Sorry for the graphic image. Well my situation started last summer of 2017 when my father got sick from an infection on his foot. We took him to the hospital and found out he also had diabetes which made things a lot worse. They couldn’t control the infection and he ended having to get his left leg amputated. He doesn’t have health insurance so my family had to get somehow gather money just to help my dad. We got him a wheelchair and a prosthetic leg. I lived with my dad but after all this happened he moved in with my brother. He lives in a single home with his family. I decided to stay at the apartment that I lived in with my dad. I had to take over all the bills. Rent, Electric, internet, car payment, insurance and phone bill. I’ve been struggling all year to make ends meet. This summer 2018 things got worse. He had an ingrown nail on his right foot which got infected and out of control. The reason it got out of control was because he didn’t have any blood circulation on his right foot so the ingrown nail was never going to heal. They tried everything but couldn’t save it. He lost his right leg as well knee down. Again we had to gather money just to help him. So my situation went from bad to worse. He’s my dad and I’m going to do everything in my power to help him even if that means give him my last dollar. Now I’m literally on my last dollar having to pay all these bills by myself. It’s a hard situation and stressful. I feel like there’s no one I can go to for help. Everyone in my family have to deal with their money problems. I’m behind on my rent and I’m about to be on my second month behind with nothing to do. I don’t wanna get evicted and I’m trying everything to prevent that. I live paycheck to paycheck. I just need help even if it’s a little help. I’m not a scammer. I can send prove. I am not here to rip people off. If I ever get the money back I promise to try and pay part of it. If anyone is reading this please help. I’ve never been this low in my life. Thank you very much and God bless. I have cash app: juanmartinezcr7

In danger of eviction
Hi, my name is Gabriel. I am a college student in California studying aerospace engineering. I am unemployed and have no steady source of income. The last two months I have not been able to pay my rent, and have been given a pay or quit eviction notice by the landlord. I have exhausted my own personal saving trying to pay off the amount I owe, but it only lowered it to $1,200. I have no other way of paying this sum. If I get evicted I have no where else to go. My financial aid does not cover my housing expenses. I have to pay by today at 5 pm, I will have to beg my landlord to give me more time. I am desperate with no other options. I am not eligible for loans because of my unemployment and lack of credit history. I have only barely started my life and I am already struggling so much. I am embarrassed to even be asking for money on here. I never thought I would ever have to do this. This is a very stressful situation for me on top of the school work that I have to get done. I do not have time to get a job because of my classes and club activities. I have not bothered to tell my friends because I am too ashamed of the situation I am in, and I hardly think they would be able to help me with the rent and tuition that they are paying as well. I have a plan to pay my future rent for the months that follow, but it won’t help me for what I owe at the moment. Please, anyone, I am in serious danger of eviction. If I get evicted it would impair my ability to go to my classes and I’d likely end up dropping out. And I can’t drop out, college is the only way I can make a stable future for myself. I waited until the last minute to ask for this, I hoped that I could find another way, but I couldn’t. I really appreciate any donations that anyone can make. If all goes well I will never have to ask for another donation ever again. Again I owe $1,200. Words can’t express my gratitude. I will link my paypal below, and thank you for hearing my story.
Sincerely, Gabriel

Experiencing a series of unfortunate events!!! Please help single mom of young autistic son…
I’m not sure where to begin, so I guess I’ll begin from about a year ago. I left a very toxic relationship of 18 years to move to Maryland to gain access to the extraordinary resources available for my youngest son. He was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2 and is non-verbal. Maryland is home to some of the best therapeutic schools, research centers and treatment facilities in the country. I knew if I was going to give my son a fighting chance at life, I’d have to leave rural Virginia and move to where he’d receive the best care. And so I did. I got him a scholarship into one of the best private pre-k programs for children with speech delays. I called and called until I got him on the schedule for therapy services at the top ranked treatment and therapy center in the country. I got my 7 yr old daughter into charter Montessori school. I’ve spent the past year shuffling around a big city with 2 young children securing resources alone. Their father “does what he can” but provides little to no support in any capacity. Fast forward to the past summer—The car that I received as sort of a “Palimony Gift” broke down while on my way to my on-demand courier job. I was subsequently fired for not making it to my shift. The car is still parked in the same spot (hopefully) because I have no money for towing or to get it serviced. Since losing my source of income, I’ve now fallen behind in rent and am facing eviction. The apartment I live in is not the best environment for my son (or family) to begin with. I have the most inconsiderate upstairs neighbors who stomp, slam, bang, and otherwise make loud thuds so much that my son covers his ears in shrieks. He once woke from a loud bang from above and started crying hysterically. I complained to the leasing office, police, etc. but all my complaint has resulted in me being harassed at my door step by the neighbor and her cousin and threatened with a drive-by. So maybe being evicted wouldn’t be so bad. But I still need a home for my children. And that’s why I’m here on this site. I’m in desperate need of funds to either halt eviction or move (preferably) and car repairs (possible head gasket). I have no one else to turn to as far as family or friends. Plus I’ve found that the kindness of strangers is more reliable anyways. So thank you for reading this thus far. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

The Fox Family
Please find it in your heart to read our story.
we are the Fox Family, here is our story. We are currently homeless staying where anywhere we can. My name is Holly I am 30 years old and my husband his name is Anthony and he is 25 years old. We have two toddlers our first born son AJ just turned three years old on July 16th 2015 and our daughter Miss Athena just turned two years old on July 27th 2016. We have been having it really rough for the past 4 months trying so hard to get jobs, we still to this present day go-to workforce development center to apply for jobs, it’s really hard to get a job in ironton ohio.. We got evicted from our home on October 1st, 2018. Since then we have had to walk up and down the streets of Ironton, Ohio all gours of the day and cool off at Briggs library and let our kids play in ironton. Our clothes and belongings are in Storage. We walk there everyday to get a change of clothes and food for us. I cried so hard on our eviction date because we walked out of our home and had to leave our refrigerator,tables, some kids toys, our beds, air conditioner, couch. It was heartbreaking so bad because our babies don’t deserve this. I begged our landlord to let us make payments and she said no she can’t. Many nights me and Anthony would sit up and cry because our little babies dont deserve to be homeless on the streets. Our son AJ can’t hear to well he is going deaf like me his mommy. Our daughter Athena loves to sing just like our little boy. There daddy and myself have went to the Ironton Ohio welfare office and they said they can’t help us with a housing voucher and the Ironton CAO can’t help with housing either because we don’t have jobs. And the Ironton City Mission only will let us stay for 10 days and then we can’t stay there after that. We have no vehicle, no house. We pray to God every day that he will help and bless our family and keep us safe always.
We really need help financially, and anything would be a blessing.

Help With Eviction
I want to start by saying thank you for taking the time out and reading my post..
I am a single female with 2 children facing eviction for rental arrears in the amount of $6,000 and wage garnishment for State taxes owed in the amount of $8000( NY State).
Over the past couple of years its been a downward financial battle for me:
July 2013- I was a layoff due to company downsizing. After the lay-off I was able to collect unemployment in the amount of $405.00 (weekly max for NY residents). The $1620.00 a month only covered my portion of the rent which was 1250.00 (rent 2500.00 a month) and utilities. I was barely able to feed myself and my children. I did not qualify for food stamps because my unemployment exceeded the allowable income for a family of 3. This is when my life took a turn for the worst. All my bills got behind and I have been trying to play catch up ever since.
April 2014 – 8 months after I was layed off I found a temp job paying 18.00 dollars an hour. I worked very hard and the company brought me on permanent Jan 2015. I thought all was looking up and I was getting a fresh start and I could catch up on my bills (credit cards, student loans, tax obligations, etc), but in Feb 2018 I had to go out on short term disability for Thyroid Surgery and in May 2018 my roommate decided to move out without notice oweing 5 months of her portion of the rent (6000.00). On top all everything that has gone wrong in my life now NYS finance is garnishing my job every pay period for 300.00.
If I don’t give my landlord 6000.00 on 10/2 me and my kids will be evicted immediately as per our court stipulation. I have been in court since April 2018 my roommate promised to pay the stip order but she just bailed on me. I tried to talk to my landlord but he want me to pay $3605.00 a month until the $6000.00 in arrears is paid. I only bring home $3,800.00 after taxes.
I am a hard working single parent. My children father does not reside with us nor does he provide financial support because he is terminally ill.
Please if you read my request find it in your heart to help me and my family.
Sincerely,
Internally Grateful
My landlord is going to kick us out in the next month
(Este texto tem tradução em português mais abaixo)
Hello, my name is Miguel and I´m writing here also in the name of my family, Catarina, my wife and Simão our 2 years old boy.
We need desperately to find a situation that prevent us from going to live on the streets or for some shed without any hygiene conditions. And this is because our landlord decided to put us out of home claiming that he sold the house to someone and we have to get out fast until the end of October.
In December 2017 we decided, after almost 3 years of deliberations, to move out from the city (Lisbon, Portugal) and go to the countryside. In this beautiful village in the deep interior of Portugal there was a permaculture project, and a community starting to gather to fulfill part of our dreams, just there awaiting for us. Things went terrible wrong and we have not found anything we expected, the person responsible for this gathering, and who we taught was our friend, turned out to be a mischieving person who just wanted us there to work for her. There were nobody else there, no community, and we alone would be working for her while she sat down comfortably somewhere in London just waiting for things to be done and then come to Portugal and kick us out of here.
Meanwhile we are here in this village taking care of our son without any help from anyone. We´ve been living in the house of this lady (landlady) that rented it to the London person. We have been dividing the expenses for the rent. Everything else is our responsibility to pay. But I am the only one who can work right now and there is almost no work in this region of Portugal.Well there are work to do but requires long trips to go to work and it has to be with our own car. There are almost no public transportation and the ones that work only do small trips once a day. I don´t have money to spent on gas this way because what I would earn would go literally 75% to support this travels.
I´m working as a waitress in big weddings on the weekends, and the money I get there is almost enough to cover all our expenses. But right now we have a small rent (we pay half of the rent along with the other London person) that allow us to manage things almost in a surviving mode but enough to have always food on the table. We spent a lot of money in gas anytime we need to buy something (we have to go to the city) or for me to go to work.
Conclusion: We need money to get out of this house, this village, and move to another house probably in the closest city and near my job, and where probably we have other possibilities to turn this situation we´re living into something positive. I´ve been sick for the last two months derived of the stress and anxiety created by this heartless people that we had the misfortune to be surrounded by, and the knowing that my baby can suffer from all this without understanding nothing that is happening. Fortunately we have the good sense of keep him happy and away from this worries but if we can not resolve this situation (landlady does not give in to her decision) we are going to be in big troubles.
We need money to pay the next rent plus the bond, it´s usually the same value. It means that the cheapest house, and with minimal conditions for housing a baby, that we have been researching goes around 300€/350€. That means we have to pay 600€/700€ immediately when we enter our new home, plus the expenses from the home moving.
We need 1000€ and we probably will have only 125€ in the beginning of October.
Please help us with whatever you can. Anything from one cent to whatever you want, or can give, is going to make all the difference for us. It´s just this we want to start putting our lives back into the tracks and look for better chances.
We appreciate your interest in this request for help and we will be forever grateful for your participation.
I wish you all the best in my name and in the name of my family.
Kind regards
Miguel
Portuguese Translation:
Olá, o meu nome é Miguel e estou a escrever aqui também em nome da minha família, Catarina, minha companheira e o Simão nosso bébé de 2 anos.
Precisamos desesperadamente de encontrar uma situação que nos impeça de ir morar para a rua ou por alguma casa sem condições de higiene. E isto pode ser possível porque a nossa senhoria decidiu nos colocar fora de casa, alegando que vendeu a casa a alguém e que temos que sair rápido até ao final de outubro.
Em dezembro de 2017 decidimos, após quase 3 anos de deliberações, sair da cidade (Lisboa, Portugal) e ir para o campo. Nesta bela aldeia no interior profundo de Portugal, havia um projeto de permacultura e uma comunidade começando a reunir-se que iria realizar parte de nossos sonhos, aqui á espera por nós. As coisas correram terrivelmente mal e não encontrámos nada do que esperávamos, a pessoa responsável por este encontro, e quem nós pensámos ser nossa amiga, acabou por ser uma pessoa maldosa que apenas queria que nós trabalhássemos para ela. Não havia mais ninguém lá, nenhuma comunidade, e nós iríamos estar a trabalhar sozinhos para ela enquanto ela se sentava confortavelmente algures em Londres apenas à espera que as coisas ficassem feitas para então vir para Portugal e nessa altura expulsar-nos daqui.
Enquanto isso, estamos aqui nesta aldeia cuidando do nosso filho sem a ajuda de ninguém. Nós temos vivido em casa desta senhora (proprietária) que a alugou para a pessoa de Londres. Nós temos dividido as despesas da renda. Tudo o resto é nossa responsabilidade de pagar. Mas eu sou o único que pode trabalhar agora e quase não há trabalho nesta região de Portugal. Bem, há trabalho disponível, mas requer longas viagens para ir trabalhar e tem que ser com o nosso próprio carro. Quase não há transporte público e os que existem só fazem pequenas viagens uma vez por dia. Eu não tenho dinheiro para gastar com gasolina dessa maneira porque do que eu ganharia 75% seriam para suportara gasolina dessas viagens.
Eu estou a trabalhar como empregado de mesa em grandes casamentos nos fins de semana, e o dinheiro que eu ganho lá é quase o suficiente para cobrir todas as nossas despesas. Mas isso éporque agora temos uma pequena renda (pagamos metade da renda junto com a outra pessoa de Londres) o que nos permite administrar as coisas quase em modo de sobrevivência, mas o suficiente para ter sempre comida na mesa. Gastamos muito dinheiro em gasolina sempre que precisamos comprar algo (temos que ir para a cidade) ou para eu ir trabalhar.
Conclusão: Precisamos de dinheiro para sair desta casa, desta aldeia, e mudar para outra casa provavelmente na cidade mais próxima e perto do meu trabalho, e onde provavelmente temos outras possibilidades para transformar esta situação que estamos a viver em algo positivo. Eu tenho estado doente nos últimos dois meses, derivado do stresse e da ansiedade criados por estas pessoas sem coração que tivemos a infelicidade de nos fazermos cercados, e o conhecimento de que o meu bébé pode sofrer com todas estas mudanças sem entender nada do que se está a passar. Felizmente, temos o bom senso de mantê-lo feliz e longe destas preocupações, mas se não pudermos resolver esta situação (a proprietária não quer ceder na sua decisão), estaremos em grandes dificuldades.
Precisamos de dinheiro para pagar a próxima renda mais a garantia, geralmente é o mesmo valor. Isso significa que a casa mais barata, e com as condições mínimas para a vivermos com um bébé de forma digna, pela nossa pesquisa gira em torno de 300 € / 350 €. Isso significa que temos que pagar 600 € / 700 € imediatamente assim que entrarmos na nova casa, mais as despesas da mudança.
Precisamos de 1000 € e provavelmente teremos apenas 125 € no início de outubro.
Por favor, ajude-nos com o que você puder. Qualquer coisa, desde um cêntimo até ao que quiser ou puder dar fará toda a diferença para nós. É só isso que queremos para colocar as nossas vidas de volta no caminho certo e procurar por melhores chances e hipóteses de vida.
Agradecemos o seu interesse neste pedido de ajuda e estaremos eternamente gratos pela sua participação.
Desejamos tudo de bom em meu nome e no nome da minha família.
Atenciosamente
Miguel
No where to go by tomorrow.
My name is Heather, I am a 31 year old mother of two young boys. My partners job is seasonal and has slowed down so much that we can barely afford to keep food on the table, let alone pay all the bills that need covered a month. Recently, he has started a new job in an auto shop but the kick start of that took a few weeks and it drastically changed our financial situation. It almost turned it upside down. We are at wits end with each other. I honestly feel like he hates me because I am a stay at home mom and now that we are struggling, it is my fault we don’t have enough for anything. Everything in my life has taken a toll, bills, family, and even my relationship. I have tried to stay strong for my children, as they don’t need the stress of a financial burden at such a young age. On Wednesday, our landlord came by and said that we needed to be out by Friday, which is tomorrow. He is not the most lenient landlord by any means but he is not expected to be, I am sure he hears all the excuses in the world of why people are behind on their rent. I have sold most of my expensive personal belongings and have came up with this past months rent which was 525.00, now all I need is another 525.00 to catch up everything by tomorrow. I have never been this stressed, scared and disappointed in myself ever. I am asking for financial help for rent and groceries, obviously rent comes first as I can visit local churches to help for food for the time being. I really need to make this happen by then end of the day tomorrow, otherwise me and my family will be forced out of our home. I never knew that they could come to your door and tell you that in two days you have to be out of the home. It is heartbreaking, and if it were just me I wouldn’t be as stressed, but I have two kids, and its hard enough keeping positive energy when their parents are constantly arguing. Please, I am literally on my knees begging at this point for help. I have no lifelines. I am asking for 525.00 to cover my rent, and I have worked up enough to pay for the rest of what I owed. Please, I have worked so hard but in such little time it doesn’t even matter.
Please Help Me!!!
Where do I start, my name is Jennifer. I’m a 43 yr old single woman just trying be independent again for the first time in 18 yrs so this kills me to have to ask for assistance. I’m a bartender and have been at the same place for almost 19 yrs. Shortly after I had to move and live alone again they cut my shifts down. I’ve been trying to find another job that works around my schedule there but it has proven to be more difficult then I expected. I’ve put in so many applications and most of them online because that’s just how it works anymore. I’ve had a number of interviews and thought they went really well but apparently it well enough. I feel I’m not hired due to the condition of my teeth. I’m more than qualified in my profession but most places want a nice smile to be dealing with customers. I was just offered a job so thats good but I haven’t gotten to start it yet. I’ve fallen behind in my rent as I’ve been struggling for a while now. My parents can’t help me. I’ve saved my apartment from eviction once already and now am in a 2nd stipulation. I had to borrow from a not so reputable lender to stop the eviction a few months ago and have him breathing down my back right now too. I’ve had to put extension on my gas bill but only until Friday and had my power shut off the other day so had to pay that out of what little money I had saved for my rent. I need $1000 by tomorrow to save my apartment this month (now its going to be to find a new place to live before this eviction hits my credit which i fear it has most likely happened now and moving expenses because I have no idea what I am going to do or BE ABLE to do) and $2500 to pay the lender back who has been showing up at my job and harassing me messing with other people in my life. Every week that goes by is an extra $100 he charges. I borrowed $2000 from him and he charged $500 plus $100 a week after his due date. I’ve already given him $300 but am now back up to $2500 again.
I can’t take the stress anymore. I have high blood pressure, no insurance and am out of my medication. I have multiple ER bills for going due to my blood pressure and I’m scared I’m about to have a stroke or heart attack. I can’t get a loan because my credit has gone to hell. I can’t keep up this stress and have no where to go and no means to move if I lose my apartment. I’ll lose everything and be homeless. I don’t qualify for or have the time even if I did for state assistance.
My car is a total lemon mechanically and cosmetically, I’ve had to put so much $ into it and now the transmission is going and I need 2 more new tires as they’re about blow. I’m scared every time I go to drive it otherwise I’d be doing uber and delivery services I’ve signed up for during my spare time. But need to renew my insurance and think my license might now be suspended.
I’m at my wits end!!!! I’ve been breaking down every night and am usually so strong and the one everyone turns to for help or a place to crash if they need some time to get back on their feet but now I’m the one who needs help needs and I can’t take the stress anymore!! It’s literally going to kill me! Please please please help me!!! !!!! ! I just want to be OK and sleep at night without the nightmares and being terrified every day!!! I’m at the end of my rope!!!! Anything would be so graciously appreciated and will and do always pay forward when I can!
College Student
I am a college student who works part time. My family is going through a really tough time so I have no financial help. My mother was pregnant and had my younger sister 8 weeks early a couple days ago. During that time she lost a lot of blood and they were scared she might not make it. I flew back immediately which was my rent money. She had a blood transfusion and end up recovering beautifully. Thank God. I’ve never been late on my rent before and I got a notice saying I had 7 days to pay the $502 or I would be evicted. Please I’m asking if someone could please help me! I only make about 300 a week and this is midterm week as well so I’m cutting my study time down so I can work more hours unfortunately. I’m praying that someone sees this and God puts it on your heart to be a blessing. I just want to be ok so I can continue to pursue my degree without being homeless.
Help Mom & Kids avoid Eviction & Car Repossession
In order to overcome my hardship I am in need of $6000.00 PLEASE HELP!! After a horrible breakup where I was left penniless, My children and I moved to a new city and we have no support system. I am a teacher and was unemployed for almost 3 months (July/Aug/Sept). I am behind almost 3 months on my rent and my landlord is demanding payment by Monday, 8 Oct 2018. He has already filed eviction documents through the courts against me and to stop it I need to submit the funds through the courts. In addition, when I was unemployed I was unable to make my car payments and have to hide my car in my garage to avoid repo until I come up with 3 car payments. Someone please bless my kids and I out of this situation so that we do not become homeless and carless while I’m getting on my feet. Currently, I do have a job, but it’s not enough to catch up my past 3 months debt.

Overwhelmed with debt
Hello Good Samaritans,
My name is Dodie, and I am writing this message to everyone who will have the time to read asking for a bit of your help regarding my situation. I am currently in financial distress. I am in the verge of being evicted because I am behind on my rent for 2 months now. It all started when I lost my job on the summer of 2016 and only relying on my income on unemployment insurance. I worked as a nanny and does not earn much. I am the only one working as my husband is sick and does not have any medical insurance . Every time he visit the doctor the expenses are all coming out from our pocket. In spite of this, I still able but struggling to pay off my rent, so I got into the cycle of borrowing from payday loans. I also borrowed from my close friends but I can only do it once as they have also family to support. Aside from this, I am also supporting my mother who have diabetes and does not have any medical insurance as well. I got overwhelmed with all these responsibilities that sometimes I just sit in one corner and not knowing what to do and my tears starting to pour. It is so bad that my husband and I argues a lot. I went and ask for help in the county where I am residing but was turned down on the basis of I have too much debt. I plead my case and told my case worker how come you were able to help people that comes in this country clothed them, give them place to live, credit cards to spend, send their children to school and they have not pay a single tax in this country and I am here a responsible individual, no conviction and good citizen of this country, paying my taxes and just for this time asking for one time help with my rent you cant lend your hand. They said that what happened to me is the result of being not responsible with my finances. I left their office with a heavy heart and feeling so alone and don’t know what to do. I went to library and search for people with financial difficulty asking help from people who can lend their hand and I got into this website. Please help me.
Thank you for reading my message and any amount that you can spare big or small is much appreciated from the bottom of my heart and knowing that there’s still goodness and kindness in human heart.
God bless you all and may we find peace in our hearts always.
Working Disabled
First I would like to say if I dont collect a penny through this site I am very thankful to God and the powers that be for even making something like this available for people in need. I am brought here because I am a 48 year old Women who has lived a very full life and have had a dream job to be able to travel the world. Unfortunately on one of those trips I was bitten by a mosquito and ended up hospitalized for weeks with something like Malaria this ended that career when I lost part of my right lung which would be sustainable but along with having Systemic Lupus placed me on disability which I have learned to live with I work a part time job now in a food chain restaurant and because I went over the amount that disability allows by four dollars yes I said four dollars they Disability took away my check for the month of September I have been struggling trying to get my rent together and pay bills because of $4 they took an entire check I depend on to put a roof over my head. I had to slow down working the serving job hoping that they will reinstate the check for October. I have been working since I was 16 years old I would rather work and pay my way right now I stuck and was directed to this site just by a general web search trying to figure this out, $2000.00 would pay my rent and late fee along with catching up on late bills. I am willing to take a leave from work if someone need a housekeeper, Personal Assistant, Shopper, Ecen a House Sitter to work for the assistance I am willing to do that. For the person that is willing to help I can assure you that I am the pay it forward person. If someone would like to reach out to verify my story I encourage it.
Eviction, Mental Health Emergency and Dog Boarding
I’m in a pretty terrible situation right now. I am looking to check into a mental health facility because I’m in a very poor mental health state right now and honestly require in patient treatment. While my job is willing to work with me and give me the time I need, I am also getting evicted for reasons related to my mental health issues. I live with a friend and don’t have a formal lease. I’ve been paying $500 a month, but things have gotten to a point where I will be evicted in a few weeks. I have a dog and am a dog trainer (Tod is pictured above). If I have to, I will find a home for him, but I would very much like not to have to do that. He’s my best friend, and I would like to raise money for both a security deposit when I get out and to board Tod somewhere while I am in patient at the hospital. I want to stay at the store where I work because I like it and the people there, but I don’t have a car, making my apartment choices limited. I have found some relatively low cost ones, but I need to come up with that security deposit money as well. I don’t think I’m entitled to anyone’s money at all. This was just somewhat sudden on top of my decision to check in to a hospital as well. I just really need help. The boarding and the security deposits and the potential pet fees are stacking up, and I was not saving in anticipation of all of this. So, if anyone can help, I would be so grateful. I can’t pay you back, and I’m so sorry for that. But I’m at a breaking point and don’t know what to do without anyone to really help in the immediate area where I live. Thank you even for considering this. I appreciate that.
Eviction Threat
My name is Brittany, and I just moved to California to follow my dreams, and to find healing. I have Lupus and I’m currently on dialysis. I knew Cali was the place for me, but I didn’t know it would be so rough starting out here. I’m aware of how expensive it is here, but I didn’t think I would lose my job so fast. Unfortunately I was layed off literally 2 weeks after moving into my studio apartment mid August 2018. I live in Canoga Park, CA and I’m about to be evicted if I can’t come up with the money to pay for rent in full for this month (September), next month (October), and court fees. I currently only have $800, and my rent is $1484 a month for a studio apartment. The total I owe for this month of September 2018 is $1562.61(including water, sewage, and late fee). I will have to pay $1562.61 plus $1484 plus court fees. I was told today, 9/22/18 that they sent my case to the legals and that I will be evicted if I can’t get the money. Now I have a new job and haven’t had enough time to work to save enough to be able to pay rent. My last job also did not pay me my last check, and that’s what really hurt me financially. Anything helps, I really don’t want to be homeless and I just moved here. There are very little resources here that will help at all for people like me. I appreciate all who take the time to read or donate. Thanks!

Single mom with 6 year old son facing homelessness. Scared and have never been in this predicament!
Hello…
This is very hard to write as I’ve never been in this situation, I was always able to help others. I am going through a horrible, unexpected divorce and trying to fend for my 6 year old son and I. I injured myself at work, never ever have before, and am currently on 60% of my income. Not only do I have the decrease, I am missing a second income, including my original rent money due to it being taken from my spouse I’m divorcing. I received paperwork for an eviction but can do a stipulation to avoid this. I need help. As embarrassing as this is, facing the humility is worth it because my son doesn’t deserve to not have a roof over his head. I cannot look into his eyes and let him down. I’ve contacted local resources, however, since I have an income I do not qualify for any program or assistance. The ones I do qualify for (2) are out of funds. I am in need of $1500 to stop this eviction. Now I know this doesn’t fix my issue all the way, but since I know I will be on my income only, I will be able to cut corners and budget for that. I won’t be in this predicament the following month…but I’m so scared. I need help. And fast. I’m hoping someone out there will help us avoid sleeping on the streets in the PNW. I’ve come a long way in life and honestly at this time have been dealt a very bad hand. I am begging at this point…I did not expect this and am so incredibly embarrassed. I also have no family here in Washington. Please help us.

We all go through hardtimes
I am writing my story to reach out to someone, and or many. We all go through hardships at some in life, and we all need someone to lean on during those times. This is my time. I got behind on my rent, I was out of work for a month do to an accident, which called my bills to back up, and the money to be slowly coming in. I am now facing eviction. My child, and I do not have anywhere to go if it goes that route. I am back at work, yet my landlord doesn’t want to wait for the money. He’s already filed court proceedings which will take place next week. I am swallowing my pride, and reaching out to at least someone for help. If you can find it in your heart to help us that would be greatly appreciated. Whatever donations you can sow into our lives we will be forever grateful. I need 2,000 to keep a roof over our heads or we will be going to a shelter. We all make mistakes. I am human, and I do not want my child to suffer the most.
Can someone please help us! Please! Paypal.me/Godsgrace8

When Life Kicks You In The Face
Hello, my name is Ivan, I’m almost 30, and this is the lowest point of my life.
Recently, I’ve been down on my luck. I have lost my job, my wife left me, and I was forced to to move back home with my mother, who only works part-time. Since then, I’ve been struggling with part-time jobs, just trying to survive through the hard times.
I must say, the manual labor in a third-world country is no fun. Working 14 hours shifts every single day, sometimes more, with no protection, or health insurance, in a case of an accident. But, after a while, I got used to it, we started saving some cash and things started looking up for me. But, then again, life punched me in the face, and it punched hard. I got almost deadly ill due to not having adequate work protection, and because what my mother made barely covered medical expenses, bills started pilling up.
Now that I am finally healthy again, I’m back to work, and making some money, but due to bills, electric and water supply companies are threatening us with court action and and shutting down the supplies.
And here comes the part where I have to ask any kind soul for the desperate help we need. It is funny how we always say that when you’re down, you find out who is really your friend. The sad truth is, when you hit rock bottom, everyone looks the other way.
So, I have to hope that there is at least someone out here willing to help.
Now, the good, and the sad thing about our bills is that our country is really poor, so, the unpaid bills for seven months, for electricity, water, and similar expenses turn out to be a little under thousand dollars, with the current exchange rate. The bad thing is, with our current income, we would need about a year to repay that.
The total amount of money that we have to pay right now is 97.872 dinars, or, when you change it to dollars, it is somewhere around $950. For comparison how of how much that is to us, the two of us made around $180, combined. And that is without all the expenses, like food, or drinkable water, or basic hygiene products. So, as you can see, we are in a really bad place right now. Not to mention that, if we end up in court, we will probably lose the house, as well as any last bit of hope we still have.
So please, if there is anyone willing to help,

Last ditch effort
Hello my name is Antonio. I am a husband and father of 3 wonderful kids who don’t deserve the agony I am about to endure. I got a call from my wie saying we received an eviction letter today saying that we have 5 days to vacate. Not what I needed to hear while driving home. She has never received such a letter before so she’s devastated. And of course my kids don’t know. My situation is probably the same as many. I was let go of a job that I actually moved to be closer to. Knowing that they still let me go. But things happen so I am not bitter and am over it. Finding another job was tough but I got hooked up with a temp agency. Pay is not great but it’s steady work. I also got another fulltime job at one of the theme parks but I have yet to start. Actually Friday I have orientation but it came to late. I also do food delivery so I am busy but just couldn’t make enough to catch up. I don’t know if staying here is an option seeing as I have this notice but at the same time moving is difficult having an eviction on my record. Believe me i really don’t like asking for help and I would rather be the one helping out, but I am at the end of my rope and this is a desperate attempt for me to get back on track. Having googled “help with eviction ” and it sent me to this site. Hopefully god willing this might be the financial help we need. Thank you all in advance and be blessed. Paypal.me/Masskids
2 weeks to move
I’m asking for help to pay for moving expenses for my family and myself. My husband is blind and a stay at home dad to our two children, who are 8 and 2. I’m a manager for a well known auto parts company for the last 12 years. We have lived in the same rental trailor for over 8 years. Rent has consistently gone up. We live off of my pay of about $1000 every 2 weeks and his disability check of $752 per month. We’ve been denied survivors benefits for our children and since my husband was only 21 when he lost his sight, his assistance is as high as it will ever get. We live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to get by. Rent is always paid tho. Our landlord has decided to close his park and has only given us 2 weeks to find another place. I’ve found a place in the same school district for $850 a month, which is perfect…but they need first and last month’s rent, application fees, and security deposit up front. The total to move in is $2350. We currently don’t have any of it. We can’t ask our parents for help. My father has passed. My mother has scerosis of the liver and is hospitalized frequently. His mother has Parkinson’s and his father has stage 4 cancer. None of them are in a position to help. I have no idea where to turn or who to ask. I figure there’s no harm in asking here. I have to find a way before my family ends up homeless. Any help or advice is so greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

DITCHED BY ROOMMATE – EVICTION SOON PLEASE HELP
Hello, not sure how to start this so I’ll just jump right into it. My name is Christen and I am a full time student at UNT, and I live in an apartment in Denton at the moment. I am 23 years old and I work part-time at the grocery store ALDI. I come from an extremely poor family so I am already paying for my schooling myself. No one else could help with that at all. My mom is currently battling brain cancer so there’s no way I could ask my family for anything. My brother is the one helping her pay for everything since my dad is gone, and that already robs them of all their income. I am trying to finish school and pay it off so that I can get a better paying job to help my mom out. Right now I make just enough each month to barely pay off all of my bills as it is, so things were already stressful for me. I also already have anxiety, depression, and diabetes medications that I have to afford each month on my own, but sometimes I am not able to purchase them when I really need them because of my financial situation. So I am completely at a loss now. I was living in an apartment with two other girls, but one just completely ditched us and left without any warning on Friday. Now we have no way of contacting her for her portion of rent. The apartment employee didn’t ever get ahold of her either. So now we have to pay her $400 portion ourselves, even though we have no means to do so. Understandably we are extremely scared and stressed My roommate and I have been struggling to scrape together some money to cover it the past few days, but we still need $225 by tomorrow or we will have to pack up and leave. I really need to stay here because my schooling depends on it. I have severe anxiety and depression and this is all causing me too much agonizing stress to deal with. I don’t really know what to do honestly. I really don’t want to be homeless, so I am trying everything I possibly can. I’ve never asked for money on any site like this but I am hoping someone will see this and be able to help me out. I could even work out a way to pay you back if that is needed! Thank you and bless you endlessly if you are able to help at all!
May you find help with your struggles everyone.

Everything falling apart
Hello
I never thought I would end up in a situation where I would have to ask for charity but I see no other choice, I am 37 y/o and have Bipolar disorder, I´ve been out of work for three months now, I couldn’t afford healthcare anymore so I run out of medicine and recently I had to go through emergency cause I had a manic crisis from which I´m still recovering. I have a beautiful daughter with my ex GF, she´s two 1/2 years old, we separated last November after almost 3 years of tolerating abuse , she is very manipulative, psychologically violent and I would dare to say a liar in a sociopathic level, I had to break up with her because she hit me during a fight, and now that I´ve been struggling to recover from the breakup, months of depression and recent mental breakdown, she has taken advantage of my economical and health situation by lying and trying to burry me legally accusing me of being violent person, which is totally false, she took my daughter to another city without my permission, I haven´t seen her in almost a month, and got some very nasty documents from court. I recently spoke to her and she tried to blackmail me asking me for money. On the other hand I am just about to get evicted cause I cannot pay for my rent anymore, I´ve been trying to sell my art online, look for customers, sell stuff I have but I´ve had no luck and I can´t afford any legal services to solve the situation, nor time. I really don´t want to feel like I´m a victim of this situation but I don´t really see any hope any close, some money could really be of help right now.

Behind on rent :(
Hello… to whoever is reading this.
I’ve spent the past few days applying for jobs and making phone calls and selling my belongings on the internet to try to catch up and it feels hopeless… so I’ve found this website as a bit of a last resort. A “Hail Mary” if you will…
My name is McKenzi and I worked in restaurants my whole life after being told by my family that I couldn’t amount to anything more than that. This year, I found a passion in music and realized I regretfully worked my youth away and never allowed myself to experience life outside of work. I quit my restaurant job and became a DJ, built my own label called Seductive Abduction and started traveling with production companies building stages for music festivals around the country. My heart has never been fuller and I’ve never known true happiness until I started working with music. I’ve been very blessed this year except recently, my past two gigs took a massive pay cut under a different management and now I am two months behind rent with a red negative in my bank account… I live in a small town so my back-up of DJing for pay does not support me financially at $50 a week…. I now FULLY comprehend the term “starving artist”. it’s honestly embarrassing for me to have tried to follow my dreams but ended up in debt and although my spirit is happy, my mind is plagued with anxiety about my credit going under for a corrective eye surgery in collections and impending eviction because I haven’t been able to pay rent. I’m humiliated to ask for help; my parents are not capable of helping me; my father is an alcoholic and a drug addict who lives on the street and I can’t help him if I can’t help myself. And I certainly don’t want to end up like him if I can’t get my life together. I have jobs lined up in a couple of weeks to work at the local YMCA but I’m afraid by the time I get paid… I might have run out of time. My landlord says he is renovating my apartment starting September 24 and that I must leave. I know the real reason is because I’m behind on the rent… anyway… I know that I’m rambling but I don’t know what else to say; I’ve never asked for help before. Like I said, this is a bit of a last resort. It would be a blessing if this works but I understand if it doesn’t. If this is a real opportunity that you offer people, then thank you for your acts of kindness.

Looking for help with rent for my mom a/depressi
hello there, I know this seems a little far fetched and a lot to ask for but it’s to help my mother out extremely and myself but mainly for my mom. She is the biggest blessing in my life and I wish I could bless this woman everyday for what she does for me. We’ve been evicted from multiple different apartments in our lives due to my moms past drug addiction/bad relationship and not being able to afford rent costs, I finally within the last 2 years have pulled my mom away from that bad place she was in and we have moved into a house for the first time ever in the last year. Herself and I are working on getting her completely sober and also working on some of my mental health problems and anxiety but we seem to have run into another eviction that is coming up really soon unfortunately. After she started getting sober, she got a seasonal job that had ended in January and since then, we haven’t been able to keep up with the bills, groceries, animal needs, hydro bills, and so many other things until she can find work again, but those are most important right now. She’s also shuffling with EXTRME dental costs to fix more than a few teeth which is putting a huge weight on our money and financial situation. I’ve attached a copy of how much rent we currently owe from May, we still owe that amount and the only reason he’s let us stay here is because we’ve agreed to try to continue paying our monthly rent but he is now trying to evict us for the rent we owe from February to May and has ordered us to pay this amount or we will be forced to be evicted by the end of September. Monthly rent is 1500$ here which we’ve still struggled to get the last few months, every month but we do manage. But now 6,190$ is way to much that we are unable to come up with. We really love the area we are in because it’s away from the bad parts of where my mom started her addiction, she’s really progressing here and and it’s our first home we’ve ever lived in which is extremely exciting. All she has is me and I know I’m not enough so this house is her safe haven, it’s where she feels the most comfortable and she feels like she’s able to succeed. We both don’t have much support or family because my dad had passed a little over 2 months ago and it’s still a big damper on our lives, we’ve tried to resort to every resource we possibly could for money help and I really don’t know what much else to do at this point besides look toward being homeless with our dog and cat in the next month which I’m really praying to god doesn’t happen, and a miracle will come my way.. My mom is the biggest role model and inspiration to me and I wish everyday I could give back to her and show her brighter days but it seems like our life always comes to some type of hault everytime we try to work on something good. I love her with all my heart and i am not the type of person to beg for help unless I can help in some way back but this is too serious of a situation that I know I can’t wait around for, the help is appreciated greatly and I will be forever grateful and thankful for you and your existence.
Thank you so much 🙏🏽☺

I’m old, widowed, disabled, poor and almost homeless. My son kicked me out!
Hi to whoever reads this.
I am renting a small house from my son since 2016. He said I have until October to get out. Mind you I have paid my rent on time and sometimes early when he needed it.
He lost his job and needs to sell with a quick sale before the bank forecloses.
He lives in another house that he owns.
I am disabled and I live on Social Security disability, I pay $800.00 a month plus I pay all utilities. I do not have a savings or anything to sell to give me the money I need to move, pay some of the utilities here and get my $750.00 car fixed.
Yep I bought a car and the next week the timing chain is going.
The money to buy the car was from SSDI back pay and I got my little dog Mo the surgeries he needed which were almost as much as the car.
I have no money left. I make $1,678. a month and I have to go to the food shelf every month.
I’m screwed, I don’t know what to do and where to turn. I have no real family but my sick brother and my daughter. I doubt if my son will ever let me see my grandkids again. I had to use the last months rent money to put a deposit on another place. That was agreed upon when I gave him an $800.00 deposit when I moved in.
I’m so glad I’m moving. The house is really bad. The pipes are small so they clog and need work, the roof leaks in my bedroom and the whole bathroom floor and half the kitchen is caving in.
I just know this, I would never have let my disabled mother live in a house like this without helping her a little bit with paint or maybe mowing the lawn. The best thing would have been stopping the leak over my bed. I would have paid him to stop the leaks.
I love him very much and I wish I could help him in his time of need but all I can do is pray that he and his family can maintain their lifestyle that they are used to.
Most of the time that I lived here I could not walk. My daughter helped me as much as she could but she just got divorced and has her own health problems.
I need over $400.00 to pay the electric, I don’t know how much a timing chain for the Ford Focus is going to cost and there is a water bill coming that I have to pay that will be about $150.00 for 3 months.
I’m paying just about as much in the new place a month but in one lump sum of $1,100. a month. That includes everything and I don’t have to pay for the lawn upkeep.
I just need a boost, any amount to help me get out of this hole, mentally and physically.
I feel so alone and unloved. I miss my husband and I’m scared.
Help us keep our house
my name is Sam my husband is Matt we have a 7 year old son and a 15 year old son. We have honestly struggled for years off and on, then finally my husband landed a great job and things were starting to look up! About a year ago my youngest started getting sick all the time and we had no idea why he was constantly missing school and I was missing work. It took months drs kept telling us everything was just viral. He would get better and 2 days later he was sick again. I missed so much work I eventually lost my job, but with a lot of persistence we finally found a dr that knew what was the matter. We found out that he had low AIG which ment he wasnt producing antibodies. There were heavy long term dose of antibiotics given and trips to the hospital if his fever went over 101. It was really rough on everyone emotionally and financially. We have since made it through that and closely monitor his health but for the last 4 months he hasn’t been sick! Right around the same time he started getting better Matt’s work got very slow. And I took a job working in a shirt factory just to try to catch up even a little. In June I had to go out for carpal tunnel and cubicle tunnel surgery and because it was pre existing condition I had to go with no pay… I also wasnt fired so no option for unemployment… Matt’s work eventually laid him off due to lack of work and hes been mowing lawns and trying to do everything possible to make a few bucks to keep food on the table. We have gotten so far under at this point that what we are physically able to do isnt going to get us out of this hole we are now 3 months behind on rent and it’s only a matter of time till the eviction notice comes out electric has been shut off and as off now is only on because I have a protection from abuse order against my sons bio dad, and in pa if a pfa is in place the electric company must potion to have it shut off.
Things have really spun out of control for us and I dont know what to do but ask/ beg for someone to please help us!
Emergency Housing Assistance
My name is Rita , and I am a 100 percent disabled person who is renting a home in a development in Cherry Hill, NJ. I got a co-signer to help me, Myrna Zeilie, but her family will no longer allow her to assist me, as her health deteriorates.
I suffer from multiple illnesses, lymphedema, high blood pressure, asthma bronchitis, vertigo migraines, complex regional pain syndrome 1, neuropathy, gastroparesis, and arthritis in my elbows, wrists, lower back, and both ankles. I have broken both ankles, have had surgery three times on the right ankle, and an 8 inch plate with 8 pins remains in the right ankle. These are just a few of the reasons why I take over 17 pills and capsules a day. I long to get onto my feet and get off SSD someday.
I am not perfect. I haven’t had a perfect credit record. I have had bankruptcy. But I have done good things in life. I stayed with my mom until I was 33 when she was dying with stomach cancer, I nursed her home hospice until she died. Years later, I helped home hospice and stayed over nights every hospital stay with my brother Walter as he battled lung cancer and succumbed to it at the tender age of 58.
I raised two of my niece’s kids from infants, and lost a home to foreclosure in 2008 after 10 years. I have not owned a home since. I am a real estate broker Associate by trade, but due to all of my illnesses, have barely worked.
I rely on SSD, my daughter’s income, who suffers from crippling depression, and now my diabetic sister Brenda who is 63, and on SSI. Together we try to pay the rent here and we haven’t fallen behind yet.
There’s an association here that says we have to move immediately. The reason: breaking the rules by renting rooms in my home. I long for the day to have only my family in this home and owning it. To make a long story short, we have been here 6 months, have paid our bill, but must move unless I buy the home immediately. Also the owner is willing to sell to me. But I don’t have the funds. Or the kind of deposit to buy immediately.
I have multiple illnesses, a diabetic elderly sister, a 24 year old daughter suffering with crippling depression, and a 17 year old nephew suffering from ADD/AHD, all who will be displaced if I cannot buy this home immediately. I can document all of our illnesses upon request, and produce our SSD award letters.
I am African American, and one of a few here. More importantly, I take pride in this home. I just want my relatives to have a safe and secure place to live without the fear of being homeless. I am God fearing Roman Catholic person. I feel like the Devil is chasing me just because I want to live in a beautiful home. This home is everything I have ever dreamed of. Everyone in this house is counting on me to solve this. I am so stressed that I cannot sleep at night. I count the minutes, days, hours, to eviction. Every knock on the door scares me. Homelessness frighten me.
I have two college degrees. One from Camden County College in Blackwood, NJ, AAS in Business Administration Corporate Management, and one from Rowan University in Glassboro, NJ, Bachelor of Science in Business Administration Finance.
This house costs $292,000. I am asking for a grant of any amount towards the purchase price, made out to Keller Williams in Washington Twp. to help me purchase it, so that I don’t have to leave and be on the street with my family. Once I buy this house, we have enough monthly income to pay taxes, utilities and association dues between my sister, my daughter and myself. We also are willing to do work at home scenarios as well to help ourselves.
The realtor says immediately means by the end of September unless something comes up. I pray anyone can help us.

family of 5 emergency move, about to he homeless with 3 kids.. Please Help!
Hi my name is Stacy. My story of downfall started in December 2 days before Christmas when I had a miscarriage. It tore out family inside out . About 4 weeks later I just suddenly collapsed one day. I was not feeling well and thought I had the flu. I almost died from an infection growing in my stomach I did not know was spreading. After the hospital released me it was a long 6 weeks in bed. Then the severe depression started. I just couldn’t wrap m head around what I did wrong to lose my baby. I do not drink, do not do drugs. I lived a typical mom life. I started to go to a therapist for help, I just couldn’t myself alone, and lost.
Im the mean time dad ended up loosing his job trying to take care of me and the household. We unfortunately for the 1st time got behind on rent we now owe 1909 and 1500 to the lawyer to stay. We found a place that’s actually cheaper to move.
I am in the middle of battling for social security I have severe mental illness, from abuse physical emotional and sexual growing up. the day I turned 18 I left. I have no family to ask for help. Since I left when I was 18 i’ve been on my own. Ive always been in therapy and see a psychiatrist every month like I am suppose to.
But We have somehow fell into a really bad spot, I was so not okay after I lost the baby for 4 months. Poor dad tried so hard to work and take care of me. He tried so hard and ended up getting fired over it. He is such a good man and really did not reserve that, or to have to take care of me I am a 33 year old adult that, should be able to remember if I have take my meds or have an apt. and cant even do that. I write everything down to remember. So I have a wonderful family that I feel like I have put into a horrible situation because of my severe mental health issues.
So I have never done or asked for help I have always been able to find a way around everything that life has thrown at me. But were stuck and going to be homeless. I already had eviction papers served, we have tried so hard to work with these ppl and payments and they wont except anything but the entire of whats owed and then can do payments with the lawyer. or i leave sign my trailer over and no consequences.
If anyone at all can see to help a true family in need, now is the time we seriously need help before were homeless.

mom is kicking me out because i’m gay
My name is Mila Kay and I’m a senior in high school, trying my best to get off to a good college next year. I’ve grown off in an economically disavantaged family for as long as I can remember, so I’ve always been used to having to make my own money. I have a job right now to do just that. Saving money didn’t seem like such a difficult thing until about a week ago when my mom kicked me out of the house because she found out that I have a girlfriend. I made the mistake of leaving my phone out in the kitchen, and she saw loving messages come in from my girlfriend, Sara. She confronted me immediately, treating me as though I was a stranger. She said I had lied to her, betrayed her. She told me to gather my stuff and find somewhere to stay. I just recently turned 18 so there’s nothing I can really do about it, and it’s getting harder and harder to get by. I work as much as I can but it never seems to be enough, and on top of that I’m also balancing a full load of AP classes at school and working on college applications any spare moment that I have. Ever since my mom kicked me out I’ve been couch floating between friends and my girlfriend, and I could really use any help that I can get. Within the next few months I’m going to have to pay entirely my own phone bill, car insurance, college application fees and eventually college tuition and rent. Thinking about it all can just get to be so overwhelming. As soon as I graduate from hugh school I plan to get a second job and maybe a third in order to save up and be able to sustain myself but until then I would like to be able to save up money for the future, not just barely scrape by Not to mention that through all of this, I have absolutely no support from my parents about who I am and oh my goodness it is just f***ing breaks my heart. Anyways this feels very long and thank you to anybody who takes the time to read it, it means a lot to me and I hope you can find it in your heart to help me out a little.
Sincerwly,
Mila Kay
Help Save Me From Eviction
Hi, my name is Lori and I need your help. That phrase was hard for me. I have taken great pride in my ability to take care of myself financially. That has all changed now. I owe money to the IRS, my state for taxes, various medical bills, loans, utilities, insurance for vehicle, overdrawn checking accounts, storage unit for my belongings that I can’t fit into my apartment, my cell phone, the monthly co-pays on the prescriptions I take, and misc other bills but most importantly my rent. I do not want to have to move out of my current apartment building because it has no stairs for me to climb. I am currently unable to climb stairs. I do not see a way out of the mess I am in without help. I have thought about filing bankruptcy but that would not solve all of my problems nor would it give me money to live on. In the long run, it will cost me money – hiring an attorney and the court costs. I do not have any family members that I can turn to for help. I have exhausted all of my friends for help. I have reached out to different programs in my community and none are able to help me. I am not currently not in bad enough condition for their help. Things really went downhill fast a couple of months ago when I was the victim of two different scams. I have a good paying, full time time job and I have been trying to dig myself out of the hole. That has proven difficult because there are two different garnishments on my paychecks that leave my net paycheck not big enough to cover all of my monthly bills. The garnishment company does not care if they are making my survival very hard. My financial problems have distracted me at work, so my job productivity has fallen off so I was not allowed to work overtime for extra money. My physical limitations make it hard for me to get around so getting a second job would prove to be difficult for me. I have a vehicle, but it is old and in need of repairs. My area had a long and hard winter last year and I hope my vehicle will be able to make it through the upcoming winter season. I thank you for reading this and hope you find it your heart to help me.

Trying my best but running out of time! Need help to save my home
Need help to stay sheltered. Might be on the street by tomorrow afternoon. Thank you for anything at all
Hello. Thank you for considering me for your donation. I guess I’ll get right to it, I am in borderline financial crisis and could use any amount of help.
Please allow me to provide a brief introduction. My name is Aly. I am an accountant by trade and have worked several years in the corporate world. Late in 2017, I was struck by a debilitating health issue. I was protected under the FMLA for 12 weeks. Unfortunately, the issue took longer than 12 weeks to resolve, and I had to resign from a great job with an amazing company and it breaks my heart to this day. I have yet to regain my footing and control of my financial life as I am struggling daily just to keep a roof over my head. As a result, I have spent my savings, maxed out all of my credit, and used any and all loans from my family and friends that I had access too.
I am currently and have been staying in hotels, but the bills are just getting too much to cover nightly. I was barely managing, and then I had a recent bed bug encounter at a low-cost weekly rate motel that has left me in dire straits. The incident has cost me hundreds of dollars, laundering all that I could, some items had to go through twice, and replacing many unsalvageable items. Further funds that I was lucky to be able to cover. Unfortunately, I have learned the hard way that there is very little recourse in the state of Washington to recoup losses associated with bed bugs due to the nature and cost involved in proving fault.
As a result, my funds have been reduced to almost nothing. I spent the last 2 days planning, doing, and trying everything I could think of to raise more funds. I had a little success, allowing me to pay for the room tonight. Now I am at a loss, I can think of no viable way to pay for another night, and I am completely scared by the prospect of life in my tiny car. Single female sleeping alone in an alley or underpass somewhere sounds less than safe to me. Then there are the bills that I have not mentioned, nor really been able to think about, that have gone or will go delinquent this month… My credit does not stand a chance as is, making regaining my footing an even greater impossibility. My anxiety is rising rapidly as I am thinking about this all in such a concise manner.
This plea is a difficult one. I am a proud person who did not foresee the need to ask/beg others for help to get basic needs met. Yet, here I am. I tremendously appreciate any possible amount I might receive. I cannot thank you enough and fully intend to pay it forward when I get back on my feet, very soon I hope.

LIFE CHANGER PLEASEE HEAR MY POOR SOUL OUT!!! PLEASEE!!
My name is Saleem Issah, I am 17 yrs old, writing from the depths of my heart. Currently, my family is facing a severe economic situation that could eventually render us homeless. This is why I have used this medium to reach out to the good people of the world to hear my story and hopefully appeal to their kind hearts to render support to my family and me. My story is that of a single immigrant mom of 4 kids, all boys, our reality is that of an American family from the South Bronx area of New York, which is the poorest county in the nation. My mom works three separate Jobs to fend for the entire family; i watch her go in and out, and I feel a growing pain in my heart because of her struggles. She tries to keep up a warm smile to hide the sadness and pain in her eyes, but the pain is something that is difficult to hide. I wish I were older so I could render support through hard work, but it’s beyond my means at the moment. This is why I have opted to use this medium to appeal to the people of America and the rest of the world to see me as a son in need, read my story as a sad American story. In my current reality, we owe 2 months of back rent and are facing eviction soon, my brothers and I will have to be separated and the younger ones put in the foster system, I do not know what will become of me from here on, at this point in my existence the American dream is beyond reach; I appeal to the great people of America to assist me in reconstructing my reality and help my family actualize the American dream. I need 20,000 to give my family a fighting chance in this journey we call life.

There HAS To Be A Prosperous Way
GI’m A 25 year old single mother of boys ages 7, 3 and 2. I’ve struggled majority of my life. Mother married a drug addict and father absent due to drug abuse, which killed him in the long run not even a year ago from today on 8/18/2017. I recently lost everything. Evicted from the first house I ever owned in less than 3 months of owning it. I lived in Topeka, KS, with the only major support being my Grandmother Leslie. Lord how I wish she could help me and save me the embarrassment of exposing my miserable, un-wealthy, un-healthy life. I wish she could help me one last time, but she has recently requested me to make believe that she has passed away and asks that I no longer ask her for help. My kids father’s are absent, they have always been absent, I am still dumbfounded to this day, why I kept having kids, when i knew I had to fight for their dads love. Even though I fought for their love, they fought me in return. I suffered physical and mental abuse from My kids fathers, suffering internal damages to the stomach, lost teeth that were punched out, countless cars that were vandalized and the worse, my boys missed out on a real father being their for their kids in the most supportive way. All these events in my life led me to run, and run fast an far. I’ve gotten in the worst bind, my car is overdue on a title loan and worst I had to get new tires and they are delinquent too! I may lose it all, within the same week, car, house, and finances. That’s why I’m here today, if I can save anything, I’d rather save my mind and my children. I pray that anyone with a pulse will help me financially in the most godliest way. I’m homeless, I have 17 dollars to my name. 10 of that is credit and my gas tank is on E. I picked me and my kids up and ran 200 miles away to start a new life. I need help though, I can’t do this on my own. I can’t lose my sanity and I can’t lose my children. If anyone can help me get my title loan paid off and pay my tires and get me and my boys off the

Working two jobs, still barely making enough to be in poverty
Hello, I’m Evan. I work two jobs; animal control officer, and construction worker. I make about minimum wage where I am, and I work so long, in hard conditions. I dont mind working, but working is hard when you’re hungry, and stressed about how you’re going to pay your bills. Recently, my apartment manager gave me an eviction notice, after I had asked her if I could pay the day after rent is due. I don’t ask much, but I really need at leash $650. My dog, Fjorn, and kitty cat, kitty would like to keep the roof above their heads, and food in their dishes. I can barely feed myself. This poverty started about a year ago. I was deployed to Afghanistan some time ago, and came back a couple of years after. I was honorably discharged, but couldn’t find a job for the life of me. I ended up finding a decent job, and had to relocate, and my wife of 10 years decided she wanted to part ways. I had a young son to care for alone, while working in a late night setting. He’s out of the house now, residing with his mother. Rent is 650 and cheapest in my town. I ask for just this one help. Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this, and I hope you all have a great day.
Disabled Vet and Family in Need of Help
Thanks for taking time to read this post.
This is not a platform my husband or I would normally turn to for help, but given our dire financial situation, we feel this may be our only hope to prevent us from losing our home. My husband is a disabled vet, deployed twice to Afghanistan, and accumulated numerous injuries and illnesses from his military career. Because of all of his injuries, he filed for VA disability after returning from his last deployment. While waiting to hear from the VA, my husband has had to cut back on his work hours due to physical pain of his injuries. Any help from the VA will supplement our income, but until that happens we are trying to get by with my income and his part time income. The last 3 years have been rough to say the least, taking care of our kids, 1 who sees a child psychologist for autistic tendencies, trying to keep up with expenses while trying to save for unexpected situations. After 3 years of waiting we are at the end of our rope. We are currently in the process of getting evicted from our home, along with the possibility of losing our vehicles. Family and friends have helped in every way they can, and ironically his VA claim will be decided soon, but any help from that will come too late to save our home and cars. School will begin soon and we do not even have enough money to purchase supplies and uniforms; I am almost reluctant to try to get them, not knowing if we will still have our home. We have always believed in helping others, even if we had to go without. The positive karma will always come back to you. Hopefully this will be our positive karma. We are not asking for a lot, just enough that our kids will not have to worry about where they will lay their heads at night.

Getting Back On Track
My name Rae. I’m actually asking on behalf of my father. My father is a strong man but he needs some assistance. My partner and I had gone to visit him for vacation. On the second day of our visit my father got a devastating phone call. One of his best friends and fellow firefighters had a heart attack and passed away. My father had cleared with his captain that he was good to attend the funeral and take the day off. The day after the funeral my father arrives at work to find a police officer standing outside staring at him. His chief arrives and explains that my father has two choices. To resign or be terminated. All of this because he “inconvenienced” one of his coworkers. (who also knew of the situation and agreed to cover my dads shift.) My father chose to resign because he did not want to make the matter worse. We recently found out he could have sued for wrongful termination if he had chosen to be terminated but it is too late now. My father has now lost custody of my youngest sister, has 30 days to leave his home, at risk of having his car repossessed and is struggling to find a reason to wake up in the morning. I’m genuinely afraid he is going to lose the fight inside of him and that he is going to give up. He has saved countless lives and I just want to help save his. He has brought me so far in life and he deserves to stay on the right path. If you understand or have been in this position, anything would help. Thank you.

Move out.
I am £500 away from a deposit on an apartment that I just will not get fast enough from my job. I am struggling to live with my parents because of my father and I could really use some help. The £500 would help me get away from the life I am living because I just can’t do it myself. I am struggling to get by and I do not want to end up homeless. My local council cannot help me, I have already tried and staying in my current house with my parents is debilitating and I will suffer greatly. I hate that I am doing this but I would really appreciate a kind heart helping me. A new apartment would mean that I could achieve better in my life and my father will just not allow it. I do not want to end up in debt therefor I do not want to take out a loan, and I could not ask friends and family for that money because they are just as poor as I am however if I stay with my father I fear that I will do something to myself in which I regret. Someone with a kind heart please help me, even £100 will help greatly and will get me one step closer to a life of which I am proud to live. My father is a danger to everyone around him, which is why my mother wants me to leave as soon as I can and as do I. I would like to put a restraining order on him however I cannot if I am living in the same house. Social services in my town is corrupt, and they will not take me away from my situation due to not being young enough and having a job, however I am only a waitress and do not earn enough money to cover my deposit. My town is small and there are no jobs so I wish to move to the town over in hopes of finding a better job that is able so support me better so I can finally live a life. My council will not help me, they say that because he has not physically hurt me they cannot put me in emergency housing, however my father is manipulative and violent in many other ways. He is a diagnosed Psychotic who refuses to take any kind of medicine because he feels that he is not sick but he is, and i can no longer be in the firing line of his emotional and mental abuse. Someone, anyone, please help me. https://paypal.me/kierab115
About to be evicted…
I’m about to be evicted this weekend and I’m looking for any kind of financial assistance anyone is willing to give me so that I can pay the two months of rent that are currently due. Every little bit helps.
I’m 30 years old, have two small dogs, one of whom is a senior and was recently diagnosed with Cushing’s, and I’m struggling to find FT work after I lost my job in April. I’m cleaning houses right now while I look for something more stable.
–TRIGGER WARNING–
I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety my entire life and I’ve self-harmed since the age of 8. I was diagnosed with PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder, both stemming from childhood traumas, about 8 years ago and I’ve been doing my best to be a successful human being. I recently went through about 9 months of severe depression during which I lost my job. I wasn’t accepted into grad school and I attempted suicide and was hospitalized for a little over a week. I’ve been trying to make ends meet ever since then and it’s just been really difficult.
I just need a little human kindness right now.

Being Evicted! Please Help!
I need help please to pay rent and my electric bill. I am 68 years old.
My wife is working part time since I am disable. Up until four months ago, we only had to pay $700 for rent and no utilities. Our place is a very small one bedroom which we have lived for 10 years.
My wife is Vietnamese and has an elderly mother who has been living with her son, my wife’s brother.
One day in December, the brother informed my wife that he is moving to Colorado and is selling the house. According to him, it is up to my wife to take care of their mother now and his responsibility is done with.
I need to tell you the background of this house so that you can understand. This house was bought by my wife’s parents in the 80’s and the mother had put down $50,000 for it. The parents put the son on the deed as a cosigner. My wife was only 19 years old at the time and still in school. Her brother was 26 and working.
They made an arrangement with him since they trusted him. He was going to pay for the mortgage and they carry everything else. They paid for food, clothing, all bills.
This went on until my wife’s father passed away. The brother tricked the mother into signing things over to him and he completely took over. After he took the house from his mother, he charged her rent and started a feud with my wife.
Life was tough for everybody but my wife made it worked for us until now. In December, seeing how distraught her mother is, my wife took all our savings together and rented a house for all three of us. We had a side business to keep us going. However, within the past few months, our business is struggling and we can not pay our landlord along with our electric bill. I am 68 years old and my mother in law is 83. My wife is 53 trying her best so we won’t be evicted. Our landlord is not going to sit there quietly. Our 30 day notice is coming to an end and we have no money to give her. Please help us anyone.
My family is struggling to stay afloat and am facing being evicted please help
Hi My name is Kevin. A little about my family: I am 34 years old and have struggled since I was 4 with a rare osteo disease called Spondometaphyseal dysplasia which cause severe deteriation in my joints and bones and have struggled to stay working (I have consistently worked since age 16). My Wife is 30 and has had Type 1 diabetes since age 7 and can not work full time as she has other health issues as well that cause extreme exhaustion plus we have 3 kids she cares for. I have a 7 year old daughter and a 4 year old daughter in perfect health but unfortunately I passed on my disease to my son who is 3. we have been struggling to keep up with the piling up medical and medication costs including braces, special riser shoes for my son, joint procedures, eviction proceedings and more the list goes on. I have a stable job but have been drowning by late fees and past due bills. My goal is to acquire a loan or grant of $5000.00 I can pay back in the near future (1-2 years or less depending on current budget) unfortunately I don’t have great credit so banks and loan stores will not loan me the money at the moment and we don’t qualify for assistance because they say I make too much (48000/year for family of 5). I am literally at anyones mercy who is willing and able to help us. Thank you for at least reading my story.
Maternity Leave Trying Not to Get Evicted
Hello I am a single mother. I have recently had a baby unexpectedly. I found out when I was 5 months pregnant due to being on birth control and attributing abnormal periods as a side effect to that. My job makes us use our vacation time for four of the 6 weeks of our maternity leave before they give us any short term disability pay which is less than half of our normal pay after taxes. Unfortunately for me I have not accumulated any vacation time due to taking off throughout the year when my other older child has been sick or has not had a babysitter for the week. That being the case I have fallen behind on numerous bills My rent being the major one. Originally the father of my child who I have known and been with for about five years agreed to help out until the baby came and he decided that he “didn’t want to be a family man anymore” and abandoned me with a newborn baby and no way to cover the expenses we were splitting. I am literally begging for any and all help to keep myself and my newborn off of the streets. I am somewhat embarrassed to say that I am extremely desperate and have pretty much exhausted all my options. I am open to answer anymore questions anyone may have but please have it in your heart to help out my self and my little family. My paypal is: paypal.me/itzmebre
Help us please
I am 68 years old now and worked since I was fifteen. I have so far survived breast cancer, and multitudes of surgeries. I retired at 62 after my knee replacement. None of this was as painful as living 47 years with an alcoholic husband who now has dementia and schizophrenia . He has been living in a nursing home almost two years and last week I signed for hospice to assist him. I also care for my adult 35 year old son who has Asperger’s, Social anxiety disorder and OCD.
I have never asked for help for myself only my husband and my son who both have received government assistance, but I only get my social security. Because of medical bills and repairs of our useless car, I am now unable to pay my bills. I am behind in rent and utilities and because I made a wrong decision and tried to fix things payday loans have taken my check before I can pay bills.
I don’t want to be another sob story, I just want to be caught up and have a decent used car, as my husband ruined this one with putting oil in the break lines, the mechanics charged $59.95 to tell me it would be more than $4,500 to fix it. I just need a car to get to my doctors and store nothing pretty. I don’t mind eating hamburger and tuna helper I am use to it. It doesn’t matter. It would be nice to sleep more than a few hours without fear ofbeing evicted.
I don’t want my son and myself to be homeless after I worked all those
years, hopefully not for nothing.
I pray you can help me as my credit is ruined and no one will loan me money. I have pawned everything of value, this is my last resort.
Emergency Rent Assistance
Hi my name is Wendi Rafferty. I’m 42 years old. I have a 13 year old daughter and I’m a single mom. We live in Dolan Springs Arizona and I recently lost my job due to severe bullying by fellow employees and upper management to where my anxiety level was so high everyday I was afraid to go to work. I tried to resolve the issues following chain of command which was really hard because a lot of people on the chain of commands where are people that I had been bullied by. I have been looking for work constantly everyday filling out applications online and finally found a job. I live 45 miles out of town and on my first day of orientation, on my way to work, my truck overheated which made me lat. I had notified them but when I had actually got to the facility they told me that I needed a reliable vehicle and to be there on time and they fired me on the spot. I have not been able to find anything yet since. I finally got my car fixed through a friend but my landlord stated that if I didn’t have rent by Tuesday, that we were going to get an eviction notice since out rent is due on the 1st of each month of $650. Our internet has already been shut off, and I have already gotten my second extension on my water bill, and my electricity is now do as well. I have no family that lives in the state of Arizona and no one else out here to help us. My family has helped us as much as they can from where they are. we have no money and nowhere to go if we get evicted. please help. I know that now that I have a running vehicle I will be able to find work but I just need the assistance for this month by tomorrow so we can avoid an eviction notice and be out on the street. Thank you so much and God bless you guys for all that you do.

Getting on my feet and trying to stay there
Hi, my name is Michelle. In the beginning of the year I got really sick with a couple large kidney stones getting stuck and needing surgical intervention. 4 kidney stents and 5 surgeries later I was well enough to go back to work. In total i was out exactly 3 months. I did get evicted from the house i was renting and I was 3 surgeries in a 2 to go. I managed to find an apartment with a cheap move in, so i took kust what i needed there and had everything else in storage. I was too sick to really do anything. I had some comforters and pillows i brought there and slept on the floor. About 3 weeks of living there I realized that i was getting eaten alive by bedbugs. The complex treated 3 times and still infested. I did move out and had to throw away everything that was in the apartment. I moved in to a weekly stay hotel which to my surprise is going well, however I have been trying to catch up and keep up with the bills. Car payment, insurance, rent, gas ,food phone, etc. I am 600 dollar’s late on my rent. I have till Wed 7/18/18 to pay it. I will be living in my car in Az in the heat if not paid. The 600 dollars will free me up to stay on top of things. Finally… I do have family, however we live in a paycheck to paycheck world and they are unable to help. This is my last option I have in hopes to stay on my feet. Anyone reading this I appriciate you taking the time to read this and possibly make a donation. Thank you again, Michelle
Friday the 13th kind of year!
I should start off by saying, I am NOT a single mother, a college student paying student loans, a sibling raising money to help a family member pay for medical bills due to an unfortunate illness…. or any other detrimental reason that most people require help for. I am a mother of three, married (for the first and only time) to a man who works in law enforcement. To that most may think “law enforcement? Well what could you possibly need our money for?” But before any judgement is passed on what kind of money we “should” have, let me first explain that we live in a small town where the brave men/woman (yes woman as in there is only one currently employed here) risk their lives for a mere $13/hr. Sure it’s a small pay, but it’s what my husband loves and where he’s lived for a large part of his life. With that being said, let’s get down to why I am really here. Being that our rent alone is $650 and our insurance (through his job) gets deducted from his paychecks as well as taxes (obviously) plus the money only coming once every two weeks, that leaves us with anywhere between $800-950 for other bills and expenses…… which worked decently for us even with me being a stay at home mom…. aaaannd then we woke up….. My husband and I have hit (what I can only hope to be) rock bottom! In a matter of two months, we have managed to go through hell…. In chronological order our last few months goes as follows…
* Every tire on our Jeep had managed to gradually go bad…. Ultimately ending in one getting a giant puncture which was unrepairable by any other means other than buying a whole new tire… +Side we managed to get 4 used tires for relatively cheap. Just for the front right cursed tire to go flat…..once again * Our newly bought USED w/d units decided that we only needed a washer and therefore made us dryerless….. * One of our heating elements in our water heater went kaput …. * My husband’s, my own, my father in laws, grandmother in laws, and cousin-in laws birthdays all fall in the same exact month….. * We are told continuously that we do not qualify for food assistance. * I become ill due to reasons STILL unkown. * My husband gets switched from second to third shift (which does not pay more than 1st or 2nd) and gets his hours cut back. * Uber denies me as a driver/employee due to driving without a license almost EXACTLY three years prior to my job inquiry….which 3 years is literally their deadline for any offense to be considered…. * My finger decided that my wedding band was no longer “it’s type” and swole until eventually we had to rush to the fire department to have it cut off.. * My husband’s Chief and every other officer from the pd show up on our doorstep at 8 am to inform us that there was a stolen van left BEHIND our garage with two perps seen running away from said vehicle and that we now we’re part of an investigation (to which my husband and I have fully complied) then put on administrative leave until further notice. * My husband’s ex had our only vehicle towed (long story) leaving us with exactly ZERO forms of transportation! * Our landlord decides NOW is the best time to tell us that he’s close to evicting us due to non payment of rent this month and partial non payment from last month (only because of financial strain)
It’s been one thing piling on top of the other with us…. Our water was shut off in the midst of all this and when we get one bill taken care of three more are due…… We got behind and now werew plummeting downwards…. This is a first and so help me the last time I will ever do this. I don’t like asking for money even when it’s desperately needed. We have always found our way out of these ruts …. But this time is a no go… Please please please please!!! Find it within yourselves to HELPPPP !!
Sincerely, and unapologetically begging…
Me.
