits behind a dog grooming business which she owns along with our house. We have been happy living there as it serves our needs almost completely.Her health now forced her to sell the entire property. Our rent was low in comparison to anything else.We are forced to now move. Even the cheapest apartment available is over $1000. My wife Nancy is still working at her job (over 6yrs), but only makes $14/hr. I have been on disability for almost 5 yrs. Due to heart problems. I was receiving a moderate check per month. Then a little over a year ago I became very sick.My heart went way out of sack, I had pneumonia, and had turned septic. I spent 1.5 mos. In ICU, 1 mos more in hospital, transported to rehab for 1 mos. My odds of living had only been 15%. I knew my survival had been made possible due to all the people that had prayed for me.I have always believed in miracles and God’ intervention.My disability check disappeared completely with no explanation. It took 5 mos to learn that rehab wasn’t covered by medicaid. I owe the government $8000 in over payment for medical they say.   Now our only solution is t buy an older mobile home that we may have a home forever. Lot rents are only about $600 which we can easily afford. We have a letter from our landlord now stating we have never been late once on our rent. I am asking for help to please keep a roof over our head. We are terrified what will happen. I’m 61 yrs old, and have few choices. Hopefully old friends and new ones I haven’t met, will help. Thank you. Bless you all

We are a family of four that is homeless. We currently reside in a storage shack on private land with no bathroom, no running water, no kitchen, faulty electric, and are confined to one room. My husband is disabled and unable to work. He receives S.S.I. which is $735 a month and that is what the four of us are trying to live off of. I was recently put off from work due to health issues. I was working at a turkey farm and had part of my lung collapse due to the unhealthy conditions I was working in. I have been steadily trying to obtain work but in a small town there comes an abundance of issues. I am trying to do right and provide for my family however in today’s day and age it clearly doesn’t matter. We have gone to every homeless assistance team we can just to be shunned away. We have tried going through realtors, private landlords all to be turned down due to credit. Section 8 has all denied us housing as well. It’s quite discouraging that drug felons, sex offenders, violent offenders, illegal immigrants, and lazy people can get housing, welfare, and other government assistance and people like us whom are trying to do right and work for ours are constantly turned down. Our situation is no way for kids to live but it seems as no one cares about anyone anymore. Unfortunately our friends and family are in no position to help. We hate having to put our business out here like this and hate that we have to ask for help like this but we honestly don’t know where else to turn. We have even gone as far as contacting the Virginia governor and both senators and have gotten absolutely no where. We know there is someone in this world that can help and is willing to help we just have to find them. We are not asking for millions of dollars just some help with possible first months rent and security deposit. We just need a break. If you can help than please do and if not than all we ask is for you to pass our cry for help on to the next person. In a world of negativity we have to stay positive and our kids help us do that. Through all our struggles our kids are still honor roll students. Their positivity and resilience keeps us going. Our oldest is high functioning autistic, bipolar, A.D.H.D. and is still positive that we will be back on our feet in no time.Through all our denials for all the rental properties we have gotten quite discouraged. As of right now we are truly drowning and no one wants to throw out a life preserver. No we are not asking for someone to buy us a house and we are not looking to purchase a mansion, just something small with running water, a bathroom, a kitchen, and hopefully a 3 bedroom so our oldest can have his own space that he needs. Unfortunately we live in an area where resources are scarce and its full of people whom only care about their selves so I’m reaching out to everyone beyond our little town for help. Please we need help!! There’s got to be someone somewhere whom can help, whether little or big everything counts. Average rent in our area is $800-$1000 a month for just a two bedroom house. We have sold all items we can including beds, tv’s, furniture, electronics, and collectables passed down from our families. So the total we are asking for includes beds and other necessities we will need. We own a beat up four door sedan that stands in as a shelter during hot and cold months. If there is someone that even knows of other agencies that might help please let us know. Thank you in advance.
