Single mother in urgent need of help for essentials and child’s needs

​Hello to everyone in this community. I am reaching out to you today because I find myself in a situation I never imagined I would be in. As a single mother who is currently unemployed, I am facing an incredibly difficult time trying to keep a roof over my child’s head and provide the basic necessities that every child deserves. I am writing this plea for help with a lot of humility, hoping that there are kind souls out there who can support us during this crisis.

​Right now, my biggest worry is our housing situation. I am struggling to cover my rent, and the fear of losing our home is something that keeps me awake every night. Beyond the rent, the cost of living has become overwhelming. I need to ensure that my child has healthy food on the table and that I can keep up with the utility bills so we have electricity and water. Being without a job has stripped away my stability, and despite my best efforts to find new opportunities, the legal challenges I am currently facing regarding my child’s rights have made it almost impossible to manage everything at once.

​My goal is to raise $500. This amount would be a complete life-changer for us right now. It would allow me to pay a significant portion of my rent and clear some of the overdue bills for our home. More importantly, it would allow me to go to the store and buy enough groceries, diapers, and other essential items for my child to last us for the coming weeks. Having this financial cushion would give me the breathing room I so desperately need to focus on the upcoming legal battle for my child’s future and well-being.

​I want to be clear that I am a hardworking person, but life has thrown some very hard challenges my way all at once. My child is 1,5 years old and I’m constantly trying to find a new job. Every single dollar donated will go directly toward our survival – specifically for shelter, food, and my child’s immediate needs. I believe in the power of community and the kindness of strangers. If you are not able to donate, I would appreciate your prayers and positive thoughts as we navigate this storm.

​I have set up a PayPal.me link to make the process safe and simple for anyone who wishes to help. I am also able to receive support via Revolut if that is more convenient for you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story and for considering helping a mother and child in their time of need. Your generosity means the world to us and gives me the hope I need to keep going

Single Dad & 10-Year-Old Son Facing Homelessness

Hello, my name is Ulli, and I’m a heartbroken single father reaching out with everything I have left. My 10-year-old son and I are staring down the very real threat of homelessness after more than two years of unemployment, and I’m desperately fighting to keep us together and safe.

Every night I watch my little boy try to be strong. He’s only 10, but he’s already learned what it feels like to worry about whether we’ll still have a home next month. When the bills pile up and I have to stretch the last few groceries, the quiet fear in his eyes absolutely shatters me. He deserves to feel safe, to laugh and play like a normal child, and to have a dad who can provide for him, not one constantly battling to keep us off the streets. These past two years have taken so much from us, but I refuse to let this situation steal his future.

That’s why I’ve made a firm decision to keep fighting. Instead of waiting for another rejection letter, I’m determined to start my own small clothing business. I have done research and have made a real plan to begin with affordable, quality every day clothing that people actually want. This business can represents our lifeline, a chance to finally create stable income and rebuild our lives with dignity. But right now, we’re drowning in overdue rent, mounting debts, and basic survival needs. Without immediate help, we won’t even have a roof over our heads to work from.

I’ve already tried all the traditional ways, job applications, applying for business grants, startup loans, and assistance programs, but I keep getting rejections. Time is running out fast for us. My son shouldn’t have to live with this constant fear and uncertainty any more.

The $50,000 I’m humbly asking for would:

  • Clear urgent debts and overdue rent to stop the eviction threat and prevent homelessness.
  • Cover essential living costs so I can focus fully on launching the business.
  • Provide the critical startup funding for inventory, equipment, website/setup, and initial marketing to get the clothing business generating income as quickly as possible.

I’m not asking for charity forever. I’m asking for a compassionate hand up so I can stand on my own two feet again and become the provider my boy needs. Once this clothing business is off the ground, I’ll work tirelessly to support us and, one day, pay it forward to help other struggling families.

If you can donate anything at all, it will mean the world to a father who just wants to protect and provide for his 10-year-old son. If you can’t give right now, please share this story. Every share increases the chance that someone who can help will see it.

From the depths of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read about our painful situation. Your kindness and belief in us could be the turning point that saves my son’s childhood and gives us both a real chance for a better life.

Ukrainian trying to survive alone in new country

I’m Polina – a Ukrainian living in the Netherlands.

Because of the war, I had to leave my home and everything I knew behind. The journey was not just difficult, it was traumatic, and I’m still living with the effects of it every day.

Now I’m here, trying to rebuild my life completely from zero. I work hard, but it often feels like I’m just surviving, not living. I’m alone in a new country, without family or support, and it’s honestly very overwhelming.

I struggle with depression and the emotional impact of everything I’ve been through. Some days are really heavy, and even simple things take a lot of energy.

But despite all of this, I still want to move forward. I want to study, grow, and build a stable, meaningful life here. I don’t want to just survive – I want a future.

Right now, I simply can’t afford education on my own. Mostly because for Ukrainians cost 3 times higher than for Europeans, around 9000€ per year and I barely have money for normal life and food.

If you choose to support me, you’re not just helping financially – you’re giving me a real chance to rebuild my life, step by step 🤍

Thank you for reading, and for being part of my journey.

Always wanted a car but life doesn’t want me to have one

Hi, maybe I’ll say a few words about myself first. I’m 20 years old, I live in Europe. I’m currently studying medical engineering and work part-time on medical transport. I also volunteer in an organisation which provides on-site medical aid during mostly religious events, but not only, we also secure many other public events.

 

Sadly I’ve been suffering from a few serious psychiatric disorders since I was around 14 or 15 years old, but no one paid enough attention to notice that I’m not just being a shy and bad kid. Even after I was diagnosed with panic anxiety disorder at 18 yo parents refused to believe that I can be sick (especially “in the head”).

 

At 19 years old I got into a relationship which was very great and made me happy… Only in the beginning. Soon my ex-girlfriend started exploiting my undiagnosed back then BPD, locking me in a vicious cycle of anxiety driven “love” towards her. She would often break down and accuse me of being in the wrong, even if she did something wrong, guilt-tripping me, she would say that she hates me and break up with me, only to say she didn’t mean it and loves me, after I had a mental breakdown – each and every time – it happened multiple times during the relationship. She used this mechanic to drain money from me – she made me so afraid that any “no” I would say to her would make her leave me, I would fullfil any of her expensive wishes right away.

 

This even landed me in the psych ward a year ago, where they started suspecting I might be suffering from a personality disorder. Even after being signed off, this continued for 4 months more. After I realised what a horrible trap I have fallen into, and with the help of my friends, I managed to break free. But in the meantime she managed to bankrupt me. If not for her, I’d already have the car of my dreams.

 

Around 7 months ago I met my current girlfriend who is very supportive, and I’m in therapy, have been properly diagnosed and being properly medicated. Sadly, around the same time I’ve suffered a back injury, which paralysed my legs in november/december last year, and even though I recovered from almost complete paralysis, I have been suffering pain and weakness from the waist down since. Worse, I’m currently in the diagnostic process for systemic autoimmune diseases that might also be attacking my nervous system.

 

And even now the cycle of misfortune doesn’t end. My parents have been in a conflict since I was a little child. I remember that long ago my father would even physically abuse my mother. As time passed those fights turned into mostly verbal stuff. But around a month ago, during another fight, my father destroyed my mothers tree in the backyard, and when I tried to fix it hoping it would recover, he came over and cut up all the branches. In revenge, my mom kicked his cat, and dad warned her that he would do the same to her. Even though there was no physical stuff between them, this stuff moved me so much, I stopped feeling safe in my own house. I told them I don’t want to stay there, and I’d like to move out and have their support atleast for my medication and some food, but they refused, calling me an ungrateful brat, bad kid, etc. etc. After I left the house taking my cat and my stuff, they even said they would place me back in the psych ward if I sued them for alimony.

 

So now I’m left struggling to make the ends meet, waiting for any progress in the alimony case, working as much as I can while also studying, but it’s not tragic yet, it’s hard, but I’m still managing somehow. And it might be weird that while I could be asking money for anything like food, housing, meds, etc., I’m asking for money to buy a car. But It’s because I’m managing – hardly, but I am – to cover my mandatory needs, and I always wanted a car. A used one, of course, manual, 6 gears in case I had to drive 100km again for an MRI because waiting times where I live are so long that they expect you to die before you get the MRI done. But 5 gears would be alright too – atleast I could easily drive to my little local community at the place which I grew up, which is why I also want a car so badly.

 

Ideally, my “dream” car would be around 6000 USD, but my “second dream” car would be around 3000 USD. But honestly? Any amount will help.

 

I know my story is quite pathetic, but it is what it is – I too would have done everything to avoid ending like this if I knew what was to come. So please, if 100 people would donate 60 USD – you’d make my wish come true – I know it’s easy asking for money, but they say that good deeds return to you. Maybe I will help you one day once I finish my studies?

 

Thank you for reading all that, and please – if you are willing to help, any amount is appreciated, and I will be very grateful for any generosity.

 

God bless you kind people.

Help Me To Move Out

Hello everyone! ヾ(≧▽≦*)o

My name is Hilda, I’m 19 years old, and I’m from Germany.

For several months now, I’ve been trying to move out so I can focus on my graduation and build a future for myself. The place I’m living in now isn’t good for my mental health, and I feel stuck. It’s a very remote area and the house is like really really dirty and in really bad condition. It’s not a place where I can find peace, feel calm and focus.

On top of that, I don’t have the best relationship with one of my parents, which makes living here challenging. Even though I try my best, it is hard. If I want to pursue my dreams and have a good future, I need a place where I can focus on my goals and my future.

I’ve tried everything – finding a job, becoming self-employed – but it’s been very difficult as a student. There aren’t many jobs in my area that fit a student schedule and also cover the cost of living. I’ve done my best to make things work, but I personally think it won’t work living here.

I hesitated to ask for help, but it seems like my last option. I’m hoping to move out for six months. During this time, I will focus on graduating and on making my own money. I know that having my own place and peace will make a big difference in my mental health and for achieving my dreams.

Here’s the estimated cost:

Rent (6 months): ~ €7,000 (6 × €1,150)

Security deposit: €2,000

Other monthly costs: €3,000 (6 × €500)

Furniture & apartment setup: €3,000

Other essentials: €5,000 (clothes – I have two pieces and they are already worn out, a new MacBook to work and study, school supplies, etc.)

Emergency buffer: €2,000

I have already found several places which would fit in this budget, but I need the money first before asking.

I would be so so so SO grateful to anyone willing to support me in achieving this dream. Even a small contribution makes a huge difference. This move might seem like nothing important or a small step, but it will have a significant impact on my life and my future.

I know there are people who need help more than I do, but in order to give value to others, I first need to help myself. If I have nothing to give, I can’t give anything at all.

Thank you so so much for reading this, and for anyone who decides to help. I will never ever forget you and will be grateful for ever! ~\(≧▽≦)/~

A Parent of Three Trying to Keep a Roof Over Our Heads

Hello,

This is not easy for me to write. I have always been someone who helped others when I could. A lot! Today, I am the one who needs help.

I am a parent of three children and currently facing severe financial hardship. I was always fighting, but lately I find it very hard. I am suffering. Many things, I don’t want to tell. Despite my efforts to improve the situation, nothing seems to be working right now. I am doing everything I can, but I have reached a point where I cannot survive this alone anymore.

At the moment, I am staying in a very small room. I am grateful that I at least have a place to sleep, but this situation is temporary and may not last much longer. I cannot provide stability and safety for my children. I would love to do it.

I would love to stabilize our situation and continue working toward long-term solutions. No, that is not exactly what I need, I am looking for a stable solution, yes, but I want to get rid of the fear. And I want to get back my strength to handle everything on my own, as always.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean more than I can express. Even sharing this campaign would help.

If you choose to support us, please know that your kindness will directly help three children and a parent who is trying their absolute best not to give up.

Thank you for reading and for caring.

Help me finish my last year of studies

Hi, and thank you for taking the time to read my story.

I’m a 23-year-old third-year early childhood education student from Finland, and I’m just one year away from graduating. Becoming an early childhood educator has been my dream for years. I truly love working with children and making a positive impact in my community.

Unfortunately, my government changed its policies meaning I can no longer receive benefits to complete my final year of studies. I’ve been applying for part-time jobs, but the job market where I live is extremely competitive, with about a thousand applicants per position. Without previous education or experience, it’s been nearly impossible to get a job.

I calculated that I would need approximately €20,000 to cover my living expenses and finish my last year of studies. If I stop my studies now, I won’t receive my degree, which would make it hard to enter the job market. Completing this final year would allow me to qualify, start working full-time, and become financially independent.

I know it’s a big ask and I’m not asking this lightly. I’ve explored every option I can on my own. Any support, big or small would directly help me stay in school, graduate, and begin my career.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart <3

Really Struggling after being scammed

Hi, I am from Ireland and I need help big time.

I am really really struggling right now mentally as the only reason I’m still here is for my sister.

i beg anyone that can, would you please please consider helping me so i can get through this dark time.

The Way of the Heart: Help me to bring Sacred Teachings to Physical Printed Form

Following the voice of the heart, even when it requires courage, is the most meaningful value guiding my life right now. Through this choice, my soul essence becomes more deeply embodied, breath by breath, day by day. I am nourished by nature, by beauty, and by sharing lived experiences from the path of awakening. This is not something I do on the side of my life, it is my life.

Since 2015, I have been translating the channeled teachings of Jesus from English into Hungarian. The original series is called The Way of Mastery, a body of mystical teachings that gently realign the mind, heal the heart, and awaken inner truth. Five books from this series are already available in Hungarian, supporting many years of sincere inner work for readers.

The first book of the series is The Way of the Heart (A Szív Útja in Hungarian). I worked on translating this book for over two years, and I have carefully reviewed it three to four times since then. Last year, I also facilitated a one year online group where we journeyed through this book together, chapter by chapter, while I continued proofreading and refining the translation in preparation for publication.

Witnessing how this book brought peace, emotional softening, and genuine inner transformation into the lives of the group members changed something in me. It made it clear that I do not need to strive for perfection any longer. The teachings already work. They already reach people’s hearts. The book is ready.

And yet, I want to be honest. It would truly sadden me if something this valuable could not take physical form simply because of a lack of financial support. I feel a deep inner calling to bring this book into the world as a printed volume, and alongside that calling lives a very human longing, to experience what it feels like to be supported while offering something meaningful.

The community of the man who originally channeled these teachings is unfortunately unable to provide financial backing. However, I have received exclusive rights to publish The Way of Mastery series in Hungarian. This feels like both a responsibility and a tender hope I am holding with care.

There is something profoundly different about holding a physical book, turning its pages, and allowing the teachings to meet you away from screens. I can already see myself holding The Way of the Heart in my hands, and I sense that its birth would be accompanied by quiet grace.

The total cost of publishing the first book is $2,000.

  • covering interior layout and typesetting,
  • cover preparation,
  • print ready formatting,
  • ISBN registration and publishing administration,
  • print on demand setup fees,
  • print on demand storage and distribution costs.

Every contribution, no matter the size, helps this book move closer to being born.

If this project speaks to you, I receive your support with sincere gratitude. Even reading these words means something to me. And I wish that whatever generosity flows from you returns in the form you most need, gently, truthfully, and in its right time.

I have never asked for anything in my entire life…till today.

I have never asked for anything in my entire life.
I’m a giver…I’ve always given without ever asking for anything in return, and that’s why… this… doing this for myself is hard. Very hard.
Asking for something, asking for help… very hard.
But here I am.

My story begins in 2011. After a terrible flood in my area, my girlfriend and I decided to leave everything behind and build something in her country.
We left with very little money in our pockets. We loaded what we had into the car, our dog, and we left without looking back.
I had to leave my parents behind, hoping to see them as often as possible.

After six months of difficult searching and hard work, I managed to open a small shop, immediately loved by the locals in that city: a little grocery store with traditional products from my homeland.
It was going so well that in 2014, after countless requests from customers and my girlfriend (as it was her dream), I convinced myself, went to the bank, and asked for a loan to open a restaurant that would be one with the shop.

I committed myself to the bank in a country and a language I didn’t know, because I was sure of my support…my partner.
Unfortunately, three months after opening the restaurant, in 2015, I discovered that my girlfriend was cheating on me with the chef in my kitchen.

In one day, I lost both her and the chef. Looking back as I write this, I smile…but at the time, it was tragic. I found myself alone with a mortgage to pay, employees, and a job that had me working 6 days a week and on weekends up to 18–20 hours a day, with a dog to care for… but I would never give up.

As if that weren’t enough, I started feeling unwell: a violent cough, sleepless nights, heavy sweating, risking my life, because the doctor gave me the wrong medication without even examining me: “Ventolin,” because he thought I had asthma. He didn’t tell me it should be taken only once a day, and I took it five times in an hour… risking a heart attack…my hearth was racing like hell.

Thanks to a colleague, I discovered bioresonance—a method based on frequencies. Through that method, I discovered I had contracted Legionella. It saved my life. From that moment on, bioresonance became the only way I trusted to take care of myself, after traditional medicine had betrayed me.

A quick note: since I was 16, I’ve suffered from tremors in my hands and arms. The doctor told me that after I turned 40, I would have to take medication to try to block it—but I’ll come back to this later.

Going back to the day I lost those two people: I closed the restaurant for 24 hours. I had to think. I decided to completely redo the menu (a huge risk) and step into the kitchen (I wasn’t a chef)—but at least temporarily, it was the only option.

From 2015 to 2020, I never left the kitchen again. I had several second chefs, but I couldn’t take the risk anymore. From 2015 to 2020, I saw everything: employees stealing money from the register, people showing up to work drunk, people not showing up on Sundays with every table reserved, times when I ended up cooking, washing dishes, serving (very difficult for me with my hands), taking orders… but I never gave up.

In 2019, I decided to take out another loan. I needed to raise the level of my staff because I couldn’t go on like that. I hired “trusted” people, but they cost a lot more because I had to bring them away from jobs they already had. This time the loan was larger, more demanding, but I always thought only a pandemic could stop me… and a few months later, it arrived…

Many restaurants in my city, overwhelmed by expenses, shut down—bankruptcy. Some sold their homes. Some even put plates and knives up for sale online to pay their debts. I tried to hang on, but the owner of the restaurant premises didn’t do much to help me, while others were lucky enough to sign rent-free agreements for at least a year. I got only two months. The cherry on top? With Legionella and Covid possibility of death was 90%…for months I lived thinking that I would not see my parents again…luckily thanks to bioresonance I managed to put Legionella to sleep just 1 month before catching Covid in December 2021.

Nine years of hard work vanished in seven months of Covid.

On top of that, fully aware of the situation, the chef who worked with me in the kitchen, the “trusted” one…tried to take the restaurant for free by speaking directly with the property owner. My lawyer saved me at the last moment, but I couldn’t do anything anymore. Either I closed, or I “sold off” the restaurant to my cook, who made me a very low offer, knowing I wouldn’t get another one. I accepted with a heavy heart, thinking I would somehow manage.

But that wasn’t what happened.

What happened from 2020 to 2022 is hard for me to talk about, things that don’t even happen in movies. All I can say is that instead of thinking about myself and my debts, I ended up in a relationship where I literally saved the lives of two people. I saved the life of her parent, and I saved her house (the walls were full of gas, it had become a bomb, and the gas technicians couldn’t explain how that house was still standing). If I hadn’t been there, two people would have died at two different times, the parent would have lost everything, and the house would have exploded with everyone inside.

I may sound mystical, but I know someone led me there.

But those same people, on an ordinary day, threw me out of the house because I was no longer “good enough” for one of them. Overwhelmed by despair, I returned to my home country and fell into a deep depression for at least two years.

Now I’m trying to rise again.

A few months ago, two people I helped with some work gave me a great gift: after seeing me (with my tremor) and hearing my story, they decided to advance the money so I could buy a bioresonance machine, so I could use it to calm my tremor. It was a loan, and every month I’m paying it back, but it’s an expensive machine.

But I’m me :)) and instead of using it only for myself, I started helping everyone I can. To this day, about 90% of the results have been positive, on who I tested,  but I’m not a doctor: I can’t diagnose and I can’t cure. So I decided to study and earn a certificate as a naturopathic practitioner, because I want to help as many people as possible.

All the good that has been given to me, I want to multiply it for everyone I will meet.

This is my current situation:
My debt to the bank doesn’t allow me to have a car. Since 2022, I haven’t had one, and because of that I only leave home to buy groceries once a week. I spend all my time doing small online jobs (I can’t do more because of my tremor) and studying to open my practice.
I also have the debt for the bioresonance machine.

Talking about figures makes no sense, I don’t see it as respectful toward you, because they’re too high. I owe the bank hundreds of thousands of euros, courts, and more… but I’m not giving up.

I know that somehow I can get out of this. My focus right now is to stay alive to help as many people as possible. I know this is my path.

If you’ve made it this far, you’ve already given me so much “your time” and I’m infinitely grateful.

I’ve never asked anything of anyone, and I’ve never asked for money in any crowdfunding, because doing it so openly would have thrown me back into depression. It would have felt like a defeat.

I decided to try here, instinctively, I feel here I can, by keeping my privacy, so today I chose to tell my story.

The last thing I want to tell you is that I will dedicate all donations to one purpose:
to help as many people as possible.

Even if nothing comes in, I will NEVER stop.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Please help me help Lumi: Saving my cat from pain

My Story: Hi everyone, I am reaching out because I have reached a point where hard work alone is no longer enough. I urgently need support to protect the living being I love most.

Please help me help Lumi My rescue cat, Lumi, is turning 7 soon. She had a traumatic start in life – she was abandoned – but since she came to me, she has blossomed into a loving, playful soul. She saved me in many ways, and now I need to save her.

Lumi urgently needs dental surgery. Her teeth are inflamed, and while cats are masters at hiding pain, I know she is suffering. The estimated cost for this operation is €1,000. It breaks my heart daily to see her discomfort. I want to book this surgery immediately to take her pain away, but I simply do not have the funds available right now.

The Financial Trap You might wonder why I cannot afford this. 5 years ago, my fiancée and I moved from Finland to Austria for a fresh start. We arrived in early 2020, straight into the first COVID lockdown. Our plans collapsed. To survive and finance our start without income, I heavily overdrafted my Finnish bank account.

For five years, I have been paying this off monthly without fail. I work hard and try to earn extra wherever I can. But with rising inflation, rent increases, and year-end bills, I am hitting a wall. I still carry €4,000 in debt from that time. This debt is a massive psychological burden that affects our daily life and relationship, leaving no room for emergencies like Lumi’s surgery.

How you can help I am asking for financial support to cover these two burdens:

  1. €1,000 for Lumi’s dental surgery (This is my absolute top priority so she can be pain-free).

  2. €4,000 to clear the remaining debt, so we can finally close this painful chapter of the last 5 years.

Please help me help Lumi. I just want her to be happy and healthy again, and for us to finally lift this mental weight off our shoulders. Any donation, no matter how small, means the world to us. paypal.me/Dimitri1175

Thank you for your kindness and for your help.
Words can not express, how much this means to me.

Single Dad sinking

Hello, I have never asked complete strangers for money before, and this is an indicator of the trouble I am in. It’s not easy.

I’m 58 years old. I was born and raised in the UK but have been living in Italy for over three decades. I’m the father of a 14-year-old boy who lives with me 7 days a week. His mother and I separated 10 years ago (her decision – she wanted another child, I didn’t). We have joint custody and used to have specific days when our son was to stay with one parent or the other. So far, so normal. But then three years ago she changed her job, accepted a transfer to anther town, and our son decided to live with me full time. My ex partner has never made any contribution to his upkeep.

I work freelance. I’m actually quite busy at the moment, though my work dries up a lot over the summer months. Also a couple of my contracts will pay only when I finish the work (so probably in late spring). I can’t work more because I also have to be there for my son (cooking meals, food shopping, following his work at school, etc).

My father died last year and my mother is in a care home with dementia. I had always assumed that, upon their deaths, I would inherit my part (a third) from the sale of their house, but all that money has now been spent on the care home.

My Dad would give me money on occasions when I needed it (“Never go to a loan shark” was his frequent warning). I have asked for small loans from a couple of relatives over the last year (and it’s a humbling and humiliating thing to do), one of whom made it clear that, ok but it was most certainly a loan, and the other told me these words which have remained with me ever since: “you can’t live off the back of other people” – I wanted to reply to him “but equally I can’t live without asking for help at the moment”. So, they helped a little, gave me a few weeks/months of oxygen, but made it clear that I couldn’t really ask them for any more.

I lead a simple life, I don’t eat out, nor buy clothes, nor go away on trips. I have a car which is very old and barely road-worthy, my dishwasher has recently broken down but I can’t afford to repair or replace it. A similar story for my glasses (I’ve becomne an expert and regular superglue repairer). My son himself told me that he doesn’t want anything for Christmas and that I should save my money. I still have 6 years of mortgage payments to go on my small flat. Making those monthly payments is challenging, let’s say. I’ve fallen behind with building maintenance payments and other bills and frankly I don’t know how I’m going to manage. I just want to accompany my son to adult life, and hopefully a decent job, and then I will have fulfilled my responsibilities and hopefully he will be able to fend for himself.

I have tried to analyse the reasons for my money shortage. They are I believe the result of various factors: my separation (meaning that after ten years of living together I was no longer paying for only half of the bills and expenses but having to pay everything); the precarious nature of my work (I teach English privately); the Covid pandemic (my work was decimated and has never completely returned to pre-pandemic levels); the costs of raising a son alone; and the increasing cost of living in general.

Thanks for making it so far in my story. If you can help me at all (with any amount), I will be eternally grateful to you from the bottom of my heart. I hope one day to be in the situation to help others going through a hard time.

I am writing this message to find if anyone can helped me to go to the next season of my life.

I was working 2 years ago in a garden.

This structure closed and I didn’t find something that suit me as this place was.

So I did little jobs for very short periods of time. I am still looking for some places that could hire me.

But in the meanwhile I am wondering if I could go faster to make my project alive. Two years ago I was taking a class for a work to take care of animals. It was fine. I was working and paying my own courses. When everything stoped I couldn’t carry on. Money was missing to pay. So I stoped.

Here is my request. I would like to have help for several things. Not only that I want to finish my studies, I would like to pay back people that helped me trough the transition I was crossing. I would like to pay some bills that are pending (like car bills, house bills..).
I would like also to invest this money in specific places (I though around 10 % about what you are going to give me). And I would like also to invest in some tools that I need for my futur work.

And finally I need also to sterilise 2 stray female cats I take care of in my area. They are having kittens every year. I sterilise an other one, but there are 2 left. I also need money for the food. I feed around 10, or a bit more cats with the little money I have for now. So help could be great.

Finally I can say that I need around 5 000. It could be more, it could be less.

This is mainly what I aim to do in a short term time. But as I told you, I intend to make this money work in several ways. Builting is my goal. And I have so many others ideas and projects, that if I had a certain amount of money, I would share with others and create work around me.

So I hope this could interest you.

Help in a difficult situation.

I am Iryna Hugova, a Ukrainian, I am 62 years old. I live in the Czech Republic, rent one room. I work, and I have 11 months left until retirement. I fell for a scammer. Through persuasion and discussion, they convinced me to take out a bank loan. They robbed me. The loans need to be repaid, but I don’t have enough money. I need another $1,200. Please help me. I owe $25,000. Please help me collect $1,200 by December 20th. I already have the other half of the $1,000. How hard it is to ask at my age. My blood pressure has risen because of these nerves. Today I went to the doctor – they measured 190 over 117. Now I feel a noise in my head. Help me, kind people. I thank you.

Нищета в старости.

Я Iryna Hugova, украинка, мне 62 года. Живу в Ческой Республице, снимаю 1 комнату. Работаю, до пенсии осталось 11 месяцев.  Все было хорошо. Мне хотелось купить себе квартиру в Албании, чтобы жить у моря на пенсии. Я поверила финансовому експерту, вложив деньги на биржу. Еще одолжила 25000 долларов. Надо долги платить. а у меня нет денег. Идут празники Рождество, думаю не о празниках – как заплатить долги. Еще я на больничном 3 месяца. Болят ноги и колено. Этот експерт больше не звонит и не отвечает. Помогите мне пожалуйста. Не знаю как буду дальше жить.  Всех вас благодарю за то что зашли ко мне и посочувствовали. Мы все люди и в жизни бывает и хорошо и плохо. Всегда надо быть человеком.

Дай Господь всем здоровье, счастье и любви. Любовь спасет наш мир.
