Hello,
I am not usually one to ask for help but I am at the point now where my bills are piling up and I’m struggling to put food on the table. I do work but it is not enough to cover our basic needs. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
From Disabled Shut-In to Free | Six Years In, on the Final Stretch
Help Me Finish the Home I Built With My Own Two Hands — I’m So Close
I’m turning 67 this August, and I’m asking for your help to close the final gap on something I’ve been building for years, piece by piece, out of necessity and hope.
The day Covid shut down San Diego, I had been homebound for 14 years. I was a disabled shut-in, confined mostly to four walls, my body never telling me from one hour to the next how long I could sit, stand, walk, or bend before pain would take over. The rent had gone up, drastically, more than I could afford, and I lost the home I’d lived in for 20 years. I had to act fast. I chose to build a RV van and become a nomad, because a van meant I could take my home with me anywhere and I wouldn’t have to be homebound.
That decision saved me. Van life has been a godsend for my mental health in a way I couldn’t have predicted. I found a local van life community, genuine, grounded people and made real friends for the first time in years. I am not the same severely depressed isolated person that I was.
I’ve come so far already. I sold everything I owned, saved the stimulus money and saved from not having to pay rent (while at my sister’s), In 2022, I was able to buy a $10,000 high-top Chevy van, and with the left over money, I was able to have insulation and flooring installed. Homes on Wheels Alliance gifted me a solar system, a bed platform, and reflectix for the windows. San Diego Good Guys gifted me a bench with a table and a heater. A Craigslist woman donated a barely-used Tempurpedic mattress. Fast-forward to 2026, I just had one and a half walls installed and a kitchen cabinet with countertop. Every piece has brought this space closer to being a real livable and safe home.
But right now, my remaining wall and two doors are still bare. I don’t have a sink or a place to wash up. My windows don’t have proper covers, which means no real insulation against the cold. Every week that passes without these finished is another week I’m living in a half-built shell instead of a home and at 66, with a body that doesn’t wait for anyone, I don’t have years to spare to get this done slowly.
I need $2,700 right now to finish it:
- The remaining walls and doors, covered in painted wood to match what’s already done
- A small sink and cabinet, so I finally have somewhere to wash up and brush my teeth
- Proper window covers, for insulation, and warmth
I’m also asking for $2,500 as an emergency repair fund. This van isn’t just my home, it’s my only way to get anywhere. If it breaks down, I’m not inconvenienced, I’m stranded. That fund is the difference between an inconvenience and a crisis.
I’ve done everything I can on my own to get this far. What’s left isn’t luxury, it isn’t $100,000 van. It is the last stretch between where I am now and a home that’s actually finished, actually safe, actually mine. I’m asking you to help me close that gap now, while I still have the strength to finish what I started. Any donation, regardless of the amount will bring me one step closer to having a real home. Thank you for reading my story, and thank you, from the bottom of my heart, if you’re able to help.

Google Next Conference
Hello,
My name is Vincent. I am currently studying to become a Google cloud engineer. I would love to attend the Google Next Conference in Japan and need the funding to make this happen. There was a Google Next Conference that happened in Las Vegas this past April. I wasn’t able to attend due to the prices. I currently work in assembly and I’m living check to check and cannot afford this. So, the dream to become a cloud engineer is my goal and will change my life for the better. The early bird price for the conference in Vegas was $999, regular price was $1,599 and the onsite price was $2,299. And this doesn’t even include the plane flight to Vegas. That passed and I missed it, but I heard that there is another Google Next Conference happening in Japan but it’s free. The reason it’s free in Japan is because Googles competitors dominate in Japan. So, they made it free to compete and gain a foothold there. But even though it’s free, I would still have to buy a plane ticket and pay hotel costs. It takes place on the 30th and 31st of July. So, this is right around the corner. The current price for a plane flight to Japan from here is around $1500 and the hotels beside the Convention Center are charging around $150 per day. I would like to have a 3-night, maybe 4-night stay. I would really love to attend because this can open up the door to a potential future entry level job and the networking possibilities are endless for after completing my schooling. I would love to raise $3000 for hotel, flight, travelers’ insurance and expenses. Please help me to make it there.

Thank you so much for your time, Vincent.

Dear begging money
I am writing to seek your support for the Monarch Mission Foundation, Inc., an organization dedicated to helping unhoused individuals by providing shelter, clean clothing, trade skills training, and employment assistance. We have already registered the foundation and launched our website at https://mmissionf.com.
Unfortunately, our initiative recently faced a significant setback. I personally donated $5,000 to a friend to create our marketing efforts, but he unexpectedly passed away with no next of kin, making it impossible to recover those funds. Due to my own health challenges with cancer and living on Social Security, I currently lack the financial means to replace this money independently.
Despite these obstacles, I am fully committed to finishing this project. I am reaching out to ask for your help—not for myself, but for the people who have lost everything and simply need a chance to rebuild their lives.
Please visit our website to learn more about our mission and how you can support this cause. Thank you for your time and compassion.
Sincerely,

Financial help
- My name is Tiffany I currently live in Darlington, South Carolina. I have never done anything like this before and feel slightly embarrassed to have to ask strangers for help. I currently work as a waitress and we don’t make much money so im surviving off of tips on a day to day basis. I have 2 sons and one has sickle cell disease so he gets sick quite often and that causes me to miss work. My mom passed last year and she was always my help when im in need. I am behind on my rent, my car payment, my car insurance, and my light bill because I can only pay little at a time. I’m ineligible for food stamps so it’s hard some nights to feed my family and I have growing boys that eat more than myself. Times are really hard at this time and I really just need help getting back on my feet until I can score a better paying job. Any and everything would be highly appreciated, again I have always done things on my own but I really fell short after the death of my mom, I hope someone sees this and can help me out in any way possible. I have never had to ask a stranger for help but right now I am in dire need of help. I don’t have any family it’s just me and my boys. I hope someone sees this and has been through a similar situation and can help me just this once. I have a PayPal account

Emergency money, electric bill and moving help
Husband and I moved into brothers house 9 yrs ago, he was disabled and a vet. We lent him over $40,000. to renovate the house. Replaced the whole well system, replaced the roof and anything major you can think of, septic pumps, etc… He past away two and a half yrs ago. I paid the mortgage payments for a year and a half to keep out of foreclosure with promise from probate lawyer that we would get back all the money as long as I had the receipts, I do. But when they did title search they found out he had a $999,000. judgement against him. Lawyer told me, we weren’t getting our money back. We are devastated and have to move into low income housing. We got behind on our electric trying to keep up the mortgage, $3000.+ and they now want to charge me a $600.+ deposit before we move the electric. Movers want $1500. – $1,800. to help move our heavy items. We are in our 70s and hate asking for charity. We appreciate any help and hope to be able to pay back as soon as we can.
Lease to purchase/stole all our money/now want to evict us
I am writing to you in a time of urgent need and desperation for my family. We are facing an incredibly difficult situation regarding our home and are seeking any assistance or guidance you can provide.
My family has always been active in our community and supportive of our troops. Currently, my husband is receiving Social Security benefits, and I receive Social Security Disability due to ongoing medical issues.
On April 1st of this year, we invested our life savings of $22,000 into a lease-to-own agreement for a beautiful property in Keystone Heights, Florida. We have always made our payments on time. However, shortly after moving in, we discovered a major issue with the septic system. When we addressed this with the property owners, they refused to honor our contract, stated they are keeping our deposit, and demanded that we pay $355,000 by July 15th. If we cannot raise these funds, we face eviction and homelessness.
Our dream for this property is to operate a bed and breakfast in the second house on the lot. It features a greenhouse, a pool, and space for hens, making it an ideal spot for visitors, including families visiting nearby universities or tourists traveling for the upcoming FIFA World Cup. We are eager to put in the hard work to renovate the space and share our hospitality with others, but we are now just days away from losing everything.
We are reaching out to ask for any help, financial assistance, or legal guidance you can offer to help us save our home and investment. We can provide pictures and further details upon request.
Thank you so much for your time, kindness, and consideration.
Sincerely,
Keith, Rebekah, and Cameron Daly
Emergency situation
Hello, my name is Ruhi. I work as a live-in travel nurse, so I live with my patients 24/7.
I have been unemployed for the past three months because my most recent assignment was extremely difficult. The patient I cared for was very aggressive, stubborn, racist, and simply not a pleasant person to be around.
He believed that anything in the refrigerator belonged to him. Even after I repeatedly explained that the food that he threw away was min. His family was aware of this behavior but never did anything to stop it.
He would also put his hands on me whenever he became upset, which was almost every day. He frequently opened my bedroom door without knocking, even when I was changing or not fully dressed. I asked him many times to knock before entering, but he ignored my requests.
The last incident was the last straw . I woke up on the morning of Eid, one of the most important holidays in Islam, similar in significance to Christmas for Christians. The night before, I had ordered a special meal from a restaurant to celebrate. When I woke up, I discovered that all of my food was gone. I asked him where it was, and he told me that he had thrown everything away.
I was heartbroken and asked him why he did it. Instead of answering, he stood up, yelled, “Leave! Leave!” and shoved me so hard that I hit the back of my head against the wall. He is about 6’2″, while I am only 5’6″, so I was completely shocked and frightened.
I immediately informed his family, but they did not seem surprised by what had happened. Even then, they still took no action.
While packing my belongings to leave, I made another disturbing discovery. My bedroom had a lock on the outside of the door, but not on the inside where I could lock it for my own safety. I checked every other bedroom in the house, and none of them had an outside lock. Mine was the only one. If I had known that before starting the job, I would never have accepted the assignment unless the room had a lock that I could control from the inside.
My agency had no knowledge of his behavior before placing me in that home.
I have worked as a caregiver for more than 10 years, and I truly love caring for seniors. I have always gone above and beyond for my patients. However, this experience has left me with severe anxiety, and I am now afraid to return to live-in healthcare work.
I am considering becoming self-employed because I never want to experience something like this again. Unfortunately, I have been unemployed for three months and need financial assistance to pay my bills, obtain health insurance (which my agency does not provide), and start my own business.
I am seeking $8,000 to help cover these expenses and give me the opportunity to rebuild my life and career. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my situation.

Urgent Rental Assistance Request.
I am asking for emergency rental assistance to help keep my family in our home. I have been a single father and the primary caregiver for my three children since 2021, and I also care for my mother. I worked as a truck driver for 12 years, but I lost my job in February. Since then, I’ve submitted over100 job applications and gone to around10 interviews, but haven’t been able to secure employment. I exhausted my savings, did not qualify for unemployment, and have been relying on gig work to try to make ends meet. Despite my efforts, I’ve fallen behind on rent and now need3,715 dollars by the 15th to prevent eviction. Without assistance, my children, my mother, and I are at risk of losing our home. Any support would make an enormous difference and help keep my family safe. Thank you for considering our situation.

Support for Groceries and Essentials
I am currently facing a difficult period where I can’t afford basic necessities because of some past financial decisions. It’s been tough to keep up with everyday expenses, and I often worry about how I’ll manage to get through each week. Sharing my story isn’t easy, but I know that reaching out for help is the first step toward getting back on track.
The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward covering groceries and essential supplies like toothpaste. These are things that most people take for granted, but for me right now, they represent a lifeline. Your support will help me meet these needs and give me some breathing room as I work to improve my situation.
Any help will help ease my anxiety by a lot right now. Even the smallest contribution means the world to me, and I am deeply grateful for any support you can offer. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering a donation.
Broken Systems
I am raising funds on behalf of Myself and My Daughter who is an incredible Young Lady whose strength and dedication inspire everyone who knows her. I put the needs of my family before my own, despite facing challenges that would overwhelm most people.
I am a full-time caregiver for my daughter, who was born with DiGeorge syndrome. After undergoing a life-saving heart transplant, my daughter’s kidneys failed, and she now depends on dialysis three times every week to stay alive. Because of their unstable housing situation, she was denied placement on the kidney transplant list—a heartbreaking setback that has made finding safe, stable housing even more urgent.
Although I receive IHSS income while caring for my daughter, it is simply not enough to cover the family’s basic needs. I am also raising four other children and helping care for my eight-month-old grandbaby. In addition, I am apart of the “sandwich generation,” providing support and care for both my mother and my grandmother while trying to keep my family together.
I have worked tirelessly to find employment that fits around my daughter’s dialysis schedule. I have applied for countless jobs, invested in a remote job subscription service, and continues searching every day, but finding work that accommodates my caregiving responsibilities has been far more difficult than expected.
As if these challenges weren’t enough, my family is now facing an unlawful detainer after my rental assistance program stopped paying rent because of a severe infestation in our apartment. Despite repeated requests, management failed to correct the problem or relocate our family, even though other tenants with similar issues were moved to different units. Living in these conditions has forced our family to throw away many of our belongings, and we are now preparing for court while being told I may have to pursue a separate civil case to hold management accountable.
The emotional, physical, and financial toll has been overwhelming. No family should have to live in unsafe conditions while caring for a medically fragile child.
Today, we are asking for your kindness and support. Every donation, no matter the amount, will help my family rebuild our lives by providing:
- Safe and stable housing.
- Security deposits and moving expenses.
- Essential furniture and household items to replace what was lost.
- Utility deposits and other basic necessities.
- Support while continuing caring for my daughter and searching for employment that will work with my family’s medical needs.
I have spent years fighting for my daughter’s life and doing everything I can for her children. Now I need others to stand beside us during one of the hardest seasons of my life.
If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with your family, friends, church, coworkers, and social media community. Every share helps bring my family’s story to someone who may be able to make a difference.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your compassion, generosity, and prayers. Your support gives this family hope for a fresh start and a safe place to call home.

Urgent Oral Surgery for My Dachshund Jordy
Please help me with my female dachshund’s oral surgery. Her name is Jordy. She is an 11 year old all black miniature dachshund. I have been softening Jordy’s food and giving her canned food to help her eat but she still is having pain. She has actually lost weight due to not eating as much because of the pain. Jordy will rub the sides of her mouth on her blankets or the floor to alleviate the pain and paw at her mouth, it is so sad to watch. Jordy’s breath is also very bad from her teeth needing attention. I have tried brushing her teeth but lately it’s too painful for her.
Jordy’s veterinarian has given me the estimate of the cost of the surgery. They have quoted between $3800-$5000 due to how bad her teeth/gums are. After doing x-rays on her mouth they are estimating having to pull between 10-15 teeth. Jordy will be put under anesthesia and be kept for most of the day after surgery to make sure she is okay. They will also prescribe pain meds and antibiotics to take home.
After getting this estimate I just broke down and cried. I do not have that kind of money just laying around to pay for her surgery and unfortunately it needs done immediately before it gets worse. I am asking anyone who can help me get my Jordy back to being pain free, I would greatly appreciate the generosity.
URGENT HELP NEEDED AFTER A TOTAL-LOSS CAR ACCIDENT
I was recently in a serious car accident that totaled my car and left me shaken trying to manage my insurance claim while still recovering. Because car was financed, I received no payout in fact I may still owe money on a car i no longer have. I currently have no car. My insurance cut off my rental coverage seven days after my accident and I’ve been paying rental fees, medical bills, and daily expenses out of pocket. Without a vehicle I cannot get to work, and the costs are becoming impossible to manage. I’m asking for $12.000 to help me get into a safe, reliable car so i can return to work and stabilize my life again, any support will go directly towards ending rental fees and securing a dependable vehicle. Thank you for your help and kindness.
