Financial Hardship Help

Starting Over

Where do I start? I think I’m a pretty decent person. No criminal record. I have a decent job. I worked full time evenings and weekends all through high school as my mom could barely support my 2 siblings and myself as a single parent. I was a victim of some pretty nasty stuff as a teen. I still managed to graduate high school with honors.

I tried university but it wasn’t for me. A couple accounting courses got me a decent job. Since then, every job I’ve had, I’ve always advanced quickly, exceeded expectations, and worked well above my education.

I developed a drinking problem in my mid twenties. I quit cold turkey for 3 years, and have been just fine in that regard ever since. I only drink occasionally. I do not do drugs. I was also diagnosed with cancer in my mid twenties. Luckily it was caught early, and surgery was all I needed followed by ten years of regular testing to ensure it was gone.

After that I went though a period of depression until I met my ex wife. We had a good ten years together, but it wasn’t meant to be.

We split a few years ago, and back came the crippling depression along with anxiety and panic attacks.

I still see my step kids, albeit rarely. I love them dearly, but seeing them so infrequently has torn me apart. I have a very small circle of friends that I seem to see less and less as we get older. This loneliness has led to a nasty gambling habit that has ruined me financially. I have a pile of unsecured debt, and at this time, the bills have piled up, and I have no money. Payday is next week. When I get paid I cannot cover all of the overdue bills.

I do not want to declare bankruptcy. It will ruin my standing at a job that I love. I want to pay my bills, but i do need help to get caught up and back on track.

In one week, I have an appointment with the addictions organization in my town. I need help to quit and will do whatever it takes to kick this ugly habit. I have taken a couple days off next week, and plan to also see a financial counsellor to get some much needed guidance. And as hard as it will be, I will also be seeking assistance for my depression, anxiety, and whatever other issues I need to deal with. It’s time for a fresh start.

My extended family does not have much money. The only person I can turn to is a wealthy uncle on my late father’s side that I’ve only seen twice in 20 years…. at my Grandmother’s and father’s funerals. He is the only family left on that side. It wasn’t easy, but I called him last week, laid out my situation in its entirety, and hoped he would help me out. He told me he would think it over and let me know. He has not called back so it seems he’d rather not help me out. My honesty about how I got myself in this situation probably worked against me.

Anyway, if anybody can assist in any way, I would be forever grateful. I am a good person that made bad choices, and I’ve caused myself debilitating stress, and worsening depression. I blame nobody. There are some out there that claim that depression medications can lead to excess spending problems and gambling. Maybe so, but I could have seeked out help much sooner. I still see myself as entirely responsible for my situation. This spiraled out of control quickly. I feel so stupid. Coming clean to my mother last week was not easy.

Anything I receive from this site will be repaid with donations to others when i am back on my feet. I am a good person. I help my family out in many ways whenever I can. I always give something when someone in need asks me. I help out elderly neighbors when they need assistance. I’ve been knocked to the canvas many times in my life and I’ve always gotten up. Now I’m lying on the canvas, humbly reaching out for help, hoping someone will help me get back on my feet.

I will recover. I will buy my first home, albeit in a few years. I will remarry. No gambling. No loneliness. No depression. No anxiety. No pain. Just regrets to keep me from repeating my mistakes. I will regret, but I will overcome, and not feel sorry for myself.

Thanks for reading, and if you choose to help, I am forever grateful. If possible, I will update anybody on my progress if they want to follow my journey to recovery.

The Perfect Storm

This is the story of a hardworking, middle aged couple who have been caught up in a perfect storm of illness, loss of income and an unexpected tax debt resulting in a now desperate financial storm that we cannot find our way through.

In May of 2018, I made the decision to take some time off work to care for my adult son who was struggling with severe mental health issues. My husband and I decided that we could manage with the loss of one household income for a short time. We were doing okay, then in July we were notified by CRA, that they were doing a 5 year audit of my husbands income tax returns. This resulted in an amount owing of $30,000 that we could not pay, so in September my husbands income was hit with a 30% wage garnishment from the CRA.  Within a few months, we had blown through the little savings we had, maxed out credit cards and a small line of credit trying to keep up with our monthly bills.

We are now in the midst of a storm that is threatening everything we have, everything we have worked for, including our home. For the first time in 30 years of marriage, I am trying to figure out how to get groceries, not even to mention how to pay the bills this month. I can’t believe I am on here, doing this…asking for help.

I know things will get better. My son is doing well so I’m returning to work soon. The CRA debt is down to about $10,000 so that’s good. We have done everything we can to get through this but we have now come to the end of our resources. We can see the sky getting brighter ahead, but right now, we are in the darkest part of the storm and we need a little help to get us through it.

Thank you in advance…

Drowning in dept after husbunds sudden death

Hello, my name is Sabine and I can’t believe that I have to beg for financial assistance from complete but hopefully kind strangers.
You see my best friend and husband for the last 41 years passed away February 18th of this year of pneumonia complications. He got sick and died within 48 hours. If that is not bad enough, I am drowning in debt and here is why.

We have been self-employed since 1980 buying and selling horses. He did the buying and selling and I did all the office work. We never made a lot of money but it was his passion. He was now retired but a “good” friend of his ordered a specific horse, so my husband took a loan to buy it and get it to him. Needless to say, the good friend backed out. So now I am stuck with this $ 27,135.72 loan I can’t possibly pay back and board bills for a horse I can’t get rid of. I also have his funeral bill of $ 2,700.00 on my credit card.
I am 59 years old and I can’t find a job. Another hit in the gut came from the Canadian Government informing me that I do not qualify for a widows pension or death benefits. So now I have absolutely no income.
I have sold everything there is to sell. But all the things I held so dear, is worth pennies to strangers. I reached out to friends we helped over the years but all of a sudden everybody is so busy but they will get back to me shortly….never to be heard from again. So I am completely on my own, lonely and so very desperate. My sister managed to send me enough for 2 payments but she herself is on a small pension but I am forever grateful to her.
So this is at least part of my story and I thank you for reading and hoping you find it in your heart to help me out a little.

Thank you so very much

Helpless and Scared

This is humiliating.

My name is Brendon and I’m a very private person, but desperation has led me to beg online.

The sad part about writing on here is I know that if I were on the other end I would probably ignore these posts and not help someone out but I’m hoping there are some better souls out there that can help me.

Once upon a time I was a young happy kid with a lot of potential. I had a great group of friends and a handful of opportunities to succeed in life. As time went on my life started to deteriorate.

I lost everything.

Some bad things happened in my life, which brought me unbearable pain and around 2 years ago I was diagnosed with severe depression

I’m a deep thinker and an intellectual person so it was crippling to realize that my mind just broke and turned against me.

I lost my job, my friends, and the ability to be social. All I have is my dog Django.

This year I  started seeing a psychiatrist who has updated my condition as suffering from bipolar disorder.

I’m here today to plead with you for your help. I’m ready to take my life back but I can’t do it alone. I’m requesting help to get a job and cover my expenses until I start making money again.

2600 would cover:

Phone (I got a job as a staff recruiter but it fell through when the employer discovered that I didn’t have a working phone)

Dog Medication

1 Month rent (I’ve been staying in shelters)

I feel like I’m not doing the best job at explaining how dire my situation is but I just don’t want to be long winded and lose you halfway through. I’m really afraid of what will happen to me if things don’t work out and I’m am BEGGING for anyone out there to contribute. Anything is greatly appreciated and I’m more than willing to speak with you further and discuss my situation more in depth. Please.

Thank you for your time and I wish you all the best.

Respectfully,

Brendon

Stress is killing me :(

I would like to start off by saying hello to everyone who is reading this :) My name is Krystal, my story goes like this. From a very young age I was full of anxiety and stress. I grew up in a home with and alcoholic father. Actually all his family were. So things were always pretty rough and me being the oldest child I would feel this and it made me extremely stressed out from as long as I can remember. When I was 13 years old my life changed drastically. My father passed away. It was very unexpected to me and my family. At the time my parents were split up. And my father’s family had a very nasty plan in place so they had desired they were not gonna tell my mother or us kids that he was in the hospital dying. I was leaving to go on a school trip for a week and my father was gonna give me some money and his cell phone. After a week trying to get a hold of him with no luck I went on my school trip. But I had a feeling something was wrong. I get back a week later, and my father died that night. His family did not want us to know or to see him because they wanted to take all his money. My grandmother had his this information for her to become his next of kin. My father was in the hospital for just over a week, alive and asking to see his children and his own mother denied him that on his death bed just do she could gain a couple hundred thousand dollars. That should have been ours. She robbed me of my father. So I became a really angry stressed out teenager. I couldn’t understand why my own grandmother would do that to me and my siblings. As a result of her actions my mom had to work multiple jobs just to keep us in a decent house. And what we needed. So I had to pretty much grow up and help take care of my younger brother and sister. We moved around alot. Never had a stable place to live. My grandmother made sure we had no money to buy a house or nothing. As so as she got his money which was 4 weeks after his death she took off out of province. She was to guilty and the rest of his family. Which was my  closest family left too. Leaving us with not just losing are father but all are aunts uncles cousins grandmother. All because of money. It was a really hard thing to go threw but my mother made sure we had what we needed. Now as I progress threw life in finding no sort of break in stress for me. I have live a simple life. I don’t ask for much I just don’t want to struggle anymore. I’m 30 years old now and I have never felt a stress free day in more than half my life. I am constantly worrying about something and I’m slowly realizing what kind of effect this has had on my health and just my ability to live and enjoy life. I’m not asking for much but I’m in need of help. I’m a mother of a 3 year old who is working and trying to go to school so my future is brighter. But I’m currently in desperate times and looking for a kind soul who would be able to help me just live stress free foe a bit. I want to enjoy life for once and show my daughter how fun it can be :) I have tried to but it’s so hard when every day is a constant struggle just to even get out of bed. I appreciate everyone who stops to read some of my story. Any information you would like to know just ask. I’m looking for $20,000 to $50,000 to help restart an awesome life for me and my daughter but anything is appreciated. I look forward to hearing from you thank you very much and god bless you all :)

Financial Help for young family of 4

Hi There,

I have been searching for some way to receive financial assistance for my family. We are a young family of 4 Ontario, Canada. We are unable to ask for help from our family as some have passed away and others are on a limited retirement income. My Grandparents raised me (who have since passed) and my spouses Father passed away from cancer (20 yrs ago) at an early age. His mother has struggled to make ends meet and raise her children.

We are struggling, and I can provide proof if requested. I want more for my young boys. I want to get out of debt and start saving for their future (education and something to leave them for their future).

After having our 2nd son, I decided to go back to school for better employment opportunities. This just put us in more debt. We started a home addition of a third bedroom so our boys could each have their own room, and we have done this all on our own as we couldn’t afford contractors. This has been a work in progress for over 3 years and still not complete. This has put us in a lot of debt that we are struggling to maintain. I can provide proof of our personal debts from the student loans to our bedroom addition. It is approx $90K+. This does not include our mortgage, home utilities, repairing our vehicles with worn out parts and rust, etc. We are plugging away but with our lower incomes (my spouse just got full-time in his maintenance job after 10 years of working there on a part time basis, waiting for someone to retire so he could move up) we can’t seem to ever see an end insight. We can’t even afford to get married.  I would someday like to take my children, while they are young, to Walt Disney World.

With all the rain we had at the end of summer, our backroom in the basement flooded twice. We found where the water had tunneled in between where the old foundation meets the new foundation addition. We had to pay a contractor to help us fix it and slope our laneway away from the house too (backhoe hourly rate, gravel, install a drain pipe, etc.). This has set us back even more now! It just never seems to end. We keep trying to pay down our debt and something goes wrong only to increase what we owe even more, and slow us down from finishing this addition. I even cashed out what little mutual fund investments I did have, just to pay off a visa card that I had to use while I was in college. Then Christmas came, and we don’t have any extra money sitting around for gifts for our boys, so we buy a few things for them and get in more debt so that they may get some presents from Santa.

I am at my lowest point right now asking for help online, but I don’t know what else to do. This email may not be the best way to ask for help from someone, and I am sorry if this isn’t a request I should be sending you.

 We just don’t know what else to do. I am just praying for a miracle…from someone, so that we don’t lose everything we have worked hard for.  Now with the Doug Ford Government making cuts, we may lose everything (cuts to my spouses job).

We really need someone to help us get back on track.  Even if someone could help us with our student loans so we have one less monthly payment to make.  Thank you for taking time to read our request.  Here is our link, paypal.me/becky9911

Help a fellow Canadian

Hi,

I’m James and I’m from Canada. The land of Maple syrup, Moose, Beaver, Poutine, Tim Horton and Hockey. I love this place with all my heart.

I’ll be honest,

I’ve made mistakes in my young life and I’m realizing it more and more.  One of my worst mistakes was to accept a Credit Card from the stands in the malls at 21.

Results: I’m 29 and currently in debt of over 6k. A mix of school and of a mix of purchasing things at 21.
Imagine: Finishing high school at 17, go to college for a few years, paying more and more to then realize that not only you’re in debt but you’re also not sure if that’s what you want for your future.

Common issue nowadays for a lot of people especially since it’s hard to get a bit of guidance.  At least now, I’m starting to see that I want to be in a workplace where I can help people with technology.

I’ve been failing in life for a long period of time and I’ve never been lucky but I’m still trying the best that I can to make things better. I just want one win. Proof that I’m not lucky: My tax return would have saved me but apparently there’s a problem with my records at the government. Things aren’t matching. Even voluntary people who do your taxes tried and they don’t know either. First time happening to me and I’ve always filed my taxes.

I really don’t know what’s going to happen but one thing I know is that it’s not easy.

Even though I’m working hard, it’s pretty much putting a toll on me. Barely making ends of months.

$6000 is a lot and I’m ashamed of myself. I’m not the kind of person who asks people for help. I would rather handle things myself but this time, it’s really a lot to digest.

You who are reading my message. I know we don’t know each other and I appreciate you for being here. Typing everything on my mind right now released a bit of weight on my shoulders and made me realize that’s it’s going to be a hard fight.  If I manage to get that amount to zero, I will remove my post so that people in need here get their opportunity and make a video to show my appreciation if demanded.

Thank you.

CAN’T AFFORD TO EAT URGENT HELP NEEDED

Hi, my name is Arielle Mueller. I am 22 and I love in Toronto, Ontario with my girlfriend. We are students trying to make ends meet and have food on the table at the end of the night.
I am sending this email at a desperate time of need. I have found myself in a stitch for cash. I’m currently working down credit card debt of $5400, I know it doesn’t seem like much but as a student who has to pay for her own car, groceries & education. It is. My girlfriend pays for the apartment and cant help where she can but we have to split the expenses and take responsibility for our own bills while still trying to work together.
I’m writing because I’ve finally landed myself a part time job and have been able to barely keep up with my bills but I don’t have enough money to pay for groceries or make payments on my credit card debt. I think it’s important to mention that because I’m working hard to become financially independent all over again. This way if you choose to donate you are aware of the fact that I am not just sitting around asking for money without working to better myself.
About a year ago I was working at an accounting firm and they found out that I was returning to school so they laid me off. I was making about $1,200 every 2 weeks, which was supporting me and my girlfriend. (We live together in a small studio apartment) ever since then, I haven’t been able to find work to make nearly that much. I try to work renovations and painting on the side while I work at a Tim Hortons to hopefully cover my car and insurance for the month. What I’m asking for is some help with the debt & money for food.
I just recently got in contact with my bank, TD bank, & showed them that a I have a job & am in a bit of a financial rut because the bills & the interest in the credit card is crippling. They granted me 2 months without interest so any payments I’m able to make on the credit card will go to the balance instead of to interest. This is why I need a big sum so that I can make it count. So that I can get out of this debt that I should have never accumulated in the first place.
The debt came after I lost the job at the accounting firm, things got expensive & I didn’t think I would be doing it for long. Just a couple months & I’ll find something else. Something else came too late & now here I am. I feel stuck, it’s affecting my relationship that was once a bright loving place for me to confide. I truly believe that if you can help me, I will be able to turn my life back around. I just need a bit of help…
Thank you so much for reading my story. I hope you can find it in your heart to help. Please send me an email for the files to show my financial situation, I have my bank statement, credit statement and student loan amount available for anyone who considers donating….

Canadian Composer requests your help for studio upgrade & move

Hi Everyone,

I am a musician who is looking to move soon to a private home and build a new music studio. I have a full time job but am finding it increasingly difficult to buy new equipment with the rising cost of rent and living expenses.

I have steady employment but am at the cap of my salary and raises have been frozen as is hiring. I’m struggling to save up money not only to pay off the equipment I’ve already purchased (I needed a new computer and software upgrades). I’m also taking courses part time to help further my education.

I am an aspiring composer who is trying to break into the film industry but finding it really difficult. Our province is still recovering from a recession and with the rising costs of rent, I’m having a difficult time justifying keeping up with music. The reason that I’m moving is that the condo building I’m in is very noisy and I’m unable to soundproof for proper recording. I’d love to move into a private home so I can record more with a real piano.

Streaming websites have made it nearly impossible for musicians to earn money from music. This is my passion. I have invested nearly $20,000 into my career for the last decade but with very little return. Marketing fees alone on facebook cost $1500.00 over the last few years and even though I have over 9,000 fans, with the way Facebook works now very little people see my posts. Marketing, publishing and even mastering final products cost so much money, it’s impossible to break even.

Musicians make music because they love it. And it is what I love. I just need some help to continue making more of it!

Every dollar will help :)) Please consider supporting donating.

My wish list:

Moving costs: $1500.00

New piano: $2000.00

Software upgrades: $500.00 (Cubase)

Studio monitors or professional headphones: $300.00

Trip to Nashville to stay at the SOCAN house and meet industry professionals:

$2500

Or buy me dinner: $40.00

Years of low self esteem

If you can help make my lifetime wish come true I would be forever grateful ❤️

My whole life I have been bullied by having a very large wide nose. Even by my own family. They always called me names like pig or that bears lived in my nose. I would always cry when I’d sleep and honestly i would never wish this on anyone. I have always hated my nose since and it is large and asymmetrical- (my face is super asymmetrical with one of my eyes lower than the other as well )  I don’t even like smiling in pictures because it gets even wider when I smile. Maybe a lot of you don’t know what this feels like but it’s like this awful constant hate of your own face that makes you completely miserable. I feel like there’s this huge thing on my face that’s the first to be seen by anyone. Being a girl is extra hard because there are so many beautiful girls on the internet that get so much love and attention from everyone and isn’t made fun of or has a need to hide away from people and things. I just don’t feel like my true self with this ugly nose. Every day when I look in a mirror I think wow I’m so ugly! I don’t even know why I bother with makeup because it doesn’t make a difference.. I just want to wake up one day and feel special

I have checked the costs of a new nose and they’re approximately 8-12k here in Canada. I am currently working and a student but money I get I pay my rent and school bills with :/ That in it self is a huge struggle for me.. I  won’t ever be able to make enough for something so luxurious as a nose job. I’m pretty poor and. I am begging if you are wealthy or have extra cash to spare I would forever be grateful to you and your amazing heart. Thank you so much for reading my story. Who ever you are, I wish the best for you!

One more chance at life

I was born about a hundred years ago in 1972 to world war two immigrants in Canada. I was the second last of a family of eight.

 

Life was quite a struggle for me.  We starved on a regular basis. My parents were religious and once I had gotten old enough to become self aware, I realized that I was not and never could be. I was 10. Once I announced this, shit hit the fan. My mother began a campaign of trying to beat her god into me but no matter how many bruises and broken bones she gave, it wasn’t going to happen. All she ever succeeded in doing was causing me to hate her very much. The christian private school I was forced into became a nightmare for me. At the end of the sixth grade, I couldn’t take it any more and ran away.  I was fortunate to have made some neighborhood friends  and the parents of one took me in. Then I began working.

 

Went from one basic labour job to the next. Each paid just enough to stay alive. One day when I was 29, I had a random chance meeting with a Korean man. His job was to find Canadians to send to South Korea to teach English.

 

I took a chance and flew to SK. After a year of struggle, I met a lady and we fell in love and got married. Together we opened an English school. After 12 years there, we sold out and moved to Canada. We had been struggling with the marriage for years and after we moved, it fell apart and we got divorced. She got everything.

 

Not qualified for any work in Canada except the most basic labour jobs. Decided to take a chance and searched for English teacher work in China. Life was a  struggle to live in the meantime. I had two credit cards and I maxed them out both before and after I found a job and moved here. Unfortunately to be an English teacher, you are supposed to have a degree in anything. I did not. The Chinese people are terrified of their government so I struggled to find work. Two years later things were starting to look up. Suddenly I was arrested. I was thrown into a prison and tortured for 35 days while they investigated me. Then they decided there was no point in charging me and they deported me to Canada.

 

I was in bad shape when I returned. Credit cards maxed out and no money saved meant my only option was to move in with my mother.  Now, I’m being tortured here by her and collection agencies calling me for money. I’m trapped and slowly losing my mind. Also, I was told my mother will move to an end of life home soon as she is 83 and in poor health. My dad died ten years ago. This means I will be homeless and deeply in debt and I will have to find a piece of sidewlk in the big city to beg for change.

 

I have been investigating Brazil. I think I will like to go there and try for a third and final time. I am hoping that someone will be charitable enough to help me  buy a ticket and survive the first few months there.

 

I began writing an autobiography on a site called Reddit. To read it, got to https://www.reddit.com/r/Justmemaybeyoutoo/ and

my paypal is https//www.paypal.me/hi1im2shy3. Thank you for your time.

My life is falling apart

FB_IMG_1525928422338.jpgJanuary 2018 is when I’d say my life started falling apart, I had everything going, living on my own, engaged, had a beautiful dog and a wonderful family, I had just finished my College degree and was writing my registration exam that month. Fast forward, I ended up failing my exam and was heart broken, I am going in for my third attempt in May this year, I’ve been fighting to get my life back on track, but I feel like I’m drowning, nothing is going right. My mother passed away in May of 2018 suddenly, she had been struggling with Cancer since 2012, she was a single mother to me and my younger siblings who were 13 and 14 at the time of her death. I wrote my second attempt exam 2 weeks after she had passed away and unfortunately failed by 7 points. My mother paid for that exam and was in debt because of it. In August I got a really good job in the medical field and I loved it, things were looking up for me, except for the fact that my fiance and I split up. My depression starting progressing rapidly but at least I was making good money and was able to support myself and our dog. November came along and long story short my poor dog lost his life due to a bowel obstruction, it was not expected and I lost all my savings trying to help him. In December I was feeling hopeless and defeated, I decided to move in to my fathers house so I could focus on saving money and so I wasn’t alone. In January of this year I was laid off from my job and left feeling hopeless, if I didn’t already want to lose my life before, this was the cherry on top. I’m trying very hard to find another job whilst studying as hard as I can so I can pass this exam and get somewhere in life, my bills are piling up, my cellphone will be shut off any day, I just feel like nothing has been working in my favor and I’m hopeless. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am running out of options, I just need that push to get me back on my feet again.

In constant pain..need help to get dentures.. please

Hello…

I am trying desperately to find some  help for my best friend Lori. She needs dentures badly.. she’s  in alot of pain… She’s on CPP (a pension) and neither of us brings in much money but we have been getting by..she’s been whining about her teeth for a long while..pretty much has to live on pain pills and fill her mouth with that anbesol stuff..adult version of baby teething pain gel..and most days she can’t eat anything but soup..I didn’t really understand the extent of it because she never smiles anymore out of self consciousness.. when I met her she had beautiful perfect teeth tok such good care of them and pride…and she was told by dentist that she was brushing them too much..was wearing off the enamel..plus she had really bad gingivitis..it was a different name though but a worse version of gingivitis..some lost fillings..a few tooth extractions at the back…and her gums were receding.. they’ve just progressively gotten worse and worse and it’s at the breaking point now..so is she.. so anyhow she sucked it up and lived through the pain but it’s getting unbearable and the other day she opened her mouth wide to show me something and oh my god. Her gums have all raised like a dang skull..and she has many actual loose teeth. Before she had it in her head she wanted implants but they are way too costly so she’s finally accepted that she needs Dentures. Literally all her teeth have to be removed and get dentures. Which will of course allow her not only to eat again and be pain free but to smile again..so we called around to every dentist in town and Ottawa and nobody will take payments. Even tried dentacard financing and they said she needs a cosigner..I don’t qualify.. and there is nobody else  we can ask…wishheck Ohip covered that stuff..CPP/Odsp will cover the tooth pulling up to a certain amount but not the dentures..she would rather kill herself than walk around with a mouth full of gums and no teeth. Shes only 54..She even said she’d wear second hand dentures but where the heck do you get those?? Plus they need to be fitted.. I searched the web for discount dentures…student teaching clinics..but can’t find anything to help her so I searched for a site like this where hopefully I can get some donation help and get her the help she needs. She’s in so much pain daily both physically and mentally and she  doesn’t deserve this…and could be fixed easily but the money just isn’t there. Nobody will take payments..just full pay..she can’t do that. So I’m here to plead her case..I anyone out there can help with this it would be hugely appreciated and we always always pay it forward. Please..please help..I just want to see her smile again..

Mom can’t do it any longer

Me and my mom have been through so many rough things together, like my abusive father in the past, and how we both deal with depression and anxiety and things are very hard considering we struggle.

because she had my brother at the age of 16 she worked so hard to get the career as the lawyer she wanted, but didn’t have enough money to make it through university.

She works at a company that deals with weather and landscaping for about 10 years, and she struggles with addiction due to her PTSD. She works so hard that sometimes she has physical and mental breakdowns.

And right now she is in the midst of a mental breakdown; she has nightmares and can’t sleep, she’s vomiting and can’t keep down food, she has diarrhea and sometimes pees the bed because she’s so anxious. She self medicates and it’s much more than what I’m saying; her job is her life and her life is her job.

She can’t afford to leave because she has a position she has been working for for so long and won’t make as much money as she does now; but we make enough to get by, but barely.

she has done everything for me; she pays for a house, school, and even my meds which cost up to 300$ a month. her body is breaking down on her, and she can’t do it anymore.

I’m older now; almost graduating highschool, and I can’t bear to see her like this. I want to help her financially, and I have a job but I can’t make nearly enough to lessen the pressures of her job, and that’s why I’m asking for your help.

It’s about time to help her too, and I want to help her so badly but don’t have the means too.

i appreciate you taking the time to read this and/or donate 💕

Hardworking female who just made a big life decision to move to a new city and got a new job

Hello all who are reading this..  I am a 27 year old female who is a power engineer and I have worked extremely hard to get to where I am, that being said I’ve never so much as asked my parents for any help and paid for my student loans last year after working 40 days straight 12 hour shifts. I’ve been out in the cold – 35 for over 4 hours working and helping solve plant issues like frozen flares. I’ve always have been super independent and I’m struggling right now this month has been quite difficult for me as I have a trailer back in Alberta and have payments on it and made a life decision to move to Vancouver my company did not give me relocation allowance so everything was out of pocket including giving my dad $800 to help me move and paying for a Uhaul and then because I have a husky getting a place I could rent with him giving a large damage deposit for myself and him. I moved here to be close to family and friends in Vancouver and it is extremely difficult this month as my company pushed back my starting date so I haven’t gotten a cheque in a while and have to pay off my credit card and make car payments and transfer my insurance and drivers license over and even my education ticket everything is adding up. Even my mail forwarding was $75 for 4 months and it’s sad because I wouldn’t ask anyone for help well because my family isn’t that well off right now either to help me. I’m a little bit saddened by how hard I work and I took architectural technology before even and got scholarships but I wanted to go into power engineering but my mom wouldn’t allow me at the time because girls don’t go into power is what she said. I would just really appreciate a little bit of assistance for this month to get me through this financially tough time. Thank you much for any help available. I’ve been trying to sign up for any contest available hoping someway I can have a little bit of help. As you can see in my picture I owe more on my visa then I currently have in my account and don’t know how I am going to get through the month. 20190221_195300.jpg

Every man’s battle

Hello potential sponsor, I’m a married man and father who has suffered loss due to “mental illness”. I was admitted in 2010 for 55days after 5yrs welding and put on powerful medications for “schizoaffective disorder/ anxiety/ depression” in fall 2018 I have managed to quit all my meds and I am trying to return to work. Currently hold part time job but merely enough to get by.

Years ago, before my illness I was welding and making lots of money. I never wasted money, but I grew up passionate about the bible and helping others, so I donated lots of my savings to those in need. Thus, I did not plan and have any savings for a situation like this.

I grew up around pornographic material (as does any young person growing up as our society is totally saturated in it) and it has been an on and off struggle for me for many years. I have reviewed many methods of staying pure and discussed with my close friends, but I continue to struggle. After reading few a few statistics on the internet I learned that about half the male population in North America view pornography at least once a month and about 20% view it daily. As a Christian I was taught to avoid these material… but then I’d have to go live in the mountains and become a monk I suppose.

I continued to research for an effective solution that would offer consistent reliable results. Then in fall of 2017 I stumbled upon male chastity devices. I thought these were a mid-evil myth, but they are abundant on the internet. I learned though that the only functional devices are either a full belt (Neosteel chastity systems, chastity steel and fancy steel) or custom cages (rigidsteel or lustlock). Ultimately having a few devices would be ideal as cages are more functional for when I’m laboring/ welding but a full belt is best for when at home and the struggle is harder as they are much more restrictive, unfortunately they aren’t. There are other men I have read about who use these devices to practice self-discipline. I abhor pornography as any addict would despise their vice, yet the struggle continues.

After endless researching I did purchase a handful of cheap plastic models to test and found even these to be very helpful but they can be prone to breaking and really not designed for serious long-term use

Now I’m stuck, my wife seems to think a chastity device is nonsense as there are “other men” who fight this battle successfully and consistently by willpower. She is not willing to spend money we really don’t have on something like this when we struggle with daily needs. We have no investments and other than two older vehicles I have no assets, we live in a basement apartment suite and have used the foodbank to survive in the past.

I still long to be able to give back to society. I find as do some men that pornography often increases anxiety as I have a crippling social anxiety when I am around groups of people. This is also one of the reasons I’m having trouble returning to a full-time job.

I’d really like to start with a Chastitysteelbelt $700 a Neosteel belt $1500 . A lustlock cage for work days etc. approx. $ 400 and a rigid steel cage $400. These prices include shipping, handling and measuring kit. Most people who use chastity fulltime find that it takes a few tries to find a belt that works. Neosteel is supposed to be top quality but not very adjustable unlike a Chastity steel belt which is adjustable but not built as well for long term wear.

please help if your able I know I’m not special but I do need my MEDICATION and its not covered.

Student out of work (medical reasons). Running very low on funds:( Would you mind helping me?

Hello:) I hope you are doing well.

My name is Alannah, I’m a 4th-year university student in Canada (age between 20-24). I came across this site and was very grateful it exists… This past year has been the most difficult of my life. Even though these things are quite personal, I guess I’ll go ahead and share everything with you:)

Before I tell my story, I want to share a little about who I am and what my life looks like:) I’ve lived with my mom (single mom) and my brother since the age of 5. We were never completely broke, but we were never thriving either. But I was always content:) To be upfront but not too specific, my mom makes well under 35-40 thousand a year. This meant that we were blessed in many ways with love, but did not (and still don’t) have the same privileges as others do. No fun family vacations to Disneyland, Florida etc., no camp. No going to the mall with my parents to get me 100$-200$ worth of clothes, or other things.

I remember a time when we had little to eat and our house at the time had many problems that we couldn’t afford to fix right away. During that time we had to take cold showers (which drastically improved the time I took in the shower ;) 40 mins down to 5 mins!! Amazing! lol). At that point, my mom was working 3 jobs to made ends meet. We’ve had little struggles like that. I started working before the age of 15, wanting to buy my own things because there were many many things I couldn’t have. Since the age of 15 (when I could be paid minimum wage), I’ve been buying my own clothes, furniture for my room (I remember my first big purchase was a queen mattress for 1000$… it was an amazing feeling!!), school supplies (my mom kindly helped me by buying the basics), cell phones, cell phone plans, laptops for university, my first car (a rusty 2006 Kia for 2000$ lol!! But I love it! :) ) and all my tuition fees for university (which is the source of my large amount of debt lol… but I’m not too worried because once I get a job it can be paid back…! Basically what I’m saying here is that I’ve never “had it made”, you know? Don’t get me wrong, I am very happy with my life:) But it’s just to give you an idea of my family’s financial situation throughout my life. So here we go with my story!

  1. Almost a year ago, I found out my partner wasn’t being loyal to me… I don’t know if this has ever happened to you, but if it has, you understand… It broke me as a person. My life has gone downhill from that moment.
  2. About 4.5 months ago, I was hospitalized for mental health problems such as depression and suicide (things like cutting, etc…). I was put on 3 kinds of medications. Since that time, I have not been working. I had 2 jobs as a waitress before this happened. I was strongly advised not go back to work (along with a full course load) in order to prevent a relapse.
  3. Sometimes, life throws everything at you at once to perhaps make you stronger… Because while I was in hospital, I learned that my older brother has brain cancer (tumor in his brain). It’s called low-grade type 2 glioma, to be exact. I worry about him every single day…
  4. During my most recent Christmas break, things were going much better with my depression. Much much better:) I started my new semester in January back on my feet and was ready to take on the world!:) I was planning to start working again. In my program, we must take some sports for school credit. I took skiing, and it involved going on a ski trip during the start of the semester! I was so excited because skiing is one of my favorite sports. However, two days before our return to school, I was night skiing with my friends. Next thing I knew, I collided VERY hard with another skier, I ended up on my back and all I could do was try to breathe. My head, neck and ribs were hurting badly. I was quickly able to breathe normally, but I couldn’t get up or sit up. I was then taken by ambulance to the hospital. The event is still pretty fuzzy. I was told I have a concussion and whiplash. I tried going to my lectures after resting for a few days. But as hard as I tried, my symptoms were so bad I could not keep up with school… I went to see another doctor in my city. He said I absolutely shouldn’t be in school for the next 2 weeks.  And here I am now, typing this (even though it’s making my eyes and head ache quite badly… lol) but I hope it’s worth it. Obviously, this means I can’t go back to work like I had planned. My funds are getting very low, I have bills to pay and I’m getting quite scared… I want to recover completely from my concussion, but I can’t be broke either… so I guess I’ll have no choice but to go back to work soon if I don’t get better quickly… I’m quite desperate… I even checked out a sugar daddy website!!! But nooooo thank you, that is not for me…….. 

If you’ve read this far, thank you very much:) I know people can say absolutely anything on these sites, so if you’re interested in helping me out, I have all medical documents to support my story, if you need.

I want and plan to be a doctor (most likely a naturopath). I will push and persevere until I achieve this dream. I absolutely love helping others, it gives me this amazing thrill of joy and happiness. I try to hand out Care Kits to the homeless in my city as much as I can afford. When I get to say hello to them and give them a kit, sometimes it feels like my heart is going to explode with happiness!! I want to make a decent amount of money later on, in order to help those who need it the most. (So if you happen to be deciding between helping me or helping someone who is homeless, please help the person who is homeless!!!)

 

Thank you again for reading my story:) I wish you lots of love and happiness.

Kindest regards,

Alannah

Need money to renew my drivers license

Hey!

This really bombs. Every time I turn around someone is trying to charge for some stupid fee… currently I’m on EI as I am a seasonal farm hand. And I just got a totally unexpected bill in the mail to renew my license, after I just paid 100 dollars last month to do my road test for my full drivers license.. I was under the impression that it was going to cost me 18$ to get a new card but it turns out it costs 108$… it’s impossible to get ahead. There’s no work where I live and I’m trying to business plan to start my own farm in the spring but do you know it costs 60$ just to tell the Canadian government you are starting a business? How is someone supposed to keep up with all these stupid fees while trying to be a farmer and grow good food… drowning in fees.  I’m hoping just to get 168$ to cover these two unexpected costs because I really don’t have extra money laying around… I live very frugally and use my pay only for my necessities including my student loan and my car payments and insurance. I just feel like as a farmer I work really hard and no one really respects the importance of farmers in Canada… I don’t think it’s fair that farmers feed the whole country yet don’t make enough wage to barely pay for a car :(

 

if you love your farmers and see the importance of young agrarians please help a lass out so I can keep my drivers license and register my business. I’d be very appreciative and it would definitely restore my faith in humans. Thank-you. If you can’t donate to me, please at least buy local produce in the summer when you can.

Single Father Loses to Scammers.

People have probably heard a story like mine a thousand times.

4 tears ago I was a travelling private investigator. Well I was working my wife of 9 years cheated on me. I gought to save the marriage but she would have none of it.

Couple months later she kicked me out of the house.

Having no option  I continued that work for 3 years.

In 2018 I left that job because I only saw my boys about 10 days in 2017.

In 2018 I started a new new job but it did not pay as much. I got to see my boys a little more but between child support and my ex’s demand for $100 everytime she brings me the boys I was barely keeping my head above water.

Then in December in desperation to get more money I “invested” in a couple forex traders. They said invest $500-1000 and within a week you will receive $5000-10000 back.

I should have known it was a scam, but I just wanted a good Christmas for my three boys.

When the payment came up I was told that I have to pay lawyers fees or commission on the profits before they would be released.

Needless to say I never received the money. Now a month later I am now struggling with the payday loans that I took out to “invest” with these scammers. My rent for January has not been paid and it is almost February.

I am asking for help to get rid of these loans and yo get caught up on my bills. Any help is appreciated because the sooner I can do that the sooner I can see my boys again because as of right now I could not pay my ex’s transportation fee or even feed my boys.

Attached is a picture of me and my boys and a screenshot of the message from one of the scammers.

Anything That Helps

Hi there,

 

I don’t typically ask for help and frankly, I feel this embarrassment and shame since a living situation happened and I like to get myself back on my feet. For those of you who is taking their time to read, first of all thank you regardless for the consideration… it really does mean a lot. My sister and I have been looking for a place to live for about two months, due to borrowing a portion of money from our close friends… my sister and I got scammed for a price that was too good to be true. My sister and I found an affordable apartment online, and we thought this was an amazing opportunity to be on our own after finishing her undergraduate studies and as for me entering my final year in my undergrad. We both got scammed and lost 1,800 to a scammer promising and impersonating as a landlord. The day we realized we’ve been scammed, was literally the most traumatizing moment of our lives. Since starting school, I was able to pay back the amount to my friend and another portion back as I was behind on rent money by a month of $550… because of that major loss of money, it seems so little but for me it is A LOT.

 

I’ve been working two part-time jobs to keep up, and every time I feel like I’m starting to get back on my feet I fall behind. I feel like I’m only making enough or barely enough to keep up. I’m behind on bills, sometimes not enough for food, but enough for rent. It’s embarrassing to ask those close to you for help because the one thing you don’t want to talk about is getting scammed. My whole savings towards this “wonderful apartment” have left me scarred and feeling I’m trying to constantly dig out of a hole I can’t get out of. Even though it’s been a few months, and being back in school for a few months I still feel this restlessness and stress for not having much money left. I’ve been so stressed out that a few weeks ago, after a doctor visit I got diagnosed with alopecia areata. For those of you who may not know what it is, it is an autoimmune disease where your own immune system attacks the hair follicles thinking you’re sick and that your hair is bad. Since then, I’ve been getting bald patches and now learning that I may have to take some shots to speed the growth where I may not know if it’ll grow back. Hearing this, I already know I’m due to pay more than I am capable of. Right now, I’m doing my best to stay positive, doing my best to work as much as I can. But I do please ask of you, if you can donate any dollar amount I would forever be grateful. Thank you.

22 year old single mother. need help paying rent and tuition.

Hi my name is Emma and I am a 22 year old single mother to a four year old girl name Chloe. I am having a really hard time now being able to support both of us financially and find myself constantly in a worried state. I am currently enrolled at University of Toronto, working to complete an undergraduate program. I got pregnant with my beautiful daughter Chloe when I was 17 and had her at 18. Apart from raising my daughter single handedly, I am a full time student and I also work part time as a barista during the days that I am not in class as well as on the weekends. I don’t get any support from my daughter’s father and am having a hard time supporting both of us by myself. When I am not working or attending lectures, I am working at balancing caring for Chloe, tending to housework, and completing readings and assignments. I know that I need a way to make more money while I’m still studying but I’m not confident with picking up more hours at work because that means also paying for a babysitter for Chloe and taking hours away from the time that I need to do my school work. I am terrified at the thought that I am caught in this bind where I have to choose between my studies which will help my future, or making money now at a minimum wage job to make ends meat for Chloe and I. I am Currently in my second year and have 2-3 more years of this to go. Since starting this program, I have been extremely stressed and anxious. I am not sure if I will be able to support Chloe and myself like this for much longer without giving up my studies. Paying for rent is extremely hard in the city and all I care about if being Able to give my daughter everything she needs (which I do), and being able to give her a happy and healthy life. Anything that anyone is willing to donate to me will be extremely appreciated. I know that once I graduate and get a well paying job, I will pay everything forward and never take for granted what other have done for me.

Please anything that anyone is willing to donate us will help and mean so much to us.

thank you for reading.

College Student looking to get out of debt

Hello there,

My name is Gen and I’ve recently needed to quit my job to really focus on my schooling. I’m in class full time for Fashion Marketing and also am doing an internship as a marketing director for a luxury high end tailoring company, my debt at the moment is $40,000 and am looking to pay that off as soon as possible. I was previously in vet school for a couple years which is really what killed my debt. I’m a 21 year old living in downtown Toronto trying to make it in the fashion industry, I also do some modeling on the side which has been really helpful in getting myself out there.

 

I live alone with no family by my side to help me, I’ve been alone since I was 17 and have been living paycheck to paycheck also trying to support my mom who asks me for money at least once a week. It’s really hard to say no to her even though she hasn’t really been there much for me.

 

Getting this money would would really help me be able to focus on my internship and do well in school as my grades are slowly dropping and my attendance is getting scary low due to my previous employment. If you can find it in your heart to help out a small town girl trying to make it in a big city that would mean the world to me and I’d be forever grateful.

 

If you you have any questions please feel free to message me through my email. I’d love to keep in contact with a potential supporter.

Mr Nice Guy

Well first off my name is Rob. I don’t like asking anybody for anything especially for support. I had always been brought up to look after yourself and people you love but never thought it would be my downfall but it somehow was. It was back in 2011 the company I worked for closed the doors and I found myself out of work I was blessed with a good job that gave me a years salary to ease the pain of losing my job. I had dated a girl years earlier but she went away to school in a different part of the country but continued to write her letters and got together after the school year and she came home, this lasted a few years. One day she wrote me and stated she had found another I understood because I to had fallen for someone else and ended up marrying her the following year we are still together 8 years later. Back to 2011 my ex had contacted me knowing I had gotten a buyout package from my company because that is where I had met her years before. She had emailed me stating she was traveling in another country and as involved in an accident and asked if she could borrow a few thousand to pay some outstanding medical bills and she would pay me back when she got back to Canada I told her I was now married and couldn’t she pleaded and begged me and because I had loved her once before I agreed as long as I got paid back as soon as possible. I took it out of my personal account not telling my wife (big mistake) Soon after she asked for more I told her no that’s when the nightmare began she demanded more and when I told her no she threatened to show my wife old letters saying we were still involved and we had never stopped seeing each other. Because she lived in the same city she knew where my wife worked and threatened to go to her work and show her the letters so I gave in I didn’t want my wife to think something was going on and didn’t know what my ex had but didn’t want my wife involved so I gave her more just to go away. Soon she demanded more and started to call me at home I changed my number but she soon found out the new one via the internet. I told her I as going to go to the police and she had to stop again she threatened me and said if I go she will tell the police that I raped her I ended up giving her one last payment over $60,000 in total the only reason the payments stopped is my wife found the emails and payment history. I swore nothing happened and though I had doubts my wife said she believed me I told her I as scared she would leave and didn’t want her to think I cheated on her but she still resented me for paying that money and I understands I am totally to blame. We are still together after 8 years have a nice family and are still very much in love we for the most part have gotten past this except for that bill that comes every month I still owe the bank $48000 for the loan I took out to pay her off a cruel reminder that my wife and I struggle to pay every month. I really need to pay this off so we can move on from this to put this in our past and forget it forever because though she forgives me it still puts a huge strain on our marriage. I know this was my mistake but I truly thought I was helping someone out. I am so sorry for asking and will always be thankful to all that can help…..bless you all

Mental Health Crisis

To anyone taking the time to read my post, I’d like to thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

I am a 31 year old woman who has been coping with mental illness for the better part of 20 years. I have a major depressive disorder coupled with debilitating anxiety, which often presents as agoraphobia. This means that I am unable to leave my home quite often due to paralyzing fear. I suffer from terrible physical and emotional torment on a daily basis, even though I am persistent and consistent with the medication I’ve been prescribed. I am currently a recipient of disability benefits because of these issues.

I live with a roommate because of the financial constraints that come with being on government benefits. Please, do not think that I am ungrateful for the help that I receive, as I am painfully aware of what life was like before I applied. Having a roof over my head had been the most important goal in my life, and I am greatly relieved to be sheltered, regardless of the living arrangements. However, even at a reduced cost (by having a roommate,) I find myself stuck in mental health limbo.

I am completely unable to afford the ability to get well. I can either eat for the month, or go to one single therapy session. I have attended multiple free sessions and tried to get as much help as is available to me within my financial bracket, even trying to pay reduced rates offered by very generous professionals and going without proper food for weeks. However, living this way has only exacerbated my mental health issues and I fear the damage it is doing to me as I’ve been getting worse, not better. I feel like a prisoner of my circumstances.

I feel like I am an intelligent, persevering, strong woman that deserves the chance to fight for her life and make something out of it. I am desperate and determined to be a success; to overcome these struggles and be a productive member of society. I want to be able to make friends, fall in love one day, go to school, get a job I love, buy a home…I want a future. I deserve a future. Please help me fight for it.

If you can help me at all, I can’t begin to explain the difference it would make in my life. Thank you for reading.

In Need of Help

Listen am gonna make this plain so here it goes, I am Charles, a 19 year old Canadian, i may know what your thinking, why is someone this young asking for donations, well to put it simply am struggling, with mobile bills, and other payments which I am not able to fulfill now because I do not make enough money, and I might lose my job because my workplace doesn’t or can’t get  the funding they need to pay me, and I know “why don’t you look for a new job”, well to put it simply some jobs here only allow women to work, and most if not all require me to drive every morning, which I cannot because I do not have a vehicle, I don’t have my license and I can’t get anyone reliable to take me each morning, the reason I have a job right now is because am taking another high school class so I can have ride via bus to my workplace each morning, I am unable to move to find a decent job from this small town and am currently applying for an online college course so I can get a new PC to work on and own since I can’t afford one for Christmas for myself, my phone might be cut off soon and I may have to owe over 600$ for my bill.
So this is my last resort, I’ve been rejected by loaning companies because my wage doesn’t reach the bare minimum requirement for their application, so if I don’t find a way to get money by the end of this month, I don’t know what to do

Looking For Job, Dropped out of program, Need Rent

I googled where you could ask for money and found this. I wouldn’t come here unless I had to. My name is Savanna I just dropped out of the Water and Waste Water Technician Program, I was so excited when I went into it but realized it was not the program I expected it to be. I moved 9 hours away from home to come to this school and the program isn’t too hard, it was quite the opposite; I just find myself bored with the work and it was always so repetitive. I miss my family a lot and I was a big part of our home so I was only gone for about a month when my mom told me she was moving with my siblings 12 hours away from me, and 10 away from where I grew up. She had been struggling a lot since I left and needed the support from her family. When it came time to move my father who does not pay any child support refused to pay for their move although previously had bragged he could pay for the whole thing. I sent my mom 1000 dollars of my OSAP money to her to cover moving expenses. I’ve been looking for a job since November but with plans to travel to see my family the only interviews I got, I was turned down due to the 3 weeks I would be away for the holidays. My mom has just moved into her new house with my siblings, and has a job she will be starting soon full time. We moved them in on December 26th, they’d been in the city for 2 months on December 20th when I was there. I was so happy we found them a house while they were there. I told her she could take as much time as she needs to pay me back but shes already given me 150 back because she knows I’m also struggling. I am applying everyday to new jobs and hope to get one soon but for the time being anything would help. I haven’t taken the time to look through other stories on this website yet but I’m sure I am not the saddest one so I understand if you can’t send much but anything would help honestly.  The picture is of my mom in front of her new house!!!!!

We lost a loved one, lost a job, lost our security…

I never thought I would be in this position- asking complete strangers for money online. I’ve always had a strong work ethic, and believed in forging my own path- and being a completely resilient and independent person.

It’s not easy for me to even type these words, as I’m going to get really honest and pour my heart on the line and admit some of the biggest secrets in my life. But it’s because I need help, and I can’t allow my pride to continue being a burden to my family.

For the last 8 years I have been working full-time to support my boyfriend and our two pets- a small dog and a fat cat. I worked a lot of different jobs- sometimes two or three at the same time (everything from serving, film production assistant, liquor stores and more). It was a hectic lifestyle- but I made it work, because my boyfriend was never in a position health-wise to work himself.

We lived with his adopted family (more on that later) for about 5 years (contributing to rent, bills and groceries for the household), before moving on our own. His family is wonderful, and consists of two loving parents, another adopted sibling, and two biological children from the parents.

We moved on our own about two years ago when it became apparent his family couldn’t support us for much longer, due to their own financial hardships. Life was good for us at this point. Despite living in our first rather small & dingy bachelor/basement suite in a large & unfamiliar city- my boyfriend was consistently working for the first time in 8 years.

It was hard for him to work, and he never did for so long, because he was born with a crippling disability that was passed on to him from both of his parents. He never met his parents, they both died shortly after he was born, although he has been with the same adopted family nearly his whole life. His illness makes him tired and feel sore, he can’t gain weight like most people and he has 10 horse pills to take every single day, which leaves him nauseous & clutching his stomach in a ball on the bathroom floor, at times. Not to mention the constant trips to the hospital/ specialists we both frequently go to, to maintain his health.

Despite those hurdles, when we first moved out both of us were working at the same time, for the first time ever in our relationship. He was working doing hard physical labour / contract work with a friend, and I had a good job, on salary, managing a retail store in the city.

I watched him battle his illness and get up everyday to support us and provide us with a good life- testing his limits all the time. It wasn’t easy for him to work, and I often told him he shouldn’t go in when I could see he wasn’t up to it. Sometimes he would take a day, but usually he pushed himself and did it.

We were a good team, saving money and starting to build our own independent life together.

Within six months we were able to move out of that dingy basement suite into a clean and warm apartment (with an actual bedroom!), and everything seemed really good.

Then, one morning last year, we were just waking up & got a phone call from my boyfriends dad. His dad was sobbing hard. I couldn’t hear a lot, but my boyfriend’s face broke and he started bawling. I watched his heart break. And all I could hear was my boyfriends broken cries and his dads muffled ones on the other end.

When they got off the phone (his dad was coming to pick us up), I learned what happened. My boyfriend’s older brother, my brother-in-law, had passed away from a heart attack that morning & we were both crushed.

We spent two weeks with the family, taking that time off of work, and I got two small payday loans to help with the strenuous financial/ emotional circumstances. We did receive a lot of help in that time- my boyfriend was able to leave his contracting job and get a much less physically demanding job offered from their families church & we attended a free counselling session, too.

However, my job was less sympathetic then the church- and while not directly firing me for taking that time off, I was told how bad it was for the company that I took that time off, and was put on the chopping block for it. Within 3 months I lost my job.

We’ve been trying to make it work, but the two loans I got have defaulted (since I couldn’t afford to pay it back after losing my job) and my boyfriend’s job at the church is only part-time and with very random shifts/ pay dates. We’re also struggling with our day-to-day bills & rent.

I have a creditor knocking at my door, and the most work I’ve been getting is part-time serving work, not enough to make ends meet, hardly enough to keep food on our plates. Not to mention the grieving process for both me and him is still quite overwhelming, as the loss was unexpected and still pretty fresh. I can’t imagine what my boyfriend is going through, losing a family member while confronting his own health issues daily. I know for him life feels hopeless, and I don’t want this debt to be an added pressure on him.

We’re not in the hole by a lot of money, $800- 1,000 CAD is all that we need to get our finances straightened out, but anything helps in a situation like this. I know it seems like a small amount, but when you have bills to pay on top of that, and health issues & grievance… It starts to feel like that thousand dollars will always be hanging over our heads. (Posted a photo of some, not all, debts).

If there is anyone out there who is in a position to help a small family who has been through a lot over the last few months, there would be no way we could repay you in terms of what you will have given us emotionally. Thanks to all who read and God bless.

Feeling Low, Thanks for Helping

Thanks for hearing me out. Basically, I’ve struggled with mental health all my life. As a child, I lost my 17 year old sister in an accident near Prince George, then I was sexually molested by someone I thought I could trust, then my parents separated and my dad and two older brothers moved out. My mother had a bad drinking problem and would sometimes disappear for days at a time and I wouldn’t know if she was even alive. I ended up being forced to live with my dad, and went to alternate school and went to counseling. I was 13. When I was 16, I moved back to our old house after my dad kicked my mom out. My little friend went missing. My kitty cat, Little Conan. He was let out of the house by my visiting grandmother, and I never saw him again. He left a dead mouse by the front door before disappearing.

I graduated as valedictorian for having the highest GPA in the graduating class. I was known as a very quiet, shy person, so my speech was shocking for people to hear. I was back at the school I graduated from just a few months later, as a substitute and on-call TA, while I went to University.

I finished two transfer courses in University before moving in with a couple of friends and becoming an alcoholic. I obtained a kitten from one of my roommates. He loved me, and I loved him. I called him the Obliterator, while my roommate called him by his original name, Cookie Dough. He would sleep on me, cuddle me, play with me, and he trusted me. But when she moved out, shortly after we had moved into a new apartment, she took him with her.

I moved into my boyfriend’s house, got a job at Walmart, and payed for my brother and cousin to live in my old apartment for 4 months. About 1500 per month for food, rent, internet, laundry. I had no money for myself, but I was drinking heavily at the time. It was rough. There were days when I would still be drunk heading into work.

I couldn’t support them any longer and my brother was upset at me about it. My cousin was understanding. I feel into what was the beginning of the deepest depression of my life, one that I’ve been in for over a year. I broke up with my boyfriend, whom I still loved. I couldn’t keep dragging him down.

I’ve sunk deeper and deeper and lost my job, my connection with my family. I barely remember what happiness feels like. I can’t afford to buy myself food, I’m likely going to get kicked out of my place. I need help mentally, but I can’t get counseling without paying a 75 dollar fine first.

I feel like my life is over, like I’m stuck. I have a cute cat, who I likely will have to give away. I’m alone and I don’t know where to start with fixing things. Certainly getting my rent paid or myself feed would be a good place to start. Counseling would be a nice second.

Thanks for considering a donation and hearing me out.

EMERGENCY HELP NEEDED

My heart is broken and my eyes are filled with tears having to write this story. My name is Birgit and it’s with a very heavy heart that I’m having to share my mother’s story to anyone who chooses to read this. On October 22nd of this year was a very hard day as we found out she was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer. At this point in time we are unsure where the cancer is spreading. She had a bone scan on October 25th and I’m thankful to say it hasn’t spread there. Her doctors and specialists are moving fast to start her on the right treatment for her. She will be starting chemotherapy and possibly radiation at the end of November. My mom, Brenda, has always had such a kind heart to anyone she meets. She’s the type of person who would rather give than receive. Her smile lights up any room she walks into and her sense of humor will make anyone who is close to her walk away with a stomach ache from laughing so hard. Her life story is a very sad and long one, but she always came out of everything with her head held high and stronger than ever. She’s such an incredibly strong woman that I look up to and wish to be half as strong as her. Our story is very long, so to kind of make it short, I finally found her 3 years ago after being apart for almost 20 years. The day we finally met was the best day of my life and I’m sure the best day of hers. So I guess you could call me crazy but I would like to save her life and spend more than 3 years with her. We would really appreciate any donations to help my mom out as she has to quit her job she’s been with for over twenty years. When she starts her chemotherapy she can’t work as she is around the public for 12 hours a day seven days a week, and she needs to be as healthy as she can be while on her treatment. Donations will be used to help pay for her medications. Donations and prayers are more than welcome as her situation is very urgent. Please feel free to share her story with people you may know. Thank you so much for reading my mom’s story. I will update as soon as we know anything more.

We had an important video call yesterday (Nov. 28) with the oncologist in Prince George and found out my mom has stage 4 breast cancer and is HER 2 positive. The doctors have found small spots on her lungs, so the cancer has potentially spread there. She starts her first chemotherapy treatment on December 11 as well as two targeted drugs for HER 2 positive. Her type of breast cancer is very aggressive so that’s why it’s growing and spreading so fast. Please if you can donate or share her story it would mean so much to her.

My mom has started her first set of treatments. She had her PICC line put in on Dec. 3. Yesterday (Dec. 11) she had her first targeted drug for the HER 2 positive and today (Dec. 12) she had her second targeted drug plus her chemotherapy drug (paclitaxel). We were at the hospital yesterday for 2 and a half hours and today for just over 7 hours to get her treatment started. She is doing really well and is very strong. If anyone can please donate or share her story we would really appreciate it.

Humbly low I am going up come hell or high water!

I am the 58-year-old female who has had the hardest years of my life.I was in an unhealthy relationship for 40 years.I built a business that was very successful when I was younger and made a lot of money bought a home and supported my family 100 percent for over 20 years..I will spare the gory details.I had to choose between my freedom or $$… I lost my home 6 acre farm and had to go bankrupt in order to move on. I left with a suitcase, not one penny sold my car for food and rent deposit for an old one bedroom apartment. I had to even go to a food bank to eat I was so embarrassed as this is a place I couldn’t ever imagine being.I remember being hungry. My son moved with me and splits the rent with me.  I sleep on the couch in the living room LOL…

I had no up to date skills as I was retired I was terrified long story short I ended up buying a shopping cart and putting cleaning supplies in it and walked within a 2 block area of where I live and put up posters and cards to clean apartments..Well, I make 30.00 an hour and walk across the street pulling my cart…I work 2-4 hours a day as I don’t want to break my body this pays my bills. I spend the rest of the time working on a plan.

Most of my clients are elderly and don’t like to cook and some are sick cancer etc. I see a need that needs to be filled and have something that I have slowly put together that I know will be a success. I have the finished product but I am needing money to make this go. I am asking for financial support to do this so I can re-establish my life on strong ground

Purchasing late grandfather’s house

Hello,

I am a 28 year old woman who works full time at a minimum wage job. I am currently living with my parents after completing 3 years of college with little prospect of a job in my field. I have started to save money slowly in order to purchase a house in the future. My grandfather recently passed away and in his will everything goes to my mother, including his house. My parents want to sell the house in order to help pay off their mortgage and complete some renovations. The house was built in the early 1900’s, and while it is liveable it is in desperate need of updating, requires new flooring and stairs, and a lot more cosmetic work we well as some structural work.

This house is very special to me as I have visited the house on a near weekly basis for the last 28 years and have made so many incredible memories in this house before my grandparents passed away. It would break my heart to have my parents sell the house and risk having it torn down or turned into student housing.

I am attempting to convince my parents to let me move into the house, fix it up and pay monthly rent until I can afford to purchase the house from them. Ideally trying to save around $20,000 for a down payment on the house, and plan to apply for loans to meet the purchasing price of the house.

I realize that the dollar amount is way up there, and do not expect to meet it any time soon. I greatly appreciate any help that you are able to offer.

– Hayley

Requesting donations for residence fees.

Hello,

My name is Christina and I am requesting donations for me to pay my residence fee for the Fall 2019 term. I am an international student who is attending the University of Windsor to complete my bachelors program in Psychology. I fell on hard times earlier this year which lead to me being homeless, jobless and living in my car. I was granted a small scholarship to pursue my degree and considering I was homeless back in the states, it felt right to go somewhere where I know I can succeed. In the initial process, I had a job but was laid off due to budget cuts. Before I moved to Canada, I applied to many jobs to try and secure a way of proper income before I arrived. Although with over 30 applications in the job hunt, I received no calls. When I moved to Canada, I continued to apply to many jobs and was met with little to no response from the companies. As much as I wanted to give up, I did not. I began to conduct online research for jobs that I could do online at the library of my school. I found a small company that was hiring transcriptionist and I applied. While that job brings in money, it only bring in about $15 dollars a week (if it is a good week). The pay is depending on how much a person is willing to pay for the project. Some projects vary from $.80 to $5. This is not enough for me to pay my resident fee. I am quite desperate because I have to save up to go back home in the summer because I would not have a place of residence during the school off season. I am hoping that someone who is kind and generous can help me with my residence fees because I love this school and I love my program. I am determined to continue my education one way or another, but I am simply at a loss at the moment. I have attached a picture of my residence application  confirmation that displays the cost of the fee. The fee is in Canadian dollars but in this passage I have include the converted currency in the case of a donation outside of Canada. I really hope that I can get the funds to secure a home for me in the fall. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

Not something I’ve ever done..

Tis the season for everything to go horribly wrong… fa la la la la… my name should be Murphy because literally everything that could go wrong has and did.

Ok so to start this over again because my phone decided to erase everything I took a hour writing before…

AHEM: hey how are you doing today? I’ve been better, I’m not the type to ask anyone for help ever I’d rather struggle and find my own way to fix my issues then ask anyone for help, but here I am asking you to please help me. I’ve come to a point in my life where I’m literally stuck between a rock and a hard place and if you continue to read this you will find out why.

I’m 28 years old I had a job until a few months ago when I got fired, still for unknown reasons..

You all know the phrase “if it’s to good to be true it probably is” and boy let me tell you it was… I send him $1000 he gives me a loan… more like he keeps my money and won’t return my emails the cops won’t do anything and neither will my bank guess they don’t cover stupidity.

I was attempting to get a loan because wait for it this is the best part….  I drive a older ford or I should say drove and I just replaced my fuel pump in it.. a few days later I smelled gas stupid me not thinking didn’t have a flashlight what do I do light a lighter… needles to say I got the fire out before my truck burnt to the ground I now have a mess of burnt wires and my truck wont start, I happen to live a good 20 minutes out of town with very little friends none that drive anyway.. so I’m stuck as I said before.. literally it’s a long walk to town in the winter in alberta. My phone just got cut off as well.. see anything that could of went wrong has.. least I still have power and heat and a internet connection :)

So if anyone has bothered to read this far (I’m really hoping someone has) I’m in dire need of help from anyone… please?

Money To Get Back on Track

Hello,

My name is Kathleen.

I want to start by saying thank you for reading my post. I usually don’t resort to these types of websites but in life I’ve learned sometimes it’s okay to ask for help.

To start this off I’m a 20 year old student in Canada Ontario. I got to this point because my mom was a young immigrant from the Philippines who married my Dad the Canadian and started a family here. Not to put the blame on anyone but my mom was young and in love so when my dad decided on the place where we would live and other further choices she thought it was alright. My dad used to be the one working, my mom in the mean time was raising me and trying to transfer his nursing degree in the Philippines to here in Canada. It started small but my dad had become abusive, got involved in the wrong crowd involving drugs and put our family in a rough situation. The house we lived in was built ages ago with the foundation crumbling and repairs beyond belief. My mom finally got her PSW job but it wasn’t enough to leave especially when my brother and I were young. At the age of 19, the last straw hit when my dad cheated on my mom and started mixing his personal business with family. I got a accepted into a factory and started working endlessly along with school  to convince my mom it was time to leave. We left and for awhile it was good. Where we live rent is high and so is utilities so I helped and paid as much as I could. At this time, I shared a car with my dad that he absolutely destroyed and I was naive to not put my name down as another owner so he took the car. I resorted to purchasing a vehicle instead. It was fine until my dad let us know he had maxed two credit cards and was in his own trouble. Unable to pay my mom back and them still together, interest grew and it to this day is still unpaid.

Up until a few months ago, the factory cut my shifts entirely giving me about 2 shifts a month and I was running around trying to find another job. At this time, our landlord decided to sell our place and asked us to kindly find a new one. I became backed up with bills, my mom worked endlessly to pay the rent and help me, I missed car payments and had to resort to using some of our credit cards that had equally been maxed out. Luckily we found a place but it is 40 minutes from the main city way in the county because that’s all we could afford for rent. Along with this new rental, the debt from these credit cards have been brutal. With being so far behind, I had to get my vehicle repossesed and I work 40+ hours every week along with full time school. My mom works even more hours and my brother recently just got a job along with school but with all three of us working endlessly it’s like we keep ending back where we started. We currently share her vehicle and commute everyday to town almost 2.5 hours in travelling everyday with the winter weather coming.

My goal for this post is to just ask for help. I’d love to reach $8000 and pay off some bills, pay off some of this credit card debt and buy a cheap vehicle in the mean time. I hope to just get rid of this negativity so we can finally cut ties with my dad and just be free. I graduate school in a year but in the mean time, my minimum wage job helps me as much as I can. I just don’t want to graduate either with such crippling debt behind me. I also just want to let my mom rest and not have to work 60 hours a week.

Again thank you for reading my post and I appreciate any help.

Allergic to?

• • Hello! My name is Ravin and I am a Sagittarius. If u know or follow astrology, you know the Sag is the freedom loving extrovert who loves ADVENTURE. That’s me in a nutshell. Or that WAS me before I starting having allergic reactions all the time. Actually I have been dealing with urticaria ( chronic hives) for 2 and a half years now. Wow that’s insane I have been suffering from this ailment that long. No, on second thought it’s starting to feel like FOREVER. I honestly have not had one day without feeling the itch or the painful sting I get from the welts . I have no idea what is causing the allergic reactions as of YET. My general practitioner has had me do numerous allergy tests. I have also had a painful skin biopsy done that I could feel being done because lucky me ( another trait of my sun sign) doesn’t freeze very well. Or at. All. We have also had my bloodwork and a skin biopsy sent to Vancouver and the results came back as a case of Severe Eczema. Are you kidding me is all I could blurt out at my good man Dr. S.. I am desperately needing to see a specialist. But the town I live in barely or doesn’t even have enough doctors as it is. I’m lucky I have an in town Physician. Most people travel out of town to see a family doctor. They send u out of town for a broken Legg for Pete’s sake. And so this is why I’m asking for help. U see the closest dermatologist and allergy specialist is an 8 hr. drive from where I live. I’m barely making rent from month to month as I’m not able to work. I get anxious whenever I need to leave my apartment because I tend to get a reaction almost every time. The lotions and strict diets have depleted any savings in my bank account. I’m asking for $1500 to pay for the trip to see the specialist. The funds will be needed lto insure my car, pay for gas and a hotel as well as the cost of eating. All I want are answers to this annoying and sometimes unbearable condition. And hopefully (fingers crossed) they can figure out what’s causing it or if I need to live in a bubble. Either way I would just like to know so I can deal with it now and ease the stress it takes over in my mind and everyday tasks . Thank you for taking the time to read this. I’m going to attach pictures so you can really see it. I’m almost always uncomfortable… forever itchy, Ravin.

Please Help, not asking for a whole lot

So I’ve made some pretty rough life choices and now I’m stuck in a place I really don’t want to be in.

I’ve always been a clever guy, got away with a lot of things I probably wasn’t supposed to. But this time, I’m pretty much out of cards to play. Now I can’t say I’m proud of what I did, but I’m definitely changing the way I want to view life. My head was in a very dark place for the past few months, we’ve all been there, can’t be human otherwise. Until I met a friend. Now because of them I have a reason to keep going, to climb back up the set of stairs I thought would crumble beneath my feet. Now I can’t ask my friend for help financially, that wouldn’t be right, not after all the emotional support they’ve been willing to give me. But I do need it, so when I heard people might be able to donate a buck or two, I decided to reach out once more.

Personally I don’t like the idea of asking for someone to give, and I won’t. But if people are looking for ways to send kindness to others, might as stick my hand out and hope that kindness falls in my grasp.

I just need enough to manage things like food and such. My friend is kind enough to let me use their place, (Shower, kitchen, etc..) but I can’t sleep there, that’s asking too much of them. I just need enough to get me past the couple of months where I look for a job and restart my life. I also want to thank you, not for just donating but for taking the time to read.

Please help me get back on track

Good day to all,

i really don’t like asking for money. I work hard and am very proud man. But unfortunately I have gotten to a point where I can’t manage anymore. I have a wonderful family with two boys. My oldest just turned 4 years old and my youngest is 1 year old in a couple of weeks. I’ve had some difficult circumstance arise, which put me into a very negative financial position. Where my rent and expenses are higher than my income. My wife had a very difficult pregnancy from the first month. In her fourth month she got really sick and could not work. Which lead me to take care of my family and the expenses. This took a hefty toll on our credit. My son was born a month early, but I’d a very strong little fighter. He is doing very well now:). This also caused my wife to have a very difficult delivery, which left her in the hospital for almost two weeks. In this time I also got laid of from work where I didn’t get any income for a month and a half.

I am not in a good financial situation right now. And most probably will loose my car soon if I don’t pay the loans and will be avocets if I can’t pay my rent in full. I would really appreciate some help to get me over this bump. Just so that I can live with my income again.

Curently i have to pay rent which is more than my bi-weekly cheque. Then my other expenses like hydro, water, insurance and the minimum credit card payments. My expenses are higher than my income. And can get ahead.

Please help me and my family get rid of my financial hard ship this Christmas.

I owe $43200.

thank you

Nine months later after he neglected me and my son he finds out I was going to leave him n says ” your not leaving and taking my son” he got a ministry worker and took custody of my son, I had no one to help me or give me advice on what to do….

University, Illness, Family Troubles

Hello,

 

My name is Meg and I am a university student from Ontario, Canada. I normally am not one to ask for money, however I am in a bit of a financial crisis and could use all the help I can get.

 

My unhealthy relationship with my mother growing up has made it essential for me to move into student housing as I work towards my undergraduate degree. My mother, who has also been battling breast cancer and non-hodgkins lymphoma for decades, has given me no support whatsoever, emotionally or financially, and I am drowning in debts which I owe to her. She has not given me one cent to put towards my education, whereas my brother has received thousands, and his living expenses have also been paid for. I am currently in debt of about $4000, and will be drowning even more once the next school year begins and I must pay for residence and tuition.

 

My marks in high school were high enough for me to receive a free tuition scholarship from my university, however the scholarship is only valid for my first year of study and is non-renewable and my tuition is approximately $7000 per year. On top of that, I am living in residence, which costs $12,000 per school year. My mental health is suffering due to the stresses of my financial situation, and I am unable to pay for my perscriptions of antidepressants, and am off my medications and not doing very well.

 

Any help that you can offer me would be greatly appreciated. I know that once I finish my schooling and become a teacher, I will be able to pay it forward and help many others because I was so generously helped at this point in my life.

So I Might Get Evicted The Day After Christmas

I’ve had a rough life. Yeah, yeah you’ve heard it all before. I’m a 24 year old transman with crippling depression who has been in and out of the hospital for the last 6 years due to multiple suicide attempts, doctor visits, therapist sessions and so on. One year ago, I got kicked out of my fathers house because he didn’t like how I was transgender, I then had to move into the basement my sister rented just to have a place to sleep. Long story shorter, my sisters attitude about my situation and her tolerance of my illnesses caused her to quit all contact for me and I became worse and worse living in a room for 6 month, all the while I was on sick leave from work because the suicide attempt in December last year completely shattered my self confidence.

Having enough, I guess, my sister kicked me out of her house and I had less than two weeks to find a place to live. Under those conditions I found a place to rent that was 695$ CAD a month. It’s a pretty garbage place, but it was all I could do on such short notice. The same day I was accepted into this lease, I was also accepted into University!

Since September, I’ve been living on student loans and part time work back at my job I’ve held for the last 5 years. It was meager but it was working. Then, in November, my wisdom teeth were hurting so much I was unable to eat or chew, and talking and breathing was becoming impossible. I had to get two of the four impacted wisdom teeth removed. On top of that, I had my car break down and I had to rush to get a new car, setting me back another 360$CAD on top of all that. I also take care of my younger sister and her bills as she left my fathers house the same time I did, for similar reasons, so that and travelling to pick her up every weekend, costs a lot.

This month I didn’t make rent. I currently received a generous donation from a lovely follower on Tumblr for 200 dollars but that just covers the late fee. I’m attempting to sell items on another social media site to no avail, and as you can see in the image, I’ve been given a notice to terminate, with the date set to December 26, 2018. I’m devastated. This year has been horrible and downhill with a little glimmer of hope there in the middle. I’m scared I’ve never been in a situation like this before and I don’t know where else to turn. Even if you could help me with a dollar, I would be more than pleased. The amount I need remaining is 437$CAD after my paycheck this Friday.

My PayPal is paypal.me/jm2077 if you’re able to help.

Infertility Woes – Injured Paramedic

Hello Everyone,

First, I want to say thank you for taking the time to read my story.

I was a career Paramedic and Emergency Medical Dispatcher for 10 years before being diagnosed with PTSD and Major Depressive Disorder as a result of repetitive trauma exposure in my work. I nearly lost my life and everything that I love as a result. I’m happy to say that I am now in a place where I am stable and functioning, but I will never return to work.

My wife and I are trying to start a family and we have been trying for a few years now. Its to the point where Invitro Fertilization is our best and, most likely, only shot at getting pregnant.  In the past I worked as hard as possible to cover any extra expense we had but I can no longer do that. My injury also resulted in a large amount of debt – my wife was in full time studies at the time of my injury and we relied on credit just to get by.

I feel humbled by coming on this site to ask for help. I’ve spent my entire life helping others and working hard and now I need it returned. I cannot express how badly we need this miracle and what having a family would mean to the both of us.

The process of Invito Fertilization is around $16,000-20,000 per shot. Our debt load is around 30K right now.

Please consider us if you are looking for someone to donate to. We will be bringing new life into this world and making a miracle.

Thank you again for taking the time to read my story

Humbly yours,

S

I need help recovering and avoiding eviction. Willing to create custom paintings in exchange

Hello. My name is Sarah. I am a young(ish) adult working full time in Alberta.

I’ll give as much context as I can in short form so I don’t end up writing a novel.

8 months ago, I was at the end of an alcohol addiction, but still functioning at work and with general daily errands. I keep very, very few close friends and last spring, 2 of them, who do not drink, cut me out of their lives because of how draining I had become. Two days later, my third friend, who was also an alcoholic like myself, was found dead in her house because of alcohol related organ failure.

I was in shock over the next few weeks, so much so, that I had quit drinking completely. I have been sober ever since my friends funeral last May, not even out of effort, but it somehow wrecked me enough that I had completely forgotten about it.

Immediately, I had started weekly therapy. My insurance only covers $300 a year, so that was used up within a few visits. Although I work full time, I work at minimum wage. But I felt it was worth the money. I was on a sliding scale at $75 a week and thought I would be able to cut down on things to make it work. I also started medication, which is thankfully covered.

I quit smoking and started grocery shopping at the dollar store to try and make up for the counselling, as well as worked overtime when I was allowed to do so. However, about 3 months ago, my health began to decline. And this is where control of my finances went from recovering to declining beyond repair.

I am already quite small and was losing weight rapidly, I noticed my hair starting falling out in little handfuls and I was having difficulty lifting things or focusing at work. Through collaboration with my therapist and my work supervisor, I was put on a 2.5 week stress leave in October as I was no longer able to function at work.

When I came back to work, I was incomparably better and much more equipped to work and handle day to day stress. However, I knew I would have to figure something out for rent and my automatic bill withdrawals. I work in a lesser known skilled trade (we don’t get paid properly, but I love the job and try to make it work) and I am also a freelance artist in my off-time.

I tried my best to hunt out some commissions in a short period of time, but was unsuccessful in making enough to cover. I have no contact with my family and have recently lost all of my friends (indefinitely?), so I am unable to borrow. My job does not allow advances.

I was able to secure several payday loans to cover my rent for November. But because of this, the automatic repayments for the loans and their interest have put me in the negative. I know payday loaners should be avoided at all costs, but at the time, I felt like I had no other options and just wanted to make it through that month.

I have lived in my apartment for 2 years and this is the first time I have been unable to pay rent. I am usually resourceful but I believe I have come to the end of that. I had spoken to my landlord last week and he was understanding of the situation and has given me until December 15th to come up with rent for him.

Also, due to an extremely unusual shortage of work, staff have all been sent home twice this week. I was actually just phoned again today and asked not to come in on Monday. This is almost comically inconvenient, which sort of lead me to this site. My supervisors have been incredibly supportive throughout this whole ordeal, but are unable to help financially.

My rent is $1075. I expect my cheque to be around $700-$750(It’s normally about $1200) I still have the last of my payday loans coming out, as well as my bill payments, which will put me back in the negative.

Although this is a begging site, I am happy to offer some custom artwork in exchange if you would like as the title says. I would like to attempt to earn this. I have a few smaller canvases and would gladly paint whatever you would like. I am quite experienced and have a huge portfolio, so I promise it would be good quality.

I have also attached an image of my rental agreement with all personal information omitted.

Thank you for your consideration and I am willing to answer any questions excluding personal/security info of course.

Car Accident Large Ticket, and Job Lost

Hi, my Name it Evan, before the summer ended, I was involved in an ‘official’ 2 car accident. I was coming home from my summer job on a back road. While I was coming to a stop at a busy cross roads, a truck was coming barreling up behind me, didn’t stop in time, and rear ended me, with enough force so that my car had pushed into the intersection.

Luckily enough for myself, I had hit the accelerator quick enough to not get hit directly in my river seat the rear end of my car was destroyed. The driver of the truck that rear ended me took off. I was left to reap the consequences.

On site of the accident, I was given tickets for careless driving, Failure to stop, and failure to properly obey posted signage. Unfortunately, only a couple of the witnesses had seen the truck that hit me, which did not help when the police were handling me. I was blamed completely for the accident along with a totaled car to deal with.

I live alone at 19 without a healthy relationship with my family it has of course hit me incredibly hard. I was thankfully able to refund the money i had spent of my college tuition as a communications technologist and started working at a local factory. Although it was a help at the beginning, my saved money is quickly depleting and am in dangerous need of funds.

Honestly any amount helps in the slightest way. My biggest hope is to have enough money to actually pursue and obtain a college degree.

 

I have a pool set up with PayPal if you wish to help me out. Thank You!!

Single Mom ordered to pay Court Costs

I am a single hardworking Mom.  I was taken back to court by my daughter’s father because he didn’t want to pay child support.  I initially tried to handle this on my own because I didn’t have the funds to pay for a lawyer.  After a couple of months I was so overwhelmed I had no choice but to borrow funds and hire a lawyer.  Once I did that my Ex buried me in paperwork and motions to avoid paying support.  This process started in March of 2017 and by March 2018 we were still no further ahead. His intention to bury me financially was working.  By June I had to self represent because I could no longer afford to pay for a lawyer.  My lawyer’s bill was up to $,9000.  But to make matters worse, he forced us to trial.  I had to try to represent myself and thought I was doing okay until the Judge ordered me to pay him court costs in the amount of $35,000.  It was a completely unfair judgement, but because I didn’t have a lawyer I was ignored.  His lawyer wouldn’t even listen to my pleads for leniency.  I have been ordered to pay forthwith.  I have been making payments to pay my lawyer fees and not only don’t have the funds to pay the court costs but now I only have 60 days.  At that point I am so afraid as to what can happen.  I have no one that I can borrow the money from or anyone I can ask for help.  I am embarrassed to have to ask for help, and to post this request, but I have no other alternative as I don’t have enough income to qualify for any kind of institutional loan.  I am trying to get a second job and desperate and would so appreciate any help that any kind and generous souls would offer to keep my daughter and myself from being homeless.  I am trying to keep my daughters name out of the records, but could show a copy of the court order to those who need me to prove this is a real dilemma that I am trying to deal with.

Drowning Student

Hi. My name is Taylor and I am currently in university, studying communications. I am working hard to make this experience the best one of my life, but I can’t seem to shake all the debt that I have accumulated. I am currently working two part time jobs on top of going to school, but even they do not make ends meet. Rent, Credit card, utilities, phone bill. Everything is piling up and I am drowning in my debt. I don’t think I will be able to come up with this month’s rent because of the other bills and lack of funds that I have. 

With my two jobs, I am working 35+ hours a week (minimum wage), I am in class 15 hours a week and the rest of the time I am studying to keep my grades up.  The amount of debt that I have accumulated is causing me extreme levels of stress and my grades are suffering as a result. To break down my various bill payments this month, I have rent at $600, utilities which are usually around $150, phone bill $95, credit card sitting at $3,000 (which is down from what I paid for tuition). I am doing my best to pay down my debts as well as pay off my bills, but it is not working right now. If I put most of my pay on my credit card, the interest doesn’t affect it, but if I use my pay to make rent, my phone bill and utilities then I am unable to put enough on my credit card debt to counteract the interest rates.

I have recently looked into getting a third job for the month of December when I am on break from school, so hopefully that helps somewhat, but right now I am struggling and the third job wont be able to help me make this month’s rent.

I am optimistic that the people of the world are in a giving mood this holiday season and are able to help me out. I would not basking for help if I did not need it the most. I have waited longer than I should have to reach out to someone and now I am in trouble. I am begging for any help that you could offer. I am in dire need of some sort of assistance and anything would help me.
