DDear kind donors,

I hope this message goes deeply  to the bottom  of your heart. I am reaching out with a heartfelt request for assistance as I embark on the exciting journey of purchasing my first home. As I take this significant step towards establishing a stable future for myself and my family, I am humbly seeking any support that you might be able to offer.

As a family of 6 me, my husband  and 4 kids: 9,7,5,4 years old living in a 1 bedroom  apartment with no storage, no rooms  for the kids, no privacy  for me and my husband and even sometimes  helping  others  who  have no where to stay  for a few months

So, wning a home has always been a cherished dream of me and my husband.  It symbolizes not only financial security but also a place where memories will be created and cherished for years to come. After careful planning and diligent saving, working on our credit I find myself on the cusp of turning this dream into a reality. However, the financial aspect,  the high home prices, the high mortgage rates remain a challenge, and that’s where your support could make an enormous difference.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would be immensely appreciated and would go directly towards helping cover the down payment, closing costs, and initial furnishing of the house. Your generosity would alleviate a significant burden and allow me to start this new chapter in my life with a strong foundation.

If you’re unable to provide financial assistance, I completely understand. There are other ways you could help too. Perhaps you could offer advice based on your own home buying experience, recommend reliable real estate agents or lenders, or simply share words of encouragement that will boost my confidence during this pivotal time.

I truly believe that community and support are essential elements in achieving one’s goals, and I am fortunate to have people like you in my life who I can turn to for assistance. Your kindness would not only impact me but also create a lasting ripple effect in shaping my future.

Thank you for taking the time to read my heartfelt plea. If you’re willing and able to contribute, please let me know the best way to proceed. Regardless of your decision, I am grateful for your friendship

Myrlande,

Hello everyone, I am a good person.  I have been through it but I didn’t let the obstacles stop me from helping others.  I raised to kids without their mother who died of breast cancer while I was in the military.  I retired from the military shortly after their mom died.  I won custody of both from their biological father.  They are grown and moving on with their lives. I started a small home improvement business to help people. Then I had to drive between Virginia and Maryland supporting and caring for my 92 year old Grandmother and dialysis patient Mother.  They are both deceased as of last year.  Now things with my bills have over taken me.  I tried to make ends meet in two states.  But now I need help.  Covid affected me and my ability to work family but we lived through it. After covid I was trying to get on track and the mortgage company isn’t honoring the mitigation and wants to foreclose and now I am about to have my vehicle repossessed.  Any amount will help.  I have 30 days left to come up with a little over $92,000 to prevent foreclosure and 10 days before repossession.  I do receive disability from the military but I still work. I am willing to payback or pay it forward once I am on track again. Please I pray for your help. PayPal.me/ericdewitt1

Good afternoon,

My name is Ty and I just recently lost my full time job at the airport. I lost it back in the end of July and I am late on my July car note and household bills are stacking up. I was denied unemployment benefits. All month I have been applying for jobs and going to job fairs in the area. I must have applied to at least hundred jobs and about four job fairs this month. I job search and send out my resume daily. I did not know that it was this hard to land a job. I  I have yet to land a job and I have not gotten any calls back to come in for an interview. My car note is $500 a month and my household bills are $700. I live in Houston, Tx and this summer has been extremely hot which is making my bills higher for the A/C and lights. I need to keep my car because the area I live in does not provide access to public transportation and I need to continue to seek employment to get back on my feet.  I know the good Lord will send help my way and I truly believe this community is where He has led me to ask for help. I know the good Lord will open a door for a job opportunity for me and I will continue to keep my faith strong because I know He will not leave me or forsake me. I will continue to stay strong and hopeful because there are awesome people in this world who have a heart to people and it just takes me opening my mouth to ask for the help.

This is for Michael and Marko.  My two loves.  The only loves I have finally in my life.  Michael is my fiance from England.  Yes, accent aside, he is the most wonderful loving funny man you’d ever meet.  And Marko, my loving loving kind son.  He loves God and animals. And they both share a love of gaming (still trying to get me into it, I’m just not quite there yet).

They are both in hard spots in life.  Mick has had his 2nd heart attack.  This has dramatically affected us financially.  Our goals of owning a home as well as visiting his family back in England are no where in sight.  Emotionally and physically, he is drained and stressed.  His sense of humor is faint…but still there ;)  –(just shared a story of his Pa sending him to the shop for a long stand.  He gets there & asks the shop owner for one.  He asks, who sent him, Mick replies “Me Pa”, so the owner sends him to a spot to wait.  Eventually, Mick goes back to him & says, “well?”, The owner replies…”Havent you had a long enough one yet?”  Took me a moment, but then laughed and laughed.  He gets his sense of humor from his dad.  Both his parents and brother all died of heart attacks, so I know this adds to his anxiety, that he has survived through his second.

Marko, my son, is approaching puberty.  He is struggling watching us financially figure things out, as we have been planning on a home for him to get a pup. But, the heart attack has stopped that plan for the moment.  We want the best for him now, as well as for the future.  A home, a vacation (to England of course) and a dog as well as a college fund.  He is dealing with school as he gets bullied and wants to return to home schooling like he did during COVID. Lots for a kid to figure out.

I work as a restaurant manager.  Long hard hours, but all we have at the moment.  I need Dental work (I feel bad complaining about my teeth when he has a heart condition), but the pain is unbearable somedays. Anyways,  My goal is to get us a house somehow…find a work at home job to do both as I don’t have the energy to work 50 hrs a week and then go to another job, and care for them So hoping to find something I can do at home from anywhere to compliment my income as Mick will never be able to work again.

This is our story.  I don’t know how, but believe…I have to believe we can do this.  I can’t focus on the over $100,000 medical bills and climbing because he needs Cardio Rehab. (I plan on sending everyone $20/mo ;), as well as achieving our life goals.  I have to believe we can have a home…a house to call our own.  I do love and am greatful for our apartment, I really do.  But, honestly, I am exhausted after work, love caring for them both afterwards, but want to be able to give them a home, a reliable car. Some peace of mind that things WILL work out. Selfishly, I need a light to help me help them. I do smile and it is genuine, I am greatful that I can work and for our apartment, but I am praying and ask for kindness and help or guidance.

Thank you for your time. And if anything, please be kind to others as working in a restaurant with the public. People tend to treat you like crap…so please be kind to those around you just trying to make it through the day to get home and care for those they love.

This is a long shot but I will be so grateful if someone reads and helps. Thank you so much in advance!

My husband does not know I’m asking for money. He is the hardest working man I know and I’m just trying to go out on a whim to help him do what he’s trying so hard to do. He currently has three jobs and here’s why.

We have three daughters, we just moved to our current state about a year ago. My husband got hired on with an investment company after working in law enforcement for 5 years. Law enforcement was draining for him and after thinking hard about this decision, we decided that he needed to find a different career. Our marriage was in the rocks. Working in that field of work will do that. Just as he was looking for a new opportunity, he tore his Achilles tendon playing football at church with the youth group that he helped out with. That put him out of work and on disability for 4 months. But oh wait… his disability got denied for 3 months. We were scraping by but no big deal, people get by like this everyday.

He had surgery and we hoped would recover fully and be able to go back to work until he found a better and more healthy line of work for our family.  He was never able to go back to working in that field due to the fact that he still to this day can’t run and is therefore not considered 100% able.

That happened November 15th, 2021. Fast forward to February 2022, we took a step in the dark (because we didn’t have much money) and paid for my husband and I (my kids stayed with my sister) to fly out of state for an interview at my cousins investment company.  We were gone for 5 days. In that five days, our water heater (located in our laundry room inside our house) burst and flooded our house for 5 straight days. We literally lost everything. By the time we got home and stepped into our house, there was already mold on the walls, in the walls, EVERYTHING was wet and absolutely ruined. It was devastating. We thought it couldn’t get any worse but unfortunately everything went down hill from there.

My husband accepted the job he was offered at the investment company, he drove all the way across the country to start work while I stayed back and took care of the insurance nightmare with our house. That was a really hard time for us, living apart and my daughters missing their dad but it was all in the name of making a better life for us, a more healthy life. In that time, I was staying in a hotel with my girls, and our things from our flooded house that weren’t ruined (guns, gun safe, jewelry etc..) were placed in a storage unit in a different location during repairs. One night, someone broke into the storage unit and stole my husbands guns, his great grandfathers shotgun, and gun safe. They took irreplaceable family jewelry, they even stole my three girls’ piggy banks. That broke my heart the most. At that point, I hadn’t seen my husband in 3 months, the house wasn’t done being repaired and in fact, no where near being finished. I made the decision to move anyways.  I took was little we had left and drove my kids and our dog across the country in hopes that I could manage dealing with the contractors and listing of our house once repaired form across the country. All is well, we get to our new state, 4 months later, our house is fixed and we sell it. We didn’t make all that much from the sell but enough to put down on another little  house and start our lives in our new state with my husbands new job. It took us 2 months to find a house we liked and could afford. My husband started out at a lower wage but was contractually promised a raise after 10 months of good work. 3 more months passed and literally the very day after we closed escrow on our house, and the day before my husband is supposed to get his raise, my cousin announces that the company had gone belly up, they’re shutting business down and my husband was FIRED. My cousin fired everyone. Not even laid off, he fired them. My husband came home crying. Balling. Didn’t know what to do or what he did to deserve that. My cousin then took all my husbands business leads from the past 10 months and made money for himself. He never actually shut down his business like he said he was going to but did a hostile take over of the company from the co-owner of the company and cut any and all ties with ever everyone involved. My cousin and the co owner are still in legal battles to date.

Here we are, in a new state, my husband is jobless, we have this new mortgage payment and it is yet again a struggle. It’s been 4 months since that happened and my husband is severely depressed. He feels like a failure. He’s regretting even leaving law enforcement but I know in my heart it was the right thing if we can just get passed all this. He went and got his real estate license. He got it in 4 weeks, he studied until 4am multiple nights and passed the test the first time! Now he has to build clients in this new state where we don’t know anyone which has proven to be a lot harder than it seems. He also got a job at an excavation company and he works for 6am-3:30. He comes home, starts real estate and just got a position as a sales rep for a flooring company and he will do that from 6-8 pm. The man is a hard worker. He really needs it be cut a break and I just see his happiness fading. I’m worried about him.  We don’t have the money to move back, but we don’t have the money to move forward. We have young kids and if I worked, it would only pay for their daycare at this point. I take night classes at the local college and shop for instacart. I am also working on getting my real estate license but the problem is that it costs $2,000 to become a member of the real estate board, then you have all the testing fees and such. We are on our last month of emergency funds that we had saved up. With what my husband is making now, we are still $2,000 short every month. It’s terrifying. I don’t know what we’re going to do next month. But I know that if given just 3 more months, we I will have my license, and we could really get our feet back on the ground. I know we’re going to be okay but I just want the best for my family and am worried. Our bills total $3,600 per month. Anything helps and if this works, I will cry tears of joy and be so so thankful. Thank you so much for reading.

My dad is in the hospital dying. Two months ago, my dad woke up one morning with excruciating back pain, and because he is in his 70s as an old man, it was very hard for him to deal with it, especially since he is a dialysis patient with a weak heart and a history of 7 to 8 heart attacks. My sister and I have done home-hemodialysis with him for 3 years since 2020, and we have been diligent about his dialysis schedule to make sure he got 4 treatments—as required—every single week; however, ever since the back pain, my dad’s health has been rapidly declining, and it still is. My sister and I would drive our dad to and from hospitals as far as 2 hours away just so he could get pain relief. The hospital drives became more frequent because his right hip—that has always been a chronic problem—went out, and he became crippled. Because of the frequent trips to the hospitals, especially those that are far away, his home-hemodialysis schedule was never 4 treatments a week for the past 2 months, and now, he is in the nearest hospital lying on his death bed. The fluid around his weakened heart builds up no matter how much the medical staff drain it. He is sleeping in the hospital right now, but it has been made clear that he will not make it; my dad has stated this too, long before his care team even came to that conclusion. He may have only a few days left, and my sister and I have a house mortgage to pay along with other bills. My sister and I have been our elderly father’s caretakers for the past 3 years since the COVID-19 pandemic shortly after we graduated from university, so we have never worked, and we have no money. We have a house mortgage to pay every month along with utilities, cellphone bills, and internet. We also have a car note to pay every month, and another car that needs repair to the driver mirror because the driver mirror is gone. September is coming up, and we need money to pay for these things, for my sister and I may not get jobs in time, and even if we do, we cannot make up that kind of money in a matter of two weeks! Please, we need $50,000 to cover the costs of the house mortgage, utility bills, cellphone bills, internet bill, insurance, car note, car repair, gas, and groceries until my sister and I can get hired and save enough money to stand on our own feet. My dad’s wishes are to be cremated and to have his ashes in an urn, and we need money for that, too. We are facing our dad’s death, and we are begging for money.

Thank you for viewing my request. I would like to share my story with you. The litigations of my divorce from a marriage of 19 years and 10 months, have lingered for nearly 8 years. It was inevitable and I had to file Bankruptcy Chapter 13 (still paying debts and attorney fees), to save my homestead for me and my three children. My former spouse had abandoned us and left me with his financial obligations, that had been ongoing from his first marriage. The absence of my formal spouse’s income has affected me and the children in numerous ways. In addition, my home has been damaged from hail and water leaks that I repaired, but set me back further to keep up with utilities, mortgage, divorce attorney fees, student loans, medical bills, and more. Presently, I am experiencing financial hardship and I have exhausted all of my resources. I have been for a few years, visiting food pantries from churches and requested assistance from local non-profit organizations.  I was working 2 jobs which one was PRN (to earn extra to catch up with bills) and the other was full time. I was overwhelmed, but I planned to keep going until I completed the bankruptcy plan which I need to complete in 26 more months. Unfortunately, the unexpected happened and I lost my full-time job in January 2023.  I have been diligently seeking for a job that would pay a good salary to keep up with all my bills, but nothing has surfaced. We had purchased our home in January of 2008 and ever since I had created many fortunate and fond memories with my family and friends. In my home, I had hosted birthdays, graduations, baby showers, Tupperware, and even a wedding in November 2022. I can not even conceive the idea of losing my precious home and all of my investment in repairing or remodeling my home (solely on my income). My kitchen still needs repairs from the sink pipes that had busted and caused water damage. The bathroom upstairs pipes leaked and dripped to my closet downstairs. The most important goal for me, is to be able to pay off the bankruptcy so I can keep my home. I had modified the plan to buy me time, because the monthly bill was too high. The attorney informed me that I had exceeded my limits and the bill will rise in October 2023. That frightens me, because that means if I cannot pay, they will Foreclose my home. I am committed to not give up and have faith that a miracle will happen for me and my children. Thank you all for your help and may you receive in return seven times more!

Respectfully,

Edith

I am requesting a goal for the dollar amount of $75,000 to pay off the debts and save our home.

I am a father raising two boys in Jamaica. I was on top of the world at one time, working for a company that paid me well. I got a calling to retire from that job to start my own company Good News Jamaica Communications Limited, because the image of Jamaica to the media world is negative, and I was to do the work to change that narrative. Good News Jamaica is making slow progress as it is an uphill battle on a slippery slope, with frequent landslides above.

I never imagined that changing a person’s mindset would be hard, much less in a nation of over 2 million.

Even though I started with lots of fervour, COVID-19 hit us hard. I lost my clients because they could no longer afford to pay us for their PR work. Because of that, I lost my staff because I could not afford to make payroll after some time.

I approached my bank three different times to grant us a moratorium, and they gracefully did. It saved us tremendously as we were getting jobs and were able to create a surplus for when the moratorium ended. After the third moratorium, I was embarrassed to ask for a fourth, so I went to the States and drove Uber and Lyft for the summer to make enough money to take us through the rest of the year with school for the boys and house bills.  Luckily my wife, who lives in America, got a job and could send some assistance now and again.

Well, this summer, I got two major projects that would really set me up well financially, so I decided to send the boys to their mother so that I could concentrate on the contracts. It was a good move, I thought until both contracts were cancelled because the clients could not come up with the funding. I only found out they didn’t have the funding after I committed to staying in Jamaica and sent the boys to their mom.

Of course, I was devastated. But, I began to look online for jobs and decided I would make it work in Jamaica one way or another.

Well, here I am, August and only one client. I make just about US$600 with this client managing his website and training his intern. My mortgage is US$1,500, and even though I have put in almost every dollar I receive, I will be behind a total of 2 months come September.

Recently I called the bank to see if a moratorium was possible, but they said no. They said as long as I’m in arrears, I’m not eligible.

My Paypal.me link is below, and I would really appreciate your assistance. My boys come home in a week. I don’t know what I’m going to do. I have mortgage and school fees. The school fee for the first term equals US$1,000. Any help is much appreciated.

So the total that I need to gather is US$4,000. I’m able to do small support jobs for my utilities and food, and that’s why I’m only asking for mortgage and school fees. I also have a few proposals out there that I really feel good about, so I’m confident that once I get in front of the mortgage, something will come through, and I can manage.

Unfortunately, Jamaica is not a choice in the “Your location” section below, so since I have a USA account, I’m putting my location as USA. My picture will show you where I am, though.

Thank you for your time.

Expecting an additional job that did not quite pan out. We have defaulted in our mortgage. We have 30 days to bring the mortgage current or the bank will proceed with foreclosure proceedings. Married, two daughters (9 and 17), my mother, and two international students that live with us (15 and 13). Not ideal to lose a house. Not too many options to find a place to move to with 7 people. The additional job was supposed to help with the mortgage payments, and I did a poor job assuming the job would pan out. My current job gives us a fighting chance to afford the mortgage payment, but it is not enough to catch up on the amount we are behind.

I’m 41 years old. A paraplanner. My wife is 44, she is in nursing school. I also volunteer to coach girls’ basketball. I’ve had the excitement of coaching both of my daughters. In addition to providing for our daughters, we also provide for my mother. My mother had to drop out of school at a young age, after losing both of her parents, so she never really had the opportunity to save a nest egg for her retirement years. As an extension of coaching girls’ basketball, we now have the honor to host two young ladies from Africa attending school here in the United States. It is an experience we enjoy watching them take part in.

My wife and I met in the Air Force. We served 4 years. The mortgage we have is a VA loan, it helped us by the house 7 years ago. We were able to move into the house a few months after our youngest daughter was born. It is not a big house, but we’ve made it a home, and have helped many families. This time we are the ones that need the help.

I’m not sure if this post will work at all. It is my hail Mary in a difficult time. If you find it within you to help us out, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
