It’s always been difficult for me to ask for help . I will give help easily and enjoy doing so but , I am having to listen to my own advice which is ” Just ask ! ”

I am a 35 year old single moma of my awesome daughter who is now 5. We’ve been fighting together from the day I found out she was in my belly and I do everything in my life ultimately for her to have a life she deserves. Im not perfect, and I take responsibility for any wrong situation I perhaps end up in. Why waste time playing the ol blame game, even if its easy and in my current one it would be. However, I choose to only blame me and learn from my choices and be totally transparent and honest because to me that’s more worthy of respect.

Ok, long story short: Im a homeowner that came into full ownership before expecting to… and if it can go wrong, it’s gone wrong. Right now, my once beautiful house is filled with black mold, structural damage from having poor drainage , and no gutters . I have some pretty major chronic health issues such as Type 1 Diabetes, that prevent me from working but don’t qualify for disability.  I resell things online to barely make ends meet for my sweet daughter. The prices recently qouted to me to be able to have a healthy livable home are near impossible for me. Recently, cavities were found in my lung from mold exposure but what can a girl do really? Im humbly asking for any support to be able to remediate my home — before I’m forced to just have to leave it. Its caused much depression and mental health issues , hence the title that also says Restoring Lives. Because through home restoration , you’ll be also Restoring the lives of my daughter and I . Thank you to anyone that’s made it this far reading this even. Love and Light!

Full disclosure, this pains me to do this. I’ve always taken great pride and comfort in providing for my wife and children. However, like many others, this economic downturn has been a devastating blow to my finances. The cost of living of essentials like food, gas for the car, utilities, and rent increases have been like treading quicksand. It’s been a slow, horrifying descent into the abyss of financial ruin. Every time it seems like I’ll be in good spot financially and able to at least break even for the month, disaster strikes. Now things are piling up faster than the paychecks can cover. My employer has begun to rapidly lose business, and I desperately need to find better paying, more stable employment. This is quite frankly, terrifying, as I’m acutely aware of the possibility I may be in between jobs while the bills continue to pile up. Our car needs work, and I’ve recently developed a medical issue that will require professional help, probably surgery. The rent is behind, and while we haven’t reached eviction notices yet thankfully, the threat looms on the horizon. I don’t have legal or illegal vices I’m wasting money on, I’m just at the point where I have to swallow my pride and say: I need help. I don’t care about myself. All that matters to me is my beautiful, supportive, loving wife and our three incredible children. Whatever it takes to provide for them until I can get to a better financial position is what I’ll do. If that means humbling myself and asking for assistance from a good Samaritan, so be it. Whatever you’re able to afford is immensely appreciated. I pray for peace, blessings and lifelong success for whoever reads this, regardless of your ability to help. Take care.

On June 26, 2026, I lost my job while struggling with an autoimmune disease that severely drains my energy and causes chronic fatigue, pain, and inflammation. I also live with IBS-D and diabetes, making it difficult to work outside the home or in a traditional workplace.

Since losing my income, I have fallen behind on essential bills. I am now facing the frightening possibility of becoming homeless and losing my transportation—the very things I need to remain safe, attend medical appointments, and continue searching for work.

The extreme heat makes my health conditions significantly worse, so the thought of losing stable housing or reliable transportation is terrifying. I am actively searching for a remote position that will allow me to support myself while managing my health, but I need help staying afloat until I can secure one.

My goal is to raise $15,000 to help cover housing, transportation, utilities, food, medical needs, and overdue bills during this difficult transition.

Asking for help is not easy for me. I want to work, regain my stability, and move forward—but right now, I cannot do it alone. Any donation, no matter the amount, would give me more time and security while I search for a remote job. If you are unable to donate, sharing my story would mean just as much.

Thank you for reading, supporting me, and helping me hold on to hope during one of the hardest seasons of my life.  paypal.me/needhelpnow188

I never imagined I would be in a position where I would have to ask for help like this, but life has a way of humbling you. If you’ve ever struggled financially or felt like you were doing everything you could just to stay afloat, then you know how hard it is to ask for help.

The past year has been one of the most difficult years of my life, both emotionally and financially. My family went through an almost separation, and the stress, uncertainty, and financial strain that came with it affected every part of our lives. We fought hard to keep our family together, and while I’m incredibly grateful that we made it through that chapter, rebuilding financially has been much harder than I ever expected.

Like so many families, we found ourselves trying to choose which bills could wait so we could keep food on the table, put gas in the car, and take care of everyday necessities. Unfortunately, our Southern California Edison bill continued to grow until it became something that now feels impossible to overcome.

My current Edison balance is $3,841.05.

I tried to set up another payment arrangement, hoping I could slowly catch up, but because I’ve already used the maximum number of payment arrangements allowed, Edison has informed me that I must first pay $2,430.91 before I can even qualify for another payment plan.

I have until August 14 to come up with that amount.

To be completely honest, I don’t know how I’m going to do it.

This bill has become something that keeps me awake at night. I constantly find myself worrying about the possibility of our electricity being disconnected. Living in California, where summer temperatures regularly climb above 105 degrees, losing power isn’t just an inconvenience, it could become dangerous. The thought of not having air conditioning during the hottest part of the year is terrifying.

I’ve spent countless nights lying awake, running numbers over and over in my head, wondering what else I can sell, what extra work I can pick up, or what bill has to wait next. It’s exhausting carrying that weight every single day.

As difficult as it is to ask, I’m reaching out because I simply can’t do this alone.

For anyone who would like verification, I’m happy to attach a screenshot of my Edison bill, which shows the current balance of $3,841.05 and the requirement to pay $2,430.91 before I’m eligible for another payment arrangement.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Asking for help has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do, but I’m choosing to believe there are kind people who understand that sometimes even the hardest-working families hit a season where they need a hand.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your kindness, your prayers, your encouragement, and any support you’re able to give. It truly means more than words can express.

Hi, my name is Sharonda, and I am a single parent currently going through a difficult financial period. Despite doing my best to provide for my family, I have fallen behind on essential bills, including rent, utilities, groceries, transportation/repairs, and childcare.

I am trying to raise 10,000 to help cover these immediate expenses and bring my household back to a stable place. Any contribution, no matter the amount, would make a meaningful difference for my family. Donations will be used toward the most urgent expenses.

Asking for help is not easy, but I am grateful for any financial support, encouragement, or sharing of this request. Thank you for taking the time to read about our situation and for helping us through this challenging period.

To everyone taking the time to read my story,

I never imagined I would be in a position where I needed to ask strangers for help. After dedicating my career as a first responder, my focus was always on helping others through some of the hardest moments of their lives. I took pride in serving my community and never expected that one day I would be the one reaching out for support.

Retirement has been much more difficult than I anticipated. Rising living expenses, unexpected bills, and financial setbacks have left me struggling to keep up with basic necessities. Like many retired first responders, I live on a fixed income that simply doesn’t stretch as far as it once did.

Asking for help is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I’ve always believed in working hard and standing on my own, but sometimes life has a way of humbling us. Right now, I’m doing everything I can to stay afloat while preserving my independence and dignity.

Any contribution, no matter the amount, would help ease the financial burden and allow me to focus on getting through this difficult chapter. If you’re unable to donate, simply sharing my campaign would mean just as much.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering helping a retired first responder who spent a career helping others. Your kindness, generosity, and compassion mean more than words can express, and I will always be grateful for any support you can provide.

Thank you, and may you and your loved ones stay safe.
