Hi everyone, I’m new to this site and just discovered it today. I’m a 21 year old student who is currently studying abroad in Europe. I have been saving my money from my two jobs back at home in order to take night classes to be able to apply for graduate school in the hope of earning a scholarship in speech sciences and special education.. I am a straight A student and work my butt off in school to be able to hopefully make a life for myself doing therapy in a hospital setting.

Right now, I found two people to take over my apartment while I am gone. These two subletters for no reason at all left with no notice two days ago. Apparently they broke the doors of the house, haven’t fixed them or paid for any damages, and are refusing to pay May rent and I am lost because I haven’t enough saved to cover such an unexpected payment of $2500 and I’m already $475 in debt on my credit card. I can’t work here and make more money as I am American here with a student visa, and I don’t know what else to do to get out of this situation.

If anyone has been in a similar situation and would be willing to help me out, I would be forever grateful. I’m a proud person and I wouldn’t normally ask for help like this but am lost as to what to do. If I can’t get out of this I won’t be able to pay for my housing this summer, and I don’t know what I would do then.

Any help would be appreciated, from 1¢ to $1000. Ultimately I really need to cover $3000 for the rent and the house damages. I am really just trying to get through this unforeseen burden without going under completely.

I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart if you think you would be able to help me transition through this rough patch in my life right now. My life goal is to be able to help others in need through my work st a hospital and I really want to be able to say I can make that happen, and just right now I am worried that things are falling apart. Thank you so much for reading this and for any possible contribution. Thank you.

Hello. My name is Josie. I live in Chicago. About ten min from Humboldt Park. I live  with my 15 year old son in my dads second floor. My son and I have always wanted to have our own place. A place to call ours. It’s hard living in my dads house because even though I’m an adult, I’m still living at home. My dad plans on selling the house when my son graduates high school which scares me because I’m a city girl and can’t imagine myself living away from Chicago. My dad has told me on numerous occasions he hasn’t sold because of my son and I living there. I feel selfish and embarrassed because I live at home but can’t afford to move out. I’m asking for this amount of money to help my son and I get on our feet and find a place of our own. Where we live now, my dad doesn’t allow us to fix up the place to our liking. I want a place of outnumbered own so my son can have his own space where he can make the noise he wants without having to worry about waking up his grandpa or his wife. I have a failed marriage and can’t rely on anyone to help me get my own place. My son and I would truly appreciate any help we can get to help us have our place. I want to be able to come home from work after a long day and go to sleep knowing I’m falling asleep in my apt/house. I work 40+ hours a week but I still can’t manage to afford a place to rent or buy. With my check, I pay for food for us, car insurance, internet/cable so my son can do his school assignments, health insurance and student loans that I need to pay and schooling for my son. I’m sorry if I’m rambling. You just don’t know how bad I want a place of my own. I always say that I hope I have my own place before I die (I’m not dying!) so that my son can be happy and relieved and see that I did it. That I was able to get a place of my own. The day I do have our own place, I can wait to decorate it, Place a welcome mat on the front door and finally be able to invite friends and family over. The money will strictly be used to either get an apartment and use the money as security and pay for a few months rent in advance or be used as a down payment on a house. I really do have faith. I keep the faith because I know that good comes to good people. I’m just a single mother working hard trying to provide a good life for myself and my son. I don’t live a wealthy life and don’t want one. I just want to live a life where I can say that the place I live in belongs to me. I want my son to be able to have a house or apartment where he can finally invite friends over to hang out in. If you can please help my son and I out, I will greatly appreciate it to the max. My biggest dream in life is to have my own home, apartment or condo! That’s all I want. A place of my own to call home. It’s hard doing it as a single mother so any amount of money will truly HELP! Please help us have our dream place to live in because I truly hate to be living in my dads house at the age of 38. I deserve so much more and know that I work really hard. I just can’t afford to do it without this help! Thank you so so so very much in advance if you do help me. If you aren’t able to help me, please relay this to someone you think might be able to help! My PayPal is JLO726 the O is the letter. Not the number zero.

Hi, my name is LaWanda Thrower and I reside in Arbutus  MD. with my 3 children. In March of 2017, we moved into this rental with my husband, to get the kids out of Baltimore city  hoping for a chance of a better life. I currently work as an office manage / secretary at an elementary school in Baltimore City making a little less than $40,000.00 a year. He works a firefighter for Baltimore City.

I’m September of 2018, my husband and I separated due to his infidelity. This isn’t the first time, but because of the financial strain that I’d be left with, I stuck it out. There was always the hope that it would be his last time.

Well this time, I decided that I was worth more than that and I filed for a divorce. I didn’t want to have to move my kids back to Baltimore City, so I’ve been looking for another job making more money. I considered a part time job, but that would limit my time with my kids and I didn’t want to do that. I feel that it’s very important to spend quality time with your children and working a full time and part time job would not allow me to do that.

My only car had to be put in the shop for repairs last week because my daughter in law was in an accident with it and she was at fault.

Just this once, I’m seeking financial assistance with my $1700.00 rent payment which was due on April 5th. My landlord has been very patient and understanding, but I definetly don’t want to take advantage of his kindness.

If anyone is willing to assist, I’ll find some kind of way to pay you back. I can’t guarantee when I’ll be able to do so, but I will.

If possible, I’m even willing to work the payment off through any administrative assistant work that I can provide.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read my request.

Hello, my name is Hannah, I’m 26 years old… 27 in June. Whew, time just flies by the wiser you get in life. I grew up being taught that you need a great work ethic to get through life. My dad has always worked since I could remember and still does to this day. I unfortunately lost my job back in December due to ongoing health issues and life has just really sucked since then.

I really love working. I’ve been in the medical field for 6+ years now and have enjoyed every minute of it. Since I can’t hold down a full time job outside the house, I’m currently working on a Virtual Assistant website for me to provide services to business owners, CEOs, Executive, etc. I’ve also been doing Postmates and DoorDash when I’m not too sick to drive.

I’ve never done a post like this because of how I was raised. I also was told to ask for help when you need it… And I really need it. My credit score isn’t doing too hot right due to being late on payments and my phone is scheduled to be turned off. Which would be really crappy.

My passion is serving others. I went to school and got my diploma for Medical Assisting. Serving those in the medical field is extremely rewarding and also taught me a lot about dealing with cancer and hospice patients. I’ve been volunteering for hospice for 13 months and I hope I can do this for the rest of my life. I specifically work with Alzheimer/Dementia patients because my grandma passed away from the same thing. It’s difficult losing someone you love twice. Almost unbearable. They can be the sweetest and funniest though. No filter for them! :) I’ve lost my grandparents so I’m blessed to have been able to still get the elderly wisdom I so need to hear. No one should be alone at the end of their life. I’ve sat by bedside a few times watching someone who’s become important to me die. A lot of them don’t have family or they live too far. If you ever need a new perspective, try hospice.

I’m the type of person that pays it forward. I’ve been in those drive-thru lines where everyone pays a for the person behind them and I love to keep those going. We all need a little help in this life and I do my best to help those who have grief, anxiety, depression because I’ve been there, still there actually. But I’ve learned a lot and have been able to offer advice and support when I can.

I would greatly appreciate anything you can give! :)

I have been living with a mood disorder for years.  My life has been a  ride, and I have been homeless five times.  I have lived alone most of my adult life trying to handle everyday stresses, and necessities.  Even though I have siblings, they don’t understand my everyday struggles.  Also, I have found that a lot of people don’t understand how hard it is living on disability trying to keep a roof over my head, and food on the table.  I have the opportunity to find better housing, because right now for the past almost three year’s I have been living in a old trailer in a RV park in Nevada.  In the winter time it is like an freezer, and in the summer time it gets so hot that I am afraid that they will find me in here dead.

Please don’r think I’m lazy.  Over the year’s I have worked when I could, and I went to school, and earned a couple of Associate’s Degree’s.  I got into trouble in my early fifties after my mother passed away, and my family left me to my own devices trying to handle the loss.

Even though I ,made mistakes, people keep telling that there is room for forgiveness, but all I keep running into is a lot of judgement.  Anyway, I am trying to raise $10,000 so that I can pay a deposit, rent, moving expenses, and purchase furniture.

Hopefully, I can find a place to live that is decent.  I have people constantly reminding me that I am technically homeless living in a trailer, but I tell them it is a roof  over my, and keeps me out of the elements.  I continue to pray, and meditate about it, as well as having patience.

I have never reached out to anyone like this before asking for help.  So if you find it in your heart to assist me with whatever you can, it will greatly be appreciated.  Please send all donations to:  paypal.me/forgivenangel

Thank you, and I love you,

Hello friends,

My name is Krystine and I am searching for any support I can get. I have been living day to day since about November trying just to make ends meet. I suddenly lost my financial support and although I was doing well working with what I had saved, it has finally reached the point where I cannot pay rent on my own this month. With the last $400 to my name I passed on groceries and gas for this month to pay what I could of my outstanding rent payment. However, this left me still about $600 short because of the late fees and what I initallin was not able to cover on my own.

I have been trying for the past 4 months to get a job that would work with my physical needs, and have been let down over and over again. With my chronic back pain and my supraventricular tachycardia, I cannot handle long hours of standing or intensive physical labor. I am finally, finally starting to hear back from jobs that will be kind to my body and heart, after countless ignored applications. The problem is that they are reaching out to me now, after already being so late on my rent.

I fear being evicted. As a child, homelessness was always looming over me and my single mother. The only person in my life that has any sort of financial stability is my grandmother, but she was just diagnosed with breast cancer and has an upcoming surgery, and I can bring myself to bother her with this news when she’s already struggling with her own problems. This is the first time I have ever been late on rent and not had a plan or something saved away to miraculously fix the situation. So now I am here, pleading to anyone who might be in a good place and able to help, to please be my miracle and help me pay off the remaining balance of my rent. $600 is a lot and any amount at this point helps. And when I am financially stable myself, I look forward to being able to pay this generousity forward as I am able to.

Thank you for reading about my situation.

Hello, I’m Tyler. I’m 24, living on my own with dog Henry. Frankly, I can’t believe I’m even on here. I’m at my wits end & am out of options. I’ve sure done a number on my life already. Feel as though I’m just creating a bigger and deeper hole. I don’t know expect you to have pity on me. This is my fault. I’ve made horrible choices and now I’m paying for them.

So, I want to be completely honest with that being said. I’m from Michigan & we recently just had medical marijuana passed. Little did I know; I wasn’t still allowed to induce any with the job I had. (Found it has to be federally legal). So when I went to take my drug test, I failed. Which resulted in me losing my job. They Put me on some classes but they were so costly.  So I started looking around for loans to help out pay for the classes. Sooner I got the classes done the sooner I would be able to return to work. Well in result. These loans just made it so much worse.

Okay so with the job I had, I was making great money. Near to $30 an hour. Knowing I’ve been use to this pay scale for over two years. So finding a job with that pay is very difficult. I’ve been doing work on the side & and it’s almost like it’s not helping at all.  I’m way over my head. With the loans I have out, my car loan, my rent + bills. On top of just eating for me and Henry.

I’ve ran out of options. That’s why I’m here. Begging anyone to please help in anyway possible. Just to get back on my feet again. Currently have $8 to my name. With overdrawn draft fees and rent coming up real soon.

Thank you to anyone and all that have taken the time reading this. I’m hoping I was able to move you in some way. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Bless you all.

I lost my job last July after suffering a mini stroke while on the clock, because my boss was tired of my “drama” and tried to reprimand me, so I filed a complaint against her. Long story short, I was fired and since that time have not been able to be gainfully employed anywhere in my direct area, because my most recent employer not only gives me a horrifying reference when called by my prospective employers, she goes as far as to say terrible things to prevent me from getting the job. I’m not able to necessarily defend myself in those situations, so I had to come up with a different approach.  I did some serious soul searching and thinking, and came to the conclusion that I should work from home and do closed captioning. And by sheer will and determination, I have found my way to accomplishing this task. But I am just starting, and my bills never stopped. As it stands I need about $3,000 to get out of immediate, impending serious trouble. I haven’t had running water in my house for about a month, my electricity is surely about to be gone too.. the only reason I think it’s on now is because I filed for state assistance with that in November. My landlord is a saint, and that is the only reason I have a roof over my head. My parents are on disability, my credit is terrible. I have no one to ask for help and I have absolutely nowhere to turn. I can’t sleep at night, I’m having crippling anxiety attacks and a feeling of hopeless desperation that I have never before experienced in my life. I have never needed a miracle before so desperately than I have right now.. I am so close to having a job that I’m actually good at and can be appreciated for what I’m capable of, and I’m going to lose it and everything else before I get the chance. I don’t know who else to ask for help, and I hope to god this is the help I’ve been praying for. Thank you for listening.

Hello, I’m in desperate need of money right now because my life has been on sort of a downward spiral since last September. Last July I lost my job so I picked up a temporary weekend job while I drove for Uber and Lyft and delivered for Grubhub during the week until I could find another job or until I can start making money from my music. My fiance was still working but her income is only really enough for one person and I didn’t qualify for unemployment. Things were going somewhat decent for a little until the weekend job was over and shortly after, my car started having suspension problems. Those suspension problems led to me not having the ability to drive for Uber and Lyft any longer because riders were uncomfortable with the noises and harsh ride and I wasn’t making enough to fix it. That left Grubhub which was bringing in the least amount of money each week, about $115. By this time, it was the beginning of October; The entire time I was still looking for work with no luck. Then a couple weeks into the month, my fiance got hurt at work and less than a month later she ended up having 4 panic attacks in 6 days and she was diagnosed with anxiety. She ended up missing out on a lot a money because of both situations. Through everything we tried to stay positive. Towards the end of November, out of nowhere, Grubhub took away my ability to work without ever explaining it to me and to this day, they still have yet to respond to my emails or calls. The bills were really piling up at this point and we were getting very desperate. In order to avoid eviction, I spoke to my landlord and we agreed that he would allow me to take care of the landscaping for the property and help out with general maintenance in exchange for hourly rent credit. So I did as many hours as I could until the end of February, all the while still looking for work and still without any luck. By this time corporate had lost patience and said that I could no longer help and would need to make payments. On top of all that, in January my fiance and I found out that we’re expecting our first child. Since then we have spent countless hours looking for ways to get out of this hole. We’ve exhausted all of our options and anyone we know willing to help, has just as many or more issues than we do. I’ve come to the point where I’m doing music reviews for $0.06 each and Googling that I’m desperate for money. I still haven’t had any luck with finding work and we’re again on the brink of eviction and that is the last thing I want my pregnant fiance to have to deal with. We know that our future is bright and we have faith that great things await us in the future. We just need a little help right now to get us on our feet so we can continue working towards our goals. $3000 would be life changing but we need $2000 to avoid eviction and losing our power. If anyone does indeed see this and you’re willing to help, please it would truly be a life saver for us. Thank you very very much!

My girlfriend recently had to make a emergency trip out of the country to visit sick relatives. I was left with my daughter and had limited time to work for the last month because we didn’t have access to a sitter consistently. The amount I made during this time left us short. Our rent also saw an increase of $110  this month too. We have about a week left to save our car before they take it and leave us with no way to transport our kids around. Our vehicle registration is also due this month too. Just asking for $2000 that will be used 100% for our rent and vehicle. Our family would be forever grateful and would do our best to pay it forward.

One night in May, 2018 I was asleep for work when I received a phone call. “This is your assistant terminal manager. How are you doing? You’re suspended, don’t come into work tomorrow.” I was shocked and requested an explanation and received none. Two days later I received a phone call from the same man. I was terminated and when I asked for an explanation I was denied.

This injustice seemed pretty severe considering I had worked for that company for over a year and a half. I worked 11 hours a day and 6 days a week. I gave my life to that company. However California law enables an employer to do that, terminate without a reason.

I proceeded to apply for rival companies and then apply for unemployment. The employer denied my unemployment and after a court hearing I was granted benefits.

These benefits ran out in November last year however that didn’t matter because I had begun work as a temp at Fedex. I loved my job, loved the people I worked with and it all seemed to be working out until the temps were abruptly let go weeks before our expected end of term date.

I went on to do another temporary job for the agency that employed me for FedEx and they let me go after a week, without an explanation. So thus I’ve been, since December, struggling to find work, struggling to stay somewhere and find a company that will hire me as my former one did. Where I happily worked for a year and a half. I have an interview tomorrow for UPS. I am trying my best to find and keep gainful employment however my funds have slowly and steadily dwindled and I’d like to be secure knowing I can pay rent next month which is fast approaching, feed my cat and make my car payment. This is the reason I found this site in desperation and am requesting a thousand dollars. I am freaking out about my finances to put it quite simply

hello! My name is Bria Briggs and I’m 21 years old. I grew up in Washington state but I am about to move to California! I’m very excited, but I’m concerned about the cost of living down there. My rent is $900 per month and I will be looking to get a job. In the meantime I’d love to be able to make ends meet. Thank you!

Early last year. I lost my grandmother, panicked, and immediately moved into an apartment with two friends. At the time I could afford just fine, 400$ for rent, 50$ for power, 25$ for internet, and 150$ for car insurance. That left me with a nice 250$ to use for my savings, food, gas, and entertainment. I’d saved up a little bit, but honestly not nearly as much as I should have been as I just started trying to save and live on my own.

In November my employer decided not to pursue a contract renewal and as a result, I lost my primary source of income. Thankfully I had recently obtained a second job with DoorDash and savings I wasn’t completely ruined.

However, DoorDash doesn’t pay nearly enough for me to keep up with these bills, and after my first medical expense (Bad Ear infection) I ended up with nothing left. I can sort of make it through every month but hardly, and when something unexpected happens, everything goes downhill. Car repair bills were unexpected, A medical emergency was unexpected. I went from barely treading water to hardly keeping my head above it in two months.

I’m now spending every day working-60+ Hours a week just to try and survive. I’m trying to find another job, but working as many hours as I am I don’t even really have enough time to really seek them. I apply when I can, but working 12 hour days or so leaves me utterly drained and exhausted.

I’m trying my best, every second of every day to make it through and just reach the end of my lease. When my lease is up, I have a new place to go, a new job set up, and new financial balance ready for me. But, I have to finish my lease out, pay off my friends and just be finished with this stressful time of my life.

I’m doing everything I can, I’ve sold my Xbox, sold my Playstation, sold my computer. I have nothing but my phone that I need for work and a Kindle I use for reading. If I had anything to sell, credit good enough to take out a loan, or anything else I’d do it before begging online.

I feel utterly awful needing to ask strangers for money. I’ve been doing everything I can, but it’s just not getting me anywhere.

1,000$ would put me ahead. With that amount I’d be able to pay off the people I owe money too, Catch up on my bills so I’m not playing catch-up every month, and be able to run out the rest of my lease without ending up getting evicted or worrying where my next tank of gas or meal will come from

(Attached bill is my monthly Rent/Power/Insurance bill. Though it’s split 2 ways)

Hello everyone I’m Fred hope you all are doing good. I’m here asking for help paying my rent this month yes im sure I’m not the only person.

I am a hard worker I do have a full time job I work for a company that paint the roads for the state of Arkansas. It’s usually a very busy job that pays good however for the past 3 months we haven’t had any work opportunities because of the weather. Rain, cold, humidity really effects the work we can and can’t do. I’ve put money back for times in need but I’ve exhausted those funds. Because of the way our company is they didn’t leave the workers without a means of an income they did allow us to claim unemployment reduced hours which is half of our normal pay but that to has become denied by the state as over use of the system by exhausted funds with no option for extension. I felt this would happen so with a baby on the way in may I started job hunting I was able to find a new job working with HSm manufacturing RV steps. So far it’s good however I don’t get paid for another week and rents due almost past due and unfortunately they only give 3 day notice at this place. My rent was $450 but as of March it is $485. I don’t normally ask for help I haven’t much family but what I do have are limited but they help when they can as do I for them and anyone else. I need help and if you can help I promise I will pay it back or pay it forward when I get paid not a day later on that day of my first pay check. It’s like I said I’m sure I’m not the only one but I too am in need and I to understand if you can’t but thank you for reading my messages of a story.

And if you can help

Hello, I will first say that I am employed and living in San Diego.  I suffer from depression and have attempted suicide several times. The move here was VERY difficult and I am having a lot of financial trouble.  I am a single person living alone with 2 cats. I exhausted my savings in November 2018. I did not start my new job until January 2019. It does not come close to being able to pay my rent, thus, I am trying VERY hard to find a 2nd job. My rent is $2500/month. I do not have any of that for March 2019. My bank account is overdrawn by $500, so when I get paid on Friday 3/1/2019 ($1121), they will take half of that. I have $20 cash on me for gas. I am very scared and my depression is telling me to just give up because I am a failure and to kill myself. It has been over 8yrs since I last tried to harm myself and I don’t want to do that again. But, I AM a failure and am now begging for someone,  anyone to help me. I do not have any family that can help. My mom was hospitalized and is not able to assist me. I don’t know anyone here in San Diego and I am truly struggling! It took me 4 months just to find this job and now I am trying so hard to find a 2nd one so that I can take care of myself.  I need help from ANYONE who is kind enough to offer. I think I am more afraid of dying. I don’t want to die over money.  I just need some help to get me to the next step. I have a BA in Psychology and have worked my entire life. I have never been married, nor do I have children.  I have been on my own for 20yrs,  always struggled, but always found a way. I do not know what to do. Because I don’t make a lot, just started my job and recently moved , no one is even willing to give me a loan. I am lost and truly desperate. I usually find a way – Life has NEVER  been kind to me – but I am lost. I have NO money and will not even have my full check since I’m overdrafted. Please help me. I am thanking anyone who reads this and responds in advance.  May you be TRULY blessed for helping a stranger just because you have a kind heart! I am a fighter, but just need to get over this hump. THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO STOPPED TO READ THIS AND HUGS AND EXTRA SPECIAL THANKS TO ANYONE WHO IS KIND ENOUGH TO HELP ME!!!!

THANK YOU, AGAIN!

Hello, and thank you for taking time to read my story which I will try to keep brief. I am a loving mother of 3, a grateful daughter to a 92 year old mother, a former nurse, and a fortunate soul to still be alive. In January of 2017, I was a passenger in the car you see in the photo (and that’s me a summer prior to that fateful day).

     As a result of that day in January I have had 7 surgeries and left with the inability to work again like I had before. I have always been responsible for my own decisions financially and self-sufficient in all areas of my life.

But I felt helpless and completely dependent on others for the first time since childhood. I  decided to try working online, but chose the wrong company! In 6 months I lost nearly 6 figures of money I had borrowed from her when this company was shut down. I lost everything of my own and have bankrupted my mother.

I cannot say that I don’t feel regret, shame, anger, and embarrassment for being completely dependent on someone for my basic needs would be a lie.

But as my mother is increasingly needing more help now than I can give her, she will be moving into assistant care and I am trying to deal not only with constant neck pain, but severe depression and anxiety on a daily basis.

However,  I am so grateful to be alive and would forever be even more grateful for any financial assistance and donations I receive here today.

I soon will need to move out when my mother finds the appropriate residence to meet her needs. The fact is, I am looking into availability at a local homeless shelter, but finding them full to capacity most nights.

If you could find it in your heart to either donate whatever amount you are comfortable, or provide me with a  low interest loa, it would be the hope I desperately need for my future.

I am not looking for a hand out though, rather a hand up. In time, I want to be the one providing donations to others in need. Thank you again taking time to read this and for having a warm, generous heart.

I am on here as a final resort to continue living on my own. 2 and a half years ago I made the hard decision to move out of my drug addicted mothers home and moved out on my own 30 minutes away from her to try and start a new life for myself. I have been working 2 jobs and going to school part time for vet tech my dream job just to be able to provide for myself. I recently lost one of my jobs I’ve been searching for another one but haven’t had any luck just yet fingers crossed I get this one position at the local animal shelter just one more step closer to my dream but now rent,power and water bills are all 1 month behind due to be disconnected soon. I’m not eligible for government assistance due to “making over their limit” which I think is stupid because I hardly am scraping by. I have 3 dogs I rescued from high kill shelters my reasons to keep moving forward when I just want to give up. Ever since I lost my one job I’ve felt just so overwhelmed and I’m trying everything I can do to survive and not have to go back to my mother’s home because it was a very unhealthy dangerous situation there. Several men in and out of the home all night/day police coming to the home looking for fugitives. I don’t want that life and no one should want that life it’s not no way to live but it’s becoming my only resort if I can’t come up with the money for my bills. I know this is a longshot but maybe jut maybe someone will see this and help me. The total amount I need to be caught up on my bills is $650.  And if you do I GREATLY appreciate it.

Hi.

I hate asking for help. I’m the type of female who got it usually under control out here all alone, adopted parents disowned me at 18, ran away into a 3 year abusive first relationship which I  escaped from WITH  2 beautiful babies, however 6 months on the streets as a single mom age 20 soon turned into a tragedy from having an apartment, my kids and my first real job to my job stealing out of my wallet on my 21st bd to quitting to not being able to pay rent to staying at motel 6 with my kids to not being able to handle the stress the instability and the ending would have been unbearable for me if I hadn’t taken control of the situation for the time being. So  for the safety and well being of my children I allowed the courts to give the father full custody and him the choice of when I could visit the kids which he still misuses.

6 months ago a year from when I lost my children I finally got an apartment .however the struggle and the devil still played with me. My self made Jack of all trade business lost several customers due to the change in location and then my car I’ve been able to maintain all by myself for over a year. My 99 Saturn . It finally quit running for me and no one will buy it and the junk yard only will give 75 to recycle it. So there is another aspect of how I maintained the bills with just left me stranded n my apartment with rent due the 5th. My roommate that helped me with half my rent decided to pack up and not come back a week ago. however I have a couple of days to come up with 800 . While constantly active filling out job applications i hustle and save money where i can. , with transportation it was a steady 40hr work weeks. But now…my side hustle of refurbishing items I find for free along with my housecleaning and Jack of all trade business isn’t producing enough cash to even realistically think I can do it in a couple of days. I have no one that I can ask for loans. 0 credit score doesn’t help when asking banks to loan ME. No friends. No family .and I’ve checked all sorts of job websites. Applied for gigs even started doing survive junkie…and I know this time…I just can’t. Help me please. I need 800 before the 5th

Greetings:

My wife and I have been living in Philadelphia for the past 2 and a half years. We moved to the above mentioned city in hopes of living a better life. We are both american citizens. We started with both of us working. We were doing okay, but as is faith I could not continue working due to injuries suffered over the years, especially on my lower half. i was diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis that led to surgery. My osteoarthritis are on both knees, keeping me in constant pain, since I can not take pain killers because my legs get extremely swollen. My wife continued working and eventually was without work. She has had jobs here and there. Unfortunately I was diagnosed with more health issues as; obstructive sleep apnea, lost of eye sight, high blood pressure and diabetes, I have also been diagnosed with a bad right rotary cuff, being my right hand my strong hand, also I have been diagnosed that I have worn disc from my neck down to the half of my spine. This has let me into severe depression. I have applied for SSI but was denied. This has also had the outcome to me having mental issues. My wife has not been able to work freely due to having  to take care of me, because I need help getting around, making it to appointments, taking pubic transportation because I am unable to travel solo because I can space out fall asleep due to my sleep apnea and miss my stops. We have been struggling to maintain a roof over our heads due to unstable nature of our economy we have fallen behind on our rent  4 months. We are on the verge of getting evicted if we don’t pay off our past due. We are asking for $2200 our rent is $550 and as the time that this plead is being written we yet to receive our most recent receipt, included with this plead there is images of my rent receipt I thank in advance all who give us the helping hand that we so desperately need. again Thank You!

Hello, I don’t even like that I’m doing this but a friend referred me & im going to suck it up. Guys I need help. I have been without a job since November 2018 & it has been rough. Applying to jobs everyday like it is your job & not getting any calls back is really disheartening. I feel defeated. I’ve been struggling to pay my bills, eat, I can’t afford to put gas in my truck so I walk around my city. It’s been anywhere from 40 to 20 degrees out & I’m only 23 years old, but it’s starting to make my joints hurt. I think it’s from the cold, not the walking. I have a pet dog & he’s literally all I’ve got. I’ve been babysitting & doing little odd jobs to make money in between looking for a job so that I can feed my dog everyday. Atleast I can say he hasn’t gone a day without eating, thank God. He’s my “emotional support animal”, atleast that’s what my psychiatrist says. I have pretty severe bipolar disorder & I take 5 different medications that help me to seamlessly blend in with all the normal people. Without my medication, I am CRAZY. Not exaggerating here people, I can’t even justify some of my un-medicated actions to myself. I haven’t been able to afford it for about 2 months now and guys…I’m losing it. If you didn’t already know, BPD includes a bit of depression. It’s hard to even get up in the morning & go to the restroom because depression makes it a chore to care about yourself. I’ve been rationing the few pills I have left & taking them every two days, instead of everyday so I can make them last. Honestly though I am literally trying so hard not to just give up. It’s seems like no matter how hard I’m trying, nobody wants to hire me. When I graduated high school I had messed up sense of how the real world worked & I was a job hopper. Quitting jobs just because I “didn’t wanna go”. Lord I despise that version of me, she was a brat. Now here I am, 23 years old with terrible work history & no one willing to hire me. It doesn’t matter to employers that I say I’ve changed since then & I actually want to work, they look at the past regardless & base decisions off of that. I want so badly to get a job and work my way up so I can take care of me, my dog & my home. I just want peace in my life… I want to stop living like this. Some days I can’t even afford to get a roll of tissue from dollar tree & that is so embarrassing & pathetic. I come from a family of working people… people who worked for everything they’ve got. After my rebellious 18th year, I realized that life wasn’t a game of “how many times can I quit” but actually the real deal. You have to work or you won’t eat. So I got it together, got a good job, got a place, a truck a dog & peace finally. Then I messed it all up. I fell asleep at work because I got stressed out and took my anxiety medication at work. Fell asleep on the job. I’ve been unemployed since & I regret it EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. Lesson learned. I have an interview coming up soon & I hope & pray that I get that job!! I owe $355 in rent & although my landlord is very kind and understanding, I don’t want to push my luck. I cannot go another month unemployed. I refuse. I don’t even know if this will work out but if anybody is kind enough to lend a hand, I would be forever grateful. It could be $1000, it could be 5 cents. I’d be happy regardless. When I get back on my feet I hope to help someone else who’s struggling get back on track. I know how it feels to be in that position. Doing everything you know how to do to stay afloat, but you’re sinking despite your efforts. I don’t wish that struggle on anyone. Not a soul. I’ll be ok..God willing. I know somebody will be offering me a position soon & I’ll be back on my feet in no time. Anyways…sorry for my pathetic little story, I know there are people in worse situations.. If you made it down this far, thank you for taking the time to hear me out! I really appreciate it ❤️ Have A Blessed Day.

P.S. please don’t think to much of my paypal name, I didn’t make it, my cousin did it for me.

Hello my name is Jesse, I am a proud father of 4 children and 1 step-child and a beautiful fiance. This past July I lost my job of 10 years as an operator for a local well drilling company. As a family we were barely making keeping up with utilities and rent and food,clothes,etc. Then I got the news I no longer had a job, i was devastated, shocked and nervous about how we were going to make ends meet. I started receiving un-employment in August , but had already started falling behind on bills, on top of this our families 2nd vehicle was towed and impounded for not have up to date registration, i was not able to pay the 2100.00 in fees to get it out, so we lost it. By the time December rolled around I was 1 month late on my rent $1550.00, and struggling to find employment, with Christmas around the corner, my fiance and I really started to feel this burden of guilt and helplessness for not being able to give to our children for Christmas. We got through the holidays and then I received notice that my un-employment was exhausted and I was not eligible for an extension, i now had zero income , therefore Jan. Rent didn’t get paid, now I’m 3100.00 behind in rent. The last part of Jan. And the first part of Feb. Our household dealt with  the flu virus ,and man did it take it’s toll on us both physically and emotionally. During this time I was pulled over for not have current registration on my truck, while I was out getting medicine for my kids, needless to say the officer was not empathetic, even though he believed me and I received 3 violations, he revoked my license on site, for what he called being a ( negligent operator) because of the no registration,insurance and no front mud flaps. It was at this point, i was completely down and desperate thinking nothing could, or would go right for us. So here I sit today with Feb rent not paid, 4500.00 in back rent now, hoping that someone  or some organization can help my family by tomorrow come up with this 4,500.00 past due rent , because we were served a “3 day pay or quit” on wednesday the 19th of Feb, that only gives me till tomorrow to come up with the money. We have received some promise for help from family for 1,000.00 but are out of options for the balance. We DESPERATLY NEED HELP!!! I did receive good news this afternoon, i was able to land a good job, starting middle of next week, so happy about this news. If any one could help us, myself and my family would able to move forward and upwards, now that I have employment. I’m coming to you as a humble father and provider for my household, please help us if you can.

Thank you,

Jesse Benedict

Hello,I was injured at work recently and was taken off work by the doctor. I’m a Substitute Teacher so I don’t pay into state disability nor do I have disability Retirement. The injury was psychiatric so the school insurance delayed my claim for 90 days until they make a decision which I’m told will.most likely be denied. I guess they need an injury you can see and measure with an xray or blood test. There is a stigma attached to mental illness no matter if an employee was injured by another one in a horrible situation. I’m seeing a doctor but am terrified of having no income while the process takes place. A lot of people depend on me and and husband in our place and I fear my health will worsen if I weren’t able to heal or forced back to work. I just need a little time to think and take care of the household responsibilities during this time. Our 21 year old daughter is full time in college with 3.0 and has 2 children ages 1, and 3 who live with us. This is why I’m asking for help with monthly payments and groceries. I tried applying for disability with the state but teachers don’t pay into the state disability program of California. I called Human Resources and my school district doesn’t carry state disability insurance for their employees. I would of had to purchase disability insurance when I was first hired in 2005. This leaves me without any options of getting any kind of benefit payments for my injury while I’m off work and claim is on delay. This whole situation has left me battered and confined to my home indefinitely with a dreadful cashflow outlook but when I came across your website it gave me a glimmer of sunshine that maybe there was someone who cares about others this much. My emotional support has been wonderful from those around me and we are a hardworking family. We help others when we can and don’t mind helping raise our grandchildren without any help from anyone. Everything we do is for them and keeping food on the table and a roof over their heads is the most important thing. We thank you dearly for any consideration given towards our family and understand there’s always someone worse off than ourselves.

Hi everyone! My family and I relocated to Texas after my husband was hired for a new job. We thought this would be a fresh start for us and a way to get on our feet & provide our children with more stability. We were searching to increase our income and for a relief so our children wouldn’t have to worry about where they were going to lay their heads or anything else. They knew we were struggling financially, and were tired and drained from the constant moving and switching schools.

Everything was going amazingly well. Our dream had finally come true. We were back to stability. After moving into our apartment & getting everyone settled into school and life in a new environment across the country, my husband was laid off due to the shut down. Unfortunately, this caused us to not be able to pay our rent. We received our notice to vacate and was told that eviction papers were filed. We were told that we had to pay no later than Monday to stop the eviction and that late fees would be added.

As of today, we are searching for a job for myself, or to see if I can go back to the company I worked for in my hometown, and for a second job for my husband all while doing our best to come up with the rent. Our goal is to stay calm and stress free as possible to avoid putting any stress or worries on our children. We are a family of eight with three beautiful boys, and three beautiful girls. Family and friends are unable to assist. Churches and organizations are out of funds or can’t assist because we’re not in their zip code. 211 give the same numbers and none of them cannot help at this time.

It seems that a lot of people are having a hard time right now. If anyone could help our family save our home and avoid homelessness we would be thankful and highly appreciative. We are in need of $1,400. $974.00 for rent and the rest to cover late fees.

Here’s my PayPal link:

Again, my family would be more than greatful for whatever anyone may have to contribute to our Save Our Home/The Brown Family Fund.  Thank you for your time in reading and considering my request.

Sincerely,

Hello, I’m writing this letter in hope of finding some type financial assistance I’m out of options. I won’t lie or try to bullshit my way out of this situation. I’m scared. My nerves are bad and I’m angry with the world at this point in my life. I feel as if life failed me but deep inside I feel I have a lot of blame in this struggle. The past couple years life has hit me from every direction. Federal indictment, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, financial abuse, neglect, divorce, lost a house, three cars, homelessness and had to give up my animals. All because I trusted my ex husband.

I once upon a time was happily married. I felt as if I was a queen married to my king. My high school sweet heart. The man of my dreams. Tall,dark and handsome. Man this man was everything I ever wanted. He was the only man that I had eyes for. As corny as that sounds, it was the God honest truth. Every time he was around me I felt pure love in my heart, my heart would skip a beat. I’d shiver at the thought of him or one look at him I’d still melt. He was the kind of man who aimed to please at everything he do. Our kids where happy. They had everything they wanted. What ever we asked for we received. This was a man who would come home with gifts all the time, new purses, new shoes, jewelry. You know the Facebook post where the guy lays out a heart shape off rose petals and champagne and boxed chocolates and a bubble bath. Yes, that was my guy. I’d wake up to breakfast in bed and foot rubs. I had what I thought a perfect man. My kids the perfect father. He was at every school activity and every sports practice and event. No exaggeration, he never missed anything the kids had going on. He did homework and cooked. He was always good with his hands and my boys loved that. It was always dad can we build this, can you make that. He never said no. I even described to him my dream house. Guess who got her dream house. Me!!!

I worked downtown in the real estate business and my husband owned his own company. We where very financially stable. We were young loving the dream. As a youth my husband was I’m and out of the juvenile system. As an adult he went to Prison and upon his release at the age of 23 I told him I wanted stability. I wanted structure and persistence. I wanted a man who can provide and not ever risk going back to prison. I wanted him to work hard every day. I asked him what his dream was. He looked at me and said I want to build low riders ol school muscle cars. I told him than you will do just that. He opened up his own shop and he did his thing. He was the best in our city and by the time he hit 30 he branded him self. He had other people working for him. I was proud of my husband. His hard work paid off. He was allowed to spend time with his family. I was a proud wife. His freedom of owning his own company allowed his schedule to open and tend to raising our kids.

I was at work one day and my phone kept ringing and buzzing. I was receiving Facebook notifications and text saying PRAYERS, MY THOUGHTS ARE WITH YOU, HOPE EVERYTHING IS OKAY, WHER ARE YOU. I’m looking at my device like what is going on. I get up a leave my desk taking a phone call from my sister in law. Crying saying he’s dead. I’m like what who is dead? She says my husband’s name. For some reason I run outside and I’m not comprehending. I hang up the phone and walk back up stairs to my desk. My boss kept asking me what’s wrong, I probably looked like I seen a ghost. I tell him I have to go. I say to him I’m waiting for my husband to pick me. It’s four he should be here any minute. That day I didn’t drive to work. My husband wanted to take me to breakfast so he drove me. I’m standing in busy downtown waiting for my man. My phone in my hand blowing up with calls, text and notifications. All telling me my husband is dead. No, no, no, my husband is on his way to get me. He’s going to pick me up buy me my favorite tea and we have a basketball game at six. My boss comes down and says to me I just got the call your family is looking for you. Let me take you to the hospital. At that point I knew it was real. I just lost my best friend.
I get to the hospital. I see a lot of people. People I knew growing up. People I liked and some people I thought we left in our past. I see police officers and I see a doctor. I walk to them and ask them where my husband is. They tell me they have a shooting victim back there but they can’t identify who he is. No ID. I was confused. I said everyone is saying it’s my husband. They ask me to describe him so I did they took me to the back and I see my husband in this hospital bed. He wasn’t dead. He was alive via a tube. He had been shot multiple times in his chest. Close range. I didn’t know what to feel. I walk out the room. I get back to the waiting room and pure rage hits me. I see gang members. Nah, nah, nah, I’m screaming you all got my husband later up in this hospital. The police clear everyone out except his immediate family. I caused a huge scene. At this point I was going to learn my husband dark secrets.
I learned he was still selling drugs, I learned he had other woman. I learned that the reason he got shot was because he was still representing his gang connections. Him and his “homie” where riding around seen some other guys and boom shots fired. They start shooting near a school at 3:00 pm when neighborhood school age children where walking home. I read the report of a woman covering up her child as bullets where piercing her Jeep. My husband apparently was a monster. His other woman told me. Stories of him physically being abusive ton them. He had twins I never knew about and another girl pregnant. Imagine learning all these dark secrets all at once. My whole life is a lie.
If things aren’t hard enough. They where about to get worse. My daughter admitted to me her father had been specially abusing her. My whole world ended. I won’t go deep into this b because well I’m sure you understand. Little did I know prior to the shooting the feds where already watching my husband. The shooting triggered the indictment to come sooner. He was arrested after his release from the hospital. My home was seized, my cars and our business. I lost it all.

I thought I had everything. I did at one point. How was I so blind? How’ did I miss it all? Losing everything financially didn’t hurt as much. It’s my daughter, my heart and Soul. How could he hurt her? I’m still trying to recover. I’m paying my husbands debit off because the business was listed in my name. I moved to another city just to get away. I’m paying out of pocket counseling for my daughter. I’m struggling so bad. My lovely car just broke down and is sitting in front of my house because I can’t afford to fix it. This month in can’t even afford rent. My kids and I have faced many challenges. We where homeless for 6 months. Stayed in hotels. Ate microwave food. Well I was trying to get our life in order. None of our family helped. I never really had a family other then my husbands. My husband admitted to me on a recorded call that he did abuse my baby that everything was true about everything. He is now in prison and won’t be getting out anytime soon.
I’m asking for help. I’m short only $300 for my rent. My checks are being garnished. I’m still trying to recover from my past and its hard. I don’t know where else to turn. I’m out of options. Thanks for your help.

First, THANK YOU to ANYONE who is willing to help me!!!!
I’m embarrassed to ask. I suffer from depression and am having a hard time. I moved to San Diego in September 2018 and was looking for a job until I finally got one and started this month. I have a BA in Psychology and have always maintained on my own. It has just been hard and my mom has been helping me. I went through my savings and she has actually paid my rent, $2500, the last two months.

She was just hospitalized due to several health issues and stress. I don’t want to ask her for help again. I don’t have money for my rent for February. You have no idea if I’m sincere or not, but I am in debt beyond repair. I had no intention to move to San Diego and had taken a loan to pay of my debts and refinanced my car. When the opportunity came to move, I thought it was a blessing. I knew it would be hard,  but I’ve ALWAYS struggled. NOTHING ever comes easy for me, ever! I swear, I take two steps forward and get pushed five steps back. But I still try and fight!

Now, I have nothing. I have about $300 left on my Discover card, $9 on my Capitol One card and $711 in the bank. I got paid this week for my first two weeks. The check showed $1000. I am paid hourly at $18/hr and I started on 1/15/19. My rent is $2500. Doing the math, I don’t have enough for my rent or my car note due on 2/1 and my credit cards due by 2/6….plus all the other bills for the month. I just need help with my rent for this month. This will give me the other money to pay my bills. I’m looking for a 2nd job becuase my income is not enough to support me.

I am single and it is just me and my cats…who keep me alive. I say that because I have always been alone, never married, no children, lived alone, took care of myself alone and NEVER asked for help. I see asking for help as a sign of weakness. But as I write this, I’m crying because as much as I have been pushed down in life, I always manage to get up…but not this time. I don’t know what to do. I tried to get loans but my car note and the other loan prevent that. Now, I’m begging.

I know that you work hard for your money and I respect you for your willingness to help others. I just dont know what to do. I can’t fail. I feel like if I fail, I might as well die and I don’t want to die. My depression has lead me to attempt to harm myself in the past and I have fought to NEVER do that again. But now I feel like, why bother? I always lose. I’m so tired of losing at life. I’ve been doing social work my whole life and motivate others to succeed.  If they only knew what a failure I was.

I’m sorry to write this long letter,  but I hope that you are willing to help me. I’m just asking for help with my rent this month. When I find a part time job that will cover my bills and this job should cover my rent. I am alone and used to taking care of myself. But I don’t know what to do now and I will not be able to pay it by 2/1/19 or the latest 2/2/19.

My parents have sacrificed for us four as we were growing up. My mom often had holes in her underwear just so that we could have when she did not. I never knew want. I never even knew how they struggled until I got older…but I paid them back! I spoiled them! My dad died in 2015 from complications from dementia. My brother is now in a nursing home due to early onset Alzheimer’s.  My mother does not need to continue to worry about me. She is too wonderful and and at 86, needs to not worry about her youngest child.

I know this is a HUGE ask from a stranger. I am truly begging and my mom would tell you that I am very proud. I just thought I’d give this a try. My dad always said that nothing hurts a try but a failure.

I hope that you believe that I am worthy of your help. I just want to get back on my feet and not worry about whether I have money to buy real toothpaste or purchase it from the dollar store….although the dollar store has a lot of what I need! LOL

Thank you for taking the time out to read this. I do hope that you find it in your heart to please help me. I just don’t want to lose my apartment. My two cats really like this place….and so do I!

Thank you SO much for your time,

Winnie A.

Alright, hello my fellow donators. My name is Cierra and I just turned 26 on the 23rd of January. My life has been nothing but constant turmoil and abuse after mental abuse, but I started looking up and being more positive right before the end of 2018. I have always tried to be that friend you can lean on or that one soul you could trust because I truly believe that all you need is kindness in this world.

Two or three days ago I was ultimately fired from my job because of a sudden onset of an anxiety attack. I suffer from severe anxiety on a daily basis but I always, always, ALWAYS try to keep it under wraps when I am at work. I have been going through a terrible heartbreak and could not seem to hold myself together and had a crying spell included with hyperventilation and trembling hands. The manager on duty that day said that he had to let me go because I was too much for him to handle and I should not be able to work there any longer. It really bummed me out because that job, though it was only a waitressing job, I grew to like and enjoy! My coworkers became like family and I was so devastated knowing that I would’nt be working with them anymore.

So currently I am looking for a job and filling out many applications but I am extremely nervous that I’m going to not be able to pay my rent on time ( before the 5th ). I have tried to look at various methods to get this money I.e taking out a loan or trying to find government assistance but my credit is too poor and since I do not have a current income, no lender would ever risk loaning me money. I wouldn’t care about the interest fees because at the end of the day, they would still be helping me and I would be grateful for the service they supplied to me! But this is exactly why I am here today on this site. I found it through a quick google search and stumbled upon this site. I’m not sure if you are still active but I can only hope. I really do not know what else to do!

If you or someone on this site could loan me $450, or even $250 for rent then I would appreciate you so much. As I said earlier I would always repay you too! I don’t mind it. With interest!

I attached a screenshot of my bank informations so you know that I am indeed very broke and need of help. Please. I am desperate.

Howdy everyone!  My name is Anthony and I am a 26 year old student that has realized that depression has crept up on too late.  It started when all of my friends graduated and moved on with their lives; I worked to become a veterinarian but alas, I knew I wouldn’t make it.  I didn’t want to.  Pictured is my best friend in the world, Shadow.  Without her, I would not be here right now.  I would say it all began to spiral downwards with my addiction problem to adderall and Vyvanse.  I have been diagnosed clinically with ADD and was prescribed these medications to get me through school.  However, in the process I became addicted to pills to help me sleep (ambien), to relieve my anxiety (xanax), and as a result, my progress in life came to a stand still.  In fact, I would say it took a large leap backwards.  My girlfriend (at the time), the love of my life since high school no longer saw what she saw in me before.  She just saw a miserable addict that was riddled with depression and dragging her down.  The night before graduation, she walked out on me.  After 10 years of dedication and hard work, she had enough.  I am working on getting myself back to where I was physically: working out, watching my diet, getting proper amounts of sleep.  However, just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, my parents decided to have a divorce.  I couldn’t help but feel it was my fault.  Even worse, I felt like I had done a severe disservice to my younger brother who wouldn’t even understand what that meant.
I was supposed to be there for him when he needed me most.  I was supposed to be there for THEM when they needed me most.  I wasn’t.
I don’t want to turn this into a pity story; everything that has happened to me was self deserved.  I am asking for help and kindness.  My father will come visit me soon and I want to show him that I am able to get back on my feet.  However, I won’t be able to see him if I ask him for any money.  I miss everyone and truly hope that you will be able to understand my pain.  If you can help at all; I would greatly appreciate it and will remember your act of kindness forever to pass it on to the next one.
Thank you for your time.
