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.

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.

 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!

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.

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.

Thank you so very much for reading.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Thank you.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

My husband has had caregiver aspects of PTSD, after caring for his mother by himself for nine straight years. He had zero financial or physical help from either family or friends because his mother burned bridges due to alcoholism. He’s improved tremendously since we moved his mother into a nursing home and got her on Medicaid, and is actively seeking employment…but it’s difficult to explain nine years of being off the grid to potential employers. Unless they were caregivers themselves, they will never understand the day-in, day-out grind of dumping toilets, preparing meals, household cleaning and maintenance, administering medication, cleaning incontinence bed messes, the endless rounds of doctors’ appointments, arranging for housecall physical therapists per doctors’ prescriptions, and general wellness monitoring. He did his best, but boy, did he pay for it.

Me, I’m a fiftysomething woman who’s also finding it difficult to get hired permanently. I’m offered short-term temporary gigs about every other week, usually for about 8-16 hours, but monthly income of $350 after taxes doesn’t pay rent and utilities. I’m doing everything I know to make ends meet, but two credit cards are now maxed out, the personal loan I took out has dried up, and we are facing eviction in less than 10 days. I’ve sold everything we can possibly sell: the silver, a few pieces of art, jewelry.

Neither of us qualify for unemployment benefits, since he hasn’t worked in nine years and I only recently started working in 2018. I haven’t made enough income in the state to qualify, and we’re now on SNAP benefits (food stamps for those unfamiliar with the acronym). The $200 we have to our name (as of this writing) is reserved for cat food for a very sweet kitty (and he didn’t ask to be in this situation with us, but we won’t abandon him), laundromat change, and small shots of gasoline so that we can get to an interview. Neither of us are drug users, and we’re typically drama-free…except for now.

All we need is a shot in the arm. $3000, to be exact. What will it go toward? June rent, July rent, utilities (electricity and bundled landline/Internet access/TV) due in July, gas for our one car, and car insurance that’s due next month. We’re foregoing health insurance until one of us is employed, and neither of us carry a cell phone because we’re literally too poor to afford a cell phone contract.

Neither of us ever thought we’d be in this position. His mother obviously doesn’t have funds, my parents have already helped with what they can, and the rest of our families won’t contribute because they’re simply not interested in doing the right thing, or can’t contribute. Our friends are now paying college tuition for kids, or their money is tied up in a new small business, or they simply don’t have any money to loan, let alone give outright.

I have faith that we will get through this awful situation, and that I will be eventually be hired by at least a fast food franchise, but being hired now, with a week’s delay in pay, won’t help our immediate situation. Please, please help us be our hero or heroine and help us ASAP.  We will be two very grateful, appreciative human beings who can then give back to others in need, just as an anonymous donor helps us.

I am a mother and wife looking for help putting a roof back over my family’s head. We were recently evicted and escorted off of the property where we lived. We were given 5 days to get our things out, but we have no vehicle, no money, and no where to store our things even if we did have a way to move them. My husband is a disabled veteran and I have a daughter who has two little boys and is expecting another baby and is extremely high risk. I also have my youngest two daughters and myself. We had a little money and had to use it for a motel room and a little bit of food, because the churches told us that they wouldn’t help us because we weren’t members of the church. There are no openings in the only shelter in this area. And without a car, it’s not easy to get to the places that will only take your application for assistance with rent and deposit. We don’t have any time left to wait on applications. We were told this evening that we can stay here until Wednesday evening but that’s it. After that we have no where else to go. And my husband doesn’t receive his benefits until a week from Thursday. We’re exhausted, we’re hungry, and we’re scared to death because we don’t know where we’re going to sleep and eat come Wednesday night. Please help.

I do not know where to start , I never thought I will do this and I know that most people are weary  helping other people thinking they are not true to what they say , But all I can tell you is that from a nice Job a nice home and a nice life went to nothing fast ,Lost my daughter last year and two months later my Son Adam tried to kill himself ..you see he had a serious issue but with all of that I tried my best to help him to finish High School , but the big issue is I owe his School 17K if not paid by Aug 15 he will not be able to go to College ,,I am so afraid that he will do something to himself again if that happens .To make matter worse I am behind more than 10K in rent and have no income  If you want proof email me and I will give you the name and number of my Landlord and his School .I need help to get out of this mess . I pray each day that somebody will help us so I can get back on my feet and provide for this family again . All I ask is a push so I can do something to make it work .Please help us I do not want my Son Adam to fall into depression again if he does not attend College or if we get evicted  God Bless you all and wish everybody a great life of Happiness ans love    thank you

I had a regular life for 58 years. I went to school, got a job, got married, raised a family, the american dream. I decided at 58 years of age that I would try and start helping those that weren’t quite as fortunate as myself and thought assisting lower income families find the proper medical and/or financial resources to help them cover their everyday needs would be a good thing. It has been over two years now and I was right. It is a good thing. The reception I receive when I visit these families is worth more than I can explain. The look in their eyes…I can’t explain.

Anyway, during these times I (singular now, she wasn’t on the same page) have adjusted to a very meager lifestyle, sharing a very modest apartment with a (male) retiree who is on SSA and lives a similar lifestyle, and not really missing the “other” things that seem so necessary for some. I have used funds from my savings and a small amount from as  part-time insurance agent. (which I was required  to have a license in my state that allowed me to “advise” others about the programs they qualified for, government, grrr).

Up until recently this arrangement was working, albeit very close shaved at times, but livable. I was just informed that a number of previous clients with small policies (almost all less than 5k life) were transferred to another company and my commissions earned would be “charged-back” to future payments. No, not over a period of months as they were accumulated, but all at once! Ouch.

I was unable to offset this amount and have become past due on my rent to the tune of $1550.00 (two months) and am facing eviction if I do not remit payment within 3 days! I have exhausted all lines of credit and family assistance and am at wit’s end about what I can possibly do avoid this and not become homeless.

Since this would obviously affect more than just myself, I am asking for all the families I help…PLEASE, if there is anyone that could help me cover this onetime need it would be most wonderful. I know there is somebody with the passion I have to help others. Please, now is the time.

God bless, and thank you.

I need one month of life, one single month of bills, to keep fighting long enough to keep us in our house. For us to keep going on together.

I never thought I’d be here. My wife, son, and I have beens struggling while we both go back to school, trying to get to an end goal. Struggling, but surviving. My wife, Lois, was diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome  just as she finished her degree. She’s had to get medical care instead of looking for jobs upon graduation, after visiting the emergency room three times in one month for losing consciousness and becoming nearly unable to move at other times.  She’s on the mend, and she’s out there looking for work, but we destroyed any savings we had healing her.  We’re behind on bills, behind on life, and we’re one step away from losing everything. Our home. Our life. Our fight.

I’m working full time, attending summer classes (trying to), finding every opportunity to pick up work, and selling everything I own on ebay. It isn’t enough and I won’t make it. Within a week or so, everything will start to come to an end. I’m fighting so hard and I’ve become a wreck of a man, experiencing stress I’ve never known in my entire life. I’ve always been poor. I’ve never been destitute. I’ve always found a way, but now I can’t. We were one step away from achieving our dreams and now we can’t even put gas in the car or keep the lights on.

I guess I ought to say how bad it is, but it doesn’t seem like much. We’re a grand behind. We’re one month of bills behind. 1,000 dollars that just seems like something I should be able to find a way to do but I can’t.

We don’t have family we can turn to and I don’t know what to do.I don’t know what to tell my son, he sees the stress and the pain (he’s autistic but high functioning, he experiences this in ways I can’t understand).  I don’t know who to be. I don’t know how to save us. This is the last thing I can think of. I don’t even know how it works. I don’t know how to demonstrate my poverty. I don’t know how to tell you that it hurts, it’s painful, and there doesn’t seem to be a light left in the world. I don’t know how to beg. I just want to keep fighting. I just need one month of life to do it.This is my last option. I hope someone is listening. I never understood desperation until today.

Thank you for reading my letter and I hope it finds you well. I am writing this letter in hopes that you can extend your helping hand to me.

I was in a car accident that left me in a wheelchair as it crushed both my feet when the motor came through the dash. It started when a vehicle came into our lane to pass another vehicle and hit us head on. I was cut out of my truck, jaws of life were used to move the motor off my feet and then I was life-flighted to the hospital. I underwent three surgeries within 48 hours.  I went through months of being in a wheel chair and extensive therapy. I still wear walking casts on both legs. Not a day goes by that I am not in a tremendous about of pain.

My husband was military and walked out a week after the accident, he was driving. He also emptied our bank account. I have applied for help everywhere and have disability pending, in which I have recently applied for.  I have found a job that allows me to work when I feel up to it and from home which is a blessing since I now have anxiety attacks when I am in a vehicle. My problem is that I am $1500 behind on rent and utilities, I seem to never be able to catch up and the landlord is tired of waiting. I am at the end of my rope and will be homeless in a week or so. I take care of my granddaughter and don’t know where to turn or what to do. I have reached out to the community offices here to no avail. At 52 years of age this is the first time in my life that I have tried to get help with anything and it is difficult to ask.

I really believe that with your help I can get myself out of poverty and into prosperity. I have started a cake baking business from home but feel that I will have to stop before it gets off the ground due to losing my home. And as my paying job I do transcriptions from home. If you can help in any way I would be forever grateful.

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I really look forward to hearing from you and I thank you for your time.

If you can see it in your heart to assist me I promise to pay it forward once I am back on my feet. Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

Gena

Hi! My name is Nancy, i have sat here thinking of an elaborate way to describe what i have been going through this year. Yet i found the best way is to just speak from the heart. I am 30 years old, i have a nice home and a good job that has been a huge blessing. I work 9 to 5 Monday through Friday, and i go to church Sunday at 10:30 am and 7pm on Wednesday. I know what you’re thinking… what does this have anything to do with my request? Well if it weren’t for my faith, i would probably still be homeless and hungry, hating God thinking there is no point to life. However, i was able to come to grips with the fact that i had a mental disability and that i had to get help. i lost my children, 4 to be exact (same father in case your wondering) due to this and i have been fighting for 5 years to get them back. Please don’t judge me, i am not a drug addict, or someone that asks for hand outs. I struggle with bipolar I disorder I’ve fought for about 15 yrs with this diagnosis which has made every attempt at success an utter failure. Last year i began to take my medication accordingly and i have made much progress, i have been able to keep a job for a year at a time now which was impossible before. Anyways, jump to present time, i have finally proven myself to my family and my children that i am more than a conquerer and that i can do all things though Christ Jesus who strengthens me. I know have my oldest (12) living with me now, he returned a few weeks ago. Im working on getting my other 3 back. it will be a lengthy process but with God on my side how can i lose? I wont lie i have been going through it folks! My flare ups are more and more constant and i fight this everyday. Due to the change in my routine, my moods haven’t been very stable and i find myself drowning. You see, God blessed me and helped me get my 2 bedroom duplex, get my utilities reconnected and my landlord has been very forgiving, even though i owe her about 5 months of rent ($565 per month) i am falling back on my water bill and currently owe $275.47, light bill 100.28$. You’re probably wondering “How if i have a job?” Well my illness has been flared up past the point of no control, my son is with me now and he has frontal lobe disorder which has me going to doctors appts and courts, etc etc. which is what has brought me here today. I had a dream a few days ago, which led me to this site and at church last night, God spoke to me and said “Do you really think i cant pay your rent?” I have believed in Him for so long, i was in a catholic school as a little girl and have had faith larger than a mustard seed. At times its hard to walk by faith and not by sight…but somehow some way, i am hoping that that the right people will read this and help me. I have been fighting the good fight and i am trying to not only be a better person, but a better disciple of Christ. I am being evicted, if i cant come up with the rent by Friday 6-8-18 for at least 835$ which is what i owe as a partial for last month, and the full rent of this month. I proclaim that this request will reach the right people, and that God is on our side. I am willing to send you the account numbers for the bills, I’m not trying to get away with anyones money, ill even post the bills on the pictures as well. I just spoke to the landlord but it has come to the point where she is paying the mortgage out of her own pocket. M desperate, i wouldn’t be here if i wasn’t. So please if anyone can help, anyone at all. If God has brought you out of something, please can you find it in your heart to help us out. I release this post, with high hopes that God will speak to someone out there. Thank you and God Bless.

Hello,

My mother (90 in January 2018) has been in the nursing home since 11/2015.  She needed to be place there because she was become a danger to her self.  I did not have the skills necessary to care for her.  She has a long list of illnesses including, alzheimers, dimentia and anti social behavioral disorder.

When she was initially place in the facility there was a lag in time between the billing and the long term care insurance kicking in.  As you can see it is about same dollar amount as the over 90 portion of the statement.

I am paying what I can in an attempt to get the balance paid down.  The $300-$500 extra per month is no longer suitable for the people in accounting. Her monthly bill is continually paid on time, but the past due balance is not going away quickly enough for them.

Ultimately I would like to clear the 60-90 day balance off.  However any type of lump sum payment that I can give them will help.  I am facing her being evicted from the nursing home and looking at being personally responsible for the debt in the event that something happen to her.  I am the POA.

I am asking that you find it in your heart to help in any way you can.  She has seen a lot of things in her life time I am hoping that eviction is not going to be one of them.

Sincerely,

Jodi

My children Izzabella Faith Love Montoya and Sophia Rosalia Montoya have been taken by CYFD, because my baby mama wouldn’t go to rehab while she was pregnant with our second child and as the days came closer too the do date. Our family doctor urged me that it wasn’t a matter of should she go, she told me she needs to go so that our baby wouldn’t be taken from us and I kept pressuring her to go and she didn’t want to listen to me. She ended up putting a restraining order on me preventing me from being there for my baby’s birth and in the order she made me sound like a monster saying threatened my children when I told her I will make sure she wouldn’t be allowed to be in my childrens lives if she wouldnt get her act right.

At the court hearing for the order the judge wouldn’t hear my side of the story or the truth all she did was listen to the lies and she told the judge I was on drugs and I have medication that is a control substance and the judge made us both get tested and I passed and unexpectedly she was dirty and the judge didn’t like that she was dirty and because of what she said about me, we both lost the ability to have our children. Now CYFD is involved.

The funds will go toward the rental lot fee that’s now 2 months behind and soon 3 months on June 1st, and that’s not even the rent to own that I’ve been paying toward owning our first home $8000 out of $15000 I’ve been paying this since last July and ill lose the house and the money I put into it for my family. And CYFD won’t let us get our kids back if I lose their home. the reason why its behind is because my job was cutting my hours back in February that set us behind but not enough I couldn’t pay for march but then my dad was murdered on March 7th and the stress of her using while pregnant, the hours being cut and my dad dying caused me to lose my job and that put me in a state of trauma and my baby mama wasn’t trying to be there for me in my time of distress. while I still did everything to make her happy and our children. then a friend of mine stole our car which didn’t help with the matter at all making it almost impossible to find a job and make money to pay the bills.

I need to have the money by Thursday the 31st or the sheriffs will come to evict me next week. I’ve worked so hard to get out the streets and have what I needed to take care of my children and to lose it all because of lies is killing me inside so bad it hurts me inside to think that everything will fall apart because all I was trying to do was make sure my baby didn’t get hurt from her mothers bad choices.

I would be extremely grateful for anything that you can help a single father who only wants to make sure his daughters have their father in their lives to be there as a good role model for them like I didn’t have. my dad wasn’t there for me or my mom. I was raised by my grandparents and it affected me but I chose to not let my children grow up the same way I was. Please help me be the male role model that my babies deserve. thank you and God bless anyone willing to help my children.

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read this.

At some point at the beginning of 2017, I started getting really terrible migraines. They were happening a few times a month. The next thing I know they were happening a few times a week and then they were happening every day.

This caused me to lose my well paying job that I had been at for nearly 5 years. I exhausted my FMLA and short term disability. I hadn’t signed up for long term disability because to my knowledge I was a relatively healthy person. I rarely got sick, rarely had headaches, rarely felt anything but normal.

Here I am. 9 months later and I’ve completely exhausted my savings and most of my options. I’m waiting for the government to decide whether or not to approve my Social Security Disability Claim. I applied in February.

I don’t have any family and now I have no friends. People don’t seem to understand what it’s like to be a chronic migraine sufferer and they tend to disappear when someone gets an illness they can’t see. Most just think you’re “faking” it. My question to them is, “Who would fake an illness into poverty?”.

I’ve actually already been evicted. The court ruled in the apartment complexes favor. They’ll red tag my door on Monday and I’ll have until Friday to move out. I’m hoping that I could come up with money before then and work something out so I don’t have to move. I really hope they can work something out for me. I don’t have anywhere to go. I have 3 animals that I love dearly and they don’t have anywhere to go and I couldn’t dream of taking them to the shelter. They are literally my only reason for living at this point. Nobody will love them the way I do. I’ve thought about ending it a few times and every time I think about my animals and how much I love them and how there isn’t anyone else in the world who would love them the way I do.

Please help!

Hello, my name is Terri. I am currently in a position I never thought I would be in. I’m single, & I work hard to take care of myself. Last year, I was in an accident leading to unexpected repairs being needed on my car. Along with my other expenses, it was difficult for me to save the money to do so. Last month, my little cousin-who was like a son to me-died. Him & his little brother lived with me for a few years & I took care of them. Needless to say, this is the most difficult thing I’ve ever gone through. His funeral & services required leaving town & paying for hotel for myself as well as several family members. I was unable to pay my rent & I am now facing eviction. Unless I am able to come up with back rent along with legal fees, totaling 2800, I will have nowhere to go. I’m not used to asking for help, but this is an emergency. I’m not sure where to look or start. The car repairs, along with other expenses has completely overwhelmed me. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

I am a married woman with a disabled husband and elderly mother-in-law.  We just found out we are being evicted because the old landlord sold the house and never notified us.  The new landlord has been making our lives miserable with constant harassment and intimidation.  We need to move right away and do not have the money to pay for the 3 or 4 months needed to pay for a new place and the moving expenses.  We are waiting for a court date, but the stress of this has landed both my husband and myself in the hospital, him because of a heart condition and me from a violent seizure.  We also have a dog that was a rescue and cannot give him up.  We saved him from the abuser that left him beaten severely and chained to a fence in the park to die.  Living in NY is expensive and we need this help so that we can move on and be far away from all the drama this landlord has created.

My husband had finally been getting well after a year of being in and out of the hospital with numerous illnesses.  Many trips to the hospital and nobody being able to pinpoint what was causing his internal bleeding.  Thankfully, we went to another hospital and they found the root of his trouble was a bleeding ulcer and were able to correct the problem.  He almost died a couple of times because it had gotten so bad.  We thought our troubles were finally over and he was finally getting well until this fell into our laps.  Now it is nothing but a nightmare.

We had a good deal with this place, being given the backyard and garage to use as well as a parking space which my husband really needed because he cannot walk very far and parking is impossible in our area.  We found out 3 weeks ago and everyday he calls asking when we are getting out.  Constant texts of when are we getting out.  The construction going on from 7 am to sometimes 9 or 10 at night.  Showing up with a large man hoping to scare us out.  Trying to have bikers scare us away.  Following my husband when he goes out. Knocking away the stairs to the backyard and throwing our property into the garage along with garbage from the downstairs tenant, filling it to the doorway so we could not enter into there either and taking away his parking spot by placing construction bags full of rocks into the driveway.  How much more are we supposed to take?

We need help now before my husband ends up in the hospital again from a heart attack, he has atrial fibrillation and which is why we were at the hospital last week.  If you can find it in your hearts to help, we would be forever grateful.

I am a university student currently working 2 jobs and paying my own tuition, i have no other family to support me and have been failing to make ends meet. Three weeks ago i fractured my wrist and have been unable to work and had to cover several medical expenses with the very small amount i had in my savings. I have already pushed the payment back twice and am now 2 weeks behind on rent if i don’t make the payment in 5 days i will lose my apartment have have nowhere to stay. Exams are in a few weeks and i have no time or money to arrange a new place to live, I’m struggling to study due to the injury and being forced out of my home is making things worse. I’ve scrambled for a loan but without any income have been rejected everywhere i applied. Just when i thought it couldn’t be worse one of my jobs has informed me that they may need to lay me as they are getting more customers and can’t afford to be short staffed. i have tried everything i possibly could and scrambled my brain for a possible solution but i can’t see a way out of this situation. My debt has come to $1150 and anything to make that smaller would be an incredible blessing

Please help me, I don’t know what else to do.

Hello.

I am a mother of two small boys, ages 5 and 8 months, we currently live in Tennessee.

I’m gonna start from the beginning, before moving into the home we have now, we were homeless for 2 Years – shelters, hotel rooms, etc – until we got our taxes and moved and bought a car. Everything’s perfect, untill March. The father of my kids was a secret heroin addict and I somehow didn’t know. (Stupid, I know) and he did go to jail for stealing and possession, leaving me with nothing but my small part time job. March 15th my best friend of 17 years passed away. It’s still a void I cannot seem to fill. I cry every single day over her loss. While I was at her funeral, my home got broken into. Money stolen, my sons tablet, other items that meant something to us… It was devastating. We still don’t know who it was. I also lost my job over her funeral, my boss wanted me there 2 hours early and honestly I had already missed the day before because I was mourning. But because she wasn’t a technical family member, he didn’t allow it. I tried explaining she was my sister, we grew up together, did literally everything together… But I still got terminated. A couple weeks after that bills came in, I pawn the title to my car to get some bill money, and then my passenger Axel breaks… It’s still broken. I have no money, no transportation to get anywhere or find a job.. nothing. I wouldn’t have he cash anyways i can’t pay a babysitter upfront..

My rent is over due, car payment due last week..  I am stuck. And I don’t have anywhere else to go… I don’t have family I can call and save the day, it’s just me. I don’t even have my best friend anymore….

I just need help with my rent, that’s my main concern. We have already been through so much especially my oldest boy. He deserves to always have a home, and I feel the shittiest mom for it… Excuse my language, but that’s the best way I could put it.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. God bless.

hello,

•  my name is Andrew. I am 29 years old and currently live as a single dad of 4 children, my wife passed away 2 years ago in a car accident. Up until 2 months ago I was full time employed with a great job in the oil fields of North Dakota. Back in March I was laid off and its been a struggle ever since. I moved back home to Utah and I can’t seem to catch up. I didn’t have much savings and i fell behind quick.  I have had to sell almost everything I have to keep a roof over our heads and food in our bellies thus far but I find myself needing just one short stretch away from being okay. I try to remain positive I have found a job but my first pay check is a long ways off and I need to pay the rent. My apartment manager has been as gracious as possible but can only do so much. It would mean the world and then some to get help . If I lose my home it will be a much harder hole to crawl out of . I have failed my family and this is my Hail Mary attempt asking for help. I more than willing to pay back or pay forward any help. Thank you in advance.

Hi, this isn’t a easy thing to say. This eviction is all my fault. I made a mistake. And a bad judgement call. I have a roommate who I share rent with. We both pay $600 a piece for $1,200 rent. I have a boyfriend ,she has a boyfriend. I on the other hand gave my boyfriend our rent money. He told me he was stranded in Australia with no money. And he would give it back when he got back in town. I told him that it was my rent money and it was important that he paid me back asap. But he didn’t! This isn’t the first time it’s happened. I fall for it every time. I need help understanding who I am. I’m not perfect. I know I’ll be judged for doing this and I’m already embarrassed enough. I wanted to kill myself because I can’t recognize Who I Am anymore. I hurt people because I let someone control me. I am begging for someone to help me. We owe two months rent, 1200 for April + 300 for legal fees and $100 for a late fee. We owe May rent  $1,200 plus $100 late fee. So far we owe $2,900. I betrayed my roommate. She trusted me. And I use the money for someone who didn’t even care about me. I’m no longer with this man. And I’m trying to start over it over and move forward. I tried everything to get the money. So this is the last thing I’m trying. I know I don’t deserve help but I’m asking anyway.

Thank you

I currently owe my landlord $1530 ( 2 monthly payments of 660 plus a $30 late for each month. And a filing fee of 150 for having a judgment filed against me) in other words I have until the 28th of this month to come up with $1500.

I was recently laid off from Toys R Us (on April 11th) after the company announced it’s Liquidation. Ever since, I’ve been looking for a job and applying for a ton of loans to pay my rent. I’ve found a job, but my start date isn’t until the 14th of this month and because of my horrible credit I can’t get approved for anything. I’ve even took it upon myself to beg celebrities through social media for help. Of course that wasn’t successful. After speaking to my landlord about my situation she’s agreed to extend the 10 day notice to evacuate to premises until the 28th, giving me 20 days instead. But I’m seriously coming to a point of defeat. This isnt the first time a situation like this has occurred. Last year around September, i got into a car accident which lead to me being out of work due to my injuries. I got behind on my payments and was in the same predicament as I’m in now. Unfortunately this time i don’t have family to turn to to help me out. So here i am.. Hoping and praying and BEGGING that who ever reads this will send a blessing my way. Any little bit helps, really. I wouldn’t be as worried about being evicted if it was just me living here but i have 2 dogs that i am NOT willing to give away. So again.. Any little bit helps.

Hello to start off I’m 31 and I’ve battled bipolar and schizophrenia since I was 14 lately I’ve been doing pretty good with all the medicine that they have me on financially that’s a different story I finally got into a place I could afford on disability the landlord let me slide on the deposit. about 3 months in to my new apartment he made a lot of changes and upgrades an increased the rent by $150 that left me short every month for the past 4 months struggling to even pick up my prescriptions my mom is in the process of selling her house and she can help me out in the next few months coming up but I was just served a statement to go to court for an eviction that I owe 1200 dollars for back rent and a deposit. I’ve done the research I get $ 800 a month I paid 200 in child support rent is 475 my phone bill is 35 toiletries 15 and even with $100 I get in food stamps and go to food pantries I have to spend a little cash on food to get through the month I’ve spoken to my landlord he’s a really a good guy he said if I could come up with 800 he would stop the eviction but I have no way to come up with $800 I’m just praying to the Lord that somebody will feel my situation in the disparity I am in and be able to help me if it comes down to it and I have to move I don’t even have enough to move into a new place leaving here is not an option by the grace of God a blessing is sent I will most definitely pay it forward every time I can if not I’m going to be homeless literally in the street. Thank you so much for your time and hopefully someone will be able to reach out God bless you guys
