Good day to everyone.

I never imagined, that I will sink so low at any point of my life. I always dared to dream big and believed that by this time I will be financially successful. Well now I am 28 years old and life took a very big turn in the opposite direction. I do however try to keep a positive attitude, but it just feels like there is no way out.

So, from the beginning of april and until the end of august I have been on sick leave, because of an injury. During this time I was receiving less than a minimum wage, so the savings depleted very fast. I pay all the bills, and my girlfriend at the time was unemployed. I also have to take care of my father who is suffering from illness. In september I went back to work, only to find out that I will be fired by the end of the month. And also my long time girlfriend left me for unclear reasons. And now I don’t know how I will pay next months bills. I don’t even know if I will be able to eat. My biggest concern or fear is that I will not be able to take care of my father. Right now he is the only person that I have left. I know he wants to help me too, but he simply is unable. His pension is so low, that I have to buy food for him too. I really have nowhere else to turn.

I do have quite a number of skills but somehow I just can’t get a new job. Mostly I think that is because I do have a limitation due to the injury. It will take several more months to heal fully.

I do believe that somehow I will get throught this. If there is anyone who is willing to donate it would mean the world to me. I only ask for what I need and nothing more. With this donation, you would help me on my way to get back on my feet. And also, you would help me to take care of my father.

I would be grateful for any kind of support.

My situation is to just get throught the month so what I am asking is 1000€. Please.

Here is my Paypal link: paypal.me/stasboz

I wish to thank everyone for the much needed help. And I hope that everything repays you 1000X.

Have a good day everyone and thank you.

Dear Reader,

I hope that this letter finds you well.

My name is Roselyne and I’m a French painter and teacher in Art and Art History.

English is not my native language and I apologize in advance for any mistake in the following lines.

My goal in life has always been to show people, especially children and teenagers, the beauty of our world through the lense of Art. I’m passionate about Art and all civilizations, past and present, their achievements, their knowledge. Nothing makes me happier than making people discover new evidence of human ingenuity. In a world laced by violence, I believe that connecting people with their roots and with others civilizations through Art is meaningful. That’s my duty, at my small level.

Sadly, my dream was destroyed by a man, who had the power to change my life for the worst.

I moved far from my home to start a new teaching position in 2020 and this man, who was an inspector, as soon as he knew I was here, even before meeting me in person, hated me. He refused to see me as he was supposed to do, arguing that he had no time for that. I was too passionate maybe, too different, not fitting the little box he wanted to see me in. I had excellent records and a PhD in Art History. Maybe he was jealous of that and of my success with my students. I don’t know. What I know is that for a whole year, he made my professional life a living hell. Because after he refused to meet me as it was the rule, my boss had to request the help of the Minister of Education’s Office. And the inspector was forced to meet me. He didn’t like that. Not at all. He humiliated me and bullied me multiple times, even in front of my students. Nobody could do anything, not my boss, not even the inspector’s boss. Everybody feared him because he was politically protected. He finally told me after a whole year of humiliation that he could not allow me to teach again. And that was it. I could not do anything, even if I wanted to sue him for moral harassment and abuse of power. The other teachers, all of them women, who were bullied by this horrible man, refused to sue him with me because they were afraid. And in the end, I did nothing. I was alone. And lost.

I lost my job. The parents of my students started a petition for me. It was useless.

I lost my job even if I was one of the only teachers working online with my students during the pandemic, even if I was one of the only teachers present in the school just after the last lockdown.

This was a tragedy for me, because he made it clear that I could not teach again in the north east of France. And I had no money left to move again somewhere else. Because of this man, I had to refuse two full-time jobs in the area. To refuse work is absolutely horrible when you are desperately in need for money. And I was.

I fell into a deep depression, with suicidal thoughts. I could not reopen my studio because I had no place to open it, I could not afford to pay for that. And so my students, who were so eager to learn, to create, could not continue with me outside school. The few teaching lessons I gave at home were not enough to live.

My bills started to pill up, my rent was not paid in time, then not at all. I was not even opening the mail, I was completely alone and could not manage anything as basic as that. I tried to open a studio in partnership with the city but ultimately, the mayor refused to help, even just to provide a place for it. Out of despair, I tried to kill myself. All around me, I could see my books, Art History books, everywhere in my apartment, piles and piles of precious books I was sometimes offering as gift to my students when I still had my job. These books were the reminder of my failure.

For months, because of my depression, I was unable to find a job. But I’m not a quitter and so I finally decided to fight back. I could not let this man win so easily. I wanted my life back! So I tried hard to find a job, even not related to my field, but it was never working. I opened a small online shop, but my sales were, and still are, just anecdotal. I can’t live from this source of income.

Today, I’m facing eviction. My power will be cut in the next few days, it’s imminent. My water supply will be cut too. And my internet connection, which means that I will not be able to continue my small online shop. Still, I have found a new teaching position, and I’m working again since september 1st, but because of an administrative issue, I will not get paid before end of November (if I’m lucky). It’s France, and the teachers under contract are often facing this kind of problem when they start a new position. So I work, full-time, and since I don’t have any paycheck yet, I have to take the train without a ticket just to go to work. Everyday. Praying for not to be caught.

This is so humiliating.

I work hard and have to wait for my paycheck, not even having a signed contract yet. I don’t know what to do right now else than asking you to help me survive this ordeal. I desperately need your help in order to pay my bills and stop the eviction process. How could I teach if I’m homeless? I don’t even have a car to live in. And what will happen to my precious library? I have nowhere to store it.

My dream is to reopen my studio and teach again in that place. I’m working hard in order to make it happen but I truly need help, just to eat and not be homeless in the next days. Just to keep my apartment and save my books and paintings.

I ideally need  8000 dollars to pay my back rent (3600 dollars) and bills (2000), and to wait for my first paycheck, not being sure when it will come .

If you want to see any document, my eviction notice, my bills, my back rent, of course, I can show them to you. You can reach me at: neferouptah@gmail.com. Do not hesitate to contact me.

For now, please, I beg you, help me. Any help is welcome. Your kind contribution will make a huge difference for me and I hope to be able soon to help people in need too.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter. May you all be blessed.

Sincerely yours,

Roselyne

Hello everybody.

We are an English Cambodian couple and have just got a new little daughter!

I am a disability pensioner (due to military and civilian injuries) and live from a moderate pension that was enough to live on before the russian war against Ukraine but that is now barely enough for everyday living. My wife can’t work. Any money I could earn would ultimately be subtracted from my pension meaning I would be working at a loss. So there is no way to earn extra money myself.

Our problem is this. The registry office has just informed me that to issue our newborn a birth certificate we first need to get my wifes original birth certificate legitimised. This has to be done at the german embassy in Phnom Penh (for language reasons). Just sending the certificate will not work. I have had to deal with this embassy and one particular german employee there several times before and know how difficult they can be. The only safe and halfway rapid way to get things done is to go there and deal with the officials in person. Previously I have had to get lawyers involved (from Germany) to get them to do something they by law had to do but they just went ahead and ignored the lawyers anyway (maybe deliberately) and slowed things down resulting in unneeded and irreversible difficulties for my elder daughter. As I speak fluent german it is easier to get things done there face to face. Any other way will take too long or eventually fail meaning having to fly there anyway at a later date delaying everything else much more.

Without a birth certificate for our newborn we are stuck in many ways. We can’t get child benefits or other government help we are entitled to nor can we get any kind of travel document/passport for the baby and a whole host of other things right down to her health insurance card. At the beginning almost everything remotely important needs a birth certificate.

As we don’t have the money for me to fly there I’m hoping somebody here can help. The very cheapest “cattle class” flight is quite expensive due to the russian war (again) at around 1500€ for a return ticket. Another 500€ would be a massive help to pay for food and the cheapest accommodation I can find while there (at least three weeks to be sure the embassy “has enough time” to process things). Any donations beyond that would be helpful but not essential. I have previously lived in Cambodia so I am in no way a tourist there or a wannabe tourist for that matter. I have urgent and otherwise difficult to solve problems and no time for sightseeing things that I have already seen many times anyway.

I have no idea what the embassy itself will charge for its services but that won’t be a huge amount anyway.

To summarise, I hope to get enough to cover the cheapest flights (1500€), the accommodation/food (500€) would be a great help too and anything beyond that would be useful for anything unexpected. I will do everything possible to keep costs low and in the event donations cover at least those two points anything left over at the end will be donated to Ukrainian victims of the russian war via St. Javelin.

I am grateful for any help solving this and thankyou in advance!

Hello,
I come here swallowing all my pride to ask for financial help, I grew up with an education that forbids asking even when it’s difficult but this has become too much for me.

I’m a married woman with 3 children and my mother lives with us. At the time, I wanted my parents to live with us because they were ill and I wanted to be able to keep an eye on them because I didn’t want them to be alone in their old age. My mother was recovering from breast cancer and my father had Alzheimer’s disease. He died a few years ago; my mother is now a widow.

The 6 of us have been living in a house for nearly 10 years, which we’ve been trying to renovate until now so that we can live comfortably; the renovations still haven’t been completed because we’ve often encountered financial difficulties.
I was working and earning a decent salary, but I was made redundant. I then wanted to set up an events business, but being on my own I’m overwhelmed by the work and despite all my efforts I can’t manage to pay myself a decent salary, not to mention the fact that I’ve been waiting several months now for payment from certain customers.
My husband works hard, puts in extra hours and deprives himself of a lot of things to pay for shopping, children’s affairs, housework and everything else we need, but his salary isn’t enough to pay all our bills.

Today, we have to cope with mortgage payments, car loans, taxes, insurance, day-to-day expenses and we’re accumulating unpaid bills and bank overdrafts…
What’s more, we’re in dispute over a Van we bought 3 years ago; the car we borrowed €19,000 from the bank for broke down after 7 months (the engine no longer worked). The seller swindled us; we’re trying to get justice but the case is still pending and we’re still paying a loan on this vehicle that we don’t drive.

We’ve always managed to keep our heads above water, but now we’re broke.
We’ve even taken out loans to pay off a few debts, as we thought we’d be able to do so in the future, but the situation isn’t getting any better…

As I speak, we’re over €5,000 in debt this month alone. I’ve been looking for a job for several months, I’ve applied but I’ve had no positive response. If we had no more debt, no more loans, we’d be relieved and I could even be less demanding in my job search.

If someone were to ask me today what the ideal amount would be to get out of this situation completely, I’d say without hesitation €500,000, because this sum would pay off absolutely all our loans and free us from debt… on our home loan we still have around €300,000 to pay off, our combined car loans have €20,000 left to pay off, the various loans we’ve taken out to pay off certain debts + our overdrafts make a total of €8,000.
This brings us to a total of €328,000.

The remaining €172,000 would be used to finish the work on our house so that we can live comfortably, and we could then, with our jobs – because I’m still hoping to find a job soon – save money to avoid taking out any more bank loans.

Honestly, I’m really really tired of this situation, which has been going on for several months now. Every day is difficult, and I’m constantly worried about how we’re going to get out of it. My husband and I feel like we’re fighting for nothing because something always happens to make our situation worse just when we think it’s going to get better… What I’m looking for is to be free of debt, for help, for a solution so that my family and I can live serenely, so that we can finally breathe.

Thank you for your help,
