Begging Money

Financial Hardship Help

Last Updated:

Long read but please do

Hello, I’d like to start this by saying I’ve never wanted to spend more on my credit than I needed. However I was manipulating the due dates to stretch money here and there. I’ve been on my own since 17 and just now have opened credit so that I could qualify for an apartment. I used to get approved easily with no credit because places were willing to take the bigger deposit. Now that’s not the case. I was couch surfing for a couple months, so grateful for the people that helped in those times. And I made sure to do right by them. At the time i was working as a miner so the money was good but my mental not so much. My schedule would switch for 6 day weeks and 7 days weekly. 12 hour shifts. I honestly felt it was nice job. I liked being physical, I like being able to buy groceries and gas for those I was staying with while also doing the same for myself. But I could not continue to work there when the work is made for a 6 man crew and I was the only one there for 4 months. Training people just to leave. With all that I’d still say I liked that job over any other I had. I felt like it was more fulfilling. I do not support consumerism. It’s truly disheartening seeing how we in America are looked at as just people to squeeze money out of. I’ve felt this way from a very young age coming from a poor family. I lived in; not a full tool shed. Half of a tool shed up until I was 7 and in that time I almost lost my life. Sleeping on the floor in my sleeping bag at the age of 5. I was stung by a scorpion on the neck. Foaming at the mouth and convulsing I just remember my mom screaming carrying me out trying to find a phone to call the ambulance and then waking up realizing I missed a couple days of my life as opposed to all of them. It really made me conscious. So never having money and seeing distressed clothing going for hundreds of dollars while 2 thousand pieces of clothing are thrown out per second in the u.s.  I say this to further cement the dread of my next job. Amazon. This is the birth of fast everything. Which leads to the normalization of buying things. But it doesn’t stop there. This company has built itself to the point where it can buy the manufacturing or licensing of the product their supposed to only deliver. Why? Many reasons but let’s say they see a product doing well. Well they do the research as to why. And in that research they find out they’re only doing good on Amazon. Nobody is making the effort to buy them in person. Well that must mean they’re losing money on being able to hold their stock at Walmart. So let’s employ people to but it off the shelf when it goes on discount then sell it for more. I really could go on but I’m here begin for money so please allow to go back. I reluctantly became an Amazon delivery driver with it being the highest paying intro job at the time and then promising 40 hour work weeks and overtime possible which I’ve become accustomed to. Well after 2 peak seasons I had only gotten 10 hours of overtime. Then barely got 36 hours regularly if I even got to work my full week. At a restaurant there are a set number of employees so on a given shift if someone calls out it can be a struggle finding someone to cover. A unfortunate issue but Amazon has a solution. Have 16 extra people show up to work as if they would be working and if someone doesn’t show up then they can work. Other than that they don’t have a route and we knew this before you left your house. Wasting time and gas to not work is horrible. No compensation and no assurance that it won’t happen again. But this is a normal practice for Amazon. But now I do not have the honor to even be put as an “extra” because I was let go in response to even less routes. Why is there less routes? Because our warehouse doesn’t have enough employees to fulfill orders in time. Sometimes having to pick up packages at other warehouses. But before being let go I was asked by a friend for some financial help. And thinking I was going to still be getting paid this month I have him 1200 dollars making sure he gave me his word I would get it back from him within 2 weeks because he assured he would. He did not. My friend is recently have had cancerous growths being found in his foot and have had cancer battles in his past and successful surgeries on his back. Well with being out 1200 I wasn’t able to continue my credit stretching and had to even ask for my money myself from an ex to pay for my rent. And I wasn’t aware it was also her credit so I’m fine with the interest on my credit but definitely not hers. I could not do that to her. So I’m selling things trying to scrounge up enough. I need 700 more for her credit and now a lot more on mine. I’ve been trying to get myself to a point where I can be my own boss and it looked close but not it’s starting to feel so far. I want to make healthy food for my community who stuggles on a nationally recognized level of diabetes. I want to upscale thirties clothes for the children in my community whos parents can’t afford new clothes like how mine couldn’t. For the kids who want to dress how they want I wanted. I want to educate my community of practices of the companies they probably wouldn’t support if they knew. I do not want this to grow into something I can’t handle. I knew I should have stayed away from this credit stuff. I’m totally fine and used to being broke. Completely broke and starving that is nothing new to me. But I do not want to owe and stay in debt. 5k would be amazing to squash my expenses and have enough to pay for ingredients or supplies I can use to sell and make more until I get another job but to me thinking people would give such an amount is unbelievable. So I beg if you’re that person, please help me.

My Last Resort

My name is Teresa. I’m 56 years old and have been through so much pain and suffering that I’m honestly surprised I’m still alive. I was married to a man for 20 years that started off being a good husband, father, and provider, but he let alcohol take over his life and one day decided he didn’t want to work anymore and started receiving disability. He became someone I didn’t know. Verbal abuse and physical abuse to me and my children until one day he had a massive stroke. After caring for him for over a year that’s all I could take of the abuse so I divorced him. I have been working for almost 4 years in management at a grocery store and ended up having to give up my job to care for him after the stroke. After divorce I went back to work in a different field. I struggled everyday trying to work pay all the bills by myself and take care of two teenagers. It was very hard trying to make ends meet. I’m at another man and started dating him. Early on in the relationship between the alcoholism and the physical abuse I ended up losing my job because I couldn’t make it to work with the black eyes and the busted lips and bruises. I couldn’t afford where I was living not to mention the bad memories from the marriage that I just got out of. So I ended up selling the place I was living and moving away for a few years. Sometimes there was good times but most of time everyday was a fight or an argument. I did try to go back to work even with my mindset of either being beaten, staying up all night because I could not sleep with the fighting and the arguing constantly. Then one night in the middle of the regular arguments, he grabbed me by my throat and choked me till I was almost unconscious, then he picked me up by my throat and slammed my body on top of a wooden coffee table almost breaking my back. I ended up going to the emergency room a few weeks later from some other complications that I thought was my digestive system or something. But turns out I had a blow to my kidney when I went through that coffee table, and after test and scans we’re ran on my organs a tumor was found in my right kidney. It was renal cell carcinoma a very rapid spreading type of cancer. It took me 6 months to be able to come up with the money to get an MRI, only to find out that there really wasn’t any treatment options, so I opted to have the entire kidney removed. After surgery a scan was done and a second tumor was found in my left kidney. That was in 2019. I had my surgery in 2020, and since July of 2020 I have been out of work, the first year was a healing process from the surgery. But after that is when I started getting accused of mooching and free loading off of the man that told me not to go back to work until I got my health right.I eventually broke up with him  and I was left alone with no income no transportation no way to get to work pay my bills, I had nothing but an old mobile home that didn’t belong to me that I was supposed to be renting but I never could afford to pay the rent because I could not get a job and hadn’t no income whatsoever. But I struggled and strived the best way I knew how, asking for churches to help me with my bills, food pantries so I have enough food to to last through the month because my youngest son was still living at home. He tried his best to help me when he could. He was doing all that he could to try to help me but he was in the same boat with no transportation and that made it hard because where we live there’s nothing around us for miles except a little convenience store, a tire shop, a Dollar general that had just opened and that was about it. But in August of 2023 my world came crashing down, my son went to Houston to visit his children before they went back to school, got into an altercation with some of his family members from his dad’s side, and one of them shot and killed him. I don’t know how I’ve even survived the loss of my youngest child. It’s the worst pain that I’ve ever felt in my entire life. Since then I’ve been completely alone, struggling to just keep my utilities on. But my water has been turned off because the well that supplied my house was shut down by the new owners. So I have not had running water to my house in 2 years. I’ve kept my electricity tried to keep my phone on I did get food stamps so that does help me through the month. But I have contacted churches, charity organizations, community action, even when it’s far as to contact the news channel trying to get someone to help me pay the money to have a meter installed so I could have running water again. And no one has helped me so I am still living out of jugs. I was going to move and I’ll put a lot of my things in storage, and then the move fell through and I can’t keep up with everything so I’m about to lose my storage unit, which has my son that passed away, all of his things are stored in there. And it was due on the 1st of February and I have no money to pay it. Last Wednesday my electricity was disconnected for the first time. And I lived without lights for 5 days. Staying in this dark trailer with no electric, no heater ,freezing, until I finally was able to get a few places to help me pay it and get it turned back on. I have been doing everything in my power that I know to do to buy a car. Yes I have applied for disability but I’ve been turned down or denied three times since 2019. And I can’t just keep sitting here waiting for something that doesn’t seem like it’s ever going to come. I need a car. My car was stolen and totaled and sold for junk. The second car that I had just bought probably didn’t drive it 10 times, and I was trying to get the insurance to get it registered, and someone in the neighborhood got angry with me because I threatened to call the police on them for bringing stolen stuff on my property, so he destroyed it by putting water in my oil causing the engine to lock up. So that’s another one that had to be sold for junk. I’m asking or I’m begging, or someone to help me with enough money to catch my bills up, buy me a car, something that’ll just get me back and forth to work that’s all I’m asking. I want to go back to work. I have to go back to work. If I don’t get a vehicle and get a job and start earning income again I’m going to end up losing everything I’ve got. Including where I live and I’m going to end up on the streets with nothing. I have begged, pleaded, I have applied for loans, tried to get a car donated through the websites, and nothing has happened for me. I know I have cancer and I know there are times when I get pretty sick. But I want to work, I love to work, I worked my entire life until I got diagnosed with cancer. And I know I need to work it’s the only way I’m going to be able to keep a roof over my head and be able to pay my bills and try to move on with my life. And then I can start thinking about what I’m going to do about the cancer when the time comes. I don’t like asking anyone for anything because I’ve never had to ask for anything ,I’ve always been independent, and I’ve always worked since I was 16 years old. I hope people see this and read this and can find it in their hearts to help me. If not I don’t know what I’m going to do. There really isn’t much that I can do. This is my last resort. If I can’t get help to help myself, then I can’t see any reason to even try to go on. I want to live life, but I have to have a life to live. I put down $3,000 as an amount that I need. That would help me get me a car, get the meter installed for my water, and catch my storage payment up before I lose it, and have money for insurance and gas money so I can get a job.

Family of 7 falling behind.

  • Over the course of the past 16 years, I’ve finally managed to get myself, my wife, and our 5 daughters into a place we can forever call home. Our mortgage was reasonable and we could afford it. Fast forward 9 months and our insurance company goes out of business (managed by escrow). Since the company went out of business, there was no refund of “unused funds” for loss of coverage. My mortgage company then found another insurance policy. The policy was incredibly high, more than 600% of my original policy. This added an additional $800/mo due with mortgage payment for this insurance.
  • For obvious reasons, I had found my own insurance company All State. Ended up getting a good deal on a car/home bundle. It felt like I was finally beginning to the light at the end of the tunnel. Then, All State sends someone to look at my property in fall (as leaves are falling off of trees). Naturally there were some leaves that hung on to our gutters and they took pictures and canceled my policy. When I was notified of this the leaves had already been removed,  sent pictures, the same day, and they still continued with the cancelation, but promised to give me the same insurance at the same rate. They cut me a check for $3,300 and requested for me to hold on to it. I did. When they called they needed $4,700 to reinstate my policy and continue coverage for the remainder 10 months. So now I owe the obnoxiously high mortgage + monthly payments on homeowners insurance, because I didnt have the $4,700, I had their $3,300, and nothing more. So I’m stuck with $450/mo homeowners insurance, plus $2,400 for mortgage.
  • Then the big thing happened. Our van blew the engine with less than 100 miles past warranty coverage. (Still owed 17k), so I had to return the vehical to the lot and they helped me get into another suv suitable for our size family. So now my payments are $1060/mo for a vehical (from being upside down on previous loan) for the next 72months. Plus my credit cards maxed out.
  • My family has taken the hit from all of this, after food and bills, I’m left with nothing, that’s after working 12-13 hours for 5 days usually totaling 64 hours a week. I’m in so far over my head and have no idea how to move forward and get back on top. I’ve already canceled every subscription to help, we’ve chained our food to mostly chicken (cheapest meat) and don’t qualify for any government help. With inflation I’m absolutely stuck. My homeowners insurance policy and vehical paid off would be a life changer for our family. Please help us, God bless.

Contractor Laid Off Due to Federal Mass Layoffs: Requesting Help

Recently, I lost my job as a contractor for a federal agency where I worked as a Management and Program Analyst. I loved my job, my office, and my team. It was fulfilling to handle complex problems, and I gained a great deal of satisfaction from this job.

In October 2023, I became a homeowner again. I was lucky to live in a rental with below market rental rates, which helped me to save quickly. Working from home also saved me commuting costs. I have no credit card debt, and my car is paid off. I live within my means. However, I’ve lived in my home for 1 year and 4 months, and I haven’t had enough time to rebuild my savings after buying this house.

This sudden horrible mass layoff will have a cascading effect. First, I can’t pay my mortgage, and it will take me longer than 6 months to find employment. When foreclosure starts, I have to pack up a home I just moved into and go where?  By the time the foreclosure starts I will be completely broke. I will eat through what little savings I have, and it will just continue to spiral. The job market will be saturated with others affected by the mass layoffs. Many of us are competing for the same jobs. I just need more time to find work even at a reduced salary to get me through this challenge. I am too old to have this continued path of starting over financially. I’m devastated and I’m so hurt at losing a job I was good at, a job where I was well liked, a job where my colleagues submitted compliments to my contracting company on a regular basis. A job that had my branch chief in tears after learning she lost me. Just all gone. I once again am feeling the kick in the gut by life all because I simply did not have enough time to rebuild my savings account. Look at how vulnerable we can easily become. With the stroke of a pen, it’s all gone.

In the past, I overcame hardships with help from friends or by taking on part-time jobs.  I don’t have time on my side. I’m not in my twenties. Every financial setback at this point affects retirement, and how long I have to pay off my mortgage before retirement. I had a plan, and I was moving in a positive direction until circumstances beyond my control intervened. I can’t even apply to other federal agencies where my skills will be a direct match because of the hiring freeze. Another situation beyond my control. I applied for a permanent position early 2024, and I did not get the position. Get this……….had I gotten that position I would be in the probationary period, and I would have still been laid off anyway.

Let me share something I learned from my mom, and it’s something I still practice. Every Sunday my mom prepared a large Sunday dinner and sent plates to all the seniors in our neighborhood. Someone asked her why she did this, she said, “If my child is in a dangerous situation, gets hurt, and I can’t get to her, my kindness will be repaid, and someone will find and save her.” This is how repaying kindness works. In memory of my mom, I promised that if any friend or family member needed financial help, I would always provide it as a gift without ever expecting repayment. I was able to help friends and family in this way, bringing a little peace of mind to whatever hardship they were facing. This holds especially true for me today. If I receive any help and once I am employed, I will pay it forward. I believe in karma.

I’m humbly asking the community at beggingmoney.com for $22,793.16 in assistance to cover my mortgage payments for 12 months.

Lapidary Business Start Up

Hello, my name is Drew! My entire life, as far back as I can remember I have been drawn with rocks and stones. If I had to guess a number, I would say that I have packed home at least 3000 or more geodes, nodules and other interesting specimen. I would LOVE to be able to actually make money working with stone. It would be a dream come true to me. But lapidary equipment is unimaginably expensive. A good cabbing machine to shape and polish pendants Cost anywhere from $800(junk) to 2500 brand new. Then the grinding pads are around $150 each, needing at least 8 of them. A circular type saw that I need due to the sheer size of some of my stones ranges from $5000 to $14000.  then you have The wet style ban saws and the wet grinders and vibratory tables, Gem faceting machines. There is so much overhead that comes with it I fear I will never see my dream to fruition. I have never asked anyone for help. I am typically the one helping others but im I feel like this may be the only way I can reach my goals of owning some of this equipment. I appreciate you for taking the time to read my post, and thank you even more for any kind on contributions that are made. I will be forever grateful down to a dollar. If you would like to help me reach my dreams and achieve me goals, Feel free to cash app me. My tag is $drewster369. Again, thank you 🙏 for your generosity!

Après la violence et la souffrance, un combat pour la reconstruction.

Il y a quelques années, alors que le monde était plongé dans la crise du Covid, j’ai rencontré un homme qui, au départ, semblait être quelqu’un de bienveillant et attentionné. Très vite, une relation s’est installée, et nous avons emménagé ensemble. Mais ce qui ressemblait à une belle histoire s’est rapidement transformé en un cauchemar. Pendant un an et demi, j’ai vécu sous l’emprise d’un homme qui m’a détruite, aussi bien psychologiquement que physiquement.

La descente aux enfers s’est accélérée lorsque nous avons pris un appartement ensemble. C’est là que les violences ont commencé à s’intensifier. Tortures psychologiques, manipulations, coups… chaque jour était une lutte silencieuse, une survie au quotidien. Il avait une emprise totale sur moi, au point que je cachais la réalité à mon entourage, incapable de parler, incapable de demander de l’aide.

Un jour, il m’a demandé de lui trouver une psychologue pour simuler une dépression auprès de son employeur. J’ai pris rendez-vous, mais au moment d’annuler comme il me l’avait demandé, quelque chose en moi a réagi. Au lieu d’annuler, j’ai demandé à prendre sa place. Cette décision a changé ma vie. Pendant plusieurs mois, je continuais à tout cacher, à faire semblant. Jusqu’au jour où il m’a brisé les côtes.

Ce jour-là, je n’ai pas eu la force d’aller à mon rendez-vous chez la psychologue. Mais la séance suivante, j’ai tout raconté. Sa réaction a été immédiate : elle m’a dit qu’elle ne me laisserait pas partir tant qu’elle n’aurait pas la certitude que j’allais porter plainte. Je l’ai fait, et aujourd’hui encore, je lui suis infiniment reconnaissante, car seule, je n’y serais jamais arrivée. J’étais enfermée dans cette emprise, avec cet espoir insensé que, peut-être, un jour, il changerait. Comme tant de femmes qui vivent l’enfer aux côtés d’un homme violent.

Après ma plainte, il a été expulsé de notre domicile. Mais pour moi, ce n’était que le début d’un autre combat. J’ai été arrêtée au travail, plongée dans une dépression profonde, aggravée par un stress post-traumatique dont je n’ai pris conscience que bien plus tard. Pendant deux ans, j’ai vécu dans l’ombre de cette souffrance, incapable de me lever, incapable de reprendre une vie normale. J’ai accumulé des dettes, incapable de payer mes assurances maladie et mes charges courantes. Les seules aides que j’ai reçues m’ont permis de garder un toit sur ma tête, mais rien de plus.

Le procès a duré trois longues années. J’ai eu peur, peur de parler, peur de me confronter à lui, peur même de lui causer du tort malgré tout ce qu’il m’avait fait subir. L’emprise ne disparaît pas du jour au lendemain. Mais j’ai fini par y arriver, par m’exprimer, par me libérer. Il a été condamné à plusieurs années de prison, malgré son recours, et la justice suit son cours.

Aujourd’hui, cela fait un an que j’ai repris le travail. Mais malgré cela, je ne m’en sors toujours pas. Mes dettes accumulées durant ces années noires continuent de peser sur moi. Mon salaire est saisi, ne me laissant que de quoi payer mon loyer et survivre. Chaque mois, je dois faire face à cette réalité : une dette de 50 000 francs, un poids immense qui me rappelle sans cesse ce que j’ai traversé. Ce chiffre, au-delà de sa valeur financière, représente toutes ces années de souffrance, de lutte et de survie. Il m’empêche d’avancer sereinement, de tourner définitivement la page et de reconstruire mon avenir sans ces chaînes du passé.

J’essaie de me reconstruire, pas à pas, mais le chemin est encore long. Je suis toujours suivie par une psychologue, car les séquelles sont profondes. Les cauchemars, les peurs persistantes, l’incapacité à faire confiance, à envisager un avenir serein… chaque jour est un défi.

Mon objectif aujourd’hui est simple : me reconstruire, et ne plus laisser mon passé dicter mon avenir. Mais pour cela, j’ai besoin d’aide. Aide pour surmonter ces dettes qui me maintiennent prisonnière de cette période, aide pour enfin respirer et avancer sans ce poids constant. Toute contribution, quelle qu’elle soit, serait une lueur d’espoir dans ce long processus de reconstruction.

Merci à ceux qui prendront le temps de lire mon histoire, de comprendre mon parcours et, peut-être, de m’aider à tourner enfin cette page.

A Father’s Plea: Help Me Smile Again for My Autistic Son

Every day, I wake up to the soft sounds of my son stirring in his room. He is autistic, nonverbal, and his world is one of patterns, routines, and deep emotions he struggles to express. My world, however, is one of sacrifices—ones I gladly make for him. But some sacrifices come at a painful cost, and one of those is my ability to smile.

I never imagined I would lose my teeth so young. I never imagined the simple act of eating a meal would become a challenge. I never thought I would feel ashamed to talk to people, afraid that my appearance would make them turn away. But here I am—struggling with the reality that my missing teeth don’t just rob me of my confidence, they rob me of opportunities to provide for my son.

Not long ago, my life looked very different. I was married, holding onto the dream of a stable family, believing that love could weather any storm. But life has a way of unraveling plans. The pressures of raising a special-needs child took a toll on my marriage, leading to a painful separation. Now, I am a single father, doing my best to navigate a world that often feels isolating and overwhelming.

I want to go back to work, but my son’s needs are demanding, and I am his primary caregiver. Therapy appointments, unpredictable meltdowns, sleepless nights—I pour every ounce of myself into making sure he is safe, comforted, and supported. But in the process, I have lost pieces of myself—my confidence, my ability to provide, my very smile.

Something as simple as eating dinner with my son has become a challenge. Soft foods, avoiding certain textures, and the constant pain of exposed gums—every bite is a reminder of what I’ve lost. More than that, social gatherings are unbearable. I can’t bring myself to talk to people, let alone smile. Job interviews feel impossible. First impressions matter, and when you don’t have a smile to offer, doors close before they even open.

Dental implants could change everything for me. They could give me back my ability to eat, to speak confidently, to smile at my son without hesitation. They could help me re-enter the workforce, giving me the chance to build a future where I am financially stable and able to provide for my son’s needs without fear.

I am not asking for luxury or vanity. I am asking for a chance—to reclaim my dignity, to secure a job, and to be the father my son needs without feeling broken every time I look in the mirror.

Philanthropy has the power to transform lives, and I hope my story touches your heart. A smile may seem like a small thing, but to me, it is the key to rebuilding my life. Your generosity could give me that second chance—to eat without pain, to face the world without shame, and most importantly, to smile at my son with the confidence and joy he deserves to see in his father.

The total cost of the dental implant procedure is $32,000—an amount far beyond what I can afford in my current situation.

If you find it in your heart to help, your support would mean everything. Not just to me, but to my son—the little boy whose world is already filled with so many challenges. Your kindness could change our lives forever.

Please consider making a donation to help me regain my smile and rebuild my future. I currently can accept donations with cash app. Thank you very much for your donations

Almost

If…If I had been a few years older than I could have possibly taken my brothers in and been the mother to them they never knew. If I had joined the military a few years earlier. If I could have stopped them from doing this or that…We were separated before life actually tore us apart and delivered us into evil with no skills. I survived, because I learned that putting God first even in the middle of my mistakes, kept me from drowning. Faith of a mustard seed, that is the difference between success and failure.

Now I am a veteran on a fixed income, trying to care for my mentally challenged brother in a state hospital because he was severely abused in the system. I can’t tell him our youngest brother is no longer with us because his case workers feel like it will break him. I am humbly asking for whatever is on your heart to give so that I can send him a few things like a cd player, headphones, and I am working on trying to go visit him in person because even having a family I understand the type of loneliness he is experiencing because I still have it from time to time.  know that life is more than money. I just don’t have enough of it to go around because I paid for my youngest brother’s funeral cost and it put me behind on some bills. Thank you for taking the time to read my story, for that I hope your day is wonderful.

Be Blessed,

Phoebe

Desperate for Help

Hello, my name is Russell, and I’m reaching out in the hope that you might help me during one of the most challenging periods of my life. I’m 62 years old, and I recently lost my job, leaving me unemployed and struggling to keep up with essential expenses. I have always prided myself on being independent and self-reliant, but now I find myself in a situation where I must ask for help. I am in urgent need of approximately $5,000.00 to cover critical bills and prevent my life from spiraling further out of control.

One of my biggest concerns right now is my car. I have fallen behind on my car payments, and the threat of repossession is real and looming. My car is much more than a vehicle—it is my lifeline. It enables me to attend job interviews, run errands, and maintain a semblance of normalcy in my day-to-day life. Losing my car would not only impact my mobility, but it would also significantly hinder my ability to secure new employment opportunities and manage daily responsibilities.

In addition to the mounting car payments, I have several bills that I simply cannot afford since I do not currently have an income. These include prescription medications that my wife relies on for her health, as well as essential utility bills such as electric, water, gas, auto ins, and groceries. Each day brings new challenges as I scramble to keep up with these mounting expenses, and the stress of this financial instability is overwhelming.

Adding to these difficulties is a personal crisis within my family. My wife recently underwent surgery and is now staying with our daughter in another state so that our daughter and son-in-law can care for her during her recovery. While I am immensely grateful that she is receiving the care she needs, the physical distance between us adds to my emotional strain. I remain here at our home, tirelessly searching for work and managing the household responsibilities that have become even more burdensome in her absence.

I am reaching out to this compassionate community in the hope that you can help me bridge this difficult gap. Every dollar contributed will go directly toward keeping my car, paying off these overdue bills, and providing the stability I desperately need to get back on my feet. Your generosity would not only help me maintain my independence but also ensure that I can continue supporting my wife’s recovery from afar.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and consider my request. I deeply appreciate any help you can provide during this challenging time.

Sincerely,
Russell

Request for Financial Support to Revive ELOHIM COSMETICS and Continue Supporting Orphanages

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Oubaye, founder of ELOHIM COSMETICS in TOGO, a company specializing in the treatment of skin diseases and external hemorrhoids through natural antibiotic soaps made from raw shea butter, tamarind, palm kernel oil, neem oil, and dried moringa leaf powder. These products, derived from traditional and natural expertise, have improved the quality of life for many people while supporting social causes.

Unfortunately, in October 2023, a car accident turned my life and my business upside down. Medical expenses and the consequences of this accident led to the bankruptcy of my company, despite all my efforts to keep it afloat. My lease was terminated, and I now find myself unable to restart my activities without external support.

ELOHIM COSMETICS was not only a source of income for me but also a means to fund local orphanages and pay my employees. Reviving this business is therefore crucial, not only for me but also for the children I was helping through it.

This is why I am reaching out to you to request funding of $13,200. This amount will allow the factory to restart production,  pay off the debts, and breathe new life into this initiative that combines health, well-being, and solidarity. You can find evidence of my work and achievements in this link:

I firmly believe in you and your solidarity, and I am convinced that your support could have a significant impact, not only on my life but also on the lives of those who benefit from my products and the orphanages I support.

I remain entirely at your disposal to provide further information or discuss this request. Hoping for a favorable response, I thank you in advance for the attention you will give to my situation.

With deepest gratitude,
Founder of ELOHIM COSMETICS TOGO

Cancer Survivor need Help!

Dear kind-hearted strangers,

I am reaching out today with a humble request for support. As a Stage 3 Breast cancer survivor, I have faced one of life’s toughest battles, and while I am extremely grateful and blessed to be here, the financial burden left behind is overwhelming. I had to take an early retirement at age 48 after getting thru all the treatments! Medical bills, treatments, and daily expenses have taken a toll, and I am struggling to stay afloat.

And now I recently injured my shoulder of my dominant arm to where I need surgery! I am behind on my bills already and will not have $$ coming in for a few weeks! Hoping for some help to get back on track!

I have always been someone who fights through challenges, but right now, I need your help. Any contribution, big or small, would make a world of difference in helping me cover essential living expenses, and continue my journey to recovery.

Your kindness, prayers, and support remind me that I am not alone in this fight.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Tough Financial Year and We Need Help to Save Our Home

Last year was a really tough year for our family. Our car is old and broke down several times amounting to heavy repair costs. My husband needed the car to get to work, so we had no choice but to get it fixed. We had 5 appliances break down last year. Which had to be replaced, 2 refrigerators, washer and dryer, and the dishwasher. At a minimum of $2000 an appliance it adds up quick. The worst part of that is that none of the appliances are more than a few years old. My parents have the same fridge they had when I was a kid. They just don’t make things like they used to. One top of that $1500 was stolen right out of our checking account and I can’t get it back. T-Moblle was hacked a few years ago. My information is on the dark web. Which makes it easier to hack into my bank account, I guess.

We have 2 kids of our own and my brother and his 2 sons live with us. The boys lost their mom to COVID, 19 3 years ago. She got sick when she was pregnant and didn’t end up making it. They moved in with us so my brother could work and I could step in and take care of them. If we lose our home we will have to separate and I won’t be there when the boys wake up in the morning or be able to kiss them before bed. I home school the three older children and watch the youngest, so getting a job just isn’t possible. Not to mention everything cost more than twice what it used to. We were spending about  $150 a week on groceries and now we are pay about $300 to $500 to feed 7 of us. Our electric bill doubled and living in Texas with 110 degree highs in the summer months means we pay more on our bill. We live in an HOA neighborhood and in high summer we have to water the grass every day. It used to cost half as much but now we pay what we used to pay in the summer, in the winter months, which is without watering.

My oldest son was in motorcycle accident. A man ran a stop sign and plowed right into him. Thank God he was wearing a helmet or he wouldn’t be with us today. He had to have surgery on his left knee cap. He had gashes on his left hand that went all the way to the bone that had to be repaired. The medical bills are so high I was astonished, and that was with insurance.

We need $10,00 so our home doesn’t go into foreclosure.  It took us a lot of hard work to buy our first home. I really don’t want to lose it. It has been a very trying year. We have gotten so behind just trying to keep our heads above water, I honestly don’t know what we are going to do. This is my last resort. Please help us.

Please for my children and me

**Hello everyone,**
My name is Mélissa, and I am a single mother to a little angel named Melian, who will soon be turning five. We live on the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean.
A year ago, we experienced a family tragedy. Our lives turned into a nightmare, and we found ourselves completely alone in the world. We lost our entire family. My son’s future now rests entirely on my shoulders, and I cannot afford to falter.
The hardships we have endured have left scars—depression, debts… But today, I want to take control of my life for my son. I want to move forward and leave behind the past that has destroyed us. I have lost everything, but I have a plan: I want to go back to school and work in the social sector.
To do this, I need to take courses and finance part of my education. On top of that, there are expensive babysitting costs. We no longer have a car, which makes getting around very difficult, especially since public transportation here is poorly developed. We receive no assistance, and our bills keep piling up. The cost of groceries here is extremely high, and we have gone days without eating.
I have always been hardworking since a young age, but life has left us with nothing. Thanks to your donations, a significant part of my debts will be paid off, giving me the hope of saving enough to buy a car and find a new home.
This is our last chance to pull ourselves out of this abyss. I hope this fundraiser will catch your attention and generosity for a mother and her son. I want to believe that, despite the financial hardships we are facing, better days await us—thanks to you.
Especially with my son’s birthday approaching, I am determined to get us out of this situation.
Thank you for taking the time to read our story. ☀️
A huge thank you to everyone who chooses to support us.
**Best regards,**

Seeking Support During Hardship

To: Listening and Compassionate Reader

Hope this message finds you well. I am writing to humbly request financial assistance due to a prolonged period of hardship. Over the past year, I have fallen behind significantly on my mortgage and household bills.  My situation has been compounded by several challenges. This situation has not only created financial stress but has also taken an emotional toll on my family. Nowadays each household consists of 2 or more incomes. When times get hard my guy up and leaves me with a load of debt that he created, I have been trying to get through while having other challenging life issues. My daughter was recently denied disability benefits, which has further strained my finances. I had hoped that these benefits would provide some relief, but now I found myself facing even more uncertainty. My daughter’s health challenges require ongoing care, and the denial of benefits has made it difficult to afford necessary treatments and therapies. As this also cancels out her medical coverage where the needed doctors are covered for her care.  She is bipolar, has severe depression and on top of that her doctors have stated she has a slight sign of schizophrenia. We had hoped Having to watch her all day and night would be very demanding. I have tried to get a second job to catch the slack but it is very hard with all that I have to deal with. I also have a kid in college that depends on me financially. I want her to succeed in life so she can become independent and be able to take care of herself stress free. My mom is a survivor of breast cancer. Now she is in need of surgery on both her knees due to having an allergic reaction to injection from a doctor. This has added to my anxiety. She relies on me for support, and it’s heartbreaking to see her in pain and unable to move comfortably.  My father passed away 10 years ago from pancreatic Cancer I already lost him. I only get one mom and I am trying to keep her around as long as I can. I have to keep up with my health as well as both parents have and had cancer. The stress of my financial situation has affected my family dynamics as well. I used to enjoy family outings and simple activities together, but now I often find myself worrying about bills and the future. This constant stress has led to massive migraines and my blood pressure being really high. I want to provide a stable and happy environment for my family, but it feels increasingly challenging.  I have a big heart and will do anything and everything for others. Despite my best efforts to be a financial asset to others,  I am struggling to keep up with my own obligations as the economic situation has become increasingly difficult.

Any support you can provide during this difficult challenging time would be immensely appreciated. Your assistance would not only help me catch up on overdue bills but also provide some much-needed peace of mind. It would allow us to focus on my mother’s health and my daughter’s needs without the constant worry of financial burdens.

Thank you for considering my request. I am hopeful for your understanding and support. I will definitely pay it forward when I get out of this hole I am in.

Sincerely,

Eboni Williams
