7kuamai’s Shelter for stray cats&dogs

adoption1.jpgadoption2.jpg

First of all, I’ve to thank one of my friend for introducing this website to me. I was asking for him to seek help to see if he can request for any donation or is anyone willing to volunteer for doing charity work because we’re lack of manpower to take care of these fur kids too.

We are a pet shelter that is not like any other pet shelter that keep pets in a cage, restricting them to move around like they want to. Whenever we see any strays on the street, we will bring them back to our shelter and make sure they’re not wounded. We’re a no-kill shelter and even if they’re sick, we will still try our best to take care of them. It’s also very rare that people will actually come and adopt because nowadays people tend to buy special breed pets because of how special are they as compared to some of the strays.

The amount of stray dogs and cats has been growing nonstop and we’re trying our best to keep these little fur kids stay healthy and not falling sick. Dogs are kept outdoor because they’re more obedient and do not run around often, of course they’ll be kept in a garden with roof to prevent them from getting wet when it’s raining(but some of them will still go out and play under the rain anyway) and the kitties have to stay indoor because they love to roam around, we once used a cage but things did not end up well ( happened once, 1 was badly injured, kind of sad to saw one of them bleed in the morning), hence we decided to not cage the dogs and cats. Right now we do not have enough food for these fur kids and taking them to vaccinate is pretty expensive which we’re not able to support both at the same time. They’re getting weaker and weaker and it really hurts when they look at you sadly and the worst feeling is when you do not know what to do to help these dogs and cats. I assume that some are abandoned by their owners, as there was once we found a box of stray little kitties inside meowing. We do not want to put down these little puppies and kitties because of our lack of supporting these fur kids.

May i humbly request for any amount of donation, it’s much appreciated. Sorry and thank you for all of the donations to everyone that have donated.

Need help for College Fees

Hi, I’m currently a second-year college student. I’m running low on funds to pay off my fees.  I’m working part-time to support myself but the pay isn’t a lot. I’ve been trying to find another better paying job, but it is not easy. My classes are not fixed; the schedule varies from week to week. Most of the jobs I found have fixed working days.

My dad has problems paying bills, so they’ve been racking up and are months overdue. I’ve been trying to pay them off for him on top of my own bills, but at this rate that I’m going I’m afraid that I won’t be able to anymore. We’ve gotten our electricity and water cut before. He is getting old and I am his only child so there’s no one else to help. I need to get that college degree to get a good paying job in order to support him in the future.

Plus, my health insurance is due for yearly payment next month. Right now, I don’t have enough money to pay for it. I’m afraid it will be cancelled if I didn’t make the payment on time. I don’t think can’t make do without it. At least in the event in which I got into an accident or something I have something to fall back to.

I’ve tried other ways to get some extra money. I’ve been doing surveys online, they don’t pay much, but at least it is something. I even tried to sell my stuff away at lows prices to get money. I’m kind of in a tight spot right now. I’m bringing packed lunch/ sandwiches to school and work in order to scrimp on a little more money, but transportation alone cost me around $80 every month. With transportation, daily necessities and bills every month, honestly, I’m not left with much savings. I’m basically living paycheck to paycheck every month.

Below is my paypal link. Would really, really appreciate if anyone, please, will be kind enough to provide some aid. Any amount, no matter how little, will be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Please, help us

Hey. My name is Kenes. I want to tell you my story about how and why I had to ask for your help.
Two weeks ago I buried my mom. She had a weak heart. She was only 61 years old.
She raised me and brother alone. She was a very kind person.
To arrange the funeral, I had to take a loan. And now, I have no choice but to ask for help.
My brother has two small children. He works on a construction site. His wife does not work and is engaged in raising children.
I work in the collection point for scrap metal. My monthly income now is 250-300 dollars (in our country, this is the average salary).
Half a year ago I was treated in a hospital with a diagnosis of depression.
My previous job was a taxi. But after being discharged from the hospital, the doctor recommended that I change my job.
Now I take medicine.
In addition to the loan, I have debts to the employer. He borrowed me money for the monument.
I do not feel strong enough to work two jobs or start a profitable business.
The cause of my illness was a road accident and a divorce from my wife due to housing problems. We could not afford to rent a good house or apartment. We lived in a crowded hostel. There was often no hot water. Very noisy and uncomfortable for a young couple. We could not have children, and this is another reason for our separation.
Now I live at work in a transport container equipped for housing. Once a week I go to the hostel to wash myself.
Because of the prescribed medication, I began to gain weight. For six months, recovered by 6 kilograms. But I eat less, I try to be economical.
I believe that I can pass this difficult period in my life and become what I was – a loving husband and a reliable brother and friend. Unfortunately, I will never be a son. Mom is not with us now.
Our biological father left us when my brother and I were children, and my mother was unemployed.
Now he is not a poor man by the standards of our country. He is corrupt and greedy. In our country, a very high level of corruption. Our father now has a wife who is 20 years younger. And she is the third after he left us and mom.
It is very difficult to live for a simple person. At the weekend we want to look at the sky, at the stars. But the reality is that we cannot straighten out due to everyday problems and stand upright free as free people. We constantly have to work so that later when we die looking at the sky without blinking eyes.
I cannot ask friends and acquaintances to help me, because they are the same as me.
My illness made me think about suicide. But I have to live to pay tribute to my mother. She always believed in justice and the right of a person to live freely and with dignity.
I openly ask you for help, even though it is not customary for us to ask strangers because it is considered bad form.
Everything can fit in three words – please help us.

Hospitalized while Volunteering Overseas – Medical Expenses – Please Help

I need to ask for help, I’ve gotten myself into a situation I thought I had planned for, and I’ve ended up in a lot of trouble and debt. My medical bills here in Thailand are already over $46,755.00 USD and I haven’t been discharged yet. I also have bills from back home in the US, although they are much less and I can get a job and pay those off when I am healed and allowed to go home.

Honestly, I planned for this volunteer trip responsibly and for a long time. I worked through University, applied and received some academic scholarships, graduated with very little debt, then worked two jobs until I paid off my student loans and saved up to go on this volunteer trip. I don’t have savings or anything after paying off my student loans and for this volunteer placement. Before arriving in Thailand to volunteer at an orphanage school, I took all the recommended vaccines, I checked in with the embassy, and I bought medical insurance which was required by the contract to volunteer. I mention this so that you can see I had planned to be personally responsible for myself and not be a burden or reckless.

So why do I have medical bills?

The insurance company will not honor their policy, they say for two reasons. They claim I was involved in a dangerous activity, as the motorbike operator who caused the accident falsely claimed I was driving the motorbike and not on the bus which is untrue. He gets a new motorbike out of doing so. My personal bag and passport could not be found at the scene of the accident and I was knocked unconscious, so I could not identify myself to the first responders. The insurance company was not notified within 48 hours, and I was unconscious longer than that, during which time medical treatments were carried out without their approval or knowledge, and that negated the policy.

Incident: That morning I was on a songthaew, and open air type of bus, on the way to the orphanage school to volunteer as an English teacher, when a motorbike ran into the back of the bus I was on. I was standing at the back with other adults so children could sit. I was thrown off the back and apparently into the motorbike, however I was knocked unconscious and I woke up in hospital.

The owner of the motorbike said I had rented his bike, and placed a claim with the police department. He took my passport from the accident scene, claiming I gave it to him when I ‘rented’ this bike. The logic here is missing – I don’t know how to ride a motorbike, I was going to teach a scheduled class so I couldn’t have used the bike that day to go anywhere even if I knew how to ride it! My personal bag with passport and wallet was ‘missing’ from the accident scene, so at first the hospital didn’t know who I was. The motorbike owner is claiming in his police report I owe him for the motorbike to the tune of 29,000 baht (about $900USD) and because I did not get the contacts from others on the bus for their account of the accident or photos from the scene as I was unconscious, I can not back up my side of events.

I don’t yet have the final bill for the hospital as I am still here, the English speaking nurse showed me the bill in Baht and did the conversion which was almost $47,000USD on Monday. I started to cry.

This was supposed to be a lovely way to give back some of my talents and teach children who didn’t have much, as I didn’t either growing up and education really gave me opportunity and community. Being at the school was amazing for me, but this accident has turned into a nightmare.

I am including a photo of me and my students, as well as a shot of some of my injuries healing and the type of songthaew (bus) I fell from. The doctors had to shave some of my hair off because of the head injury, so I’m a bit emotional about a selfie right now.

I will update this with a selfie and the final medical bill when I get it.

If you can help at all, all I can say is I would be humbly very, very grateful. Thank-you and many blessings.

Please help me a little

Call me Juan! I’m 21 years old….uh Colombian in Japan. Used to live in Australia since I was 12, but moved to Japan to study, currently in HAL TOKYO.

Alright, okay, this is my first time on this place and the only place I know that works this way. Literally found out about this through a desperate Google search as I tremble in probably a little shame. That’s just uh, how I am.

Shame because I’ve never been one to enjoy asking money of anyone, not even my parents, and while I can ask from them right now…I’ve already done too much of that in the past. I’ve always been relying on my father to give me money and money and money and I mean sure that makes sense since he IS my father, I’ve become so…upset? I dunno I just…I feel bad having to keep asking more from him when I can’t give anything back right now.

I’m in Japan right now, moved in about….1 and a half months ago? And well yeah the initial rent costs were pretty brutal on my wallet and the money I saved up the time I was working kinda got devoured by rent, transport, school, a few extra stuff that I needed to pay to the council from the last time I was here the year before, which was some….I think these were pension payments? Well whatever they were, I paid for a fair bunch of stuff, plus food, though thankfully we get breakfast and dinner in the place I’m currently in, so buying food isn’t a huge problem till uh….well, till like this week, since it’s Golden Week.

I’ve been pretty much eating as minimal as possible every day to not use up my food and the final 137 AUD (about 10,000 JPY) on my bank account. It’s brutal, yeah. And I’m gonna have to withdraw that like today or tomorrow. Probably later, since I need that money in cash so I can buy my train tickets and this will hopefully last me a month.

I’ve also applied for work, which worked out! But I needed to do some complicated weird procedure to open the bank account, which I did, buuuut the request went through like….5 days before Golden Week, and because Golden Week here means nobody works for like a whole week, then my wait for the bank account turned from 5-10 days to uh….3 weeks. Yep.

Anyways I feel like I’ve veered off the main point. The point is I want…some help please. And I don’t want to keep being a pain in the backside for my father. If there was anyone out there who could help me get…maybe like another 20,000 JPY minimum in my PayPal (uh the more the better? Like I need at least 71,000 JPY to pay for rend and then another 50,000 JPY to pay for one of the entrance fees I asked the rent guy if he can split in two monthly payments (which he was very chill about, I probably could have asked him to do that in 4 installments…I’m an idiot)), which would let me buy more food for this week and have extra money for transport, it would be more than appreciated. If you want the money back, I’ll pay it back as soon as possible. I think I might be able to…uh, sort of ask the rent guy here if he can let me pay for stuff later so when I get my first payment from work I can pay them back, have a little left over and possibly pay whomever helped me here a little back.

I just…please I need help.

I know this is probably unreasonable but…Yeah. If you want your money back later you might need to wait for a while…maybe like 3 months later since by then 90% of my paycheck wouldn’t go to rent. If not then uh….Thank you so much!

I mean if you really didn’t mind just giving me the money without me having to give it back it would be flippin’ amazing but probs won’t happen because that would be weird.

But to reiterate…..
If nobody wants to give me money. It’s okay, I won’t die. Probably.
I’ll just have to ask my father again for money which I know he will give me to help me but….I really don’t want to keep having to ask more from him. He’s already done so much for me. I don’t want to keep asking..

I dunno I feel like I’ve been truthful about this? If you want any questions answered I’ll answer…Uh dunno what else to say.

Thanks for reading my wall of text…?

In Serious Financial Situation and Needs Help Urgently

Good day everyone, I am so sorry to disturb you all; it’s just that I am in a serious need of US$ 4,500. There is a debt of US$2,000 that has to be paid before this Friday (19th of April, 2019) or I face legal actions. I live in Doha Qatar and I have some issues with my business start ups which rendered me paralyzed financially.

I cannot pay house rents and it is so bad that when I wake up every day, I don’t even know what will happen in the evening and I have been living on borrowing since last year and now, I need the US$2,000 so badly in order to cater for the money I have borrowed from people because they are already threatening me with legal actions as we speak.

To make the matter worse, because in Qatar you need a sponsor to work and live, my sponsor is also treating me badly and he refuses to renew my work permit (ID card) since last year May, without which I cannot take a any contract or even work anywhere. He shut down my business and is demanding some money before he can open it and also renews my ID card; and I don’t money since I cannot do anything without the ID Card.

Since last year I have been living with a lot of issues due to my financial hardship. I have been owing my landlord for months and he also is planning to evict me. I cannot even provide for myself anymore not to mention providing for my family.

Also, I need US$1,000 urgently to cater for my sister who is in a hospital as we speak who needs money for urgent surgery in this week. This is also serious and she has been there for weeks now without any money to pay for the surgery.

Finally, I want to pay my sponsor the US$1,500 he is demanding before he can reopen my business and also renew my ID Card so I can be able to continue my business and take contracts to earn a living.

Below is what I am asking for:

$2,000 for urgent debt to avoid legal actions before Friday 19th of April, 2019

$1,000 for my sister who needs urgent surgery in the hospital

$1,500 to pay my Sponsor so he can reopen my business and renew my Work ID Card

Total: $4,500

I know that this may seem difficult to achieve but I don’t mind any amount to help me with. I just need to get out of those debts, pay for my sister’s surgery, get my business reopened, get my ID card renewed and continue my business so I can start earning again. Thanks very much in advance.

I will appreciate it if you can assist me.

The camera and gears cost around 250,000.- THB (US$ 7,862) just a camera and two lenses a flash a tripod and some miscellaneous gears, that’s all I ask not a full fancy setup that may cost up to a million and more.

I’ve had a normal high school, but everything has changed when I went to college. Due to low financial, I had  to live in a small( ~ 30 square meters ), smelly house and pretty far from where I was studying with 4 other friends and a cat. I and another friend stay in a garret that was built in the back of the house, above the bathroom so it was a really bad place to sleep and study. I mean I was rasing to live in bad environments but it still was really hard for me. Additional on that I was the only one have the morning classes, all 4 other friends didn’t, I had to wake up early but they’d stayed up really late, making noises, eating food. I couldn’t  slept well in a long time, my grades were so bad, when I’d talked with them about that they apologized but everything will be the same next day. They were all my best friends back then so I do not wanna talk harshly, I’d kept abiding all the sleepless morning to went to school and when I was able to move out off there I already had 2 warning strikes in my uni-profile ( 3 strikes – get kicked). I thought I can fix that but no I got kicked the next semester because I can not stay focus on studying with all the depressed, tired and anxious. I was working on my mental healing but all I need now is getting a job because my family needed my support so much.

$25,000 To Clear From Bankcruptcy

IMG-20190311-WA0010_1.jpg

Hi.

This is my story. Last year, early 2018, I registered a company by using my name to rent an office lot. At first the plan was for myself to create a company of my own but there was a problem that made me to put it on hold due to my capital was not enough to run it. So the company was registered without running any business and need to pay the monthly rental for the office that i rent. I can’t afford to cancel the rental contract because i will lose all the deposits.

Then I met a friend asking me whether he can use my office and pay the rental and utilities by running his business instead of me paying it.

I am not really sure what kind of business he do but everything was smooth without problem. During June last year, I had to moved away from Johor Bahru(next to Singapore) and start living at Kuala Lumpur with my wife and my 6 years old son.

My mom still live at her house located near to Johor Bahru and the company I registered to rent the office was registered using my mom’s house address. Why not my own address? It was because I dont have a house of my own.

The major problems started last month, February 2019. I am at Kuala Lumpur, my mom called informing me there was lots of people searching for me like a debt collector and there was a police report under my name. I really made my mom scared there. I am ashamed to myself.

After I check it, that friend of mine, did not even pay the utilities bill for more than 6 months and my god the bills is around USD $25,000. I am still in shocked until now trying to think what that so called friend have done and I tried to contact him but everything goes to the drain. The tenancy contract is under my name. That is the main problem. My mistake was that everytime I checked about the monthly rental with the office owner, the rent was always paid on time. I was not even bother to check the utilities and now the burden that I need to carry myself is RM100,000.00 (usd $25,000) approximately.

I have been struggling from last year until now to stabilize my financial problems and now this sums amount of money really makes me deppressed. Even more depressed when my wife told me that she is 7 weeks pregnant.

She suggest to abort the pregnancy. But there is still some cost for doing it. I can’t even pay my car for this month. Food and Fuel are my priority now.

That is my story. I don’t know what to do right now. I’m sitting in the kitchen typing all this. I was searching for any foundations that can help me by google anything that can match and I found this website.

My mom said to me last week, when you at the top, lots of your friend will come to you without invitation but when you in deep trouble, you can’t rely on your friends because most of them will not help you. But most of the times, strangers being sent by The Creator will come by and help you.

I am begging anyone out here to help me. The more you give, the more you receive in the future. I pray for your happiness like I pray for mine.

Thank you so much in advance.

Need 40$ to buy some books urgently

Hello

I’m Asma. I’m 18 years old.

I come from a poor family and to be honest it’s annoying for me to talk about such personal thing.

Throughout the years which I was in school, I’d been always appreciated numerous times for good marks in math, physics and other school subjects.

Here where I live there’s just one main university’s entrance exam (called Konkur) which is held annually for all universities of the country. More than 950 thousand students attend in the exam. The better ranks get the chance to study in better universities and better major.

As you know Iranian money ‘Rial’ is loosing its vale day by day after applying U.S. sanctions and the life is becoming harder and harder for poor families. In order to be succeed in the exam I need to read lots of books which is becoming more expensive than ever. I need your philanthropy help. I’m not allowed to picture where I live and how much money I’m given for how much time. You’d never believe it cause it sounds impossible to most of you. Actually, It makes me feel bad to talk about them but the important thing is that being accepted in an appropriate major (field) and a good university wouldn’t be accomplished unless reading lots of training books which are beyond of what my family can afford it. I hope you understand me.

I’ll be truly thankful for any donation.

I’ll never forget you help and I promise to compensate your sincerely help one day.

Here book price is not as high as Europe or U.S. I mean I may be able to buy almost 7 books with 40$.

I don’t have Paypal cause there’s no service for Iranian from the company (under sanction). Iranian banks also are not connected with world-wide banks. The only method which seems possible is bitcoin or WesternOnion (though I’m not sure about second one)

I have no any other way to make this money. Please don’t let my life get harder than this..

Finances For EcoTourism Project

My husband and I have a plot of land in Kayakoy, Fethiye / Mugla province in Turkey. This is an ancient land with a unique history. The Lycians once lived here, then the Greeks, who were forced to leave their homes in a hurry and go on a one-way trip. And it was like this:
Until the 1920s, in the village of Kayakoy, located 8 kilometers from Fethiye, there was a mixed Greek-Turkish population. For centuries the Turks lived side by side with the Greeks, until in 1923 the countries did not exchange: ethnic Greeks drew from the territory of Turkey to their historic homeland and at the same time returned to the land of their ancestors Greek Turks. The exchange did not always go smoothly, deportations led to many human tragedies. And nowhere is this more visible than in the abandoned village of Kayakoy. A dilapidated and frightening village with stone buildings, a snake wriggling on a mountainside, was abandoned by Greek inhabitants and turned into a ghost town. Among the ruins you can see two churches with partially preserved interior decor.

Ever since Kayakoy is called a ghost town. Here they make films and hold festivals. The government is going to restore abandoned houses and rent to visitors. My husband and I also make plans for the development of eco-tourism, using the available resources on our plot of land.
Looking for finances for building several bungalows and a dining room for tourists. There are plans to open culinary courses in which visiting tourists can be trained. Also I am going to give art therapy classes for children and adults. Tourists who will come to us will take an active part in daily rural activities, such as caring for cattle – we buy several goats and sheep, as well as chickens and turkeys. Every morning, people will participate in the preparation of breakfast, scrambled fresh eggs, collect natural tomatoes, cucumbers, greens from the garden. Lunches and dinners will be held in the open air. The food is exclusively natural.

There we also plan to put a couple of gazebos where tourists will sit, read, meditate and just relax in the lap of nature. That will be fruitfully reflected in visitors. Art therapy, cooking classes, walks through the forest, which is located 50 meters from us, participation in rural activities and festivals in our village, communication with local people, including many creative people who live over there, all these things will contribute to the development of ecological tourism in our region.
For me, our project and its financing are very important. This is more than a dream. I really want to support my spouse in this project. After all, we are guided by the desire not only to open our own business, but the desire to help people. After all, coming here, they will be able to find themselves, to reveal their inner potential, to feel like a part of nature.

Please help me preventing ruining my parents’ (and my own) lives

 

Where should I start… I had never thought that a day would come when I have to ask random people for money. But it seems that today is the day, so here it comes.

I still don’t know how I should start my story. But I assume I must state my case in a way that I can convince you that I’m not just interested in easy money, or have a fraudulent intent. That I believe I can, even though it can be hindered by my insufficient English skills, since it’s not my first language.

So, I’d like to ask for your patience as well as, hopefully, a desperatedly needed financial aid that I need.

I am a 41 years old man who has been working as a software engineer for the past 20 years. As such, you may imagine I have sufficient income and savings to avoid resorting to such a desperate measure. But while it is true that I’m still earning decently (in my country’s standard), I have no savings whatsoever but only debts and my income is utterly insufficient to provide a due installment.

The reason why I have fallen to this status is because of my parents. My family was not so bad off when I was young, but we were hit hard when a nation wide financial crisis happened in 1997 and my parents have never recovered from that.

So since the early 2000s, I have supported my parents with all my income. As a result, I’m still a single and living in a cheap rented room which is slightly larger than 3 square meters (or 32 square feet). With amount of money that I’ve given them, they should pay up all debts and make a decent living.

But they have quite a skewed notion of the priorities in life, and they are a bit obssessive of things like health and security too, so I suspect they have been using up all my money on things that I find have little to improving the quality of life or are even utterly useless.

But that’s not why I’m asking for a help now. It wouldn’t be fair to ask for money so my parents can squander it. Using all my income to support my parents despite of their unwise spending habit was my own decision, so I know there is no one but myself who is responsible for it.

You may have find it difficult to understand why I have allowed my parents to destroy my financial basis, especially if you are an westerner. In many Asian cultures, parents devote their own lives to give better opportunities for their children and in turn, their children are obliged to support them when they can no longer work. My parents have done more than what other people do in that regard, so I feel I owe them for what talents I have now.

However, I have tried to reason with them whenever I can. I talked, argued, beseeched, sometimes even threathened to make them more reasonable with their spendings (which is normally at least 3-4 times more than what I spend myself). But the conclusion I reached after all these failed attempts is that there is absolutely no way to change their mind without completely ruining my relationship with them, and subsequently destroying their lives.

I simply cannot do that. So I decided I should just keep providing them most of my income until I can hopefully, make a breakthrough in my career. It seemed to work, even though I had to live quite miserably for that, until recently. And now I will tell you why I’m asking you for a help after all these years.

As I said earlier, I had frequently asked them to cut down the expenses and apparently it seemed to work because they had been asking for less money for quite a while. But it turned out that they just felt too sorry to ask for more so they began to receive credit card loans. With my being the sole source of income for my family, it’s a recipe for a disaster of course, so now the debt has snowballed to an amount that I can’t possibly anymore.

So, now I am desperately trying to control the damage until I can reach a stable balance once more. I’m trying to cut down my own expenses further – my parents promised me to do the same, but that cannot be relied on – but any such measures would take some time to help me get back to a stable financial basis again.

It’ll need about $30,000 to pay up the credit card loans and I expect I may have a chance to do so in a 6-12 months timeframe. But from the next month on, I will have to pay the installment which will put me in an about $25,000 deficit.

I don’t fancy all my financial troubles would melt away as soon as I post this on internet, nor do I suppose online panhandling to be a long term solution for them. I just hope to get some aid while I try to weather this storm without having to irreparably damage my relationship with the parents, and without destroying their sense of self esteem which would make what remains of their lives a living hell. So, I earnestly ask you for what small help you can give for that purpose.

You may wonder why I don’t simply abadon my parents, or declare that I won’t help them anymore. Or some may ask me if I still find such a life – a 41 year old bachelor living in a 3 square meters box, with little hope for future – worth living.

I can’t say I have been a great child for my parents, except for providing them all the money I have. But still I can’t stand a thought of utterly destroying their lives because of me. From my experience of knowing them for the past 40 years, either going bankrupt and homeless or damaging their relationship with me would undoubtedly ruin their lives for good.

And even if I have an intention to cut down my financial support for them, I don’t believe this is the right time to do so because it won’t save them from going homeless anyway, while it may prevent me from going bankrupt.

As to the other ‘option’, well, I’m not usually suicidal despite all the gloomy tnings happening in my life. However, I have to confess that at this point, I can’t deny that sometimes a death seems to be a respite, when I feel totally exhausted from all such tnings that I have to bear. But an irony is that I can’t even take my own life because of my parents even though they are the cause of most of my troubles in my life, for it would mean devastating them both financially and emotionally at the same time. I don’t have a religion, but whatever state I would be after I die, I don’t think I can leave this life knowing what would happen when I’m gone.

I don’t have any extravagant dream, like becoming rich or powerful. I just want to have a chance to have a family of my own, and lead my own life before I it’s too late. I still believe I could be a good husband and a father to someone, and a positive contribution to the society if I can be given a chance. Many think I’m a multi-talented person, because I can program, design, play an instrument, or write convincing social or political commentaries.

I don’t intend to boast, but I just want to say that I believe I still have video games to create, or books and songs to write before I die, which would make me believe my life wasn’t totally wasted.

I didn’t know how to start writing this but somehow I did. Now I have little idea as to how I should end it – would this be enough to convince people that I’m not a lazy, or fraudulent person who wants some easy money? Have I painted myself to be an incompetent fool whose life is totally controlled by his parents? I don’t know…

But I can clearly see that I’ve already written a wall of text which should have undoubtedly tired anyone who is still reading this. So I will just stop it here.

So, thank you for reading all these. And if you decide to help me financially, I appreciate your kindness very much and please send it via:

Just need a little boost up to start a healthy and happy life with my GF

Hello!

I’m actually from Russia, so I had to use VPN to access this website, so if it’s against the rules and gonna be discarded or removed because of that, it’s fine, I guess.

I don’t really know yet how to approach with my situation, since it’s probably different from what a regular american or European is used to with how they rent/lease/purchase an apartment, but still, I guess I’ll just describe it the way it is.

So, first of all, I have a girlfriend I really love and want to share my entire life with, but the problem is… there is a distance of 2500km between us, so it’s really problematic for us to even meet for a short period of time. We’ve still done it and seen each other several times already, but getting a life together is still a box we can’t check off our list, not on our own (and it’s been almost two years already now). (It’s the internet how we’d even met, in case anyone wondered.)

It’s the other part of the story, though, that sheds light on the reason why I have to resort to begging(for)money in the first place. So, the girl has a flat we could possibly make our home, but it has to be fully paid in order for it to become her own property. She currently lives in there with her mom, who actually has an apartment of her own but just wouldn’t move out and is totally against us being together. Now, if we manage to accumulate enough money to cover the remaining lease, it’s gonna be just the ticket for the two of us to a happy life together, and we’ve already done, like, 80% of it, but not without the girl’s father’s help, who had done a huge lot but is now on the verge of death because of cancer (he literally ignored his illness just to pay whatever money he could get for that darn lease) (the mother is of no use at all, just because she’s a b**ch, and I mean it), and without him now we can barely even cover the interest rate, which is 12% of the remaining sum per month.

The remaining sum at this point is ≈2,985$ if converted into dollars, with the interest rising by about $350 every month, which is still a lot, even although both her and me [Read more…]

Kind hearted Advertisers/Donors Needed for Sports Fundraising Event.

Dear Friend,

We are a non-profit Alma Mater Club and will be hosting our 2nd Centenary Snooker & Billiards Invitational event which will take place on 4th and 5th May 2019. We are looking to raise funds through this event.

We can’t meet our goal without the help of people/companies like you/yours. That’s why I’m writing to you. Would you consider making a donation in the form of advertisement insert in our Magazine that will be published in conjunction with the event?

We, Indoor Games section, organize and participate in snooker and billiards matches with many clubs across the country and neighboring countries every year. Our Club budget allocation to our section is limited. We provide our players (also our club members) with accessories, jerseys and trips (including transport and accommodation for outstation and oversea trips). Not all our talented young members are able to afford fully for these trips. So we organize our own event such as this to raise funds and use the funds to subsidise members who represent our club for the competitions.

By giving to this biennial Invitational event, you will be able to assist our talented members gaining exposures in snooker and billiards tournaments all around the country and sometimes oversea trip.

In appreciation of your anticipated donation, we would like to offer you a free copy of our Magazine when it is ready. Do include your mailing address so we can mail it to you!
