CANCER SURVIVOR WANTS TO START A HEALING CENTER IN ECUADOR

EduardoyMami.png

My name is Eduardo Mendoza, 34 years old, Ecuadorian citizen, resident in the city of Quito, Ecuador.

My story began in December 2014, while I was completing my medical degree, I received the diagnosis of a very aggressive variety of skin cancer. This was, given the studies and views of a group of oncologists from the SOLCA oncology hospital (cancer fighting society) in addition to other public hospitals. They did not give me much hope to fight this very hard battle, in fact it was the toughest, most difficult and painful experience, in addition to being the most expensive battle of my life.  Faced with such a horrible situation in just one month, my clinical situation became complicated in such a way that I could not fend for myself. I lost total control of my body, when I had already felt that my life would reach its end.  With no hope of anything, in a medical system that simply stopped believing that I had any possibilities of living, I remember (at that time) that one of my doctors in the emergency room said directly to my family that It was best to take me home so I could die there since “there was nothing they could do for me”. This medical suggestion made my mother shudder, shattered by the pain of seeing me in such a state, it really was a very critical deplorable state in which I practically lost my life for a few moments, while my body lay on that couch and my family simply waited for my death.

 

My body looked full of pain.  Waiting for my outcome, the only thing I remembered, at some point, was in the space I could see myself trying to calm them down to tell them that everything would be fine, but nobody could see or hear me.  At that moment I assumed that my time to leave the world had arrived.  I cannot explain how or why, but at that moment I perceived an energy that simply prompted me to return to my body, open my eyes and the first thing I did at that moment was to use the little force that I had left to hold my Mother’s hand and say “Mommy don’t cry anymore, don’t worry I’m fine and I don’t want to leave, because I’m sure I won’t die”.

Upon hearing this the doctors decided to do everything in their power to stabilize me. I effectively managed to get out of such a horrendous crisis, and 2 months later, I could walk.

I was in my process of fighting this terrible Cancer, receiving 33 chemotherapies, which in fact left me destroyed, having every cell of my body with a sensitivity that any simple brush on my skin translated into the most immense pain.  But this did not stop me.  Day by day I gained more faith, prayed for my fellow sufferers that they were going through a similar situation trying to encourage them to fight not to lose the Faith not to give up, to say “Yes I can”. But painfully, I saw many leave. during their attempt.

I have always been an exemplary father, son, brother and friend, and having had to leave my medical career, but still not give up on achieving my purpose of reaching my goals and making my vocation a lifesaving experience.

I want to tell the world that my story does not stop there. This is my second chance to be able to do something that during my healing process I understood that there is too much missing in our world. Medicine has ceased to be that noble vocation in which one was prepared to save lives no matter what situation, race, sex or social position, but now graduates must first think how much they can earn economically,  losing humanity, not being concerned by the suffering of their patients, not knowing how to guide them or encouraging them to live, and it is really sad.

With your support to help me setup a project of faith, even while I continue with constant monthly medical check-ups, , I want to achieve my medical degree and build a healing center, where I can help all the people, not only in my country, who are going through a desperate health situation of this nature, and that they are in limbo of thinking: “I don’t know what to do, how I will be able to continue living?”, ”who can do something for me?”.

I need $25 000 000 USD to build a basic and effective healing center. You are welcome to become part of this huge project.  I know that everything is possible after what I had to live through. Everything is about never giving up, and never losing faith. Please, if it is in your hands to help me achieve these goals, give me the opportunity to help these people in the world.  HELP ME to set up my healing center, so that everything I do is for the good of humanity and our Heavenly Father will make it a miracle come true.

I do not know what else to do…

I live in Guatemala city, I´m a single mom, I take care of my widow mom, my little sister and my daughter here, I work full time but since my dad passed away two years ago, it has been quite difficult since then, I had a car accident in January where I almost die, and I change my job to be closer to my family.

Right now I´m just desperate because I need to pay our rent and I don´t know what else to do.

It´s hard to be a single mom because my daughter has many allergies and the food that I need to give her it has to be without soy, gluten, oats, and other things and here in this country this type of food is very expensive.

I’m currently studying in collage because I got a scholarship thanks to my grades and also my little sister because that was one of the last things my dad did before died.

I really need help to cover the payments and to get out of all this.

I am sure that in the way I receive help, this will be multiplied to the people who can support me, with whatever amount, by the exchange rate, it is a great help.

I haven’t continue my medical treatment because on the job that I’m currently working, I do not have insurance and it’s okay because I need to work for my family and that is more important for me now, I know that there are good people around the world that can help those we need.

Thank you for taking the time and read my situation and especially for empathizing with me and helping not only me but my family in this hard situation, I never thought that this life and this moments without my dad they would be so difficult, I think that is actually one of the things that hurt the most and it is the hardest way you can at least try to live with that pain, that felling you have that not only you miss that person but also you miss their support, their strong, his bravery, their way to remain positive after a lot of problems around you and your family.

I really want to be strong, and I am thankful that I found this website where I can express what I feel and try to let off steam.

NO SUPPORT NETWORK LEFT ALONE

I have found myself in one of the most horrible situations of my life right now, after being in many ways a productive and impetuous individual during my 20s. I am 31 years old and took the decision to leave my hometown Beirut and move to Santiago de Chile few months ago. I haven’t found it easy to settle here and I’ve also had some health complications along the way. I ran out of money last week after being scammed by several “financial institutions” here that I had decided to give a chance, it was a terrible experience. I went homeless for the first time in my life for two nights and it was a terrifying experience for me. I am working as a freelancer now and I am trying to build some network but again it is a new place and it hasn’t been easy to adapt. I am also working on a project I’ve had in mind for quite a while now, opening an online interior design services shop. I am in need of some support and my family is very distant to be honest. I have texted my siblings and some relatives and practically been ignored by them. Just in total honesty, I need a hand while i stabilize and get back on my feet.

Thank you all for your understanding and support. Genuinely.

Put your Grain of Earth and be Part of the Change

We are increasingly living apart from Mother Nature.

It is time to Live in Balance with her, in the same Harmony.

We are a Family that is dedicated to Nature and the rescue of Ancestral Knowledge, which is getting lost faster and faster.

We have been preparing the Site for almost 7 years to start a Learning Center focused especially on Children.

A different education educating from Love and the knowledge of Nature.    With a different philosophy of seeing and living life

We are dedicated to consulting and advising on Sustainable Development projects. We do field studies for Water and Energy design , bioArchitecture and Food Sustainability.

We Produce and Sell products in Local Markets, we give Courses and we are doing what we can to be able to Finance the Project.

For three years the Family began to grow and we started with the Construction of our Home.

They have been years of hard Work and Expenses, we are currently in a not very favorable situation. Our Second Child arrived late last year. So we spend time raising them and the income dropped a lot to the point of reaching Zeroes.

The House is in its final phase but at the same time it is the most expensive.

Missing: finish all roof layers, wiring and electrical part, water system, solar cell system and storage batteries, Kitchen, Bathrooms, floors, windows, glass, doors, etc.

At the beginning of the year we started an Instagram and a Go Get Funding with the hope of receiving some kind of support. So far we have not achieved anything and today we reach a situation of despair, the bank account is zero and we do not want to neglect the attention of Children.

https://www.instagram.com/earthgrain/

Please, if someone wants to Cooperate, contact us, we have many things and information about sustainability, nature, bio-construction, conscious food, etc. that we could share with you.

Without more for now we thank all the People who have taken the time and the trouble to read and get here.

We Thank Everyone who wants to participate and we hope that with your help we can gradually get out of this hole and with the House finished and the children a little older can continue with the Center for Learning Arts, knowledge and ancestral crafts.

May the light always illuminate them and the warmth of our Mother always cover and protect them.

Family in really need.

Alajuela, Costa Rica July 11, 2019

I am Víctor Vargas, although I am a teacher in my country Costa Rica, I have fallen into financial bankruptcy. My salary goes to pay debts and taxes, because I work for the government and I have to pay back around 27%, only from taxes and others.

Two situations have led me to my monetary situation, the first has to do with my wife Martha, who is a cancer survivor, twice she has been operated to remove malignant tumors. But in April of 2017 they took a malignant tumor from her tongue and mouth and they mutilated 70% of her tongue, she did not want to undergo the dreaded chemotherapy, but they asked for an alternative treatment for her, that cost us a lot of money and we did it but with loans. Today is pretty good, but you have to take a very expensive diet almost liquid, because she can not eat solid foods for the reasons given, to deal with this situation we had to resort to more loans. In this country as in others, I could work a little in another job other than teaching, but if I did; I could not take care of my wife.

About a year ago, things were not going well financially I accepted the advice of a friend to invest sa few  money in some of those pages that swarm on the internet offering to make rich to anyone who follows their advice, as he told me that  a friend of his had been very good, I think I will do ,too, but did not advise me with correct and honest people I got two credit cards, and sent money to invest about  $ 6.000. At first I was trusted because they sent me money, like $ 500 from headquarters of the bank to which they said they were associated. But at the end of last year they never showed up on the internet and they scammed me with more than $ 7000, money that I am now paying on loans, the cure was worse than the disease.

In this country if you work for the government there is no minimum wage limit that they should respect, on the contrary if you fall behind with a loan with a financial institution the finance ministry accepts that you double rebate until you get up to date with your debts, they do not matter, whether you eat or not, or if you do not satisfy your most basic needs.

In conclusion this is my story, I currently owe  two months of house rent $ 1200, and on July 15 next Monday, it will be 3 months for  $ 1800, my landlord told me that if Monday July 15 I do not have the money I must leave the house and pay him as soon as possible. I have nowhere to go or money to pay for another house, however cheap it is, I currently live with my wife a daughter who is in college and works to pay for her studies, and help to half-eat. She earn about $ 700 per month, besides a 7-year-old granddaughter who attends school lives with us.

I am currently receiving $ 200 of salary, I almost do not get anything at all I have to move from one city to another to go to work, almost that money goes in tickets. Already several times this year we have cut electricity, we no longer have internet. I am in a very urgent situation, I am very embarrassed that someone I know read this letter, I expect the greatest discretion on your part.

I am a person who believes in God I have asked for your help, but I still do not see the answer. But my situation does not wait, nothing written here is a lie.

Many times in work a shift from 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 p.m. or 14 hours without counting the two extra hours that it takes me to travel by bus, and when I get hungry I eat the leftovers of food that my colleagues leave in the refrigerator. This is very painful but sometimes I can not stand hunger, and I have not wanted to tell any of my colleagues about my difficult situation. Only my family and I know what we live day to day.

God bless you, desperate man who loves his family.

I hope you read this.

Hello There,

 

I do not know where to start and I feel like this is the craziest thing I have done, but I hope that this will reach you. Since I don’t have any other choice or hope … here we go:

 

I am a girl, 22 years old and I study International Marketing, I was born and raised in German. I am currently doing my double degree and exchange year abroad. Since I was a little Girl I had dreams that were always far from reality but I am a believer and someone who truly believes that anything is possible and that you can be anything you want in life.

 

My parents have always supported me as much as they can, which I truly appreciate.

Now I am at a point where my financial situation (especially since I am a student) are very poor. I am someone that tries to work towards a solution and I never believed in the fact that anything comes easy, because I am sure that all comes with hard work.

 

But I reached a point where my parents can’t support me more because it is really out of their will. And I cannot change it and pay my debt off and I am very depressed with my situation because I want to keep going and grow and achieve something, I can be proud of, but it is nearly impossible. And since my parents can’t afford supporting me during my stay in Mexico, I have become very anxious and depressed because everything I work out that would gain me profit is failing every Idea. Rent keeps getting higher and so do the debts and I keep getting more demotivated. And yes, I know nothing ever works from the first try, because what comes fast goes fast but I feel like a dark cloud is over my head and I can’t see the light. Because debts are growing, payments are coming in and my health situation… well don’t get me started on that.

 

Therefore, and only because I lost hope and I am in a very uncomfortable situation regarding my debts and I am ashamed of asking my parents because they simply can’t even though they would want to..

I reached out to you. And I am not asking for a gift here or money as a present, I am asking for it as a light in my very dark situation that will help me be lifted up and be able to keep going and to follow my dreams and finish my education. Because I am and never been interested in owning materialistic things, but I just want to be able to sleep again without worrying about the thousands of debts and payments I have to make and how to be able to work to get it because it is not possible with my studies.

 

I know it is crazy, and I know this will never reach you, but if it does… I just want you to know that If you would support me, I will definitely never forget that and that someday I will be someone that goes on TV and talks about how I managed to find light in the darkness and how I was able to reach my goals and make all of my dreams come true.

 

And yes, I know sometimes life has to get hard in order for us to move and do something, but I am really at a very depressing point and that can be proved by writing you this.

 

I hope you read this and If you do: Thank you.

Kindest regards,
A little dreamer girl who has to pay rent and debts.

Debt, please help!

Hello there.

I am a mother of two children, and one on the way.

My husband safely got laid off, fired, about 5 months ago. He was working for a great company which unfortunately did not have use for him anymore. He is a university graduate, in his field he was one of the best. He’s a computer scientist, yet he struggled to find another job in his field.

He had a great salary reason for which we were convinced we could pay off the loan that we threw on our backs. Sadly, during that time that he was off of work, we we’re living off of our savings. No more credits because we knew what could have happened to us. Well, life happened, our children’s food, milk, diapers, and everything in between. As a family we were together.

 

When he couldn’t find a job, we decided that maybe I should start looking too, since times were getting tougher on us. Well, when I was about to take the reigns, I found out I was pregnant. So I could no longer search for a job… I unlike my husband am not a professional. I did not graduate highschool, so any job I would get would be a little tougher on me.

 

He has not found a job in his field. But he is working as of now, with a construction company…

Well today of all things, since we’ve been behind on payments, we received a visit from a lawyer. The man was kind enough to tell my husband that the loaners did not care where and how he got the money from, so long as he paid by Monday morning…

 

Life happened to us… Just like it happens to many others…

They are going to reposes our car, and take anything that is under our names… if anyone could find it in their hearts to help us we will really appreciate it! We owe 18000+, but we can get up to date with, 7052…

Thank you so much for helping out our cause, this is my PayPal.me/Gmstrs.

Blessings to all of you!

18-year-old boy trying to move forward

Hello! I am a boy of 18 years currently living in Latin America. I am here to ask for help to start an investment business which would give me the opportunity to help at home because in Venezuela it is a bit difficult to move forward when you can barely eat. I wish I could pay for my studies; learn programming, photography, music and learn a third language, have a future and a normal life. I have the knowledge and the ideas, but I do not have the money. The idea of the business that I have starts with $ 5,000 and it is all that I will need for myself to multiply that money in investments. Such as learning to program to work online, invest in PTC page to help it grow. I’m not asking for money to fix my life, I’m asking for money to give me the base, the first step to start my life. All help is not much will be very well received. I would appreciate it a lot.

I can not thank you enough.

Tuition and more. I need to breathe

I have worked all my life as many hours as needed and as many days as possible to provide opportunities for my family. Yet, in the process fell prisoner of debt to pay for tuition, sports activities, even to represent our country in international competitions.

It is very difficult to make the decision to request the help and support of others since we’ve been taught it is detrimental to our image, it is a shame to recognize we need help beyond the four walls of our house, but there comes a time where to be able to breathe there is nothing more I can do. I need your help and support.

Mother of four, I have always worked 12+ hours a day to try to meet my families needs. School is extremely important since I see education as the gift I can provide to make their lives better. It has been number one priority way before fancy food, restaurants, clothing, housing, or cars. I have almost made it, if it wasn’t for the loans and credit card debt I have had to endure to be able to afford the costs of living and a good education.

Many sacrifices have been part of my situation. The toughest my own education. Many years have gone by and I have had to put my own school on hold to pay for theirs. At this point less than 10 days from having to pay tuition to enroll the next quarter courses, I am not sure how I will be able to stay in college or if I will start all. I am not sure if I am going to have to keep it on hold again. I am behind with school payments and it tortures me. I am working 12 +hours…and cannot make ends meet.  Credit cards are due the 20th, and I just haven’t figured out what to do.

I work, and a lot. I just can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. I live day by day, hoping for a bright future, knowing I can and I will, someday , somehow. But at this moment in time, what I am making is not enough to keep me afloat.

Banks are not an option because of the amount of debt. I have managed to make lasts months payment, but past the 14th of may, money coming in is not enough to make the card payments, but specially tuition (school and college).

If you have read this far I can assure you, that if you decide to support us, we are rich soil. Supporting our dreams of education and a debt free life that can be supported with our income will bring the greatest of joys and harvest to yours.  I will share with you our academic and life success.  You will be adding life to our family, just to enrich yours.

We are currently $55000 in debt, with $4000 in tuitions to finish the school year. I know and I really appreciate all your support. Know that I will keep working non-stop to make this work, and I will definitely pay it forward.

May your life be strengthens as much as you are strengthening ours. May your life be joyful and successful, overflowing with love and freedom.

Thank you for understanding, thank you for supporting us, thank you for adding to our life.

My wish is to be able to help others, by being helped first that is

Greetings if you’re interested on what I’m about to write. Ill try to make it simple so you don’t get bored, but at the same time explain some points while being honest.

  • First my mind: I don’t know to be honest if this is gonna work, nor who’s reading this, or even if there’s really people this site claims to have who wants to help, although chances are there’s a bunch of high tier, economically people wanting to help the best causes (and i would become one of them tho).

My meta: Maybe it will be an awkward one, or it could be a common one, who knows with the lots of peeps in need, but trust me when i say, it’s not a fake one.I want to be doing something i could enjoy to make money, but why do i want money in the first place? to help causes like mine at this moment and to help my family. I want to get a proper build setup to stream, so make myself a streaming career or YouTube, it’s no news that, money goes high on those careers. Somewhat i would like to become a modern Robin hood i guess, i would love to help low economically people, but i also have more in mind, to expand my help to animals in need etc, to be honest i have a lot of wishes i would like to accomplish, with the helping topic.

I know there’s some streamers (a very slow portion) or Youtubers who helps, but to be honest, not in the grade i would like to do, or they help the wrong people, now some example would be the Mr beast. He does help, but other streamers who already have everything to do a proper work, just lacking viewers in that case, or he donates to other high money streamers, i mean, hes not helping guys like us in the first place, not a noble accomplish in my book.

  • About me: I’m 26 years old, probably the most uncommon one you would ever see, I’ve this dream since i was very young, but my family problems made my life a lot harder. I’ve a lot of skill to do everything i would propose to do (not an exaggeration), i like gaming and it’s not an exception to my skill, so that’s why i want to give it a try, i mean doing what you like, being someone and at the same time, doing a noble cause, i think it’s just perfect.

Yeah cute story, but how much you need?: I think ill keep it on the minimum wich would be about 5000usd (it can even go higher but a start is all i need) , any help would be appreciated. Even if i don’t succeed on here, i would keep on trying the hard way, hope my post got into you, if you want to hear more, you’re more than welcome.

Thanks for reading, if you like to help here:

My family wants to stay at home

56935203_10157255522394295_3386266552490786816_n.jpg

We are a family from Costa Rica, actually I am having a hard time trying to pay my bills which have increased little by little like a snowball to become impossible to be paid with my monthly income. It took us like 10 years to build this house you see in this picture. Our problems right now is that we cannot afford the mortgage. The interest rate is increasing every month and has become so difficult to eat, pay bills and the mortgage.

I am a positive person, I have tried for 2 years to look for some solutions to this, one of them, was to create a great English academy for students all over the country and why not? all over the world by apps or websites, I have found no help for renting a place to start and building one academy demands lots of money that I do not have right now; on the contrary, I owe $120.000 among our house mortgage and credits to survive that I have asked before and now, they are killing our finances at home.

I know there are people interested in helping people, I know there are people who believe in dreams, who believe in giving a hand for the needy people today in order to receive help when they could be in need too. I Know my potential, I know I need one chance to start something special and to save my house and my family. I do not want to lose what took me years to build, I want a future for my 2 years old boy, I want to give him a better life. I just need a hand, thanks a million for all. I am attaching my house pic and my mortgage pic, also this is my paypal account. thanks for donating paypal.me/ava1316

College Girl

I thought my life was great.

I thought my life was on the right track even though I got pregnant at 17.

It was my first time having a boyfriend and I was barely having sex when I got pregnant. Still everything was okay, it was stressed free and just about happy.

I stayed home for about 2 years taking care of my daughter and her father would help to take care of us. And since I was still living with my parent, things were just right. I would wake up every morning and comb her hair . I would wash her clothes in the night and got up very early the next morning to hang them out. This way I got to spend the entire day with her and could give her all my attention. At one year and two months old my daughter was potty-trained.

One day while scrolling on the internet on some career blog posting, I came across a job. I applied to the job and I got it.

This job would require a lot of traveling since it was out of state. So each morning I would wake up at 4 am, get ready and leave out by 5 am. The bus sometimes don’t leave until around 5:30. By 7:15 am I would reach the other state and it took about another 30 minutes to get to this job, that starts at 8. I was never late. At least I tried not be because two strikes and you’re out. I would leave this job at 5 and went straight to the bus station and catch a bus for another 2 hour ride back home. I did this everyday from Monday to Friday.

I never got tired of doing this, even though I found myself sleeping on the bus most mornings and even one morning I found myself resting on a gentleman’s shoulder, he never flinched or anything and I think that’s because he must have thought I was an innocent little girl travelling alone to another state very early. Though I had a baby and was 19, I looked a lot like a little girl around 14, slim-built, small head with a very innocent looking face. When I told my friends at work that had a baby, no one believed me, some said it was my sister, others said I should be good and remain focused. So eventually, I stopped telling them and everyone else I did because I didn’t want to cause any chaos and concentrated on my work.

My work position was somewhat contracted for 3 months. I wasn’t aware of it or maybe I had been too excited about the job I missed that part when signing the contract. Not that it would have mattered anyway, because I still would’ve taken the job. So when it came to the end of my contract I was laid off. A lot of persons got laid off too because the company was sold out to another company and new changes took placed. So no contracts were renewed. I cried so hard when they told me that I was no longer apart of the company. I told them that they used me ( they said I was a top performer and was going to be a supervisor).

Anyway about 2 weeks later I had applied for another job in the same state and got it. I think this job hypnotized me and had me under some kind of foolish spell. Guess I was just naive or maybe it’s the genuine love that I had for this place that made me think so crazy. I didn’t ever want to go to college, I never I want to leave this work ( not a stable place, can get fired any time), yet I wanted to do it for the rest of my life, I didn’t do overtime, said I was okay with the salary received. I had no goals and because we were the first batch for this role, I was told of the many opportunities there would be.

So each month I ended as a top performer. I got so many awards and vouchers. I wasn’t someone who spent lavishly. I mostly bought snacks and juicy weekly for my daughter and 1-2 shoes and a suit of clothing for her fortnightly and then saved the rest of money for my travelling and food expenses. I guess I really wasn’t making a lot of cash then but to me I was and I was very satisfied.

Nothing I had planned about me and this job came through.

Seven months later and I’m writing a letter of resignation because my three months leave of absence letter, was not approved. I was relocating and it was going to take awhile for us to settle down. About three months later I applied for another job, this time in my state. I was so lucky to find one there. They’re normally scarce; unless you have a degree ect. I received a phone call three days later and was scheduled for an interview. They were so impressed with me and my experiences and wanted me to start the next week. I was super excited. I felt like I was still on the right path despite having to start over.

My excitement didn’t last long.

I started dread going to work.

 

It wasnt my job description, it wasn’t who I offered service to; I loved my job and I loved what I did. I adapt to changes easily… but it was the management; it was poor, it was the work environment.

I could easily slide by this. I’m easy going. But it became too constant, I felt manipulated, I felt bullied. I felt like I couldn’t breathe. I started getting low self-esteem. There were mornings when I would get up for work, getting dressed and my hair done and felt something was wrong with what I was wearing. Even though I had worn it before. And would try on all my working clothes; which I had already done the previous morning too, and re-do my hair; just wanting to get that look. I would spend hours doing this and It seems like I could never get it right. Eventually it became a habit and everyday I was late for work. How can I be late for a work that’s only 15-30 minutes drive, when I used to travel over 2 hours and I’ve never been late? I couldn’t answer and no matter what I tried I couldn’t help myself. One week I tell myself no more I’m going to get it right this time and I start going early and it makes me feel so good and then I feel like everything is crumbling and it throw me off again and I’m back to square one. It had actually gotten worst because there were days I took too long to get myself together and would call in ‘not well’. Of course I don’t use sick because I don’t want to be sick, I just felt, I was just not physically well.

Despite my tardiness I still tried to remain being a top performer, I was still recognized and there were a few who tried encouraging me to come to work early but I had already lost myself and couldnt get a grip.

After one year of doing this, they eventually fired me.

Three months later…

And today, I’ve now found myself.

When I Iook back I don’t regret being fired. It was for the best. Maybe I would’ve been in asylum by now. Maybe I still have traits of low self-esteem but not enough to hold me down. I now know how to overcome something like that if it ever happens again. I  have written a plan for my life. Even if it doesnt go that way, at least it’s a start because i’ve never done that before. I can get dressed quickly now and if I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror I now see myself to be a prettier version of me.

Everything that happened changed my life and now I want to go to college and get a professional degree in psychology because I know a lot of people out there share similar story and need someone who knows what it feels like to help them, to save and change their life.

And I want to at least be that person.

College funds

I am not a celebrity , i don’t have a book deal or a movie deal ,so i may not be of importance to you.

The value of education is something that I have understood since a very young age. Neither of my parents had an opportunity to attend college, and faced many struggles in their personal and professional lives because of this. They made a commitment early in my life to do everything within their power to instill in me a love of learning and an understanding of the importance of hard work and dedication.

Filling out my Master degrees programs applications, has forced me to face head on the realities that I’ve grown up in. Looking back and describing my life I see all the ways in which I am disadvantaged due to my socioeconomic status. But I think it’s important to note that I wasn’t fully aware of any of it growing up. I knew that my parents couldn’t buy me everything, but I also knew that they hardly ever said no. I was a very normal child, asking for chicken nuggets and looking at mom and dad any time I was scared or unsure of something. As I’ve grown I’ve learned to fight my own monsters but I now also battle the ones that frighten my parents, the monsters of a world that they weren’t born into. Monsters of doubt and disadvantage that try to keep them stuck in a cycle of not pursuing higher education.

After finishing high school, I applied for a few Scholarships to either study in China or Russia but that deem unsuccessful not because my Grades wasn’t right but because of the racial inequality that was and still is dominant in my country. I literally sit one night and cried because someone who I have known got through with a scholarship because of their links to Government and not because of their grades. With no work and scholarship I decided to applied to the Ministry of Education and was accepted into the teaching professional at the age of sixteen’s where I taught the elementary and primary level for six years before I venture onto Royal Caribbean cruise lines international ltd because I could not upkeep with rents and other expenses on a teaching salary in South America. At Royal Caribbean cruise lines where I am currently employ I was able to saves some money and help with financial situation back home and take myself to school online which I now hold 3 post Graduate diplomas from schools in the UK and a Higher National diploma from Cambridge university. I was recently accepted to all three post graduate diplomas to an MBA, MSc in Tourism and hospitality management and an MSc in human resources management. These programs will be completed in 1 year from their start date because I have completed most of the modules in the post graduate stage which allow me to just complete the Dissertation stage of each Master degree. Financially I am drained and cannot seem to come up the tuition fees for these programs which comes right around 20,000 USD dollars with my little saving for housing and etc. These programs supposed to start respectively in May,June and October of 2019 and I am still on-board trying to come up with that money for tuition’s fees.

Asides from my values, I’m truly passionate in the child care, Business, tourism and Human resources management field. I always wanted to WORK with the UN to better life of people and children, it just hurtful to see w people goes through in 3rd  world country like mind. My strong interest in the better quality of life for all field allowed me to open up my self in certain situations—being in the business of “making people’s day” often has the effect of making (and re-making) my own.  a career with the UN will always be my first choice. While I may have a strong love for the tourism and hospitality field, my interest in business immensely grew as I soon discovered that I didn’t only have to take the practical approach in this field. With this interest,  Success to me is having a career that I love and allows me to help PEOPLE . I hope to no longer experience hardships such as economic difficulties, as I had in my young life.

My family has made many sacrifices to allow me to focus on education throughout primary and secondary school. I now have an opportunity to become the first person in my family to attend college, though I’m in need of financial assistance to realize what has been a long-term goal for me and a dream for my parents. If given the financial assistant, I will continue to apply the same diligence to my collegiate studies as I have to this point, making education and service to others my top priority. I will represent your organization well during my few months in college and beyond. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Mummy’s Struggling Medical Student

Hello, my name is Sherraine. I am the eldest of 5 kids and so far 3 of us are currently in University. We all live in the caribbean and study away from home. I am in medical school, my sister is in nursing school and my other sister is in business school. My two younger siblings are in middle and high school. I’ve made it really far in my programme and I’m so glad as I am starting my final year in two weeks. As you can imagine, having 3 kids attending university at the same time is really difficult for my mum. I’ve tried my very best studying hard and getting some scholarships along the way but this time is seeming more difficult than before. In december of 2018 I was diagnosed with the lifestyle disease of hypertension (stress eating and stressing definitely isn’t a great health combination). In addition to that I’ve also had other minor (it really isn’t minor because I hate the inconveniences of it) health issues along the way. Regardless of this I push on and forward.

I feel so close to the end and I sometimes believe that I am. I see my mum trying her best to do all that she can. Before, she would tell me she would have trouble sleeping over the phone. Since being home for holiday, I, now for myself sometimes hear at night just, being around and truly not sleeping. I worry for her. And my worry for her makes me also not sleep at night recently. Soon I have to go back to school as I’m on a two week break before the turn of the new academic year. The exchange rate of home to my school’s country is a bit steep and I know that also makes it slightly worse for my mum when trying to find and acquire funds for me especially. I sometimes think its my fault but I hope that at the end I’ll be able to properly help her out and the rest of the kids.

So to cover some of the cost for a short while, this one time, I am beckoning on you to assist my family. The monies, if you so desire to send to me will be going towards rent for myself and my sisters for 3-4 months, airfare, school ( general fees) and medical supplies for my education (e.g. suturing sets, scrubs, ophthalmoscope and other medical equipment, textbooks/question banks, etc.) This will approximate to $3000US, but anything you send will be greatly appreciated in every regard. Healthwise I’m hoping I’ll make it by changing my lifestyle. I’ve already controlled the blood pressure thankful but your act of kindness will certainly assist with the stress on my mum and indirectly myself. Thank you so much in advance for your altruism and kindness.

Below is my paypal link, again anything you send will be greatly appreciated: paypal.me/Cunningham182

I Need Help

Hi, how do I put this in words, my parents have a very stable financial life (well 65% of the time), but not me, is more like I am poor with not poor parents, I have 19 years old and well, in my country is kind of effed up to find a job since we have 13+ millions of unemployed, and I’m in this statistic. If you want to add in that list I don’t have a college, and that’s lower more than what is low.

We’re actually don’t live, we kinda survive, a monthly salary converting to dollars is about 320 and with college you up that to 450, and I already decided to live in another country, the tax is the higher than everything else, our bills are only growing bigger and bigger and if my dad die like now I’m kind very much screwed in a level never achieved before.

Personally I don’t know much things to work, but at least I took some free online classes about photoshop, hand draw, the programming very starter pack that I have a diploma and that’s it.

I’m trying to use and freelancer site to do some things, but the last couple years I went totally anti-social so I deleted my facebook, twitter I still have but I don’t use it, Instagram is the same vibe of twitter and goes on and on, that job required to me well share my gigs and see if one of those people need my services, but… well, being anti-social for couple of years don’t help at all, just noticed that right before I found this site.

About my family, my mom is more a housewife, my father has a good job, not a pristine one that, his annual salary is about US$16220, buuuut the taxes does not take easy on him, I cannot stand in his place on this work because everybody there is selected personally, but I don’t want to rely on him forever, I want to do something to help, I don’t want to be a bag anymore, a stubborn, and don’t want him to kick start me, I wanted to do it by myself, and make him proud of me, but in this state I can’t.

To be honest, I know that there’s more needing people in this site needing assistance, and I’m not here asking money, all I’m asking is, well, is more a help, I know that 100% of chance that you have more followers than me on twitter or Instagram, or lots of friends on facebook, the help that I’m asking is more about I need someone requesting my services, I usually do draws and art on photoshop, logos, or pixelart, I can also teach photoshop, translate documents…well for Portuguese-english and vice and versa, and know a little about spanish. with the money i’ll invest in something to help at least pay some of the energy bills that i said, and maybe cut the expenses from my father entire amount of bills by getting out of the household and travel to a place that i can really rely on about salary.

If you want to help on that follow my twitter (if you don’t mind the kid part that was using in 2014-2016)
https://twitter.com/Riesenheim
and check my last tweet, with the link, i swear is not a scam

Trying to help my single mom

Hi there.

First of all I thank you for taking time to read on my campaing.

My name is Victor, I’m 21 years old, I live in Honduras right in the middle of Central America, a place kind of hard to live in. I was raised by my mom since my parents got divorced, he packed his things and totally forgot about my mom, my 2 brothers and I, pretty much  remember I was in 2nd grade when he left. My mom tried her best to give us all we needed, but the money she was able to bring home was not enough, that basically, pushed her to get credit cards and that brought us, as family, down financially. Honduras is a complicated place to live since, the salary is around Lps. 8,000.00 which is most likely $320 dollars monthly. We were able to manage a way of surviving accumulating all this financial background of around $70,000.00 in debts.

When I turned 18 I was able to search for a job and tried to help mom pay the bills, however it was too late and the bank took our home. We lost our house and now we are renting. Landlords have taken us out for lack of payment and we are about to be taken out of the place where we now live. I had a job that paid me $150 monthly, but almost a year ago I was fired and still have no success in finding a new place to work at.

It has come more difficult to live in this situations and still my younger brother is in high school. I know we are going to have more debts on the way and I just can not stand looking how my mom tries to bring food to our table and all our needs and things are just getting worst each time.

All I am to do, is help my mom to pay her debts. I know that I can count on you if you had read this far… to help my family get out of this situation.

I know there is other people out there having more problems than I do, but, I promise that I will help back others when I have the opportunity to do so. Thanks for reading my story and getting into my shoes.

Sincerely,

Victor M.

Severe depression leading to health issues

Hello, everyone

My name is Laura, and I’m a Venezuelan living in Mexico City. Ever since I left Venezuela in 2005, I’ve suffered from a severe, debilitating depression that has not allowed me to keep a regular job and be independent. I’m 32 years old.  I make ends meet by working freelance doing transcriptions and translations, but this does not allow me to save, pay for medical insurance, or even a full rent.

For the past three years, I’ve been adrift, trying to find a purpose in life beyond taking care of my beloved dog, who is quite often the only reason I get out of bed at all. Thoughts of suicide constantly plague me, and I’ve done research more times that I care to admit on “painless” methods. However, I find myself unable to do this in a way that affects no one.

My depression was so severe, at one point I could not even take a shower for two weeks because the anxiety was just killing me. This led to me grinding my tongue against my teeth whenever I was anxious, to the point where I’ve eroded my gum nearly to the bone, and I have no way to pay for a dentist. I’m in physical pain because of this every single day.

Six months ago, in August, I had to have an emergency appendectomy, which I’m convinced was somehow caused by my stress and anxiety, since no one in my family has ever had to have their appendix removed like me.

I was going to a psychiatrist, and taking up to five pills a day to help with my various symptoms, such as constant nightmares, hot flashes, crying spells, and sudden bursts of aggressiveness. This did not help me at all, as the several pill cocktails we tried only made me feel worse, and it was just too expensive for me to afford.

I’ve been sleeping on the floor in a mattress I was able to buy on my own (proud moment for me,) in someone’s house, and this has also caused back problems.

Since I’m a foreigner, and I work freelance, I have no right to medical insurance unless through private means, and I cannot afford this. I’m asking for help to pay for medical insurance and dental treatment, although I need it for everything, if I’m being honest. Anything will help. 40144035_10160743247545414_2665601581734428672_n.jpgthumbnail_image2.jpg

I lived with a mental disorder without knowing it and it ruined my life, I need help to get it back together, for my and my family

I have been trying to write this for days now. Trying to understand the reason behind it, behind my lack of will power to do it, I understood one thing: I am scared. I am scared because doors are closing and doing this, asking for help on the Internet, may be my last real chance to escape this nightmare I am living right now. If it fails, I don’t know what I will do. So, what is this nightmare? You may ask. It all begins about 6 years ago, when I was 19, young, younger I mean. A lot more immature, ignorant and yet, as full of hopes and dreams as I am right now.

When I graduated from high-school I rented, with the help some very incredible people, an apartment to live with my girlfriend. I don’t want to make things too complicated to be understood here, so I will simply say three things: first, we do not have children, we did not move because of that. Second, we both moved out from home because we wanted to live together, yes, but also because we wanted to live closer to college and give everything we had to school. Third, we both had jobs back then and the idea, of course, was to keep them and earn money to have a better life with each passing year. We had plans to buy a car, furniture, to buy many, many books and a bookcase for them and more.

Before I continue with the story, I may have to tell you two things (apparently, I like to do lists): first, don’t imagine this in the United States or any other first world country. I live in a third world country; many things are different. For instance, medical services are not the best, salaries are a lot smaller and education is not as good as in other places. Second, I was never the type of guy who did his homework or who studied a lot, but I was the guy who got the best grades in the classroom. School never was a problem, until I started going to college.

First year in my new life I lost my job, started having these bad, very bad discussions with my girlfriend and college went to hell. I did nothing. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t drop out of school, I did not start drinking or using drugs, I have never done that, I love school, it was my dream to go the university I was in and I was living it, I was living my dream, I had an apartment with the love of my life, was studying the career of my dreams in the university of my dreams and all I had to do was to keep a mid-time job, keep my place clean and functional, save some money and study hard. Everything else would flow, I had everything, had…

I always told to myself that when the time came, I would do the right thing. When the time came, I would work hard. When the time came, I would study, read, do my homework. When the time came, I would be an organized person, a responsible, clean, focused human being. Far from it, I almost did the opposite. And why did I have to tell myself this instead of always being like it? Well, I will get into that.

For years I did nothing to stop my life from going to hell. My girlfriend took almost full economical responsibility for our place as, even though I kept getting new jobs, I also kept being fired or I would quit within months. I tried every year to study, to read, to do my homework. I love what chose to study! But I never did anything to prove it. I kept studying by myself, though, in my own terms, reading about what interested me, developing skills, meeting people, but nothing that could be compared to what I wanted of my life. I started two businesses and for a while they worked, and I was happy, for a while, but they didn’t last much against the economic crisis in my country. I learned a lot from my experiences. I found comfort in philosophy, I started working on my character, on my persona, practicing virtue, strength, I looked for wisdom and while I am not a wise man, I have learned a lot from those who are. It wasn’t enough and I didn’t know why. I was desperate. My girlfriend was desperate. My family and friends… worried. For about 5 years, this kept going. My relationship broke down and I don’t know how I am still with her, I guess she does love me a lot, because the parasite I had become was not worth her time. My academic career is far from over and my pockets are empty.

How do you make sense of all this? A year ago, I used to think that I simply was a jerk, a failure, a joke of human being, an idiot, a slacker, a selfish brute, a bad person, to the core. I hated myself. That’s how I made sense of it. Then, something happened. Something actually really bad but that threw light into my situation.

My life is not the only life that is hard. My parents, while I was gone, dealt with their own nightmares, one of which turned into reality. Long story short, my grandparents owned a house where they lived a part of their lives. When my grandmother died, my grandfather moved out of this house and gave it to his sons. My father, whom around the time had just gotten married with my mother, asked his brothers and sister to sell him their parts of the house and they did, and we went to live there. This is the house of my whole childhood we are talking about. But after receiving the money his sister, my aunt, decided to keep the scriptures of the house, which for some reason she had. She then mortgaged the house and lost it to the bank. For years and years and years my father had a legal fight with the bank in which he lost huge amounts of money demanding or trying to buy the house again, until the bank, in a totally illegal move, sold the house to another man.

This man took legal action against my family and after a long and costly fight, he did something horrible. He, unlike my family, is a wealthy man and he used this to his advantage. He bribed people all around to give himself time to hire some thugs and kick my sister, my mother and my aunt (from the side of my mother) from the house, by force, without warning. They broke in, took everything, literally everything and they threw it to the street. It was humiliating and brutal. They were in their pajamas. My mother later told me that he even took a camera with him and recorded everything while laughing at my sister’s and mom’s cries for mercy. They only wanted a few days to move out with dignity. My father was not at home that time. According to this man, it was a legal eviction but when we went over it and investigated, we understood that it was not legal at all and the silence of the authorities involved could have only been explained if he had bribed them, something that is not uncommon in my country.

It was incredibly painful to me to go to my childhood home and see every single thing thrown into the street, broken, dirty. My sister got her computer, with all her work from college, stolen. Charges were never made because my father decided he didn’t want to fight anymore, specially not against someone so dangerous. So, they moved on and things have not been good to them either. Up until now, they still don’t have a place for themselves, they have lived with my grandparents for most of it (mother’s side). My father works all day but it’s never enough, my sister had to leave college for a while to help the family. I would help them, but I have my own family of two (my girlfriend of now 7 years and an old cat I rescued from the street) to protect and I’m not even doing it right. There’s a lot more to this story but for now I will leave it here. Why did I tell it, then? Well…

Among the things that were thrown into the street that day and we spent the whole day recovering, I found a box full of papers who told my story. Drawings, photos, old exams, grades and things like that. The kind of stuff that a mother keeps. I got to keep them because at the moment they didn’t even know where they would sleep, so I rescued what I could. The box containing the papers stood in my apartment for a few weeks but one night I decided to go through it with my girlfriend. While remembering things, laughing and crying a bit as well, breaking some old painful papers and treasuring others, I found something crucial.

Back when I was 13 years old, I was heavily bullied by another kid at school. This ignited in me a depressive episode which had to be treated with therapy. I lost the year because the thought of going to school became unbearable and had to start over. (That’s also another story for another time). The paper I found was the psychologist diagnosis made all those years ago. I was expecting nothing more than I just told you: depression. But there was something else there. Something strange, something I didn’t know anything about: ADHD.

My first reaction was denial, I threw the paper back to the box and forgot about it. But a few days later my girlfriend, incredible woman, got close to me and told me she had done some research. She started explaining to me what ADHD meant, what was, and it… it all started to make sense. So, I did my own research. Before I continue, I would like you to watch two videos so that we are on the same page. Meet another incredible woman, Jessica McCabe:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiwZQNYlGQI

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx13a2-unjE

I was not stupid. I was not lazy. I was not… bad. I started reconstructing my life, my school years, my failings at work and college, my failed (on my side) relationship. When I started reading about people with ADHD, it was like reading a book about myself. How my brain works, how my thoughts work, how my life works, what many of my weaknesses are, the struggles I face. It was shocking and, although it’s not always nice to know you have a condition, that you are not “healthy”, it was a blessing. Because now I knew what was wrong with me. Now I knew why no matter how hard I tried, not matter how much I cared, no matter how much I suffered, no matter how much I wanted to do the things I knew I had to do to be happy and make the woman I love happy and myself, I couldn’t do them.

Here I would like to make another pause to talk about the incredible woman I live with, because if I’m doing this right now, it’s not only to try to save myself but also her. First of all, let me tell you something: living with someone with ADHD is not easy. Not at all, we are terrible at things most people consider “normal” or “easy”. We can constantly forget things, even the important ones, we sometimes cannot focus on things that matter at will (like working), we can appear selfish because we don’t pay attention to you when you need it, we can be very disorganized, and more…  Jessica can help you understand this more deeply, if you want to take more than my word about it:

But, living with someone with ADHD while also having bipolar disorder, is even worse. And living with someone with ADHD who doesn’t know that he has ADHD and having to bring 80% or 90% of the income of a house while also studding college and also having bipolar disorder, may be hell. My girlfriend, the woman I love, has bipolar disorder. I knew this even before we moved in together. I was supposed to be the one who would take care of her, who would understand her and help her heal and build her way up in life. But I never could do that, I was the worst and I didn’t know why at the time, but I failed her over and over and over again and only made our way deep into the pit. She also has struggles, huge ones, and I managed to break her more than once in tears, screams and more. She has suffered at least as much as I have and yet she has managed to become a great human being. She also had troubles following up in her studies, yes, she has been very depressed, yes… but she has never given up and I admire her, and I don’t think I deserve her. Her story is not mine to tell, my friends, but trust me on this (here comes another list): first, she is an amazing woman and she deserves to be happy. Second, she struggles, a lot. Third, I made her struggle way more than she needed to, and I’m in debt with her because of that. For those of you who don’t know what bipolar disorder is or want to know more about it, here are, again, a few videos:

Living with someone who has a mental disorder, I was no stranger to what I had to do, now that I knew I had one too. First of all, I asked my parents what was going on. Why did they not tell me about this? I was angry, very angry. I think I still am in a way. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder, which means I was born with it, it didn’t appear out of nowhere and it is usually diagnosed at a very young age. In my case, I was diagnosed at the age of 6, but my parents decided not to medicate me, fearing it would cause more troubles than it would fix, and they decided to ignore the diagnose. The reasons? Well, I am an inattentive type of ADHD, meaning I don’t have the hyperactivity. Back then, this difference was not very clear and specially not in my country and in the minds of my parents, so they figured that since I was not the “typical” ADHD kid jumping around the classroom, screaming, being impulsive and things like that, I didn’t have ADHD. Oh, I did have it and it affected my every day, but they didn’t know how it did. Instead, they were the first to call me lazy or imprudent when symptoms got me into troubles.

So now that I knew that I had an actual diagnose from when I was 6 and a second one from when I was 13 and I knew why I didn’t know about them, I found a psychiatrist. I was, for the third time, diagnosed with ADHD and, for the second time, with clinical depression. I was prescribed some pills and after a lot of more research and thinking, I took my first pill, less than a month ago from writing this. I don’t even have a month taking them but… the differences between the me without the pills and without the knowledge about my ADHD and the me with them are huge. I would like you to, please, watch one last round of videos, so that you may understand how I feel, how much it really has helped me out to take these pills. If you think it has been a lot of videos and you are starting to feel like this is too much, please, just watch the first one. Oh, and by the way… no, I do not know Jessica and I am not trying to get her views on YouTube. She has helped me a lot, yes, and I many others and I think she is good at explaining things, better than I am. Just that.

The first day I took my first pill, I was able to sit down and write at will for the first time in… years, maybe. The second, I was able to read. The third, I was able to finish around 5 projects I had left behind for months. For weeks I have been feeling strong, full of energy, focused, capable. I can now control my actions and all the philosophy I read and the tools I gathered about ADHD has done wonders to my life in the space of two to three weeks. I am not “cured” of ADHD, that is not possible. I still have a terrible memory, I am still very disorganized, I still struggle with a lot of things, but I’m starting to take control over my life.

(I post this image because the page recommended that I uploaded at least one image related to the request, but I wasn’t sure what it could be. I will be more than happy to provide proof that my needs are real, as long as it does not put myself or my family at risk).

So, why am I here? If this is a “success story”, why am I writing this? Well, because it’s not a success story, it’s a tragedy story or it will become one. Past, wise man say, is in the past… yes, I can’t change the past. But sometimes the past catches on you, tells you that your mistakes have consequences. Sometimes the past affects the present and the future. And my past is full if mistakes and troubles and they are about to run me over. What’s going on?

Well, about 5 years without having a stable job has its consequences. I have had to ask for money to the bank about 4 times in these years and It was very difficult to pay it. I actually have a debt that I am not planning to cover with the money I am asking you for right now because it would be a much higher amount and because I believe it to be under control. I need the money urgently because of something else, because right now my pockets are empty, because we live by the day and…

Last December, to be specific, the very 25 of December I received a message from my landlord. He is changing the way he uses the building we live in, he is going to turn it into offices, and we need to move out. In January I couldn’t find a way to make the money I need to move out, I have until the end of February. Between my debts, health issues my girlfriend has, my own medical condition and the expenses a change of place require, I’m desperate. My family can’t help, her family can’t help, I have no friends to ask for help and because of my debts, I can’t ask the bank for money again. This country is slowly falling apart and not many have enough money to look after themselves and help someone too. This is the same reason my businesses fell apart.

I also need the money because even though my girlfriend has been a saint with me, she has had enough. She told me, and she is right, that she needs to live with someone who can provide to her as much as she provides herself, not someone she has to carry around. She is leaving me unless there’s a radical change in our lives. Last month I found a job, but due to paperwork and the change of place, I won’t be able to start until next month. I swear this time it will be different, that I will be able to stay fresh, focused and committed to it. I have the tools now, and I have medical help.

So, what will I use the money for?

1. I will pay everything related to my change of place. The new rent, which will be at least 50% higher than the last. We were very lucky to find our current place at its current price, but pricing is usually higher than what we currently pay. The repairs my old and new apartment need, the moving itself and whatever comes in the way related to the matter.

2. I will pay medical bills. Both my girlfriend and I need professional help from a psychologist and a psychiatrist to tackle our respective mental disorders. Fortunately, professional help is not as expensive here. Also, my girlfriend has some other medical conditions that need treament.

3. I will take our cat to the veterinary. She is 12 years old and she has been getting thin lately, I’m worried. We are worried.

4. I don’t think that this will be the case but If I happen to have money left from you guys after I do these three things, I promise I will use it to help other people in a meaningful way. And that even if there is no more of this money, I will help other people whenever I can.

The last years of my life have been a disaster and ever since I found out about my ADHD and started taking my medication and working with it, I feel like a new man. I feel strong, I feel joyful, depression is gone, my dreams are returning, my hopes are high, and my will is strong. I want to retake school and don’t leave until I finish, I want to build a nice place to live in, I want to put my creativity in action and write novels or retake my businesses, I want to use the knowledge I have acquired in this adventure to help other people, I want to learn more, be more! I want to make the woman that has kept me alive all these years, happy, return her the favor. I want, I need a fresh start, we need a second chance… and all we need to do it is some money.

Without the money, what will probably happen is that my girlfriend will return to live with her parents, and I will never see her again and she will not be able to fulfill her dreams the way she should and deserves. Her parents live far away from the university, they don’t understand her bipolar disorder and will push her in ways that will not be healthy. Don’t get me wrong, tough, her parents are great people, but their circumstances are not the best for her.

I, on the other hand, will have to go live with my grandparents and the rest of my family. School will no longer be an option to me, and I will probably hate myself for the rest of my life for having failed the woman I love and took care of me for so many years and… I will have failed myself, all because of certain circumstances, because I didn’t know I had a mental disorder. My entire life be will fall apart, everything I know and value and want it to be, will be gone. My dreams crushed once more. I don’t have the strength and I don’t think it is fair for her either. I need your help, people from the Internet, I desperately need it because there is no way I can make as much money in the time I have left, trust me, I have tried. I don’t have the tools to do that yet. I’m not asking for much, I hope.

If you read everything, even if you don’t want to or can’t help me, you have my thanks anyway, for taking your time to listen to me. If, on the contrary, you are going to help me, I have no words to explain how grateful I will be, you will be savaging my present and my future. I sincerely wish you the best, to you all.

Loosing everything in my life

Hello im Carlos, recently we have being having a lot of money problems with my family due to a bad investing in a family member’s company, everything started little by little helping them with little needs that turned into lending them big amounts of money: almost at the same time everything started, we sold our house and decided to move to improve our life, but at the end little by little ended lending or “investing” this company all the money, to the point right now we are even in a huge debt with different banks that loaned us money to keep the day by day hoping this company start to recover our money invested, we became an associate of the company due to the investments, but everything is going to hell, the company is not producing, and all the money became a waste, the rent of the place to have the company, the apartment we are renting we can’t even pay it,  and the day by day is becoming harder and harder, we can forsee a bad day coming where we can’t do anything about it because of everything coming and falling over us.

As you can imagine, all the dreams of improving our life just broke, and the daily life became a hell thinking in all the problems and working so hard in a company that is not working and is the meaning of you fall, the reason of why you lost everything trying to help (which is not the problem, we helped with our hearts and best intentions) we hear the tic toc every day of things getting worse everytime just hoping, working hard, and waiting that everything will be ok, don’t think we have been doing nothing just waiting, it has been a lot of effort trying to make things run and work but they just don’t, we will keep trying but we need the help of the good people that have the chance to help other humans do a little better day by day, we trust in the good heart and that the good we have done, will return to us, and at the same time we will keep trying.

I really would appreciate your help, as soon as we can get better I will help as much as I can in this magnificent website, thank you for your attention and help, a big hug to all of you, stay strong, enjoy your life!

Single Dad, Dear friends, a little help will go a long way at this moment.

Single Dad.

Reading through some of the stories on the site i cant help but feel discouraged in posting this as i am young and in good health, i shouldnt be in this situation and im not sure how i allowed it to happen.

I find myself today an orphan, no family but my 8 year old son.

my father passed away last year and left everything to his second wife.

which was fine with me , i did not expect anything but the house i lived in with my son, which was my fathers first home in Mexico when he arrived here from Germany in 1990. But in the end she got that too and now im left homeless. it was more than a home, it was an integral part of my income system.

I had many plans for my life, none included becoming a single father at age 19, working full time has always been hard since ive never had any help with my son after school, and i did not finish college.

Spending time with my son and helping him overcome his academic difficulties has always been more important to me than anything else, my child needs a lot of help.

still i managed, i managed to create a system that worked for us.

using our home as a venue i became an English tutor and with our garage turned into a small woodworking shop, money was coming steady enough to make a living and still be there for my son, i thought i had it all figured out.

now thats all gone, the day i got home just to find all locks had been changed was the worst smack in the face ive ever had.. scratch that, explaining it to my son was even worse.

with the little money i had saved, i found us a small apartment but i lost my means to generate income, i am looking for a job but its very hard here in Mexico, and its about to get worse.

I would like to rent a new place to start working again, i just dont have the money right now to start over, ill need at least a full month of rent + deposit.

Friends, i have $0 cash available, ive already sold a couple of my woodworking tools just to get by, i am looking for work elsewhere but its really hard, with no employment history, no formal education and no one to help me with my son.

i am a hard worker, i truly am, i just need a break

so if you can find it in your hearts, please, anything will help

$1,500 usd will set me and my kid up for a comeback!, please help us.

Help to start a small food business

My name is Alejandro Torres and I’m 26 years old, I’m embarrassed by doing this but there shouldn’t be shame in asking for help, I used to work as a Cook to pay my university studies (In Gastronomy) I’ve never been good a studies but then I got hooked at cooking and really feel in love with Asian Cuisine (Mostly Japanese and Chinese), Since I was little I’ve had poor health, not deathly nor critical… just poor health. Before I was 16 yrs. old I’ve had been hospitalized 6 times for different surgeries, 1 time due a Peptic Ulcer caused by gastritis at 8yrs, 3 times due to different eye problems between 10-12yrs old and 2 times due Hyperthyroidism when I was 15. The later one made me finally go into a Serious surgery (thyroidectomy) 2 years ago, which costed my family a lot of money. The after effects of the surgery made gain a lot of weight what made unable to keep working as a Cook, and had to get a low paying office job, somehow I managed to help my Mom with the bills, but recently he had to move from my childhood home because of my older brother’s drug problems, he has always been a bad mouthed good for nothing but since my mom let him do as he wishes he never had to change, a couple of years ago my mom had a Nervous Breakdown and we threw him out of the house, but eventually she let him back (since then I asked her not to tell me about the problems he caused because this made me angry), and he calmed for a bit but almost immediately became the lazy bad mouth idiot he’s always been, until we got into a fight and me and my mom decided to move out with my father (which also has drug problems), it’s been almost bearable the problem is that my father’s house falling apart due to him not caring at all since he was living alone, and since we got there my mother had to invest a lot of money to make it a home and she’s also giving my brother money almost every day, I want to help my mom with the bills but I’ve been paying my student loans with my office job but as I used to make a lot more as a Cook I can’t really help a lot.

I just wanna help with my mom’s burden since I am all the family she’s got and I want to never let her down, the money I ask is so I can start a small food business or a shop so I can support her, I will my forever thankful for the help.

My mother has colon cancer

The same year my father died was the same year my mother was diagnosed with colon cancer. The year 2013 was the year she was diagnosed, she used to work in a small decomposable plastic bag factory in Kingston, Jamaica. Her boss was a heavy smoker, she smoked around her employees even when they wanted her to quit because the second hand smoking is dangerous, she didn’t listen which caused both my mother & another of her colleagues to get colon cancer.
They both wanted to sue but both of them put together didn’t have that type of money to hire a lawyer so they both had to let it go. The two of them quit their jobs & still no help from the boss. It was rough for my mother especially because she is old, at that time she was 53 years of age.
After some time, mommy had to start wearing colostomy bags & it has been stressful because the bags themselves are very expensive out here & sometimes we don’t know where the money is coming from or who we can ask for a donation to get some for us.
A date has been set up for the surgery for the bag to be taken off but the due date is nearing & we don’t have the full amount of money to pay for the surgery. Heath care is not free here, it is very expensive. My mother even had to ask for help from her family which she hadn’t talked to for literal years to help her to purchase a skin stapler due to the hospital not having it, that’s a lot of money because it is not sold in our country, she had to get it overseas.
It has been a rough few years of being a single mother of her age, I’m the youngest of 5. I’ve just turned 18 in September & I want to try & help because my mother is my only parent left, I love her & I don’t want to lose her just yet, I know everyone has their time but I don’t believe it should be this soon for my mother, every night I pray that she will live to see my children, her grand children graduate college. My other siblings are helping of course but I want to help too & that is why I’m here, the cost of the surgery is US100,00 dollars. We already have half & we need to other half before the 5th of December next month, I know I’m late but I’ve been searching for a sire like this for awhile now & I’ve finally found it & I would love the help. Thank you in advance for your help

A better chance in life

I am currently in Mexico, and I can’t get a job here. I am living with my partner and we are struggling with money. She has job but its barely enough. Every month we struggle with food, it has come to the point where I have fainted because we didn’t have food. We are saving whatever we can so we can go to Portugal, for a better chance in life. There both of us can work and hopefully we won’t suffer trying to make it through the day with an almost empty stomach.
I have tried everything I could online, but pretty everything is a scam and the surveys take forever to get at least 5 dollars and that’s isn’t enough. I everyday try to find a way in which someone can work from home, however for those legit jobs I don’t have the qualifications. Only thing I could do until now is start a YouTube channel, but that most likely won’t work until next year. My partner applied to other jobs where she could get a bit more money but they never reply for some reason. We try very hard everyday to get something but it’s in this day and age where many have a lot and others have nothing.
My partner and I are just looking for a better chance at live so we don’t have to get separated or keep fainted due to not having enough to eat. This is our last resort, to ask someone who would be kind enough to donate at least 10 dollars. Because that really would help us. We could save it up and hopefully be able to have a roof to stay under when we arrive in Portugal.
So please, we just want enough to eat everyday and be together, and going to Portugal is where we can start. So, if anyone can please help us it would be amazing. We would wake up under a roof and have something to eat, we wouldn’t have health problems and worry that we the next morning there won’t a breakfast or lunch or dinner. I know it can be a lot to ask but please, like I said a small donation could help us a lot to like i said, get a better chance in life, to start over together and then hopefully in the future be able to help others that are in the same situation as us.
Thank you for your time. You can send the donations to paypal.me/jaydebarros

Save my family from dictatorship

Hi, I’m Gabriel and I’m 21 years old, I study, I have two jobs and I live in Venezuela. Maybe you know about the situation in my country, but the truth is that every day it gets worse and living under a dictatorship where even the expression is a crime, it’s a terrible thing, to live in a place where even more and more work every time There is less food on the table and where my opportunities to help my family are increasingly reduced. Not to mention the nonexistent opportunities of emergence that Venezuelans are experiencing. My only chance to emerge as a young man within the confines of my country is to become a corrupt person, but I would never do anything like that because I have principles and I believe in God.

In my family we are 7 people and every day it is difficult to move forward. But, like many Venezuelans, I decided that the best way to help and help them is to leave the country to do what I can in another country where my efforts are well paid and to be able to help my parents, grandparents and brothers from the outside. But I found two problems to get out of Venezuela, and are that my passport will expire in just a month and a half, 11/14/2018 and here in Venezuela it is virtually impossible to get a new one and the other problem is in the money. Here in Venezuela every dollar is a large sum of money which is not easy to get, even having two jobs it is impossible for me to save because of the responsibility of contributing with food for my family.

It’s because of everything I mentioned earlier that I need help. Help to get the money I need to leave the country soon. I’m against the clock because of my passport. I just need the money to get out of here and have the opportunity to help the people I love, my family.

I calculated the price of the money I would need to get out, and with only $ 300 it would be enough to achieve it and each small contribution would help me reach my goal. I just need an opportunity to come up and have that money in a month. Thanks for everything

Everything falling apart

Hello

I never thought I would end up in a situation where I would have to ask for charity but I see no other choice, I am 37 y/o and have  Bipolar disorder,  I´ve been out of work for three months now,  I couldn’t afford healthcare anymore so I run out of medicine  and recently I had to go through emergency cause I   had a manic crisis from which I´m still recovering.  I have a beautiful daughter with my ex GF, she´s two 1/2 years old, we separated last November  after almost 3 years of tolerating abuse , she is very manipulative, psychologically violent  and I would dare to say a liar in a  sociopathic level, I  had to break up with her because she hit me during a fight, and now that I´ve been struggling to recover from the breakup, months of depression and recent mental breakdown,  she has taken advantage of my economical and health situation by lying and trying to burry me legally accusing me of being violent person, which is totally false, she took my daughter  to another city without my permission, I haven´t seen her in almost a month, and  got some very nasty documents from court.  I recently spoke to her and she tried to blackmail me asking me for money. On the other hand  I am just about to get evicted cause I cannot pay for my rent anymore, I´ve been trying to sell my art online, look for customers, sell stuff I have but I´ve had no luck and I can´t afford any legal services to solve the situation,  nor time. I really don´t want to feel like I´m a victim of this situation but I don´t really see any hope any close,  some money could  really be of help right now.

We can’t leave our dog here… Just can’t

Hi everybody. We are Yaiza and Angelo a fortunate couple of newly married Venezuelans, in February we had the extraordinary fortune to meetTiramisú 🐕.

tiramisu-pequeno.jpg

He is an adorable puppy that we found abandoned in a box in the middle of the street, and we sincerely tell you he stole our hearts ❤ from the moment we got him out of there.

The political situation in our unfortunate country is extremely complex, every day hundreds of Venezuelans have to emigrate looking for a better future and potential opportunities.

Know what is the Bolivarian Dispora here!

We never thought it would be up to us to do so, but unfortunately the last couple of chaotic months ours personal income can’t kept up with the impressive hyper-inflation that suffers Venezuela.

It is increasingly difficult to do the grocery shopping for home, and not to mention that Tiramisu’s food is more expensive than ours because he is allergic to colorants and specific proteins.

32738503_10157360289263448_154652228911628288_o.jpg

Angelo’s paternal relatives abroad offered us the unique opportunity to hospitably receive us in Italy, specifically Sicily.

However, is not easy to emigrate without some money saved, so we are selling all our personal belongings to be able to it.

The thing is the process and the necessary paperwork needed for Tiramisu can go with us are considerably expensive, so we are trying even the impossible to achieve it.

Ours few relatives left in Venezuela are also leaving the country. However, we have no one how might properly take care of Tiramisú a couple of months.

We can’t live with the terrible idea of leaving him in a strange place where they wouldn’t know the appropriate precautions that has to be taken about his diet.

DSC_0049.JPG

Tiramisú is our family, so we can’t even think of abandoning him. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

Moving a dog from one country to another is considerably difficult. This is the list of indispensable requisites demanded by the European Union so that Tiramisu can travel with us:
  1. Rabies Serology : 330$
  2. Microchip: 20$
  3. Certificates: 20$
  4. Kennel: 220$
Approximately we need about 590$ to perform all these procedures.
We know it’s a lot of money, but as we said he is family and we will do everything is in our hands to take him with us.

IMG_4757.JPG

We want to thank you for helping us, either with a donation or sharing this website. Sincerely we really appreciate the help that will be offered.

Need help to feed my kitten

https://paypal.me/LanguagesWithSara

Webp.net-compress-image (1).jpgHello!

We are Sara and Saulo and we are a couple of backpackers from Brazil. We are both eager to discover new cultures and traditions so we set out to explore South America by hitchhiking. It was and still continues to be a wonderful experience. We met many new people, experimented new foods and visited numerous places. We were wowed by some people’s unheard of kindness and did our best to help those who had less than us. This adventure has had its downs as well, but these have been greatly outweighed by things that make us happy.

It doesn’t matter if there are some evenings when we can’t get a full meal to eat and have to satisfy our hunger with granola bars and wild fruits. What matters is that we are discovering new places every day and have each other and our darling kitten. The kitten, which we’ve named Fuminha, was a very unexpected addition to our ‘travel family’, but she was, by far, one of the best things that has ever happened to me.

The truck driver we were with that day made a short stop at a weighing station and we went to look around. We saw a farm entrance where there was an elderly woman selling mountain honey. We decided to buy a small container as a little souvenir. As we were about to leave, she offered us one of the tiny kittens that was running around nearby. I accepted without thinking twice.

It only later occurred to me that we were traveling, 1000s of kilometers from home and on a tight budget. However, I didn’t let any of this ruin my happiness. I have always dreamed of having my own kitten and now the dream had come true! This grayish ball of fluff was even of the exact colour combination that I was wanting. There was no way that I was going to let her go.

The first few weeks were alright, although harder. Being a curious little cat, Fuminha was always eager to explore and didn’t want to stay in my lap while waiting for a ride. It also seemed that she only understood Argentinian Spanish at times. But that wasn’t much of a problem. Fuminha soon got used to us and to the traveling lifestyle in general.

What we didn’t consider, however, were the costs involved in having a cat. We gave her meat and dairy product leftovers for the first bit, but after a while she began throwing up. We went to see a local vet and he told us that we need to buy cat food for her and only give a little at a time. Ok, that was a cost we really didn’t expect. We are doing all we can for our cute little family member, but money is running out. And we are still far from home. We still have a few places on our bucket list for this trip, but even if we head straight home, it will still take a while.

If you would like to help us with a donation of any amount, we would greatly appreciate it. Fuminha will receive a healthy amount of kitten food each day and we may be able to eat hot meals more than just once in a few days. Many places in South America are very poor, so if we receive more than we need, we will be sure to help someone in need. We come across homeless and struggling people on a daily basis and it breaks our heart to only be able to support them with words since we barely have enough money for ourselves.

Thank you for reading and we will greatly appreciate anything that you would be willing to donate to us. We will do our part by helping others in need when we are in a better situation.

Emergency help to aid myself & my family

Hi! I am ashamed of saying that I need help. Let me tell you a little about myself and my family first. I’m a 23-year-old Dutch female born and raised in Curacao, a very small island country right above Venezuela, in between Aruba and Bonaire. It’s a very vibrant country with a huge tourism economy from all over the world. I was raised in a very humble family, my parents worked hard every day but they didn’t have a higher education so there was only so much they can do. My mother worked in a Supermarket and my father worked for a shipping company. I was raised alongside my older brother and my older sister who currently lives with us (I am the youngest of all my siblings). We all got along and to be honest, I was my parents favorite because I was a very sweet kid and very attached to my parents. So, my siblings would always use me to butter up my parents if they wanted to go out or do something fun because my parents were always so sweet to me but very strict with my older siblings (a great perk for being the youngest hahaha). To be honest, my father spoiled us all equally, my mom was the more strict of our parents. It was very funny, to this day I still miss those good old days.

Eventually, my mother was let go from her Supermarket job due to internal problems and she couldn’t find a new job for a while so we relied on my father mostly. My mother got sick from breast cancer but survived and she managed to start her own canteen business and made a good living out of it. My father kept working at his shipping company (Gomez) full-time but he started showing ill signs, eventually, we found out he had a malignant tumor in his head (Stage 4 GMB) and it affected his mental and physical state greatly. He changed a lot, it wasn’t the father I knew all my life, it was hard to watch and as a child, I did not understand why he was like that. I wish I did so I would have been more patient, one regret I live with to this day. He was forced to work part-time and make less and eventually he was let go because he couldn’t work anymore. We relied on my mother financially from there on. Sadly on the 2nd of December of 2010, my father died, which was on the same day as my 16thbirthday. It destroyed me and our family suffered greatly. Things kept getting worse from there, the building my mom owned the canteen in got a new director and he made a new rule that my mother could not cook on the premise anymore because he did not want the smell of cooking in his offices which, to be honest sounds like a company/building problem but that’s just my opinion. As a cook, it is too difficult to cook EVERYTHING at home and to bring it to work, it’s unhealthy and inefficient because customer needs change and if you cannot provide what they want or at a proper heat you lose business. The company did not bother to help her keep her job either. It did affect my mother’s business and she eventually gave up the canteen.

Due to everything related to my parents but mostly my father, I started struggling in school to the point where I had quit going. I started working instead but when you grow up you realize how much of a mistake it is to quit school. You have nothing, you’re depressed and you’re helpless, especially when you lose the only job you have and rely on to help your family. I was too distracted and I couldn’t do what I needed to do to stay in school. I started working and got different jobs, I had some long term and short term ones and it helped my family a lot but nothing lasts forever and that’s why I’m here now.

I have a boyfriend named Daniel who is studying game development at Staffordshire University in the United Kingdom. I hope to visit U.K. one day to work and/or live there with him as he tells me how absolutely great it is. He made me a PayPal account to receive money because my country (Curacao) cannot receive payments through PayPal due to region restrictions.

The reason I’m here is that I need desperate help to aid my family and myself, either financially, advice or just getting a job (preferably). Just a little bit helps. I want to be able to support myself and my loved ones. My mother is 63 years old at the moment of writing this letter and I never want to see her work again. She worked all her life for me and I screwed it up because I couldn’t be strong enough. I want to be able to repay her back finally but I can’t without a little help. I’m honestly in tears and desperate every day because I’m worried about where our food will come the next day. Even now at 23 years old she’s still caring for me because I’m unemployed and can’t take proper care of myself. I honestly feel ashamed because I feel like a leech even though I regret putting myself in this position. Please, I beg you, I need the help or my family will end up one day not knowing where our next meal will come from.

(I’ve attached a picture of me & my mother and one with my sister and Noah, her son so you know what we look like.)

Kind regards,

Help Bring My Babies Home

I was a stay at home mom when my children’s father left to get a haircut and never came back. My boys were 1 and two years old at the time, with no job or family to assist me, I was evicted and my babies were placed in a children home while I was left homeless.Because of the economic crisis in my country, welfare was unwilling to help me. I would get cleaning jobs to help us out but having no one to pick the kids up from daycare was another issue. I never finished school, I was bullied at school because I was poor and having my eye teeth grow in front of my mouth didn’t help either, at home I was being molested by a relative so I couldn’t function normally. I ran away and was on my own from 16 years old. I started to find my way in my late twenties, got a steady job cleaning, saved a little money and was delighted when I met someone who wanted a family. He wanted the little money I had saved and when it was gone so was he. I was homeless for about a year, using public restrooms eating whatever I found to eat. I was at the mercy of strangers and “helpful” men. I did some things I am not proud of because it was about survival. About 18 months ago I managed to rent a room, then I was given some clothes and I found a job,and got a home, it is almost a year now. My salary only covers rent, light and water, there’s nothing left for food or anything else I work for a Fast Food restaurant and there is where I eat my meals, it has even made sick with high blood pressure and weight gain, it’s the option I have. My boys were away from me for nearly 3 years and my case worker said they would have to go up for adoption in a couple months if I can’t take care of them, its been to long. I cry myself to sleep every night, the pain is excruciating, it breaks my heart and theirs every time I go and have to leave them there. The thought of losing them forever has me depressed-my life would be worthless without them. I need help, please help me! I know the solution to the overall problem is to go back to school. The immediate challenge is to provide an acceptable home, there’s no furniture in my house, food, clothing, books etc. Any donations would make it more possible to bring those babies home with their mother where they belong. I thank you in advance for your kindness and promise to do the same when my turn comes. PayPal.Me/Walrond818

I need 15000 dollars to finish school and help my family.

This is something I’m not use to do at all. I have been working for a while and I have been taking care of my needs, school, phone, family, etc, but this is just not the case anymore since a couple of months now. My family has been going through a bad year, me included, (mom not longer working and dad trying to get a job, we’re basically using all our savings, which are almost over ) and we have lost a lot of what we build.  We live in the Dominican Republic.  I am looking to finish school to start working on a legit company and get the money I need to help my family and myself. I study interior Designing, something I love. Here you need to finish school to actually get a job under this type of career.

I had a job recently and I lost it (not about interior design). I have been paying all my expenses with the little money I have saved. I used to get paid USD $750, Every month, which wasn’t really enough to pay everything I need to cover including school, but my parents used to help me, which is no longer the case. I have been busting my ass to finish it and I’m on my last Senior year and I haven’t been able to get a loan. I am looking for real help of whoever is able to provide it. I hate the situation we’re at currently and all I want to do is make sure I get out of it and make the best out of the help of everyone that is able to make this happen.

This will be a live changing situation if whoever is able to can help with this cause. I really don’t know what to do, I’ve search online and I hope this post helps you understand my situation.

The image attached shows 3 accounts at the bank, 2 of them are on $0.00 and the one ending in 0019 has $ DOM 11,356.83 Dominican Pesos, Which is the equivalent to USD $228.27, I need you guys to see where I’m at right now : (

I am desperate

Greetings, my name is Matias and I’m from Argentina. The reason why I write this is to ask for your help. I´ll explain a little about my situation. When I was 14 years old in 2001, my family decided to go to the USA to make a better future for myself and my brother, leaving our home in “good hands” to a family member. After finishing high school and working for two years in the USA, we had no choice but to return to our country, in 2007. Upon arrival, we discovered that our home had been usurped. In the process of taking legal action against the criminals to recover our home, we discovered that they were relatives of a public prosecutor. We have been fighting for that house for years and because of the corruption of this country and the corrupted laws, we lost the only home we had. During all that time, we were forced to rent. Worse yet, my mom got diabetes, which is why her health is deteriorating more and more.

Today the situation in Argentina continues to get worse. The prices of food, home rentals and medicine are rising more and more. Salaries do not go up .. Also getting a job is complicated, even more with a reasonable salary. We are at a point of despair. On one hand, the rents are very high. On the other hand, my mom does not have the treatment or the medication she needs. She does not get the treatment she needs because private hospitals are very expensive, and the public ones can not help. The medicines are also very expensive. We never have enough money. If we pay rent, we eat little and can not buy everything my mom needs. The loss of our home ruined us, not only economically, but also emotionally. I am about to ask you something that I would never do if it were not that I am desperate. I need your help, your generosity, for what little you could give me, it will have great value. Help me build a new home for my family and give my mother the proper treatment and medication she needs.

To whoever reads this, I thank you for your attention.
-Matias

Need a real miracle. Please read this request

To whom it may concern,

Dear Sir or Madam.

First I want to thank you for the time and interest in reading this letter and also I must apologize if you notice some mistakes in this letter my English is good but not perfect. My name is Pablo Rojas I am from Costa Rica, single, no kids, an average professional person.

In October 2016 I quit my job worked in a technology company, the reason to take this decision was simple: last year I wanted to build my own house so with all my savings I had to do some sacrifices like selling my car, cut with the unnecessary expenses just to make this project a reality and actually I decided to be part of the crew building the house as another regular worker, it was the  hardest 5 months of my life, a lot of physical effort but with so much love to see this dream come true. In August 2017 I had to stop because the budget was not enough to complete this house. The progress to finish the whole construction stopped at 80% approx. There are no electrical system, windows, doors to mention the basic elements and that’s ok when there are circumstances you can not control there is a point when you must accept the reality under your own responsibility since then I visit regularly my house so during the weekends I go to work the parkland. Right now I am unemployed and believe me I’ve applied to so many places online and personally. At the moment I work online at my parents’ house just to pay the bills but I am delayed (very behind) with some payments and the bank is going seize my property if I don’t pay from now until 2 months is the short period of time to pay the debt only in the mortgage I don’t mind if within 5 years I finish this house, of course, I really want to move to my new place but the priority is to put the bank out of the road and then I will see how to figure out the rest. I don’t want to lose this battle. I need $15000 to cancel the mortgage, I am unable to ask for another loan because my current unemployment condition doesn’t allow me to get another loan otherwise I’d be more than glad to accept the challenge but is not nice to know that the pressure is huge that I really don’t know what else to do.

I am not sure if there are generous people willing to help a strange like me but if you help me I promise to invite and stay at my place the time you want to stay at my new place. I want to know that there are people with a good heart. Yes, I understand $15000 is a lot of money but is not an impossible goal.

Once again from the bottom of my heart thank you for reading this request. God bless you!

Help me adjust to pay rent, and that will help me save 4 lives.

Hello Friends,

My name is Maria and I live in Costa Rica.

Today I kindly ask you to please help changing the life of a domestic abused incredible woman and her baby as well as 2 abandoned Chow Chow dogs and myself. 

So, a little background…

I am a young entrepreneur.  Last year I left my job and have ever since worked super hard to pay debts and have a “fresh start”. As part of this cleans I left the city, quit my long-term relationship and moved by myself to a country house.

This, I believe was fate working with anticipation…    Now, hear this…

My best friend reached out to me some days ago, she is married with a 5 year old boy. Her husband is heavily abusing her psychologically and does drugs and is basically ruining her.  I am not the first one to know this, but apparently the only one that cares…

She lives in a town without job opportunities and does not own a cent, she aims to get divorced but can’t even afford to take a bus to the city with the baby to look for jobs..

I want to take them with me.   I feel like I actually have to, before the situation goes completely out of hands. I’ve known her since before the marriage and the baby, and to see how she is giving up on life right now deeply affects me.

Issue is, just last month I got really sick and basically spent all of my savings… I am even struggling to pay rent this month..

I am optimistic, I know that with tons of effort and a push from you guys I can get back on my feet hopefully by the end of next month..

But in the meantime, the struggle IS REAL.   I do not have a family to go to, no friend can help me, and I am not eligible for bank loans because I do not have a fixed income.

Now, to add to the situation, 2 adult Chow Chow Dogs were abandoned last week and the person who is taking care of them now cannot keep them; they are analysing the option of putting them to sleep and my heart ACHES to just think about that.

I am asking you today to please help me get my things straight so that I can help them as well.   

I am willing to take my friend and the baby in my place, I even got her a job offer already.  But that implies moving her out from one side of the country to another, make sure that we all have something to eat while she gets her first pay and I work, and eventually lawyer fees to help her start divorcing papers..
Besides, I will have to take the dogs to the vet, buy them food and make sure that I can have them with me for life. 

I first need to be able to pay rent at the end of this month… that gives me a month to work work work and be able to pay again next month.

As of right now, I have basically nothing, and also nothing to lose. 

This is my first time asking for money like this and honestly the idea just came to me as a hunch. I want to trust life. I want to believe that more people care as much as I do right now.  Not even my friend knows that I am doing this.

At this point I am missing 300$. But from 5$ to 5$ miracles can happen.  Please, if this is within your possibilities, we will appreciate you for life! 

If you read all the way to this point, THANK YOU!
I wish you a great day and a great life <3

Maria.

Venezuelan economy is killing my grandpa

My name is Oscar, i’m 18 years old and i live in Venezuela, a country ruined by bad economy issues. Here minimum wage is 1 dollar (2.555.555 Bolivares are 1 dollar with 24 cents, my mom’s wage is a little bit more than that but still very bad wage, and dollar price is rising every 12 hours) and that brings poverty and despair for everyone, my grandpa is diagnosed with a heart condition and he just got bronchitis because we live in a cold part of the country.

These days we are spending less money on food so we can afford the cheapest medicines for him, so me and my family are eating a lot less than before, we are eating badly but he can stay alive and happy, we cannot be like this for a long time and that’s why I looked for places to ask for help, and I got to this one that I hope will work because I’m a little desperate for help. My mother is stressed with everything that has to happen and she really needs a psychological break from all the adversities she is dealing with.

My grandpa is getting a bit worse day by day but he’s strong enough to resist more, so please, i don’t want to lose my grandpa now. I want him to at least see any of my sons in the future, and sorry if my english is a little rusty, i’m not used to write this much.

Thanks, i’m not asking for too much, even 1 or 2 dollars are good enough for helping me and my family.

MY DAUGHTER HAS ENDOMETRIOSIS

Good day one and all , my daughter at age twenty-six is afflicted with a very bad health condition called endometriosis. While it is not life threatening , it causes very excruciating pain  and severe discomfort .

Endometriosis is caused by the uterine wall cells which at the end of the menstrual cycle does not get washed from the uterus, but instead remains there and may also attach itself to other organs. They stay there and grow into small “but” shaped tissue which scars the organs and bleeds when ever the menstrual cycle returns. Apart from causing great pain before and during these cycles, it inhibits contact between male sperms and the egg produced by the body, by blocking the passage for these reproductive cells.The result is vast reduce likelihood of her ever getting pregnant.

I am her father and as such I am deeply concerned for my lovely daughter’s health and welfare. She is a very bright and intelligent girl, achieving a bachelors degree in Child Health and Adolescence Development , but in Jamaica it is quite difficult to compete for scarce opportunities even with such high educational standards. She has not found a job and so it is my duty to afford her medical expenses . I am in a fairly decent job, but my savings was depleted recently when I had to pay over $300,000.00 Jamaican dollars(JMD) in dental expenses for both of us. You can just imagine how shocked I was to hear a few days ago ,that she needs an operation that will cost at least JMD $465,000.00.

Her operation is due to take place on June 18, 2018 which is only days away. I am pleading and imploring anyone with the means , to please donate to this worthy cause. May GOD bless you , for your kind consideration, and if you don’t have what to give , your prayers will be appreciated.

Thank You All.

HELP VOLUNTEERS WITH RETURN TICKETS

I am a volunteer in Ecuador but now stranded in the country. I came to the country with other volunteers to participate in a bilingual government project titled “Time to Teach “. Before we arrived, there was a contract signed by all volunteers with the recruiting foundation called Edificar (Fundacion Edificar). In the contract, it was stated that the government would provide us with the return tickets which was provided at the beginning of the program. The program ought to finish in March 2018, but due to some political and misappropriation of funds reasons, it was terminated in January 2018. In February 2018, when I wanted to confirm my return ticket online, I discovered it had been cancelled. My return flight was scheduled for 17th March, 2018. I called the airline to verify what the problem was, I was told it was cancelled by the foundation and they have collected the refund. I approached the foundation twice and I was informed, it was not their fault but the airline that made the cancellation. They were busy given me excuses and later told me they do not have money to purchase flight ticket for me.

At this juncture, I need the help of every individual to save me from this mess. I no longer have money to pay house rent, my visa is about to expire, and I do not have any health insurance anymore. I am ready to present documents to validate my request. I want to leave this country as soon as possible. I need the sum of one thousand, six hundred dollars (USD 1,600) to catch up with the next available flight.

I shall be looking forward to your help.

Thanks.

I got robbed in Mexico and now I’m stranded

I came to Mexico for a job teaching English but before I could get the job, I had my purse snatched in broad daylight in the middle of the day on a busy street while passers-by just ignored me and I had to let the guys drag me down the street while holding on to my purse for dear life until they finally got it away from me running. The police caught the guys but then they confiscated my purse and everything in it for “evidence,” lying to me about how long they needed to keep it, then transferred it to a different police station on the day they said I could have it back, and so on and so forth. I’ll never see it again. I need to have the passports replaced, the French one and the Irish one; but those cost money and since I didn’t get the job I came here for I don’t have that kind of money anymore. I’ve been Couch-Surfing ever since then, trying to stay at one “couch” for long enough to replace either of the passports which are like 3-8 weeks’ worth of processing time because it’s “overseas” and they have to come from overseas like that. People here in Mexico don’t understand that or don’t care, just because “theirs” don’t take that long or there’s a language barrier or a cultural barrier, whatever. Needless to say there are no womens’ shelters down here if you’re not Mexican or an immigrant from a lesser country like Central or South America. I have no family or friends who could be called on by either of my Embassies because at my advanced age I’m pretty much financially alone in the world. What’s left of my family recently closed out my remaining savings account with £4,500 in it and hid the money from me and won’t send it to me any digital way whatsoever so that’s out of the question. That money is gone, that ship has sailed; it’s probably in Fiji by now. So please dispense with the “have the Embassy call your friends or family” rubbish I’m tired of hearing from people here!

 

I need like £100 for the passport and enough to live off of for the two months it will take, like £1000 or so. I don’t personally know anyone anymore who can spare even the £100. Yes, my sphere of friends and “family” is pathetic but I’m told that my family has always been like that. It’s because I’m the “educated” one with the Master’s degrees so I “shouldn’t” be this broke. But recently I just got out of jail from US Immigration throwing me there for trying to LEAVE the US before I wound up going to jail over something they made up and blew out of proportion. I have teacher licences in several US states and a couple of other countries, I’ve never been in trouble with the law my entire life in any of those countries; up until last year when I tried to leave the US I had no criminal record whatsoever. So because I’m a minority, US Border Patrol and the state of New York decided after 36 hours of searching my car and interrogation and making up stories about everything I had in the car and in my suitcases, no matter what I said to the contrary, they decided I was some kind of “terrorist” for trying to leave the US and wanting to go to Belgium or France for my PhD in Physics, made me some kind of “terrorist.” So now all of a sudden after 45 years of being squeaky-clean I have a 5-page “rap sheet” from US Immigration. For no reason other than racism and the Trump Administration. Treat every nonwhite person trying to leave the US like some kind of “terrorist” and give them a criminal record so they can’t come back. Fine. I’m trying to get back to France, not back into the Racist States of AmeriKKKa. But meanwhile, the government confiscated pretty much everything I had, all my computer electronics, all my “papers,” all my college and university transcripts, even some of my clothes, for reasons I can’t figure out. I got “worked over” for no reason other than I’m a minority – and I’m a woman, too, that’s what I can’t figure out; why they treated me like a MAN. Terrorists are MEN, damn idiot USA. They even said stupid things like asking me who my employer was, and I said “Teachers Without Borders” and they’d never heard of it so they said I had NO job. That sort of idiotic nonsense went on for the better part of 2 calendar days before I got thrown in jail.

 

So, yeah, I’ve been through more in this past year than any one should have. And I’ve had that same purse snatched off my shoulder 3 times in one calendar year and confiscated by now the “authorities” of all three North American countries, first Canada, then the US, now Mexico. I want off this continent!! It obviously doesn’t want me here. I’m sitting here in Mexico just trying to blend in and not stand out; because I’m dark-skinned I blend in better but I need to get out of here too. Just a couple thousand dollars will do; I’m not asking to replace my entire savings account, here.

Broke Man / Want to Start his own Job

Hello!,

First of all, I’m a Peruvian architect (that’s why English isn’t my native language), with 29 yrs old and who wants to pay his debts and have the opportunity to start his own office.

Look, it all starts in 2015, I always want to find a job, and every time I find them they last for several months (government jobs here are achieved through influences and interests). As time passed, there was always an inconvenience in the house (I still live with my mother), and loans had to be taken from the banks in order to move forward. So it got to the point of no longer being able, finding desperate and frustrated having a debt that can’t be repaid, that my mother earns very little and that I find myself without work. It is frustrating and exasperating.

Why is there no work in private companies?, for the knowledge that acquired over time, the programs that I learned, what I want to pay is very little and work very poorly valued. Work and exponential clients exist, that my city is a small city and in a slight growth (Tacna, 400 million inhabitants). But people do not have confidence in giving money to someone who does not have an office or a place to go and look for them. He made my scams, he published me on the internet, but I can’t get it. This situation is suffocating.

My mother, despite all the problems we have had, has faith in me and I also have faith in me. He wants to help me, it turns out that in his house there is a space (with access to the street) where I could build my office. Currently I have online training (since I do not have money) with different programs to open my office and advertise online and start my own business.

Currently my debt is S/.6,770.66 (Nuevos Soles) = $ 1995.00 dollars, and we need the amount of S/.7420.00 (Nuevos Soles) = 2120.00 dollars to be able to build the office.

I’m going to be serious here. At least I would like to be able to pay off my debt and then take out a loan and open the office on my own.

But I could not thank you more and God if I have the money for both and start my own way with what I love most, architecture.

Venezuelan about to immigrate.

Hello, I am 23 years old. I was born in Venezuela and I’ve always lived in here, I never had the thought that I would leave my country. Perhaps some of you are aware or not, but my country is going through a horrible situation.

 

The government has literally ruined it, there’s lack of medicines, lack of food, lack of a good income (we only gain 3 dollars per month as a minimum, perhaps a little more, for example). I won’t get into details, but the government controls all the dollars of the country, so there’s a black market with its price that “DolarToday” establish through means I don’t know about. I’ve always been bad with economics.

 

The point is, a lot of people have to immigrate in order to progress. Some can’t do it, because they don’t have the means (a lot of people doesn’t even have Internet connection because thief steals or destroys the infrastructure of the ISP in exchange for money, copper is quite valuable). But I was able to be helped by my aunt through a loan and I will immigrate shortly to Uruguay.

 

Now, I can live through my debt, but I cannot live with the feeling that I will leave my parents alone. My brother and sisters already have their life establish, they have a family now. I am the youngest one, so I would have the capacity to help my parents directly because I don’t have a child nor a girlfriend to support. But that’s exactly the problem; I am the “man of the house”, lacking a better expression. My father has arthritis, due to bad medications and doctors, when the diseased started he wasn’t able to stop it in time so he lost all his strength and his fingers are quite twisted. He is also getting old, and his organs, due to his alcoholic tendencies, are starting to show the signs of damage. EVEN after all of that, he keeps working driving a truck to distribute comestibles to stores. He gets paid well and constantly thankfully, but for how much time he can keep up?

 

And my mother, well. She is going through a treatment; her eyes have some problems and she is going through an operation. It costs only 560 dollars, but since we are not able to obtain dollars (and like I said we only gain like 3 per month as a minimum) is impossible for us to pay it. Thankfully the insurance company will cover most of it, but… The medicines are the problem here. I would like to provide her with those medicines when I move (send them from Uruguay to Venezuela), but she will be unable to act like the woman of the house for several months due to the operation. And since my dad is unable to do strong physical activities, well… That’s another thing to worry about.

 

I am scared for all of that. Even if it is for the best, at the beginning it will be hard. I will have a loan to pay (1000+ dollars, I still don’t know the price of the plane ticket but 1000 is the quantity she will provide me), I will have to keep sending money constantly to my family. (Even ten dollars should be enough to last for a month, the dollar is really valuable in Venezuela, even if it’s just a little). Aside from that, I will have to take care of my own expenses while I am in Uruguay; mostly the monthly rent, and the food. The top of it all is that Uruguay is expensive, at least for the beginning. And that’s what I want, a way to ensure that my beginning will not be as hard as it will be. I haven’t gotten any kind of job related to my career because of the lack of work and the fact that the payment is not good at all. I would rather stay home taking care of my family and the house (while learning stuff that will hopefully help me in the future) than work for simple things while leaving all the housework to my mom. (so I lack experience and will have to do modest jobs and I am so afraid that the paid will only cover the necessary to survive in Uruguay and not to help my family).

 

I am asking for the minimum, really. I am not asking for a lot, but any contribution will make a big difference because even with one dollar my parents would be able to eat for at least one day. Thank you in advance if you decide to support me, and if you don’t but read this text, wish me luck to this adventure that life has given me.

 

I won’t put a photo of my father’s arthritis because I want to respect his integrity and privacy, but I will post a photo of my mom’s indications that she has to do and medicines that she has to take after her operation. Thanks again!

I need to pay my rent at least for this month

I would like to ask you for help, because I’m desperate, I’m already a woman, and I have several problems to do things by myself, I will try to give you a summary:

My mother has cancer, and also mental problems, she is just selfish and destroyed our family, her mental problem made my father so unhappy and made him lost his job.

My father is 61 years old, he had to live trying to protect me from her, he is getting bullied constantly by her and authorities in my country didn’t do anything to help us, even when we asked them for help when we were younger.

As consequence my father overprotected me a lot, because our economical problems we lived in a very small rented flat, so, my back and my legs got damaged after years of living in there, and also I got fat. I am not able to get a job what requires physical effort; I couldn’t study at the university so… I am literally useless. In the future I would like to help my mother with her mental problem if is not late yet, and give to my father a quiet and enjoyable life and if is possible… recover my health.

So… about how much do I need?

$ 2000 USD to a familiar who lent us money 2 months ago…
$ 500 USD per month to pay my rent
$ 200 USD per month for food
$ 600 USD a machine to stamp my draws on T-shirts then I can try to sell them
($ 3300 USD total)

I think that I am quite good at drawing, so I wanted to make some money with that, like start my own business doing my own T-Shirts. With the materials would be a good way to start but this one is totally optional… if someone could help me with that… Thank you.

Any amount can help me at this point… and I will attach an image from my kind of drawings, if you like to look for me at Deviant Art, I am offering commissions too.
