Seeking Support After Losing Job After An Unfortunate Vehicle Therft

I am truly grateful for this opportunity to explain my current situation and the challenges I am facing. I want to convey that I am a hard-working man who has recently lost my job due to circumstances beyond my control. My story begins with the theft of my car, which has had a cascading effect on my life, and now I find myself in a precarious situation where I urgently need to raise anywhere from $3,000 to $4,500 to purchase another car. This is essential for me to get back on my feet and avoid the looming threat of homelessness.

 

Losing my job was a devastating blow, and it happened at a time when I was already facing financial strain. The theft of my car was completely unexpected and left me in a state of shock and despair. My car was not just a means of transportation; it was my lifeline to work, to support myself and my family, and to maintain a sense of stability in my life.

 

In the aftermath of the car theft, I have been struggling to make ends meet. Without reliable transportation, I have been unable to secure employment or even attend job interviews, which has only exacerbated my financial woes. Bills have piled up, and the fear of eviction is looming over me. I am doing everything in my power to avoid becoming homeless and to regain my financial independence.

 

I want to emphasize that I am not seeking sympathy, but rather understanding and assistance to overcome this challenging period in my life. I am a diligent and hard-working individual who has always taken pride in providing for my family and contributing to my community. I am not one to ask for help lightly, but I have exhausted all available options and resources.

 

I am actively seeking new employment opportunities and doing odd jobs whenever possible, but without reliable transportation, my efforts are limited. The funds I am hoping to raise will enable me to purchase a replacement car, which is the first step towards regaining my financial stability and self-sufficiency.

 

I want to thank you for taking the time to read my explanation. Your support, whether through financial assistance or guidance, would mean the world to me. I am committed to working hard, rebuilding my life, and ensuring that I never find myself in such a vulnerable situation again. Your kindness and understanding will help me take the first steps on this journey towards a brighter future.

Disabled mother seeks funding to turn a hobby into a business

Hello,

 

My name is Melissa Cogley and I have been struggling with mental illness for the last 20 years. After getting the covid vaccination I lost feeling in both of my legs. I was diagnosed with neuropathy. There is no cure so I have been learning how to live again.  I am a mother of 2 children and cannot work so I have no way of contributing to my family which is what a mother should be doing. I have not been able to work and I am disabled. Not being able to walk very well has made life hard but I push through everyday. With my disabilities it has made it hard to enjoy life and I became very depressed . I looked to find a hobby so I can stay active. I started making wax melts and soap infused sponges. I decided to sell them on facebook and formed a following. Now I am faced with staying where I am or pushing to grow it. I have a set small income from being disabled and really need money so I can try and make a business out of this to give myself and my family a future.  I have a garage that could renovate and use to house a business. It is old and needs a lot of work. I am glad that the roof does not leak. I am afraid that I might fail but strive to push forward. I will take any donations that will  go directly to building a future for myself. I will use the money to buy supplies that I need to continue to make my product. Material and supplies are so expensive and with the current economy it is hard to get what I need. It is hard on a fixed income every month and feel as I am getting no where fast. Any and all help would greatly be appreciated. I was not fortunate to have kept my mobility but I will look to press on. I look forward to meeting the many nice people out there who are more fortunate than myself who are willing to share what they have to help someone get somewhere in life. Again I appreciate any and all help that is offered. I have attached a link for direct donations below.

I want to create business and I want to create online stores.

Hi I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to share with you a passion that has driven me for some time now. I am committed to creating innovative businesses and online stores that will meet current and future market needs. The world is rapidly moving towards digital, and the opportunities to build successful online businesses have never been greater. I am convinced that I can provide value through unique and relevant products or services. However, as you may know, starting a business requires significant financial resources. This is why I turn to you today. I believe in my idea and my ability to succeed, but I also know that to get these projects off the ground, I will need an initial investment. This money will be used to cover development costs, marketing, inventory, and ensure solid growth from the start. I would like to emphasize that I take this approach very seriously. I have already conducted extensive market research, developed solid business plans and identified promising growth opportunities. I am also willing to work hard and fully commit to completing these projects. If you are interested in supporting a budding business with considerable growth potential, I would be happy to discuss my plans further and find out how we could collaborate. Your financial support and experience could make the difference in the success of these online businesses. I look forward to sharing my vision and seeing how we could collaborate to make these projects a reality. If I can get $80,000 or more to start it will be good. I sincerely thank you for taking the time to read this message and consider my cry for help. Together we could create something truly exceptional. Alfredo St-Laurent

Financial Help for home repair

Hello,

My name is Lionel.  I’m in need of some financial help to repair issues I’m having with my module home.  I got a loan and purchased a 2019 trailer (49k) in August of 2022, with the idea that I could get all the items repaired or updated. Since the home is relatively new, the updating should be low in cost. However, things did not work out with getting employment, along with a few (minor) health issues that ate up my little savings.

The skirting or trimming support around the home is being “eaten” away by water damage.  The wood strips are made of press wood so the wood is crumbling. It needs to be repaired and (re) installed properly.  I would also like to have my deck updated since it will soon need some repair work.  I found someone who will handle all the repairs and rebuild the deck.  He wants about $3800 – $4100 to get everything completed.

So if someone could please help me financially, I would appreciate it greatly!

 

Thank you for your time,

Lionel

 

p.s. If pictures are needed, I can send them. This site would not allow me upload photos.

I Was Evicted & Lost Everything – Please help!

Hi, I am a 26 year old entrepreneur and photographer. I got evicted from my apartment and had just about everything I own thrown out by apartment staff, maintenance, and/or the marshals. For a few months I had been struggling with staying current with rent (sometimes catching back up then soon falling back behind) and had been communicating with my leasing office about my situation while still working to catch up. After working all day, I came home to a changed lock , so I couldn’t get inside and was forced to contact a friend about staying the night to avoid having to sleep in my car for the night. The following day I spoke with my leasing office manager again to communicate that I only needed a few more days before I could bring my account current and was informed that it was too late and I had officially been evicted. When I asked about the status of my personal belongings that were inside my unit, the manager informed me that everything I own had been either dumped in the parking lot or thrown in the dumpster. One of the many issues with that is the fact that when I went to the parking lot to retrieve my things, nothing was out there meaning everything was gone. The manager claimed that I was supposed to be home when the unit was being repossessed, however, I was never given an official notice to vacate with any information on when anyone was coming. This meant I was robbed of the opportunity to maintain possession of all of my belongings and move them into a storage unit. My apartment staff, maintenance, and/or the marshals cleared out my apartment of everything while I was gone for the day working. In addition to furniture like my bed, couch, chairs, and tables which I don’t even care to replace, they also threw out all of my clothing/shoes and expensive things like my TV ($400), MacBook ($1800), all camera equipment ($6000), kitchen appliances ($200), and the $6,000 worth of money orders I had hidden/stashed in my closet for when I made the last bit to bring my rent current. This adds up to over $14,000 worth of loss. With that, they threw away personal belongings of mine with sentimental value that can never be replaced. All I really had left was the clothes on my back, my wallet, and my car. I am devastated having experienced this. I am not sure if I can raise $14,000 as that is alot of money, but I would greatly appreciate any help to lessen the burden of this loss to facilitate me getting back on my feet and starting over from scratch. Thank you so much for reading this far; anything is appreciated!

Overwhelming Lemonade making

I’m not entirely sure where to start here. I have a penchant for TMI, and it often causes more problems than it solves, but here is my story and why I’m here today…

3 years ago I relocated back to America after living in England for 20 years. My first job back was cashier in a retail store I took, so I could save to build my credit from 0, and further get a car. Then I could be an Uber driver. I wanted to be a taxi driver ever since I saw a music video in ’92.

Once I got Sheila E. my Camry, I was ready to hit the road. Started driving with Uber and in 11 months I managed to save $4k, and built my credit to a very good score. I was proud of what I had achieved, and I was happy. And single. The only thing I didn’t have was my own place to live. It was alright sharing, but I wanted my own apartment. I was almost there. Then I fell into a relationship trap with someone who wasn’t at all who I thought. Everything you wouldn’t want from a man; cheating, lying, manipulating, etc. I confronted him, and he didn’t like that.

After leaving I got my own apartment but I wasn’t alone. He was cyber-stalking me, stealing identity, and much more. He was trying to financially and emotionally ruin me. Anyway, I couldn’t drive, and I lost my apartment within 3 months. I had to move back in with my father again. After a few months of heavy drinking, I started getting things together again, and then I met another guy in a local bar. I wasn’t looking for a relationship, but he was persistent and charming. At first anyway. He moved in with us and things were ok.

Then I wanted to move back to the city, because that’s where I could really make money again driving. What I truly love doing. I’ve had plans now for the last 2 years to go to Duke for post grad studies in Health & Wellness Coaching (which I feel is my true calling) but telling toxic family members about it was a mistake. Anyway, I still dream to go there, but that’s not the reason I’m here asking for help.

The guy I decided to move into a new apartment with in May this year, became a completely different person when we moved in. I helped him get a new job in a warehouse, earning more than ever, but he was never truly grateful. He never is. Nothing is enough unfortunately. He had bad spending habits and credit, and I tried explaining that we couldn’t be frivolous with spending, because bills and rent and more important things needed taking care of first. He became extremely controlling and jealous too. Didn’t want me to work as a driver anymore, because I liked it and picked up men. Even though it was strictly professional. He’d bought a car from my father, but didn’t want to drive it, because it was too slow, and he couldn’t drive on the busy highways. He said. So we shared my car. After 4 months of depression with me staying at home with our puppy, the penny dropped. And here we are. Here I AM anyway. Almost 2 months behind in rent. My credit card is maxed out (which I never had before,) all because I just had to give in to his whims and demands to keep some sort of peace. Emotionally beaten down.

Then all of the sudden a few weeks ago, I NEED TO WORK he told me. He can’t do it all on his own, and more types of verbal and emotional abuse. So I have been trying to get back to work, but almost every time I come home, there’s drama. He had my things packed at the front door once, or just makes me feel miserable to ruin the fact I enjoyed my shift. I have pawned things to come up with some money. He refuses to pawn things he owns.

I don’t want to be with him anymore, but we both signed the lease. And the only downfall of self employment is lack of healthcare. (I’m relying on his benefits as well, seeing the doctor I love, and saw when I was with the last headache.) He said I could take my name off the lease when we pay rent, but I know if I do, he’ll start saying it’s his apartment and I need to move out. I like where we live. Especially the location. It’s perfect for my work, being so close to the airport.

He’s extremely manipulative. Always playing games, and furthermore, I found out he’s also cheated. He has hidden dating apps on his phone. I have reason to believe he’s installed spyware in my phone as well. To keep tabs on me. Same thing the guy I saw before did. So, I am in a public library writing this to keep my privacy.

I don’t know what to do. I thought about going back to England, because I’m somewhat homesick, but I can’t leave my puppy behind. He’s a pitbull, and he’s not allowed entry there, and here, he’d be abused. I also have an adopted cat I love, too.

So, the only thing I can hope to ask for is enough money to catch up on my rent. Perhaps enough to help me get back on my feet again. To set aside, so I actually CAN leave in the near future and head southwest. Start a new life in another state. I have dreams and goals of getting so far in life with a career, though I feel I need trauma healing therapy, and abilities to create to create stronger boundaries to get there.

Thank you for reading my plea. And if you made it this far, thank you again for taking the time to. Genuinely appreciative. Have a blessed day.

Tragic Car Accident Has Led to Unemployment

Greetings!

I was a full-time rideshare driver. That is how I made a living to provide for me and my child. Unfortunately, I was in a tragic car accident on 8/4/2023. A driver failed to yield at a stop sign and crossed an intersection that I had the right way and my car was totaled. I didn’t have a stop sign or a stop light which is why I had the right of way. Even though I tried to yield when they came darting across the intersection it was too late. They were found at fault. Yes, they had insurance and yes I settled with their insurance however my credit is in terrible shape and I have not been able to get approved for a loan for a new car. The sad unfortunate part is my car was almost paid off and I had plans to take my money and put that towards repairing my credit. I only had $1700 left on my loan and planned on doubling up on payments so I could pay it off. My credit took a huge hit during COVID and it’s better than it was 3 years ago but still needs work. I don’t know what else to do. I haven’t worked since the accident. I have paid my bills through the end of September. I have been looking for work in hopes that I could at minimum take public transportation to a job. I was okay with doing that because I’ve done it in the past. Plus it would save me some money. Being a rideshare driver is expensive when you tally up all your expenses. So I would have been able to save quite a bit of money to repair my credit and a good down payment for a new vehicle in the future. I have applied to so many places based on my experience in corporate America. There is a rideshare program to rent a vehicle through Uber and that costs $300 a week which is my last resort. I’d rather not go that route but I will if I have to. In my area, there is a waiting list that I am on. I am simply asking for help with getting a vehicle. I think a bigger down payment would assist me in this car-buying process because of my credit. Any help would be gladly appreciated.

Requesting $20,000 to build a mobile flameworking studio to teach and blow glass

Well hello there!

I am a glassblower/flameworker and have been working with glass for the last few years. In that time, I have developed a reputation for having standout glass character designs and speedy turnaround for wholesale and retail orders. Previously, I worked out of my home studio but I have since moved out of state for my husband’s work. Because we are now renting, I cannot have a studio and there are no renters where I live willing to let me set up shop.

This is where you’re amazing generosity may come in. I am raising funds to build a mobile glassblowing/flameworking studio. This studio will not only house all of the equipment necessary to make glass sculptures, but also will house a small gallery to show allow potential clients to view, in real time, what their finished products will look like. There will be at least 3 workstations, so that I can teach classes while traveling and at shows. Essentially, this studio will be used to travel to different locations and schools to not only make and sell glassworks, but also to teach those that wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity.

At this time, I am only asking for $20,000 that will be used to build the studio, buy torches and kilns for the workstations.

Please help me reach my goal and thank you so much for even considering it and reading my plea. I hope you have a wonderfully, generous day!

Embracing the Challenge: Starting a Local Computer Support Business

Hey everyone! 👋 I wanted to share a bit about my journey into entrepreneurship and the challenges I’m facing while trying to kickstart a computer support business aimed at helping our local businesses in need of reliable IT support. 🖥️💼

The Vision: I’ve always had a passion for technology, and I believe that every local business should have access to affordable and dependable IT services. Our community is teeming with small businesses, but many of them struggle with their computer systems and networks due to budget constraints.

The Hurdles: One of the most significant challenges on this journey is securing the funding needed to turn this vision into a reality. Launching a business comes with upfront costs that can be quite daunting, including registering the business, setting up a professional online presence, and acquiring the essential software and hardware.

Investing in Knowledge: Staying on top of the ever-evolving tech landscape is crucial. I’ve been investing in my skills and knowledge to provide top-notch IT support to our local businesses, which means training and certifications—another cost to factor in.

Connecting with Clients: Building a client base is a gradual process. I’ve been attending local business events, joining associations, and even cold-calling potential clients. However, making these connections takes time, and sometimes, a financial investment is needed to speed up the process.

Cash Flow Concerns: Managing cash flow can be a real tightrope walk, especially in the early stages. There are operating expenses like utilities, transportation, and insurance that need to be covered even before substantial income starts flowing in from clients.

Scaling Up: Looking ahead, I’m excited about the potential to grow the business. But that too requires funding—whether it’s hiring additional staff, expanding our services, or investing in advanced IT tools to meet the evolving needs of our clients.

The Way Forward: While the journey has its share of challenges, I’m not giving up. I’m exploring various funding options, from personal savings to business loans and even grants. My determination to provide local businesses with reliable IT support keeps me going, and I believe that with the right strategy and community support, we can make this vision a reality.

Donations to a small business like mine are very much appreciated. Your support mean the world to me as I work towards bringing affordable and dependable IT solutions to our local businesses!

Need helping paying off debts

Hey, I’m working towards paying off debts but it’s been challenging. First I want to thank you all in advance for helping me. I really appreciate you all.

I have several loans and a credit card that I used to pay for school, books for classes, bills, food, etc during the pandemic 2020 when I was laid off because of the Covid shutdown.

Since then I’ve worked several jobs at a time to pay back these loans and credit card but life happen. I really want and pray to financially free of debt and to be able to breathe and enjoy life. Without worry of debts.

Thank you for taking out the time to read my story.

LAST HOPE

I’m a young woman who has worked all her life. This is no sob story and im not looking for sympathy but empathy. I won’t make this statement long and this is quite embarrassing for me to admit but i need help.

I lost everything after the passing of my parents during covid. I lost my Job and our home since i couldn’t keep up with the payments. i had just finished university and been actively looking for employment but to no avail.

it’s been really hard getting back on my feet. my parent’s funeral bills are £20,000. I also have a health condition that requires £2,000 every month for treatment. Im an only child, and there’s no one to help me. My parents family don’t want to help and have become oblivious to this whole ordeal. I have requested for a payment plan and been asked to pay for my parent’s bodies to be stored until payment is made so I took out a loan of £5,000 for this. I’ve been working odd shifts here and there but not enough to even make a dent and merely surviving. I’ve also been sofa surfing from friends.

I have tried charities and been left on a waiting list for over 2 years. I am really struggling to keep afloat, my health is deteriorating and have suicidal thoughts every day but i can’t allow myself to give up. I’ve sold everything i owned, including my car to meet these payments.

As i write this, im very upset and at wits end. i don’t want to be a burden to anyone and if you’ve come this far in my story, i am truly moved and would appreciate your help. I need a total of £40,000 but any amount would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you so much

Emergency Need of Money

Hello,

My name is Sophie Swan. I am a Greek 30-year-old woman. Since I was a teenager, I have been struggling with depression, and at the same time, I had to study at the University of Physics and work as a waitress. It took me several years to finish the university because I was always poor and the employees in Greece paid so little, such as 30 euros for 10 hours of work. I am about to graduate now, and I am going to study at the University of Psychology. I succeeded in overcoming my depression, and I have a vision: to help others do the same! If someday I become rich, I would like to make donations to those who suffer from hunger, poverty, illnesses, and mental issues! This is my purpose in life. I believe in Jesus and in all people with pure hearts full of love and light! And you are one of them! I am trying this period of my life so hard! I am struggling with financial issues, like my rent and other bills, because I lost my job recently. Please help me to do something better in my life! I don’t want more than 3000-5000 euros to overcome this situation and continue my dreams! I promise to refund you back as soon as possible! That’s a promise And if you can’t help me, that is okay too! Thank you so much for your time! God bless you all!

My best regards, Sophie Swan
