A Senior Citizen Really Needs Your Help

I am a 60-year-old woman. I had a full-time job, but I was out of work due to a medical condition I was recently diagnosed with. I have painful bladder syndrome, and it is really painful. In the past, I was always healthy, so this came as a big surprise, and it has changed my life.

 

I am in the process of waiting to be approved for social security disability, and they take a long time to either approve or deny your application. In the meantime, I am not earning money to help me while I am waiting for them.

 

I have never been one to get government help, such as food stamps, and I have worked all my life since the age of 16 years old. I truly do not like to ask for money from people, but I am really in a desperate situation.

 

Also, I will need to go through some treatments soon, as I don’t yet have social security disability or insurance until I am approved for it, I can’t help myself like I usually would.

I need money to survive on and to pay for treatments until I get disability.

I estimate that I will need about $5,000 to $8,000 to pay my bills, eat, and get treatments.

I appreciate any help anyone can give me. I send you blessings and positive energy in advance.

Young Family in Desperate Financial Need

 

Hi everyone,

My name is Katlyn, and writing this request has been incredibly difficult. I never imagined I’d be asking strangers for help, but life has become so overwhelming that my husband and I feel like we’re drowning. We’ve tried everything to stay afloat, but life keeps throwing us unexpected challenges.

Over the past two years, we’ve been struggling financially due to job losses, accumulating debt, and mounting bills. The biggest setback is keeping up with loan payments for our vehicle which was stolen in 2024. To avoid legal action from the bank, we’ve been carrying a $80k loan balance. The insurance company refuses to settle the claim, so we’re stuck with this burden. We’ve maxed out our credit cards, and our savings account, which was used to pay our mortgage for those two years, is now depleted. Despite trying to manage everything on our own, we’ve reached a point where we truly need support.

We’re seeking your assistance of approximately $30k to help cover our smaller debts. Any amount, no matter how small, would mean the world to us. This financial relief would help ease some of our burdens and bring a sense of normalcy back to my family.

Every day has been a struggle between survival and falling behind. We’re actively working to improve our situation for our two children, and we haven’t given up, but we desperately need a helping hand to get through this difficult time.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for showing compassion to a family going through such a tough time. Your kindness could truly make a life-changing difference for us.

Totaled the car when I hit a deer, now I can’t get to visit with my son

https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/FWJ8VB8KCZKN6

 

Three days ago, I hit a deer and it totaled my car, a 2008 Honda Element with about 130,000 miles on it. It wasn’t anything fancy, but it was reliable, good on gas, and it got me where I needed to go.

I live in the South where public transportation really isn’t an option, and I just started a new job, so not having a vehicle has made everything difficult. But the hardest part is that my 5-year-old son currently lives about an hour away, and I’m working hard to get him back in my custody.

Right now I have visitation once or twice a week, and without a car, I can’t reliably get to see him. He’s the most important thing in my life, and I’m trying to do everything I can to be there for him and build a stable life for us.

I’m not asking for anything fancy. I just need help getting something dependable so I can work, make my visits, and keep moving forward.

If you’re able to help in any way, I would be deeply grateful. And if you can’t help financially, prayers for me and my son would still mean a lot.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Mortgage Help and Credit Cards and Car accident

Greetings,

Three years ago, I was in a major car accident, I was rear-ended and since then I have not worked a day, as for a regular job.  I have health issues now, and I don’t know if I can work again.  I am currently not on disability though recently was a candidate for food assistance program.  I have been living off of my savings, credit cards and a modest rental property income which I was smart to keep for a rental.  An older home that I bought years ago and kept for rental.    It needs some repair, so you know I can rent it out at a higher rate that can generate a better income than now.  To do so I need to install a central heat cooling system and a new roof.  That’s the least, just to make it up to date, and rentable. This house is my only source of income, that I receive less than five hundred a month from.  I am currently posting it up for sale, but because it is old and needs remodeling, I can’t get much for it.  Add to that, it is my only source of income.  I would really like to keep it as an income source since I don’t work.  I have heart problems, and other health issues.

I also live in a duplex, also very old, and I cannot rent the side that is vacant right now, it needs to be fixed, major issues such as plumbing, the bathroom and tub don’t work, and the water is not connected completely.  Also, it has no heating or cooling.  The windows are totally warned out, and it gets cold because of windows issues so I cannot install a central heat.  It is located in a good street, and I think it’s a nice city there is a school cross from it and I think if I can fix it, it will make the neighborhood look better, also it will generate a better income.  the front of my side of the duplex where I reside has a walkway to my door that has been raised and messed up by an older tree roots that’s making it a hazardous to walk on, not walkable at all,  the tree is big and is in my yard, that I cannot fix.  the path is made out of cement and needs to be pulled by a crane it’s too heavy.  Also, all windows need to be replaced in the whole duplex.  This is my only other property I have that I currently reside in.  I started fixing my duplex, hoping to rent the vacant side however, I ran out of money, and I really want to fix the whole duplex nicely, it’s in a location that is near shops and it’s convenient.  If fixed I think the street will look much better, and I can rent the vacant side for an income in addition to the rented home I think I can then live off of both incomes.

Since the car accident, I have been living off of my savings and the modest income I receive from the rented home however, since I do not work, I started using credit cards to spend and fix some areas in the duplex that needed help badly-there was rat-infestation issues.    However, I did not have any other source of income; I used too much of that and took out a loan hoping to get the duplex rented but that did not work out as I planned.  It took a lot of tolls on me, and my credit cards are close to twenty grand in balance, something I did not want at all.  I also missed my first mortgage payment this month on my duplex I filled out a financial hardship with the mortgage company, and I hope they can help me, and I can keep a roof over my head.

I have worked very hard throughout the years, and I really just want to have whatever years left to live in dignity and be able just for once in years now, to have an A/C that works it gets really hot in the summer especially June and July and I am really worried that my heart is going to give me issues.  I really appreciate you and thanks in advance this is the only post and my first time doing this.  Thank you!

Disabled with a bad roof needing spinal surgery

Hello my name is Kelly. I have been disabled for a long time due to injury and serious health problems. I had fought for years to receive disability benefits and have not been able to work and provide to our families income. My husband Brian has been working long crazy hours to support our family he had a great job with wonderful insurance. His division was sold to a different company and the insurance is expensive and lacks the coverage I need. I go to doctors at least 3 times a week to receive treatments. About a year ago we had a tree go through our roof our insurance company would not cover saying our roof was to old, as we had water leaking into our bedroom damaged walls and mold in our attic, we had to put on a new roof. We had no savings or cash on hand to pay for said roof we had to go with a company that offered financing with high interest rates. Flash forward to a March 2026 a major storm came through and destroyed our chimney and damaged our roof. Insurance is not paying enough to cover. My husband has decided to take a job that pays less because the insurance is better as I need several surgeries on my spine and knee, hip replacements as well as medication costs. I am needing $50,000 to pay off our roof and get it fixed as well as my out of pocket for surgery. I am so worried that my health is going to cause us to lose our home. We would be grateful for any help that is given. I would love to be well enough to go back into the work force and be able to help others and repay the kindness to anyone who helps us.

Thank you,

Kelly

I’m Shawne,51 ; mother of 4 2 grown n two teenagers in 10th& 11 th grade . I’m asking for help cus I’m currently struggling financially since I’ve left my kids father almost a year ago. My current situation is I’m in court w landlord for negligence which retaliation is my defense for withholding my rent due to uninhabitable circumstances mold ,pest infestation , leaks, non functional essential appliances, broken doors/windows. The landlord has decided to evict me n say non payment to evict. I called for code violations to see if I was at fault or landlord. Inspection concluded the landlord was responsible, the violator in this matter so  I was to be evicted 4/7/26 but because I had a pending extension because my step father died n landlord filed a motion to evict cus I didn’t respond on time it was granted until I filed a motion against it n judgement was in my favor to stay the writ. Thank goodness! But im no lawyer or even know what im doing really but it’s working . I have lived here 8 years without arrears til now n this rental isn’t much but I was able to afford until I put my kids father out . We did 50/50 on bills now I’m struggling financially. Now that I called for this inspection n the landlord failed they want to evict n say non payment when im paying to court in escrow n I got IFP cus im on snap n ssdi/ ssi . That helped me to get my appeal n not have to pay the amount of back rent due to landlord. So I have to stay w my payment of rent to court in order to keep the case alive. I’m so glad I found out about this helping hand of hope for struggling family , thankful to have this opportunity to tell my story. I’m asking for help w lawyers, move, car, money of any sort to keep us afloat to be able to afford my bills. My electric will be shut off on 5/17/26 . I’m at my wits end but I had to get out of the relationship that I was only showing integrity for. This was a big step for me to do cus I was in this relationship for more then half my life . The emotional, mentally draining relationship between him and I have taken a toll on our kids as well. It’s been hard to get through this situation alone . So I started doing research n came across this website where I might be able to get help with my life financially, cus I’m on a fixed income . My life is a mess right now and I’m overwhelmed with all this stress, money problems, court proceedings, etc. . I’m trying to get myself out of the darkness cus I am so sad/depressed and it’s spilling over to my sons who life is about to start . I’m not a man but I’m raising them to the best of my knowledge. Now they haven’t any men in their lives my dad is deceased 1981, my grandfather 2014 cancer deceased, my stepdad3/6/26 COPD. Their grandfather on dad side left his family a long time ago. His grandfather is deceased as well. I do have a grown son who’s trying to help but he’s in a different state, now he’s preparing to be a dad and I’m not trying to make him do that anymore because he’s gonna get his own baby soon. I feel like a burden , also their own father was here but absent cus he was dishonest and betrayed the trust in us all. I would appreciate any help of any kind for me and my sons to move onto a new beginning. Our new chapter needs love respect and honesty.  Thank you again truly appreciative and humbly grateful.

Seeking Stability to Secure My Small Business Future and Home

To anyone taking the time to read this, I want to express my sincere gratitude for your attention. My name is Ryan, and I am reaching out today because I have found myself in a position where my drive to build a future has been temporarily outpaced by immediate, pressing financial obligations. Specifically, I am seeking assistance to cover my rent and basic living expenses for this month to avoid eviction and keep my business operations alive.

For the past several years, I have poured my energy into the aviation industry and entrepreneurship. I operate a compliance consultancy focused on helping Part 135 aviation operators navigate the complex regulatory environment, and I have been working tirelessly to launch a coffee brand. My goal has always been to be a provider and a creator—someone who contributes to the economy and supports those around me. However, as many small business owners know, the transition from “building” to “sustainable” is often a razor-thin line.

Recently, a combination of delayed business funding and a lull in consulting contracts has created a perfect storm. While I have applications in for business financing and am actively pursuing new leads, those solutions are not moving as fast as the calendar. I currently live in Forney, Texas, and as the first of the month has passed, the weight of the overhead for both my home and my small business office has become a source of immense stress. My primary concern is maintaining a stable roof over my head so that I can continue the work I’ve started.

When you are an entrepreneur, your home is often your headquarters. Losing my housing wouldn’t just mean losing a place to sleep; it would mean losing the infrastructure I need to manage my aviation compliance work and keep my coffee startup moving forward. I have spent months fine-tuning branding and logistics, and I am so close to seeing these projects yield results. To fall short now, due to a temporary gap in cash flow, feels like watching years of hard work slip away.

I am not looking for a permanent hand-out, but rather a bridge to get me through this specific month. Your donation would go directly toward my rent and the utility bills required to keep my home office functional. It would buy me the time needed for my pending funding to clear and for my current business projects to regain their footing.

I understand that many people are facing their own struggles, which makes any contribution you can provide even more meaningful. Whether it is $5 or $50, every bit helps me close the gap and stay focused on my goal of returning to a position where I can once again be the one giving back to others. Thank you for your kindness, your empathy, and for considering my story.

I suck at writing but the need is real

I don’t have a super long text like others on this site, I know, but I’m testing my luck.

I’m short $1200 for rent this month due to unexpected life stuff (we call it life lol). If you can help, I’d really appreciate it. That’s it. I’m not great at writing these but the need is real.

If I get through this month, I’m going to try helping others in the same spot,

A Caregiver’s Wish

Hi,

My name is April and I would like to purchase a house valued is at $400,000.

So, a little background. My roommate and I are caregivers.  Around 2016, a relative of a friend visited me and asked me to be a caregiver to her sister- in- law.  I resisted because she wanted me to move into her sister- in- laws home, and I liked my independence.  But she insisted.  I told her I would agree only after she accepts my roommate, which she did.

The conditions of this arrangement were that I WAS NOT going to be paid.  But I would live at her house rent free. At that time, my roommate and I both had jobs, and the lady at the time was able to take care of herself.  The reason for us being there was because she had a severe accident after drinking and damaged her shoulder.  Her sister-in-law wanted someone to be there with her to keep an eye on her.

She was in her 80’s at the time we moved in, and while struggling, she was still self-sufficient.  She had a little dog, who she let pee in the house, and her house was very chaotic and had strong smell.  Nevertheless, we accepted the job.

We would later find out that she has dementia.   Dementia requires 24/7 care, especially when it progresses.  We didn’t know about this issue when we first accepted the job.  And the first few years living with her things would be okay.  We got the house in order, trained her dog, cleaned things up, and started routine. The lady was actually fiercely independent but REQUIRED our help.  My roommate eventually had to leave her job, and she spent the who day caring for the lady.  I was also giving the job of helping another family member.  After about a year, my roommate requested pay for taking care of the lady and eventually they agreed to a small sum, about $200 a week.  I was not paid.

Throughout the years, her dementia would progress.  She would forget things, repeat a lot. She would do a lot of Sundowning where they start expressing how they want to go home.  She would have mood swings and bouts of anger.  She would try to leave the house to walk home to New Jersey, we live in Florida. And so many other symptoms.  We had to keep locks on the door, and eventually we would need to monitor her with cameras.  My roommate would eventually ask for more pay and after family members rebuked the lady, she agreed to give her $500 a week.  I still did not get paid and it was going on 8 years.  We also adjusted the lady’s diet, so she ate very well and very healthy.  We took her out to restaurants and cafés and other activities.  And doctors and nurses complimented how excellent her health was and how well she was doing for her age.  She was even able to go off several medications.

As her symptoms progressed, my roommate would have nervous breakdown, and I had to do a lot more with taking care of the lady as well as my other jobs, I still was not paid for this one.  My roommate eventually got fed up with me not being paid and started to present it to the lady’s sister-in-law.  Finally, she agreed to pay me $200 a week.  The would be in the final year and a half of the lady’s life.  She started to completely decline and would eventually be bedridden. We took care of her and changed her in bed and did all we could, and eventually after several months, she passed away at 97 years old.  We took care of her for 10 years.

In the time I took care of Isobel, I could only work part time (babysitting, nanny, caregiving), I work low-income to allow people to afford these services.  So, I make between $200-$350 a week.  But I could not work full because I needed the time to care for the lady.

So, for the house.  It is the house we lived in to take care of the lady.  The family wants to sell it, and I would like to buy it.  I need help because I need the money to accomplish this endeavor.

Thank-you.

The Art of Noticing someone in need

Hello Kind Stranger,

My name is Brendan, and I am reaching out for some assistance during a really challenging time, and to put it out into the universe for some extra help moving forward.

I have worked in a disability support role for the past 13 years, am currently supporting my Mother who is going through some completely debilitating mental and physical issues (without access to full support),  and myself battling with a crisis of identity, worth and purpose.

I have had some of the best and worst years of my life recently, having lost family members, an intense loving relationship, my main supply of income, vehicles and self worth.  I spent the last year and a half destroying myself physically and mentally, and as a coping mechanism: financially. It has taken all of my savings to survive and cope and I am now in a fairly desperate situation. So much so I have needed to borrow money from family, have tax that I can’t pay and support I wish to provide that I simply can’t. With the cost of living the way it has been, and I desire not to exist, it has been a challenging time in my life.

Forward to today, and I am slowly getting better. I haven’t been able to work, I am on some gentle medication to get above the bottom line I have been living on for so long. I have started walking, and going to the gym and interacting with life again. I so love life, and supporting people and being there for others, it feels really good to be present again. My dream was, is and always will be to become a positive influence on the planet, to run videos and moments of helping people in need, inspired by people like Sam (Itssozer) and Zach (MDMotivator). If I won enough in the lotto, or came upon a few million where I could help my Mum live off the interest, and utilise the rest to do what these guy do, I would.

I have made many mistakes over this time, I had opportunities during the NFT and crypto space where I could have been well off and fulfilled the dreams I was chasing. I was either too scared or had too much going on that it fell apart, and I have been working hard to not live in regret. I had a car issue where it took 6 months to resolve, organised another vehicle in the meantime then sold the old one, only to have the new one be a lemon and basically ruin me as a throw away. I have taken opportunities out of fear for less that could have been something and turned into nothing. There is too much to list.

Today I am asking for assistance with my biggest primary concern, which is paying back a loan from family. It is $2500 AUD, which if I was in the right space mentally and capable I would of course not be asking. Any assistance in this matter would be so incredible and mean so much to me. You would be bringing a safety net to a situation that feels so daunting and impossible.

I have tax owing of more than $10,000 AUD, and a dream to be able to support my Mum moving forward to get to a place of peace and safety. I always have a moment where I can vividly picture millions in the bank, and just letting her live off the interest. She is in such a space of turmoil mentally and physically, seeing her fear and anxiety is soul destroying.

I am focusing hard come up with ideas to make this a reality, and time will tell what I can come up with. I am passionate about life, about noticing the beauty of it and bringing positivity and peace in a time when so much is in chaos. I often feel being an empath and someone who is always a foundation of support for people, it is sometimes so disheartening seeing what people are willing to do to be well off but it working for them, and missing out on so much of it because I am not. This is all just extra of course, but if I don’t put it out into the universe to manifest something, how will I ever know what’s possible.

Regardless of any outcomes, thank you whoever you are for your time to read and allow me to be heard. I am in need, but I am ok and I know there are plenty that are worse off and likely need it so much more than I do. I am honestly just so ready for a win in life, it feels desperate sometimes.

Big love to you, be well and safe and may peace and prosperity see you always.

Kindest Regards,

Brendan

Single Dad & 10-Year-Old Son Facing Homelessness

Hello, my name is Ulli, and I’m a heartbroken single father reaching out with everything I have left. My 10-year-old son and I are staring down the very real threat of homelessness after more than two years of unemployment, and I’m desperately fighting to keep us together and safe.

Every night I watch my little boy try to be strong. He’s only 10, but he’s already learned what it feels like to worry about whether we’ll still have a home next month. When the bills pile up and I have to stretch the last few groceries, the quiet fear in his eyes absolutely shatters me. He deserves to feel safe, to laugh and play like a normal child, and to have a dad who can provide for him, not one constantly battling to keep us off the streets. These past two years have taken so much from us, but I refuse to let this situation steal his future.

That’s why I’ve made a firm decision to keep fighting. Instead of waiting for another rejection letter, I’m determined to start my own small clothing business. I have done research and have made a real plan to begin with affordable, quality every day clothing that people actually want. This business can represents our lifeline, a chance to finally create stable income and rebuild our lives with dignity. But right now, we’re drowning in overdue rent, mounting debts, and basic survival needs. Without immediate help, we won’t even have a roof over our heads to work from.

I’ve already tried all the traditional ways, job applications, applying for business grants, startup loans, and assistance programs, but I keep getting rejections. Time is running out fast for us. My son shouldn’t have to live with this constant fear and uncertainty any more.

The $50,000 I’m humbly asking for would:

  • Clear urgent debts and overdue rent to stop the eviction threat and prevent homelessness.
  • Cover essential living costs so I can focus fully on launching the business.
  • Provide the critical startup funding for inventory, equipment, website/setup, and initial marketing to get the clothing business generating income as quickly as possible.

I’m not asking for charity forever. I’m asking for a compassionate hand up so I can stand on my own two feet again and become the provider my boy needs. Once this clothing business is off the ground, I’ll work tirelessly to support us and, one day, pay it forward to help other struggling families.

If you can donate anything at all, it will mean the world to a father who just wants to protect and provide for his 10-year-old son. If you can’t give right now, please share this story. Every share increases the chance that someone who can help will see it.

From the depths of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read about our painful situation. Your kindness and belief in us could be the turning point that saves my son’s childhood and gives us both a real chance for a better life.

ESRD/Dialysis Warrior Needing Help Please!

Hello, I am a 37 year old single mother of 2. I was born with one kidney and at the age of 28, it failed and I was placed on dialysis for 3-4 days a week for nearly 5 hours. Due to treatments taking up 80% of my time, I am unable to work so I have to try and support my children and myself on a very minimal fixed income. I am asking for help with paying for my medicine and my medical bills. This would help take a huge stress off my children and myself and hopefully with your donations, I’ll have a little bit of extra money from my monthly income to get my children new clothes and shoes. Anything will help and be the biggest blessing not only for me but for my kids too. Thank you and God bless.
