Emergency Rental, Food, and Bills Assistance Programs

How to get help with rent?

At times, many families find themselves homeless, or unable to continue to occupy the premises of their choice. This may be due to fire, accident, storms or many other causes, but often it is merely a problem in paying the rent. Illness that forces a breadwinner to stay home, or loss of a job; any and all of these conditions can put a family in need of temporary assistance to tide itself over until the members of the family find themselves again in a position to pay their own rent without the need of subsidising or other rental assistance.

Agencies have been set up in many parts of the country to help in this regard. Non-profit organizations, these charities, such as The Salvation Army, as well as some governmental agencies are often able to offer emergency rental assistance for families who are being evicted by a landlord, or who simply have no way to pay their rent at the moment. Realizing that landlords, despite the old cartoon imagery of a rich greedy person feeding off the work of renters, the vast majority of landlords are not really making a profit at all on the current tenant. This is only a stopgap so that the landlord may pay the monthly house payments in the hope of some future profit if housing increases in value some years later. If the tenant can’t pay the rent, the landlord may soon find himself in the same position with regard to the lender. Lenders do not want to hear sad stories.

Although these different programs for rental assistance may be available, much depends upon the funding at the moment. Some programs quickly run out of money and are simply unable at the moment to provide further help to persons in need of assistance.

The vast majority of families in need of temporary rental assistance are those to be found in the low-income range; seniors, disable persons and children are among those most often affected. Others too, faced at one point or another with a temporary emergency may qualify for assistance in these cases.

In most cases, those in need of longer-term assistance, persons who have not been gainfully employed for a considerable length of time with not prospects for the immediate future may not qualify for rental assistance under these temporary emergency programs.

Those more likely to receive aid are persons who are able to convince interviewers of their willingness to do what is necessary to get back on their feet along with the ability to do so. Since emergency funding is considered a short-term “fix” for a crisis situation, the grants may be only issued for a few days, perhaps to defray the cost of a motel room, pending the applicant’s ability to find other lodgings.

Therefore it is important, in most similar cases, for the applicant to show the interviewer the imminent possibility to become self-sufficient.

Most non-profit agencies as well as other agencies attempt to work closely with rental assistance applicants to help them with any additional support as needed depending upon each applicant’s situation. Often applicants are further given counseling and referrals to other agencies that may be more helpful to an applicant.

In such cases, any additional services rendered are free to the applicant in crisis. This may include lack of employment and such other problems that may arise such as medical emergencies. Most agencies participate in these endeavors as well as teaching applicants the processes involved in applying for governmental programs, immediate rehousing and how to apply for Section 8 vouchers as well as information about low income housing, and assistance in paying the security deposits that are almost universally demanded by today’s rental market.

Since the goal of all similar agencies to to render aid to persons in immediate need of emergency housing and other crisis situations, the funds issued to applicants for rent or other necessities is only meant to allow the applicant extra time to deal with the emergency. However, at the same time, applicants will normally be provided with support in the long term to guard against similar future emergencies.

If you have an eviction notice or expect to be unable to pay the rent in the immediate future, or even realize that you need to find less expensive living quarters, now is the time to apply for assistance. Often with early application, money may be available to catch up unpaid rent as well as other options that may be explained to you.

Assistance may also be available to help with the security deposit, the initial rents and even moving costs. In some cities non-profit agencies may offer other emergency assistance to those in crisis. These funds are normally paid out on a one-time basis. Depending upon the location, resources that may be in place for housing crisis families can be wide-ranging.

Potential applicants are advised to find the telephone numbers as well as any other information available to them and educate themselves about the different programs that may be able to help with emergency assistance.

Not only non-profit private agencies, but many governmental agencies, are able to provide interim assistance, depending on the locality. Massachusetts has a program called RAFT, while in Texas a rental assistance program called TDHCA is available. Florida has a similar program called EFAHP and in Connecticut their program is called RAP. Many other government programs around the country also offer assistance to pay rent or a portion of overdue rent in their ongoing efforts to reduce the growing threat of homelessness in their particular communities.

Another program, called the Federal Stimulus Program is a little-known program through which our federal government provides billions of dollars across the nation to provide rental assistance for qualified applicants. These funds have become invaluable to families that find it increasingly difficult to keep up with the rising costs of rent and other housing needs.

HUD the Housing and Urban Development, agency works throughout the country as well. A number of families approaching two million are able to use this program, a program that can not only help those in need to pay their rent and/or security deposits, but HUD can issue vouchers to provide temporary housing as well as providing assistance to senior citizens and the disabled to keep up with overdue rental payments.

These programs not only offer grants to help pay rent, but the government Rent Voucher Program aids applicants to seek housing in the privately owned housing market.

These agencies can, generally, offer legal advice to those facing eviction. Every year millions of people receive free legal advice and assistance to educate them with the eviction process and their rights as well as responsibilities. The government provides funded Legal Services Corp. which provides attorneys who may mediate a solution between landlord and tenants in addition to advising tenants of their rights as well as help them apply for Section 8 or other assistance and another positive aid they offer is help and counseling on housing discrimination.

Counseling may also be provided to help applicants apply for government and/or private grants. Money is available for many of these crisis situations.

It is the goal of these agencies to prevent evictions wherever possible. The federal government as well as the many non-profit private agencies strive wherever possible to help applicants remain in their current quarters without the fear of being summarily evicted. Often these agencies are able not only to prevent evictions, but subsequent lawsuits that may be brought against a tenant. Alternatively, the agency may be able to find more suitable and affordable housing for an applicant facing eviction.

Many churches too offer funds that can help those in short-term financial difficulties. United Way and The Salvation Army are only two of the better-known charitable institutions that may be able to offer help when needed. Generally they give priority to those living in apartments and facing short-term financial crises.

A good number of other national and local charities are ready to help with the expenses of rent and other essential needs as well as providing case management and many other social services. No all charities have ready money all the time, but even those may be able to help by helping an applicant with information about other resources and assistance in applying for free grants to pay overdue rent.

Other agencies that often provide help might be, for example, Catholic Charities, Social Service Offices, United Way, the American Red Cross, the Legal Aid Society and as mentioned earlier, The Salvation Army. Aside from these examples there exist many other emergency aid agencies for those who are able to become informed.

While most of these programs provide only short-term emergency aid, they are designed for the most part to tide a family over until a longer-term solution becomes available. Often these same agencies will be able to direct qualified applicants to resources that may assist them in finding an apartment or house for more permanent security.

It is important however, during these times of crisis, to keep in touch with creditors and the applicant’s current landlord so they understand what you are doing and what you expect to accomplishment. It is important that the applicant be extremely honest with everyone about the situation and it may sometimes be possible to have monthly payments temporarily lowered, or even be allowed to skip a monthly rental payment. Other plans may be devised and put into place to avoid being evicted.

It is well-understood that not only landlords but other creditors too are much more willing to cooperate with persons who are up-front with them, honest in their discussions and show a willingness to cooperate and do whatever they can to improve with situations.

How to get help with bills?

Ask The Energy Company

if energy bills are the source of the hardship, then the energy providers’ own in-house programs are often the quickest way to help rearrange and meet repayments.

LIHEAP: Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program

This national program’s focus is on subsidies for repairs, weatherproofing and utility bills that families cannot afford to pay.

LIHEAP covers any energy related home repairs for low-icome families, including seasonal expenses like air cooling systems and winter heating bills. The local LIHEAP office is the first point of contact for those in need of energy or utility assistance. Eligibility varies from state to state.

WAP: Weatherization Assistance Program

The WAP is a federal grant organized by the Department of Energy that helps needy families improve their homes’ energy efficiency, and has assisted over 7 million households across many states, territories and Native American tribes since its inception in 1976.

According to the DOE guidelines, a household with anyone over 60 is eligible for the WAP, as are legally recognized disabled people. Most states make families with children eligible, and the website for the WAPTAC (Weatherization Assistance Program Technical Assistance Center) can advise others if the grants are available in their area, and whether they qualify.

LifeLine Assistance: Free Cell Phones

Americans in need of a cell phone plan but without the means to maintain one can get assistance from LifeLine Assistance‘s free phone program. This is indeed a lifeline as daily life and business in particular is practically impossible without a mobile phone.

LLA is an FCC mandated scheme offering a free cell phone with at least 250 monthly minutes included. It’s available in the 49 states, Washington DC and Puerto Rico, and typically requires a household income below 135% of Federal Poverty guidelines. For some states it is below 150%. Eligibility varies across participating states, with slightly different rules around qualifying income.

Other sources of help are available at state government level, or many national and local non-profit and charity organizations, and the energy companies themselves.

How to get Food For Free?

It doesn’t always require money to eat, and there are many ways to gain free food without adding to your debts or joining the 10% of Americans who have resorted to shoplifting. Ask people you know, or traders and restaurant and store owners.

Above all it’s important to explain why you are asking for food: because you can’t afford to eat. And not to be critical about what food you eat. Without a certain amount of money, there is no longer the choice of what to eat. So meat may become harder to get or if meat’s all that’s on offer and you are a vegetarian, it’s best to accept it with thanks.

Grow Your Own, Share With The Community

The most sustainable – and satisfying – way to provide free food for yourself is to grow it, and you can start with just seeds if you live in the country or with just a small space in the city. Guerrilla gardening is an interesting urban option, more organised community gardens and allotments can share space and expertise for growing, and seed swapping communities among gardeners are a good source of materials and encouragement.

Ask A Farmer

Out in the sticks there won’t be the option of stores and restaurants as a source of food, but ask any farmer and there’ll be some left on the fields that they didn’t or can’t sell. Many will let you pick these leftovers.

Food Banks

A rapidly growing movement in the United Kingdom and US is the organized and charitable distribution of food to those who can’t afford it. Most of the food is donated, and food banks are one of the easiest ways to obtain some nutritious food. Many banks have conditions for who they can give food to, but there is no need to be ashamed about visiting one.

Links to Food Banks in various countries

United States /United Kingdom /Austalia /Canada /Ireland /New Zealand /South Africa

Offers and coupons

Online and direct from the stores, many coupons are available to promote new products. And companies across the United States send out free samples of new products. They’re unlikely to provide a healthy, balanced diet on their own but could supplement free food from other sources.

Waste Food

In an affluent country there is an abundance of unsold or waste food, and a little social interaction and resourcefulness can unlock access to a surprising amount of it.

Ask at the market

Often around closing time, stall holders will sell off any remaining stock for next to nothing, and it’s always worth telling them you have no money and asking if they’ll give you something for free. You can often pick up some fruit or salad, and if they can’t offer anything, thank them anyway and ask at another stall.

Free Supermarket Food

Ask at the big stores and you’ll be too far down the chain of command: “My boss doesn’t allow us to do that” will be the usual answer. So smaller supermarkets and neighborhood stores are a better option, where you can talk to that boss. You may find warmth and generosity among Muslims and immigrants to the West who run stores.

Restaurant Leftovers

It requires some patience, a little nerve and a bit of practice, but it’s possible to get free, professionally prepared food, even a table to sit and eat it at. Restaurant districts in cities are obviously the best place to try this, and expect a success rate around 5%, so it requires persistence, but will sharpen your bargaining skills, and who knows where else that could lead?

Turn up at a restaurant after the busiest time but not too late, and explain that you have no money and ask if they have some left overs in the kitchen. It can help to have a container such as a plastic box ready in case they do have something, and if they’re friendly and can’t offer anything the first time, maybe they can put something aside the next day.

Searching and Foraging

It grows on trees, on the ground and some seasons there’ll be abundant fruit and tasty plants such as dandelions or chickweed. Even cities can produce some tasty wild food, and anyone near downtown Seattle has access to America’s first Food Forest in a major city.

Dumpster Diving

Growing media coverage of the colossal food wastage at supermarkets and restaurants has made it much less weird, and more popular, to search through the dumpsters in search of some quality food to turn into a meal.

I got robbed in Mexico and now I’m stranded

I came to Mexico for a job teaching English but before I could get the job, I had my purse snatched in broad daylight in the middle of the day on a busy street while passers-by just ignored me and I had to let the guys drag me down the street while holding on to my purse for dear life until they finally got it away from me running. The police caught the guys but then they confiscated my purse and everything in it for “evidence,” lying to me about how long they needed to keep it, then transferred it to a different police station on the day they said I could have it back, and so on and so forth. I’ll never see it again. I need to have the passports replaced, the French one and the Irish one; but those cost money and since I didn’t get the job I came here for I don’t have that kind of money anymore. I’ve been Couch-Surfing ever since then, trying to stay at one “couch” for long enough to replace either of the passports which are like 3-8 weeks’ worth of processing time because it’s “overseas” and they have to come from overseas like that. People here in Mexico don’t understand that or don’t care, just because “theirs” don’t take that long or there’s a language barrier or a cultural barrier, whatever. Needless to say there are no womens’ shelters down here if you’re not Mexican or an immigrant from a lesser country like Central or South America. I have no family or friends who could be called on by either of my Embassies because at my advanced age I’m pretty much financially alone in the world. What’s left of my family recently closed out my remaining savings account with £4,500 in it and hid the money from me and won’t send it to me any digital way whatsoever so that’s out of the question. That money is gone, that ship has sailed; it’s probably in Fiji by now. So please dispense with the “have the Embassy call your friends or family” rubbish I’m tired of hearing from people here!

 

I need like £100 for the passport and enough to live off of for the two months it will take, like £1000 or so. I don’t personally know anyone anymore who can spare even the £100. Yes, my sphere of friends and “family” is pathetic but I’m told that my family has always been like that. It’s because I’m the “educated” one with the Master’s degrees so I “shouldn’t” be this broke. But recently I just got out of jail from US Immigration throwing me there for trying to LEAVE the US before I wound up going to jail over something they made up and blew out of proportion. I have teacher licences in several US states and a couple of other countries, I’ve never been in trouble with the law my entire life in any of those countries; up until last year when I tried to leave the US I had no criminal record whatsoever. So because I’m a minority, US Border Patrol and the state of New York decided after 36 hours of searching my car and interrogation and making up stories about everything I had in the car and in my suitcases, no matter what I said to the contrary, they decided I was some kind of “terrorist” for trying to leave the US and wanting to go to Belgium or France for my PhD in Physics, made me some kind of “terrorist.” So now all of a sudden after 45 years of being squeaky-clean I have a 5-page “rap sheet” from US Immigration. For no reason other than racism and the Trump Administration. Treat every nonwhite person trying to leave the US like some kind of “terrorist” and give them a criminal record so they can’t come back. Fine. I’m trying to get back to France, not back into the Racist States of AmeriKKKa. But meanwhile, the government confiscated pretty much everything I had, all my computer electronics, all my “papers,” all my college and university transcripts, even some of my clothes, for reasons I can’t figure out. I got “worked over” for no reason other than I’m a minority – and I’m a woman, too, that’s what I can’t figure out; why they treated me like a MAN. Terrorists are MEN, damn idiot USA. They even said stupid things like asking me who my employer was, and I said “Teachers Without Borders” and they’d never heard of it so they said I had NO job. That sort of idiotic nonsense went on for the better part of 2 calendar days before I got thrown in jail.

 

So, yeah, I’ve been through more in this past year than any one should have. And I’ve had that same purse snatched off my shoulder 3 times in one calendar year and confiscated by now the “authorities” of all three North American countries, first Canada, then the US, now Mexico. I want off this continent!! It obviously doesn’t want me here. I’m sitting here in Mexico just trying to blend in and not stand out; because I’m dark-skinned I blend in better but I need to get out of here too. Just a couple thousand dollars will do; I’m not asking to replace my entire savings account, here.

A little Blessing. A Little Luck.

This is honestly about the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. For that reason alone I hope you understand how much this would mean to me. I moved into a new city not long ago. I brought with me 2 bags and a few hundred dollars. Instantly moving in with four adults and 2 children in a one bedroom apt. I set out the very next day after arriving and found 2 jobs. By day 2 I had 2 jobs . I worked focused and saved chipping in my portion of rent for the walk in closet portion Of the apt. I was very trusting at the time. Honestly doing very well for my self. Long story short. Four of the adults end up in jail. 1 luckily is a parent of the 2 children. I quit one of my jobs to watch these kids. Just because I was there. They had been through a lot. I ended up losing my other job because the other guy kept putting his job over his chilfren, me, and my job. I recently used up all my savings saving this family. And have nothing left. This guy I barely know is working full time I’m watching and raising his children and he is not appreciative or anything. I am 100% honest he does not care much for his children .I fell into this position having a big heart and now even if I wanted too I couldn’t leave I have no money whatsoever. I am honestly really ready to go. I am trying to raise enough money to start over and this time rely on myself. I would like to go back to school, drive my own car, and live in my own place. As soon as I have the funds up I will definitely reach out to these children’s extended families or if I have to cps. I know what these children deserve and they are not getting it. This is or was not my plan at all. I just couldn’t afford to lose the place or risk the other guy having a hard time honestly we needed each other to survive. I just honestly cannot raise his children any more. I have to be set up if I am leaving and I don’t want the children in a system unless they have to be. I’m doing my best. I could use a blessing I have no one to turn too. I would love and could use some help. So I can move out and do this by myself and hopefully getting the children in a much better loving family situation. Please. Just a Little blessing is all I need. A little bit of luck.

When Life has taken a turn for the worst and you find yourself wondering what happened…

The struggle is still real. Having your pay cut in half, falling behind and then having extra things thrown on top of it all just seems so unfair for this situation. I can’t quite understand why life has hit me so hard and with such intensity.

Anyhow with rent, car payments, insurance, gas, food…the bare necessities, I can’t afford to catch up and get right. My bank account is in the hole $500, my car payment is a month behind, insurance payment is a month behind and house arrest wants half my paycheck every week.

Rent – $725
Car – $315
Insurance – $160
Student Loan $75
House Arrest $175/wk ($700/mo)
———————–
Total $1975
———————–
Income $450/wk ($1800/mo)
————————
Result $-175

And that doesn’t even factor in food and gas to get to work and to check-in up in Scranton every week.

If anyone can find it in their heart to help me pay off the house arrest so it is one less thing I have to deal with, you would be doing me the biggest favor imaginable. The total cost is $1400 for the 2 mos I’m on it which for someone with no previous criminal record is in my opinion outrageous. They want people to do the right thing, yet they tear you down and make things harder. If I can’t pay my rent, I lose my place. If I lose my place I have no where to house arrest which means back to jail. If I lose my car I can’t get to work or continue to look for better employment and they don’t seem to care about anything except getting what’s theirs.

Anyone who donates would be forever in my debt. The amount of appreciation, love and respect would be limitless. I seriously could never repay the gratitude you will have earned from me. Thank you to anyone who even takes the time to read this.

God bless!

Help me have a home <3

My name is Hope. All my life I have been caring foe others and putting others needs before my own. And that is not a complaint, there is nothing id rather do with my life. I believe with my whole heart that is my only purpose. I work as a nurses aid caring for open heart surgery patients. This does not pay well, but my heart is overflowed with the joy of caring for others and paying it forward. This past January my whole world was turned upside down when I lost my home to dangerous electrical damages. Myself, my teenage sister and her 2 year old daughter were forced out of our home, everything we own is in a storage unit and the 3 of us are sharing a bedroom in my moms TINY apartment. I had to rehome my pets, which are my entire life, and give up my only home. I do not make much money but my paychecks are being garnished for student loans, im making payments on an old car that breaks down and costs me way too much money to repair every month and I am trying my hardest to save money for a new place to live which is proving to be a task. I have finally found a mobile home that would be perfect for my family. The trouble with mobile homes is that banks will not finance them so its impossible to get a loan and the price is too high for people who need them to hand over in cash. This home is 12,500 dollars, of which I have 1,200 dollars to contribute. Ive never felt such loss as the moment I realized I dont have a home. If anyone could help, my life would be changed forever. I look forward to the day, I can give back to families and people in need.

In need of help

I am in need of funds to move. It’s an emergency situation. I just moved into a house a little over a month ago and soon discovered the plumbing doesn’t work nor does the heat. The pic I took is of the toilet backed up into the bathtub. I know it’s disgusting but this is what I am dealing with. The house was so cold a week ago that I  could see my breath. My family member owns this house and can’t afford to fix it so I need to get out of here. The problem is my finances haven’t even recovered from this move and now I have to move again. I have very little money and need about 3 thousand dollars to move and catch up all my bills. I also paid a plumber to come out twice which took a lot of my funds. I feel strange asking for help because I’m usually the one who is able to help others so I am hoping and praying my generosity comes back to me. Not that I think I’m owed it. I don’t expect anything in return when I help others. I’m just hoping for some good karma at this time. I have nowhere to go so I am stuck in this terrible situation and I have cried to the point of exhaustion, so I am asking for help now. I found a house to rent but no money at all for first month’s rent and deposit and no money to catch up the bills. I know this help would get me back on my feet and doing good again. This house is truly a nightmare. I just want to be able to use the restroom without the toilet backing up into the bathtub. I want to be able to take a shower without it backing up into the toilet and making it overflow. Doing laundry also backs everything up. There are many other problems with the house as well but the plumbing and heat are the biggest issues. Please help me to be able to move and catch my bills up. I can’t even have company over here. I am a single woman with only one income but I truly believe if I can get some help this one time, I will be ok. I tried getting a loan. I even tried with some very shady, sketchy companies because I am so desperate but I was turned down by all of them because I don’t have enough credit. If anyone will please help me, please know I will be so grateful and humbled and I will definitely pay it forward when I’m back on my feet.

Finally got job…but it may be too late

I have spent 3 years looking for a job. We were barely able to make ends meet with my wife’s paycheck and help from family, but not without going into severe debt. Finally, I landed a job, which begins next week.

The day we found out about my job, we had half an hour of happiness. That’s when we found out that my wife’s job was being eliminated.

We need $5,500 to get to ground zero. That is the line between immediate sinking and swimming. Our rent is $1200, and we are 3 months behind. Our electric bill is $500 behind, and we have a $1200 gas bill. Those are in danger of being cut off at any time. We have cut back on everything to survive, and the stress of living this way has taken a toll on our health. Our marriage is, thankfully, strong. We face this together.

Currently I have two shirts that are suitable for my new job, and one pair of pants. I can make that work until I get paid. My first check should be enough to cover half of next months rent. There will be no lunch until I get paid, but I have dealt with that before. It will cost me $25 a week to get to work and back, which means I need $50.00 to get me through until my first paycheck. I’m sure I can get a friend to front that. We are eating what we can afford.

Our monthly expenses, for two people, comes to around $3,000. My job will gross $1,120 per month for the first six months. After that I would make $35,000 per year. If we could get $10,000, it would give us the ability to get rid of a couple of monthly payments, which would lower our monthly costs by $500 and a give us a month for my wife to find a job.

We have been on a ten year stretch of incredibly bad luck, beginning with an accident that left my wife in chronic pain. Her prescriptions are $100 a month with the insurance she had been receiving through her work. We don’t know what that will rise to now. I have been struggling with severe clinical depression for decades, exacerbated by my employment situation and my inability to do anything about my wife’s pain.

This request is not an attempt to get us above water. We don’t expect that, and we are resigned to a long struggle. It is a sincere plea to for help to exist for the next couple of months, with a roof, electricity and hot water. There is light at the end of the tunnel. We are so close to it. But if we don’t get to it our lives are going to continue to spiral down, and the light will dim and fade away.

Thank you for your time. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

I just need my phone cut on

I’m a 22 year old kid who wanted to get out and away from his abusive mother. But at the time I didn’t have the foresight to see that she would be vindictive enough to run up a bill in an attempt to get back at me. She has always been this unstable and that’s why i left. I want to get my little brothers out of there too but I’m still stuck in this rut she created.

 

She bought a bunch of phones and stuff, charged it to the account and now our phones are conpletely off. I only need to pay the past due to get it back on but I don’t have enough to get it done. I’m bouncing from wifi to wifi so I can keep on the grid but without my phone if I get stuck somewhwre I’m screwed. All I need is the past due amount to get by. Any amount will help

Homeless as of 1 pm

Good afternoon. I am Katherine Preston and I am requesting a donation. I have acquired some debt from going to school and working 3 jobs put me into a new tax bracket making me owe the IRS $800.00. Within the past year I tried to start up a private personal care for older adults service. I catered to 3 families with adults who had violent disabilities.  Everything was going so well that I had started to save towards the debt I had acquired. Not too much $2,000 and some pennies. After the 4th month 2 of my clients passed away. From natural causes in their sleep. Which left the family I’ve been struggling with. So the money saved became what I used to get by. Physically and financially. After the second incident left me having seizures I had to part ways. Since I am not providing a medical service which is what they needed.

Being that I was living out of a rental car I struggled with making the decision. I owe 860.00 as of today they said when they took the car from me. So as of 1pm today I was officially homeless. Which leads me to this request. I have no one else I can turn to. So I thought I’d see if anyone here would be able or willing to help. Help me get it together please. Anything helps

Basically, I started university in September but my boyfriends mother died and I didn’t want him to live alone and because of the struggles he went through I left university early and moved in with him so he wouldn’t struggle financially. I dropped out of university and got myself a full time job (baring in mind I’ve basically worked full time through my education since I was 15) but the full time job I was working didn’t pay enough money so I had to get a full time job as a legal clerk (40 hours a week) then a waitress job on the side for weekends and evenings. After this for a couple of months I was exhausted and I left the waitress job and just worked as the legal clerk full time, the only problem was that it was minimum wage. Then a couple of weeks ago I realized that the solicitors were paying me less than the legal requirement so I took it up with the managing director and his advice was to ‘suck it up’ so I quit. So now I have no reference from a place I worked for 4 months, no job, no income and I have to help my boyfriend pay rent. I can’t ask my parents for money because they’re living on just 25000 a year for both of them and my two sisters, and I’m trying so hard to get another job but there’s going to be payments due before I’m going to be able to get a job. Please if anyone can help I would really appreciate it I am so lost and I have no idea what to do. Anything will help

Talented horse trainer needs help to save truck and home after divorce

9746.jpeg

My name is Trish “T” Muller I am the Trainer and owner of Rhythm 2 Collection Dressage.

Dressage- The art of riding and training a horse in a manner that develops obedience flexibility and balance.

Please help me raise $25,000 to save my business after divorce.  I am a talented instructor and accomplished rider looking for help to save my truck home and 4 horsea. If you have a passion for animals, a desire to help women in business or want to help African Americans achieve success in sports where they are underrepresented, consider helping me!

Below is a detailed description of me and my business.

My Philosophy…As a Dressage rider and trainer, I am focused on customizing my training to the individual horse.  Every horse is different, therefore the “cookie cutter” method of training is not an acceptable option for my horses or me.

My Background…I began riding horses at 7 years old.  I rode and competed in many disciplines including Western Pleasure, Saddle Seat and Hunter/Jumpers. Then, I finally found my true calling as a Dressage rider and trainer.  

My family in no way could afford a horse, let alone lessons, grooms or shows; these are requirements for success.  To bridge the gap, I was a “working student”.  A working student is the equivalent of an intern or apprentice in other industries.I am forever grateful to the instructors who mentored me.

The working student life meant hard work every single day. I am so very proud I walked that path as I now have an appreciation for the effort dedication needed to make it in this business. And, as part of my business plan, I will “pay it forward” to others in my position as I rise to the top. 

My dedication to excellence is reflected in the USDF Bronze and Silver medalsI earned, and my status as an FEI level competitor.  FEI is the highest bracket of competitor in Dressage.

My Goals…My business has three facets: individual success, client success and rehoming Off the track Thoroughbreds (“OTTBs”).  Individual and client success builds my brand and rehoming OTTB’s is a passion. 

My immediate individual goal is to earn my USDF Gold medal.  My long-term goal is to be listed as a qualified rider for the Olympic Trials.  And, my stretch-goal is to represent the USA at an Olympic Trials or Pan-American Games.

For my clients, I am looking to build our team of competitors by attracting individuals who are passionate about correct and compassionate training.

I target rehoming 1-5 OTTB’s per year.

Thank you for considering helping me.  I am truly at a place where I just can’t do it all on my own. I am working 14 hours a day and I just can’t catch up. I can’t express enough the good work our team does and how “right on the edge” we are of great things to come.I know this is my calling and I refuse to give up.  I start my day at sun up and end my day after dark.  

I have taken enough of your precious time.  I would love you to consider me for any help you may have to offer. I am a pay it forward person. 

As I say at the end of the day I am thrilled I kept the horse between me and the ground!

Humble hard working man ready to marry fiancee

Hi my name is James, and I’m requesting some financial assistance to pull myself out of my current dilemma. I recently was laid off my job that I was employed for two years. I was a hard working machine operator for a torque drill company. I really enjoyed the job and the benefits were great. I guess good things do come to an end. The bad part is I am a homeowner and have two one year old cats. My fiancee and I was supposed to marry this year but because I no longer have a job, my mortgage and bills are piling up. She is very torn up about it. I love her very much and I want us to have a stable foundation when we say i-do. I’m only requesting enough to pay my mortgage up for three months, to give me time to find another job. Fortunately I have other skill sets. I have experience in landscaping, painting and furniture assembly.  I also am a music producer, but because of work, bills and family,  I haven’t been doing anything with that. So if there is anyone who can help, I would be so grateful.

Mortgage $570 month

Lights $214 month

Food $100

Hardworking teen to support family

I’m 21 years old. Now I feel that my curiosity and thirst for life is fading. I’m so depressed that I came here. I had big dreams of becoming a successful fitness professional and helping others, but I cannot help myself. I cannot focus on studying because I’m thinking about how to make money to live. My father went bankrupt and lost his mind and then my mom took me and left him because he used to hit her until she became black. I only had her since 8. I just want to give her a house because she is old now and she only has me. If she is alright maybe I can think of my dreams. ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Also I love someone who is on the other side of earth which makes me even more depressed. Sometimes I think I’m nothing and I think of death. I think about him every day for the past 3 years. If I don’t manage to go there or go too late and he makes a family then I would really like to die. And all this because I’m poor. If you can help me make a first step Please I will become someone who will help others too (^-^) Thank you!

We are drowning in bills. We are trying to get back on our feet. But we are flat broke

Hi everyone. I have never done anything like this but I’m pretty desperate. I’m a 33 year old single mom of 2 boys. We all have health issues. I was going back to school because I wanted to become a nurse but in the middle of it I had to have emergency spinal surgery. That was my second surgery and unfortunately I need a 3rd but with my current age and health surgeons are weary. I don’t have the best health insurance either. Trying to get them to pay for anything is a nightmare. My 11 year old son is a type 1 diabetic, asthmatic, and has a rare form of psoriasis. All his specialist appts are almost 2 hours away and it’s taken it’s toll. My car has a bad transmission and it’s so low it’s really hard for me to get in it and drive it far distances with my back. I have approx. $40,000 in school loans and approx. $10,000 in credit card debt. I don’t even know what I can physically do for a job anymore and so this has been a really depressing and trying time for my family. My 15 year old has been having some health issues although thankfully so far not as serious or severe as myself and my 11 year old. But I can’t even pay my credit card bills or any other bills. I have literally $42 in my bank account. I don’t know what to do and I could really use some help. For gas, medical, bills etc. It’s hard to get a job when you are physically limited and when you are constantly at Dr appts. I had to move back home with my mom and now she is struggling to make ends meet every month.  I could go on and on but honestly the point it we are struggling and I’m trying to get back on my feet. I need to pay off some bills and get a better and higher vehicle. If I could pay off my credit cards then I would only have 2 bills to pay every month until I can find a job.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read over my post. paypal.me/tizlet02

Please help me…

Hello everyone. My name is Julie. I’ve been having some financial hardship and have no where to turn.

My Grandfather and My Mother both past away almost a year ago and that’s where my problems started. My mother had no life insurance so her funeral expenses had to be paid for out of pocket. I fell into a deep depression. I couldn’t even make myself get out of bed some days. Which led to me losing my job. I started to get behind on bills and I’ve been trying to get caught up but I can’t no matter how hard I try. I need $10,000 to get everything caught up.

I’m not normally one to ask for help but I honestly have no where else to turn. I can’t get a loan or a credit card. I just need some help getting caught back up. I lay awake at night worried for me and my children. To get my bills caught up and start over fresh would mean the world to me. Thank you for reading this. Please find it in your hearts to help me I will forever be greatful and forever indebted to you.

Please, in need of help

My family is in a bit of a crisis at the moment. Both of my parents are disabled and are not supposed to work, however my mother works second and third shift to try and bring home enough money to support us. My father is fully disabled and is unable to do much of anything and is fully unable to work.

 

I have applied to every job in my area to no luck since I am a “felon” due to a mishap lie that another student had made towards me back in middle school. This alone will take around $250 to get off my record, and our family needs another $1000 or so monthly just to pay all of our bills. (I don’t have the records of this myself, as mum keeps it)

 

With all this, I want to do everything I can to help but there really isn’t much I can find to do. I can’t drive, I don’t have any equipment to do work for others, and no one near me needs help that they’re willing to pay for. I just don’t know what to do.

 

Any help that could be provided would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you for your time.

In need of help

My two girls and myself are in need of a little extra help. My husband left us in February 2018. We have not seen or heard from since. We dont even know if he is dead or alive. I’m scared because I’m on a fixed income. I’m 32 years old. I have a Brain Disease called Huntington’s Correa Disease.  There is no cure as of now. I see 7 specialist in Sacramento  Ca. Or else I’d still be working. My oldest daughter is a member of FFA. She has a Goat that is to show in the fair this month. We are low on feed for the goat. We are out of gas for transportation… a few of our Bill’s are behind. I have signed up for public Assistance.  My car needs to have rear end suspension bearings replaced.  I don’t have enough money to repair our car or buy the required parts to even fix our car. I need this car to get back and forth to my doctor appointments that are over 60 miles away twice a month. I’m trying t better my situation by doing crafts and hobbies to sell for extra money. I’m placing ads online to baby sit, house sit dog sit, etc. I’m not allowed to work any more due to the condition of my brain Disease.  I will continue to look for ways to make money with my crafts and extra time helping others who are in need of a extra hand of help… I could also use any kind of support to help me buy materials and supplies for my arts and crafts.  I like to do wood work. Any help to purchase extra materials would help me continue to make and sell my art work to make extra cash. My family is and will be grateful for any any prayer and any help that we may be able to receive.  Thank You And God Bless.

My family and I are being evicted after filing a complaint with the EPA over the horrible living conditions t our apartment.

Hello. My name is Kristen. I am a full time student and a Mother of 3. My middle son is special needs and when we moved into our apartment in December he started having severe breathing issues. They were painting the basement directly below the apartment when we moved in. I decided to have this checked because our doctor made the connection that his issues coincided with our move. I went about it in the appropriate way as I was instructed. I filed a complaint with the EPA last week and yesterday I came home from another doctor appointment for my son over this to eviction papers. I called corporate and they claim the eviction is non compliance of my lease and I asked how I was in violation. I was told that I was required to submit all complaints through the apartment complex first (which I did starting in January). I was given a court date for the eviction set for the end of this month. I did contact an attorney for a free consultation. He advised that they are attempting to wrongfully evict me. The other advice was that he recommends we move one for health issues and two because although it is in my favor they will continue to find a reason to remove us. If I had the financial capability to move prior to this I would have because it has caused severe illness for my son. I graduate in August of next year, I hold a 4.0 GPA, but I need help. Please. I heard about this site through a resource center in our town. I just need enough to move, first months rent, and deposit. I have worked my entire life, I am at a loss.. I don’t know how to get out of this hole. I am trying to make my life better through education and so I can obtain better paying jobs. Thank you for your time. Please have a wonderful day.

A jump start back to life

  1. I used to have the simple things, food on the table, shoes that aren’t ripped or another pair, a nice bed. Clothes that aren’t years old. But ever since then. Things aren’t the same, money is always tight and I can barely pay bills. Now since I have no job. My life has been garbage. And useless. I need money to buy some clothes for an interview. A pair of shoes, and money to help pay for the dentist. My mother desperately needs to go but neither of us don’t have the funds. This website is one of my last hopes. And I hope you guys can help me. Because I need to get back to work. But I can’t look like how I am now to a interview. I’m too poor to afford simple things. Lately I can’t even afford food. I’ve been eating eggs,rice, and beans. It would be nice to be able to eat chicken, beef, and it’s been a couple years since I’ve been to a restaurant. I just wanna take my mom to one. Lately she’s been down. And I hope taking her can cheer her up. Thank you guys for reading this. And i hope my request isn’t too much. My goal is just 400 dollars. Less than that is amazing also. My main focus is for the job interview. So maybe around 230. I can buy cheap clothes and see if it’s job interview appropriate. My paypal is this:

Urgent help needed; first time I ‘ve needed help…

I am a single Mom of 2 young children in Connecticut. I have been fortunate to have never needed to ask for financial help, as I have been  independent my entire adult life. However, my life circumstances have drastically changed and I am in desperate need of emergency financial assistance.

I am a domestic violence survivor. My ex-husband (father to both of my children), had physically and mentally abused me the last year or so of our marriage. I had requested the court grant my children and I with a restraining order against him, and, thankfully, the court granted my request. Even though he was removed from our home, he has continued to make life hell from outside of the home. I have since been diagnosed with severe anxiety and PTSD. He filed motion after motion at court, with the intention of bankrupting me. He was unsuccessful then- My attorneys fees came to well over $130,000! I have always had a good job, and was able to pay for all of my living expenses I had for My children and I , as well as afford my attorney fees. My ex husband does not contribute anything towards the cost of raising our children, and, has been found in contempt of court numerous times for not paying child support.

About a year and a half ago, I underwent a 7 level spinal fusion and was unable to work during my year long recovery.

This past fall, I was able to begin working again, and was hired as The Marketing & Communications Director at a local bakery. I was excited to be back up and running, and, loved my job.

Approximately 3 months into my job, my ex husband came into my place of employment and intimidated the owners, demanding they give him specific details regarding my employment. He threatened them that if they didn’t provide him with the information he wanted, he would do whatever it took to make sure their newly opened bakery was destroyed. The owners were understandably shaken, and, ultimately decided they had to let me go- they had invested a significant amount of money into the bakery and couldn’t risk losing it.

I am still unemployed, as I have not been able to find employment that allows me to have a flexible schedule, so that I can be available for my children if they are sick, or have snow days, etc. I have Sole custody of my children, and do not have anyone who can help out during those times.

Additionally, I was at my surgeons office 2 wks ago, and after reviewing my CTSCAN, he determined that the vertebrae under where I had My fusion, are being impacted by the weight of the screws and rods that are keeping my fusion in place. I am Facing another major surgery, as the vertebrae under my fusion are impinging my spinal cord, causing unbearable pain.

I am terrified beyond belief by this latest news. I have Used up all of my savings and have NOTHING left. My checking account has $3.00 in there. If anyone is so inclined to help, I would be So grateful!

As I said before, I have never had to ask for help, so this has been a humbling experience, for sure.

A Series of Unfortunate Events

I have never done anything like this and never thought it would be necessary. I do not mind asking for help; I do not like needing help. My husband worked at a job for 8 years. The CEO asked him to take his vacation and when his last check did not direct deposit to his pay card he thought it was just a simple mistake. The company informed him that they were switching payroll companies and assured him his money was coming. They were lying. He never got paid. His position was cut. Unemployed. We had just moved into a new house out in the country. We had to walk to get cell phone reception. We waited for weeks on this money that never came. My husband was devastated. He was proud to have worked his way up to the position he had. We were so broke that we could not even go to apply for jobs. Our reception on our cell phones didn’t allow us to apply for anything online. We didn’t even eat for 3 days because we did not have a way to get anything. The landlords eventually came around and thought we were lying. It ended with us being treated bad by them. They literally came and sat in our home and refused to leave. They disconnected propane gas lines for “repairs” and shut off the water too. I didn’t know whether to cry or fight. Then, they bought us lunch. We were so confused. They ended up giving us our deposit back for leaving. We went and stayed at a cheap motel and started searching for jobs and assistance. Unfortunately I could only find help for people still in their homes. The local crisis center told me I could work so they didn’t understand why I needed help. I have a child and I was driving him 20 miles to school one way. I called these people 5 times and they offered me green beans. That’s it. I contacted a church and the preacher took donations. We got to stay in the motel for a week. After this I ran across a wonderful opportunity, or so I thought. 6 months no rent and I had to clean up the house then 6 months $300 rent and option to buy after that. We saw this house and never thought twice about the work. We do not mind working. We took 70 of the carpenter trash bags full of trash out of the house. We killed roaches with everything we could. It was infested so bad we slept in our vehicles for 3 months. It was hard but we made it through. Our vehicle was repossessed when we went to eat one day. It wasn’t supposed to be. We weren’t even a month late. My purse was taken during the process. I finally cried a little. 6 months have gone by and the landlord decided since her insurance policy on the house expires she is selling and wants us out immediately. When I did not agree she shut off the utilities and prevented us from turning them on. She got the hard work done and wants us out. We have been living 1 month without electric or water. Our truck motor is ruined. We are stranded. Our tax return was taken. I have 5% on my phone and I just want to get my story out so maybe someone will hear me and help.

I dont want to lose what i worked hard for

My husband and i are 22 years old with 2 handsome boys. we are very hard working parents with kind hearts. However being kind has its disadvantages, and it gets us in pickles that are difficult to come out of. We had gotten a car out for a family member and got screwed out of $900, because they just left it at the dealership unpaid 2 months. We were then going to just turn the vehicle in because we could not afford a second vehicle at the time, but we gave the vehicle to another family member in need of transportation instead,  they then blew the transmission and left it unpaid to us as well. After searching for a transmission and a cheap mechanic another member came to us needing a vehicle. We recommended the very cheap mechanic and to buy a transmission very cheap at around $600 for it to be up and good to go. However they took matters into their own hands and put it into a shop and had the transmission rebuilt. The charge was initially about $4000, the member just left it because it was too much for them to pay. Even after we told them all expenses will be on them for anything past the $600. We are now being charged interest and and have to come up with the money to pay the dealership to keep it current. the dealership has given us to the end of April beginning of May to pay the full amount or our other vehicle we have from there, which we only have 10 months left and the vehicle is ours and our only means of getting around for our jobs and children, will be repossessed and the $10,000 we have already put into the vehicle will be down the drain. i work at night when there are no buses to bring me to and from work. My husband works on his own as a landscaper and needs our vehicle to take equipment around. We are stuck between paying rent or the vehicle that takes us to and from work just so we can pay rent. A lot of hard work is being put into everything we do and it would be very difficult to lose it all. We, ourselves, are trying to come up with as much as we can but alone we just can not do it. Its very hard for us to be asking for help, however our jobs and children depend on this vehicle. We would really hate to lose it.

My husband and I are 22 years old with 2 handsome boys. We are very hard working parents with very kind hearts. However being kind has its disadvantages and gets us in pickles that are difficult to come out of. We had gotten a car out for a family member and got screwed out of $900 and then gave the vehicle to another family member who blew the transmission and left it unpaid to us, which we paid the two months behind. We then gave it to another family member because we could not afford to pay for two vehicles because we had originally got the second vehicle for a family member. We had recommended a very cheap mechanic and to buy a new transmission very cheap as well for under $600 for it to be up and good. However the vehicle was then put into a shop and had the transmission rebuilt. The charge was initially about $4000, the family member left it because it was too much and we are now being charged interest. The dealership has given us a month to pay the full amount plus the backed pay or we have our other vehicle , which we only have 10 months of payments left then it is ours and our only means to get around for our jobs and children, will be repossessed and the 10,000 we’ve already paid for it will be down the drain. We are stuck between paying our rent or the vehicle that takes us to and from work just so we can pay rent. We do not want to lose everything we’ve worked really hard for. We are trying to come up with as much as we can but alone we can not do it. It’s very hard for me to be asking for help, but our jobs depend on our vehicle. We have worked to hard to lose it.

Single mother needs help with bills graduation

Hi my name is Christina. I am a single mother of 4. In this last year I have lost my grandmother who was my mother to cancer , 6 months later I lost my father.

I try the best that I can but it’s not enough. Sometimes we go without food on the table. It gets rough. I am asking anyone , someone help. I also have 3 grandkids which I also help my son and his wife financially and physically. I know life is hard for all of us.

All I’m trying to do is get my kids through life. I have no help from anyone. When my mother and father passed away it brought all of my siblings to greed with there belongings so me and my kids pulled away from my family. Which I have no one to turn to. I know God looks out for us. Maybe he brought me to this page for a reason. I have lost alot. I don’t know how I get through everyday but I do. I don’t allow my self to have to many friends for I still haven’t moved on from my family who passed. I hurt everyday for mom and dad.

Need Help with Emergency Housing Crisis Situation and Rent/ Deposit Payment

Hello.

Thank you for reading my post and for your willingness to help.

I am looking for help to get out of a difficult, critical and stressful housing situation, and hope that someone can stretch a helping hand during these challenging times.

I am a responsible person, but somehow things slipped off the track and got stuck.
I have to move out of my current living place in just a few days, but ran out of savings, and have nowhere to go, and am unable to pay rent. Rent is expensive, and ranges anywhere from $800 and up per month. I have been out of work, and could not find employment on time before running out of resources to get back on my feet. I exhausted all of the resources, and have nowhere to go for help.
I need to raise funds to find a new place to live and cover rent, security deposit, and essential living expenses in order to survive during these difficult times and move on with life. Overall, I need to raise about $4000-$5000. If you can please help with any amount at your discretion, I will be very grateful. It would make a huge life-changing difference to me. Donations can be sent via PayPal only to: paypal.me/tafti

Thank you very much in advance.

Financial Situation

I am in need of help with my family, we are almost in a financial crisis, my mother recently just lost her job to boss who knew what the financial situation was and he still decided to fire her without giving her any reason, but even before that whenever she would do something to make her money example: candle business, it was always turn out bad, something bad always came up, she has 5 loans that she has to pay off, if we loose the car that will put us deep in the dirt, her loans can’t be late or her car note or that will knock her credit down 100 points, my mother has worked way too hard for her to keep loosing, for what society is doing to us now. seeing your mother hide her emotions and cry really does break my heart (son is writing this) she is always putting everybody before herself and it’s not fair that she tries to hard to be successful and society kicks her in the stomach, her not working is really stressing her out because she has all these bills to pay, my dad is barely working everyday so with little money that does for her, i just recently lost my job due to poor management and i feel really bad because i feel like i need to do something to help her you know and i feel like i can’t and i cry because i can’t bare the feeling her my mom being depressed everyday but hides it with a smile.. I F****** HATE IT it really breaks my heart. if there is anybody out there that can help us please do, it would change my mom and my dads life they truly deserve

I’m 30, my folks are dead, and I need money to save what family I have left.

Hi, my name’s Jackson. I’ve just turned 30 and things aren’t going very well, to say the least. It’s not a pretty story, but aside from bankruptcy I don’t know what else to do except put this out there and pray for generosity. So here goes:

 

For starters, I had to be adopted by my grandparents on my mother’s side when I was very young because my mother struggled with alcoholism after I was born, and my biological father wanted nothing to do with me. This wasn’t so bad as my grandparents were very decent, loving people and gave me a childhood full of warm memories and raised me to have a good head on my shoulders. They were solidly working-class though, we had to live in a modest home in a small town, and never had very much in the way of money.

My grandfather was a welder by trade and the breadwinner of the family, and he passed away from a heart attack in 2005, when I was 17. My grandmother was already in poor physical health and as you can imagine, this devastated her emotional health (and mine). Everything pretty much went to hell. We couldn’t live on her Social Security benefits alone, so I had to start working full-time right out of high school.

Without my grandfather to take care of the house, we made a decision to sell it and move to a different state, which we would come to regret as it was 2008 and the economy crashed. I couldn’t find work outside of a gas station and we were bleeding away what little money we got from the house. So we moved back to our home state a year later.

Things went alright for a couple of years, and I eventually found a full-time office job which I’m still employed at today. Then, in 2012, my grandmother was diagnosed with brain cancer. Despite treatment, she passed away six months later and I was left alone. After the medical/death expenses and all the fallout was over, I was left with very little and struggled to make ends meet. One unexpected expense and problem after another forced me to go into debt on credit cards, which is obviously a bad idea because of how quickly it snowballs if you aren’t careful. I was in my mid-20s and not careful enough.

At the same time, my biological mother had a medical close call which made her wise up and quit drinking, and we began to repair our relationship. With nowhere else to go, I let her move into my apartment. She was the only close relative I had left and I refused to abandon her when she’s making a genuine effort to be a better person. She was even able to adopt a dog, who is part of our family now. After resenting her so much as a kid I’m happy to say I love her and I want to keep supporting her.

Unfortunately, despite five years of sobriety and working on her health, her doctors have told her that she likely has liver cancer and will need a transplant. If I had a few years where nothing unexpected came up I could probably manage on my own, but that isn’t realistic – it’s just one crisis after another. I have no idea how I’m going to help my mom through this and stay afloat, and I don’t know what else is going to come up either. I fear losing her, and I fear bankruptcy and/or homelessness. So yeah, I’m desperate enough to write all of this up on a cyber-begging site.

If you actually read all of this, even if you can’t afford to donate anything, I thank you for your time.

If you can help at all, it will mean everything to me and my mom. My PayPal.Me link is here: http://paypal.me/JacksonDuncan

Thank you again, and God Bless.

Uni student needing financial help!

Hi,

I am an 19 year old student currently studying at uni to get my nursing degree.

I am in my second year and it has been tough as i have to pay for housing appenses instead of being in a uni dorm in my first year and expenses were not as bad.

I currently have a part time job to try and get by even though the hours i work on my placement can really have you tired and worn out.

I done a silly thing last month and ended up taking out a few pay day loans which i do regret now. I am struggling to pay them off and the lenders i got them from are not agreeing to an new payment plan and it really has me stressed and worrying at the same time.

My dad will not be able to help me out as i know he is struggling as it is, he was hit by a car on his bike and suffers from injurys that stop him from going back to work.

If anyone can help i would be grateful!

Many Thanks

Zoe

Trying to save my family life

Hello!
Sorry about my really bad English and poor typing.
My name is Žiga. I am 18 years old. I am trying to get some help.
Why do we need money:
One day my aunt was kicked from her house and we let her live in our house (she still owns a small room in our house). When she was living with us like 2-3 years, she was trying to get contor of our family life (I still don’t know why was she doing that).
My mom figure it out what she was trying to do and then the real conflict start. Then she started to be really annoying and she was trying to make us do something illegal (like hitting her) we never do this and then she was trying to sue us and completely destroy our family, she also knows that we can barely get through the month. Then she sues us, that we need to give her money for her small room which cost 24.000€ but we can’t give her 24.000€ in full pack which is in the law that if she request  full pack we need to give her whole amount of this money  and now if we don’t get this money we will lose a whole house.
We tried a lot of things also My brother which is 23 years old now went to Austria to get some money but its not helping us to much. My mom already has psychological problems because of this and I left the school for half a year to go working to give her some money. I will do anything for help.

Young and silly

I have always imagined that by this age I will own a car, be in college and have a camera to do photography.

(And, what I hoped for that I could at least give some money to my parents. Afford my mom a haircut. (She didn’t see a hairdresser for 20 years, I would cut her hair and she would give me a dollar or two.))

I am 21 year old from Croatia

I enrolled in college 2 years ago. It was the happiest day of my life. But It all went away.

I had to work with college to pay for rent. Many students do. 2 dollars per hour just couldn’t cover it. Thanks god for friends who wouldn’t let me be without food and my mother who grew vegetables in our garden.

Wake up at 6 – go to college – go to work – write homework at night.

I quit college last year. I started working as a waitress. After that I found an office job. Paychech – 400$ rent 360$ with utilities.

I didn’t complain. I would buy food in outlet stores with reduced price and would get some food when I was volunteering cooking for homeless.

I was good living like that. Didn’t have much but I knew that one day I will start photography, start my bussines or move to another country.

It is a bit tricky because you depend on job – you can’t quit because you are wraped up in all things and worries that having a job solves.

Three months ago I got pregnant – with man I love. I was happy. Never thinking about child before – but I was as happy to see positive result on pregnancy test as I was when I enrolled college. I had not just morning sickness but all day sickness.

I told my boss and got fired.

No job – no money – no money to pay rent. I have an apartment contract for 6 more months.

I got depressed. Pregnant without a job. Coming from poor family. Stress caused me spontaneus abortion. Or maybe something else caused it. But any woman who felt that joy of being pregnant and than lost it knows it is not easy to cope with that.

First time in my life I know what real depression feels like.

I got out of it, I think. Much better now and have job interview tommorow.

Again I will have some money coming. But not until next month when you get paid.

I managed to pay last month borrowing from friends and giving english lessons. This month I paid only one part with credit card.

I need now to pay for April. I don’t have any money in my wallet. I look forward to coins I find on the floor.

Now I need to pay off my credit card by 3.4 200 $ and to pay rent 350$ for April by 8.4. And to pay back my firends 350$. I need to pay one part of my rent 200$ from previous month as I didn’t manage to.

My bank blocked me until I pay back. And my friends want to see their money.

I don’t know how to get out of this situation. Please, if you have a dollar extra donate and help me.

I feel really helpless because I am in this situation. I looked for help everywhere.

(I volunteer at least once a week. I try to do good. I run an instagram profile to promote animal rights.)

But soon I will start working and future will be better. I only need to remove this baggage from my shoulders so I can breathe. I am 21. I just want a decent life.

(I don’t know what to take picture of as I don’t get check from landlord but I have one from bank – I blurred for personal info)

All in all I need 1100$. Just so I can move on.

Praying for a change

My name is Khloe I am a 33 year old single mother of 4 of the most beautiful children. I am truly blessed every day with the unconditional love that comes with being a mum.

I have a 14 year old son, a 10 year old daughter, a 7 year old son and a 6 month old baby boy.

We are in accommodation for women and children who have come from Domestic violent relationships. This accommodation is only temporary and we have to find our own rental property.

Finding a rental property is not the problem. There’s plenty of them around.

Our problem is having the money to be able to move into a rental property.

Due to the circumstances that surrounded us ending up in the situation we are in we have no furniture, no car, no house… We vurtuvirt each have a small suitcase with some clothes and that is it.

My children’s father was a very violent and abusive man in the 15 years we were together. I suffered numerous broken bones, fractures and bruises. My children suffered some physical abuse but mostly mental abuse. It was only a matter of time before he did something worse.

We need to be able to pay for the bond on a rental property and buy some furniture.

I would like to be able to buy a cheap car as well

Any help would be a blessing and we wiuwo be forever grateful for your kindness.

We just need a new start. A place to call home

 

 

Thank you

Please help my little family from hunger

hi all, introduce my name Redi Noviandi.I’m currently not working because it is out of contract. I’ve been 1 year unemployed and have no income at all, I’ve applied for jobs almost every day but all of them do not give results, all my stuff is gone sold to meet the needs of day-to-day. I have 2 girls who are in growth, I do not want them sick because I can not afford to give him healthy food and enough milk. My wife and I have not eaten for 2 days, I can not bear to see my wife and my 2 children because my finances are now very difficult. My last meal from selling the television is up and I can not go to apply again because there is no fare, I am lucky to get a room for my little family, living with my sister. I am really frustrated and have not slept for 4 days. I really need help, at least $ 350 is very helpful u me for a month fee. That’s what I will use to buy food and apply for work, hopefully I can quickly get a job to be able to support my beloved little family.
Maybe for some people the money is so small in value, but for me that much money is enough to support my small family. I hope here can find people kind and sincere help me who are having difficulty in this life.
I ask if any of you want to help me, it will make me motivated to work harder and hopefully you are blessed by god and glorified heart.

Sorry my english is bad, i translated with google xD

When life gets rough,

Hello there kind stranger. My name is Shay. 😊 I’m 23 years old and currently going through some major financial issues that I worry will lead to many other issues… 😳

Long story short, I moved out of my parents home as soon as I turned 18 with, who I thought was, my best friend. My parents of course being much more wise did not approve. Being young and rebellious I chose to ignore them and now no longer have much to do with them. I can only blame myself for that though.

Anyways, things were wonderful and I felt so mature and proud of myself! Everyone was so wrong about adult life being hard, right?.. Well maybe until you lose some help that you didn’t know you relied so much on.

My friend got into some really bad stuff after about a year of us being out on our own. She continued to lie to me instead of excepting that I was there to accept and help her no matter what she had gotten herself into, that is until she tried blaming her own mistakes and substance abuse on me, failed of course, and then had no remorse for it all. So I don’t feel bad that she’s sitting in jail as heartless as that sounds.

Now I get to try to pay for all of our bills (Rent, utilities, internet, phone, medications, etc..), feed myself, and all of our fur babies 😿 all on my own. Fact: It’s not a large income..

I’ve cut back in as many expenses as possible. Cheap EVERYTHING, no internet or cable, no nonessential food or products. BARE MINIMUM! I still can’t cut it.. and my landlord is not very happy with me, but is too kind to throw me out just yet. (Thank goodness) Worst part though is thinking about my poor innocent clueless babies having their lives ripped out from underneath them and not knowing why I’m abandoning them.. I just can’t do it.. I’ve never wanted to come to this but I have unfortunately become desperate to keep my life afloat until things get sorted out in some way shape or form.

This is most likely wayyy longer than it needed to be. I just think if I can beg for help then I can make my life problems an open book. Or  soap opera more like it!

Thankyou for taking the time to read this. It means a lot. ❤

Homeless with 3 kids

Hello everyone my name is Shannon & I am a 34 year old mother of three beautiful children ages 9, 4 an almost 2 from NJ. An as of Tuesday March 13th we lost our home due to unforeseen circumstances an are currently homeless. We have applied to all kinds of organizations who offer help including but not limited to social services , churches , food pantrys , rental assistance etc an we are currently in the process of being approved for these services all while avidly looking for work. I actually have two job interviews coming up within the next 3 wks. I have no family an dont have many friends an the ones I do have either said they would help an then never came through or just ignored me all together. The churches gave us some food an diapers. an wipes an put us up in a hotel for a few days an we are extremely grateful for that but unfortunately thats about all they can do. All that is left for us to do now is sit an wait for approval for these other programs which should not take much longer hopefully. However that still leaves us with no place to stay in the mean time. I hate admitting this as I have ALWAYS been a independent person an I hate admitting I need help but I cant look at my kids faces anymore without wanting to cry. My heart hurts an I am physically , mentally & emotionally drained an exhausted. I have no choice but to put my pride aside an ask for help. I am looking to raise about 800 or so just enough to get us by with a place to stay an a few necessities just long enough until I can start working. So I beg you if there is anything you can spare an i really mean anything at all then please consider helping us. I understand times are hard for all of us an if you cant do i understand that completely. But if you have anything at all that you can spare even just 5 dollars trust me when I tell you IT WILL HELP . ANY amount at this point will help us in a HUGE way an we will be grateful for any amount of help that we may be blessed to receive. As I said this is very hard for me to do … its hard for me to not only admit to needing help but even harder to ask for it so I am not sure what else to say other then…
Please I beg you if there is anything you can spare at all…anything even a dollar from my heart to yours please consider helping my kids an I stay out of the cold please it would mean the world to me an once I am back on my feet I have every intention on paying back every single person who helped us. So please look in to your heart an please consider helping my family an I stay warm an have a actual bed to sleep on pls. Either way I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read this an I wish nothing but love happiness an good health to you an yours an may god bless you an your family in any an every way possible. Sending you all lots of love. Thank you and god bless ❤

Help me get back home for better healthcare

"64AE7E9A-0044-11E8-B384-53FB9B719BCB-image-dd01be94d1f0f2577be627b9b816e54e03a91d8ee86fa3871d39f59e6ea39c49.j</p

 

I’m Dirk, 40 years old, born and raised in Belgium but i have been living in Asia for about 8 years now as i always felt a connection with this part of the world and i also considered it as a place full of opportunities work wise and i definitely truly enjoyed so far until 6 months ago when i was told i have HIV+ As doctors tried to reassure me it’s not a death sentence anymore in this day and age although i still felt that way in the beginning and even now it’s sometimes still hard.

Unfortunately my immediate family always opposed strongly to my sexual orientation and after hearing the diagnosis the doors have been completely shut.

After i received the diagnosis everything else also came crumbling down one after the other:

– My work visa here of which 3 months back i found out that my employer never even applied for it despite initially saying they did but kept giving me excuses.

– 1 month later the company went bankrupt owing me almost 6 months of salary and outstanding expense claims and seen the lack of work visa i have no legal grounds to stand on

With all the medical expenses incurred, no insurance and the normal daily expenses that continue and no income for the past 6 months i have drained my financial reserves trying to keep my head above water but i will have to put my stubbornness and pride aside for this one if i ever want to make it back to Belgium. As much as i don’t really want to go back but i have to be realistic with the more affordable healthcare and with my condition it’s definitely easier to find a job back in Belgium.

For all transparancy please find a breakdown for what the money would be needed for:

Hospital/Specialist all combined outstanding: 500 Euro.

HIV medication cocktail for the (hopefully) remaining 1 month: about 300 Euro.

Travel back to Belgium: 700 Euro.
Overstay fine Visa in order for me to be able to leave the country: 500 Euro.

Basic necessities: 200 Euro. Past 2 weeks my dinner mainly has been cup noodles and leftovers from local friends but that’s not a good feeling cause i know how much they already have to struggle to make ends meet and provide for their family so sometimes its just water and some candy bars to take with the meds.

Total cost to get everything sorted and being able to leave the country would be 2500 Euro or 3000 USD.

Thank you so much in advance to everyone who would be willing to contribute or even when it’s just moral support to spread the campaign around however they can back in Belgium.

I pledge that i will post updates or pictures of paid bills so at least you all can rest assured that the money was spend as listed!

Thank you so much once again.

In need of money, guidance.

I am in need of money for food and to get back home, 2,500 would be enough to help cover costs of food, rent and plane tickets to get back home.
I came to New Zealand to meet the love of my life and to try to find our way in life together and to break out of the lifestyle our families brought on us. We are both in our 20s and trying to make it through and trying to find ourselves and where we belong.
I have been applying daily for jobs online and in person, no luck for me yet. My boyfriend has been doing the same. We want to go back to America where life would be financially a lot easier because I am about to start school in the fall, which I’ll most likely go into debt but that’s the only option for a future nowadays.
His family has abandoned him and they aren’t willing to help us, even with $20 to buy dinner.
My family has money struggles because my mother has very poor health and is mentally unstable. My grandma 70 yrs old is the sole provider now after my grandfather passed away due to cancer. That’s had a huge impact on all of us mentally and financially, we didn’t even have enough money for a funeral.
Life has been tough and I have had severe depression and anxieties due to traumas I experienced as a child. I’ve tried to make it through and get myself on the right track and I try to find ways to make my life successful but it seems when it rains it pours, I don’t know how to get ahead.
Any bit of money would help to get us on our feet, and help us get to a safe place in life.

Untreated depression destroyed everything after I lost the baby.

I have always loved my life! I enjoy waking up and having my morning routine. Turn on the morning news, make coffee, get dressed and pretty for work, get more coffee at my favorite coffee shop (biggby) for that needed grande latte. Go to work for 8 hours or more if they needed me to stay. My life might sound boring to some but I enjoyed living the simple life. It’s what made me happy. The only thing that felt missing from my life was children. I was ready, we were ready. My fiance and I both wanted a baby. We tried for a good 6 months to get pregnant. Being checked by our doctor, we were both healthy and able to have kids. We thought, maybe God’s telling us now’s not the time. We both went back to focusing on our lives and put the trying aside. One day 6 months or so later I get sick. It’s October, so I’m thinking I get hit with the flu. I couldn’t even keep down words my fiance would say! Yes, I said words! Everything made me feel ill. Hoping antibiotics would fix me, I went to the doctor and was correctly diagnosed. I was pregnant. It was the happiest thing I ever heard. My fiance and I were so excited about becoming parents. I found the best baby doctor ever! Everything I googled was about pregnancy and the baby. Most conversations had were about the baby. The pregnancy was going smoothly the first 3 months. In my 11th week I had some sharp abdominal pain and became worried about my baby. The doctors did some testing and found out a had a small benign tumor in my uterus. I had one doctor recommend we do a procedure that would get rid of the tumor saftly. Being 3 months pregnant and scared of anything happening to our baby, I researched the procedure that doctor spoke of. Wow! I couldn’t believe what I was reading! This procedure is not recommended for woman of childbearing age because there’s a high chance of infertility. I get a 2nd opinion and let’s just say I found a new doctor. We kept an eye on the tumor but the location wasn’t anything to worry about. Fast forward to my 2nd trimester. I’m 22 weeks pregnant. I was experiencing the worst heart burn/gas. It felt like my insides were on fire. Never felt pain like this ever. 1st sign that I should have worried more about. I was still experiencing spotting. Because it wasn’t bright red I thought after to talking to other mommies I was fine. 2nd sign I should have worried about. My fiance and I had sex and there was bright red blood after intercourse. I really wanted to go get checked but my fiance calmed me down and looked online to see if we should be worried. Neither of us seen the blood during intercourse only afterwards so according to what we read the baby was fine. 3rd sign I shouldn’t have ignored. At the beginning of week 23 we had an appointment and got to find out the gender. We were so excited for this day! My fiance is a very important person at his job so he had to go and work. This was such an exciting day I cried before I even got to the doctors. So the doctor comes in and we’re chatting about baby names and her children while she put the jelly on. I’m sitting there smiling still talking because I was very excited but her whole mood changes and she becomes quiet. The room became so quiet I could hear my ears ring and my vision slow down. I became frantic. I repeatedly asked her if everything was okay. My head was spinning so much, it felt like a lifetime before I got an answer. She said she had to redo or restart something because we couldn’t hear the heartbeat. She left the room and came back in with the nurse and tried rubbing the wand on my belly again. The nurse began stroking my head and back to console me. Our baby had no heartbeat. The pain I experienced at that moment something I’ve never felt before. I seriously felt my entire world cave in. The doctor tells me I have to go to the ER and that the ambulance would be there soon. I hardly remember the ride there. I could only think of how badly I wanted to hold my baby. I felt so alone. My fiance wasn’t there yet so I sat for an hour alone blaming myself and feeling so sad my baby didn’t make it. It took about an hour or more for the doctor to see me. He let me know he was sorry about my loss and began to explain what happens from here on out. He said the baby only measured to be 18 weeks. I was supposed to be 22 weeks along. He was unsure if my doctor and I had my conception date wrong or if I was carrying the baby after passing. He asked if I wanted to know the sex of the baby. We were going to have a little baby boy. After I got home from the hospital I didn’t want to do anything. I stayed in bed crying. I wouldn’t shower, eat, comb my hair or brush my teeth. I have never experienced anything like this. I wanted to just give up my entire life. I screamed at my fiance and threw things at him because he tried rubbing my back. My daily life consisted of thinking about death, while laying in bed. 3 weeks pass and I had to return to work. The first day of work comes and I don’t go. I don’t call I just don’t show up. I call the next day to tell them I needed another day and I’ll be in that following day. I never went to work that day either. I didn’t want to be around people. I didn’t want to deal with telling people what happened. I was already so hurt and devastated I couldn’t handle it. I didn’t want to return to the life I had before. I just wanted to stay home alone and just sit there imagining what he would have looked like. I gave up. Friends and family would remind me that what happened isn’t my fault. It’s apart of life and I shouldn’t stop my life because of what happened. I just felt they couldn’t understand. Why would I want to work when I just lost my baby. Well my fiance ended up leaving because he couldn’t handle me going through such a depressed life. So I’m feeling more alone then ever. 2 months pass and I find an eviction notice from my landlord. I forgot about rent. I let myself become so depressed I let the real world disappear not thinking about anything including the consequences that would come from my neglect. Currently it’s been 3 months since I lost the baby. I’m finally getting out of the depression and am currently looking for work. I am in therapy and started prescribed depression pills. I want to get back to the woman I was. Back to laughing and loving life. I’m being evicted from my place so I need help getting into a new home. I’m doing this all at last minute. My landlord called me today to let me know the sheriff will be here tomorrow to escort me off the property. I’ve always worked and paid my own bills since I left home as a teenager. I don’t understand how I got this low. Now I have to sleep on a couch until I get my life together. If you’ve even read this far, sorry for the long story. But I need help right now. I’m usually the one people call to help. I’m fortunate to find this website. If I don’t receive help maybe I helped someone by sharing my story. Trust your gut not Google for anything medical related. Also please know that depression is very real and very serious. Depression can happen to anyone including the happiest of people.

Partially blind woman left extremely abusive relationship now homeless.

So im in a bad spot, i left my abusive boyfriend of 9 years abusive. That alone was an achievement in which i didn’t ever see plausible. Currently I am homeless, I work two jobs but because I am homeless I’ve not been able to keep my kids they’re at my mother’s house currently until I’m able to get into my own place again. My mother’s place is very small and it’s the next town over from where I work. About 4 years ago May 5th will be four years I got a blood clot in my optic nerve causing my site to be lost completely in my left eye and most of my right eye so I’m unable to drive. I’m a very hard worker the person I left doesn’t give any support and is currently on the run from being incarcerated. I’m currently jumping around from place to place. On occasion staying outside to try to save up money to be able to provide a home for my children which I missed dearly dearly. Between my expensive blood thinner that I have to inject in my stomach do to the blood clotting disorders and my mother needing help with her power bill I’ve dwindled my savings to nearly nothing once again and I just don’t know what to do anymore. I’m almost embarrassed to have to result to this but I really do need help I don’t have much family and what family I do have is from Utah and Nevada if I were to receive help as stated above I do work two jobs and so it wouldn’t be anything that would be received and waste. It would be to put a deposit and first month’s rent on a place therefore, resulting in my children being reunited with me. Its been about 3 weeks now since I’ve not been with my kids and granite I do on my days off go there every time I work 3rd Shift and second shift at a different job. The total im asking for is about $2,000. That would help with moving in, filling the fridge with food. I greatly appreciate the generosity.

Teenager abandoned by family

Hello,

Wanted to keep this anonymous just down to the sheer shame of asking for money. As i have quite the self hating personalty clash with myself.

I am a teenager who was forced to moved out as my parents split up and both left to live in separate countries with their ‘new found loves’. Which left me in a situation of getting a place to rent whilst still only earning a apprenticeship minimum wage in the UK. being £3.00 an hour at the time.

To add further problems to my situation my car that i bought myself from my hard earned savings due to a lot of overtime has begin to have fault after fault and it’s just heartbreaking every time something goes wrong. I still spend my time living from payslip to payslip which isn’t smart but i don’t have much choice so i have no savings or money to fall back on for emergencies like this.

I’m not asking for a new car or anything abnormal, i just need a few hundred pounds to get my car fixed and pay my rent whilst still being able to get by and maintain a borderline healthy standard of living.

 

Please Help :(

 

Family In Immediate Need

2011 is  what I would call the worst year of my life, January& February the worst months. My reasoning for saying this is because I lost my mother,& ever since then I have literally been struggling to get by, & this time my hands are tied, and I have no where else to turn, so here I am saying and asking for HELP financially. I am usually strong and can make it but at this point I am worn and broken.

My mom was only supposed to go through a 15 min procedure (scope of lungs), to see if she had cancer or any other lung disease. Long story short during this 15 min procedure the time ended up turning into 2 hrs. My sister& I started to get worried. When my nom finally came out of surgery, the head nurse called us in and told us she wanted to be honest with us that the tools that the doctor used during the procedure were not clean at all that they were dirty. She explained to us that they also tried calling poison control & that they do not think she was exposed to anything but they were not for sure. Before my mother wen t in she signed a form that if something went wrong they were to admit her immediately, which they didn’t. The doctor also collapsed her left lung. They were suppose to admit her, but instead forced her into a wheel chair screaming bloody murder in pain, into out car. We had to speed all the way back to where we lived hospital, where they called the doctor who did the procedure and asked what was wrong, he claimed he did not know that it just must be anxiety to have her go home eat chicken noodle soup and shell be fine, but she wasn’t. The doctors where we live found the collapsed lung, later that night she had a french tube inserted to help inflate the lung, which we were told over those next couple of days that it was working. On January 27 my mother code blued 2 times within 10 minutes & died the day after her birthday on January 26th. We could not get her buried until February 4, because thats the year we had the bad ice storm.

After her passing we received a card from the doctor who initially this who problem started. On the outside of the card the writing was nice. On the inside it was so shaken it looked like a child had written it. You could tell through his writing he had a guilty mind. After receiving her medical records we found out that my mother had a disease called scardosis. We found out during the surgery thatm she had woke up and that he turned the anaesthesia up really high to get her to go back under really quick, we found out that the french tube was inserted in the wrong place so the lung never set up. Then there was talks of when she code blued that they really did not try to resuscitate her. My mother was treated worse than a dog. We also found notes that my mother kept that talked about how the doctor who did the surgery would come into her room at night to see if she was doing ok and was saying he made a mistake but never told her he was sorry. This was at weird hours of the morning as well like 3:00am. Alot went on and my family was told alot of lies. We tried to fight for justice, but was always told we needed more.

I had to start from scratch my mother really didnt have anything. At the time it was just me and my son, which now I have a 1 year old as well. I have always been able to maintain, but this year has just really been a struggle, and me and the boys are in need of immediate help of ANY KIND.

I am a special education teachers assistant for children who have severe profound disabilities, but the pay is not much. I struggle to pay the bills. I have not been able to get to work last couple of days because my vehicle caught fire. We are now without transportation. I am struggling to pay the bills, and we are in need of transportation,& last but not least would like to donate to the lung association in memory of my mother & to get her a headstone as well. I am asking for anything from $8900 to $17000. This will cover most to all of everything that needs to be paid. ANYTHING ANY HELP LITTLE OR BIG I AM FOREVER THANKFUL. SO THANK YOU TO ANYONE WHO HELPS ME & MY 2 BOYS. Anything can be sent to paypal.me/Gigi546

GODBLESS

I just want to help my momma

Hi there. This is my last resort. I gusss a cry for help. It’s funny I don’t know who you are and I’m almost relying on you, kind of scary! I’m a young girl, and I just want to help my mother. My mother is the strongest person I know. She has done everything for me and my sister. This isn’t the first time she has had to leave, but this time for good. She has never had the strength to leave a relationship, she has been scared for 20 years and just wanted to keep me and my sister safe. We’ve been hurt, but I don’t care about me, it’s made me a strong individual. My mother works unbelievably hard, she always has done and long story short I just want to help her. Right now, she sleeps in a friends house on the floor or on the sofa. I don’t want to make this sad and I won’t cry! We have been strong all these years and she has the most. She just deserves the world and I want to give her all that I can. So I’m coming to you. What do I have to lose. She wants to buy a house, she just wants us to be happy. And I for once want to help and make her happy. I don’t know what I’m asking for exactly, but you’ve heard my story. No one in my life knows even to this extent. I don’t know what I’m doing, but thank you for listening either way.

At a dead end road.. please help.

Hi, I’m not sure if this will work or anyone will see this, but I’m not sure what to do anymore. I am up late, unable to sleep & feeling hopeless. If you are reading this, thanks in advance for taking the time to do so. I’m a mother, raising my toddler alone since day one. I have worked my butt off, but am unable to afford childcare at the end of the month ($387) so I am home with my child for now. I can’t find anyone to help me watch my child. I have used all of my savings to take care of us. Yes, I have looked into assistance from the government, but it hasn’t been easy. I just have so many bills i’m behind on now & I can’t catch up. My vehicle also stopped working right..I was told it would be $450 to fix, which is impossible for me to do right now. I couldn’t pay last months rent so I am behind on two payments. Anything at all would help me. Anything. If there’s a kind person out there that understands the struggle of being a single mom who is drowning in bills, please please help me. I couldn’t possible thank you enough if you do. I’ll continue to pray hard & do whatever I can to make this better! Your help would mean everything.

PLEASE, HELP I AM DESPERATE

My name is David, i am 64 years old. Due to no fault of mine i lost my job 7 months ago. Due to my stubborn pride i will not claim benefits. When i lost my job i had savings of just over £5000. This has now gone. I can not meet my bills anymore. When i say bills i mean necessary bills. Electricity, Rent, food. Not luxuries. I have applied for over 100 jobs and i have had no luck. I believe this is down to my age. Employers do not say that, but i know it’s a fact. Out of all the applications i have made, i have only ever received one reply. If somebody could just help me out to meet this months bills it would mean so much. My credit rating is excellent because i have always worked to pay my bills. This will not be the case if i fail to pay my bills. It is not nice having to do something like this. I have worked all my life, paid all my taxes and NI Contributions. If anyone can help, this would mean so much. I don’t want to loose my home. If you can help, i will be eternally beholden. Thank you for taking the time to read this

Lost my family, please

I am Anne, and I just turned 23… I was studying to be a flight assistant last year, and then my mother who was sick of brain cancer died in January and I fell into a hard depression.

Then, my abusive father had nothing to stop him to make my life more miserable, and he started it… until I had to away in September, grabbing all I could to make a living. I have the restraining order I asked and trial is still ongoing. I also have the papers to show as proof.

I am in a low rent place, using all my remaining savings to survive while I look for a job, but nothing came up so far and I can’t pay the loans to keep studying what I wanted. Money is running out and I don’t want to end up on the streets. I put up to work as a petsitter, babysitter, teach to speak English and got my resume everywhere I could, but finding a job with only highschool in my country is really hard. I want to study to have more opportunities, but I lack the money… I can barely live at the moment.

Graduating on the dubbing course I want to do costs around 3000€, and I have somewhere I could stay if I could pay a better rent, with someone that cares about me, but I need to be able to help a bit economically in exchage of staying, because they themselves have a bit of trouble, that’s why I’m far away on my own, and living alone takes a bit of a toll on me, but I managed thus far. Even so, low rent takes a bit after bit from my savings… I even sold some of my mother’s jewels that I could take with me, but I have nothing else to save.

Please, help me to get at least around 6000€ or even a bit more to pay my course and study and live, starting over after escaping my abusive father after my mother died, so I’m without family. I lost them all.

I’m saving on food, water and electricity (I don’t even watch tv, I sold my laptop too a while ago, I only have my phone left) to survive longer in case someone finally calls me… but it’s not working. It’s been months. I want to study and work and live, please.

Thank you so much for listening to me.

Family in desperate need

Hello,

my name is Tony and I’m here asking for financial help. In August of 2017 I lost my job. Up until this point my family and I have been financially stable. After the job loss our total monthly income was reduced by 80% the money that we did have coming in 50% of it was allocated to our mortgage payment.  I’ve been trying to have my creditors and mortgage company work with me, but it has been thought to say the least. We have burned through our savings and and had to use credit cards just to get by. Right now we are sinking and I’m not sure how much longer I will be afloat. It saddens me to have to ask for help but at this point I don’t know what else to do. I’m struggling right now just to keep food on the table for my children. Is there anyone that would be willing to help? My bank won’t help and I can’t get a loan. I’ve tried every way that I know to raise funds but I’m not having any luck whatsoever. I’m really in over my head at this point and I’m scared I’m going to lose it all. Please help if at all possible. It would mean the world to me and my family.

thank you

A Family Pleading For Help

Hello All,

We are a family of 4 that is in some serious need of some help. We are about to lose our home that we have worked so hard to get, we have no savings left because i fell pray to scammers who made me believe that they were going to give me a personal loan and I fell for it. We are behind on everything and I can not get caught up on anything. Our electric will be shut off soon, we are almost out of propane and its cold here and we have used all helpful resources our county offers or will help with. I need someone to believe in me. I need a special person or persons to help my family.

We got this far behind and in this situation because my husband was hurt at work. He has worked for the same company for 18 years and was very loyal but it took us many many weeks to get any pay coming in and by that time it was too late to get anything caught up. Not sure how they think that a famiy of 4 can survive on $380 a week but that is what was allowed to him.

My boys do not deserve to have a life of misery because I was trying to better our lives and in return have messed our lives up. I was unaware of the scams that were going on and I should have done my research I know this now but wish I had this knowledge before hand.

If anyone is willing to help my family I would be forever grateful and I in return give my complete promise that once I am back on my feet I will return to pay it forward as much as I possibly can. We are behind a total of $9,645.83. PLEASE consider helping us. Help me make my childrens lives better if not for then for them please.

Thank you so much for listening. Bless you all that are able to help people when they are in their darkest hours.
