USA | Begging Money

BAD LUCK

I don’t know how to start. Instead of being better, it’s just worse every day. I just turned 31 two days ago.. and I have nothing in my life besides more problems.

I’m Polish. I moved to the USA when I was 23. I finished school in Poland and I moved to Chicago to keep learning and live the “American dream”. I went to ESL school and of course, I had to make some money to live even if I came to my brother’s house… I found a job in a polish restaurant as a dishwasher.. and I earned my “server” position step by step, day by day doing the work that nobody cared about.. but I made it! I started to make better money and I met a guy there (also Polish) so I thought my life was going to be stable and just happy – I thought I found peace and all will be better and right and I will have my own family.

Unfortunately, it was only my blind love and stupid dream to have a happy life. We were 3 years together when he proposed… we got married and after a few months I found out he has double life.. with our mutual friend – she also was working with us.

So I found out I was cheated the whole time… by the love of my life and friends.. all friends around me – they knew about them. Just not me. I couldn’t forgive myself and them. I got depressed. I had to move out and be on my own. I had savings but it wasn’t too much – I just started life here.. no credit history, no opportunity to get some help. I was harassed to leave the car that my “fiance” “bought” for me because he was about to call the police that I stole it.. even if I was making payments.. it was just in his name. He basically threw me out of our apartment. I was beaten and kicked out in the middle of the night without the phone, keys, and shoes. I didn’t have a chance to even go back to the house so I had to sleep on the patio chair. IT WAS A NIGHTMARE. I used all y savings to get the apartment and a car. I had to buy all the essentials with my credit cards and I wasn’t making enough. I just had to use whatever I could. I was just left to fail. After I spent all the money to get on my feet… I had a car accident. Drunk driver without insurance… HIT AND RUN. How much bad luck a person can have in situations like that? The car that I put the rest of my savings in… was totaled. I just used my credit card to buy new tires.. and 3 days before my bday the accident happened (2019). I was fighting 3 years… to get something back. I just got a settlement.. of course, how much did I get? THE SMALLEST AMOUNT.. my lawyer took more, even if I had to call them/email them and nobody answered. I had to pay for an apartment a lot of money and I had to take a new car.. with no credit history… it cost me a ton for a month. I was short every time to pay my bills. I still am. I had to borrow money from some people and now I can’t even afford to pay them back. I am really happy that I am healthy and I can work and I know I could be okay in a few years… but I have no luck at all! I was trying to pay my credit cards I made payments, then they were returned… which caused a lot of trouble.. closed accounts, overdrafts, fees… I don’t know how can I catch up with all of it. I have a better job now, but with all the past due payments is hard to keep a positive balance and positive thoughts.. I really want to be able to sleep at night without thinking about where should I borrow the money.. I tried everywhere, but nobody is accepting me. my credit is even less because of that. I also tried to gamble to win something and be able to pay all that I have to… and that was the worst – I even lost more. I don’t know what to do. I work 2 jobs and I just want to be able to pay for everything and be finally less stressed. I need around 25k to be out of any debt… even the loans from my friends.. it’s not too much, but I am on my own and every day something new is coming up. I can’t live like that anymore. I wish I could have some extra $5-6Ks in my pocket so I could make the late payments and give back money to the people who borrowed me cash… What should I do? Where can I get help? My story is much longer and much more complicated but I don’t have the opportunity to say it all…

All I need is some support to get back on my feet, and have one payment, not all of them everywhere… the fees are growing and I can’t catch up to be on zero… my account is overdrawn for 1800.00 now.. PLEASE ADVISE/HELP/SUPPORT… because I don’t know if there is anything else left for me.. I want to be happy…

Anyways.. everything that happened to me.. made me feel sick and tired of my life. I have no idea where to find help… and I’m sure the Citi bank will send collector for this closed account very soon.

PLEASE! HELP! I don’t want to fail and be bankrupt at 31.. please!

Getting my son back.

I am a young mother, and I’m trying to finish school to make a good life for my son and myself. His father offered to help me by temporarily switching custody, then as soon as I agreed he sewed me for custody based on a pile of lies. My son is currently being neglected there, and cries and begs me to let you know him live with me full-time. He’s only five years old and already is scared to tell me what happens at his fathers house because I might tell his father and he’ll get in trouble. I only get him every other weekend and I get two FaceTimes a week on Tuesday and Thursday. My son is rushed off the phone when we talk as well. He got hurt on his 4-wheeler (I didn’t know he had one and I’m not okay with him riding alone while his father and step mother don’t pay him any attention, he fell off the front the other day and was run over by it… he had to get up and drive it back only to be told to pay better attention by his father.) on top of all this, they’re having another baby and seem to only care about that baby, yet won’t let me see my son more. I am not informed of days out of daycare, or anything. I ask all the time to get him more or talk more and I’m just ignored. I’m trying to scrape up enough money to get a lawyer, since last time we went to court I couldn’t afford one and ended up where I am now. My five year old needs therapy from the trauma sustained there. I work full time at a daycare, I live alone, my son have everything he needs and I get what he wants if I can afford it. I’m also trying to get my degree in Law and Justice, so one day I can be a lawyer and help mothers, and fathers that are in similar situations. I am doing everything I can to give my son a good life, had I known my ex would treat him like this I would have never let him go live with them for majority of the time. I have never kept him from his dad, and I always updated him even when he didn’t ask. The lawyer that had the lowest price with the best results quoted me $2500 for the time, preparation and court appearances if we are able to agree and sit down for mediation, plus whatever mediation costs. She said after the initial hearing it would be another $3,000-6,000 to take it all the way to trial, how many court dates, depending on how much evidence, research and how hard he’s trying to block me from my sons life. So it’ll take at least $5,500-$8,500 to get the lawyer paid. My ex has made it clear he wants to hurt me (his wife told me that they just wanted the perfect family and they wouldn’t care if I died, it would actually make their lives easier). So I know it will be a drawn out battle, but anything will help, my son is the most important thing in my life. When he initially sued me for custody, he didn’t tell me until the day I was supposed to pick my son up, I wasn’t served for over 2 months. So I talked to both counties (we live in adjacent counties) sheriffs departments and a lawyer consult all saying they couldn’t find anything filed and I could get my son from daycare to avoid any dispute. I let my ex know before , when, and after I picked up my son and where we were going. (Back to my house.) he waited until the next day, had the police come and take my son crying and screaming from my arms, and this is when I was finally served… he didn’t communicate, he chose instead to traumatize my son when all he had to do was send me a message saying there were actually papers, or send me a picture of them. Then after my son was ripped from my arms, they didn’t let him see me, call me, or FaceTime at all until we went to court and the judge ordered it. This was mid December court wasn’t until the end of February. So I missed Christmas with my son and didn’t even get to call him. He tried his best to keep me from getting my son on his birthday, which is at the end of February luckily after the court date. The judge even called him out and scolded him for keeping my son from me in this manner. And I still don’t want to keep my son from his father unless he is hurting him. I firmly believe that children need both of their parents as long as they have only good intentions towards the child.

Never Lost Hope Before But….

I’m thoroughly convinced that life is nothing but one big tragedy. In spite of this darker perspective, I’ve always been able to maintain hope, even jn the darkest of storms. But life has a way of breaking everyone in the end and I’m afraid I may be at the end of my chain. Please allow me a moment of your precious time to tell you a little of my story.

The Flood Begins

The stress began back in mid March of this year, 2022. My wife and I were having a very animated and heated disagreement that was sparked by a misunderstanding and a touch of stress. Since we were trying to over talk each other, it was rather loud as well.

Long story short, a nosey neighbor called it in as a disturbance, police showed up, and since our argument was animated ( e.g. talking followed by rapid hand movement ) the cop, who was parked behind us with a large SUV with deeply tinted windows between our vehicles, claims to have seen a physical altercation.

We were unaware that he was even there until he pulled me from my vehicle and proceeded to excessively taze me. At this point, my wife and I have dropped our argument and are now trying to figure out what the hell is going on and why I’m being tased. The officer proceeded to taze me even after his partner had placed cuffs on me. This man was in a mission for inflict as much hurt as he could we be tightened the cuffs tight enough that they tore my skin, slammed me against his hood and pepper sprayed my right ear, but hit his partner full on in the face. He was out of control. He never said a word to me the entire time all this was going on.

Even after seeing video footage, that showed no physical altercation taking place, this officer proceeded to file false charges against me, took it upon himself file an EPO against me so I couldn’t return home, even though my wife told them clearly there was no physical fighting and they lacked evidence to support their charges.

I was held for over 6 hours in the drunk tank with pepper spray on my face and ear, still burning, and made to listen to the guards laugh hysterically while watching me struggle to clean the spray off. The officer in charge advised me to use water, knowing it would only reactivate the spray. Afte that, he told me piss would work….so I pissed in my hands and tried to clean it away. I sat in that I ask for over 6 hours smelling it piss and sweat, with the spray burning for at least half that time. I wasn’t given a call or any contact with anyone for the entire time and was denied basic rights simply because the officers didn’t feel like booking me in. This ordeal has left me with a worse case of PTSD than what Afghanistan did.

The Storm Continues…

It took almost a week for me to bond out after I was arrested and falsely charged. While I was sitting in jail due to this officers incredible lack of honesty, my wife was hospitalized with ARDS, where she was laid up for a week, unable to breath on her own, an unfortunate and scary result of excessive vaping while I was in jail.

Since there was a EPO filed, I was unable to legally be with my wife while she was hospitalized. She was hospitalized a second time a month after discharge for double pneumonia, yet I was once again unable to “legally” be with her due to the epo. This while thing has been ridiculous and all we want is to come back together as a family, her, myself, and our 4 boys.

I’ve been separated from my family since February becaus piece of this piece of shit excuse it a cop who was too proud to admit he was wrong and lied about me and the situation in order to file false charges against me.

I’ve been sleeping in my car, under bridges, in parks, in parking lots, and any where else because I can’t go to be with my family. During this time of separation, I have been robbed a handful of times, shot at, stabbed, as well as jumped and beaten for being the wrong skin color on the wrong side of town!

The Storm Hits Full Force

Now, while trying to take care of legal issues, and taking forever because I can’t afford a lawyer, I come to find out my mother, one of the most important women in my life, my support and best friend, has melanoma cancer which may or may not be treatable….this….this is breaking me more than anything….I have no dad, he was neve around. My mom and sister are all I really have left in my side of the family and now….

My Request

I’m here today asking for financial help in these crazy, dark, depressing times. I am trying to raise money not only to help me in my legal issues, but also to help my mother to ensure she is able to get the best care possible for her cancer.

I NEED to raise at least $250,000 to start with. This would be broken down in the following manner – 50k to get a defense lawyer, 50k to pay a civil rights lawyer after I beat this bogus case, and $150k to help my mother with hospital bills and medications.

Please, I’m begging you, from the very depths of my heart and soul, if you can help, please do. It would be the greatest blessing anyone could give. You can send the help to the link below.

I need help

Hi to whomever reading this. I need help and I need it bad. If you’re reading this grab a tissue and get comfortable because my life is chaos. I’ve been going through stuff since I was 2 years old. I was taken from my mom because she left me home alone and cps got involved. I ended up staying with my dad which my stepmom didn’t like me because her and my mom is cousins. I was beaten by my step sisters used to jump me (I have 5) and my dad used to come home ask me why my lip was busted or why I have a knot on my head. I was so terrified to tell him what was going on because i knew he would be gone 30 mins later my dad was doing illegal things so i knew the moment he stepped out the door if I told they was going to jump me again. I know right sounds like a Cinderella story but this is what I was living in. This went on for years and when I say years I literally mean years. I was raped by my first cousin at 5 years old I kept saying molest until I got older and any type of penetration is raped. I couldn’t tell nobody even tho my 4th sister came in when he was messing with me she didn’t speak up nor anybody would believe me because I was the outcast. It was days I went without eating and days where they put things in my food. Like bleach, rings, dish detergent. Also they made me do dangerous things that could’ve killed me but I was too afraid. I ended up getting taking from them when I was 12. I was in foster care until the day before my 13th birthday. I ended up back with mother. Everything was ok for the first month. Then her husband started raping me and my mom started beating me. She blamed for getting taken from her at the age of 2. I eventually started trying to kill myself to trying to shoot myself with a gun at that time I don’t know guns have safety on them. To also trying to hang myself overdosing. My mom admitted me to the mental hospitals not to get me any help that I needed but because she can get a social security check or disability check. My doctor in the mental hospital used to wonder why I would be ok all day until phone call time. He eventually had the staff to monitor my phone calls and that’s when my mother told me if her husband did rape me I deserved it. That’s what made dcfs whis is another form of child protective services get involved and I was removed from her. I was in foster care but I ended up running away because in my mind I’m thinking they can’t love me if my own family don’t. I was homeless to the point where I was stealing out laundromats for clothes and out of dollar general for food. I’ve been on my own since I was 15. Eventually a man came around and showed me a little bit of love and I ran with it. All I wanted was to be loved that I ended up pregnant at 18. Back homeless again to where another man came along way older than me he introduced me to drugs that I didn’t want to do but because he said he loved me and gave me a roof over my head. I ended up doing it anyway. And that didn’t last long so I was back homeless. And that’s when I met my little girl father and he left me after I cried and told him about my life he abandoned me. I’m 24 years old with a 5yr old little boy and a 2 year old little girl. I’ve been diagnosed with so many things from my past that you can even imagine. I’m behind on rent and utilities. I don’t know where to go from here I’m trying my best I don’t want my kids to go through anything I’ve been through. I’m trying to build a better life for them. I’m just playing the cards I was dealt. I’m not asking for any sympathy. My therapist told me one day imma have to face what’s holding me back. But everytime I try I can’t get through the first sentence. I’m not gonna ask for an amount I’m grateful for whatever I get. My rent is 650 and my utilities is 400 that has build up. Anything will help. But I know one thing if I ever overcome what I’ve been through I’m not looking back. I also want to right a book about my life I only gave you all the short version.

Begging for a life preserver

My name is Jennifer. I was raised by a single momma (she was the best). As the second oldest, I helped raise my younger sisters. At one point, we were nearly homeless due to some shady dealings by our landlord at the time. My older sister and I were able to be approved to buy a home so it never came to that, but it was close.

Fast forward a few years and I met my husband. We ended up moving out of that house to start our life. I am still on the mortgage, but make no payments or have any claim in that property. Everything was going great. I got a big promotion. I bought a modest, new (to me) vehicle, my credit cards were empty, I even cosigned a loan for my sister to buy a car when a tree fell and smashed hers(she’s never missed a payment).

Then covid hit. I realized for the first time how miserable I was at my job at the time. We were in an okay financial situation, so my husband let me take some time off from working so I could find myself in August of 2021. That’s when my life started to crumble.

I only took a couple of months off before I started working again. One day, while at work, I had intense pain in my ankle. I went to a walk in clinic, they threw some pills at me and sent me on my way. Two months later the pain was so bad, I could barely walk, so I went to the ER the day after Thanksgiving 2021. They sent me to an orthopedic surgeon. Luckily we caught what was actually wrong before I lost my foot. The doctor told me that I was going to have to be in a cast, starting 2 days before Christmas. I hated the idea but what choice did I have. Unfortunately my life crashed harder before I even got to that point. My wonderful, loving momma passed away a week before Christmas. It was so unexpected, I cried for days, just heart broken. I went into a deep depression, unable to do much. My husband had to force me to eat. I had insomnia so bad I would barely sleep for days. On top of all that, I got covid. December and January were some of the lowest points for me.

In February I started working from home for Carvana. I finally found something I enjoyed, or so I thought. In May, they had a massive layoff, and I was let go unexpectedly. I took out some personal loans to get us by, as I had accumulated some medical debt and my husband was the only one paying bills. I went 6 weeks without a paycheck, using our credit cards to survive.

I am back to work now, and it is going well, but I’m struggling to catch up. My husband is trying the best he can, but doesn’t qualify as a cosigner for me and we still have regular bills to pay as well. I’ve tried to get approved for several debt consolidation loans, and I don’t even need much in the grand scheme of things. I only really need about $6000. I’ve been told my DTI is too high, even though I do not pay on the mortgage or my sister’s car. No one will look past those things to help me out, even though consolidating the debt would lower my monthly payment exponentially. My sister is not in a place where she can refinance to take me off of those things. I do everything I can for everyone without anything in return and I try not to ask for help, but I am desperately trying not to drown. I could really use a life preserver at this point. I appreciate anyone reading this and anyone who considers helping. It would mean more than I can explain. I will always try to pay it forward.

Elderly Woman Must Stop Sheriff’s Sale

Please please help. I am faced with an emergency and will be homeless at the end of the month if I cannot raise the funds to re-instate my mortgage. I am elderly and on my own, having lost my 92 yr. old dad after caring for him during his last years. It’s just me, the dog and 2 cats. I had a great job prior to the lockdowns a few years back but my place of employment went out of business. Lack of income did not prevent the mortgage company from sending their monthly bill, but once I fell behind, they demanded the back payments in full before I could resume regular payments. This got worse over time and now unless I can make the mortgage company happy by the 28th, my house will be sold out from under me. I am frantic. This is my family home, where I grew up and where my entire life has been. To start over means leaving my pets behind as local apartments no longer allow them– and they are my family now. I know there are plenty of folks suffering and having to beg for money just to survive. I don’t want a new car, a vacation or even medical attention for issues that seem to be cropping up with age. I just want to keep this roof over my head– and my pets– for whatever time I have left. Please, I hope you can help– and God bless you!

Help finish tiny house

Hi my name is Stephanie Croff, I am currently living in Cumberland , MD. I have been through the worse 4 years off my life. I currently reside with my best friend/boyfriend who was my caretaker for 6 years. I moved here with him from Delta, PA. The reason I moved was to try and put my past in the past. I was married to a man who betrayed my marriage, and my love. In that process of betrayal and not knowing he didn’t love me after 18 years of marriage. My best friend. My daughter who I miss more than life itself. Was also crushed by the man she considered her Father, even though he was her step daddy. She decided to end her life by putting a bullet to her head, 2 days before her 35th birthday. JANUARY 12,2019 AT 10 PM MY LIFE ENDED TOO. SHE DIED INSTANTLY PRAISE GOD. She was a smart girl 3 degrees. She was on deans list with 3.9 got her degree in Mortuary Science, Early childhood education, and IT Tech. She self taught Web designing and photography, she did full figure Cheesecake Modeling. She didn’t drink, smoke or do drugs. She felt betrayed as I did by this man who supposedly loved us. AN US States MARINE, is what hurt the most, from a Marine family both Mom And Dad. We took in a man who was homeless to help my daughter take care of me after knee and rotator cuff surgery. He had been dealt a lousy hand too. He was a stay at home dad with 4 children, who also home schooled like me. His wife an RN took the kids and left him because she was not happy. Leaving him destitute in a home with no money being foreclosed on. We met him and he moved in chef, housekeeper, nurse caretaker. My husband was busy going to the gym and socializing on social media with the plastic people. He dropped the ball on Trust,Honesty and Communication with my daughter and I. He basically loved the gym. Legos, Dungeon and Dragons,Roleplaying and running marathons more than his family. We were cast aside. She was devastated to find out he never wanted to be a dad or husband to me. Nineteen years too late for me to find this out. After he knew my first husband had stabbed me , poisoned me, beat me and finally shot me for me to leave him after 23 years. A lifetime of destruction for my child and I. He was an alcoholic anddrug addict.So I asked him to leave our residence we went through covid and lost our house. Now I am 66 old Broken and worn out,with health issues. My boyfriend is trying to build a tiny to live in. I am moving back to Pennsylvania. He will be homeless if I cannot help to have the tiny house finished by winter. It needs stone for driveway, some excavation work, it will not have electric or running water. But he can handle that with propane or solar and a generator. Please help with materials and manpower to get it under roof and livable for him for winter. My daughter and I did so much community work when she was alive. My Facebook is proof. Now like My Name is Earl I am praying and trusting in God for help with this situation, Please!!!! He is a good man and he deserves help. He carried the ball when my husband dropped it and my daughter Arika adored him. His wife took his kids and his life. But he saved mine because the night Arika took her life, HE REMOVED THE GUN SO I WOULD LIVE AND NOT JOIN HER. THANK YOU

Down but not out!❤

Hello my name is Tameka Harvey a mother of 3 boys who don’t live in poverty but deserve a better managed life. I divorced in 2018 and had to figure out a way to still give them a good life. Not extravagant but “good” I moved my smaller ones to Solon Ohio to be a part of one of the best school systems in the world. I moved from a home to a 2 bedroom apt that was really more than I could afford at the time but I wouldn’t let that defeat me. I have been here now going on 4 years and have maxed out my credit to maintain. I am just looking for help because now I am behind on rent and risk of having to move my children. I also have a son in college and have recently spent a lot on real estate school just trying to get some extra income. Which is not going great right now in this market. I have credit card debt a car I took a title loan on to move my children out almost 4 years ago and it feels like they started the loan over. I’m not asking for all my debt to be repaid just enough to get out of the hole, 5000.00 will help a lot so when I get a paycheck I will actually see it. This is my first time ever doing this, but I feel like I’m drowning and I have exhausted all other possibilities. I work VERY hard everyday and I just wanna feel like it’s not in vain. No matter my financial state right now I can’t let my kids know we are slowly sinking. Please remember contributing to us is helping an entire family stay above water. I’m so grateful for all your consideration.

Help with savings

Hello,

I have been saving for a while to move from a really bad apartment. The neighborhood is terrible and this was all I could afford. My landlord is very aggressive and racist. My family can not help, the only family that could help barely have enough money for their own bills. My job only pays $10 an hour, I’ve been looking other places but I don’t have any experience and keep getting denied. I only need $3,000 more so that I can move and be able to pay at least 2 months rent. I really could use the help from any person willing.

thank you

Was Let Go From My Job and Lost My Place

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for taking a look and helping if you can.

Back in July I was let go from my job for no reason. Even after asking why I was let go they couldn’t give me a reason. I was flabbergasted, I did so much for the company I worked for and would work off the clock doing extras for the property since I lived on the property as well. I have been going through so much dealing with problems my ex-husband was causing, using all my extra money to buy my son everything he will need including his dorm fees to go out of state to college the 25th of this month and the got hit with my job letting me go and loosing my home since my home was a part of my job income. For the last 2 weeks my service dog and I have been staying in a motel so I wouldn’t have to live in a car because the place I had lined up to rent the owner backed out on me. Right now I am such an emotional wreck. I have $23 left to my name until my unemployment phone interview on the 31st of this month then have to wait for however long it takes them to get me my back money. If I can’t get help with monet starting tomorrow I will have to figure out how to explain to my son that I won’t be able to get him to college next week as planned, I will have to sleep in my car, I will lose my storage with all my belongings, I will loose everything.

Now, admiting I need help and asking for it is really hard for me to do because I am the one that always helps others before I help myself. Just like last night while standing in line at the 99 cent store there was an older lady that was $8 short because her card wasn’t working. I knew I really couldn’t afford it but, that didn’t stop me. I took my bank card went up to her and said please let me get this for you and help you out. She was speechless and had tears of joy in her eyes, so even though in my head I knew I couldn’t afford to really help like that I was happy I did anyways.

Please now I’m asking for help, I can’t tell my son that I can’t get him to college after he worked so hard in school and kept all A’s all 4 years of high school and I really can’t live in my car it’s way to scary this day and age. I will pay it forward when I get back up on my feet.

God bless you all and thank you for taking the time to read.

Money For Life

My name is Megan and I will start by saying I don’t like asking for money. I’ve been living from job to job, living with my parents and just trying to get back on my feet for a while now and I have never asked anyone around me for money. Whether I get donations or not, I will make it work!

However, any help I can get would be so so greatly appreciated!

Any money donated will be put towards fixing my car (it needs an oil change, new breaks and has a check engine light on), paying my student loan off finally and hopefully helping my girlfriend and I to get through life. My girlfriend is starting college in September and we are trying to rent a place together! The rent is $800/month and I would need some extra money to get to where she is as well.

My student loans are at about $3800 as well. I’m not sure how much my car will take to fix as I haven’t had the money to even get it checked out.

I recently started a new job, it’s my third one in about 6 months. I am trying to find a good job and be able to support us so hard, but my last job has given me some bad trauma. The job I’m in right now is taking calls and it gives me extreme anxiety and panic attacks. I’m trying to push through it because I know I need the money, but it’s also extremely hard on my mental state.

I know I’m asking a lot, and I honestly hate to do it. Regardless of whether anyone donates to me, I want to thank you for taking the time to read this.

I appreciate any and all help I can get! ♡♡♡

Positivity Needed & Help To Fix My House

I’d like to start by thanking you for your time to read my story. I have been struggling for awhile now and feel like the world is closing in around me. I am constantly trying to better mine and my family’s life but nothing seems to work out and I keep getting buried in a deeper hole. I am in so much debt and have a ton of bills that need to be paid. On top of that I have a list of issues that need to be taken care of. One of the more urgent ones being our house that is rotting and falling apart and we just don’t have the money to fix it. Five years ago my husband and I had twins. We decided that I would quit my job and stay home with them since daycare would cost us more than what I made. Being on a single income for five years and with the rising costs of everything, we have drained our savings account and racked up a lot of debt. Besides raising twins, I have tried to sell items online for extra income but I barely made anything. Also now that my kids are a little bit older I have been trying to find a part time work from home job for the past several months. I’ve applied to so many job listings and keep getting turned down. My husband works 50+ hours a week to support our family. He tries so hard but he also suffers from severe anxiety and has panic attacks which makes every day a challenge for him to get through. Everything we do is just not enough and we are drowning. Our house is falling apart and needs to be fixed. All the wood trim and soffits are rotting and all the wood siding is rotting and the paint chipping off. The chimney is cracking and pieces of the bricks are breaking off. It would be thousands and thousands of dollars to get all of that fixed so we decided to do the work ourselves. We have to mortar and seal the bricks on the chimney. We also have to replace all the rotting wood on our house, scrape all the old paint off, and repaint the entire house. Even doing it ourselves the cost of materials are a few thousand dollars. We are trying to get this done before winter comes or the snow and ice buildup is going to cause more damage. My husband spends his days off working on our house and is just exhausted. I do what I can each day but I also have medical conditions. I have arthritis in my joints and fibromyalgia. It makes it really difficult to get physical work done but I push myself because I know we need this done before winter. I also have severe anxiety and panic attacks that physically and mentally makes me feel sick. We are trying so hard to give our kids a safe home to live in and it just feels like the world is against us. We have so many issues to deal with before winter or it’s just going to get worse. Our furnace is old and isn’t working right and needs to be fixed. Our car needs brakes, rotors, and tires and isn’t safe to drive with our kids. Every month I don’t know how we are going to even pay our bills. If I could only get a job to slowly help us dig out of this hole. But in the meantime we need a safe and warm home for our kids. We are willing and determined to put in the work ourselves but we still need supplies to get the job done. We would appreciate anything you are willing to help us with. We are drained and feeling like nothing ever works out. We need help to give our children a safe house and don’t know where else to turn. Thank you for everything you do for people in need. You are a blessing in many peoples lives and the world needs more people like you. Thanks again and I truly hope you have a wonderful day.

Single Mother needing financial help

Hello everyone, I am a 27 year old single mother to a 6 year beautiful daughter. I work 3 jobs, and never seem to catch a break. I have recently became homeless and I have been left with major debt that is not mine. Here is a small back story for you. My daughter and myself moved in with my grandmother 3 months ago after we were left alone with nothing, very unexpectedly. My grandmother, my mother, and my uncle all live in this household. My ex-husband decided one day to pack all of his stuff and leave our family after 10 years together and start a new family with someone else. He has completely forgotten about our daughter, never asks to see her, talk to her, take her out, or to even simply ask how she is doing. He shows no care nor emotion for our daughter what so ever. I would like to also let everyone that he was cheating me on and off for the last 7 years. When he left our family, I had no choice but to move in with my grandmother. I personally needed help getting back on my feet. Between daycare during the summer, the debt that is not mine they I was left with and having to pay for, all expenses that I was having to pay to make sure my daughter and myself had what we needed has left me broken, miserable, and stressed out to the max. As stated in the beginning, I am working 3 part time jobs. I barely have time to see and spend time with my daughter anymore. After all of the bills are paid and the debt I was left with are paid for the month, I am left with nothing, which in return puts me in a position of having the borrow money to make it to work for the week, buy groceries for us two, all hygiene and personal care items for my daughter and myself. My grandmother and my mother would help me as much as they could once I moved in, and I appreciate them very much, and appreciate everything they have done to help my daughter and myself get back on our feet. Everything was great for the few months I was there. I received a text message from my grandmother 2 weeks ago which had stated, “I cannot help you any longer, you will need to be out by 07-21-2022.” I was confused, hurt, and even more stressed out after that. I still have not received an explanation as to why they wanted us out of the house. I had to make arrangements for a place to stay and a place to put our items, all in a short amount of time. I found a storage until for our items we cannot bring with us, but we are still looking for a home. We are currently going back and fourth between my friends houses and sleeping on their sofas. I have put my application in with HUD, for assistance on housing. The current wait list is over a 12 months. I explained my situation to the nice desk lady and she put me on emergency housing needed, but reminded me that even though I am moved to the top, the wait list is still 6-8 months before I am approved and found a home or an apartment. I cannot keep sleeping between friends houses on their sofas with my daughter. I feel like such a failure, in life and a failure as a mother. I am failing her and disappointing her every day for not being able to provide for everything like I used to be able to. I was on google searching for ways to get a small personal loan to help pay some of this debt off I was left with and save the remaining left over for what we absolutely needed. I was continually being denied for poor credit and not enough income, then I ran into this website and thought I would give this a try and see if I can find help for my daughter and myself. She will be needing school clothes and school supplies for school starting at the beginning of September as well, which I am worried I won’t be able to afford without having to miss a payment for a bill. She will be in first grade this year! I am asking for help, I am begging for help. My ex has left me with all of this credit card debt, a personal loan, and vehicle debt, all together and in total is just under $10,000. Which I have to make payments monthly for all of it, or my personal credit will get ruined and I will get charged late fees and interest. I am looking and asking for help with money to help me pay off some of this debt, to help me relieve some of this financial stress and be able to care for my daughter and be happy for her. All I want is what’s best for my daughter, and that is for me to pay off some of this debt I was left with, find an apartment to rent or a house to rent until HUD lets me know it’s my turn on the waiting list for a place, buy groceries and not worry about how much money I will have left for fuel money for work and for her daycare and to also be able to afford her school items and school clothing. I have no help from family anymore, I am all alone and working myself to death just to pay the debt off and feed ourselves and have nothing left afterwards. Please help us, any amount is so helpful and we are so greatly appreciative for anyone who is willing to help us. Thank you.

If you would like to donate and help my daughter and myself, any amount given is very helpful, very appreciated and we thank you so much! My PayPal link is

Tuition & Debt Assistance

Asking other people for money is basically my last resort in life, but I’m not getting any younger and desperation is certainly sinking in. I don’t need $20 for a pair of shoes, or $100 for rent. I need thousands in a last leap of faith in pursuit of higher education and success in my life.

Currently, I am unemployed, but for the past nearly ten years I’ve been functioning as an independent contractor. Working from home in this way barely brought in any money, and I’ve been living with my chronically ill mother (she is chair ridden, at best these days) while recovering from a horrible divorce, and coping with my own damn near crippling agoraphobia. Severe depression, PTSD, and a pretty big lack in self-confidence is also part of my personal story – but if I were to go into all of that we would be here for days listening to my mess. Long story short, I have a lot of issues. I don’t consider my issues to be any worse or more severe than the average American’s… but they have made my life feel like a black hole with no way out in sight.

At the beginning of this year I started applying for jobs, hoping to find something stable and secure so that I could get some health insurance, and start moving forward to fix some of my issues. Despite the lack of people working and tons of jobs available… people just don’t seem to want to hire me. I tried keeping the positions I applied to remote. Part of this is due to me having horrible teeth (my ex husband wouldn’t allow me to visit a Dentist when I was married), and nothing ruins a job interview like a smile from a horror movie monster. I’m guessing people don’t take independent contractors seriously, but to be fair, my resume/CV isn’t the most impressive at first glance either. Especially at my age, in a country where your job is one of the most important things about you socially.

One of my passions, like hardcore addictions, in life has always been horses and the equine industry. On one side of my family, my mother’s side, there were horses around but I could never afford one of my own. When my parents divorced and I bounced back and forth between the two I was a problem child with a multitude of issues. Horses were something I continued to see but my involvement was limited, my passion at an early age ended up shoved into the back of my mind as something that would be a pipe dream. Something I could never achieve. These days, I sit around and wonder why I’d been so stupid as a teen and why I didn’t just pursue where my heart was from the beginning. Instead, I failed at college (twice, mind you – grades were great, home situation was bad/unstable), failed at marriage, with minimal parental support and pretty much no education where actual life skills were concerned.

Long story short, cut to the current year, 2022. I’m in my 30s, no health insurance whatsoever, I’ve self-helped myself enough to be able to go to the grocery store (agoraphobia permitting), am unemployed, watching one of my parents deteriorate rapidly due to disease, I just lost my best friend of 15 years (my dog) last month, and I’m realizing… I have got to get the hell out of here. My long term goals include eventually moving overseas, and working with horses, particularly in barn management – preferably in rescue. To do that, however, I realize I’ll need to take a crack at higher education once more. Hearing that a few of my friends that are even older than I am, have recently procured their own Bachelors degrees encouraged me to look into a Bachelors of Equine Science – where my heart has always truly been. For once, I’m feeling like that might be the right step in the right direction for where I want to go… but I don’t anticipate receiving financial aid while already owing prior student loans, and having other debts as well. Without employment, I have no way of funding my educational goals and no help from family in the matter whatsoever either. Despite diligently working to change my situation, it’s apparent that I need additional help to get to where I want to be in life.

It doesn’t take much to feel bad in this current day and age, looking at the state of the world and the economy… and how it seems like it’s going to get even worse. For this reason, I am reaching out to request help. Any assistance that you could give would be greatly appreciated and an absolute godsend.

I’m sorry if this proposal was a little disjointed, and all over the place. I’ve never asked for help like this before, and I want to say thanks for your consideration, and for giving my request the time of day.

Urgent need of anything you can give – I Need car repairs to drive to job interviews

I am currently living below the poverty line, stuck staying with my parents who are also very poor. I am struggling to find a job and especially now since my car has been out of commission for a full month. The vehicle has failed inspection due to three errors that I am assuming will cost me at the very minimum a few hundred plus labor just to get fixed, not to mention the cost of towing the vehicle to get it sent to the repair shop, likely adding another hundred on top of that. It is illegal to drive on the road until it can pass a state inspection, so the financial stress from that is piling up. I cannot drive to job interviews with my own car and my dad’s car is also now out of commission from his own issues he has to repair, partially from me having to drive it all the time instead of my own, so I am completely without any transportation to get to and from anywhere. Luckily he is retired so he does not need a vehicle each day, but I am in desperate need to get my own car to be driveable again in order to get a job, and I cannot use my mom’s car since she needs that to get to and from her job. I have severe mental disorders too, which makes public transportation out of the question for me, so what I am saying is, that I am really trapped right where I am until I can get my vehicle to get back on the road. It is becoming an absolutely helpless situation.

I have been out of work for the past few years due to a separate physical health issue unrelated to the mental conditions, as we live in a 120 year old crumbling house, riddled with toxic dust and probably asbestos from the exposed walls that exist in every room, I have difficulty breathing and sleeping at night rendering me generally week, which has kept me from working, but I have begun airing out my room to breathe best I can, and i need a job ASAP to get out of this house and find an apartment on my own to improve my health, but I definitely need my car to pass inspection to be able to physically go to any job interviews I will have coming up. As you can see from the photo I’ve attached, I have basically no money at all. I have been doing online surveys in an attempt to keep my account afloat to pay off my credit card debt, but it sadly doesn’t pay me anywhere near enough to handle a large expense such as a car repair. Also attached, is the invoice of my car failing inspection. 2 of the three codes are vague and the inspectors had no idea what the codes meant and told me to send the car to an actual repair shop instead of the quick oil change place. I can’t even get past the cost it would be to tow the thing, let alone whatever insanely high price the garage is likely to charge me.
