To whomever it may concern and/or is able.

I have two requests. The first one is dire, and the second one is for a project I wish to endeavor. If I could get help for both, that would be fantastic.

Greetings to you. And thank you in advance for taking the time from your busy schedule. Let me introduce myself. My name is Fred Medina Jr. I currently have a situation that needs to be resolved. I need your help. I hope by the end of this letter I would find a few generous donors to help me get back on track. You see, an unexpected sickness come upon me that caused me to lose my job and my driving privileges. On February 2021, I was diagnosed with “Parkinson’s Disease” an incurable sickness. (My wife insisted.)

PD affects the central nervous system causing constant tremors, problems with coordination, involuntary movements, rhythmic muscle contractions, muscle rigidity, feet shuffling, difficulty and slow bodily movements, just to name a few. (It’s extremely difficult to use my cell phone of computer.)

Sometime in May, the company that I worked for had a slot opened in Florida (I’m originally from New York State.). I applied for the transfer. By the end of June, I bought a house with 1.2 acres of land, and I moved to Florida with my wife and son (who is disable). I was enjoying life, and my job. I was a field technician by trade. During my spare time, I had plans to convert 1/3 of land into a Japanese garden, 1/3 for an aquaponic system, and lastly, 1/3 into a vegetation garden for self-consumption. This undertaking would have taken me approximately less then 2 years. Just in time for my retirement. I was looking into the future of selling, fish and vegetables.

Nevertheless, by mid-November, the PD exploded. I was weak, shaking uncontrollably, could not walk properly, etc. Due to my medical condition, the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles revoked my driving privileges. Therefore, I was not able to drive to the job sites, no license. Or use the computer effectively for remote work. This put a financial strain on my family. My wife could not fine work and was constantly assisting me with everyday tasks and driving me to the hospital and the physical therapy. My son has no idea what’s going on. Mentally not there.

I started to withdraw from my savings, stocks, 401k, to pay the mortgage, food, bills, etc. I was also receiving company short term disability. I applied for SSDI which I started to receive sometime in April. My mortgage started out for $1350, then it increased to $1625, it was getting harder for me to pay it. Then it increased to $1855. I was not able to pay since I ran out of my savings, stocks, and my short-term company disability had expired. I was depending upon my SSDI, my son’s SSI, and my wife’s job to meet the obligation, but I fell short of the mark. It has placed me in a dire predicament situation.

Because I started to get behind on my mortgage, and willing to forgo my dreams of having the gardens. Therefore, I decided to the placed the house in the market for sale, sometime in November hoping to pay off the debt and have some left over to move to an RV and rent a lot. Or finding a place within a HUD community. After waiting for a while, a potential buyer finally came by with interest to buy. But according to the loan officer, I cannot sell the house unless I have a new roof. And once I agree to sell, I will not have enough to move to a different location. Example: the RV with the lot.

Because I already owe somewhere between my credit cards, mics, and mortgage (roughly $ 75000), I’m not able to get a loan. So, I’m in limbo. On the other hand, If I sell the house, I may lose my dream of having an aquaponic system, etc. or at least delay the dream. I need your help so can solve these issues.

Consequently, I know this is a bit too much to ask, nonetheless, my second request is if anyone out there can spot me $2,000,000 that would be fantastic. I would use the monies to create a Japanese garden, aquaponic system, vegetable garden, hire a crew to work the field, and to pay off my mortgage. And the rest will go to a savings account earning interest, as a backup. Hopefully open a foster care unit for seniors.

I wish to keep the dream and not lose the house. Moreover, if anyone out there can help in any capacity that would be great. Even if I have to move to a more affordable place.

Although, whomever you may be. I want to thank you in advance and hopefully share the success.

I Ann deeply in dept with a total of $60,000 in debt; $20,000 for mortgage, $5,000 for Ohio state taxes & $30,000 in medical bills. I am on a fixed income of $1,800 per month & I have no one to help me to catch up on these bills. The state is threatening me to sue me for money that I don’t have & I am 1 month behind on my mortgage & the bank is threatening to foreclose on my home which means I would be living on the streets & have to go on a hunger strike. I pray that someone will open their hearts to help me to get these bills paid off.

Hello,

I hope this message finds you well thank you for taking the time to read my request for help. Things have not always been in the current situation of needing help. I live a very modest lifestyle and try to plan for the unseen circumstances. In the current situation of being let go from my job in November, and I always take jobs out of town to provide for my family.

I am the only one who can work due to my wife not being able to from her medical condition doctors have not been able to pinpoint the issue and also taking on the responsibility of my sister in-law living with us as well due to an abusive relationship. In recent weeks my father who had a previous stroke suffered another one and has set him back and is in therapy. This has been overwhelming in the current situation and feel as I’m on borrowed time in my own health situation due to the immense stress and pressure.  We as a family are facing foreclosure and I had tried to explain this to my daughter who is special needs and is Autistic which case she is struggling to understand just why she doesn’t.

This has been a rough situation of not being able to even barely put food on the table and one car out of commission and another needing to go into the shop for repairs.  I am behind on my mortgage by $10,000.00 and will lose the house by the end of the month.  I have not been able to find a job and need help very desperately. I can only hope and pray that this message finds generosity in time. Thank you taking the time to read this post, many blessing towards you and your family. My link for is paypal.me/peppers770.

I’m at a loss. I have no idea where to turn. My husband and I run a small business that was thriving before the pandemic but with the theme parks closing down and postponing any new additions or renovations that used to yield us 100k a year, we now are turning our business in other directions adding new facets to what we do and making small amounts of money here and there. It’s just not enough, with new expansions coming closer it’s good for us but we couldn’t keep up and are now facing foreclosure before the big jobs have come through. We have kept our budget as low as we can with only one vehicle and zero extracurricular activities and even with food stamps and Medicaid we still cannot make ends meet. We have a nine year old daughter and a 13 year old son with autism and we are on the brink of losing our home. Not only did we get behind on the mortgage because we just weren’t making enough money but our mortgage over the last 5 years has increased from $725 to $1290 due to homeowners insurance. Had the insurance not gone up we might have been able to stay afloat but it just didn’t pan out that way. We are $10,252.61 in debt to the mortgage company as of last month (they just called to let us know today they are filing for foreclosure) and because we are a small business run out of our home and the way our income comes in we don’t have regular jobs to provide information to qualify for modifications or loans to get us caught up. Our homeowners insurance has increased so much that we have a leak in our roof that we can’t even afford the deductible to have it repaired to get newer less expensive homeowners insurance to bring our monthly payment down. Everything is spiraling and I am absolutely panic stricken. The PayPal account is in my husbands name and the cashapp and Venmo are in my name. Any help that can be provided will be beyond appreciated. If we lose our home I have no idea where we will go or how we will explain it to our children. We need $10-$15k to straighten everything out and get back on track. I know it’s a lot to ask, and we are working hard everyday to try and raise funds. I’ve made $1000 in the last month to put toward keeping us in our home but I just don’t know what else to do. We are desperate for any help. Thank-you and god bless!

I’m 65 and trying really hard to stave off the wolfs at my Mortgage company.  About 3 years ago I started having Medical issues. I missed a lot of work, and went out on FMLA 3 times in a 2 year period. I needed to go out again a few months after just returning.  I started having issues with acute Diverticulitis and eventually had surgery to remove part of my bowel.  I was forced into early retirement. Early I say because I was not financially ready for retirement.

One month after Surgery ,I received a call from my sisters stating that our 90 year old Mother who needed round the clock care would be needing to come live with me on and off and that I needed to do construction on my bathroom so she could get in and out of the bathroom and shower without difficulty. It was not an ask, it was a demand.

I was not physically or financially able to do this.  They called and said mother wanted to pay for it. They hounded and hounded me to get the bathroom completed. I did everything I could to find someone who was reputable and could start and end the reconstruction in a timely manner. During this time, one of my sisters was diagnosed with a rare form of Liver cancer and passed away with in 2 months of the diagnosis.

It turns out business references can be forged. You never know who you are really talking with when you make the reference calls. I hired the handyman from hell!!

The construction people rarely showed up and when they did, they rarely did any work and were only there for a few hours. After 4 months since I hired them I had to accept the job as is. Plumbing issues galore. My downstair family room was flooding and the water was coming from the ceiling under the bathroom remodel.

Because of all of this my mom was never able to come live with me and is living with my sister. What was a gift from my mother for the bathroom was only a loan and not a gift as my deceased sister my living sister had originally told me.  My mom has dementia and is not able to remember things or stick up for herself for me. My sister became a really wicked person and started demanding I pay my mother back.

She told the entire family, nieces, nephews, anuts, anyone that would listen that I took money from mother and need to pay it back. It has been a nightmare. I’m just devastated.

I started living on Credit cards and quickly fell behind on everything.

I actually stacked up a whopping 31,000 in Credit card debit trying to complete the bathroom, I still have plumbing issues. Paying my various bills by CC, etc.

A mortgage you are not able to pay by credit card so I fell 10 months behind on it. I was finally able to get a new job.  In January I was able to start making Mortgage payments but I’m only able to  afford the actual monthly amount and not the extra to pay off what I’m behind. I have been negotiating with my Mortgage company since October, buying time. But the time is now up and I have to the end of March to pay $10,950.68, in back payments to keep my house from foreclosure.

I have no one in which I can ask for help. I have no family that will speak with me and I have really poor credit now and can not get a loan.  At 65 you never think this is where you will be in life. I have credit card debit that I have to pay  and  I have to still get the bathroom plumbing corrected and floor  issues corrected. Those over time I hope to chisel away at. But my home I can not lose. If I lose my house I will be on the streets. I honestly have tried everything. Please won’t you help. Thank you.

Hi, & thank you simply for taking the time to hear about my story,  & this soul draining predicament that has overwhelmed me & brought me to my knees.. 1st off, I have been with my wife for 20 years, and are now in the divorce process,  as nearly the entire time we’ve been involved in marriage counseling.  I knew that if we didn’t divorce, I would literally die of anxiety,  stress & being made to feel like the most worthless person,  as this is what I had learned to live with. Throughout our relationship, I had started a small business doing granite countertops,  & have worked an average. of 50hrs/week for those 20 years, at which point I had saved up around 75k, as Ive had my 2 children, 14 & 16, as my driving motivation. But getting older, I was starting to get sick from pushing my body so hard & was even hospitalized & nearly died of pneumonia.  During these last few years, my wife was handling the finances, as I lacked the capacity with constantly recovering & working as I had been. During this time, over the course of less than a year,  the life savings I had nearly killed myself to save, was completely gone, only or her to to blame it on my time off work from being ill, unseen bills, etc.. since the beginning of this divorce process,  every day that passes I feel less anxiety,  however the financial damage has left me now 4 months delinquent on my mortgage,  can’t pay my bills. As back in October of 2023, business seemed to come to a complete stop. Work had been constant for the past 5 yrs until then, & I’ve only made several sales since then.  The house I bought.. well, “we” bought together must now get sold as financial ruin is ever present.

I can only humbly say thank you, for just your kind consideration of helping someone such as me, who has never been at a place like this in his life, your generosity would change life back into the positive & be able to look forward to every day, rather than the stress that comes with my current situation.

Hello.. I am Asking for help to pay my mortgage and stop foreclosure . My husband and I need roughly $20,000 to get out of foreclosure and stay afloat.  We asked for help from our mortgage company but they offered us a balloon payment that meant we would end up paying $314’000 on a house appraised at $168’000. We asked for another option and they said they couldn’t help us because the house is worth $314,000 and that we make $97,000 a year. We make no where near that. Our gross was closer to $50.000 . I sent them a copy of our 2022 tax return to prove it. I also sent them a copy of our property tax appraisal stating that it’s worth $168,000. I even sent them information showing that the house across the street from us sold June 2023 for $160.000 and that house is in much better shape then ours.  They sent another denial letter but they never  based it on the proper information. We have a cleaning service in a tourist town. We never quite came back financially from Covid.  Beside the cleaning service I also work at Big Lots and  a small store where people can make their own tie dye shirts. I’m  telling  you this because I want you know that we do work and more than 1 job. My husband’s health is not the best. Besides AFIB, and  high blood pressure , this summer he was going into kidney failure. That set him back a month before he could work again. In December of  2023 he was diagnostics with lung cancer and was operated on 01/11/24.  He’ll be out of work for at least 4 weeks and longer if they have to go back in and operate again. This is our last hope. We have tried to get a loan and failed. Our credit scores are in the high 500’s – low 600’s. Mainly because our credit cards are maxed out. Not because we aren’t paying them. Please help if you can . It would be GREATLY appreciated.

Good Morning,

To say a parent would do anything for their child is both a true and powerful statement.  Today, I find myself giving the last and what I feel like, is my only thing left, my pride.  I have always been the person to help others whether it be financial, emotional or physical.  At 52 years old, I never thought I would be requesting financial assistance from strangers wondering if my family will find out about this, wondering if this is truly a possibility and concerned I am getting my hopes up that this could really be my turn for some positive change.  I feel like the tree stump in the ending of Shel Silverstein’s book, The Giving Tree.  I have very little left but still have a lifetime of needing to give specifically to my 3 girls ages 16, 14 and 12.

My husband and I both worked in the hospitality industry.  I as a Wedding Planning and he as a Director of Convention Services.  Combined, we made a decent living but still lived pay check to pay check.  In 2013, I had to take my niece and nephew in (guardianship, my sister is a struggling alcoholic).  When they joined my family I did not receive any financial assistance from my state (MA) and paid roughly $23,000 out of my savings to support them while they lived with us.  Eventually we were able to locate them a family who is still in the process of adopting them.

As the years passed and the cost of childcare increased, my husband and I decided that I should open my own wedding business versus trying to work in Boston while paying for childcare.  Events by Nikki launched in 2016 and, as with any new business, it took a few years to build my client base however, by 2020, I had over $143,000 in potential revenue on the books.  Around this time, my husband was about to get laid off however, we had known for over a year so were able to prepare.  The venue he had worked at for over 25 years had been purchased and the exhibit hall where he oversaw all the large trade shows was being torn down.  Having this information about the sale/tear down, he had interviewed and negotiated a new position within the same industry and was due to start in March of 2020.  As with so many families, Covid destroyed this next phase in our lives.  The career move my husband worked so hard for was given to another person that already worked for the hotel.  As with most venues, during Covid, it was crucial for companies to hire from within.  Although we were devastated, we knew the hotel made the right decision for their reputation.  While my husband searched for work I slowly and sadly saw every event I booked cancelled due to the pandemic and sadly closed Events by Nikki the following year.  I decided I needed some income that worked with our schedule so began waitressing nights about 30 miles from my home.  Our next plan, now that my husband found a new position back in the hospitality business, was for me to become a real estate agent.  We felt my love for helping others along with my degree in Hospitality Sales would make this a positive and lucrative move so I began the course in January of 2021.  This was the exact month that our world and our lives took a drastic hit.  Our youngest daughter, then 10, began suffering from severe school phobia.  It was so bad at one point that I, per direction of her pediatrician, actually had to carry her into the car kicking and screaming at me.  That was her 5th grade year.  She is currently enrolled in our public school in the 7th grade and her phobia not only has worsened but she has since been diagnosed with General and Social Anxiety Disorder.  During these past 3 years, I have had many doctor appointments, therapy appointments and paid out of pocket for a neuropsych test to rule out the spectrum.  Due to the time this mental illness consumes and her inability to get herself into school, my course has been put on hold and I have re-purchased it two more times in the hopes of still becoming an agent.  As of today, I waitress 4 times a month which barely covers the cost of food shopping.  In addition, the school system filed a 51A which was quickly closed and then a CRA for truancy even though MA Education Law states a child with GAD/SAD is not nor can be considered truant.  We have had to take her to court and now the school is threatening to place her in a program out of the home for up to 4 months and she would then be considered a child of the state.  I have been trying desperately to find a pro bono lawyer but with no success.

In my application I stated I needed assistance for Mortgage Foreclosure however, I chose to tell my story because I am uncomfortable with the amount I am requesting and wanted any donor to know why the amount is so high.  Over these difficult years, I have depleted my 401k (roughly 400K before tax and penalty), I was on a forbearance plan with my mortgage carrier and just got denied for a modification to reinstate my mortgage.  I would need roughly 35k to save my home.  We have close to 42K in credit debt and owe over 50k in tax debt because of the early retirement withdrawal.

To be able to get back on our feet, I am kindly requesting $130,000 to reinstate my mortgage and pay off my tax and credit card debt.  I would love to put back the $400 K from my retirement however, feel I, at 52, can hopefully work to recover this money to be able to retire and if I can’t then I’ll work as long as I am able.  In addition to the above challenges, I suffer from Lupus which sadly is often triggered by stress.  Although I am often in joint pain with severe fatigue, I have and will continue to push forward for my family and am well aware there are thousands of people in worse scenarios than my own.  For this reason as well as the love of my daughters, I will continue to do what I can to bring in an income.  I did just accept another waitressing position so now have 2 more nights a week I work which will help us financially.

To say I am grateful to anyone that has read my story is an under statement.  I will continue to hope that someone out there reads my story and may be able to assist me.  Should nothing come of this then at least I know I am still trying the best I can to give whatever I can to support my family.

In the end of The Giving Tree,  the tree was still able to give something to the boy as only a stump, this gives me hope that, I too ,can find a way to keep giving.

Thank you for reading and for your consideration.

 

Sincerely,

Nikki Fazo

Hi there, my name is Daniel and my family and I are in need of serious financial help in order to save our home and our dreams.

So 6 years ago my wonderful wife and I decided to buy a Home on 5 acres and pursue our dreams to start our own small farm business and have more time to spend with our 2 kids and each other as well as create something we could leave for our children and their children. Unfortunately things didn’t go as planned.

The first 2 years were great! We were making good money and reinvesting all of it into our business. Each year we were successfully growing and expanding our little business. These were the good times.

After those first 2 years passed we hit our first real hurdle. I was diagnosed with severe panic disorder and became unable to work independently. This was devastating. Not being able to afford healthcare on top of that meant any and all treatments came out of pocket. The next hurdle we faced the following season was financial. Our crops market value crashed by 500%! We went from making $200k a year to making around $16k a year. Its been this way for the past 3 years.

We felt defeated and heartbroken. As time went by bills just kept accumulating and we couldn’t get back to square one. If we lose our home we lose our business too. As of now we are $75k in debt and we are officially in foreclosure. We only have until March 15th to get this sorted out. We have no other choice but to reach out to the world for divine assistance.

Our hearts and souls are poured into this land and I don’t want my family to lose everything. We are so close to success. Our farm is running well and the market is shifting. We just have to get out of this debt in order to make it to another harvest and save the farm and our family from total collapse.

We are kindly and graciously asking and praying for $75k.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story.
