Desperate to Survive – A Plea for Help
I never imagined I would be in this position—writing to strangers, hoping that someone, somewhere, would care enough to help. But when life keeps pushing you down, you reach a point where you have no choice but to ask for help.
I am a young person, the only one in my family who is able to work, yet I have no job. We are a family of seven, all squeezed into a single small room, sharing one bathroom. Every day is a struggle to put food on the table, to find enough space to sleep, to keep hope alive.
The hardest part is watching my loved ones suffer. Two of my family members passed away from illnesses that could have been treated—if only we had the money for proper medical care. Now, others are sick, and I live in fear that I will lose them too. I feel helpless, knowing that no matter how hard I try, I cannot afford the treatment they need.
I wake up every day with a heavy heart, knowing that my family is depending on me, but I have no resources to change our situation. I’ve searched for work, tried everything I could, but opportunities are scarce when you start with nothing.
I am not asking for luxury, just survival. Anything you can spare—a few dollars, a kind word, or even sharing my story—could make all the difference. I just want to give my family a chance at a better life, at dignity, at hope.
Please, if you can help in any way, I would be forever grateful.
You can post this on crowdfunding sites like GoFundMe, BeggingMoney, or social media with a link to receive donations. Adding real photos (without compromising privacy) and updates can make it even more effective.
Would you like me to adjust anything to fit your situation better?
Please help me out
I really need help to get rid of my $40,000 in debt. Credit cards, student loan debt, and emergency loans galore. Every cent counts. Thank you to whoever contributes.

Help Me Get out of the Hole of Financial debt
First off, our family and our business is on the brink of total collapse. Everything was going well enough for us to continue making and selling our homemade jewelry via pop-up on various street corners in the Portland area and at storefronts to basically get by while at the same time adding to the quality of life for the people of Portland by offering our rare earrings, bracelets,rings and necklaces. Furthermore on January 18, 2025 our van’s alternator belt broke which was caused by an oil leak that made the belt go bad.
We had to pay for the tow and have it moved to mercedes benz of Wilsonville,Or. They fixed the van and the bill is an astonishing $13,500 plus the fact that we are in a hotel extended stay and have to pay $143 everyday and we just can’t keep it going without any transportation and work has grinded to a halt because we just had a snow storm and are snowed in. We never really had to ask for money because we’ve been the self reliance type and was always able somehow to get it everyday ( sell our jewelry) until now. Thi is just a small portion of our story and tribulations hopefully this helps us to get enough funding. There’s much more to our story i don’t think i have enough room to fit it all i just gave the most of the problems we’ve encountered in the last few weeks, we’re asking for financial assistance to get through these tough times and hopefully we have explained our situation enough to secure funding. Thank you and GOD bless
Urgent Financial Assistance Request: A Second Chance to Rebuild
Hello,
My name is Cornelius Wells, and I am reaching out for financial assistance as I work to overcome a challenging period in my life. After 18 years of dedication to my job at Technicolor/Vantiva, I was unexpectedly laid off in March 2024. While this was a difficult setback, I chose to use the time wisely by enrolling in LabFour’s Cybersecurity program to gain new skills and transition into a stable career or even entrepreneurship.
However, at this period of unemployment, I fell behind on my financial obligations. I now owe:
- $20,000 to the IRS
- $1,500 in credit card debt
- $2,250 in unpaid rent
These debts are weighing heavily on me, and I am doing everything I can to improve my situation. I have been actively applying for full-time positions while working short-term contracts and work orders in the meantime. Unfortunately, these temporary jobs do not provide consistent income, making it difficult to catch up on my financial responsibilities.
I am not asking for a handout—I am asking for a chance to get back on my feet. With your help, I can clear my debts, stabilize my living situation, and fully focus on securing long-term employment in cybersecurity, a field I have trained for and am passionate about.
I have always been a hardworking, dedicated, and responsible person. At my previous job, I was promoted to Production Lead within a year, and I took on IT troubleshooting tasks even without formal certification. I am determined to succeed in my new career path, but I need immediate financial relief to avoid falling deeper into hardship.
Any support, whether large or small, would mean the world to me. It would provide the stability I need to continue my job search without the overwhelming burden of debt. If you are willing to help, I assure you that your generosity will not go to waste—I am committed to working hard, paying it forward, and rebuilding my life.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story. If you are able to assist or know someone who can, please reach out. Your kindness and support could be the turning point that allows me to move forward with confidence and hope.
With gratitude,
Cornelius Wells

Seeking Financial Assistance to Support My Family
Dear Sir/Madam,
I hope this message finds you well. My name is [Your Name], and I am a civil servant in Türkiye. During the pandemic, I faced financial hardship and had to take out bank loans to provide for my son and family. Unfortunately, over time, I had to take additional loans just to repay previous ones, and now, a significant portion of my salary is being deducted every month.
I have done everything I can, including selling my car, but it has not been enough to break free from this cycle. My greatest wish is to receive my full salary without deductions so that I can provide a better life for my family.
The total amount I owe to the banks is $20,000. However, as a payment method, none of the commonly used international channels like PayPal work in Türkiye. I can only receive support through Western Union, MoneyGram, or cryptocurrency, for which I have just opened a wallet. I am sharing my wallet ID below for convenience.
I am reaching out with humility and hope, asking if you would consider helping me pay off my loans. Any support, no matter the amount, would make a huge difference in allowing me to regain financial stability and focus on securing a better future for my loved ones.
If you are willing to assist or know someone who might be able to help, I would be forever grateful. Thank you for taking the time to read my message.

Alone and Desperate
My name is Melanie, I live alone and have nobody or nowhere else to turn too. Therefore, I am asking you today to find it in your heart to help me out a little if you can. I need to come up with $3,000 asap.
My significant other of 16years passed away and I’ve been trying to make it ever since. It has been very hard. I did find a good job but had to quite not long after I started because I developed carpel tunnel. Surgery is going to be needed; however, I need to pay my rent and bills until then. I know that $3,000 may not seem like a lot, but it is to me. I have tried everything I could to come up with the money, but nothing has panned out. So, I am now begging anyone to please help me. I promise that I will pass it on and help someone else when I can do so.
Thank you for reading my story and for this site. God bless you!!!!!

I lost my job and life savings due to an accident.
Hello, I am here begging for assistance to get my life back on track. In 2019, I was in a job related accident, I used to be a Police Officer in my country. There are not alot of benefits but if you have the money you can get benefits from other insurances. I believed that the insurance that was paid mandatory from my salary every month from my work would have suffice incase of accident or injury but it was proven to be wrong. In February, 2020, I was layed off. I tried to get council to assist me in getting justice after 12 years of service but in the end I was unsuccessful. Now in 2025, I am here begging for someone, any one to help get my life back. I am a woman who suffers from chronic pain everyday. My short term memory has never been the same due to the concussion.Both my knees and back hurt more everyday, my feet are constantly swollen. I have never been able to get proper treatment for my situation but I have seek doctors help and they all just shut it down saying I need rest. After my accident I tried to work odd jobs but was let go due to inability to function because of my pain. Now I teach preschoolers. It’s a nice job and I enjoy it but the pay is not good enough to cover the bills I had while I was a Police Officer. I had a mortgage and a small loan that I am now unable to pay fully. I have been taken to court over the mortgage and the loan and a settlement has been reached. I now remain to pay $10.000 dollars. All I ask is that some help me pay this bill off so I can use my pay to finally go to a proper doctor to get help with my pain. All of this has made the pain worse because of stress but I am trying my hardest to cope. My situation may not be to bad to many but being in financial ruin over something you had no hand in doing hurt greatly. So I am putting myself out there and asking for help, if there is any more information needed, I will be very glad to offer it, thank you for taking the time to read my story.
Accepted a job offer, moved across country, company gave job to someone else
It sounds like a Billy Bob Thornton movie but it really happened. The company said I could keep the relocation money and offered me another position lower on the totem pole with less pay. I had to say no just out of principle. I do not want to work for someone who would do this after weeks of logistics and preparation.
We sold practically everything and loaded what was left in a U-haul before we left Atlanta to move to Reno. I am burning up zip recruiter, monster, linkedIn, etc with resumes and applications. I have had several interviews and expect a job soon, but I also expected to be earning a paycheck a few months ago.
God bless my wife. She is working road shows pulling 12 hours days for 10 days straight with just 3 days off before going back to another road show (selling cookware at Costco). She is the best thing that ever happened to me but it only brings in grocery money and a few bills.
Bottom line is that we are big believers in paying it forward. We’ve raised 5 wonderful kids, have 3 grandkids, and have been there for those who have needed a helping hand. Now we need one.

Last plea for help before I lose everything
I’ve never been in a situation where I had to let go of my dignity and pride to ask for help. But due to unforeseen circumstances, I’m now fighting a battle that I will never be able to overcome by myself and there has been plenty of times where I just wanted to give up… just to end it all.
It all started when I decided to take a leap and invest in crypto to generate a passive income. I needed to be financially more secured to be able to help my parents more than what I could, especially now that my mom’s health is deteriorating. But things went horribly wrong… I lost everything.
No one knew that I invested, and I could never tell anyone, this was something that I had to keep secret. I had to pretend that I was financially secured so I had to loan money from financial institutes to still support my family who put their trust in me to help them…
I started selling things in my house to buy food and medicine (I also have a chronic medical condition), and I tried to do extra work after hours, but my work schedules clashed with all the overtime I had to do. I eventually lost my house and had to apply for an additional loan to pay the deposit and first months’ rent pushing me further into unwanted debt.
Lawyers contacted me 2 days ago demanding payment… but I have nothing to give them. When I get my salary at the end of the month, it won’t cover all the bills due, and my new rent. What I have left to sell at home isn’t worth much so it won’t cover the loans I had to make, but it will be enough for some food.
I’m only a few days away from losing everything I have left if I don’t pay my debt. I would be incredibly grateful if you could please help me with some form of financial aid with my overwhelming debt of $25000. Any funds that I receive will only be used to pay off my debt accumulated over the last couple of months, including any back payments of accounts in arrears, personal loans and credit cards.
Thank you for taking time to consider my plea for help. I truly appreciate your kindness and willingness to support those in need.

I cant take it any more. Its too much pain
My name is Jimmy, and for almost five years, I have been battling what is widely recognized as the world’s most painful disease: Morgellons Disease. This relentless condition has dramatically altered my life, stripping away not just my physical well-being, but also my sense of self and my ability to be the supportive partner my wife deserves. I am an engineer at heart, someone who thrives on inventiveness and the satisfaction of fixing what is broken. Yet, in my current state, I find myself unable to fulfill even the simplest tasks. The pain I endure daily often leaves me in tears, and it is heart-wrenching to witness the toll this has taken on my wife, who bears the weight of my suffering alongside me. As I navigate these isolating moments, it becomes increasingly clear that I need specialized medical treatment that is unfortunately located in the next state over. This journey to reclaim my life and alleviate my suffering is not just about me; it is also about the love I share with my wife, who deserves to see me healthy and whole again. Right now, I am reaching out for help. Financial constraints prevent us from affording the treatment I desperately need, and I’m committed to doing whatever it takes to recover. Your support could make a pivotal difference in my quest to regain not just my health, but my identity as a husband and an engineer. https://www.paypal.me/jimmyb951
