Dear Generous Donors,

I am a single mother of two who is facing the devastating prospect of losing our home due to a business loan tied to a failed venture. I am humbly asking for your help to protect the only stability my family has left.

Here’s my story: I owned a thriving business generating $3.6 million annually. During a time when I had to focus on family matters, I entrusted a CEO with management. While I was away, this person forged my signature to secure an additional loan of $500,000 and signed over my home as collateral without my knowledge.

Despite all efforts to save the business—liquidating assets, depleting my retirement, and cutting costs—the company ultimately failed after nearly a decade. Now, the loan remains unpaid, and the lender is seeking repayment. If I cannot pay off this loan, my home will be taken.

I’ve done everything I can to mitigate the damage. I am working full-time to support my family, paying off other debts, and stretching every dollar to cover our essential expenses. Selling my home would not fully repay the loan and would leave me and my children homeless in a difficult housing market.

I am humbly asking for any financial assistance you can provide. Every contribution will bring me closer to saving my home and securing a stable environment for my children. This is my last hope, and I would be forever grateful for your generosity.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I’m happy to provide more details if needed.

Sincerely,

Hi, I am indescribably saddened to be writing this plea for help. Our family has found ourselves in a devastating situation. We signed a contract with owners of a house in 2018 to buy the house from them. They were moving to another state and needed to sell their house and were willing to do a rent to own. We agreed on a price and agreed we would pay it off within 12 years. We have never missed a payment and have made all repairs to the house ourselves. We renovated several things as well. We put a lot of work and time and money into this house trying to make it our home.

The sellers started to ask if we thought about getting a loan for the remainder of the agreed upon contract price last summer and we told them no because the amount we agreed to pay them was more than the house was worth at the time but since they were willing to do a rent to own we took that into consideration. We did not want to get a mortgage for 30 years when we were supposed to be able to have the house paid for in the next 6 years. We were both also working on our credit and the sellers were aware of that. At that time they were okay with that.

Several months passed and the sellers started asking again and next thing we know we had an investor show up to our home. He was told it was empty and he could look around and take pictures. He ended up not doing any of that once we talked.

Everything escalated from there. We have been harassed, lied to and taken advantage of.

The sellers stopped making the mortgage payments to the bank around January of this year. We did not find out until the house was going into foreclosure.

We tried everything we could to keep the house. Including trying to let the sellers let us try to get a mortgage loan. Unfortunately we were not able to keep the home. We have been working around the clock for two weeks now to get six years of home stuff moved out. I have had 5 surgeries in the last 6 years and this has taken a toll on me and will continue to. My husband has been working very hard and is the main source of income for our family. There are five of us. We took in my husbands mother in 2016 when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. She has been with us since. I am her main caregiver. We have a 15 year old son and have raised two daughters who are now adults and doing well on their own. We also have my husbands adult nephew who found himself in a tough spot and needed some help to get back on his feet and guidance.

We were able to buy a house from a family friend that had been vacant for a couple of years due to nonpayment of the people that it was sold to, it took two years in court for them to get the people out and the title back in their name. My husband took most of his 401k out to put down on the house. He did not have a lot in his account based on the amount of time he has been at his current job and it has now left us with very little for the future.

The house needs a lot of work. We have spent every penny we have getting it to a livable level and we are not quite there yet. My family has been helping with the fixing up of the house and has been working two weeks straight to help us out. There was more damage than anticipated. We are doing everything possible to prevent being homeless. We still need a lot of material for the house and we just don’t have enough money.

Our current house will be auctioned off on November 20th and we are trying to get all of our possessions out by this Sunday. It has been more than anyone should ever have to go through.

We are good people who work hard. We found ourselves in a horrible situation at no fault of our own except for putting faith in the wrong people. We still plan on going the legal route to recoup some of our loss but that could take a long time and there’s no promise that we will get anything out of it.

We just need help with fixing our new house so we can move on with our lives and get back on our feet. Anything is appreciated. We have deposits and double bills until we are fully moved. We would be grateful for anything anyone can spare. I know this is probably the worst timing of the year to ask for help but are hopeful that there are people who are more than comfortable who are able to help a family in need. Thank you in advance and we will pay it forward when we are able to. I have added my link to cashapp and I have added my PayPal name if that works better, honestly I tried so many times to link it but could not figure out how to make the PayPal a live link.

Six years ago my wife and I finally were able to buy house for our family. I started my career in law enforcement, she became a vet tech, and everything was going right. Then covid hit and my wife got pregnant with our second son. She spent 30 days in the hospital due to medical issues during the pregnancy and had to quit her job. Everything went south and for the last 4 years we’ve been trying to just get paycheck to paycheck. Now, we’re at risk of losing everything we’ve worked towards as the bank started the foreclosure process. Several months went by where we couldn’t make the mortgage payment, and instead spent the money on gas and groceries. And with the policies in place, I’m also at risk of losing my job as a police officer due to being unable to honor my financial obligations. We’re $20,000 in default now and trying to save our home.

Dear friends, family, and kindhearted supporters,

My name is Helen Johnson Todd and I am a 95-year-old widow who has had the blessing of calling my house “home” since 1967. Over these many years, it has been my sanctuary, a place filled with countless memories of family gatherings, celebrations, and the simple joys of life. But as the years have passed, the inevitable wear and tear has caught up with my beloved home.

I’m reaching out today with a humble request. My home is in need of urgent repairs: the plumbing system has deteriorated significantly, requiring a full overhaul estimated at $30,000. Additionally, my pool—a place where my family and I have made so many joyful memories—also needs $30,000 in repairs to be safe and functional again.

Living on a fixed income, I simply don’t have the resources to cover these expenses on my own. These repairs would mean the world to me, allowing me to continue living comfortably and safely in the home I cherish so deeply. Any amount you’re able to contribute would bring me closer to my goal and help me preserve this special place.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your consideration and generosity.

Warmest regards,

Helen Johnson Todd

I am in desperate need of funding to prevent foreclosure of my home. I am a 55 year old nurse who has had some health problems from 2 kidney surgery and heart issues. I am returning to work against doctors orders but I have been in my home for over 5 years and I don’t have anywhere to go if they foreclose. I put my home up for sale hoping that to at least make money on it to have somewhere to go before they foreclose. I am a proud women and have worked all my life and accomplished home ownership in my 50’s. They are going to repo my car because I am 1600 dollars behind. I had to go get food-stamps because I could buy groceries. I am at the lowest I have ever been and this is such a low in my life. I know asking for this is such a blow to the person I am but in threats of foreclosure I am trying everything I have to not let this happen. So I am asking from the bottom of my heart just for enough help to get me back on track. I have worked and will continue to work if my health holds out just long enough to see through this mess. My paypal is Littlesister1. I am in need of 10000 dollars to get things back on track. Any help I can get will mean the world to me

Hello,  I’m an independent artist and started out on a newer endeavor to record, produce and mix my music.  I count Michael Jackson and Prince as the greatest ever to have showed up on the music scene.  I’m a far cry from that kind of success though I have been able to make small amounts on my work but not enough to survive on.  I’ve now come to the point of falling into foreclosure.  I have been given an offer to reinstate for over $14,000 which I hope to get here.  I don’t know the exact lawyer fees but hope that the total sum of the $16,000 that I’m asking will cover it and allow me to keep my home and my studio.   So if you like When Doves Cry by Prince, or Angel by Aerosmith; or if you’re into Sweet Child O Mine by Guns & Roses, Jesus Walks by Kanye, or Earth Song by MJ then please consider helping me out if for no other reason than because we like the same stuff.  If you don’t like some of that music then please help for humanitarian reasons.  Thank you for taking time to read.
-Jay

Good day Philanthropists and wealthy individuals, who are looking for a place to dispense some assistance, good will and life changing dollars.

My wife and I are in dire need of financial assistance as our mortgage holder will not continue with loan modification and has abandoned the mediation process, I am asking for this rather extreme level of assistance as we had lived through both Hurricane Maria which was devastating to both the Island of Puerto Rico and my employment here, Covid 19 which again caused years of severe financial hardship and now physical disability which resulted from a prescribed medication for cholesterol.

While SSI has finally come through with disability benefits they are not enough to make up for the loss of my income over the past several years of scraping by and not being able to pay our mortgage, we find ourselves $180k in the hole and am asking for financial assistance to make up this shortfall so that I can once again make my monthly mortgage payments until which time we can sell the house and relocate elsewhere off island. The Bank has made it’s intentions known to foreclose on our home January 1st 2025.

We both have excellent credit but cannot get a loan to cover the reinstatement amount they are requesting as both payments would exceed my monthly stipend.

We are both firm believers in paying it forward and will do so happily once we can solve this issue with your help.

Thank you and God bless.

I, Gerald Burrell, a disabled veteran, and my disabled wife Jovan, along with our autistic daughter Anaiya, face a dire situation. I lost my job last October due to a short hospital stay, plunging us into financial hardship. With bills piling up and no income, we risk foreclosure. A $60,000 donation would save our home and ensure stability for Anaiya’s care. Your support would profoundly impact our lives in this critical time.

Hi all you happy helpful people!

I’m sure my story is like that of so many others.  The only thing that makes mine unique is that is happening to me, here and now.

My 66 year old husband passed away last year.  He was a proud Marine and a retired police officer.  He was a great guy and very good at his chosen profession.  After he retired from his department, he held some other jobs related to law enforcement, usually in some type of training or as a contracted security escort for valuable shipments.

When he passed away, our whole family was shocked.  He had been struggling with some health issues, but had always come out on top, he was one tough and stubborn guy and I miss him every day.

After he died,  I began to see the extent of all the things he ignored, avoided and didn’t tell me about.  He had no will.  He had no life insurance, final expenses insurance, savings, investments, IRA or any other kind of financial provisions set up for me.  To be quite honest, after I survived two trips to death’s door from Legionnaires Pneumonia 10+ years ago, and becoming disabled due to it, I always expected to die before him.  He also chose to not have a portion of his retirement set aside for me to collect once a month.  I do receive Survivor’s Benefits, but Social Security doesn’t go far these days.  Thankfully I was able to be covered by Medicaid and receive food assistance.  I am beyond grateful for those things,

Which brings me to today.  I found out two months ago that not only had he not been paying our home’s property taxes but that the property had been sold in a tax auction BEFORE he died.  One of the several things he kept from me.  Don’t bother asking why,  I’ve had to set aside that question since understanding it doesn’t change my circumstances and I’m tired of making myself crazy over it.  I’ve been given the opportunity to redeem the property, and have been doing all I can to reach the goal of $18,846.00 by September 9, 2024.  I had to pay the attorney representing the person that bought the property in order to obtain a release or the right to pay the back taxes and keep the home I’ve known for thirty years.  That payment was for $2,668.00 and was not applicable to the back taxes amount.

Today I found out the amount I need to pay is $33,000.00 +.  Being disabled, I can’t work anymore, and because my life was spent staying home, raising kids, caring for my bedridden mother-in-law in our home and being a supportive law enforcement wife, I never worked enough to qualify for Social Security Disability.

My special needs son and I are facing the prospect of having no home.  I know that based on the income I receive I won’t be able to stay in this home forever, but I don’t have the means right now to move.  I’m hoping that I might be able to eventually find my way back to my home state from Southern Maryland so I can at least be near most of my family.

The next few days I  am planning on visiting some organizations locally that have programs to help older people stay in their homes.  I don’t know what all help they may offer or provide, but I want to exhaust all my options.

My goal is to raise the $30,000.00 + to pay the back taxes.  I’ve got almost $16,000.00 from selling anything with any value, including most all of my jewelry, which I absolutely do not mind one bit.  I’d rather have a roof over my head than be sad over not having a cute necklace, bracelet or ring.

I pray that there may be someone out there that would feel compelled to help me keep my home at least long enough to settle my husband’s estate. Once I split the estate proceeds between myself and my husband’s three biological children,  I  can relocate.  Please help me find a way to stay in my home a little longer.  The sad thing about being a family caretaker or volunteer, those jobs don’t pay and you earn no benefits other than knowing you’ve done a good thing by helping others.

Thank you for considering me,
