Help us keep our home – the last glimmer of hope

Hi,

I am a 61-year-old mother from the outskirts of Oulu. I live alone with my beloved daughter in a home that we built together to protect our lives. A house is more than a home to us – it is our safe haven, a cradle of memories and the only permanent thing in our lives.

In 2015, I dared to dream of something better. I had been at the same job for 21 years and believed that I would get through my mortgage before retirement. But no one can predict life.

Everything started to fall apart in the summer of 2023. I had to retire on partial disability pension due to back and hand problems. In October, a prosthesis was installed in my right hand, but the recovery failed. I have been on sick leave since then – for over two years – and surgeries on both hands and back are still ahead.

The final blow came in October 2024, when 30 years of work ended with a layoff. My income plummeted. And then – as if fate had struck again – I was scammed online in the summer of 2024. Loans were taken out in my name, everything was taken out of my account. I got nothing back.

Now I have accumulated a debt of 230,000 euros. I haven’t been able to pay off my mortgage for six months. After July, our house will go into foreclosure. Then there will be a forced auction.

Our house is everything to us. It’s the last thing we have left.

I haven’t been able to pay my credit card debts, the bills are in collection. I don’t know how I’m going to pay the upcoming cuts. I don’t know how we’ll even make it through next month.

I need 50,000 euros now – that would be enough to pay off my outstanding loans, save our house and give us time to breathe.

I am writing this message with tears in my eyes and a broken heart. I have never in my life had to ask for help like this – but now I have to.

If you can help – even a small amount – you will give us the opportunity to continue our lives. You will not only save the house, but the future of a mother and daughter.

Forever grateful ♥️🙏🏼♥️

Breast Cancer Survivor in Need of Dental Implants after Chemotherapy

My name is Kristen Webb, and I’m writing to ask for your help. I am a five-year breast cancer survivor living in Sonoma County, California. While I am deeply grateful to be alive today, the lasting effects of chemotherapy have taken a painful and visible toll on my health—particularly on my teeth and jaw.

In April 2019, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. I underwent 8 rounds of chemotherapy (including four rounds of Adriamycin—also known as “the red devil”), 30 rounds of radiation, a lumpectomy, and the removal of 12 lymph nodes. The treatment saved my life, but it also severely damaged my bones, nails, and teeth.

By 2020, shortly after finishing treatment, my teeth began breaking off—one by one. It started in the back, so I could hide it for a while. But in 2022, I chipped a front tooth on a cough drop. Since then, I’ve been using over-the-counter plastic repair material just to feel comfortable smiling in public.

Today, I have only four teeth left. I suffer daily pain from the broken ones, and my jawbone is rapidly deteriorating due to osteoporosis and osteopenia—both results of my treatment. I also received a post-treatment bone infusion (Zometa) meant to strengthen bones, but one of its serious side effects is jawbone collapse. This has further complicated my ability to get timely dental care.

I recently had X-rays done and was told that my bone loss is so advanced that if I don’t act soon, I may no longer be a candidate for permanent implants. The best and most realistic option for me now is a procedure called “All-on-4,” which uses four implants to anchor a full set of permanent, natural-looking teeth—restoring both function and dignity. Unfortunately, the cost is $41,000.

As a full-time live-in caregiver for a 38-year-old developmentally disabled man with severe autism and epilepsy, I earn about $2,200 a month. While I live simply and work hard, this kind of dental care is far beyond my financial reach. I don’t have bad credit—but I also don’t have much credit, as I was unable to work during my long recovery period.

I’m humbly asking for your help. This dental restoration would not only relieve my constant physical pain, but also allow me to eat, speak, and smile with confidence again. Most importantly, it would restore my quality of life after fighting so hard to stay alive.

I can share photos of myself before and after chemotherapy, along with a recent X-ray showing the severity of the bone loss. And any nessarary proof of cancer treatment.

If you find it in your heart to help me—whether through funding, referrals, or sponsorship—I would be forever grateful.

Thank you so much for your time and compassion.

With sincere gratitude,
Kristen Webb🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

“Invest in My Future: Please Help Fund My Trading Education”

Hello to all who reads this.

I received my confirmation email stating that I will be amongst the first to receive a application. I am asking for help with $1200 to cover a tuition fee to learn how to be a successful trader. The trading university is called The TradeIT Residency, and it’s due to launch this month. This will be the first university style system designed for traders.

This program is designed to provide in-depth, hands-on education in trading strategies, risk management, and market psychology—key elements I need to become a disciplined, consistent trader. It offers direct mentorship, live training sessions, and structured learning paths, all of which are crucial for someone like me who is serious about mastering this skill not just for short-term gain, but for long-term financial growth.

I’m pursuing this opportunity because I see trading as a valuable tool to increase my income, create flexibility, and eventually build generational wealth. I’ve already taken steps toward learning by dedicating time to self-study, paper trading, and consuming free online resources. However, I’ve reached a point where I need a more formal, expert-led structure to truly advance and avoid costly mistakes that come from trial and error.

This $1200 investment in my education would allow me to focus on learning from proven professionals, participate in a supportive community of traders, and gain access to real-world simulations that mimic actual market conditions. I believe this will significantly accelerate my learning curve and give me the confidence to eventually trade live with real capital in a responsible, strategic way.

My commitment is strong I’ve already carved out regular weekly study hours, and I plan to stay consistent with this schedule throughout the duration of the residency. I’m not only focused on learning how to make money but also on building the right habits and mindset that trading demands: patience, emotional discipline, and long-term thinking. This university is in it for the long haul. I will also build long lasting supportive relationships in my pursuit.

Receiving this tuition support would remove the financial barrier that’s currently holding me back from enrolling. It would be a game-changer in helping me take the next step in my personal and financial development. I’m deeply grateful for your consideration, and I’m confident that the knowledge and discipline I gain from this program will position me to give back in the future by helping others learn, succeed, and pursue their goals just as I am pursuing mine.

Trying to get on my feet after terrible mistakes

Hello,

My name is Beatrice. I’m a 23-year-old student, and I’m writing this message from one of the most vulnerable places I’ve ever been in my life. I never imagined I would be in a situation like this—ashamed, scared, and desperate—but I’m reaching out with honesty and hope that someone might listen and care.

 

A few months ago, I lost my job, and everything started to fall apart from there. Rent, bills, food—everyday necessities suddenly became overwhelming. Out of desperation, I started borrowing money from fast-credit websites, not fully understanding the consequences. The interest rates were extremely high, but I was too anxious and ashamed to tell anyone. I kept hoping things would get better, that I’d find work soon, and I’d manage to pay everything back.

 

That didn’t happen. The debt kept growing, and now I find myself stuck in a terrifying cycle. I owe money to multiple sketchy online lenders, and the pressure, the phone calls, the threats—it’s all too much. I’m constantly anxious and afraid for my future. I fear I’ve made mistakes that I’ll carry with me forever, and I can’t stop blaming myself for the choices I made out of panic and isolation.

 

I’m not asking for pity—just a chance to make things right. I want to pay off these debts, close this awful chapter, and rebuild my life with more responsibility and stability. I’ve learned a painful lesson, and all I want now is to start fresh, to get back on my feet, and eventually help others like me who’ve felt this kind of despair.

 

I also have a cat named Marcy. She’s my little family, my comfort, and my reason to keep going. But I’m so scared that if things get worse, I won’t be able to take care of her anymore. The thought of that breaks my heart more than anything.

 

If you are able and willing to help, even a little, it would mean the world to me. Not just as money, but as a lifeline—proof that it’s possible to recover from mistakes and find kindness in a dark place. I know I’m probably asking for too much, but 4000 – 5000$ will be enough to help through these hard times.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Whatever you decide, I’m grateful just for your attention and understanding.

 

With hope,

**Beatrice**

Please Help Save Our Family Home

Hello,

We are a family of four living in a home we purchased around 20 years ago with a mortgage in Swiss francs. At the time, it seemed like a smart financial decision. None of us could have predicted how things would unfold. After the dramatic appreciation of the Swiss franc and the financial hardships that followed in our country, Greece, our debt increased instead of decreasing, even though we’ve been paying our installments consistently all these years. Today, after two decades, our debt has barely moved. This ongoing pressure has begun to take a serious toll on our mental health. We have already extended the loan term in hopes of gaining time, but the months go by and the anxiety only grows stronger. We are not the type of people who ask for help easily, but we are running out of options. All of us work, but our expenses are heavy. We are doing everything in our power to keep up, but the risk of losing our home looms over us like a dark cloud. The fear of losing it is overwhelming. If we can raise even the first €5,000 to ease the burden of our loan payments, it would give us a breath of relief. If anyone can support us, no matter how small the donation, it would make a world of difference for us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for reading our story. 🙏

Seeking Urgent Help with July Rent

Hello,

I never imagined I’d be here asking for help, but I’m facing a situation that has left me with no other option. My rent of $2,750 was due on July 1st and I have until the 5th before late fees and eviction notices start. I’ve already exhausted every resource I had just to move into this home, which I worked so hard for. Unfortunately, I lost my job unexpectedly, and despite doing everything I can to get back on my feet, I’m now at risk of losing the roof over my family’s head.

I’m a single mom doing everything possible to stay afloat. I’ve reached out to local churches, organizations, and friends, but I’ve come up short. Every dollar I had went toward making this home a safe place for my children, and now I’m left scrambling, praying for a miracle.

I’m not asking for a handout—I’m asking for a chance to catch up and get back on track. I’ve already been applying for jobs daily and working on ways to stabilize my income again. I just need help making it through this moment.

If you find it in your heart to donate, whether it’s $5, $50, or anything you can spare, you’ll be directly helping keep my family in our home. Every little bit truly makes a difference right now.

Thank you for reading my story and for any help you can offer—whether through a donation or even just sharing this page.

I am 63 with two children. 18 and 13 son and daugther. 2021 was a particularly stressful. Covid and starting a new carreear as a Chef and dealing with the mother that has mental illness. I had to get a restraining order against her. I packed up the kids and we stayed where ever we could. I also drove to make ends meet. I have used up most of any assistance that was available for our situation. The goal was to take a job seasonal to save up enough to move because my funding ran out on the place were at now. It was a 2 year program and after 18 months we are having to leave at the end of August. Moreover I have COPD and am know longer cooking. I have one skill left I can apply to maintain storage unit food and transportation. I have always provided for my children and am humbled even doing this. I will have $2000 dollars at Augusts end. My son is currently looking for full time employment and I am working on some short term goals on some kind of delivery services I can provide as long as my vehical holds out. I would like to be more informative though I believe I covered the major points. Homeless in under two months. A son that can work along with my income we will never give up or give in.

Please Help Me Save My Business – I’m at a Breaking Point

 

Hi I’m reaching out with all the humility in my heart to ask for help.

I started my business, with love and passion. I’ve poured everything I have into this vision time, money, energy, and faith. But right now, I’m struggling to keep it alive. The truth is, I’ve hit a point where I either receive a financial miracle or I risk losing everything I’ve worked so hard for.

It’s not easy to ask for help especially publicly  but I’m in a place where I truly need it. I’m fighting every day to stay afloat, to serve my clients, to grow, and to keep this dream from slipping away. I believe in what I do, and I know that with just a little help, I can get through this chapter and come back stronger.

If you’re reading this, I’m asking from the bottom of my heart — please consider donating. Whether it’s $5, $20, or anything you can spare, it will go directly to supporting my business and helping me stay open, rebuild, and continue providing services to my community.

If you can’t donate, a prayer or a share would mean the world.

Thank you for your time, your kindness, and for believing in small businesses like mine.

With gratitude,

Coming from abuse, would love a helping hand.

I’m a year out of a 16 yr long abusive relationship with the father of my four young children ages 13, 8, 6, and 4. As of now his help is conditional. I live in a low income apartment  2 bedrooms 1 bathroom in Lancaster, CA  as we have for 13 years where he used to reside with us. The apartment is in my name and he has never been on the lease.

Due to the type and length of the abuse, my head is a mess. I am working on getting work from home so I do not have to leave my children with strangers or depend on him ever again.  I’ve had no luck.  I lack education so this is difficult. I’m a songwriter…my only payable talent. But I do not do anything with this. Four children and their fathers ongoing abuse is just too much for me and I cannot seem to get my head above water.

I  want a house for my children and I. But this just seems mission impossible. I feel all alone…tearing up writing this. All I can ask for is any kind of help. My only income since I kicked him out a year ago is welfare that I want to get off of permanently. That’s 14,000 a month, on the months when he doesn’t apply for a welfare case of his own by lying/claiming the children live with him, When they have always been with me full time. This is now under investigation.

Money would of course help me a great deal. But an at home job, preferably something I do not have to make calls for or that you do not need experience for would be everything that’s anything…in other words, amazing for my children and I. I only have basic computer skills, maybe less than that. If nothing at all comes from this, it felt good to at least get this off my chest.

I am sending nothing but positive energy and vibrations. Thank you for reading. Please send  prayers if nothing at all.

I’m going blind and I’m only 40

I never in my life have asked for a dime from anyone I pride myself in being very independent but right now it’s imperative that I swallow my pride and ask for help. I’m 40 years old with 2 children and I’m about to go blind if I don’t have an eye transplant in both eyes and my time is limited. Here’s my situation, growing up I had a horrible life I got kicked out at 15 and from than on my life just got worse, I’ve been in alot of bad situations that I couldn’t control, my life had no meaning I was homeless and hungry alot so at the age of 18 I decided to become a stripper and all hell broke loose. I decided to try cocaine so I don’t feel the shame of getting naked in front of people and with my good luck I have in life I encountered a bad trip that made me rip out the skin out of my eyes this went on for 13 years I just couldn’t stop in those 13 years I’ve had 2 children that aren’t with me anymore because I screwed up bad. I regret it everyday of my life, but regret doesn’t get back what I lost including my eye sight. I’ve been sober and surviving barely in life for 6 years now but it’s too late for my eyes, if I don’t get an emergency eye transplant in both eyes I will go blind. I know I did this to myself I wish I could change things but I can’t, for the past 16 years when I first birth to my daughter than my son 4 years later all I’ve been waiting for is for them to turn 18 so I can finally see them and explain what happened but my vision is so bad without this transplant I will not be able to see how great my children look and how good they are doing. I’ve never asked for anything but I really am dying to see my children and the sunrise and the sunset,  but I can’t afford it, to be honest I can barely afford to eat but I’d rather starve so I can see. I’m begging someone anyone please help me out I prey to God every night for strength and help now I’m asking for your help so I don’t go blind, if I go blind my life will have no meaning. The transplant cost is $27000 per eye if it’s not a complicated procedure my eyes are so bad that if I were to get lazer eye surgery I would go blind it’s that delicate. All together I would need at least $75000 for the procedure and than the medications and hospital stay. I have no coverage for anything so I’m completely useless. Someone please find it in your heart to let me keep my vision. My PayPal account is renatasvab@gmail.com. I’m begging you please help me please. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story.

Struggling to Stay Afloat for My Kids – Hoping for a Chance at Stability

Life has been very difficult financially. I work hard, but my wage is low, and it’s not nearly enough to cover the basic needs of a family with three children. Every month, I fall short. I don’t even make it paycheck to paycheck — there’s always something missing, and the stress keeps piling up.

My kids need school supplies, proper clothes, and the basic things every child deserves. I try to provide as best I can, but it’s heartbreaking when I have to say “no” to things they truly need.

We currently live in a apartment that we’ve called home for a while now. It’s not perfect, but it’s where we’ve made our memories. Recently, I’ve been given a rare opportunity — I have the chance to buy this apartment for about $40,000. Owning it would mean stability, security, and finally a step out of the constant fear of losing what little we have.

I don’t usually ask for help, but right now, I’m trying to do what’s best for my kids and their future. If there’s any way to get support to make this dream of owning our home a reality, it would change everything for us.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story.I know lots of people have the same problems nowadays but I would be very thankful for any amount towards my kids or the apartment.

MIRACLE FOR BRIAN

We write to you today on behalf of a truly remarkable man—Brian. A devoted fiancée, father, veteran, volunteer, and pillar of his community, Brian has spent his life helping others without hesitation. Now, in his time of greatest need, we are asking for your help to support.

Brian’s life has been one of selfless service. He worked tirelessly, 60 to 70 hours a week—and still found time to volunteer at his church, assisting in the meal kitchen and serving on both the finance committee (for 12 years) and vestry (for 3 years). A proud Navy veteran, he served 4 years on active duty and 2 years in the reserves. He also supported his family back home for over 20 years, sending money to care for his mother and siblings—all while raising his daughter alone. Today, his daughter is a schoolteacher, a testament to Brian’s love and dedication.

Despite a lifetime of hard work and responsibility, Brian now faces enormous financial and medical challenges. Diagnosed with Stage 4 Non-Hodgkin’s Mantle b Cell Lymphoma. He underwent a stem cell transplant and required intensive chemotherapy for 2 1/2 years. His immune system is dangerously compromised due to neutropenia; A normal person’s neutropenia levels count is about 20,000. Brian’s neutropenia count is about 1.5 He is also managing diabetes. The financial strain is overwhelming—medical bills, insurance, daily living expenses, and the rising cost of essentials leave him with nothing and still in debt.If anyone is interested in helping we will provide all finacial verification!

At 68, Brian has only been able to work for one week this year. He is still awaiting long-overdue assistance from the VA.  Holidays are especially painful, as he is unable to provide gifts or even basic comfort for his eight beloved grandchildren, who bring him so much joy. Brian is a grandfather, father, brother & friend to many.

We are launching a campaign to raise $100,000 to help Brian cover his medical treatments, household expenses, and long-standing debts. Currently select bills are 5 months behind. Your support—no matter the amount—can make a profound difference. Every dollar helps relieve the crushing burden of stress, which his doctors warn is especially dangerous to his condition.

Brian has always given to others. Now, it is our turn to give back. Please consider being part of this miracle.

With deepest gratitude,

Brian Pontius    (16037171461)

Dear [Recipient’s Name],

I am writing to share my heart-wrenching story, one that has been marked by loss, pain, and struggle. Over the past couple of years, I have faced unimaginable challenges that have tested my resilience and will to survive.

It all began with my mother’s illness. She fought bravely againstsickness, but despite her strength, we could not afford the medical treatments she needed to recover. The burden of financial strain weighed heavily on our family, and eventually, we lost her. Her passing left a void that can never be filled, and the grief became a constant companion in my life.

A year later, tragedy struck again when my father fell ill. We were still reeling from my mother’s death, and the financial situation had not improved. Despite our best efforts, we were unable to raise the necessary funds—100,000 naira—to provide him with the medical care he desperately needed. Just months later, he too succumbed to his illness. Losing both parents in such a short time has been a heavy cross to bear, leaving me and my siblings to navigate this world without their guidance and support.

As if these losses were not enough, I recently found myself in a life-threatening situation. I was attacked and stabbed in the neck, a traumatic experience that nearly cost me my life. I lost a significant amount of blood and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. While I survived, the aftermath has been devastating. The area where I was injured is now swelling again, and my doctors have advised that I need surgery to prevent further complications.

However, my financial situation has not improved. I am unable to afford the surgery, and the burden of providing for my siblings is overwhelming. We struggle daily to find food and basic necessities, often going to bed hungry. The weight of my injuries, coupled with the responsibility of caring for my siblings, feels insurmountable.

In sharing my story, I hope to shed light on the struggles that many face in silence. It is not just a tale of loss, but a call for help and understanding. I yearn for a way to heal—not just physically, but emotionally and financially as well.

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I hope it resonates and brings awareness to the plight of those who find themselves in similar situations.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]

Fearful, Struggling, and Out of Options

Hi there,

We’re a young family of three — just 24 and 25 — and recently welcomed our beautiful baby into the world. What should be the happiest time of our lives has instead become the most terrifying. We’re doing everything we can to provide for our child, but truthfully… we’re scared we won’t be able to give him what he needs.

Not long ago, we put everything we had into a business venture, hoping to build a better future. But when the manufacturers overseas backed out, we were left with nothing but crushing debt — debt we never imagined we’d face at this age.

Now, every month, with one income, is a struggle. Between payments, medical bills, and our mortgage, we are barely holding on. We’re doing our best — working, cutting costs, staying strong — but it feels like the walls are closing in. We live in constant fear of losing everything.

It breaks our hearts to ask for help, but we’re at a point where we don’t know what else to do. If you can give — anything — or even just share our story, it would mean the world. Your kindness could give us a lifeline, a little breathing room, and the chance to keep our family safe and together.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for reading and caring.
