Dear To whom it may concern,
I am writing for the sake of my husband, he started work as a gas station attendant in 1973. He attended and graduated from High School in Memphis, Tn. immediately following high school he joined the Navy and served 3 tours of duty. After 10 years this country moved into the Carter administration and he was honorably discharged because they were asking him to meet a weight standard he hadn’t been at in 14 years. As you well know it was during Carters administration that they were downsizing the military. After that he then worked in construction for 3 years waiting for an opening and in 1990 he got it, he joined the Memphis Police department and after 28 years, a major heart attack and 4 strokes he was again forced out, but at least this time he was eligible to retire, and that does help some. When he asked the city for a medical retirement he was told it was less than his normal retirement so that is what he did, he just retired. Now just this month we have found out that his long term disability that he applied for was granted, it was the same amount as his retirement and they only pay up to what his retirement should be, so he gets nothing from that policy. Then we were informed that his health insurance through the city is ending on February 28, 2017 and we had to go out and find our own at the approximate same price. What I am asking is this, if we owned our home and car then we would be ok, but he still owes $62,000 on the house that we have lived in for 27 years, and $9,500 on the car. Add in all of his doctor bills and if we just find a way with that things would be ok. He has been declared disabled by a board of orthopedic doctors and also the State of Tennessee. He only collects $1629.92 twice a month, of that $600.00 for health insurance twice a month and then $700.00 a month car and car insurance, and mortgage of $1052.00. Then add in Light, Gas, Water, TV, internet and phone and that leaves us with just 29 dollars for food a month, that doesn’t even cover the gas for his car to make his monthly doctor appointments and other places we have to go . If there is any help at all that you can, it would be greatly appreciated. It just bothers me a man who served his country for 10 years and then gave 28 years of his life to defending his city to be treated like this.
Let me explain how all of this came about, my husband had a stroke in May 2016. While he was off sick he was informed in August that he would receive no paycheck as he was now out of sick time, this was told to him on August 15, 2016 payday. At that time we were in a bankruptcy and this became a missed payment. It was at this point that he was also told by the doctors he would never work again. He lost 70% usage of his right arm, his left has multiple spasms now and he gets dizzy if he has to look up for more than a few seconds. He also has lost from a massive heart attack 60% of his heart, now only 40% works. Now stack onto this he is diabetic and his total cost of prescribed drugs is a little over $200.00 a month. The state of Tennessee has also dictated that he is permanently disabled. All we need to cover all our bills and then be able to live, not real comfortably but at least make ends meet is $100,000.00. I know this is a lot of money but we are not seeking to be rich just to live.
We also for the last 27 years been rescuing dogs and cats and I don’t want to have to give them up after all we have put into them.

Thank you for viewing my letter.

Please, we need financial help to stay in our home.

Hello, my name is Dan. I am a 29 year old married father of 4 in Three Lakes WI and I would like to ask for your help. Here is my story.

When I was 23 or 24 years old I was rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night due to a sickness that was making me throw up violently for hours on end. After about 4 hours I was released with nothing but a doctor telling me that I had food poisoning and I would get better in a few days. During my visit to the ER I was put through many tests like cat scans that built up a heavy bill. At the time I was only playing music and bartending to get by and I could not afford health insurance. My visit to the ER that night cost around 11 thousand dollars. I soon after applied for local aid to help pay my bill. The lady I was dealing with to apply for this help was nasty to my family and to myself. I tried to apply with her 3 separate times and got to a point with this woman that I gave up. I didn’t deserve the disrespect she showed to us. Year or more later my bill turned into a judgment.

When I was a child my family never had much money and I always told myself that I would do whatever it took to give my kids a happier life. So doing this at my point in my life is utterly embarrassing and frustrating to me but I have run out of options and I am begging you to please consider helping me and my family in our time of need. This is what I need help with.

I met my wife in Milwaukee WI at a show I was performing 7-8 years ago. She had three children from a previous marriage and I thought to myself that I would give it a shot. Love does amazing things! Years later she was my wife and I had three amazing step children and 1 of my own. I soon left the entertainment business and focused on supporting my family the best way I could.

My wife found a home for sale she absolutely loved and due to my judgement we couldn’t go and get a home mortgage. We knew the owner of the home and asked if we could do a rent to own contract till we could resolve my judgement. She agreed and we moved into our new home. Our contract is for 2 years with a 3rd year option and now we are getting close to our two year mark. We were recently informed that our extra third year on the contract is not available anymore to us.

Since we moved into our home we have tried so hard to make money and resolve out Dept’s to get a mortgage. I went from night stocking shelf’s at a local super market to becoming store manager at another. I now work as a mail carrier at USPS. My wife has gotten considerable raises at her work and the two of us were finally starting to see decent income into our family but yet the more money we made it seemed like the worse off we were. We no longer qualify for any assistance and pay way more for health insurance. My father passed away this last year unexpectedly and didnt leave a will. Our tax return was completely opposite of what we were getting previous years and it seems like we are digging deeper despite the income we are getting. We budget everything and spend what little money we have on things we need for our family not want.

We are asking for $15,000 dollars to resolve the judgement and help JumpStart our mortgage.

With our deadline to fix my medical judgment and get a mortgage for our home vastly approaching, I fear that we will soon lose our home unless we get help quickly. My kids don’t deserve to go through this. Please donate whatever you can to my wonderful family so we don’t need to worry about the roof over our heads anymore. Even if you decided to not help us, I thank you for taking the time to read this and Peace be with you.

For the past six years I have been trying to get a modification on our mortgage and have been refused by the lender each time. In 2010 they returned my payment because it was $500 short which when called the. And stated it woukd be short the service rep said it was not a problem In Jube of 2010 they sent a letter stating they wanted the full amount of the loan which was $75,000. I went to HUD and even offered to give them $13,000 which would bring my account up to date  all I wanted was the interest rate laowered from 9% to 4 Thry refused and I stated my long quest of law firms each obe promising they could and would get my modification when my uncle passed we were faced with a loss of incone and applied  for a hardship case the lender stated they saw no hardship even when it was proven the payment they asked for woukd leave us with hardly enough to survive. In 2012 my uncle passed away it was in Jan I sent the lender the death certificate as well as another hardship letter in Sept of that year nine months after his passing the lender sent foreclosure papers to a dead man I was on my third law firm at the time and still not getting anywhere In June of that same year I suffered a heart attack and forced to take an early retirement my husband. It’s handicapped he was born with CP we are both on SS and in our 60’s  I have foolishly spent over $35,000 in law fees and no closer to saving the house Now they the lender wants to foreclose the house and sale it

I just don’t know what else to do but I desperately want to save this hone My grandparents built this home in the 1920’s times were hard but they kept it going raised six children three sons who served our country inWW 11 three grandsons who served in the Korean War  two great granddaughters who are doctors one great grandaughter who is a teacher and a granddaughter who is a reverend   All from a man and woman who came America to follow a dream and never knew how to read or eve write their name Yes I’m proud of them and I want to see this hone stay in the family

the lender wants $215,000 but I have a feeling they’ll add more so $230,000 would be enough  to cover their greed

Thank you listening to my story and thank you if you care tomhelpm

My is Maria. My husband and I have been married almost 50 years. We have 4 daughters/ son in laws and beautiful grandchildren. Our home has always been a place of love and family gathering. There are many memories, holidays and even bad times in this house. It’s called life. I would not change it for the world. My husband and I are seniors. We don’t work. My husband had to quit work because he got injured on the job. I had to quit because the company I had worked for at least 15 years closed. That was approximately in the  year 2005/2006.  I have no other skills, therefore I was never able to find work again. So now I’m collecting retirement of  approximately  $600.00/month. My husband receives $1,800.00/month for SS. The only other source of income coming  into the house is assistance I’m receiving from my daughter that lives with us. She contributes $2,200/month. And a small rental that gives us  $1,600/month. We were living this way on this amount for years. One of my daughters was also having trouble making payments on her home. She hired a company  and they were able to get rid of her second loan on her home. With that being said; we hired the same company to help us out with our situation. Starting last year in May 2016, the interest rate on our mortgage per month was going up. So our payments of $2,700.00/month was going up to $3,400.00/ month. The money coming in monthly before the increase was just enough for us to live off from. Being that this company help out my daughter we trusted their every advise. Little did we know that instead of helping us; it made the bank take their time and at the end they are about to take our home. This company advise us not to pay the bank. Per the company, this would give the bank chance to see that we were struggling with the new monthly bill. This was not even including the utilities, groceries and monthly expenses. With this new bill and after all is paid off, we will be living on approximately  $230.00/month. We were hoping for a mortgage modification. The bank refused.  So now by the end of this weekend we are asked to pay up $57,254.72 to reinstate our loan. I only have $30,000 I still need. I the other half. If I’m correct, thre bank will just give me a bit more time to come up with the rest. But I’m not counting on it. If they do give me more time, I  will be able to give them the money. Then I will still not only pay the new mortgage amount but I will also have to pay back what I just borrowed and with interest. We were advised that if we pay for a year without missing a payment then we can look into possibly refinancing our loan. Untill then the bank gets their money and we will be left struggling for a year. With no guarantee of a refinance next year. Last thing I would like to say is that during this whole time we have been trying to work out something with the bank, I  told them that my husband is a army vet. And last week or so we just found out he was diagnosed with lung fibrosis. No cure. The people at the bank,, well not all don’t seem to care. I’ve come to the conclusion that all we are is just a number and it’s all about money. And nothing else. I  just want to thank you for the chance given to me to write you this letter.  If ever given the chance to be selected. My wish is to keep my house, comfort measures for my husband and at least $1,500.00/ month to live off of. That is not including the $30,000.00 I  need to pay back with in the next 3 months. My last request would be quite ambitious. Since we didn’t pay mortgage for a year we ended up owning about 100 grand. I’m not asking for that. But it is a wish. Right now $1,500,00-2000,00 per month for the next year and the 30k. To pay back the person lending me the 30k. Once again thank you so much and God bless.

Sincerely

Maria

I just don’t know where to turn or what to do anymore. I’m hard working and have never owned a credid card or accumulated strange debt. I’m an American living and working in the Netherlands the last 13 years. My Dutch husband (now best friend ex) had his own business. During the financial crisis everything went South.  We ended up paying the tax man who was at our door every Monday and even threatened to cease our dog at one point, instead of the mortgage. We were in trouble fast and sought help. The system was not prepared to help and was also making cut-backs on programs. We fell behind on all of our bills which turned into more fees and more fees. We were eventually foreclosed on and the housing market had taken such a hit we were left with a loss of just over 100k. We have worked hard to reduce this to 70k at this point but are still stuck in a system, almost 3 years later, that hasn’t helped. I refuse to run back home and leave this problem with my hard working ex. But I still come home and find threatening letters in the mailbox. I pay I pay I pay but it’s never enough and it never seems to end. I’m living alone here and I can’t even get home for a visit. I just need something to give. I need help. I didn’t create this, I didn’t ask for this, but this is what it is and I’m working like crazy for a solution. I know life is good. I can almost see the sun behind the clouds. I have so much to offer this world to give back but feel so handicapped because of this situation. It affects every avenue of your life. I’m scared, I’m tired, but I’m hopeful and grateful. My situation is something I found myself in like accidentally falling into a well. We worked hard, we’re honest, good, and giving. We were responsible and unfortunately found ourselves at the bad end of the economy. Regardless, I’m still hard working, responsible, honest and giving. I’m not asking for a miracle, just a break, a moment to breathe. Id like to experience kindness and goodness for once; I guess the opposite of this hard reality. I’ll happily accept a sincere hug! :-) This was the cut and dry version of this fearful nightmare of this last three years that turned our world upside down and tore it apart. And my husband and I? We wished we had never divorced. We’re still working together though thick and thin to get through this. And I’ll faithfully stand by him the whole way. Thanks for listening (whoever made it this far). Jennifer

I was in a horrible accident which left me disfigured and totally disabled from working and many activities of daily living, and it got worse when my ex and I had our kids.  He left me high and dry when both kids were still in elementary school and has made it his life`s mission to leave me destitute.  He refused to give me a penny in spousal support after 15 years of marriage and successfully used the family courts to further his cause for almost 9  years.

My kids and I through no fault of our own are living below the poverty level.  I haven`t been able to see a dentist in about 7 years as I can`t afford it even though a crown fell out of my mouth.  I may face the loss of all my teeth if this continues.  After our rent and other expenses are paid there is no money for anything extra and now a property I own is in jeopardy.  I had hoped to sell the place but the only person interested is now playing games and trying to hold up the sale for many months.  That was my last hope!  If I don`t find help soon I will lose the property and my entire investment, which is all I have for my retirement.  The government has said I can`t get vocational rehab because my disability is too severe, it`s considered catastrophic.  So I can`t afford to lose my investment in the cabin!

I don`t have any idea how to pay my taxes this year and it isn`t even a place I can stay in year round!  I bought it when I was financially sound but the custody battle to fight for my kid`s safety cost me close to $500K.  That was money I was awarded due to my horrible injuries and it was all justly taken from me trying to prevent my kids being used as pawns and abused both physically and mentally.  We need the funds in the property to enable us to stabilize our housing situation.  Right now our rent takes a crazy amount of what we have coming in, 35% in total.  By the time we pay our hydro and tenant insurance it doesn`t leave much.  We need to wait for a qualified buyer but if the taxes aren`t paid on the property we are going to lose it.

Please donate anything you can to help us.  I am only in my 50s too young to lose all my teeth.  I was a faithful wife and it was my ex who stepped out on me, not the reverse.  He was abusive to myself and our kids yet now he lives a decent lifestyle and is able to afford luxury holidays every year while we go without basic  necessities and he has never paid A RED CENT in spousal support although I became disabled during our marriage.  The system here won`t help us for some reason, my pleas for them to collect the money he owes, which is thousands, have fallen on deaf ears.  He is supposed to lose his license and passport but they refuse to help.  Recently even his child support cheques have started to bounce, which cost me hundreds in NSF fees.

The saddest part is my kids, they are good kids who really did nothing wrong.  They both go to school every day and are trying to build a future for themselves after a miserable 7 years being forced to live with my ex, much of the time they were forced to sleep in an unfinished basement because he was fleeing the jurisdiction to avoid the authorities.  Now we still have barely anything, we almost never get new clothes, our newest computer is 7 years old and too slow for them to do their classwork so they are forced to do it at school.  My ex pays the bare minimum and has refused to pay a CENT for their medical or dental bills although he was ordered by a Judge to pay most of it.  I struggle to pay for all of their needs and go without any services for myself.

Aside from my dental problems, I have high blood pressure and need medication but I can`t afford any prescriptions.  I have no insurance and all I can afford is my Ventolin for my asthma.  My lungs were damaged in my accident and I am very prone to getting chest infections and even affording antibiotics is near impossible.  Last time I got walking pneumonia I was forced to wait a couple of months til it cleared on its own.  Next time I may not be that lucky but $100 for a bottle of pills isn`t affordable for me any longer.  One day this may end up killing me.  Recently I had to stop paying the premium for my life insurance because we need the $50 a month for food.

In my health condition, I can`t keep going back to court.  I also have a parent in a nursing home and from visiting I got bronchitis twice in three months and have been too weak to do much at all.  I do any online work I can find to try to earn extra money but lately it has all but dried up.  I feel so hopeless and almost suicidal lately.  I only exist for my kids, to try to somehow help them get settled.  I know I won`t likely live to be very old, but right now my life is a misery.  I don`t know what to do because there is no one who would probably take a chance on hiring me even if I was in good enough health.

Any help someone can give us we would be so grateful for.  I used to share housing with family but that ended last year when they were put into a home and now all my living expenses have doubled.  Lately I don`t sleep well most nights I am up worrying a lot and sometimes my chest hurts badly from all the stress.  I don`t have access to a therapist I trust and most of my friends burned out on my problems long ago.  I have no family to turn to for help.  Any assistance would be most appreciated.  God bless!

I guess I can start by saying I don’t deserve  pity from anyone and it’s up to your mercies to give if you  decide. After years of being unhappy with my job I decided to  quit and find something that would let me have my mind at ease instead of being stressed all of the time.Although it was a good decision mentally, it put be in an income bracket far below where I  was  at. I survived with unemployment and a part time job but the bills began to pile up.I have been squeeking by by robing Peter to pay Paul,but it all came to a head this week when my Mortgage payment and paying a couple of more bills has put me not only in the red,but my paycheck won’t even cover the negative balance in my checking account. I have worked hard all my life but this past year seems to have been the hardest I’ve seen for a long time. I am at the point  where I don’t know what to do except ask if there is anyone who is willing to give me some money to get out of this rut and back on track.I know ot seems like much to ask, but willingness to humble myself is half of the battle, asking so that I may receive . I could use about  $10,000 no more,but really anything would benefit me. I work as a caregiver in an assisted living facility and I love my job, I  don’t want to go back to just working  because I feel that I am making a difference in these people’s lives  and mine as well. So I am reaching out to those who are able to help so maybe I can do the same for someone else in the future. THANK YOU even just for reading this and giving me your time and consideration.

Good day.

My name is Renske. I am staying with my mom, along with my husband and 2 children. I have been staying with her for 4 years now.

My father passed away 8 months ago, he had a hart-attack and was taken away 3 days later. Now we are left with unpaid debts as he didn’t die of natural cause as some of the insurance companies doesn’t pay for heart-attack. We do not have enough money in the trust, as they didn’t have life insurance on the estate.

Due to this fact the bank want the house and all outstanding debts to be paid in full by the end of February 2017. Me and my husband are working but we aren’t earning enough to even afford to rent a place.

I am asking for any donations so that I could help my mom so that she doesn’t have to sell the house, the last place my father was. I know that God has a plan with everything, my heart is breaking to see my mom struggle and to think she has to sell everything and start new. My father use to race pigeons, we are 4 daughters and no one of us could really afford to go ahead with the racing. I do love the sport, but we had to sell them all. It was my fathers hobby and he loved it till the day he died. I really didn’t want to but we were left with out any other resource.

I will never get him back. He loved us with all his heart and when he use to talk to us over the phone, and I will tell him I miss him he would cry. I miss him so much and if I could help my mom I would no he would be proud of me, and it would be a true blessing. God will help me to get a better job and to provide for my kids.

I am asking with tears in my eyes, could you find it in your heart to help my mom so that she could keep her house please. She has already lost my father please don’t let her loos her house as well.

Thank you
Renske Pretorius

Greeting to everybody!

It is hard for me to write this letter but I have to write it…

Little bit about myself.

My name is Aleksey Korkhov, I was born in Baku city, capital city of Azerbaijan and was living there until 2006.

When I was 13, I became an orphan, have lost my mother and grandmother in accident. Then I 12 years was living with family of refugees from Nagorny karabakh.

It was hard for me to live in Azerbaijan since I was a child, because I could nod accept Muslim culture and traditions and was persecuted for my nationality and religious convictions (I am Russian, protestant). When I was 25 I moved to Ukraine.

I had hard way while going to this goal. I had a few times to sleep on the floor in a public place (chess-club), I did not have regular job, every 3 months I had to cross the board of Ukraine.

Right now I am married, have got three kids and we’re waiting for a fourth baby to be born in about three months.

At present time because of coming baby and existing danger for health and life of my daughter I decided to move to another house.

I live in an old house,  that was built 100 years ago. Considering this and extremely difficult financial situation of people in Ukraine, it would be very hard to sell our part of a house. Also it would be difficult to buy a house with more large area – may be in some village or in town but without communications (electricity, gas, water) or with some of them.

That is why I decided to ask for support in Internet.

That is why I decided to ask for help in Internet – in order to get additional finances and have opportunity to buy a small house with all communications, not very far from bus-stop and school.

Today there are more than one million of refugees in Ukraine… I understand that these people have much more needs than I – many of them are living in rented houses, in bad conditions and don’t have even necessary things…

Nevertheless, I hope that I could get at least small financial support through this letter and could buy another place to live, where I could live more safety, have own yard and opportunity for a future enlargement of house.

I am not lazy body – I am trying to provide everything necessary for my family. I know on a different level 10 languages and perform translation of documents and texts though Internet. But I don’t have a diploma of translator and could not perform orders of huge companies or translation agencies from USA or Europe, and income from other orders which I get hardly allow me to cover expenses for public utilities and buying food. Because of poor health of my wife I can’t work outside of my house or in another city.

I believe that person could ask for money from people whom he(she) knows or doesn’t know only for purpose to provide health and life, after he have tried all other means to solve these problems.

I don’t seek for luxury. We don’t have a car, smart-phones, I delay attending a dentist though tooth pain worries me. Also I have to treat chronic bronchitis which could progress into bronchial asthma. Beef, cheese and bananas are delicacies for our family. We buy clothes in “second-hand” shops and new shoes are bought only for our kids. I don’t complain to these troubles, now many people have difficulties and many have much more troubles then we do.

I don’t give number of my account in this letter. If You have a desire to support me financially, you could mail me to learn details and number of account. I guarantee that finances would be used only for buying a house or equipping it. I could send picture a house or copies of documents confirming the buying.

I ask to forgive me if this letter somehow disturbed you or took Your time…

Of course, I congratulate all of you with Christmas and New Year! For many people it is the time of miracle. I wish all of you to have miracle in a coming 2017 and hope that God will show a miracle to our family.

Sincerely,

Aleksey Krokhov

I have been working on trying to get my home out of foreclosure after illness and unfavorable loan terms but two years of fighting and I’m almost on the right track again. As luck would have it now my roof is showing signs of wear and we are having a rough time getting insurance to cover our home because of the roof condition. If you can help me and my family replace our roof that would be a tremendous lift for us. We would be able to use what limited funds we have to take care of our three young children.

Im not sure where to start as my family has always been able to provide for ourselves as well as help others until 2014. The worst of our bad luck streak started June 22, 2014 with the emergency c-section of my daughter. I was bleeding internally and blood pressure dropped very very low. About 1 hour after the c-section they had to do emergency surgery as I was still bleeding internally.  I underwent 5 blood transfusions in little over a week. We were released from hospital 3 weeks later. My husband had to stay ams help me since i have no family as i grew up in foster care. My husband went to work end of sept and came home for the weekend of oct 15. My husband left out around 6pm on Oct 15, 2014  to drive 2 miles down the road to gas station. He never made it. He hit a deer flipping the equinox several times and throwing him through windshield. He had surgeries within the first 2 weeks and doctors all said he was lucky ro be alive. During this time we filed for temporary disability and still nothing. I have applied for job and job and no luck. I am getting by just on selling my clothes and items i have just to feed and clothe the 3 of them. Now we are facing foreclosure. We used saving to pay morgage until April 2015 when it ran out. We owe little over $8000 and have tried government assistance, work from home, any kind of work and no luck. My dream is save our home and get back to how we were. My 5 year old gets picked on now because at school she wrote one of her dialy journals about God helping her mommy and daddy save her house. I hate that she has over heard phone converstaions and collection people at the house. We use to have it all before the wreck and now it seems i cant even keep them clothed. It saddens me so much to know shes picked on or that she doesnt understand whats going on. My only dream ia to save our home. We owe a total of like $67,000 but are behind $8000. We have until may 2nd 2016 since my husband went to court this am (march 15, 2016).  Please help save our home.  I have tried everything I can think of only to fail. We didn’t get approved for the FHA home forecloser fund because the land was not in our name at time we bough it but instead in my husbands grandmother name. I have tried grants and all.  I was a foster kid and had nothing I do not want my kids to go through what I did. This will make a great impact on our family to have this stress relieved and pur home back full of laughter and smiles. To be able to get out and provide clothing for my kids. My oldest being shes in school she needs it the most. Right now she has 2 uniforms and i wash them each day she comes home from school. Her soles are worn out in her shoes. I know i have no room to ask for help as some have less then myself but i am not a lazy person. I will work to provide, I will do what it takes, but our streak of bad luck just hurt us to where I can not catch us up.  This is my family dream thank you. 

This is Netty. She had a goofy sense of humor, the fashion sense of a hippie, she was convinced Bigfoot was hiding around every corner, and I even convinced her once that a rotating traffic camera in the distance was a UFO—I was a bored teenager who’d been stuck in the car for a week. She was also a kind and loving person who was unfailingly generous with what little she possessed.

Over the years she began “adopting” people from the local area. If you needed a hot meal and a bed for a few days, a week, a month, or longer, she would open her small home and her big heart without reservation or expectation. She never asked anyone to “pay her back” for her kindness; she even went so far as to refuse money, if she knew the person offering it couldn’t really afford to spare it.

On June 15th, in the early hours of the morning following a frantic 911 call, she was rushed to the hospital and died shortly thereafter; she was only 64 years old. She is gone far too soon, and her loss will ripple through the lives of her loved ones and family, both blood and adopted, for years to come. The outpouring of support from family and friends has been overwhelming, and we thank everyone for their kind words during this difficult time.

Like so many people today, before she passed away, she was struggling financially and had fallen behind on her tax payments. While she was a wonderful woman, she was also quite proud, too proud to ask for help—especially financial help—when she needed it. She didn’t want to cause anyone around her worry or stress, so she kept her troubles to herself.

Now, the family that remains in the house—her older sister Darlene, her son David, his fiancé Riana, and three “adoptive” children she opened her doors to—are all under threat of losing their home.

We’ve already lost a wonderful woman. Please help us save the home of the people she loved.

The total amount of taxes due is $7,164. That said, a payment of $2,007 by September 1st will be enough to keep a roof over everyone’s head.

Thank you for reading our plea, and from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for any donation you’re willing to make. If you’re unable to make a donation, please share this story

Im Isaac, my wife and i are currently unemployed but still searching for jobs. We had a baby just a month before i lost my job and now things are just going down-hill. My wife and i were evicted since we could not pay rent on time and moved into a guest house with the little money we had. The guest house caretaker has been good to us since we moved in because the owner of the guest house was out of the country. So I had a little breathing space to search for a job but to no avail. Unfortunatelty the owner is back and we are now facing definate eviction, this time with nowhere else to go. We have no money to get our own house, and hardly any for our daily needs. The guest house caretaker was the one who gave us money for our daily needs, food and other essentials. We now have to find money to pay all our debt to the owner of the guest house who is threatening to fire the kind caretaker who took care of us and that is a burden which would weigh heavily on our hearts. We cannot afford for him to lose his job because he is too old to find another job since he well past retirement age. Please we need help to save our family from ending up homeless and save the job of a kind old man. My baby girl is now three months old and she still lives in a guest house, i want her to live the type of life any parent would want to give their child but it seems a long way from reality. I want my wife and kid to be happy and feel safe. I cant even sleep at night with all this thoughts running through my mind. Life seems so bleak now and i have never been this depressed in my life. The old caretaker is also very worried and does not have peace of mind and we are to blame. Please help us, we need donation to pay off the debt befor the end of July. And also some money to get our own place to stay. Our time is almost up and im so sad i never found this site till now when things are now extremely hard. Please help us if you donate and you know anybody else who is in the position to help please let them know. You help is greatly appreciated. Thank You

We live in Thailand and we have financial problem with our house. Please help us to save our home!
Our home is about 25 years old. We have 3 people in our family. First is mom (single mom) with a nanny job. Her salary is 12,000 baht/month (is about $354 USD). Next is me, a daughter who is 2rd year in University and 16 years old son at Grad 11. During the University semester I toke some part-time job which is 3,000 baht/month (about $88 USD) and now is a Summer time for the University, I do not have to take any course during this summer. Well, I get another part-time job which is more money than during the University semester time. I get about 7,000 baht/month ($207 USD).

Since we got some letter from the Thai court about our house financial debt at the begging of this year, according to the letter the court said ‘We have to pay to the bank 117,000 baht ($3,465 USD) within 15th August, 2015 only.’ So we try really hard to collect some money as much as we can from our income and now we already have 65,000 baht (1,925 USD) on hand + some unearned revenue and we still need another 52,000 baht ($1,500 USD). Please help us!

I don’t really beg $1,500 USD full amounts from only 1 person. I beg you guys only 1 person per$ 1or$2 USD is enough for me, but if you really can with fully amounts please be kind to do so. It would be really appreciated, if you donate us some amount and shared to other people to help us more. I do promise that after I have graduated from University I will save some amount of my salary to continue help other people like you guys help me. Thank you so much.

We are about to lose our home due to foreclosure. We are looking for any help to get a large van, RV, or other cargo vehicle to serve as a home until we can find another. We are legally in the right on the foreclosure issue, but the credit companies want our house. We would like to buy a Mobile Home but my husband and I are both disabled yet only receive one SSI check. We have tried to find work we can do, but without transportation that is not happening. We home school so the kids can get an education anywhere. We are willing to work off any vehicle or loan. We have no family to ask for help or friends in a position to help us either. We want to start over in a new place with a better home and no mortgage over us. We had an American dream that is now a nightmare. We figure no more then $30K will set us up,but have no problem getting it over time. A vehicle is needed ASAP. A friend acquired a good, used RV for $15K. That is something that we would like to have the option to get as well. We have struggled with damages to our home since the Katrina hurricane and fought our insurance to fix our home. They refused and the bottom line is where we are now. A few years ago my husband was almost killed in a car accident that cost us the only van we ever owned. Alabama had loose laws then and we got nothing for our damages/injuries and no more van. Life has been horrible ever since. Now we have run out of options and have no choice but to be temporarily homeless at worst and temporarily in flux at best. We need help and soon

Hi.
I am a follower of Rhonda Byrnes “The Secret.”  I try to help others and spread positive energy.  Unfortunately, along the way I have been used to the point where I have nothing left to give and cannot even afford my own expenses. I am seeking the kindness of strangers to help me from losing my condo and independence. Recently I’ve taken in three homeless roommates and let them live with me in hopes of making the mortgage. Epic backfire that ended up a nightmare. I have been a nervous wreck in my own home for months. Finally got last freeloader out!  I had to put my 21-year-old cat to sleep this month, so I am very sad about that too. My job is very, very stressful and depressing. I’m self-employed and can barely get any work, and I wait 45 to 90 days to collect money.  Sometimes I can’t collect at all because clients don’t pay.  I have hit the hardest times of my life. My family has chipped in a lot but can’t help anymore.  I have been homeless before and had to stay with family. I am praying and hoping on the kindness of strangers to help dig me out of this financial hole I am in. Not expecting a whole lot, but right now I can’t even afford train passes to get on train and go to work. Can’t afford electric or toilet paper or groceries. All credit cards maxed out and I owe IRS . I worked super hard to get this place and don’t want to lose it all to worst year of my life. I have helped so many others in my past. I gave till it hurts… hoping some kind strangers will see this and help me out

At this present moment today I am Struggling Hard Financially, I lost My Job May 8th 2015 due to the Bad Economy, I am Unemployed now still, and I am a Home Owner, trying to Keep My Home from being Foreclosed on, and I am living Alone All By Myself in a Small condo Apartment, and I am dealing with a Bad Mortgage situation with my Mortgage Company called “Ocwen Mortgage Company” located in West Palm Beach Florida. Due to the Bad Economy I am unable to find any Permanent Job, and Ocwen Mortgage company is refusing to Lower my Interest % Rate on my Mortgage Loan, and they are Charging me an 8% HIGH Interest Rate ever since May of 2014, and now it is July 2015, and whole year later, and they have taken ALL of my money in HIGH Interest Rate Payments that have Prevented me in order to Live, or in order to Survive and Eat Any adequate Food. I am now hungry, I have NO food, and I have NO Money -0-. I am truly “Destitute” now.  Ocwen Mortgage Company has denied, and refused 2 of My Important Loan Modification Requests in 1 Year. I have filed a Complaint with the Better Business Bureau, and Consumer Agencies, but I have NOT ever been compensated for all of the money that I have LOST, paying to Ocwen Mortgage Company. Paying an 8% HIGH Mortgage Interest Rate for 1 year now and 12 months, and paying a $885.00 Mortgage Payment from Ocwen Mortgage Company has caused me not to be able to afford food, and caused Muscle weakness or loss of muscle function (paralysis) that affects both sides of my body. In most cases, the muscle weakness starts in the legs and does spreads to the arms. Spasms of skeletal muscles are most common and are often due to dehydration. Smooth muscles that are within the walls of hollow organs can go into spasm, causing significant pain. It may take only a few hours for my most severe symptoms to appear. But weakness that increases over several days is also common.

From NOT being able to eat enough food daily, If my muscle spasms are especially painful, or if they do not resolve or if they recur, medical care may be needed. From Paying an 8% HIGH Mortgage Interest Rate for 1 year now and 12 months, and paying a $885.00 Mortgage Payment from Ocwen Mortgage Company, and then me NOT ever being able to afford enough food, sometimes I have noticed at times that my Breathing temporarily stops during the night, either from lack of food, or from increased financial stress that leads to Asthma. Paying an 8% HIGH Mortgage Interest Rate for 1 year now and 12 months, and paying an $885.00 Mortgage Payment from Ocwen Mortgage Company has caused me a lot of Physical Ailments. Ocwen Mortgage Company has made it IMPOSSIBLE for me to Live, or me to Survive by any means. I can NOT even afford basic living necessities each month. (Medications, Health Vitamins, Clothes, Shoes, Cleaning Products, Insurances, Utilities, Home Repairs etc.) I am poor, with very little money, and I have very limited tiny bit of income living All Alone inside of a small Apartment. I have no other means of sufficient support to afford my Basic Living Expenses monthly along with even getting my Asthma medications. Because of the OVER Excessive Charge of 8% HIGH Interest Rate from Ocwen Mortgage, My Mortgage and Condo Fees have now become LATE, & PAST Due. I have NO Money now even to Pay My $200.00 Condo Fees. I have a 2nd 6% Mortgage Payment of $191.00 a Month to Pay each month, and I am UNABLE to now pay my Monthly $200.00 Condo Fees for 2 Months, because Ocwen Mortgage Company is Charging Me 8% Interest Rate that equals an $885.00+ a Month HIGH Additional Mortgage Payment. Ocwen Mortgage Company is FORCING me to go without Asthma Medication, and Ocwen Mortgage Company are Forcing me to go without Food/Groceries some days of the month.

Many days for the past 4 years I have only been able to eat just 1 meal a day or ½ a MEAL a day because that is all that I can afford. At this point from not being able to afford food, my tissues in my remaining muscles {arms and legs} Hurt Severely whenever I try to walk or even move. Pain in the legs can occur as a result of conditions that affect bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, nerves, or skin. Typically, the pain is a result of tissue inflammation that is caused by Lack of Food. Not being able to eat enough food daily can cause inflammation to any of the Tissues of the Leg and lead to Severe Leg Pains, and Arm Pains. Ocwen Mortgage Company has Over-Charged Me, and Over-Charged Me over $600.00 Extra Each Month, with an 8% Mortgage Interest Rate within the past year and for 12 months now to the point that My Health now is in Real Serious Jeopardy, and My Lungs are in a lot of PAIN daily,  and my Lungs are almost near Total Collapse/Failure from having many Asthma Attacks frequently, or daily without being able to afford Proper Prescription Medications. I have very little Lung Compactly left from having many different Asthma Attacks over the past year now. If I have to be rushed to the Hospital, with my Next Severe Asthma Attack, it will be possible that I will have to be put on a Ventilator/Respirator to Breathe in Order to Survive. “I am wondering, Can you please to Help me out Financially?” Please. I am really hurting. I am in a lot of pain. I believe even the smallest act of caring for another person is like a drop of water -it will make ripples throughout the entire pond. Never underestimate the Difference YOU Can Make in the Lives of Others. “I believe the purpose of life is not to just be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have purpose make some Helpful difference in someone’s Life. Nothing exalts the soul or gives it a sheer sense of buoyancy and victory so much as being used to Change The Lives Of Other People. “Make each new day count by Helping Someone Or Just Making Someone Smile.” Those who are less fortunate, often don’t want to ask for help. Hard times hit all of us at some point. Enjoy your good fortune. But Let Your Fortune Help Others, People helping people makes this World a Better Place.” Eleanor Roosevelt said: “Since You Get More Joy out Of Giving Joy to Others, You Should Put A Good Deal of Thought into the Happiness That You Are Able to Give.” Booker T. Washington said: “Those Who Are Happiest Are Those Who Do The Most for Others.” Norman Vincent Peale said: “When you become detached mentally from yourself and Concentrate on Helping Other People with their difficulties, you will be able to cope with your own more effectively.” Albert Schweitzer said: “The purpose of human life is to serve, and to Show Compassion and the Will to Help Others.”

“I am scared half to death of losing my Home. I would like to know if I can please depend on you for some/any financial support. I am trying to raise money to save my home. Can you Help save my Home? Can I count on your support? The real point is that we all need help somewhere along life’s path whether we think we will or not. And, if you are the one giving and helping, just remember this: no matter what happens later, you will always be secure in the fact knowing that you have remained strong and true to assist those that need your help. “Without enough Food, each day now I can feel extreme PAIN coming from as my Body is eating away at the Muscle Tissues that are within my Arms and Legs, in order for my Body to survive up to this point. From Me not eaten sufficiently, nor able to afford enough food monthly, I feel that I have wasted away to almost nothing. Some days I am physically dying without Food or Sleep, and it is a Painful, Lonely place to be. I am almost to the point of having a Nervous Breakdown. Every day is a matter of Survival.” “I am compelled desperately to WRITE and ask for HELP from anybody.” I would like to know if anyone would please send me money to buy my Prescription Asthma Medications? I would like to know if anyone would please send me money to pay my Mortgage Payment? I would like to know if anyone would please send me money to buy Food to Eat?

I am please begging and asking people, anybody for some financial support.

Please help me. Please Donate.

Your donation towards this cause will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, I never thought I would be in this situation, but I didn’t know where else to turn to. First, my mother has six kids, me being the last. As one of her sons, I feel obligated to try and help, due to the fact she has helped us so much already. I have been away for a few years and gave almost all my money, but I’ve only been digging further into debt on my own end. My mother is a giving tree of kindness, and well my siblings and I have brought her financial side, down with the low circumstances. I am trying to use my name in her home to save it, but I only have the credit to save it but not the money to get her out of debt. The debt is what is keeping it impossible to truly help her, we put out one fire for two more to grow. Using credit cards to pay for other credit cards is what makes it feel like it will never end. If I was able to receive a donation, any amount would make a difference. I have been trying ever since being overseas, now it’s even harder to bare in person. The home was recently broken into and they took so much, electronics, money, and memories. After my grandmother’s passing on the same day of the break-in, my mother has not been the same and I’ve been trying to relieve her pain when it at least comes to the home where she lays her head. I’m not sure what else to tell, except I am wishing, actually praying for a miracle. Working three jobs wasn’t in the plans for our whole lives, especially while I was serving in the military. I truthfully and sincerely would be in anyone’s debt and appreciation for who may be able to help in this time of need.

PLEASE HELP, EVEN $1.00.

I am in a dire situation and I am looking for any help one can give. I am 52, almost 53 this month. I lost my profession of 25+ years and my job of 14 years in 08/2014 due to illness/disability.  I have lost my retirement and savings trying to keep my head above water (house payment, utilities and car insurance).  In the process, I tried to get help through HEMP for my house and they denied me b/c I have no income coming in, which seems really unbelievable; if I had income, I would not be in this situation.  I have had my mortgage for 9 years on my own, now I am going to lose my house if I cannot get $722/month caught up for 6 months.  My dog of 14 years is suffering from lung cancer and that is a huge source of stress as well, I do not have any money to help her, which kills me.  Luckily, right now, she is not suffering and is doing well; eating, drinking, playing, but I know it is just a matter of time.  In the state of Pa., you get no help financially if you have no children; I did all the right things all of my life by not having a gaggle of kids to suck off the system, got a college education, and several other coursework/trainings.  I have been working since I was 9 years old and paying into the system since I was 14 years old ($82,000+ between payments from my paychecks into the system and my employer’s payments into the sytem).  I am alone and have no one else to rely upon for help.  I receive no disability, money from my ex, no unemployment and have exhausted all avenues of trying to support myself.  I have taken pretty much all I had that was worth anything to an auction and got pennies on the dollar for what they cost (gulp, that was hard to watch). I had pretty things that my ex-husband gave me in our marriage that I have had to part with and a car that I did not want to sell, but had no choice.  I have 1 car and thank GOD it is dependable, but if I cannot make my car insurance payment in the next couple of days, my license will be suspended and I will not have any way to get around, which I do not often do, just mainly to physician appointments and the grocery, which is pretty much over now, as I am out of money.  If my license is suspended, I am going to have a terrible time getting insurance again (what I am told by an agent) and it will cost me a lot more each month.  Seriously, I have pennies in a jar as my only money, probably $3.00 worth.  There is nothing more scary than to be without money at all.  If I do not come up with money for my electric, gas and water/sewer/trash, they will be shutting them all off within weeks, some sooner.  I AM VERY SCARED AND HAVE NO HELP.  I am a single woman (I have stopped dating 2 years ago; I have no desire to drag anyone into my situation and I am NO catch right now.  I have lost all interest in even meeting anyone, and any of the hobbies I used to have.   All I do is cry, not sleep and worry.  My blood pressure is very high and they are having trouble controlling it.  I have an appointment with a cardiologist next week.  I suffer greatly from depression, insomnia and medication has not been of any help.   I also suffer from disabling osteoarthritis, degenerative joint disease and the pain associated with it.  My legs swell and it hurts me just to stand some days.  My desire to live at this point has left me, if it were not for my mother, I believe I would have ended this misery months ago, but I would never do that to my mother, I know she would blame herself.   I just don’t care anymore and it is hard to face every day as you continually lose more and more.  I am afraid I am going to be on the street once my house goes into foreclosure. I get food stamps (SNAP), Medicaid and that is all. I now have NO CASH, no savings and no help financially. I am scared to death, my blood pressure is out of control and I have a cardiac consult next week for that and extensive swelling in my legs (heart failure symptoms). If it were not for my mother, I seriously doubt if I could stand one more minute on this earth. I am NOT suicidal, but the pain of living is really getting to me and I do not know what to do.  Can you PLEASE help me with just $1.00 or direct me to someone who can help me some how?  If several people could just donate one dollar, it would be a big help.  I am not at risk, again, for suicide or hurting anyone; I love people and treat them the way I want to be treated, that is how I live my life. I was the one giving out dollars when people on the street would ask for money, not judging them, now I need help.  I have 25+ years of medical experience; clinical and administrative. I have a Safelink now in case of emergencies.  Please, I am begging for help. I have pennies in my change jar, about $3.00 worth, and no other money. If I do not come up with $130.00 to pay my car insurance, a 2-month bill, my license will be suspended and I cannot be without b/c of doctor’s appointments, getting food and my dog has lung cancer and needs help with medication too. I know it is a lot to ask. Bless you and what you to do help others.  I pray to God, always have and I am hoping for some kind of a miracle.  I am a true believer of pay it forward and will do the same, as I have in my past, when I become successful again, and I WILL.   Thank you for reading this.

How do you do?

This is the house(in the picture) that I wish to build for my daughter and I.
I am 29 years old and my daughter is 1.
In order for me to do this, I need to demolish an existing house on the ancestral plot as it is in a horrendous condition, covered in ivy that has now gone into the house. It’s just awful. its sad to see the home I grew up in in such a horrific state.
I then need to rebuild and be living on the land or the land will be taken off me.
As a single mother, this task seems to be an impossible venture. I’ve looked at every way possible to raise the money but to no avail.
This is my last chance! I ask for your help in raising the funds required.
In total, I’m probably looking at roughly £100,000.00(one hundred thousand pounds) to do all the work.
I feel cheeky asking for this as I am well aware that there are so many more needier causes than me building this house.

I’m not going to lie to you, the last few years have been bloody awful(I will not go into details as I am not after the sympathy vote) and so I am just looking for a way to rebuild my life and make things better, not for me but for my daughter. She is my main concern, my priority and my world.
I want for her to have security and a home that well into the future, will always be there for her. I want to be able to give her the life she deserves.
I have only a short amount of time to do something about this situation. A couple of months if I am lucky.
I plan also on getting back on my feet, more so when I get back to work. I am trying to get into training to be a bookkeeper at present.

I thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you to anyone that can make a contribution. I will be eternally grateful and will do my utmost and everything in my power to help others.

Kindest regards

M Kapil, 24, hardworking and honest student and i am struggling to feed a family of three. The issue is that my dad (dead in 2009) left no money for us and left me a debt of $9000 (Rs.540000)  which I am unable to pay off and interest @20% p.a. is being charged by builder from whom we purchased the house I presently live in. The builder is very kind allowing us to stay in the house but his kindness would disappear if i don’t pay off the dues within 2 years and he will remove us from our house in Mumbai,INDIA. We don’t have any other house to live in nor do we have rent to pay off rental premises. We are  in neck deep trouble and am just 24! Don’t know where to go and what to do. Hence I request you to kindly donate at least 1 dollar to this is my PayPal address. Your kind donation will help bring my balance down. I will be thankful to you and would pray lord Jesus to fill happiness in your life. God bless you!

Hi. I just submitted this form but I forgot I needed to write at least 300 words so I will try this again. Sorry. I’m Amy and I am disabled with a family of 4 including myself. I have been waiting nearly 3 years for a hearing for my disability and we are behind on all of our bills including all utility bills and credit cards that we have had to use just to get by.  We have also taken out multiple payday loans just to support the family and we are in financial crisis. Our mortgage company is also about to foreclose. I have attached a mortgage statement and I marked through the personal information. I was not comfortable with showing it because I don’t know who might see it. Sorry if this causes a problem. If it does, just contact me by email. We can not get help any where because our credit is ruined because we are so far behind. We don’t have family members who can help so I am to the point that I have to reach out to strangers for help and this is not easy for me to do but I would appreciate it so much. I suffer from bipolar disorder and severe clinical depression as well as post traumatic stress disorder. I also have nerve damage and deteriorating disks in my back which has caused my disabilities. My husband’s small income is just not enough. We have struggled and suffered for so long just trying to get by and take care of our two daughters until we are to the point that it is just not working any more and everything is falling apart. I now have bells palsy because of all of the stress of our situation. I would appreciate any help we can get very much.

I have always rented houses because im not in the position to buy but now that i have a multidog household its getting more difficult to find a home that accepts pets.I always rent old houses that need a bit of work done and decorate myself and usually get a good few years before the house owners want to sell.A year ago this happened yet again and after a few worrying weeks i found a landlord willing to let me stay with my dogs in return for renovating the house,i had no choice,time was running out so i used my savings to completly renovate the house,it was a mess and took a few months to complete.Now that the first year lease is up the landlord wants me out so he can sell his newly renovated house.Im absolutely devastated and after seeking legal advice there is nothing i can do.I have just 2 months max to find a new house so im hoping some dog lovers out there can help me save for a deposit to buy a house rather than rent,i just cant do this anymore and i cannot lose my dogs,they are my life!! If i cannot save enough money for a deposit to but then enough to rent a slightly higher priced rental for a few months would be better than losing my dogs .Until now i often wondered how many of these posts were genuine but until you are faced with a situation like mine or many others its impossible to say what you would do if in the same situation.Im praying some dog lovers see this and help me out because life seems very pointless with out my dogs x

Dear Sir

We hereby request your precious financial contribution so you can recover my house to the bank.

Follows the historical explicitly detailed below, and such contribution will not have the same value, without first VSa read with dedicated attention:

My name is Rosangela Monteiro, a resident of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I am 46 years and for 13 years I have been retired for disability due to cancer in addition to other acquired disease. At the time I retired “with a good salary,” then I funded a house by the CPMP, after a few years due to the wage gap, I could not pay benefits. I was driven to ask for review of plots to continue paying, but nothing, the situation worsened. Today I will be homeless if the bank send me a letter of eviction.

Later this year I was contacted by a bailiff asking my attendance at multirao the Private home, I was informed that CEF had bought my house and was trying to sell me back because my priority would be, but how can I buy my own home?

I’ve tried several times to negotiate, but I had no trouble negotiating because to apply for credit, despite having no restriction or the SPC or SERASSA, and was informed that there was CONDITIONAL APPROVAL the CONRES, which would seek to GILIERJ.

They asked me the value of R $ 88,000.00 (eighty-eight thousand reais), but buying the property can only be in cash and do not have this value, therefore am not ashamed to ask for help.

The following property data to see I’m not lying or trying to take advantage

Housing contract 8133480015607

PROC No. 00080372720124025101 TRF2

Data for eventual deposit

[don8 email=”rosanginho@oi.com.br”]

I am very grateful for their invaluable understanding and possible contribution, no matter how small, I commit myself somehow in the future repay him with information and explanations of my eventual success, valuing praise with its so meaningful participation.

No more carefully

Rosangela Monteiro

My name is Ali, I’m twenty two years old and I was woken up last Tuesday by a phone call from my mum. She was crying and muttering about losing her house. My mum has always been the strongest person I know, so to hear her crying tore something in me. I went round as soon as I could and asked her what was happening.

My parents split up when I was ten years old. My father was a violent alcoholic and my childhood was a torment. Naturally, their split meant me and my two younger siblings could be happy children and not sullen faced drink fetchers. Unfortunately, due to my fathers greedy intelligence, their divorce took a number of years (four I think) and although my mum got the house, my father was awarded £57,000. My mum very nearly had to sell the house to pay him. That house has been owned by my mum’s side of the family for 4 generations, selling it would break her heart.

When the dust settled my mum still had the house and my father was out of the picture, life has been good since then.

Our happiness was short lived. I went round to my mum’s house and she explained how my father has been neglecting his payments on loans he took out when they were still married. To my fathers credit, he has been dutifully paying the loan off for the past few years, however it would seem he has either run out of money or he just doesn’t care anymore.

The guarantee on the loan was my mum’s house. She regrets it now but at the time they needed the money to start up their business (a restaurant that my father ran into the ground with his drinking and spending). The bank is now asking for £11,600 or it will take the house. I don’t understand how they can justify taking a house over eleven grand but there’s nothing we can do about it.

Me and my sister have put all of our savings together and raised £7850. My mother is now retired and so was unable to afford more than £1500. That gives us £9350. We have three weeks left to raise the money or my mum will lose her home.

I don’t like asking for money, it has cost me all the dignity I have to post this but I don’t know what else to do. All I am asking for is help.

If there is anyone out there reading this who can help, I will pay back every penny as soon as I can. If you lend me £2,250 you will be my mothers guardian angel.

Thank you.

Hi my name is Jamie, in December of 2013 we opened a restaurant and named it after my husband’s deceased sister who was tragically killed in a car accident involving a drink driver. We put every thing we had and then some into this we gave it our all but it just didn’t work out for us and we had no choice but to shut it down in August 2014. Now we are left with overwhelming debt and we are about to loose our house which is a double wide mobile home its not much but it is our home. My husband and I have been married for 14 1/2 years and have 3 children Dylan 9, Aubree 8, and Nash 16 months. Before we opened the restaurant my husband installed overhead doors and I worked as a receptionist in a Dr. Office we were your average middle class family. Now even though we are both working we can’t afford health insurance, we can barely aafford to heat our house. We are about $75,000 in debt and would appreciate any help.

Hi my name is Pam, I live on my family farm with my husband and my 15 year old son. We moved to the farm in 2009 after my dad passed away and my mother was supposed to move in with us and help pay for the farm. She was diagnosed with cancer and decided to move up north with my brother which has put us in a very bad situation. I have MS so my husband is the only income provider. We have tried to get money from his 401k but they say we can not touch it until he retires. We are facing foreclosure by the 21st of December. We do not want hand out but would appreciate a loan. none of the banks will help. We need 20,000.00 dollars to save our home and be able to buy a used truck mine is a 1998 Chevy and has had 2 transmissions and 1 rear end replaced with another rear end ready to go anytime.. It just seems everything I try or do to get a head something happens and we get behind.. please if you can help save Leap Of Faith Farm thank you.

I have been in my home for 23 years. Until recently, I faithfully served as a public employee. Due to a situation where I was directed to compromise the integrity of the position and that of the people I served, I did not comply and henceforth lost my job. I have been able to maintain my home up until this point. I have lived extremely minimally and have spent all of my cash reserve. To survive, I have sold many possessions many of which have been in my family for generations. Today I ask for your help. Please consider a financial offer to help maintain the roof over my head. With everything that is going on my home is the last vestige of normalcy. I ask for help to maintain my house until I am able to secure another position. I have only six years left on my mortgage. Your financial offering will help me weather this difficult time. In turn for your offer, I promise that once I get back onto my feet I will pay it forward again helping those in need.

I bought this brand new home in 2006. By the end of 2006 I found mold in the window seals and under the carpet. I became disabled the next year while trying to find out why our city does not make builder’s be bonded or insured. The water from the hall bathroom bath tub and shower goes directly under my house which caused a huge cracked in the foundation. This allowed moisture in the house causing mold. The insurance wouldn’t cover it and the builder had a judgement on him for it but I was financed through Bank of America which after the insurance company notified them of the condition of the house, the bank kept 4 of my payments and started foreclosure on it I filled for bankruptcy and now since I’m too sick they are taking it away. My children and I need a home that’s safe and mold free. Please help us get a different home we can live in. Thank you for your time.

My wife and I have been together almost 7 years now. We have 3 great small kids. We got ourselves into to many credit cards and some medical debt as well. We were doing really well until the economy took a downturn and my wife was laid off back in 2009. She got to go back to school paid for so that was a plus but the income she was getting from unemployment was nothing compared to what she was making at the previous job. Shortly after she was let go I was let go as well. Luckily for me I was able to go back and work for the company we were working for before. We were doing really well up until then. As a result we continued to get behind on everything as I was the main source of income. We try and try and try to get ahead but never could. The house we owned at the time needed some work as well and the septic was backing up due to a tree that had rooted itself into the pipes. There was no way we could come up with the $10,000 we needed to fix the issues so we ended up having to foreclose on the house. That was about a year ago and we’ve been renting since. We rent a nice home but the credit card debt and medical bills continue to haunt us as does our vehicle payment. We have ended up not being able to pay most of them. Most of the credit cards are in collections as are the medical bills. This just creates more and more stress between us both and just stress in general. All and all it would be $50,000+ to be able to get out of the hole we are in. We just want to be able to make a great life for our kids and not have them suffer for financial mistakes we’ve made. If anyone out there could help we would be forever in your debt. I’m not even sure where this letter could go or if anything could happen at all but I know there are many wealthy and kind people out there so I’m asking and begging you to please help. Thank you for reading this and God bless.

Hello,

My name is Stacy. 2014 has been a year of challenges for my family. I had two hospitalizations earlier this year. My husband lost his job in April because he had to take time off to take care of me. This was the beginning of our financial troubles.

My mother died unexpectedly in June and I had to take a couple weeks off work to take care of the arrangements.  This caused an additional financial set-back on our household.

Things were slowly getting back on track in late August as I was working as much overtime as possible. Then, to add to our nightmare, we had a “corporate restructuring” in September and I lost my job after 8 years with the company.

Now, we are 3 months behind on our mortgage and facing foreclosure. We’re 3 months behind on our car and facing repossession. Our utilities are now being disconnected and we’re struggling to make ends meet and keep a sense of security and normalcy for our 3 small children.

My husband and I have been trying to sell everything that we can for extra money.  We apply for 10+ jobs a day but we are still sinking…fast.  I’m sure our situation will improve and we’ll be OK (like we always are), but we need help getting through the end of the year.

Anything you can do to help us will be greatly appreciated.

God bless you in advance for your giving.

Hello,  My name is Tom.   I am a 63 year old Vietnam Veteran who is disabled due to my exposure to agent orange.    When I first became disabled I used up all my 401(k) money, and savings while waiting for disability benefits to kick in.  However,  by the time I finally got the benefits the amount of back payments due on my mortgage was more than I could afford.

I am now facing foreclosure and eviction.   I can afford to pay rent on a new place and we want to move from New Jersey to Las Vegas area due to better weather,  lower housing costs and to be closer to a VA Hospital.    Two of my children plan on going to UNLV once we live in Las Vegas for a while.

Our plan was to rent a truck and move ourselves.  But,  suddenly I had to have heart bypass surgery and just got out of the hospital on Nov 3, 2014.   I will not be able to do any physical labor for 3 to 5 months while my breastbone and ribs repair themselves.  I have to be out of this house in 3 months or be put on the street.    I am not permitted to drive for 6-8 weeks so I will likely have to be a passenger on the trip as well.  So because of this heart bypass surgery moving myself is no longer an option.

I have gotten estimates for movers to come and move me, with them doing all the loading and unloading and that cost is around $9,000.00    Since I cannot drive I will have to have one of my cars shipped as well.  (FYI:  I have 3 cars:  1986 Peugeot, 1988 Chevy Blazer, and 2004 Ford Explorer)  The cost of shipping a car is about $1,250.00.

Using all the available credit I have on my credit cards ( I have zero balance on them)  and cash on hand,  I have the deposit money I need to rent a new place, and money to pay for gas and lodging along the way.  I also have $3,000.00 which is what I needed to rent a truck.   With the change in plan that I cannot move myself I suddenly need $7,250.00 more to make the move.

We have looked into selling our 30 years of accumulated stuff and just move our clothes but we would only get pennies on the dollar and have to replace so much after we move that actually moving the stuff is much more cost effective.  I would not be begging like this if I had a choice but I need to get out of here soon or I will be evicted.  Thanks for your consideration.   Your help will be appreciated.

Save my home

I have worked all my life, took care of my parents til their deaths, mom in
1991 and dad in 1998. Rescued by brothers home from foreclosure in 2000. Took
a loan for that. Up until October of 2008 I have had no serious health

issues. I started feeling sick in December of 2008.I did go to the doctors
and it took them a few months to figure out what was wrong. My bladder and
uterus had prolapsed. In March 2009 I had surgery. Problem fixed. I was able
to return to work. The next year in 2010 was brought to hospital to find out

I have afib which now is controlled by medications. But during that time it
was harder to return to work and I got behind on my home.I was able to catch
up some but not enough. In November 2012 had another surgery for a hiatal
hernia. I’m behind 10,510.83. In the process of a career change, doctor said
no more heavy lifting. I have been taking jobs that do not require lifting.

But at present not making enough to save this impeding financial crisis that
is upon my family. I grew up here, my parents died here. I would like to
stay. Could someone please help this family stay in their home.

Family about to lose home

My name is Randy and I am married and we share three wonderful children
together. My wife recently has lost her job and we are $2000 in debt with
our mortgage and we are about to lose our home for us and our children. My

wife has neurofibromatosis and is disfigured and therefore she prefers to
work non-face-to-face and it’s becoming harder and harder for her to find a
steady at-home job. Right now the banks are calling me every day and telling

me I either declare bankruptcy or within the next couple of months they are
going to foreclose on our home. I have already deferred as much as they will
allow me and I do not make enough to get caught up. I need around $2000 to

get caught up and my credit is so bad I can’t get any kind of long-term loan
from any bank. Please help me, I’ve exhausted all other resources possible!
My wife and I and our kids would be very, very grateful!

Home in foreclosure 90 days to pay past due or homeless

I am in need of help, and don’t have anyone to turn to. My home is in
foreclosure and have been given 90 days to pay $8,450.00 in past payments

including late fees and attorney fees. I am raising two children with no
help, I couldn’t qualify for a modification either. The thought of my
children and I on the street in 90 days scares me and I am begging for help,

please. I am not making up stories if I can get the help I will remove my
ad. Please help me save my home. I am trying to save what I can but I still

have to pay bills and feed my children. I am very stressed and hate to ask
for help but I have no other options. Thank you for any help you could give
me, bless you.

STRUGGLING HOME OWNER ~ I NEED HELP FAST!

Hello… I’m a middle aged male, living in the State of Georgia and was
downsized from my Construction job in 2008 after 11 years of loyal service.
Along with several others who I’m sure are now in a similar situation.

As the know, the economy took a bad turn, and the construction field
completed went under. Banks will not loan money to builders, so we could not
build.

I have tried to find work, but no one seems to be hiring in my field. My
mortgage has fallen so for behind that it’s a miricle that I am still in my

home. I am at least 2 years behind in mortage payments. I’m treading water
here. I really need your help. Any amount you can donate will be a blessing!

I’m on the brink of losing my home if something doesn’t happen fast. I do
work on commission were i can find it to survive but it’s not covering all
my expenses and so

I’m begging anyone that can help me save my
home and the dignity I’ve got left. Please help me! I’ve tried speaking to
the bank; refinancing, and a modification. My home is all I’ve got left and

I’ve been fighting to keep it. So if it means begging then that is what I’ll
have to do!! So I’m really asking anybody out there to PLEASE HELP ME KEEP

MY HOME!!! I’m just a ordinary guy that is trying to save what i’ve been
working for, for the past 35 years of my life. I’ve always helped others and

never asked for money in return. All I’m asking is to keep my home…Please
help me if you can!

Thank you so very much for your interest and consideration!!!

Begging someone save my home

Hi I’m a middle aged male, living in South Africa and was retrenched last
year June after the company i was working for was taken over by the IMPERIAL
GROUP. I cannot find gainfull employment because of my age and affirmative

action in this country and now I’m on the brink of losing my home of the
past 26 years, I do handyman work were i can find it to survive but it’s not
covering all my expenses and so I’m begging anyone that can help me save my

home and the dignity I’ve got left to please help me, i’ve tried speaking to
the bank but they just say they cannot help. My home is all i’ve got left
and i’ll fight to keep it and if that means begging then that is what i’ll

do!! So i’m really asking anybody out there to PLEASE HELP ME KEEP MY
HOME!!! I’m just a ordinary guy that is trying to save what i’ve been
working for, for the past 30 years of my live….I’ve always helped others

and never asked for money in return for it but now i’m the one in need…All
i’m asking is to keep my home…Please help me!!

Please, losing home daughter severely ill…

I’m sorry for begging but honestly don’t know what else to do right now.
I am disabled, although only 40, and awaiting SSDI. I have always worked
hard since I was 13, stayed home to raise my children, then back to 60-70 hour

work weeks when they went to school. Unfortunately six years ago I became
very ill and have yet to recover, I have been told by all the doctors-second third,

fourth even fifth opinions that I will be like this the rest of my life. I
worked still through the first three years until I literally dropped. I
have managed to stay afloat one way or another for the last three years,

unfortunately my resources are now dried up-just as many people out there
right now. I will lose my home I’ve been in for the last six years with my
children, who all but one have now grown and moved out. I cannot imagine

life without my son and if I lose my home, I lose him. He is my whole world,
he is my reason for getting up everyday despite severe pain. He is my reason
for living. If I don’t catch up with rent, its over. I owe a little from

last month and all of this month. despite my physical, financial struggles,
I’ve never been this late with my rent before. I have a wonderful landlord
who has helped me through the years, allowing me to pay him as I get money

because he knows as soon as its in y hand, its in his, and the fact I’ve not
been a month, let alone a month plus late before. He can only do so much
though, as he has his own family to take care of. To make matters more

severe, my daughter has been hospitalized twice in the last month, and she
and her baby daughter will be homeless if she can’t live with me. She can’t
live where she’s been because she needs an allergen free home. Her allergies

are so severe, she’s been admitted to the hospital through the ER via
ambulance twice, with no insurance due to her severe lack of oxygen due to
allergies. Please, any assistance at all would be more than greatly

appreciated, I would even like to pay back, just don’t know how long it
would take me. I would of course pay it forward as well, when I am back on
my feet. Thanks for your time, and in advance for any help at all.

thank you for taking the time to read my message.

About to lose my house.

My mother recently lost her job, and I have been searching endlessly for a
job to help her, with no luck because employment opportunities are a little
harder to come by in a small town. We have put a lot of work and money and

effort into our house, if we miss one payment, we lose everything. I am
coming here just to look for help, any amount of money just until I can get

hired at a place I just applied at, I’d hate to lose the house just because
I didn’t get hired in time to make the payment.

Please help. Spare $1 or $10
it doesn’t matter, anything.

Help me save my land from a Tax Lien Sale.

I’m a disabled person on fixed income and barely making ends meet. Most
months money runs out before the bills. I recently received a certified
letter of intent to foreclose on my land due to taxes. This letter is from

an investor that grabs and acts on delinquent taxes. Due to some
misunderstandings and the county having mailed tax bills to a old dead mail
address I was unaware of how much time had passed.As stated earlier my money

barely covers living expenses, this unanticipated notice is beyond my
personal resolve, I am looking to the community for donations to help
resolve this issue and save my property.I am in need of about $4000.00

dollars to pay off these taxes and save my property,any possible help would
be greatly appreciated. If I were to be fortunate enough to cover this debt
any money surplus to my needs would be payed forward either to other

individuals or animal rescue shelters.Thanks for your consideration. These
are truely difficult times for many – even our four legged friends, so many
of which have been left behind as people become displaced and lose their
dreams.

I need help!

I am about to lose my house to foreclosure
on May 16, 2012 if I can’t come up with $6000. Anything you can give will

help! You will get nothing in return except the self satisfaction that you
could help someone in need. I know I am truly the reason why I am in this
predicament, but here’s my story:

I made the mistake of staying in a relationship that was bad for me. This is
not commonplace for me. I went 10 years without dating anyone before this

relationship and may go 10 years again! He was working when we first started
dating, but after a year and a half, he only worked about half that time. I

make good money, for a single person owning a home, but not for 2 people. I
am a very positive person, he turned out to be a very down person. Every

time I thought about leaving him, I was worried about him harming himself.
Now that I have left him, I am not letting that worry me. I need to take
care of myself.

Remember how I said he was unemployed? Supporting 2 people, 2 cats, and 2
dogs (rescue pit bulls, one was from the MO500 dog fighting raid) got to be

too much. I kept up utilities because we needed electricity, gas, and water,
phone (so he would hopefully get a job). I had to let cable go, I have

internet on my phone, and cheap slow internet in my house. Thankfully, I do
not have any credit card debt. Unfortunately, I am now facing foreclosure. I

have worked with the bank, but they keep denying all of my options. This has
drug on too long and now I have a deadline to come up with the funds.

Here’s my goal:
$6000 in a week to save my house
If I succeed at that and people are still giving: $6000 more to pay off my
medical collection bills.

If I succeed at that and people are still giving: $8500 more to pay off a
horrible loan on my car (no not a title loan, through a bank, but a horrible

interest rate and a higher value than my breaking down car is worth)
If I succeed at that and people are still giving: $$$$ any amount to go

toward helping people, animals, community outreach programs… the sky’s
the limit and at this point, I’ll be able to add to the pot myself,
hopefully even matching funds.

Need money to keep my house

I am asking for financial help as I am a single Mum with 3 beautiful
daughters and its breaking my heart that I am in this financial mess. My
daughters father gives me nothing towards the upbringing of his daughters

and I have been struggling for a year now and its all got on top of me. I am
several months behind on my rent, and will be serviced with a section 21 in
the next 7 days, I have been unable to pay any household bills for several
months and cannot afford to run my car anymore.

All this financial trouble is making me very ill with the stress and worry
and it is starting to affect me being a good mum.

Any help I will be really greatful.

Thank you for your time,

xxx.

Unemployed-Trying to Keep My Home

In 2001, I was diagnosed with agoraphobia and was forced to close the
Property Management Company I owned.

In 2003, I got a job working from home doing bookkeeping over the internet.
It was perfect because I only had to deal with people over the phone. I can

do that. I worked at my job for 8.5 years. Then when the economy went bad,
our company lost many clients. I was one of 3 full time people and many of
the clients we lost were mine. My boss let me go as he felt I was losing too

many clients. He paid me three months of severance pay but that ended in
August 2011. I paid my mortgage up until that point.
That’s when I applied for unemployment. After fighting with the Virginia

Employment Commission for 7 months, I went to court on March 28, 2012 and
was denied any benefits.

I have been looking for a job since May 2011 to no avail. Currently, I have
4.12 in my checking account. I am 9 months behind on my mortgage. I need to

raise 10,000.00 in order to keep my house. Please, any amount would be a
start. Thank You!

Help Us Keep Our Home

We’ve been trying to pay the back taxes for the property on which we live,
but have not had much luck. Also, because of the tough terrain around here,
a truck is really needed. A brand new truck is not necessary, just something

that will not break down over the rough roads. All and all, abou $20,000
would cover the 15 plus years of back taxes and provide a decent used truck.

We’ve been trying to make payments, but the balance never seems to go down
due to fees and penalties. In the meantime, we’ve got three young kids that
might have to hunt down a new home because the county keeps threatening to
take the home.

Anything you might like to offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so
much and God bless you for doing so.

On the Verge of Bankruptcy

I lost my job in 2010 and have been struggling ever
since to find a job. I’ve applied to many places but have not heard back or

went on interviews but didn’t get the job. My husband is our only source of
income right now and we are barely making it. We have enough to just pay the

essential bills and that’s it. We have a little over $50k in debt and are
working really hard on paying it off. We are on the verge of facing

bankruptcy which we would also lose our house in the process. We have a 3
year old daughter as well. I thought I would try this out and see where it
goes. Any donations are welcome! Have a blessed day!
