(Financial) Crisis for me and my girlfriend in our Lives

Me (23 y.) and my girlfriend (24 y.) are having the hardest time in our lives right now.. Through abuse in both of our families, mental and physical, as well as the fact that we didn’t share the traditional thinking as they had, we have lost full connection to our own families/relatives and were left on our own without places to stay. We managed on our own for some time but soon enough it went all downhill for many different reasons. Going into the everyday struggle unexpectedly and so unprepared,plus all the expenses for surviving and apart from that was added the bad state of our mental state through all of this is too much for us… After all that happened,  Currently, we are living in the lowest priced house that we could have rent at the moment. Apart from the rent our jobs aren’t even close  for it to be enough for us to afford the basic living.. We are cutting out much of our food that we need (it’s not about wanting anymore), and we had to take a loan for some payments as some unexpected expenses came out from nowhere…

 

As i have said, we are currently working for relatively one of the lowest paid jobs and it is nowhere enough for what we need right now…i am currently looking for higher paid jobs (as a second choice)  and am willing (and have already started) to do everything that i can in order to not to be in this situation in the future, but there will be no future for me or my girlfriend like this because i can’t pay my bills, loan (of 200$) and can’t even place the food for u on our plates….

And Now with my loan, the bill and the pay for the rent are all coming up together, plus some the trauma that we have experienced mentally (even tho  i am trying everything) i can’t come out of this situation.. i just can’t, no matter what i think of and whatever i do it’s hopeless. And all of this is effecting me in such a deep level that i don’t know if i can maintain my current job like this. i don’t know what to do, i am desperate, helpless, and am starting to have some mental breakdowns throughout the day thinking about all of these.. I just don’t know what to do. I have come here, to you, to ask to at least maintain anything that i have left… I am ashamed of my situation that i have ended up like this and that i have to ask for this…and every time i come “home”, i can’t even look in my girlfriends eyes anymore.. I don’t know how to tell her that i have nothing that i can solve this situation with and it makes me feel so much shame, as she is relying on me as well (even tho she’s trying everything for us to come out of this, and it hurts me to know that she’s feeling the same way)..

We asked everyone we knew (we could ask) for help and even tho we don’t have many friends some of them  really helped us through with whatever they could as they knew our current situation but they cannot help us any further…

 

Thank you if you read my story, and sorry if it was in any way confusing.. I just don’t want to be in this situation anymore, am tired of finding the solutions to the  impossible so i am asking for your help, and  if you can help us in any way, please help, we would be forever grateful to you…I am tearing up writing this, as i have never expected to be asking help from people i don’t know.   I don’t want to even ask for anything more then for the amount, that can cover for at least this month’s expenses, that i cannot possibly handle,which is the main reason i have come here… if you can help us in any way possible, i will be eternally thankful, for each and every one of you, for aiding me in this difficult time that i am in…

HOPE THE SIZE OF THE MUSTARD SEED

Hi there,
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. My family life has been experiencing a lot of misfortunate events for some years now. I’m in a dark and hopeless situation and feels like this would never end.
2018, the year I decided to try my luck here abroad as a house help, thinking it would help me and my family with some of our financial expenses. I have been receiving a really small allowance and I have to send money every month to help with my family’s expenses back home. It helps us in a way but it’s not even enough to support solely just the medical expenses of my mother. Apart from that, my father is also been dealing with his own sickness.
Two years prior to the year I came to work here, I was diagnosed with anxiety disorder and depression. I felt so hopeless and felt like I’m losing it and I’m going crazy. I almost gave up and end my life but the thought of leaving my family behind without any help gave me the urge to fight for my life and dreams. It was also when a lot of problems started to challenge us and pile up. My father used to work abroad, so my sisters grew up without him most of our lives, we only have spent 2 christmases with him as he was always away for work to provide for our family. He gave us a comfortable life and provided us with everything that we need. My mother was the one who was left to look after us. It has always been our family setup.
He was supposed to be working still as my sisters and I are in school. By the time of his yearly medical check up to know that he is still fit to work, they saw a clot in his artery and told him that he badly needs a surgery. The company decided that he is not allowed to work anymore, just like that, all of his dreams for us was shattered. The medical care works differently from where I live. You always have to pay a huge amount of money to be able to get through a surgery or any procedure that would require a delicate and thorough process, like a heart procedure.
He had savings left so we decided to invest it to a trading that would possibly help us with the money that we need for our household, school and my parents medical expenses. I know it’s not the smartest thing to do but we were so desperate and gave our trust fully. It was a close friend of mine whom I really trust that invited us to join Bitcoin. We fell right into it as majority of our church members are part of the trading . We could also see proof through them that it works. It was half a year that we have been receiving the fruit of my father’s investment. My parents had a bakery from the money and it helped us with our expenses. At that time, we have a hope that things would be better and we will get through what had happened. The only family stress that we are dealing with was where to find the money ASAP for my father’s heart procedure.
And there goes another problem, I received a text from my friend that our stock broker informed them that there is an ongoing problem with the investments and she couldn’t send the money for that month. We waited for the next month and the following months and we haven’t had any updates to what really happened and never got the money back from them.
We tried our best to get through another rough patch and instead focus on what’s more important, my parents health. We look for options and help as the money that was needed for his surgery is too expensive. Asked for peple’s help went through some of the medical organizations that we could find. When I was there I was the one who usually goes with him to to hospitals and healthcare that could possibly help us with his medical expenses. I remember waking up at 3 in the morning so we could be there as early as possible to be able to be in the slot. We did that for such a long time, going back and forth hoping that we could find help for him. But all of the efforts and stress led to nothing. We have learned that we would never afford the amount he needs as he have to personally fund more than half of the procedure fee and only little help would be provided from the healthcare as it is a really expensive surgery.
A college friend of mine decided to help and asked me if I want to work for her as a kitchen helper in Singapore because she works there as a sous chef. That required a certain amount of money with all the processing and the ticket to go there as well. I have to borrow some money to my cousin so I could be able to start. So I went there and worked for her but not even a couple of months, I was sent home because the possibility of working there full time is really hard especially for an undergrad and unskilled worker like me. They prefer the ones that has more experience. I went home and felt depressed. Days of not wanting to leave the house became months. But then one day I decided to stand up for myself and not let those failures in my life to have the power over me.
I feel like the time is running out. Both of my parents are currently dealing with their own health problems. My mother has diabetes and kidney problem. She has been experiencing stomach pain and losing a lot of weight and we dont know what the cause is. Also my sisters school expenses adds up with all the stress that we are dealing now. I feel like I’m on the edge of breaking down again and just trying my best to get through it every single day. I have sleepless nights thinking that Í would wake up the next day and would realize that it’s too late, I haven’t done anything to save my family.
I love my family so much and they mean the world to me. I hope I could do something to ease the pain and stress of my parents. I’m at the darkest and saddest season of my life. I feel like there’s no way out. I’m in debt with my employer as they are too nice to lend me some money whenever I have to send extra for our family’s needs. That’s why I came here out of desperation. Begging for your help.
Please please I’m knocking on your doors, any amount would be a great help. I don’t want to wake up and realize that it’s too late and they are gone. That I havent done anything to help both of them. Believe me, I am trying my best, its just that the salary that I have been receiving is not enough to support the whole family. It would be great to start all over again and forget all the unfortunate events that we have experienced. I still have this tiny hope inside me, that better days are coming. I’m trying my best to look on the bright side. If given a chance I would want to get back to school so I would have more edge to find a good paying job that could help me and my family.

Thank you very much for reading.

Wrongly accused Mother of 4 children has to pay 5000€ or go to jail

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Anna Westroem. I’m a college student from Germany and live together with my single mother and 3 siblings. Especially my mother is the person I looked up to, always being a cheerful, hard working women who is dearly loved by everyone.

I created this donation because I try to give something back to my mother now that she’s more desperate than ever before, as she has always been there for me and anyone who needed her help. Let me tell her story.

First of all, you might not be familiar with the German “child benefit system” (Kindergeld). It basically means you get paid a small amount of money monthly from the state that is supposed to help you with rasing your children, buying them food, proper clothes etc. Responsible for payment is a particular office called “Child Benefit Office” (Kindergeldkasse). When your child becomes a college student or applys for any sort of further education, the “child benefit money” will still be paid until it turns 25. However, you have to renew the personal data and apply for it again and again whenever your child’s life situation changes, for example when it suddenly takes off the university register, gets a new job or something like that. That is because the Child Benefit Office has to check whether, depending on your child’s age and new life situation, you’re still approved for child benefit money or not.

Sorry if this explanation is a little rough, the German bureaucracy is rather complicated. You can read more about this system here if you want to check out for the correctness of my information: https://www.howtogermany.com/pages/kindergeld.html

So now to the issue that let my mother sleepless and desperate for the past months.
When my sister graduated and became a college student, we let the the Child Benefit office now about it, they checked back and everything was fine. She was still legally getting the payment.
After two semestres she realized that her choice of University wasn’t the best so she took off the university register after two semestres, so my mother went to the Job Centre with her to register her from “college student” to “job seeking”. The officials there told them that my sister would still receive Child Benefit and that they would transfer the new data to the Child Benefit office.
So the time my sister was job seeking, she would receive Child Benefit as literal officials confirmed to us it was absolutely legal.

However, after a few months the Child Benefit office contacted my mother and demanded a repayment of 2139€ and a fine of 1000€. They alleged her to illegally receive Child Benefit over months, altough the Child Benefit my mother received was officially approved. In their calculation they also included the time where my sister was still a college student, which is definitely a life situation where the state is obliged to pay Child Benefit if you apply for it, no matter what.

So the Child Benefit office basically wants my mother to pay back money the state officially and legally approved and was supposed to help her because they alleged her of receiving state money illegally.
As my single mother with 2 more children to feed she never had and also will never have this amount of money to pay anyone all at once.

She contacted a good lawyer which costed her 1000€ more so far and the lawsuit is still going. She would not even be able to pay a lawyer if I as her daughter didn’t take over the costs. I quit university temporarily and took on a part-time job, just for that. Because we didn’t know where to get the money elsewhere.

The lawyer filed an objection to the allegation and reassured us multiple times that legally speaking, my mother did nothing wrong. Nothing she ever did was wrong and illegal in any way.

However, the Child Benefit Office continues to plead guilty and wants her to pay the money and the fine or go to jail. They can also destrain upon her/impound her anytime while the objection is going. So far it looks like my mother will very much go to jail for about half a year to two years if we can’t instantly pay the whole amount of money immediately. I don’t know what to do if my mother goes to jail thinking about my siblings that have to be fed, our flat that also has to be paid somehow. My mother might also lose her job if she goes to jail. Again, she did nothing wrong.

This is why I desperately try to collect an amount of 5000€ including the repayment, the fine and the lawyer costs to save my wrongly accused mothers and also our existence.
I don’t know what to do and say anymore. We can lose everything if this nightmare is going on. Please help my mother, please help us.

Please help Rika

60652432_10218149980450665_8505208278957948928_o.jpg

(spanish below)

This wonderful friend has gone through more sorrow and pain than I can imagine, and these blows have taken their toll over the years. Over the last year she has struggled with blood clots in her foot and lungs and then got infected with erysipelas. She also suffers from fibromyalgia caused by the traumatic events of loosing her parents and four siblings. Rika is well educated and had a good job before illness overcame her and today she is unfit for work which has been very burdensome. The debts of her medical treatment and medication are piling up and she is unable to buy necessary service to improve her life.

She is under hospital supervision once a week and the doctors struggle to find the right blood-thinning medication while she also suffers from serious side-effects due to the medication. Her doctor now wants her to try a new drug which is very expensive and it’s not so easy to finance the cost needed for these. All of this has severely reduced her quality of life.

Me and everyone who loves this wonderful women would be eternally grateful if you could give a helping hand as she struggles with these hardships. All contributions count, no matter the amount you can offer.

With hope and gratitude, thank you. paypal.me/rikeyg

Una vida mejor para Rika

Esta maravillosa amiga ha sufrido más tristeza y dolor de lo que puedo imaginar, son golpes duros que le han pasado factura a lo largo de los años. Durante el año pasado tuvo problemas con coágulos de sangre en el pie y los pulmones, y después sufrió una infección de erisipela. También padece fibromialgia, provocada por los eventos traumáticos de perder a sus padres y a sus cuatro hermanos. Rika ha tenido una buena educación, y tenía un buen trabajo antes de que la enfermedad la venciera. A día de hoy no puede trabajar, lo cual ha sido un gran peso para ella. Las deudas de su tratamiento médico y medicamentos se acumulan, y no puede costearse el servicio necesario para mejorar su vida.

Está bajo supervisión del hospital una vez por semana; los médicos luchan por encontrar el medicamento anticoagulante adecuado, mientras que ella también sufre efectos secundarios graves debido a la medicación. Ahora, su médico quiere que pruebe un nuevo medicamento muy caro, pero no es tan fácil financiar el coste necesario. Todo esto ha reducido severamente su calidad de vida.

Yo y todos los que amamos a esta maravillosa mujer te estaríamos eternamente agradecidos si pudieras ayudarnos mientras lucha con estas dificultades. Todas las contribuciones cuentan, sin importar la cantidad que puedas ofrecer.

Con esperanza y gratitud, gracias. paypal.me/rikeyg

£ 3.000 can change my life

           Hi

         My name is Mara and I am 21 years old. Ever since I hit puberty I started to have a problem with excessive underarm sweating.

         In school I was bullied because even in cold weather I would sweat like crazy. This made me insecure and I developed serious anxiety problems. I am afraid to raise my hands, I am afraid to do anything. I avoid social events. It is hard for me to make friends just because I suffer from this condition.

         I always sweat through everything I wear. It is embarrassing. I only wear dark colors and I have to change my T- shirt at least twice a day everyday. I sweat no matter how much antiperspirant I apply.

I had tried everything to solve it and nothing worked. I don’t fell comfortable at all and I always have to worry about my underarm stains and odour.

I discovered MiraDry, a permanent treatment to eliminate armpit sweat and odour. I did a lot of research and I believe this is what I need but the treatments are pretty expensive.

Two MiraDry treatments are about £ 3.000 and aren’t covered by insurance. I just don’t have the money. I don’t want to live with embarrassing wet marks under my arms for the rest my life. I just want to be normal.

It feels strange to ask for help like this but I really need some. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Last Wishes Angelina (50)

2 weeks ago, my mom got diagnosed with cervical cancer, this happened pretty unexpectedly since we only went to the doctor for pneumonia, since she was coughing pretty often.
This hit pretty hard since they diagnosed it was terminal. The only option left is chemotherapy to prolong her life, but it’s uncurable for now.
This is a pretty tough story, especially for me, but even harder for my mom herself. Especially since her past. I want to start this to get some funds available to give her an as much as pleasantly possible time left.

I’ll tell you something more about her past.

After both my parents opened a bar everything went wrong, after 6 months my father died and she had to take care of the bar herself.
Since this was a bit too much, she sold the bar. Since we didn’t have any insurance my mom got into financial problems. After a few years, she met someone new, and he moved in.
Those times when we was around everything felt pretty great again, but after about 10 years he got diagnosed with stomach cancer. He went through chemo and stuff went bad as time proceeded.
After about 3 years he lost his fight with cancer and he died. Meanwhile, my grandpa got sick and his leg had to be amputated since it had a virus. But when the amputation had to happen he died.
After this shitty period of time, my mom went under administration since we had financial problems due to problems from the past (F.E. the bar)
Everything got better with the help provided, till the debt repayment started. Every piece of income we had, went towards the debt collected over time and we didn’t have much to live with since the payments were pretty big.
I tried my best to help with getting everything financial on track again at home, but since I’m 21 since this year and the dutch system only provides for children until 21, everything got harder to sustain once again.
They told us I had to take care of our problems, and so I tried to earn as much as possible so we could pay our bills, and if we were lucky we could do something fun to soften the situation.
The thing she liked the most to do is drumming in one of her bands (TR Country Band and The Black Wings Band).
Around this time our care also broke down. I had to do lots of research to explain to my mom the best way to move forward and get a new car, so we could keep up doing everything she was doing at that moment.
Since my mom is also the caretaker of my grandma, the car was required since she couldn’t live with us.
Besides everything I wrote down, there probably are also other things I didn’t think of, forgot or pushed away since I’m trying to focus to make the best of the current situation.

The only thing I hope to achieve right now is to make the best of the time that my mom has left, without having to think too much about her current situation.
I sincerely hope that some of you will help us out that she’ll be able to take care of her “Last wishes” because I can’t handle this alone anymore and I want her to have splendid last moments.

Hope!? Are You there!?

Hello, Hope!? Are You there!?
I am a young man from a place where
English is a foreign language.
I hope You understand my message,
As it may not be well written
And this form might not fit in.
But I intend it to stand out a little.

I am searching for You, Hope.
You are all that I have left.
Please throw me the helping rope
To pull me up and free me from heft
So I can be back on my feet
Up and running with a strong heartbeat.
I am asking for a boost – just a little.

My story in general is somewhat similar
To others. I am now in need of financial help.
I did grow up in a family – warm and beautiful –
But when I think back I was all by myself.
Starting from kindergarten age I was alone,
Most often the last one to be taken home.
I have only few photos from time back then.

The teenage years I still remember mostly
But nearly no photos to help keep them in memory.
This Friday im getting a year older than a quarter of century.
I have never before looked at my birthday
With such big pain and misery
Due to recent things I have done by my own stupidity.
Lost my wisdom – I am asking myself how and when?

I did good at school, had top grades.
Even started to have closer friends.
Yet by now all of that has faded away.
Over time I have lost all my friends –
No, they haven’t passed away
It is our friendship that has passed away.
Now I have no one to turn to.

I am begging for financial help.
I get low and raise my hand for help.
I am ashamed and afraid to look up.
I keep my eyes on the ground, hand still up.
I would rather not talk numbers as they are way over my head
I will never forget this – it is engraved deep in my head.
Hope! – I cannot do this without You!

Whoever reads this message, remember this:
You are my spring, my fountain of hope.
You can revive my long forgotten feeling of bliss.
Will I ever get to thank You enough – nope.
So I hope the feeling and knowing You have helped me out
Will bring You joy and warmth without any doubt.
Any donation will help me out a lot.
But if I find You being way too generous
I will share Your generosity here with others.

HELP FOR HEALTH ISSUES – ”Replace Envy And Anger With Understanding And Empathy” .

Hi there to anyone who might be reading this;

I’ve never done anything like this before but here I am taking a chance and reaching out.

So basically im a girl in my 20’s that has been experiencing a number of sudden health issues. Everything from skin issues all over my body, from head to toe. To stomach, knee, back, throath and eye problems. Also due to all of this my mental state has decreased significantly in the most negative way possible.  I’ve been to the doc for a checkup and since ive never actually taken any general blood work before, the doc had to take some and he was completely shocked by my results and had never seen anything like it. He said I have the most extreme defiencies in almost everything.
In order for me to even start looking for the cause of everything thats going wrong, they have to start with one thing and work their way up because I have so many symptoms.
I was also informed this is going to be a closely monitored and long process and that, as you may guess, equals having the financial side of things on the up and up. Which I dont have cause where I live its extremely extremely expensive for even just a normal check up from time to time so people rarely even go, only if its urgent enough.

Im trying to just keep up with the symptoms and do what I can myself to prevent pain etc cause the issues are only getting worse day by day by me not going to get treatment since im not able to afford it.

I feel weird cause it probably looks like im just complaining but in order for me to bring some kind of sense into this situation I have to write it out I guess. I don’t know.. At this point, this is just me trying to explain what im going through and I pray that if anyone reads this and want to help with whatever it may be, please feel free to reach out. If its in the form of financial help to get treatment and answers or just words or advice; my heart greatly appreciate anything as long as it comes from a good place. Also to anyone reading this, please invest in your health first. Thats the biggest lesson in all of this. Have a great day.

Postoperative financial assistance

Hello!

My name is Alexander, I am 27 years old.

Two years ago, my father died. Doctors made a terrible diagnosis – cancer of the tongue and lower jaw. At the first stage of treatment, the doctors advised radiotherapy, but the doctors missed the location of the tumor. Precious time was hopelessly lost. My father was getting worse every day and we accepted the doctors’ offer to promptly remove the tongue and lower jaw. For the sake of his treatment, we had to sell the only apartment and get into debt. Cancer progressed very quickly, after surgery to remove the lower jaw and tongue metastases appeared in the lymph nodes of the neck. After the operation, my father lived for six months.

After the death of my father, I remained the only working member of the family. My mother, grandmother and debts for the treatment of my father at $ 45,000 remained on my provision.

I have a bachelor’s degree in biochemical technology. He began his career in the regional department of Coca-Cola as a quality control chemist. Two years later, he moved to work as a technology developer in a large pharmaceutical company. My work is related to the development of new drugs. During the work, I have developed two new drugs: lozenges with an antibiotic.

Due to constant contact with especially hazardous substances, I started to have serious health problems. Gradually, the lungs, heart and gastrointestinal tract began to fail. Since March 2019, I have been constantly undergoing examinations and cannot fully work. November 6, 2019 I had a cholecystectomy. My employer refuses to endure my health difficulties and forced me to quit. My operation was difficult, the bile ducts were blocked. Doctors say that I can never eat like the rest of the people. Until the end of my life I will have to eat only mashed food so as not to completely unload the pancreas and liver.

The treatment is delayed; my body is destroyed by exposure to hazardous substances. I am in severe depression, but I can’t stop my suffering because I can’t abandon my mother and grandmother. My grandmother who ate her husband and all of her children will not survive the loss of a grandson.

There is a chance that eventually I will be able to return to my usual way of life and work, but this requires time for rehabilitation and continued treatment.

Need help affording my current rent and bills for 4 months

Hey, I turn to here because honestly I ran out of options and solutions for this problem and I don’t really know where to turn to.

I’m from and work in Lisbon, Portugal, where rents have been going up and up in the past years. As a reference when I had to move out of my parents home and first started looking for a place to live (age 18) the usual price you would find for a modest flat for one person would be between 400 and 500€ which considering the average wage in Portugal is around 700€ it’s still a lot. Right now (age 26) it’s impossible to find a place for less than 800 900€ and yes te average wage is still pretty much the same.

As it stands I can’t afford my current place plus all the bills being my rent 850€ + 200€ in bills. Even without including basic stuff like food to eat it’s already so much money for my income which is around 900€. It’s really hard to find anything else in Lisbon that is more affordable and can’t really move out because that would imply giving up on the job I am atm. Don’t really have anyone with the possibilities to help me financially atm so I turn here in the hope someone will be able to.

The reason I mention 4 months is because there is hope. After being motivated from someone close to me I asked for a raise at my work and they promised they would give me a 30% raise in 4 months. With that I could probably finally afford my rent and bills even if it’s not super comfortable I will be able to manage but these 4 months until then it’s honestly suffocating. Right now I have barely any money and I have a rent that I should have payed a few days ago with the value of 850€. Plus with no money left I can’t even afford the transportation to go to work so what i’ve been doing to save on that regard is to walk to work and back everyday which amounts to 16km walk everyday.

I won’t ask for any amount in particular tho i specified more or less my situation in terms of amounts. Any help is really really precious at this time and I would be so thankful for anyone that can put themselves forward to help out.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this if you want to ask something in particular feel free to contact me via email and sorry for kinda the long text, there is a lot more detail to the situation but don’t want to write a whole book here.

I just keep failing

(Sorry for bad grammar, English is not my national language)

Hi, I’m 22 years old guy who just can’t get his life together. Simple and not so important as other stories that I’ve read here, but I must try my luck.

I was a very successful kid at high school and everyone had high hopes of me. I was dreaming about starting a medical career. But after high school the reality kicked in. I live with my grandparents and they were supporting me my whole life. Until they ran out of their life savings. They never told me anything, but I noticed how empty the fridge is and that they no longer buy the food and wine they enjoyed so much. I worked a part time job and they started asking if I can help them financially. I was giving them every month something like “rent”. However, it wasn’t enough anymore. Then granny told me that they are struggling to pay bills, because the pension they have is just not enough. So I started giving them more. But to give more I had to work more so I left the first college I attended. I took a job at local bank in hope that this is the place where I’m going to make enough money for all of us. But the minimal wage + really low commission and the bitter taste of lying to people quite didn’t make it. I left, found myself another part time job and tried to start a business. Failed miserably, lost all my money and got scammed by my partner. Meanwhile I got accepted to another college, not medical, but agronomical so it was kind of close to what I studied at highschool (and it was remote so I could work while studying). I kept working in that part time job for lower than minimum wage, studied and didn’t know what to do next. All my money was used for bills. I was overworked, burned out and depressed (including suicidal thoughts). Therapy was too expensive so Bible and writing poems made it for me. After all that I found great job in the army, higher than average salary, prestige and all that. I applied for “bootcamp” (again while I was in bootcamp I was paid minimum wage). And hurt my knee… So they fired me. After 4 years of trying to somehow help my family I’m at the exact spot from where I started, but injured now.

I don’t ask you to send me money for bills. I will find a way to pay them as always. But please, because I can’t go out now and do sports, find better job and it feels like prison here I thought that you could help me get money for new computer (the old one is not capable of even opening a document reader…). Around 500$ should be enough for a pc that will last 5-7 years. I can’t afford one and it will help me a lot with my remote studies, work from home and to overall kill some time while I sit here all day and stare into blank wall… Once I get healthy I’ll join army again if there is no better job. But it’s one year horizont…

Thank you…

A second Chance

Hello World my Name is Florian. I am from Germany so please excuse any spelling errors in my text.

I am very ashamed to ask for Money like this, but the Kindness of strangers is at the moment the only Hope I have left.

It all started 2011. Back then I took over the small painting Company from my Father. It was only him and me. In the beginning, we earned enough to support my Parents and myself.

2014 my Father suffered a stroke. Luckily it was a mild one. So he survived without much consequence.

Only a Year later he was diagnosed with Colon cancer. Fortunately, it didn’t spread. So after the removal of most of his colon he made a somewhat full recovery. But because of his Health issues, he could not work a full Workday anymore, so he began to fall behind on the payments for his House.

It was during that Time that I met the Love of my Life which I married last Year. We managed to support them and us with our combined effort. I even managed to get a big public client. So things started to look up.

Because my Wife can’t have Children the natural way, we decided to get an Egg donation in an IVF Clinic. It was very expensive, but because I had this big public client, we decided to take a Loan from our Bank.

Unfortunately, this client suddenly cancelled all his contracts with us because they themselves have money Problems. Because of that I fell behind on every financial obligation which stacked up to about 3000€.

So now it is the end of the Year. My parents will most likely lose their house if they can not pay the Bank 2500€ soon. The first round of the Egg donation didn’t work out so we have to try a second time in December which will cost about 2000€.

I have some small clients left, but it is not enough to support 2 families with it at for now.

At the moment I am selling literally everything I own to finance the next attempt. And I am constantly looking for a second Job that is in no conflict with my main job.

In the meantime, our savings are almost gone. So the only Hope I have left to get out of the money sinkhole that is my life at the moment and to keep on going and fighting is the Kindness of strangers.

If you decide to help me, your help will be used to pay off the debts of my parents in their house, to pay the company’s debts, but most importantly, it will be used to help my Wife and myself start our own Family. Every little bit helps. Even if you can’t spend any Money but had a similar situation and can share something helpful because if it.

A little help please

Hello, my name is Miguel , i am from Portugal.

I have been working as an IT professional for the last 7 years and currently happy with what i do.

I earn 800 euros/month after taxes.

I am married , my wife works as a receptionist , she is working in the same place for the last 3 years. She earns 700 euros/month after taxes.

We recently had two little girls ( twins ) :)

I made the decision to buy a new apartment , we were in a one bedroom house and now with the little girls we need more space, so we changed to a 3 bedroom apartment.

The cost of it was 180.000 euros (20.000 below the average for the size where we live)

We have two cars to go to work, one Opel and one Fiat, when the kids were born i made also the decision to take all my savings from when i was single and pay what me and my wife had left on the cars debt (8250 euros)

I made this decision because i hate debt , i rather have little to no money at all then having debt.

The new 3 bedroom apartment costs us monthly:

370 euros – bank debt

30 euros – insurance

70 euros – condominium

—————–=470 euros total

 

The costs on it with water , energy and television monthly:

45 euros – Energy

50 euros – Water

45 euros – Internet / Cable / Phone

———————–=140 euros total

 

The costs with the girls in school (nursery):

150 euros each = 300 euros total

 

The costs with transportation home-nursery-work-nursery-home:

120 euros in total ( aprox 60 euros each car )

 

This leads to a monthly fixed expense of : 880 euros

 

Wage1 + Wage2 = 1500

Fixed Expenses = 880

 

Left for :

-Food(2 adults , 2 children)

-Girls expenses(dodots; cleaning towels ; clothing ; Pediatritian ; Vacines)

-Any kind of emergency

 

620 euros

This leads to we can spend at max 20 euros each day, if nothing out of ordinary happens, we usually finish the month with between 20 to 40 euros left.

 

Now this im not going to complain, of course its a bit hard to know that i am on the line, and hope nothing happens that makes us have to spend any kind of extra with anything, but its life and i can deal with it.

 

What i am asking is , if anyone would like to help us have some kind of weekend out, or a vacation. Or buy some Christmas presents. We would gladly appreciate the help. Or even to have one month where we can have some meals at a restaurant or go see a movie.

 

Not asking for a lot of money, any little help is already amazing.

 

Thank you for your time.

Im a beggar now


I’m a 23 year old guy from Sweden


I had bad social anxiety for as long as i can remember. I am pretty lonely but i handle it pretty well and i stay focused on my hobby which is music production.


Had some sort of sleeping disorder since my teens, which basically means i am awake for 2 days straight and i fall asleep from exhaustion. That’s my normal routine.


The past 1.5-2 years i’ve had lots of stomach problems and i’ve been to the emergency room many times. Couldn’t work. I had to move in with my dad again. He puts food on the table and i have a bed to sleep in. I am too ashamed to ask him for more. He’s a wonderful person and he would help me if i asked, but i just don’t have the guts to ask him for money when i know his economy isn’t good. I just can’t..


 


Anyway.. I have pretty much isolated myself for all of this time and my mental health has declined by alot. As a result of all of this, i feel unable to work. I just instantly get really fatigued when i try.


I haven’t gotten a haircut in a long time. I haven’t been able to buy clothes in years either, and my self esteem is really horrible as a result. If i’m not able to take care of myself, i cant feel confident in myself. Basically, i’m a homeless guy occupying a room in my dads house(though my stomach hasnt ever had to be empty.. So i guess it’s not that bad)… But i haven’t owned a penny in a long time.


I really miss the small things in life. Like sometimes being able to buy a soda when the craving comes. Being able to go out with buddies and take a drink. Have some spontaneous fun. I’m in my 20s. Your teenage years and 20s should be your golden years. I really don’t want to miss out on my youth..


 


I guess this is why i’m asking for donations. When i’m as comfortable as possible in myself, and i have those basic life needs fulfilled. Haircut. Clothes. Etc.. At that point i believe i will progress much more on improving my mental health. If i forced myself to get a job right now and work, it would take way longer. I believe i need to work on my mental health first.


 


I didn’t want to beg, but for some reason the site name “beggingmoney” made it much easier, haha.

Mental Health


If someone who reads this is able to help me out, I’d be more than grateful. 


My situation results in a multitude of outside factors, which I will dismiss for the most part in the following, as they are only catalysts, not the underlying problem. 


As a young adult without parental guidance during childhood, I have grown to be very diligent, hard working and cannot remember missing a day of work while employed, unless severely ill. As a former “ward of the state” I am used to getting by on my own, however this came at the cost of me being forced to dismiss many of my mental health issues that have accompanied me throughout the years, focusing on earning money, a degree and not getting kicked out of the apartment(s) I lived in. In the years leading up to my first post highschool degree, I suffered severe abuse, resulting in an array of mental breakdowns, self harm and destabilisation of my pre-existing mental condition. However, after proving my fortitude despite the aforementioned and getting a part time job, planning for university in the future and consulting a new, very supportive psychiatrist, I crashed. I feel more empty, delusional and distressed than I have ever before and have successfully ruined my latest relationship. We still live together, however now of course the monetary situation has to be figured out. I work the maximum hours I am allowed to during the week and cannot keep the apartment by myself, which is the same for him. Our upcoming bills exceed what we have been making for the past few months, and with the added stress of the current situation, we won’t be able to both afford moving out into cheaper flats (as they are also very hard to come by in our home city) within reasonable time, while I can remain focused on my psychiatrist treatment, without falling into even more debt. 


While my ultimate goal is to rebuild this relationship, my primary concern is my mental health, as my psychiatrist deems me severely unstable currently and I am on medical leave until I am able to leave the house by myself without suicidal intentions. Of course, clinics are expensive, and before I can even think about going, I have to get the finances back on track, as we have been dropping more and more into debt with each bill payed over the past months. 


As of right now, the debt which my ex-partner and I have accumulated surpasses our disposable credit line, and in order for us to get back on track, we require 2.000€. Even if we worked full time, we wouldn’t be able to spare that amount of money, and we have no one in our families to turn to. 


Any donation will be greatly appreciated and can be transferred directly via paypal.

I Need Glasses


1aooonnn.jpg

Hi,

I´m Katie and I live in Sweden. Out of all places, I know. I´m in my 50ies, have ulcerative colitis and had to relocate due to having witnessed a crime. So, I´m unemployed and living on the margin of all margins. In the middle of beautiful nowhere.

Sweden, you say, isn´t that a rich place? Oh yes, Swedish economy is booming but Swedes do not partake in the success. Industry and large corporations are doing fine despite a new recession lurking on the horizon and approaching fast-ish according to the news on telly.

Swedes however, follow the rest of the world in that salaries are not up where they should be and unemployment is far bigger than the fancy numbers you hear about. Plus, of course, in some areas they´re blowing up bombs all the time. Literally.


My errand on this site is that I need new glasses. Prescription glasses. According to the dictionary I have double astigmatism (I know what it´s called in Swedish but not in English) so for me to buy glasses will cost me the equivalent of 950 US dollars. I understand glasses are costly everywhere unless you want to look like something that crept up from a 1960ies sitcom. And if I ever could get another job I should try to avoid looking overly bad. Double astigmatism means not only the lenses of your eyes are a bit askew but also the very inside of the eyes. It requires a bit of extra effort from the optician. Or they just charge more cause they can. Whatever comes first.


I have applied over and over to various funds and the like over here in Sweden, in order to raise money for new glasses. Problem is that it´s the rich guys that control these charity funds (I just found out) and you can get 2000 Swedish cronas (about and very roughly US 200 dollars) and that wont pay for any new glasses. So the rich really think that if you´re poor it´s you´re own fault. Well, its not always that way now is it.


As I´m new to where I live and forbidden to use Facebook or Twitter or anything else lest I´d be found by the baddies again, I will try my luck on this site.

I hope someone out there takes pity on me. New glasses will improve my life quite a lot since bot seing properly gives you headaches and makes you very, very tired.

To all of you Living Angels out there, many thanks in advance and rest assured that when I get new glasses and a job I will return here and help someone.


Yours truly,


Katie

Hello everyone and thanks in advance,


My name is Janet. I am 33 years old and I lost my job due to changing of my immigration status to full time. I have been in Ireland since 8 years. I submitted my application to change my stamp, 1 year and 2 month ago and is still pending. My employer still call me on 9th of October for update on the stamp but I still waiting, no response yet. I tried contacting a solicitor but I was told to pay consultation fees of €100 which I don’t have also.


All the savings I had I use it to pay for my rent and bills I thought that the application will not take this long, I was wrong. I am so depressed that I am about to lose my mind and my birthday is 29th of October.


I am owning also friends and they refuse to talk to me. I am about to be kick out of my room which I don’t know where to stay or how I will pay on 31st of October. Please I will appreciate it if you help me with €1,500 for both rent, bills and the consultation fees of €100.


I am doing domestic jobs at the moment which is less hours and I also started online surveys and other micro tasks on my phone to earn extra cash which is coming around. I am currently volunteering with a non-profit organization that has a mission or cause close to my heart.


I recently decided to pursue a long time goal of mine in forming my own t-shirt business, immediately online job I am doing start to yield. I will appreciate all the help I can get. I want to break free of this financial difficulties, if only I could get some help I be grateful. I thank you in advance for your kindness. May God bless and reward you. Amen

Money isn’t everything to me, but everything needs money


Hi! Thank you for for taking the time out of your day to read my story! My name is Shona.


In the past couple of years I’ve got myself into a bit of a pickle. My dog has got quite a lot of health issues, which have now, after 3 years been put down to allergies. Bearing mind, this is after spending about £6,000 on medications, confusing vets and an operation. So, to say the least… for being 19 years old I am in quite a lot of debt indeed.


Monthly, I currently pay just over £70 for his hypoallergenic food (to prevent the allergic reactions to food) as well as £150 towards his medications (which is like a doggy antihistamine & drops to help his reoccurring ear infection). As you can imagine, over £200 a month does set me back. But that is on a good month. If he needs to go to the vet for something else, it usually costs at least  £100 on top of what I already have to pay.

And for me, it’s a no brainier… I will pay because I love him and he’s our family dog. I know it’s my responsibility, it’s just a bit much sometimes.


I still live with my parents, we took the dog in originally because he was thrown away by his old owners… as he is a huge breed and no one could find him a home, he would’ve been put down. He is a lovely dog, so timid and loving… I literally couldn’t ask for a better dog. He doesn’t deserve to be in the pain that he is. So I pay everything I can to prevent it.


My mum and dad help me out when they can but overall they can’t afford it. My mum has a disability so she relies on my dad financially, so it makes sense that they can’t help out.

I don’t get paid that much from work, so the money I am meant to save for my car insurance, I have to spend on my dog. So it means that I struggle every month.

I am so great at budgeting but after all of my outgoings like rent/lodge, food, car, debt and my dog. I am actually left with very little.


This brings me on to the subject of my car, somehow I have been managing the payments, but I really have no idea how. I need my car as my mum relies on me heavily to go places because of her disability. My dad is usually in work, so if I don’t drive her around, she simply wouldn’t be able to leave the house. I feel like I’m stuck in the middle a lot as I need to be the one who is left without to make my dog and my mum able and happy. I would never give up my dog, but I also want to be a little less stressed.


So I would be so so happy if anyone could help me out and give a little bit of a helping hand. I would seriously appreciate anyone who is happy to help me with money because I really need it. It will benefit me in ways that I can’t even imagine right now. Thank you so much if you read all of this! :)

I don’t know how to get through this month


My name is Kathi and I’m a 20 year old retail worker from Germany.


I live with my boyfriend who just started a new apprenticeship last month after taking a mental health break from work (he also worked in retail but is even less in the condition to keep on working there than me).


I work part-time but with no limitations on how many hours a week for a bit over minimum wage as I’m not a trained retail worker.In the last few months I worked a lot so I would have enough money for  everything he couldn’t pay yet I overlooked my own mental state.I enjoyed it there at first but the environment at my workplace changed negatively with a new boss and I got more and more depressed as time went on.my history with depression and mental illness started as a teenager and I’m in therapy but I’m still so very bad at acknowledging how burned out I really felt. I tried to do it as long as possible but the stress from work, life and some family related issues got to me and it came to the point where I had to tell my manager that I cannot work as much anymore and she accepted.I did it because it was the best for me at this time, but now I have financial problems so I don’t know what to do anymore.


This month neither I nor my boyfriend have enough money to pay for rent, food and other bills from months before where the money was tight as well. Our families have their own financial difficulties and this is honestly my last hope to get at least enough money for food for the rest of the month so we can pay rent with the rest of our income. I hate that I wasn’t strong enough to keep on working and now I’m here begging online for money, yet I see no other way as of now. My budget now is 50 euros for the next 20 days. My boyfriends pay comes in the middle of october and is enough to cover rent if we’re lucky as his credit account is already in the negative with insurance payments and so on.

I would be very grateful for every euro we get if there is somebody willing to help us anyway..

Even 5 euros can help us get over at least another two days. Please if theres anybody out there who has some spare change you would help me and my boyfriend so much!

To overcome depression and help my parents


Hi!


This is a letter for all the people who know how to read. I want to do what I feel and never be forced to suffer because this is life. I was always told to do the logical thing and to focus less on what I feel and the fact that I listened to this advice made me very unhappy. We are not robots programmed to do things, we feel things and we materialize that is why we call ourselves humans.


I’m here because I ran out of options. I have a special situation and someone healthier than me told me that it is ok to ask for help in life when you feel alone. I am sure many people are familiar with failure, disappointment and low self-esteem.


About me. From the age of 16 I live in rent and I had to deal with very small amounts of money, but I have endured believing that as an adult I will have enough money to be able to own a house, but I am still in rent.


My parents live in a small village and they are old and need repairs in the house and they cannot afford, the floor is broken and soon winter comes and they will not have any heat, also I want to hire someone to take care of them because they live far from the city I live in.


Not long ago, I broke up with my boyfriend and I went into depression that made me lose my part-time job and quit college. I haven’t had anyone around me all this time and I can’t explain to my parents because I don’t want to upset them. I never asked for money, I don’t know how to be helped by strangers. If there are people who have better financial situation than mine and want to help please any donation matters to me and my parents.


Recently I started to make paintings and be interested in art, my plan is to go further and manage to make as many paintings as possible, but the materials cost and I cant make it alone. I want to do many things and because I dont have money, I got to isolate myself. Help me help my parents and help me at the same time. At this moment I feel that I help myself a little because I am honest and through this message I made peace with myself because I finally accepted that I need help.


I need money for the repairs of my parents house, money to invest in my talent and money to open an account to buy a house. Any donation counts.  paypal.me/itsalexcostea

Asking for some help to get back on my feet


Hello all,


I need a little help from some kind strangers to get back up on my feet.


I am 26 years old and I live in Colorado. I no longer have any living family members that I know of. I lost my job about two months ago. I had some savings I was able to stay afloat with and a few friends were able to offer some assistance to me. I am currently attending a community college to get a degree


which would help me get a higher paying job.


I lost my parents 4 years ago in a car accident involving a semi. The inheritance went to paying off their debt and partially covered funeral costs. My grandfather was then able to finish paying off the funeral. I lost him a year later.


I am by myself in this world just trying to get to a more stable place.


I am still trying to find a new part time job that can carry me through my degree. My funds are running low and won’t last me much longer.


I have enough money left to cover my bills this month but after that I won’t have much left to provide for myself with.


Ive never been the type of person to ask for financial help but I don’t have any more options for the time being.


Everyone needs help at some point in life. I give what I can when I can in hopes of good karma.


Im originally from New Mexico where I grew up and my parents and I moved to Colorado because my dad found a job here. It has been very hard since I lost them.


I live by myself in an apartment. I am not in any kind of relationship. I have no pets. It is just me and I hate that I can not provide for myself currently. If I lose my apartment, I can no longer attend school without an address.


My mom was an alcoholic but I am proud to say to don’t drink.


I graduated high school in the top 15 percent of my class. At the time, my family could not afford to send me to college even with the scholarship I had received. Once I could, I began school again last year. I have two semesters left on my associates degree.


I am working towards becoming a veterinarian for horses and livestock. I love being around animals and I would love to be able to help them.


I’m not asking for a certain amount. Anything can help. Thank you for your time in reading this. I hope life brings you happiness!

Brother-in-law killed and sister in coma after car accident.


Please read my story. It will take you a few minutes.

Last July, my sister and husband and child (10 months) had a serious car accident in Italy. My brother-in-law was killed and my sister was badly wounded and in a coma. My sister threw herself over her baby (my nephew) during the accident as a mama lion protecting her child. That is why my nephew survived and was unharmed.

My sister (she is Dutch) lived with her husband (he was Italian) and a child in London.

My sister and I are alone and have no parents anymore.

I had to stop working immediately to go to Italy for my sister and nephew.

The parents and sister of my brother-in-law (they are Italian) were of course there too.

Because I had to stay by my sister’s side and arrange everything, I was unable to take care of my nephew.

No problem, because my brother-in-law’s parents could do that for so long.

After 15 days my sister (still in a coma) was transported to London because of the insurance.

In the meantime, my brother-in-law’s parents and sister have filed a request for full custody. They were devastated by grief and did not want to give my nephew back to my sister, because they thought my sister would not survive. I could not have it but I went to fight for my nephew.

But my sister is very strong and came out of a coma after 7 weeks. Her body was completely broken and her head was very confused by the coma.

She was the first to ask about her child, but she did not remember his name. I told her that he was still in Italy and that he would be with her soon.

In the meantime I had to hire 2 lawyers (1 in Italy and 1 in London) to get my nephew back to his mother in London.

After 2 months I had to go to Italy for the trial myself. I lost it because didn’t have a good lawyer.

I had to hire a new, even more expensive lawyer.

In the meantime a friend of my sister was sitting with her at her bedside. Every day she asked about my nephew.

In the appeal I won and after, in total 4 months after the terrible accident, I was able to bring my nephew back to my sister. He was now 1 year old and had to cry a lot when he saw my sister. Because she wanted full custody of my nephew and did not want to give it back to my sister, my sister broke that contact. My nephew no longer has a father but also no grandparents anymore, his only connection with his father. This is horribly painful and sad.

This lawsuit cost me a total of 60,000 euros and I also just had to pay my bill and hotel in London.

After 6 months I managed to get my sister back to the Netherlands. She is rehabilitating and in the meantime I take care of my nephew and as a result I cannot work because of which I have almost no income. Step by step my sister is doing better and better, but she still has a long way to go.

Because of this terrible accident I lost my dear brother-in-law, I almost lost my sister and I got into big debts myself.

I am happy with every euro and I hope you can alleviate my financial pain. Thank you for reading.

Please give me a second chance


Thanks everyone, who have decided to read my story here.


My name is Tomas, and now I am 26 years old. I come from the Czech Republic (situated in the middle of Europe) and I have lived here my whole life so far in a town of 45k inhabitants. Yes, you are right, I am not the native speaker, but I am going to try me best to let you know about the reason I am begging you for your help.


When I was a young boy I started to play ice hockey in my hometown. To be honest, I was quite good at it – being the captain of the team, playing with the older, however was not fortunate with well-educated coaches who could properly work with my talent and also me myself did not have the information and experience nowadays players have by great internet sharing from the best professionals all over the world. So I did not do the all the things in the best possible way and I did not reach some of the best teams in my country.


Luckily, I was a good student at the same time. It means the whole time I was getting the best grades and while was still playing ice hockey I started studying on the most prestigious high school in the region.


Then I made an uneasy decision – I gave up my ice hockey career and put all my effort in gaining the best education. I successfully got myself on the University of Medicine, but I was used to divide my time into studying and performing physical activities as well. Nevertheless, this is something you just cannot spoil yourself with when studying medicine for being a doctor in my country. I did not find the balance and ended up after only one year there with one missing exam.


Suddenly, I have found myself in the situation where I had the best potential for being a successful sportsman or a well-educated person but did not make a use of any of them and also lost my girlfriend Lucie and left my family disappointed.


Still enough time for getting back on my legs again though. I started studying journalism on the University of Philosophy and got a job as a camera man shooting the live stream coverage of sport events in my country and Austria and Germany as well. This was mainly for the betting providers and soon I realized I can find some patterns in these games and make some extra money for myself with that.


Soon, it started not being some extra money, but the amount some people in my country work for many months. I became richer than 90 % of the people of my age in the Czech Republic and lost motivation for finishing my studies. Still I did keep my personality and was caring and giving a help to people in need as well as respecting all kinds of work.


I thought in the end I had managed to find some luck for me in the life and wanted to establish a family and build a decent business, while the combination of these two will give me a happy life with enough time and funds.


I found a girl Eva, searching where I can invest my money and everything looked promising. However, it did not last more than a year. Eva appeared to be emotionally unstable, keeping me under continual pressure and start drinking hard soon. Since I had a really nice time with her for some 10 months, I did not want to leave her and was blaming myself too.


When it started to escalate I thought I could find at least some happiness in the thing I was good at, I started with betting again. Please, remember, you cannot do it when you have problems, when you are under some kind of pressure or you just want to make you relax – but better, do not do it at all. You must be totally concentrated and with the clear background too. I was not and step by step I lost the major part of what I have earned previously and then also money I have borrowed.


Of course my relationship was then ruined completely, and also my relationship with my family, which decided to help me with my debts, is hardly damaged.


I know I was absolutely gifted in my life and it is only my fault, I did not get not the best but at least better from that. Unfortunately, I cannot have a second chance right from the beginning, but still I can have it now and I would be endlessly grateful for any help from you.


I do regularly work and keep paying my debt to my family, but this situation cannot allow me to start all over again. I would love to apply again for university, to become a teacher and give my life a meaning again. Now I need $9000 to clear my debts and be able to apply for the next school year.


Please, give me a chance to not waste this life.

Money for School


Hey, I am a full time student, and as anyone pursuing their studies full time, it is very difficult to maintain any sort of financial stability.


I am finding to very difficult to find adequate employment, as with only being able to work reduced hours, I can’t make enough money to support myself whilst studying.


My family has always been poor, for numerous reasons, one of which is my mother is a single mother of six and she can’t maintain all of us adequately, so I try my best not to burden her further. Especially because my brother is special needs, and he requires a lot of care, which my mother is always busy providing.


Any money that I make, I give to my mother to help pay bills and rent, and that had caused me to be very much unprepared for the next school year of college.


I am here as a last resort in the hopes that someone would be kind enough to consider my situation and my need to continue schooling so that I may be able to one day pursue a better life for myself and my family.


I am very ambitious in the field that I am studying for (Early Childhood Development), and one day hope to be successful in this career choice.


I am faced with difficulties with issues such as school lunch, where last year I had gone numerous days without food because there just wasn’t enough to go around in my house. Other days I struggled to meet assignment deadlines because I had been confined to the working hours of the public library, whereby they closed around late afternoon, and I don’t have any internet or computer access of my own.


I would really wish that next year I don’t face there trials again, because it was very very hard and I remember crying more often than not because I would be overwhelmed by the confines of my situation which left me so frustrated.


It is not my intention to write out a sob story, I don’t mean to implore your sympathies but I also do.


If you could help this girl do better at school, I would be so greatful, and it would be such a relief, you would have no idea.


Thank you…


The image I have attached are the grades I was able to achieve last year, I didn’t know what else to post, but this image no less is an indicator on how hard I am choosing to pursue my studies.

Meanwhile, i had and I still have constant chest pain, shortness of breath, brain fogg, weakness. sometimes may symptoms so bad for days i that i feel i cant even function. But that isn’t want to be the story of my sickness. I fought and i successfully passed my matura examinations with good grades it was hard but i did it. I gained admission to medical student education at the university. But the problems escalated. we are a poor family we can’t pay a college I need to travel 4 hours a day from my home to the university and this is very hard for me with my condition. I started to afraid i couldn’t continue my studies because I’m so tired after so much traveling and with this i cant spend enough time studying because of the situation. I need your help, I really do. even if I could collect nat the whole just a big part of the rent of the college it would mean the world for me. The price of the college per mount is 100 USD.

Help for a fresh start in life


My life story

So it begins with me, a young man, who failed on life. My parents educated me, but i was drawn to the dark side of the teenage life. Got into alcohol and gambling, and in like no time i got addicted without even realizing that.

At the age of 23 i started making debts all around, since i was not working. I know i was a parasite of this society (please, if you can don’t judge). As i said, i got a lot of debts, so i started working, trying to earn some money to pay back what i owe… But i failed again.. I got a credit from a bank (15.000 $) to pay all my debts, and this is the moment where i made a big mistake. The monthly pay was more than half of my salary, which i didn’t payed attention when i signed the papers.. Two months later, the only person that kept me on the right path left me, cause i was a mess..

That was a devastating moment. I lost myself again in alcohol and cigarettes, and was about to lose my job too (but managed to keep that).

I realized then i need to make a change, to work on myself and get rid of these toxic and destructive habits, and i did..

I got rid of all the alcohol in the house, and stopped buying cigarettes, and i’m proud to say that now I’m 1 year sober.. It feels great… Oh, and started to talk with my ex-girlfriend again. She keeps telling me that she loved me, and she still does, but can’t be with a guy that’s a mess. And want me to prove that i can do the right thing and be supportive in the family.. And i can understand her… She want a man, not the mess i was..

I’m fighting to get a fresh start in life, trying everyday and working hard for that.. But the problem I’m having is that the bank is keeping me in place. Taking more than half of my salary, is kinda hard to live from one month to another.And i took some time to think this over, i know is not ok to ask people for money, but i hope that if there are people that can feel me, or understand what is to make a BIG mistake in life (and the power needed to realize and start making a change), will know how much little support can do.

I’m only trying to raise the money to cover the credit from the bank. But no matter if you will help me even a little, i did this mostly to ease the pain, tell my story, and maybe if there are peoples reading this that got trough what i’m going, I just wanna tell you, keep up the good work, heads up, and keep fighting. Don’t give up on life.

‘Cause even when is hard, life is beautiful. Thank you for taking the time to read, God bless you all, and if you can’t help, please say one prayer for me. Hope i will be able to make my parents proud, and make myself a family i can be proud of.

me and my daughter


Halo good people! I live alone with my daughter since her birth. We are alone for full 17 years. My daughter’s father didn’t want her. I don’t have parents so we don’t have any kind of  support in life. We are renting apartment for 10 years (we changed 8 apartments in that time) so I do two jobs to provide survival to me and my daughter. We live in one small town in Serbia.


We need finance help to change our life. We want to move from Serbia because we are alone our whole life.  We want to move to Austria because of better future. We need money specifically for rent to apartment or room and survival to first salary. Total amount of that is about 2000-2500 euros because of deposit for apartment or room.


My daughter was student of generation in elementary school (she was 15 years old then). She was going on contests from  math, biology and chemistry and she was winning awards on city and province levels.She played volleyball and she was perspective player but she quit because she broke both of her arms and unfortunately she missed her change to change life in that way. I want to secure her good life and going to college.


We are struggling our whole life. I have heart disease and I am taking beta blocker for five years. That are consequences of hard life. I have been handball player and I have never drink and smoked so my disease consequence of stress. Unfortunately here in Serbia and beside two jobs we can’t buy house and secure nothing more than survival.


I can not tell that we don’t have what to eat or that we are sleeping on the street but we have nothing more than that. We never had car, we went on vacation once but we have been trying to make our life better but we never can change a lot. I wanted to go first alone in Austria to secure accommodation for us but I didn’t have anyone to look after my daughter if I would go because out family contains us and our seven years old cat.


We don’t want to give up and we still believe there are people who want to help.If you want to help us please donate on http://paypal.me/mama566283


Thanks to all people with good heart and those who read story of our life!

Young woman in need of help


Hi everyone!


I’m a 29 year old woman suffering from severe social anxiety, agoraphobia and depression. My mental health making it almost impossible to keep a job longer than a couple months I’ve been unemployed and, as a result, struggling with money for the past few months now. I have no family to help me and I’ve isolated myself so much lately that I don’t think I have anyone I can call a friend anymore. That’s why I’m here, begging strangers from the internet for money even if it feels like the hardest thing to do. Pride and all…


Honnestly, this is a last desperate attempt at saving myself. The good news is I may have found a job starting in september. The bad news is I’m short on cash (I need 300€ to be exact) and I will get evicted if I don’t find money in the next couple days. I’m terrified right now and desperate. I really, really do not want to be homeless. In fact, I’ve been thinking about suicide more and more lately. There is a part of me who wants to live though, which is why I’m writting this, there’s also a part of me, getting louder and louder, who is tired of fighting against her own brain. I’m tired of hearing people say things like ‘it gets better’ because in my experience it never does. I’m just tired.


But I also still have a little hope. Hope that somehow things WILL get better. Hope that I will get the job I got interviewed for. Hope that I can go back to therapy. Hope that I will get better. Hope that someday I will be a cat owner again. This is litterally all I want in life: a home, a cat, and a better mental health. I don’t think I’m asking for much?


So if you’re reading this and can, please help me. Help me so I can keep a roof over my head until I work again and can afford therapy again. Any donation will be appreciated. And if you do decide to help me, I thank you with all my heart. I will be forever grateful!


And if you’re reading this and can relate, please don’t do what I did. Don’t isolate yourself. Talk to someone!


Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to read my story.

Help Kristina to get medical and rehabilitation treatment after an accident


Hello everyone!


I’m trying to raise money for my good friend from the university. Her name is Kristina, she is 24 years old. Not so long ago the terrible accident has happened to her. She is injured from falling from the high building and currently in a medical institute In Moscow, Russia fighting for her life. She received almost mortal injuries, her back is completely broken and she will be paralysed for the rest of her life if she even survives all the surgeries she now getting. ​Luckily Kristina woke up from comatose state but she can’t talk or move. Her parents are with her and had to move from their hometown to be with her for the treatment period leaving everything they had behind. I have her mother on the phone everyday and from what i got from her Kristina’s heart is stopping almost daily because the psychological and physical pressure she is now experiencing is hardly compatible with living. She will stay in the hospital for approximately 2 years and then will need a long rehabilitation to come to terms with her state.

I’ve been friends with Kristina for 6 years and I can surely say that she is wonderful, light and kind person. She had so many dreams about her future and always wanted only good things for people she loves. She doesn’t deserve everything that happened to her and ruined her life at such a young age. Kristina is the only child of her parents and what they are going through right now scary to even imagine.


Due to high medical expenses and the long term treatment that requires a lot I’ve decided to start this campaign and ask other kind people from all around the world to help Kristina and her parents. Me and other friends of hers are trying to help as we can but it’s not enough and it’s breaking my heart that we can’t do enough to help her to survive. No one wants to put more pressure on Kristina’s parents with asking other people for something so I’m willing to take the full responsibility with organizing this campaign.


Even a small help will be much appreciated!

Thank you so much for attention and taking time to read or participate in this!

I dream about having children


To start off, I’d like to thank everyone who clicked on my request and is reading it. My husband and I are both hardworking people. We live in France and earn a regular salary (my husband is French and I’m Ukrainian). We live in a small one bedroom apartment and even rent out our couch through airbnb to save on rent. We can be considered as quite successful as we have all of our basic necessities. Wanting a bigger apartment can be considered a luxury.


I’m 36 y.o. and have no children yet. As you know, my biological clock is ticking and the longer I wait the higher the chance I will need a help of IV (which costs a lot of money) to get pregnant. Furthermore, this was confirmed by the doctor in the US, who told me 6 years ago to plan having kinds ‘right away’ as my egg reserve is diminished or very limited. Life, however, often has other plans for us. It didn’t happen for me. And now that I’m married, I have yet another hurdle. As our apartment is very small and it’s a rental, to start a family we need to buy our own apartment, be it the same one bedroom just slightly bigger to have a baby. Real estate is quite expensive in the area we live in and we qualify for only a small credit with a bank. We are ready to take a loan and pay it during 30 years if needed, but banks here don’t give the same home purchasing loans as in the US. The highest amount we can get is 100,000 EUR while we need 300,000 to be able to buy a one bedroom and not a studio. Even if we go further away to the countryside, prices remain quite high and it will cost us 250,000.


I feel awkward asking for help on the internet, but I have not much other choice as to pray and hope for help. It’s a vicious cycle I find myself in, as I desperately want kids. We try our best to save and even diminish our rent through airbnb (we have people constantly sleeping in the couch in our living room) and yet I might very soon find myself in a position to have IV as my only option while I certainly can’t afford it. While we are not poor, we still find ourselves blocked in these brackets with not much hope.


If you know what it feels like to want to start and family, to want to have kids and not being able to yet, you will understand what I feel. While there’s stil hope for me, I need help. And as much as it pains me to post my request here (as I’m sure there are so many more serious cases), I will be forever thankful for any donation, any help you can spare. And I will keep you in my prayers. Thank you again for reading my request and thank you for your consideration.

House for me and granny


Hello, I think that all our life is very bad story. When I was born, my familly was happy. But it was 40 years ago. When I was almost five, my mother was killed by my father. He just wanted to did it, no other reason. I lied near by mom and he was not interested. That night I woke up in a police car. That’s my only memory for this terrbile day.


All my familly broke up. My aunt (sister of my mom) wanted me, my granmother (mother of my mom) wanted me as well. Judge send me to my aunt and the hell began. She’s just getting crazy. More than two years of a derision, beating, turture and no out going, instead the school. No granny! Her own second daughter prohibited visited me. No contact for more than two years.


After that appalling time the social care sent me to granny. Since that was I the most beloved girl all over the world. Trully and deeply beloved, but alone. No one other cares about us. We do not believe to anyone else.


Now, after 33 years we are still together, still alone. I have no kids, no husband. I needed her, now she need me. I have never left our state, never seen a see, but I don’t care about that. We have a bigger problem. That’s why I wrote this.


We do not have a proper home. Only a very little flat with noisy neighbors, which make us crazy. She is almost 89 years old and she suffers, we suffer, every single day. With my salary I cannot afford a house, not in this life. And my granny deserves to live much better, I was hoping that I will be able to care of her, like she was, but I will not. Not without a help. We have now a little bit more than 30 percent of prize of house near to town. And we have to be near, because of doctors and a hospital. She really deserves that care.


She was born in a house in a small village, but her brother gave her some little change and took her off the house with three kids and old mom. No husband, she devorced. Men in our familly have almost never existed. Her dad died when she was eleven. Her sister died in hers seven, scalded all her body. And when her kids were finally aduld, devil came back into her life and killed her beautiful sweet girl, my mom. Yes, the pain is still alive and all around us.


Now I am asking You, begging You, for help with our dream to live in our own house. It is very expensive in here. We have only 70 000 dollars (prize of a flat) and for a smaller house we need almost 250 000. With salary I have, 720 dollars for month I really cannot afford a house. I almost crying becouse It’s very hard to believe that in the world are people whitch could help and maybe they read this.


Thank You, if You read this to the end and I am very sorry for my English.

Help My Mum


Hey!


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


I am turning to you because of my mum (without her knowing). She has this lifelong dream to live in a little house in the middle of the woods. And she has been working hard on it for over 20 years.


She is now 58. She lives alone in a small island in a small country called Estonia. Me and my sister and cousin visit her as often as we can, but we have moved away from the island years ago and started our own lives. We help her as much as we can, but none of has any extra money laying around to finish up her dream now.


She has had a long, often difficult life. She has raised 2 kids alone and for a few years took in 2 other kids as well. We had to get by with very little money, but she always made sure we had food on the table and clothes to wear. She sewed our clothes herself sometimes. Even though we didn’t have a lot, we always had her love. She has taught me that women can do anything – from raising kids to building a house. She is my role model.


Her dream is half way done. There exists “in the middle of woods” and there is “a little house”, but the house is not finished and with the pace it’s going, I’m afraid she won’t be able to finish the house in time, so she could enjoy it herself as well.


She saves up whatever money she has left over every month to buy building materials for the house once or twice a year, but it isn’t a lot. In summertime me and my sister and cousin go and help her with building the house, but it’s all done in very small bits and pieces because we just can´t afford to do it faster.


The house she is building used to be a sauna. She has herself, with help from family built 2 extra rooms to the house over 20 years. She has alone changed the roof of the little house. We have together in the last years put up new boards/planks around the house outside (not sure what the English term for it is – outside walls basically). Even my, at that time 7-year-old, daughter was there to help with hitting the nails to the wall.


But despite all our efforts, I am not sure it is enough to make my mums dream happen any time soon.


I have added a few pictures from the different stages of building and also from the outside.


I know this isn´t an emeregncy situation, but it is MY dream, that by the time my mum turns 60, then with my efforts and, if you are kind enough, with your help, I can give her HER dream.


Thank you again, for taking the time to read my story and if you have some extra money, I want you to know it will go to fulfill a lifelong dream of a hardworking woman, who herself would never ask for help.

Struggling Student with Unaffordable Vet Bill


Hello!


I am a 21 year old girl named Hanne. I live alone with my dog, Bella. I live in Norway, which is in the northern part of Europe. It is pretty cold here. I study to become a nurse, which has always been a dream of mine. I love both people and animals, and I have always wanted to include that in my future job. I can’t wait to finish my studies, so that I can get out there and help people.


Lately I’ve been struggling. Since I’m a student I have very little money, but I’ve always somehow managed to make an ok living for both me and my dog. This was up until my dog broke her leg. She had surgery, but a few days later it got infected. Bella is my everything, so I asked them to do everything and anything they could for her. And they did. She is fine now, but only in a few months they will have to do another surgery, to make sure her hips and legs are fully healed into the right position. They are worrying she might have hip dysplasia.


So now I’m sitting here with a bill I have absolutely no chance to pay. And I’m awaiting another bill in a few months. If I can’t get enough money, I will either have to sell her, in order to pay the bills, or quit my full time study, and get a full time job instead. Both my dog and my study is my life, and something I never wanna give up. It is really hard for me to ask for money, but in this situation I see no other solution. I want you to know that any donation is highly appreciated, no matter how much it is. Anything will get me closer to being able to pay the vet bill.


Bella is a white Labrador Retriever. She is 2 years old, and has a lot of energy. We love going to the park, hiking and just being outdoors together. She is the best thing that’s ever happened to me, because of all the happiness the brings to the world. I don’t know what I would do without her. I really want her to get well soon, so that we can continue doing what we love.


 


Thank you so much for reading this, and thank you in advance for your help. It means the world for me.

Hanne and Bella

Moving forward


It is not possible to write my life from the past without writing a book. 


I had a good life, until about a bit more than 5 years ago. All of this has started after I stopped getting paid at my job (after years still in court). Bills started pulling up, lost everything, had to close my own company, moved cities and continued to live off small paychecks.. there were a lot of times when I couldn’t buy pads for menstruation, let alone something else. Then a small gig shows up, can pay 2 weeks accommodation and food. And then same circle again. I can’t count how many times I’ve been homeless, sleeping on friends couches, friends of friends couches. If it wasn’t for my friends I would have never made it to here. 


I work freelance or part-time and I would like to get a steady job. Basically a dream, after being my own boss for years while working for another company too. I was a hard worker. 


I have sold all my clothes and belongings years ago. Have some medical issues but nothing too serious (diabetes, PCOS) but my medical bills are what keep me from not being able to save money. 


My life consist of looking for jobs, spending what I got on food and going to doctors. Build up stress makes me go back to emergencies all the time after years of not being able to provide food or shelter. It goes up for a week or two and again same circle. 


I’ve been through a lot and I spend my days helping my friends get back up on their feet but I can’t seem to help myself. At this point I don’t know if I am strong for pushing on or just delusional. 


I don’t believe money comes just like this without working but I’ve hit the limit. 


All I want is a chance to pay my bills, get a new place that I can call my home (in October is 3 years of not having my own place). It’s also hard to keep one job when you need to move a lot. 


Healthy food is top 3 on my list of wishes as it’s just not possible to pay for any food for years. 


Everyone says this is starting life from a 0. But it’s not when you can’t get to 0. 


I am just trying to brake the circle, sleep in my own place and start a new life. 


I do believe life is teaching me some important (yet very expensive lessons) and that’s the only reason I am still pushing. I don’t have a steady job, income, food or a house but I am grateful that I learned some lessons, become wiser maybe, have more compassion for people and I have definitely stopped judging people (which I wasn’t aware of that I was doing) cause you can’t ever know what someone is going through. And I become the master or DIY, from cooking to making my own clothes to pretending online to my worried parents that I am ok. And I know I will be with a bit of luck. 


P.S. The only thing that I didn’t lose in this whole mess is my humor, in fact I became a walking irony of life. 


Thank you for reading this far. 


If you leave a donation, I would like to have a way to contact back once I am up on my feet again.

Chiari malformation


Hello, everybody. My name is Ana and I am 38 years old. I have a rare and degenerative disease, called chiari malformation and I also have syringomyelia, which is an associated pathology. Forgive me if my English is bad, I live in Spain and found this place by chance, while I was looking for a way to earn money at home, since I am unable to work. I had a normal life, until one day, suddenly, the symptoms began to manifest suddenly. My right side of the body fell asleep from head to toe, I can move it, but it is corked and without sensibility, I can’t use my right hand, cut a single fillet, my vision is double and I can’t walk without help, I can’t bathe alone, I can’t do food or a lot of things for which I was always independent. I got the social security to give me an electric wheelchair, because not being able to leave home alone was plunging me into grief and that gave me back some life. I live with my partner, she’s a woman too, just like me. But she works 12 hours a day, she can hardly ever be with me and when she is at home, she has to take care of the tasks that I can’t do, cleaning, food, my bathroom? It hurts me not to be able to help her and that she has so much work. Her salary, after all, is 950 euros and my pension is 730, we do not even reach 1800 euros between 2. I don’t want to go into too much detail, but the situation is difficult because I need a house that is adapted for me and a bigger car. Don’t think that I ask someone to give me a house or a car, although that would be great, but I don’t dream so high and I don’t aspire to have my whole life solved. I just need (and that’s a lot) to pay off the debts that accumulated when I had to leave my job. I have tried to get ahead and that my partner did not also worry about the economy of our house, I have helped my family who was going through a bad economic time, my sister in particular with her baby and, I have been accumulating loans that now prevent us from accessing the purchase of a home because we have too many expenses. In total we owe 33mil euros and we would have to buy a car for me, to be able to adapt it, get my wheelchair, but at least if we could get those 33000 euros, we could breathe and access the purchase of a home suitable for my health and healthier conditions because, we live for rent in a small apartment full of moisture and quite old, but renting a flat is very expensive and this is the only thing we could find years ago and, our low wages and our loans, do not allow us to leave here and have our house … I had to ask myself things before my time, things like what will become of me, who will take care of me, what will I do if one day I am left alone without great means of subsistence, without a house to live in? I’m only 38 years old and I’m already afraid of tomorrow. I would like so many things… To earn enough money so that my partner could stay at home without working and not have to be so tired, that she could spend time with me of quality and could take me to live outside of these walls, because I have a lot of desire to live and that she lives? That my little sister would not have difficulties to make ends meet and be able to help her whenever she needed it and thus alleviate her depression and helplessness and, of course, have my house at last..


Madrid is very expensive to live with such low salaries and my mistake was to ask for loans to go subsisting and now, with those outstanding amounts (no defaults, we pay every month) when we go to a real estate and explain the situation, do not call us back, so I have already given up and come to you because it is the only thing I can do now. I don’t know if it will help, but I hope it will, and life will give me a little of what I have given, because I think I deserve it. As I told you, 33000 euros would allow us to have access to a home, because we would no longer have those debts that interfere, the rest, is to fight with life as we all do. I hope someone can help me make my life a little easier. I would like to leave you my email in case anyone has any questions or needs to see my medical reports or loan instalments or whatever is necessary. I understand that there is everything in this life, but I really need it and I can prove it if required by the person or people who decide to help me, besides, I would love to be able to say thank you for the help.

Thousand thanks to all in advance. A hug

IMG-20190815-WA0001.jpg


I’m only 29 years od. For last 11 years I have been trying to HEAL our planet TECHNOLOGICALLY. Not for myself, but for we all, that are living on THIS PLANET EARTH!


I have been participating  in more than 160 projects related to alternative energetics. I have many unique/patentable ideas/prototypes that, if made reality would lower Global energy consumption by 9 percent NOW – BY 2020! These inventions  are all related to increased efficiency of generating energy, making manufacturing of any kind of products fully sustainable! Ofcourse, not any – making sure that only fully sustainable manufacturing is being performed!


That doesnt sound much? Think Globally – if one person makes impact that’s 9% worth – we would only need 11 people to HEAL THE ENTIRE WORLD TECHNOLOGICALLY.


I have been studying maths, physics, electronics, mechanics, mechatronics, manufacturing for last 11 years and have the necessary background to make my ideas (that would benefit all) to become a reality. I need YOUR support!


Why ? Becouse I’m stuck in an 8 to 6 job, that I can’t get out of – bills! I’m workin for a company that doesn’t appreciate my ideas – I’m just an employee for them! I have tried all the  business investor platforms – incubators, angels, etc., but as I have found – all they are interested in is making money – no matter out of what!  No matter, if the business is polluting our Earth or not. That’s a shame!


I have been investing all my earned money for last 10 years in prototyping of my inventions, while  working all the time for someone that doesn’t have the same VALUES as I have! Not even close! I don’t want to earn millions of whatever currency, I want this World to be a better place, so that EVERYONE, including me, could live HEALTHY, ‘CONSUME’ just what we REALLY NEED and feel/be COMPLETE! Many think that that’s just that easy, but sorry, if you don’t want to live in a cave like circumstances, you’ll have to INVEST – TIME, EFFORT, MONEY in our modern world assets, including technologies!


How high would you value an option to live more meaningfully – Live more Healthy – regarding everything – regarding how we THINK and how we ACT, including TECHNOLOGIES!


If YOU could support me, I could begin my journey of making this WORLD a better place! Becouse, I don’t see/feel that anybody’s who is coming from outside – the rich, governments, etc., is going to fulfill my passion – passion to make this World a better place – technologically – not to make ourselves to work for technologies, but to make technologies work for humankind!


With my technological research/inventions, I could lower GLOBAL energy consumption by 9 percent NEXT YEAR!


I need Your support to make my ideas benefit all!


Please, please, donate!

Left abusive home, relationship and workplace – need help to start over


Dear reader,


Thank you for taking time to read my story.


My name is Laura. I am a 20-something-year-old, with no family, no support and simply lost right now.


I need the sum of 5000 dollars, just to live in the next 2 months.


I need almost 30000 – to get out of debt.


I will be focusing on the smaller amount, of course, just to get me by.


I never had the courage to ask for money, as I never felt like I deserved it. However, a few days ago, an Uber driver offered me a free ride (it was pouring rain) and I accepted. They asked me about my life and encouraged me to get my story out, maybe start a blog – so, I’m trying. But I need help.


I was an abused and molested child. My cousins raped me when I was little. However, I still went to their house, because they were wealthy, and we had food over there. I accepted the sexual abuse, for food. My home… that’s a different story – my immediate family abused us (me and my little bro), beaten us to the pulp, destroyed us spiritually. My father is a savage alcoholic. He gambles and the only thing he taught me was: “You are only here to wipe my shit stains and bring me coffee. You are a whore. And you better learn how to steal.” – since I was 8, this was the speech that I was given almost everyday.


I finally abandoned that house, at 19 years old, when my father tried to throw me out the window for being inside the house at 8 pm. It was the first time I had fought back physically, and it was horrible. I managed to run past him, in my underwear in the middle of the city. My mum threw out the balcony some items for me. And I left, and I found these MLM people who promised me the world and promised me that if I worked hard enough, I will make it. Because I deserved it. I could get my mum and my brother and my granny out of that horrible place. Even though, they have all abused me. So, I invested – in a lie, a stupid horrible lie – and got myself in deals with loan sharks, sold and pawned almost everything I had. Just to built something out of myself. However, I was spending 500-600 dollars a month on rent, utilities, the office space, and I also had to take a second job in the office building as a cleaning lady. My debt was increasing. But that’s not all…


Unfortunately, stuff hit the fan… I found myself in an abusive relationship, and one of my co-workers was sexually assaulting me. No one did anything about it. They all said that it was clear that I enjoyed it – the first time it happened, most people in the office saw it. And I was crying, with my skirt torn and started puking. They still said it was on me. I couldn’t handle it anymore. And my then abusive boyfriend kicked me out.


I found myself on the streets and slept for a month, during cold fall, in parks, in the subway – in a new town 500 km from where I lived 20 something years of my life, washing myself in bathrooms and I finally became a Sales assistant, in a mall.


However, I found myself in the new capital with another bunch of abusive people.


While trying to find the cheapest place to rent, I found people who as my room-mates, stole money, my wallet, my clothing and left me hanging. The landlord couldn’t accept it and kicked me out.


And again and again. I finally made it, I had made enough money to share a flat, but with more money, and as awful as that sounds, I started getting out of that poor mentality and found some decent people.


I got myself into therapy (for 3 years and a half now), I found myself better and better jobs, until I managed to get a small internship at an IT company.


My latest ex-boyfriend is my now boss. He is tormenting me, giving me all the other tasks of my peers, while they go out and eat and celebrate and do nothing really. He has started to stalk me, has broken into my house when I was not there, has started following my friends. Calls me in the middle of the night, calls my apartment. According to our therapist, he is either a psychopath or a sociopath. I don’t know and I do not care. The police can’t do anything about it. My work place won’t do anything about it – cause I am too “sensitive”.


I lost my work place, as it’s no longer a healthy environment, as my boss is simply destroying all my projects and giving me the worst tasks, that aren’t even in my responsibilities. “You think you’re gonna find anything better? Stop whoring around and do your job. If you don’t like it, quit.” He has scammed me out of 2000 dollars.. Now, some of my friends have decided that this … is too weird for them, so they stopped calling, replying or anything. Because they were afraid. And they’re right. I mean, I”m afraid…


And now, I have to pay 500$ today, in order to keep my apartment. I have immediate debt at the bank – 500$ next month – cause I couldn’t pay it last month.


I postponed as much as I could, I offer my English skills to make some extra money, I sold again – almost everything that I have built. I am tired.


I am tired of working so hard for one decent good night sleep – no nightmares, no night sweats, no terrors (of dad raping mom, of me being raped, of the beatings etc…). I am tired of working so hard to afford food and decent clothes. I am tired of having to postponing my fucking foot fungus or other immediate medical needs, simply because I cannot afford it.


I am tired of fighting. I am so tired. I have been raped, abused, traumatised, left, cheated on, lied to and people have stole from me. And


I need help.


I can offer more details to anyone who is interested. Honestly, I hope that at some point, I will turn this into a successful blog – that will also serve as a new beginning for other people in my situation. I truly honestly hope that maybe someday, I will help someone exactly like me.


Any help is so much appreciate, you have no idea.


Also, I offer any kind of English support for smaller projects that you might need help with. For free, ofc.


May you have a great day! And thank you for reading this.

Please read….


I was a Homemaker, A great wife and a great Mother. I did all the old fashioned tasks like Baking, Sewing, Knitting, Cooking, Cleaning, School Runs etc. 9 years ago I left my husband, after almost 30 years of marriage, but only when I was certain my only daughter was safely away in college and not in need of me anymore. At that time I was heavily depressed which skewed my view on my marriage and caused me to make the wrong decision of leaving him and the family home. As a result my husband divorced me and both he and my daughter ostracised me and still to this day won’t communicate with me or help me in any way.


Shortly after my divorce, our family home was sold and I received half of the sale price, which was not very much as the country try was in deep recession and the housing market had dropped considerably. I still had enough to buy a very small apartment but unfortunately while I was looking for the right place, I met, what I thought at the time, a charming business man who offered me the opportunity of investing in various projects which would bring in more than I needed to buy a decent apartment, renew my medical insurance (which I had to forfeit with my divorce) and of course, run a car. For this I left my Country, temporarily but I never got to return. Needless to say, no business deals ever happened and this man cheated me out of every cent I had and when all my capitol was used up, abandoned me. Over the years I discovered that this man is a psychopath, others noticed it but unfortunately I didn’t, until it was too late.


So, here I am, left on my own in a foreign, hostile country with nothing. I don’t qualify for any kind of welfare and cannot visit the local hospital without paying a nominal fee up front. I have just turned 60 this year and with that am accumulating various ailments, thankfully most of them small but I still have to deal with anything on my own as I don’t have funds for doctors fees or any medication. Also 3 years ago I lost most of the sight in one of my eyes but luckily enough the eye, from an aesthetic point of view, still looks perfect. When given the opportunity I can still sew and do crafts using a desktop magnifying glass, so it hasn’t hindered my creativity. I used to be able to look after myself very well, always dressed well, had great teeth and hair but now everything has changed to the point that even some of my back teeth are breaking and causing a lot of pain but visiting a dentist isn’t possible and I don’t have money to buy pain killers.


I have a very small token income from my Ex which is not enough to pay rent and buy food. I no longer have a car or medical insurance. I have nothing, I own nothing. I have no assets. I don’t have any friends here as I don’t have the money to socialise anymore. Sometimes I don’t have money for food or it’s a choice between food or non-food items like toothpaste etc. Under my circumstances I cannot afford to leave the room I ‘exist’ in.


My Mother died 3 years ago with Alzheimer’s so fortunately she never knew what was happening all the time I was going through my divorce etc. I didn’t tell her as it wouldn’t have made any difference, possibly it would have upset her momentarily so there was no point. I think if she could see me now, she would turn in her grave and would not believe the conditions I’m living under, it would be too hard for her to conceive.


I am a real person, I’m not a bad person and I will still go out of my way to help anyone I see in trouble. I believe I can still be of use in this world. In the words of the Dalai Lama ‘if you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito’. but still my sense of despair overwhelms me each and every day. I sleep very badly but when I wake the gloom & doom of my existence weighs too much and my thoughts always turn to suicide. How will I do it? I don’t have the money for pills or alcohol, I throw up at the sight of blood and I know I would botch a hanging. Also, although I have an estranged daughter, she is my next of kin and would have to deal with my mess. I can’t do that to her. I love her so much and think about her all the time. As it is, I’m worried that when I die, she is going to have to take care of the funeral and she has enough financial worries of her own to think about.


Like I said, I am a real person, I’m sure there are lots of people out there looking for assistance all the time, some real and some not but if anyone wants to check me out, I will go to any lengths, of their choice, to prove that I am here and I am in this desperate situation. I hope somebody, somewhere reads this narrative and on a humanitarian basis helps me out. Any suggestions would be appreciated but obviously any funds would be greatly appreciated. I don’t mean to sound childish but ‘I just want to go home’ and start living again instead of barely existing like a caged animal in this lonely, hostile country. I have lost everything but I still have my dignity. Even if you are just reading this, I thank you.

BAD SITUATION


Good to all, it is not a good taste for me to be writing this, but the truth is that I am desperate to solve my situation as soon as possible … looking for how I could make money I found this website and I wanted to try my luck, although I understand that It should not be easy, at least I’m not used to being helped. But first I will tell you a bit about my situation, right now I am working, but my income is not enough to pay my debt, my mother has had to go abroad to take care of my brother and is not there to help me. And my father is an elderly person and he is retired. So I see myself with a job that he does not give me to pay for my expenses and a debt that I can never finish paying.


I live in Seville, Spain. I have 3 older dogs and I live alone, I like to go to the movies, to go for a walk, the sunsets, watch online series …

In summary this is a bit my life and my situation.

I hope someone understands me and can help me.


Thank you!

Help with rent


I am hard working but I did end up in a very bad situation.


I am supporting 5 kids and married since 7 years. I have the youngest child together with my husband. A few days ago my husband left me for another women and my life did fall down like a card house. I did discover that the rent was not paid in 2 months. Even if the contract is in my name he did have control about the money and manage the family economy. Instead of paying the bills he did send the money to her in Libya. I did take a mortgage in April on 150.000 for us to buy a home in his country but that money is also gone. If i will not pay the Bill on 25000 and another 12500 buy the end of this month i will end up on the street with my kids. I do also need help to pay the mortgage on 150.000 since it is impossible for me to raise that kind of money on my one. I go to work every day, I leave my youngest in kindergarden and pick her up every day. My husband did also work but he did stat home much. Now I know that he did stay in home to talk with her online. My husband did go out walking much with himself and I did trust him when he told me that he is out walking because he is stress about his family in Libya. It is war in Libya and I know it makes him worried about his mum since she still live there. I cannot Even explain how bad I feel and stupid when I found out he did plan to marry one in Libya behind me. One time when he did go out walk he forgot his phone in home. The phone was ringing. I did not recognize the number but did see it was Libyan. So I did answer and she was in the other end. She was swearing me. She told me that she will destroy my life. She told me that my husband only was with me because i help him. Even her older brother did speak with me and confirm that my husband was about to marry his sister. My husband did come home and I did fight with him about this. He was swearing me even in front of our child. She start to cry. Now she have nightmares.  I am in a very stress situation, my life is a total nightmare. My husband did not only go behind my back he did destroy my whole life.

THE CINDERELLA FAMILY – Broken by the work of an unheard inventor


Who I am and what I’m looking for


I am a 20 year old girl, taking my family’s situation in my own hands and begging for your financial support in order to help me, my younger sister and my parents, because our close family members are not able to, our friends and relatives don’t want to (because they are no longer patient), and for banks and public institutions, we don’t have enough guarantees.


Our story in one sentence


My father, a creative tinkerer and private technological inventor, didn’t manage to realize his remarkable projects, which brought our family on the edge of survival.


Our story in short


In order to realize his biggest dream of succeeding as a technological inventor and providing for his family, my father fell into danger and debt – and had to sustain the illusion of hope through secrecy and a web of lies, under which our family was brought to ruin, while he eventually collapsed when he recognized he was not going to make it.


This is when he left us as a homeless man, informing us, in a long email, of his impending death. Me, my mother and my sister saved him, but are left scarred with a tough past as well as being practically moneyless and desperate to get our life back together.


What we need: enough money


    

  • To barely survive as a family in our current location: food, water, electricity, hygiene, transport, school etc.
    • 



Plus eventually


    

  • To survive very modestly: repair (floor, doors and windows that do not fully close, oven, showerhead, tap, TV antenna…) and repurchase (basic car, laptop, washing machine, fridge, some clothing items…) broken items etc.
    • 



Approximately 50.000€ or 56.000$ would be of great help


Plus eventually


    

  • To repay most urgent debt (which is approximately 100.000€ or 112.000$)
    • 



Plus eventually


    

  • To repay less urgent debt (which is approximately 100.000€ or 112.000$)
    • 



Plus eventually


    

  • To relaunch the activity of started innovative projects by:

      

    • Perfecting some prototypes of the major and minor inventions, and eventually patenting them
      • 

    • Publishing another great discovery – a solution of the prime number enigma (not as a mathematical demonstration, but as a natural occurrence) which in itself has the potential to bring great success
      • 

    

    • 



A startup of approximately 200.000€ or 224.500$ would be of great help


If we happened to receive more (through donations and our own hard work), this is what we would be doing with it, beyond the expansion of my father’s works:


    

  • Moving to a place with more possibilities, where we can start from scratch
    • 

  • Improving our health and well-being
    • 

  • For my sister: financing university of Marketing (including university fees and expenses, as well as associated costs of living such as transport, apartment, food…)
    • 

  • For me: attending courses and starting a business of my own in order to become a natural therapist (including the means for promotion)
    • 

  • For our parents: future eldercare (as their pension is delayed)
    • 

  • Eventually, making personal dreams come true: personal development, small gifts to my mother for our recognition, sharing our story with and helping other people who are going through similar situations like ours
    • 



We are not up for further debt, as our experiences dictate that the risks outweigh the benefits in our situation.


Prior to telling you our sad story in all detail, this is a short description of who we are, so you get to know us better


My father: 


He is positive and brave, as well as cheerful, loquacious and likeable.


While this story speaks for itself and reveals most of his interests, he is also fascinated by classical music, history and culture, as well as chess, billiard and darts.


Whenever he is at home, he lends a hand to my mom to run the household in every imaginable way, especially through hard physical work, with the exception of taking care of clothing, which he knows close to nothing about. He is our home cook.




My mother:


She is down-to-earth, content, confident, eager to help and hopeful, as well as funny, serene and a cool mom, who has too big of a heart.


Reasonable and a focused and very precise worker, she likes painting, decorating and furnishing, and is often busy selling items online, as well as doing household tasks.


Travelling counts among the things she enjoys most, and her goal is to find peace, tranquility and security, together with her husband.


 


Me:




I am curious, ambitious, motivated, hard-working, determined, as well as polite, friendly, sunny, and a great listener.


I’m interested in human biology and psychology as well as healing, and enjoy reading and writing about the topic. I also love playing the piano, singing and chatting, drawing, dressing up and learning in general.


I am all for long walks in nature.


Patient, good at solving problems and coming up with creative solutions, my goal is to find happiness in aiding other people in a natural way, by teaching them how to heal themselves, and to build a calm and stable life.


 


My sister:


She is dynamic – relaxed, easy-going and fun, but also stubborn and reserved.


This girl is very smart and easily learns anything she sets her mind to.


She is interested in computer science and languages, of which she speaks 6.


As an animal lover and fan of movies and theatre, having a good time with and talking to friends is what makes her feel good.


Marketing and economics are in her blood, which is why her goal is to grow up to be an independent and influential woman, to work in the marketing sector and build a business of her own.


 


We live in the north-Italian mountains – cut off from the city, and speak German and Italian fluently, as well as English.


Take notice that this is a very wealthy quarter, which encompasses high living standards, but on the other hand also high costs of living.


 


The struggle of my family


Despite having always worked diligently hard and non-stop to exhaustion, yet in an allegedly smart, efficient and useful way, life has hit us very hard, as we are victims of never-ending complexly tough situations, which we had no other choice but to suffer through.


Casual bad luck, conducted mostly by senseless wickedness and villainy of mean and evil people, but also our own tenderness and well-meant altruism, have been the culprit.


Inadvertently lost, there have been a few factors we have just been intrinsically incapable and impotent to shelter from.


They endangered us in a way that, albeit reprieving us from permanent damage so far, has opened up the doors for that…


unless a drastic scene change takes place very soon.


In this case we are very motivated to harness our ace in the hole for our regeneration: to make a difference in the world through remarkable contributions and to guide people in situations similar to ours.


A recent, happy family moment: dad, me, mom, sister




You will find us and our business on most social media platforms and on our website, all under construction. We go by the name “The Cinderella Family” and also have our own hashtag #thecinderellafamily.

I want to help the world


Hello, I’m Arturo and I’m an amateur musician.


I think a lot about life and our situation, I’m always asking myself what am I doing here? Why are they doing this to me? Is this a dream? How do I wake up? Sometimes I just wonder if this is a test…


I used to think about committing suicide, and I still do, sometimes. But there’s only one thing that helps me keep going:


The dream of helping people.


I love helping people, I love being kind and I’d love to make the world a little bit better. There’s so much cruelty, so much ego and so much need of power, and that’s killing us literally, it’s destroying our only earth. It won’t dissapear, we will all die before corruption and human power ends, that’s crystal clear, it’s in our genes, but it can be reduced.


People is so blind nowadays, the media makes us think like they want us to think and religion keeps brainwashing people’s minds, countries make us think we are the good guys and our military are heroes for killing “enemies”, we are so cruel with animals, we mutilate animals alive, we cook animals alive, we let them bleed alive and those who weren’t born in a farm with another 10.000 animals and never saw the sunlight or touched grass, will die because they will loose their houses when we deforest the forests and jungles. And all the plastic? all we throw to our oceans and seas? everything we do, EVERYTHING we do, for money, it’s killing us slowly, humans ourselves, animals around, the water we drink, the ground we step on, and that’s just insane.


I just want to spread my word, talk to people, reach the world and show them a way of surviving this dying society and this dying world, I wanna spark the people and I wanna make changes, reduce contamination, I want to reunite our people and stay together against bad things, and slowly reduce them, together, that’s what we need, a leading voice.


I understand people and I know we all have problems and I can feel that and I can transmit that through my music, I can recreate a feeling in a song, I could feel deppressed and transmit that to a song without effort, crying rivers over my keyboard asking myself in a funny way, what the fuck? am I crying…? Yes, I was and people doesn’t know that, they just know what I’m transmitting in that song, you just listen to it and you feel it.


All I’m trying to do is express feelings in my music, reach people, teach people and become a voice to help our people and fight together.


I’m Spanish and English is not my first language so I’m so so so mad that I can’t express myself the same way I do it in Spanish, but still, I hope you all understood what’s my mission and what am I fighting for.


I need money to start buying music stuff; instruments, computers, headphones, microphones, and of course, a place to live in, but that’s not your concern, you won’t donate much, and I get it. I just guarantee that 100% of the money I get, is not going to drugs, leisure or other stuff, it will all be focused on my music production and the gear I can’t afford, like I can’t afford other things… but anyways, if you want to contact me to know more or have a conversation to share thoughts I share my e-mail and paypal.me:


https://paypal.me/arturooliva9


(You can ask me whatever you need to know this is 100% real and I’m not lying)


Thanks a lot, and remember that even if you could donate 0.10$/€ it will work for me, I’m not asking for big amounts of money, I just need help from the people to get little grains of sand and start building.


Thanks a lot.

Help to start over….


Hello people,


I’m Alex 27 years old. I live in a former soviet country Georgia, and believe me in my city if you not try hard to help yourself, the only thing you get is DEPRESSION. Yes, it is hard to live here and I tried hard but fortune didn’t favor me. It’s a long and bitter-sweet story but I’ll try to make it short…


I always loved Computers and spent much time sitting at PC since I was a child, always wanted to become a good programmer but I spent much time having fun and not taking time to learn programming. Finally, 3 years ago when everything was fine, I was getting good at programming and started looking for a job, bad things happened in my life.


I fell in love with a girl who has a little girl, that was the best thing in my life. We wanted to live together but our mothers were against us. We don’t have neither fathers nor siblings. Then I took an offer and started a job that later I realized I hated that job and then I was fool I started gambling thinking that I win enough money to live together with my love but everything went down…


Finally, we broke up, I left my job with my debts and fell in depression that I’m still in. Recently I met her and she’s in trouble too. I want to help her, help myself but it is beyond my possibilities. I can’t even start online fundraising campaign because my country is not supported. I have no one to ask for money, I have only mother and she’s paying credits to not lose our home. I’m just stuck in something I can’t explain, I don’t know what else to do, seems like it’s only me and my computer. I do want to do some things but I can’t. I feel I become mentally ill.


I’m a good person and I ask you good people if you have some extra dollars, send it to me please. I need 10,000$ to start over, pay my credits, get a tuition in IT Academy to become a Web-Developer, get my dream job. And may I get my love back…

In Dire Need of Therapy


Dear people of the world,


I’m a 25yo woman from Slovakia. I’m currently forced to take one more semester at uni because due to an administrative error I wasn’t allowed to take the state exams and finish my studies. I’ve been feeling very down because of it but this issue is just the tip of the iceberg.


From 8 to 14, I was bullied by the kids in my school. They frequently called me names, lied about me to the teachers, hid my stuff, threatened to beat me up after school and so on. Luckily, I only went through actual physical aggression from them once, but my encounters with them sparked social anxiety and lack of confidence. Thanks to much kinder people later in my life, I began to overcome these issues slowly but I’m nowhere near being fully functional.


This is also because of my greatest issue. My mom is an aggressive, manipulative, paranoid person. It runs in this side of the family, her mother was the same and from what I’ve heard, her grandmother also showed this traits. I’m very scared I might become like her too.


I’ve always suffered emotional neglect at home. My dad was always away, working really long hours or working abroad. My mom did try her hardest to provide all the material necessities for me but always found a way to make me feel guilty and not worth it. Even minor missteps have been met with inadequate rage sessions during which she’s been vulgar to me, has denied everything I say, twisted my words, made excuses for herself and downright refused to listen or acknowledge my worth in any way. She always blames others for the struggles in her life, isn’t capable of taking responsibility for her mistakes or apologizing. When my father occasionally tries to defend me, she takes it very personally and insists that a good father would do the opposite – defend her and punish me. Last year, she went so far to actually physically attack me while screaming she would kill me. Dad was there and restrained her from harming me but I swear I was scared for my life.


On top of that, 6 years ago she developed some kind of paranoid disorder. She believes that They are visiting our house, stealing things from her and misplacing them. These They also manipulate with strangers on the streets and in shops to say some specific words and to give my mom strange and knowing looks, all to mess with her and to ruin her life and career. Dad installed alarm system and strengthened the security of our house but that only led to making her convinced that it’s dad and I who do all the nasty things to her.


We are both very hopeless and stuck. Dad is burnt out from overwork and only surviving because of being deep in denial (he refuses to speak about divorce or a change of job). Neither of my parents trusts psychologists. Mom gets offended and enraged at the mention of the word. Dad insists that psychologists are no use in such complicated cases. They won’t help me in this regard.


I’ve tried a lot of self-help techniques like meditation, breathing exercises, journaling, physical exercise etc but one can only get so far without the help of a professional. I need therapy. I feel desperate, depressed and traumatized. I have troubles with anxiety, I lack confidence, I’m a huge people-pleaser and I fear conflict. I internalize all my negative emotions, fearing that if I show them to others, they will stop being my friends. As a result, I developed a psycho-somatic response to stress and pain – my stomach often stops being capable of digesting food. I would never throw up or starve myself willingly, but often I have to starve because my stomach just doesn’t work properly. A lot of the time I am unable to focus properly, I’m tired, unmotivated and weak.


Can you please help me with financing my therapy? A 100 dollars would help me cover approx. three therapy sessions. Of course, I would also be very thankful for much smaller acts of kindness.

Living a calmer life (a family of 3)


Hello and thank you for reading our story.




We are a family of 3. My husband (36), our daughter (2,5) and me (38). We live in quite an expensive place – Prague, Czech Republic. I am on parental leave and my husband is a photographer. First of all I have to say I am very grateful for all we have, especially for our family, health, relationships, opportunities, living environment… And a part of me is really not quite convinced I should be asking for anything. The thing is, our reserves are getting smaller, as my husband had a tougher time in his business lately. He is a very good guy, modest, warm, sympathetic, open to learning new things, delivers 130% of what he is expected and his photos and workshops are great. We have a mortgage to pay (until we are 60yo), our car broke down several times in the last year, and we had to cover the winter months, when there was very little business for my husband, as well as a mandatory repair of a dangerous old balcony. Slowly the reserves shrank to the point, where it would be really threatening to us to have to touch it another time. I feel we are kind of stuck at the moment. Sometimes I complain my husband doesn’t spend much time with our daughter and I feel exhausted. And then I see how exhausted he is feeling with all that pressure that he puts on himself having to provide for all the three of us. Working late, thinking of new ways to bring money. He comes up with a lot ideas of how to widen his portfolio. We are both very sensitive people not wanting to cause any discomfort to each other / anyone. It hurts me seeing my husband so stressed out and I am worried about him as well as getting stressed out too. Although maybe not that good at selling his abilities, my husband has a job he has dreamed of since about the age of 18. I wish I could help him and also help us as a family live a calmer life, spend more time together, enjoy the family moments that will never come back. Maybe even enjoy a little holiday and get some rest. We would very much like to have a second child. It took over 3 years for our daughter to “come to us”, involving several miscarriages, and God knows, how long it will take this time. Planning ahead isn’t easy in these kinds of situations.




We tend to live very reasonably — buy mostly fresh food and prepare everything from scratch, cook the same food for more days, buy hardly any cosmetic products, use public transport as often as possible, buy preowned clothes, goods and child equipment. We visit the library instead of buying new books. We sell / swap / give redundant things instead of throwing them away. We don’t take our daughter to paid fun parks and similar places, don’t pay for any courses, rather we go out in nature, socialize her with similar aged friends. We care for the environment and avoid buying single use stuff, try to think ahead and contribute a little towards environment protection by caring for the insect, birds, trees.




I know I could go back to work. And it might help. But I feel our daughter still needs me and I value the relationship I have with her very much. It may seem weird, but she is still partially breast-fed and many people compliment her personality and speaking skills. Working and caring for her simultaneously might bring me closer to a burn-out I have once experienced in the past. It took me months to recover. Besides, there are not many “returning mom” jobs that would pay enough to cover kindergarten costs as well as improve our situation. We do have both our families living in the same city, so moving further to a cheaper region would not help much, as our parents are in their late 60’s now and we want to stay close. It might also cause another business struggle and involve further costs.




I feel ashamed to ask for help – especially when we are not in a deep crisis as such. But then I think – maybe there’s someone out there, who doesn’t mind or even likes helping and it can help us live a calmer life.




Thank you for reading the lengthy story and if you somehow relate to our situation, views or dreams, please consider helping:





Thank you a thousand times!

Desserts Shop in UK is waiting to open!!


My talent is making sweets and desserts, and I had been working as a pastry chef for years. I love making healthy versions of traditional sweets, and adding supperfoods to make them nutritious and turn them into energy boosts. I am told that I am very good at that, and I think so too.


My life dream is to open my own desserts shop in the UK, and for that reason I was saving my money since I was 24 years old – now I am 40. This means no travelling, no shopping- except all strictly necessary, and going out once in a blue moon. Because of that, I have very few friends, but I know they are true friends.


Last year, I believed that my life dream will come true, as the money I had managed to save, along with a plot of land I had sold, was almost 37000 euros (in euros, because I live in Greece), which was enough to feel secure in order to quit my lousy 12hour shift for 400euro-a-month job and finally follow my dream. It would be enough for renting a place, setting it up, and having my first expenses covered until I could live off of my shop.  This money was raised with many difficulties, as there were several times that I helped friends in need, serious family problems that needed attending, and two occasions that I had lost my job and needed to live off of that money.


Unfortunately, my father’s debt, that I had been paying for years myself and thought that it was over, reached my bank account without any notice, and I realized it when I logged in to pay for a ticket to Manchester. I was so surprised to see that the Greek government took around 30000 euros from my account, because I was an immediate relative of the person that took a loan many years ago, in other words I had inherited debt but didn’t know. As much as I tried to claim my money back, I couldn’t. Since last year, I have spent all the rest of the money I had left, on laywer fees and food, and I borrowed some money from my good friends. I let my flat, as I couldn’t afford it, and live in a friend’s backup room in his store.  I have sold my car, my laptop, my mobile phone, I have given away almost all of my clothes and shoes and stuff, and my personal belongings now fit in a small suitcase.


I don’t see a way of being able to stand on my own feet again, I have tried to get a job but I don’t get hired because of my age and accommodation status. I live in a small town, and everyone knows I quit my last job in a not-so-nice way, as I announced my resignation to my boss in front of his best clients, along  with the reasons for that, especially the fact that he was calling me ‘stupid’, and ‘useless’ all the time, even though I was doing all the work. I now make around 120 euros per month, running errands and being the extra help for a catering service, where I work for 4 euros per hour, every time they need me. Sometimes, like now, I use a friend’s computer to look for a job, but she needs it for work at the times that I can use it.


I don’t smoke, I don’t drink alcohol,  I don’t take drugs, I don’t gamble, I have never done anything illegal or had problems with the law. I am a very religious person and I have never harmed anyone. What I wanted was to leave behind my family’s reputation and live in a place where they would only see me and my talent.


What I need is money to stand on my feet, and I would also like to be able to open my shop. I tried to ask for a 20000 euro loan, and less, but I own nothing and I have no job, so I was refused. My friends have their own personal problems, and they are already helping me as much as they can, so I would never expect anything more from them anyway.


The only thing I have left to do, is to beg, so I am begging for your help. And this is not easy for me, even though I do it anonymously. Just please, if you think you can send money to me, I would really like to know who you are or where you would like me to send this money to, when I am able to do so, because I would like to give it back. It makes me very uneasy to be in here and ask for help among other people with serious health problems,and please, help them first, but I know that my shop will rock, so I will be able to give the money back.


If you read this far, Thank you so much for taking the time. I have been preparing the text by hand for a week before typing it here, so thank you for at least reading this. Either you can help me or not, I hope I can serve you my famous honey puffs one day :)

Help me make a change in my country


Before I start, I would like to thank you for taking your time to read this!


WHY I NEED YOUR HELP :


– In Bulgaria pensioners who have worked their whole life(including retired soldiers) get 90 Euros per month pension… That is NOT enough to either pay their medical bills(YES, medical treatment is NOT free), nor they can eat normally. And rent costs around 200 Euros!!!


– I’ve moved to Germany to work and save money for my dream. 50 000 Euros will help me to start in 2-3 months of time! My end goal is to have 200 000 Euros, but  to start I just need 50 000. I will get 75 000 by myself and take a loan for the rest of the 75 000. As of now I am working between 65-70 hours a week…


WHAT IS MY DREAM :


Buy real estate, rent it, collect the money AND help Bulgarian pensioners pay their bills and if my campaign grows large enough – help people get education at language courses, financial seminars, etc…


WHAT WILL THE ADDITIONAL MONEY BE USED FOR :


1) First priority(first stage) is helping Bulgarian pensioners financially. They tend to use and stay for hours in public transportation(buses, trams, etc) so they don’t have to pay electrical bills during Winter.



2) Second priority(second stage) is to finance the education of Bulgarian people. Most of Bulgaria’s youth doesn’t have enough money to be able to pay for additional courses. That could be programming or language courses. As I was in 9th grade I wanted to learn Russian and German. But I couldn’t, because my mom couldn’t finance the courses.passfoto.jpg


3) Third priority(third stage) is once my campaign gets popularity to invite popular entrepreneurs to Bulgaria so they can speak in front of audiences. Bulgaria needs this motivation so badly like no other country does. We need more jobs that pay more than 2-2,5 Euros per hour. We need jobs that help us live a comfortable life. And that is a way to inspire a young generation.


WHAT I HOPE FOR :


I hope that with my actions I will be able to get some of the attention of the media and make my idea popular. That way I will be able to get additional financing so we can be able to rebuild Bulgaria from its core – the education that people get and take care of the ones who have already done their part for the country. After I manage to that, the idea will grow outside of Bulgaria’s boarders and will get to other countries that are in a dire need of help.


Either way if you decide to donate me money or not – I want to thank you for reading this! I am a 20 year old boy with big dreams and I hope that you will decide to support me so I can start walking the path towards my dreams. I know that it is a lot of money to ask for in any country… But it is all I need to start a change in my country. Please help me start this long awaited change(since 1989 to be exact). Thank you in advance!
