I never thought I’d be writing something like this, but we don’t know where else to turn. My boyfriend, our two dogs, and I are currently living out of our car here in Washington State — and with all the cold rain lately, it’s been miserable. The days are wet and freezing, and nights feel even longer when everything is damp and there’s no warm place to dry off.My boyfriend recently broke his ankle, so he can’t work or drive. Our car battery has also died, and since it’s a manual transmission, I can’t move it. We’re completely stranded, trying to keep ourselves and our dogs safe and warm.The small hotel nearby has been our only shelter from the storm, but it costs $150 a night — and we’ve run out of money. Without help, we’ll be forced back into our freezing, soaked car.  My boyfriend is set to have his ankle surgery this week and so we need to keep this room. We’ve applied for housing assistance and are waiting, but right now, all we need is help to keep our hotel room for the next month while we find a way forward.Every donation, no matter how small, helps us stay dry, keep our dogs safe, and sleep somewhere warm. Please, if you can, help us make it through this tough stretch. Even your kindness and sharing our story means the world to us. ❤️ Click here to donate

Hello,

My name is Netta, I have devoted my life to the Lord and helping others my entire life, I am a very private person and have a very hard time asking others for help with anything. I have tried literally everything else and this is my last resort to figure this out. In April of this year I found myself going through a divorce that I was completely blindsided by. I moved into my own apartment after being with my husband for over 13 years. I have 4 beautiful rescue kitties that are my life. I am a hard worker and recently started my own Private Duty Home Healthcare business as I have been a Certified Nursing Assistant for over 36 years. I own a 2014 ford focus that has given me nothing but trouble since paying it off and was recently unable to work due to car troubles. (It is fixed now) However,  I am behind in November and now December rent (I pay 1700.00 per month) I was issued a 3 day notice that expired on Friday December 5th 😞 I only have $500 to give to my landlord right now and I have tried getting a personal loan however they keep telling me I need a co-signer. My goal is $3000 but anything will help! Ughhh I do not know what else to do except pray that there are good faithful people that would be willing to help me. I know I am a complete stranger and everyone is struggling but I thought I would at least try this. If there is any way possible that you can help please donate to my PayPal account listed below. God Bless you and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

This past year has been a very difficult year financially, therefore I am seeking some help for rent and living expenses. I’m. A survivor from extremely narssistic abuse and I would like to have some wiggle room to get a better job that will be more sustaining and also build an online business. I also am a singer/songwriter and would love to also focus on that some day.  I have two young boys who are 3 and 4 and attend preschool. I am able to work part time during the week by door dashing. It’s been useful since I’m able to collect money on the spot and use on a daily basis living on survival mode, but it does not cover all of my living expenses.
The reason I have been so behind on my finances is because  I lost my job after leaving my abusive ex and father of my children. He ended up dislocating my clavicle and was eventually arrested. There’s now a restraining order in place and I am grateful he is out of my life. While I was dealing with the abuse and getting him out of my home I had a sales job with potential earnings of 6 figures that came to an end due to the office not having enough movement with my absence. Even with my injury I still did work when I could because I had to.
I’ve been able to seek assistance through victim services and local social programs but my funds for that have been used up. I also applied for a program called Paid Leave Oregon and Safe Leave Oregon but was denied due to being an independent contractor with the sales job and door dash job. I’m waiting for my appeal for that to come through but I’m not sure if it will be accepted. I have documentation of everything if anyone is needing to see the proof of my situation. My credit is poor and I have used pay day loans, pay in 4 loans, you name it. Asking for help here has become my last resort and I hope that someone is willing to bless me with the help I need.
If you have read my information this far, I really appreciate it and I will be forever grateful for any assistance you would be willing to provide me.

Kind Regards,

Kellie

Hello,

I never thought I’d be begging for money from strangers online, but it’s come to this point in my life. I would not be doing this unless I knew wholeheartedly that I deserve help, kindness, and compassion. I was raised by a lower-income, single, first-generation immigrant mom. She escaped Russia to give her two kids a better life in the US. She left her family and everything behind to come to a foreign country (without even knowing any English) and worked day and night as a piano teacher and caretaker to provide for her two kids, make sure we received a proper education, and ensure that we had the tools necessary to live stable lives (unlike most people in Russia). I was accepted to all UC schools with a full scholarship back in 2017. I had dreams of developing a successful career, making my mother proud, and being able to later pay back my mother for her infinite sacrifices. Starting in 2018, I developed depression and anxiety due to the strong language and cultural barrier between my mother and I. She was struggling to pay for credit card debt, rent, gas, car insurance, life insurance, etc all by herself while ensuring chronic stress, financial hardship, and trauma from raising two kids by herself in the most expensive city in the United States. Due to the pandemic and continuing financial struggles, I have not been able to go back to university. My mother lost most of her clients when the pandemic started and I had to step in and work two jobs since 2021 to provide for the both of us while my older brother was finishing his rigorous graduate degree. I have since worked my way up in the restaurant industry – all while caring for my elderly mother, regularly paying her credit card debt payments, and almost single-handedly remaining fully responsible for both her and myself. I’m so burnt out emotionally and physically that I’ve developed involuntary muscle spasms from constant stress, overwhelm, and overthinking. I’ve been on Zoloft for the last 5 years. I love my mother deeply but she’s getting older and some of her own trauma is causing her to become verbally and emotionally abusive towards me. I know I am more than capable of being able to support myself in the future, but I need help paying off our significant credit card debt. I love my older brother, but he is not yet in a position to help us financially (he is finishing his residency to become a spinal surgeon). I worry for the overall health of me and my mother. We are decent, kind-hearted, responsible, tax-paying, law-abiding, Christian US citizens. We have never once abused a single drug, drank alcohol, or relied on welfare programs of any kind. Once my brother becomes a working surgeon, we can give my mother peace of mind and financial security. In the meantime, I am anxious, scared, and worried that my mother won’t make it to live to see any future grandkids or go on a first-time family vacation, etc. My mother is so brilliant, talented, angelic, wise, responsible, and Christ-like. I have done my best so far to work 60 hours a week, but the credit card debt that accumulated over the years from working tirelessly to remain afloat is keeping us from living more sustainably. I have always been a reliable, kind, understanding, and respectful worker who is appreciated at my high-pressure fine-dining job. I know there are plenty of scumbags out there making tens of thousands off of selling drugs, child pornography, etc. I know there are people with not even 5% of the moral character, decency, work ethic, talent, and capability of my family who “live large”. I have never and would never even think of starting an OnlyFans or degrading myself into relying on some random “sugar daddy”. We are $35,000 in debt. I will continue to work 60 hours a week without a single day of rest because I refuse to just abandon my poor mother. I know plenty of young people my age who would just give up and leave someone like my mother behind. If there is anyone reading this and who is willing to help a stranger out of the kindness of your heart, I would deeply appreciate any kind of funding. I can assure you this funding will only go directly towards basic living expenses and credit card debt. Thank you and God Bless.

Hi everyone,

I never imagined I’d be in a position where I’d have to ask for help like this. Life has thrown me some challenges that I just can’t overcome alone, and right now, I’m doing everything I can to stay strong and keep moving forward.

Over the past few months, my work hours have decreased.  It is the slow season at my job, and I just haven’t been getting as many hours.  I’ve been trying hard to get another source of income, but nothing has come through yet.  Despite my best efforts to keep up with everything, I’ve fallen behind on basic expenses like rent and utilities. It’s been tough, emotionally, mentally, and financially.

I’m reaching out because I’m at a point where I can’t do this without support. Your kindness and generosity would help me keep a roof over my head.

I know times are tough for everyone, and asking for help is never easy. But any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to me. Even sharing this page or offering words of encouragement would make a difference.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, for caring, and for helping me believe that better days are ahead. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

With gratitude and hope,

Pamela Wirkkala

Why I’m Asking for a Hand Up, Not a Handout

Life has a way of humbling us and reminding us that strength sometimes means asking for help. Recently, I lost my job, and that sudden loss of income has placed me in a position I never expected to be in — fighting to keep a roof over my head and stability for my son and myself. I’m not looking for pity or a way to avoid responsibility. What I’m asking for is simply a hand up — a chance to stay on my feet long enough to rebuild and regain my independence.

Right now, I’m about two weeks away from facing possible homelessness. My most urgent goal is to prevent that by catching up on essential expenses such as rent, utilities, my phone bill, and internet access. These aren’t luxuries — they’re necessities that allow me to search for work, apply for jobs, and stay connected to opportunities. Without them, I lose the ability to move forward. To stabilize my situation and stay current through the next billing cycle, I need between $2,000 and $5,000. That amount would allow me to bring my past-due bills up to date, keep my home secure, and give me the breathing room to rebuild my income stream.

After years of depending on employers and unpredictable job markets, I’ve realized I can’t keep placing my family’s livelihood entirely in someone else’s hands. This experience has opened my eyes to the importance of creating something of my own — a business, a skill, a sustainable source of income that can’t be taken away overnight. I’ve been learning about low-cost online business models like dropshipping and digital reselling, hoping to start small while I continue to look for traditional employment.

More than anything, I want to be a positive example for my 15-year-old son. He’s at a crucial age, watching closely how I respond to this challenge. I want him to see that adversity doesn’t define you — how you respond to it does. I want him to see that asking for help is not weakness, but courage. And most importantly, that when life knocks you down, you don’t give up — you get back up, work harder, and rebuild stronger.

Your donation would make a direct, meaningful difference. It would not only help me avoid homelessness and cover basic needs, but also empower me to stay connected and focused on rebuilding my future through hard work and perseverance. I’m not asking for a handout — I’m asking for a hand up, a bridge to stability, and the chance to stand on my own again.

Thank you sincerely for your time, kindness, and consideration.

Hi I am looking for one time aid on my rent, due tomorrow. It is $1550 and I currently have $870 so I need $680 still. I clean houses and I have carpal tunnel right now so I can only clean 1 house a day right now. I am wearing 2 wrist braces and they are helping but it still hurts to do all the repetitive motions I have to do every day. I am 47 and have 3 kids at home, all teenagers. Their dad and I divorced 12 years ago and he has been hiding so he doesn’t have to pay child support. I am doing my very best, working hard cleaning ever since and I am now having to look for other work. I am on Care for babysitting, pet sitting and senior care, but haven’t gotten anything just yet. I just need to get the rent in on time so I don’t have to pay a fee on top of it. Please consider helping this mom get it done, I will be truly and forever grateful. Thank you for reading! Here is my paypal-   http://@JasmineCooper707

Greetings,

In desperate need of funds to prevent homelessness for my Family.

Currently $4600 ( $4400 +$200 late fee, with 2 weeks before another $2200 will be due, $6800).

We have endured multiple ‘road blocks’, series of bad luck, suffering and injustices to end up in crisis.

My husband and I have been together for 28 years. I have supported our family as a fine dining server. We live minimally, homeschool, garden, bicycle, etc…we both experienced tragedy and death, and have viewed the quality of Life as best ‘Present’. No one is promised tomorrow, sleeping with clean hands and a pure heart is invaluable,  making choices with the time given.

I have lost jobs over the decades to be there for my husband.

He is highly skilled Medical Cultivator but we have not been able to utilize his talents to ‘come up’.

We moved from the midwest to the coast in ’05, with $600 and what fit in a rented mini van. Thats how we started in California. Trying to find stability and lay down roots…In late 2023, we had been pre approved for a mortgage!! Our life long Dream.

But there were no homes, literally available that we could afford. The same time I found a Mass in my breast, after discovering breast cancer causing hormones were placed inside my body against my will.

My Grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer in her 50’s, months later her daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer at 34 years old.

I was in third grade at the time. I made life choices to mitigate my 19.9% genetic risk of developing breast cancer. When I watched my Mothers last breath at 39 yrs old, I was 16 yrs and have PTSD from this.

Discovering the hormones, the mass, I began to lose ‘myself’. It took 6 weeks for radiology to clear me of cancer.

2 weeks later, our landlord informed us he sold our home.

I spent December of 2023 packing up our life in cardboard boxes. Rented a Uhaul and filled a storage unit New Years Eve.

We could not find a place. We ended up in a pricy furnished unit that we paid all utilities in and $419 in storage fees monthly.

Mid January, I found rats in the unit. We lost 1/3 of our belongings. The insurance refused to pay.

It took 2 weeks to clean and throw away our things. I ended up being put on disability. I could not afford bills. We ended up homeless Sept 2024. I went to small claims to fight for storage losses.I lost. I racked $20,000 in debt surviving. Roach motels, rental applications from Oakland to Arcata, we were robbed of our SE bicycles and racks, we have footage in broad daylight but we just lost more.

I acted as my attorney to fight the medical malpractice, all while on disability, homeless, homeschooling our son…April 2025, I lost that case too.

Disability 52 weeks ended in May 2025. I tried working. It was going great!..then the owner started giving my shifts to the GM (his live in partner of over a decade, whom he was not paying wages) so he would make tips. He ended up intentionally trying to make me quit and then fired me for my PTSD when I would not.

I am trying to figure out 1) homeless prevention

pay back rent so we do not end up homeless. None of us can mentally handle it again, literally.

2) figure out consistent sufficient income to survive and be working to Buy a home ASAP

I am calling and applying to everything and there is no funding in any programs. There is no help. I feel so helpless and hopeless. My Family depends on me and I have not been able to provide the most basic needs.

I am exploring College?, Ihss, SSDI, workers compensation, multiple jobs, I do not know. Time is running out.

The hole is all encompassing. Surviving is not living. I want my child to have some stability before he is grown, my husband to have a home to sted before he is no longer able, we are good hearted people who want to contribute, who need fish and mending to the pole.

Thank you for your time, Blessings

Hello and Good afternoon, my name is Kimberly and I am here seeking assistance to avoid a state of homelessness, I am due to be in court on 09/18/2025, and I have run into a dead end with seeking assistance within the state in which I live.  With the cuts to federal aid from Woodyard Funds, none of the organizations in my area have any funding for assistance. I have been in a state of homelessness for almost 6 years since I lost my son to murder on Dec 17,2019 and this is the first time that I have managed to find somewhere to live. It has been very hard to regain stability after dealing with grief and being homeless for so long trying to regain stability has come with many challenges. After my other son and I moved he lost his job, thereby put the responsibility on me to meet all the needs of the house hold. He did find another job, after a new restaurant B-Mores opened and 3 weeks later the restaurant closed its doors, on pay day, and did not inform the employees nor pay them.  Things have really been hard, and to have to pack up and move after only been there for a short period of time, would put the two of us back where we started after years of instability. I do have a job and he has found another one, but won’t receive his first check until after we go to court. Any amount of help with be greatly appreciated. An any request for verification of the what I have provided can be verified. Thank you all for you time, and again anyone that find it in their heart to help aid me in my dilemma. My Cashapp is $kimberlybooker8.

It’s very hard for me to come on here. I don’t like asking for help. I’m an only child, but I do have tons of younger cousins and family members. I enjoy being happy, fun and living life! Most of all I love to love. I started at 19. Pretty late compared to some lol. I’m 24 now and you would think I’m in a realtionship, a wife or a mother by now.. but no. I’m alone. May of 2025 I did fall pregnant though. My boyfirend at the time chose games and himself over me. Just great.. Let’s jump to June of 2025, my tummy is hurting. Really bad pain. I go to the doctors and they notify my that I lost my baby. Just great.. I decided to take my first solo trip out of the country 3 weeks laterto get a break from it all. Even then I didn’t ask for help, I chose to hold it all in and hopes it’ll all go away.

A few days later I return to the US and immediately my phone gets broken. I need it for my job so I had to get another one. (For contect: The bill was late so I had to drop $600 while on my trip to keep it active incase of emergencies). A few days after my return the stomach problems came back.. but 10X worse! I hade to sit out of work for full 11 days alone. Crying and curled up in a ball. For the first time ever I asked for help. But no one took me seriously. I’m always the one helping them, cant I help myself?

August things started to get better! I started catching back up on bills and the pain from my miscarrage finally fizzled out! I could be free again!! Well.. that was until life really showed me how unpredictable it could be. The medical bills, the car bills, the food and water I need. Rent. I tried to do it all but there’s only but so much I can do! I tried everthinng I could. I worked myself so hard I started to get sick again! Eventually.. I realized I needed to stop. Choose myself and ask for help. I begged my leasing office to hear me out as I try to get better but they are precistant on getting the money. I understand that’s their job and they’re doing what they need. I’m upset at myself for not asking for help sooner. So here I am. I’ve spent my whole morning on sountless websites allowing myself to be vulnerable and ask for money. No luck yet but I’m praying a miricle will happen and I can get my life on stack once again. I don’t need a lot. All that I need total is $1,131.33. Please dont feel obligated to push out the whole portion, even $10 would be so much help as I’m still working the best I could to come up the the remailder!! Thank you so much for your time!!

XOXO S.G.

I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your support during a very difficult time in my life. I’ve recently fallen on hard times and am struggling to keep up with my basic living expenses. I need $2075

I’m currently facing the possibility of eviction and am doing everything I can to avoid losing our home. On top of that, my son is started school and I’m unable to afford the clothes and shoes he needs to be prepared and feel confident.

This is not easy for me to ask, but any financial help—no matter how small—would mean the world to us right now. If you’re able to assist or can point me in the direction of any resources that might help, I would be deeply grateful.

For ten years, I dedicated myself to my family, tirelessly working seven days a week as a theater janitor to provide for them. This unwavering commitment, however, came at a significant cost to my own health. Years of relentless work prevented me from seeking necessary medical attention, leading to a critical deterioration in my well-being. The 2020 closures forced me to deplete my savings, setting the stage for a precarious financial existence characterized by constant paycheck-to-paycheck living and mounting debt. Even after regaining stability, the unexpected eviction notice 60 days before our move added immense stress, further exacerbating my health problems.

The move itself, undertaken to secure a new home for my family, pushed me beyond my physical limits. The strain of the relocation, coupled with the long commute, ultimately culminated in a car accident that forced me to confront my deteriorating health. Medical tests revealed dangerously high blood pressure and sugar levels, requiring immediate medical attention and rest. Despite my desperate need for time off, I continued working, driven by my responsibility to provide for my family. However, my pleas for temporary assistance were ultimately met with termination, leaving me without an income and facing an uncertain future.

Now, facing unemployment and mounting medical expenses, I humbly request assistance to support my family. A contribution of $5,000 would provide invaluable stability during this challenging period. In addition, any leads on suitable employment opportunities would be deeply appreciated. My unwavering dedication and commitment to my responsibilities, coupled with my resilience in the face of adversity, make me a valuable asset to any organization. I am eager to return to work and rebuild my life, and I am confident that with your support, I can achieve this goal. And i thank you Already!
