Need money for new laptop!

Hi,

My name is Amy, I’m in my early 30’s and live in NE Lincolnshire. I moved up here several years ago to be closer to a few family members and am originally from the South of the country.

I have severe social anxiety and depression, and often isolate myself for days (this lockdown has been easier to deal with because of that, I’ll be honest). I also suffer from chronic fatigue which has damaged my immune system and leaves me vulnerable to COVID 19, I live alone and due to anxiety issues find it very hard to use the phone and so rely on email to contact mental health services (well, I have a hamster, but he’s not much for conversation and can’t be sent for shopping). I’d recently been getting better with going out and meeting people, and have been volunteering at a local market garden where I have made new friends for the first time since moving up here year ago, and with therapy I’ve been having less anxiety attacks and starting to value my life more.

I still primarily communicate with the world via the internet, and a lot via gaming online with friends from my hometown. Unfortunately, my laptop is dying at the moment. It overheats quickly, the screen frequently cuts out and it is not able to  run most programs, with the ones it will open often crashing and freezing. It’s around 9 years old and is mostly held together with prayers and wishes. But at the moment is the only real link I have to family and friends, as well as my doctor and therapist during this time.

I’m hoping to raise roughly £300-500 to afford a medium quality laptop that will allow me to keep in touch with people critical to my recovery and keep on track with my mental health goals.

Ultimately I hope to be able to get back into the world, and in the future return to school to study for a degree, and I’ve been working hard and moving forward, but the continuing crashes and breakdowns have been taking a toll on my mental health, and heightening my anxiety to levels reminiscent of the beginning of my journey. I am terrified that losing this lifeline will cause me to slide backwards and undo months of successes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I know that times are tight at the moment, but thank you for reading anyway and I wish you the best of luck in your endeavours.

522 Dollars = Happiness

Hi, my name is Vlad Pyasetskiy and im a middle schooler seeking a couple hundred dollars to build me a go kart out of this pink power wheels toy mustang, I’ve been collecting money for a while now but I just haven’t been able to scrape together enough to get everything I need to build it, I’ve collected about 130 dollars but that doesn’t even cover the cost of the engine, I’ve been asking around the neighborhood trying to help people and raise myself more money but with coronavirus and my stature nobodies interested in my help. I’d say I’m a pretty independent person and I don’t like asking for money but at this point I’ve tried everything in my power to try and raise this money, my family isn’t very wealthy so I decided that I was gonna raise the money myself but I see now that it’s much harder than I thought. I’ve included a list of pretty much everything I need to build this, if you do decide to invest in me I would like to share the project progress with you and send updates until the project is finished. I’ll be very grateful for even a couple dollars and I will definitely pay it forward when ill personally be financially stable.

Anyways thank you for reading this whole thing and here’s my paypal link PayPal.me/Pyasetskiy , have a good day and don’t get coronavirus :)

 

Here’s a video of some youtubers building it, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HHnAjCb3Qfc , I wouldn’t make it that high tech id make a much simpler version but you can see just how fun it looks

Just a private trader close to give up

Dear philanthropists around the world, especially the ones involved in financial markets trading, I need your help to get back to work, as trading lately was my only paying job.

I made some really bad decisions and my account got almost erased by the sudden drop at the same time of australian dollar, english pound, New Zealand dollar and brent as I was short on Swiss franc and japanese yen. I will use your money to refund my trading account.

I’m trading since January 2017 and in the latest 10 months I was able to obtain awesome results as you can see in my personal portfolio chart https://www.myfxbook.com/members/XmZero_money/mercalli-world/3527984

I live in the southeast part of Italy but I’m truly open minded and I want to travel all around the world, as I’m an hungry for knowledge and I truly love to meet new people and different cultures/points of view.

I was able to learn different skills as a self-taught since I grew my passion for the internet’s sea of things, trading was one of them, I’m a webmaster too with more than 30 websites published and without taking any academic courses I was able to develop a mobile application fully working and published onto the App and Play store. I have many more skills, but I don’t want to bother you anymore about myself, my english skills are just one of them (I’m pretty sure this message contains a lot of errors, but I always try to improve myself day by day :P).

My mood right now is under the shoes if it can give you an idea. I’m an atheist too, so I cannot find relief in anything if not in myself, in my mother and brother and in my close friends.

I know this is not truly the right moment to ask for money as the big pandemics crisis is evolving around the world, but if anyone from the Bridgewater hedge fund or any other big name is here, I hope to breach your heart with this not moving but sad request. I know the sum I’m asking to you is just a small changes for you, so I will try even if it means to be ridiculous in people’s eyes.

If you sustain me I could be able to pay you back when I’ll be back at work as a trader, because I truly believe in myself and in my skills, otherwise I have really to decide what to do with my life later, because I feel a little bit tired and I live in a corrupted society that doesn’t stimulate me to the good at all.

Hope to hear from you and be able to connect with you later to exchange ideas, feelings and, who knows, happy moments together as my will is to travel but I can host you as well in my wonderful city Catania as well…let’s just wait for the Covid-19 eradication (about which I’m pretty sure we will make it soon as a whole united world).

Thank you philanthropists and traders,

Riccardo <3

Under water 2020

To whom this may concern,
My name is Helen Rupe, and I am writing to you regarding not only
the hardship that I have been cursed to endure, but also to say how
much of a blessing it was to finally be able to find an organization like
yourself, that are wanting to help and lift people up. As I read through
some of the stories of people and their hardship, I felt like I almost
fit in, I’ve always managed my life the way I can, but the last three
years have simply left me broken, but it felt good knowing I’m not
struggling alone, like there really are people going through hardship
too.

At the age of 16, I had never made the plan to be a single
mother, but twenty seven years later and after having both of my sons,
I couldn’t picture it any other way, I’ve managed the best I could with
little to no help, even without a single child support check, I still did it
alone for my boys. So, with two boys and no assistance, I always
worked, so that I could ensure a great future for my boys.
I have always been a certified cook, it’s what I love to do.
Although I enjoyed most of my time working in local ma and pa
restraints, the downfall is that most cooks don’t get to receive any
pensions, 401K contributions, or many other benefits. At the time I
didn’t mind, but benefits would have come in handy when I learned I
had severe carpal tunnel. After undergoing two operations, I learned
that not only did it not work, but my nerve damage has worsened to the
point of being told I may never possess the capability of using my
hands the same way again. Being told I am not able to work anymore
was completely devastating, so being the stubborn woman that I am, I
still tried working with absolutely no success. I was forced to leave the
only thing that I’ve ever known, I was officially considered disabled.
Two of the toughest situations I have had to deal with were the day I had to leave the kitchen, and the two year struggle of fighting for
disability assistance.

After the long two year and two month struggle, I
finally received a positive verdict. But reality sunk in when I had to
figure out how I was going to manage to recover from two years and
two months of no income. Almost a $3,000 income difference is what I
have to handle, for the first time in my life I am considered low
income. Due to such a difference in income, I was forced to watch my
vehicle become repossessed and I’m drowning in mortgage payments.
My boys and I worked very hard to find out forever home, so it
breaks my heart feeling like I will have to be forced to tell them that
the home we built, together to last forever, may not be forever
anymore. The last thing I want is to have my boys worry about me even
more then they have too. My boys are my everything, and with them
almost having to say goodbye to me already this year due to a life-
threatening injury and illness, I can’t bear to see my boys like that
again.

I began feeling ill December 2019 and After being admitted and
in critical condition in caused by severe pancreatitis, at the start of
the new year I underwent Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-
Pancreatography (ERCP). After two days I finally got released to finish
recovery at home, and I started feeling like my old self again. Until
reality struck once again, because what I came home to was a stack of
bills a mile high and once again I feel like I get three steps forward
but all of a sudden I’m knocked two steps back again. I’m known for
being a fighter, I fight through every obstacle that is thrown my way
the best way i can. But sometimes, even the best fighters need help
too.

In conclusion, I would just like to thank you again for the
opportunities that you bless upon individuals struggling through lifes hardship battles. Although assistance would be one of the biggest
blessing I could receive to help rebuild what I have lost, I still would
just like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving
individuals the second chance at life, and the boost that they need to
save them and grant them comfort in life. Your organization has truly
touched my heart.Thank You
Sincerely,
Helen Rupe

Help Me Get Out and About

This is more a wish then an absolute need. I currently have a small income which covers all my primary expenses (with a wee bit left over). I eat well and dress nice.  I have no car (I carpool mostly). I live in a descent, albeit not large, apartment. I spend a lot of time thinking and conceptualizing things related to music, finance, religion, politics, relationships, and comedy.

What is missing: public exposure.  I lived in Los Angeles and connected from a distance with people and celebrities in Hollywood, joining the Screen Actors Guild. One of my grandfathers is from upstate New York, the other is from Virginia (born in Washington DC). While I relate to these three locations intellectually, I currently do not have the means to relate in person.  I sense a need to be more visibly present in the affairs of the world. I know I can help people. I am a problem solver by nature (personality type INTP). And while I like a certain degree of isolation, too much is unhealthy. I connect to my immediate community in all the ways I can (church, internet, clubhouse, caretaker, etc.), but the issues and ideas I am occupied with daily are generally too foreign to their thinking to be worthy of much discussion.  They are generally too occupied with how things have been to care much about how things should or could be. I receive SSI for mental health reasons, but this only covers the most basic needs. Things like travel are limited. I am not freely able to mingle with those who can benefit from my insight. It’s as if my influence affects them the way a dream would, not a face to face encounter. I need to travel to the places my ideas can be “plugged in,” so to speak.

I would like money I receive to go for travel expenses primarily (car, airplane, Uber) and lodging. I would like to understand and be better understood by the people that are on the frontier of creating reality – that are making decisions that affect us in fundamental ways.  I wish to personally be involved in the destiny of our country and planet – particularly in the eight dimensions of well-being (intellectually, emotionally, physically, spiritually, environmentally, socially, financially, and occupationally).

I still am working on carving out a niche for myself occupationally.  I relate to some degree to many occupations and have experience in multiple job settings.  I feel however, that I need to be traveling and connecting to people that see and think the way I do (California, NY, DC, etc.) Living in the community I am in (Walla Walla, WA) is nice for reflecting on things, but occupationally I don’t fit here.  It’s the sidelines for me.

I don’t necessarily need a lot of money up front.  Any amount can and will get me moving. This is about reaching out and putting down some roots into locations that can benefit from my presence. This may take time.

I’m still trying to understand the concept of “pay it forward,” but I do sense that this whole thing is going to inevitably benefit those I come to connect with.

Thanks for time. Wishing you the best,

Ryan

Abuse and hope

Hello, my name is Robin Dhaly and I’m a 20 year old. My parents are abusive, physically and psychologically. They often beat me and say degrading and very hurtful things. One time, my mother beat me with a broom because I spilled some dish soap she asked me to get her. Another time, she poured boiling water on me because I wasn’t paying attention to my priest.

I’ve dealt with this for two decades…they often beat me every day and sometimes just because they were angry or because they wanted to “discipline me”. My dad even told me, “What’s the point of raising you if you’re not gonna give me money?” But one day, I met an amazing women. Her name is Holly and she lights up my world. She’s smart, sarcastic and funny. I truly love her more than anything.

We’ve in a relationship now and she makes me happier than anything else in the world. I want to spend my life with her. So I left my abusive family to try to live with my amazing girlfriend on the other side of the country. I made it there and I thought my dreams had finally come true. I had an amazing and understanding landlord/roommate who did the best he could to help.

Unfortunately, it didn’t work out and I quickly ran out of money. My family found me and I was forced to go back due to financial hardship. I told them I want to live with my girlfriend but they refused to provide assistance financially and mocked me. I have been trying my hardest to save up money so I can move back but no jobs want me as I don’t yet have a degree…I had to quit college to be able to run away. I just wanna be away from my hostile and abusive family and be with my girlfriend.

I have been dreaming of this for so long, to be able to be free and happy. To not be worried everyday if I will be hurt, to be able to actually see and feel my girlfriend in person, to truly be happy and safe. To know what it feels like to wake up next to a person you love and cherish and know you won’t be beat that day.

My savings goal is $10,000 and if you can provide anything at all, I’d be eternally grateful. Please help me be free and happy and safe. Thank you.

Help Me Go Visit My Family

ticket info.PNGcar rental info.PNG

It has been a really though year and it is only the 3rd month of 2020.
My name is Andreina and I am a 23 year old female student. Last year was one of the tough years for me because a lot happen in such a short amount of time. I moved to Canada in 2018 from Curacao to Study and get a degree. I was a big change but I knew that I was working toward my dream. I felt home sick a lot especially because I am alone and I do not have any family members here. College is going great and I have a 4.0 GPA. I also work part time to pay my bills but it is hard. Because, I go to college 5 times a week and work 3 days a week so I basically busy to whole week. But that does not take my mind of everything that has happening and how it is affection me. During the month of April, I found out that my mother had Lupus. Lupus is a long-term autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system becomes hyperactive and attacks normal, healthy tissue. Since that day a lot has change and I was very worried because I do not want anything to happen to hear. She has to go to the doctor a lot and takes a lot of medication. She is doing good but someday she does not feel well and she is in a lot of pain. I pray everyday that good can watch over her and her health. the 2nd incident happed in July. I got a call from my older sister telling me that my younger brother had a stroke and he went in comma. That affect me a lot especially because I was not there. He got worse and a part of his braid died. At this moment the doctors knew that he would not make it so told us start saying our goodbyes. I was not there and that was very hard for me because I wanted to be there. My father was waiting on his paycheck to buy me a ticket. He past the day that I got my ticket so I did not got a chance to say goodbye. I was literally flying the back home the next day and I told him to wait for me but he didn’t make it. I know that I did not process that properly because I do not like thinking about that because I think it is really unfair. he was only 19 and full of life. My life kept taking turns and the 3rd incident happen in October/November. This one is more personal and I can not talk about it. All of this added up. I went home for the Holiday in December and I had the best time ever. Since I came back a lot has change. I notice that I am more depressed than usual and I think that my depression is kicking back in. I am scared because I get a lot of strange thoughts and a rollercoaster of emotion when I am going through it.
I am scared that something might happened and I do not have the courage to tell my family what is happening cause my mom is already sick and we have been through a lot.
The reason for this letter is to ask for financial help so that I can go home for at least 2 days so I can hug, talk a be in the company of my family. I know that there are more request that may be more urgent that mine but I really need to go home. I do not want this depression to get the best of me.
I will finish college in April and My parent are saving up to come in June for my graduation. right now, I am not financially stable especially because all of the money that I earn working goes toward rent, transportation and food. Please help me out so that I can go home for at least 2 to 3 days. I will either miss a few days of college or work but I know that it all will be worth it.
I am asking for 1500 Canadian Dollars or 1000 us Dollar that includes the roundtrip plane ticket from Toronto Pearson Airport to Curacao Int. Hato and also some money so that I can rent a car a drive home from the airport. I am just asking for enough money to pay my trip and transportation. I will try and take care of anything else that I need. I really need this donations so that I can get myself back together and get the strength that I need.
I hope that I wrote enough info and I hope that I can get help as soon as possible because, I am not willing to let my depression get the best of me.
Thank you so much for trying to help me and all the other people that you might have help.
If you want to make a donation

TRAVELING ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO CHASE MY DREAMS AND BE WITH THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.

My Adventure to Oregon

Here’s my story of love, almost loss, adventure, and hope!

Over the course of a year and few months or so I had fallen in love with my best friend. Our love story is one that I wouldn’t mind telling over and over again. I am proud of what I have and who I have.
We met when we both worked at the same restaurant, I actually trained him on his very first day. We instantly became friends, sharing the same sense of humor, we enjoyed doing the same things, and car rides blaring music was definitely our go-to.  I had known for a while that I had fallen for this man… he had no idea, go figure, he was so oblivious. I met Christian in 2017, over the course of time we had both realized how much we could share with the other person and how much we trusted this other individual. One night April 3rd 2019 he barged into my house and told me, did not ask, he told me I was his girlfriend, we made it official the next day. April 4th that’s our date. Over the course of the past year we have met each other’s families, traveled together, made many memories,  began living with each other, and experienced the highs and the lows together.
On January 6th of 2020 I lost my job as a bartender at a little bar in the town I lived in. I woke up one day to a message from the owner of the bar saying “I hope everyone is having a good day, The bar is officially closed for business, I’m sorry I cannot afford to keep it up and running anymore.” This threw a wrench into our relationship for sure. I was relying on him and he was doing the absolute best he could to take care of us with the money he was making. He did a wonderful job. I couldn’t have asked for a better man to step up when he did. However, everything began getting a little harder after that.
I began applying for jobs instantly, I bartend and serve, not ideal, but I do it and I do it well. I enjoy taking care of other people and I enjoy making drinks and serving food, some of us were built for it.  I applied for jobs left and right and it just so happens that it was slow season for the service industry. No big sports games were on, taxes hadn’t hit yet, and the weather was complete garbage, these things do take a toll on those of us who work in the service industry. Needless to say, I went almost two months without a job, many days I had to borrow money to put gas in a car that wasn’t mine to try and go get a job each day. Gotta do what you gotta do, for sure.
Late January came and I still hadn’t found a job at that time and it was taking a toll on my relationship. I struggle with depression and anxiety really badly, to the point where I wouldn’t get out of bed, I was eating out of control, gained over 22 pounds in a month time span… I was spiraling. Christian tried to be understanding, he tried to get me out of bed and it never worked. None of my clothes were fitting, I had no money to go anywhere or do anything, and I definitely didn’t have enough for my basic bills. January 17th I almost lost my relationship because out of that dark time in my life. I lashed out on the person who helped me the most. I cried about all the things I was going through and never stopped to think about what I was putting him through. Sure, I had lost my job, I had no money, and depression and anxiety had taken over my entire life at that time…. but I never stopped and realized that he had been holding me the entire time and I wasn’t happy… but I was taking his happiness as well. That wasn’t a good or healthy time for either of us. We almost lost each other for good that night, I am so glad that isn’t the case. In a weird ironic way I’m glad it happened because we really took some time to step back and appreciate one another.
Out of that long winter and all of that darkness I was facing and all the stress he was under we made a decision to stay together but it came at a price…
Christian recently moved to Oregon to chase his dreams… our promise to each other is that we would never give up, we would never turn our back on the other, and we would stop at nothing to take care of ourselves so that way we could truly love the other person.
You’re asking yourself… “Wait, why are you in Tennessee and he is in Oregon? Why didn’t he just take your with him?”
One, neither one of has had the money to move both of us and all of our stuff all the way across the United States.
Two, he was offered a rent free living situation until he could get on his feet and it has been hard for him to do so because he has still been helping me in my difficult time. (such an amazing man)
Three, we decided that we would take this time apart to truly learn what we have, what we don’t want to lose, and to work on ourselves. I have to try and find happiness within myself, and he has things he needs to work on as well.
It is okay to notice that you aren’t okay and take time for yourself to work on yourself so that you can truly learn to love yourself so you can truly learn to love someone else.

May 19th, my birthday, my man is coming back for me.  We agreed that May 19th would be the date that I take my looooonnnggg journey to Oregon and change my life forever. I’d chase this love over any mountain or any sea, and if you felt like you had a soulmate, a true soulmate…. would you do the same? I bet you would try if you had the chance.

I am trying to raise this money to pay for the U haul to move all my stuff three thousand miles across the country, while also towing my car and that alone is almost 2500$, money to cover ALL of our moving expenses, his plane ticket here to help me pack our stuff, and money to try and use to get our life started there, together.
Raising money for adventure and for a dream of a true love that I can’t let go.

I have until may 10th to raise this money and I think it is totally possible, I am also working, and have been doing odd and end jobs to try and pay the bills I currently have while also being able to try and put 5 and 10 dollars back here and there because every little bit counts. He is also saving but we were behind for so long that it has been very difficult to get ahead. We won’t give up though.

I am laying it all out and putting everything I have into this because he is my dream. This is my love and I found it on my own and I’ll never let it go.  Three thousand miles is just a hop, skip, and jump if it leads me to him.

This is my love story, it has highs, it has lows, we have experienced many firsts together, and we both have things to work on, but I hope that the story of two real people taking an adventure and doing all things possible to fight for love can give you some real Hallmark feelings and you would be inspired to give to our dream.

Thank you for your time, May 19th, here I come!

Help Me Spend Time with My Twin Sister

In 2018 my twin sister, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012 and beat it, was told her cancer had come back and metastasized to her liver.  She is a fighter though and so positive. With the initial doses of chemo that she had for 7 months it killed all but the tiny bit that they call inactive or stable.  At first it was a mix of 3 different chemo meds every few days, but now it is down to a mix of two chemo meds every 3 weeks. The one chemo med that made her really sick is not in the mix anymore.  She will only do that one again when the cancer comes back, and it will come back.

She will have treatments every 3 weeks for the rest of her life because there is no cure for metastatic breast cancer.  She is on disability now at the request of her doctor. He says her only job now is to fight cancer. 

I think she is running through her bucket list, I admire her living her life to the fullest, but cry each time I think about why she has to. I have taken a lot of little trips with her this past year and she is always thinking of more and more to go on. I have 3 years until I retire so I can spend more time with her, the issue is will she still be feeling good enough for us to be able to.  

She has been my best friend since we were in the womb, and neither of us had kids so we are each other’s person. Sisters have a great bond, but twin sisters, there is nothing stronger. I really do not know what I am going to do without her.  I can’t even do a search for metastatic breast cancer to see how I can help, or if there are new treatments because when I see the statistics I am a mess and have to stop. 

 

I need to be able to be with my sister as much as possible, can you help?. I am asking for 75,000 so I can pay off my bills and retire from work to spend all the time I can with her.  I have added a picture of the 2 of us when we both our heads shaved down together right after the diagnosis.

Help Mom & Dad Retire

My dad is 76 and my mom is 75 and I just want them to be able to really retire, and not have to work to have money for food or a road trip to visit relatives in our old hometown. I am asking for $75,000 so they can get a car and my dad does not have to work anymore.

My dad has worked hard since he was a very young child and deserves to just rest, relax, watch TV, go for drives, or do whatever he and my mom want.  They don’t deserve to struggle to pay bills, or drive a car that is falling apart. I can see the pain when they have to ask for help, and it hurts my heart and soul deeply when we can’t because none of us kids really ended up in a position where we could.

I sit and cry every time I think of them struggling and wish and pray for something to happen so that they can live their retirement years without worrying or working.  

Even with the lack of money my mom and dad still have a great Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner for us and she still manages to get gifts for my great niece and now great nephew.  They have always put us kids, grandkids, and now the great-grand children before themselves and I just want karma to repay their kindness with a life of no worries and not having to set an alarm to get up for work at 77.  

Can you help me to help them?  I would give anything, anything at all to see them in a new car, traveling back to their hometown to visit old friends and relatives which they would love to be able to do and no worry about not having enough money to get there or have to get back quickly for my dad to go to work.  They are the greatest parents in the world and I love them so much, I just want to see them happy, relaxed, and worry free. 

I have attached a family picture. My dad is on the very right and mom is the 2nd from his left.

Thank you so much for all your help and kindness.  It means a lot that my dad won’t have to work anymore, especially with his health.

Unemployed In Foreign Country And Dreaming High

There are lots of abandoned castle here in France. I dreamed of having one and turn it to a beautiful hotel and wedding reception.

I am an individual who came from a third world country, migrated here in France, and so far, I am unable to work as I am learning the language, but once I do, I will be back working in a hotel as a regular employee and will earn just enough to survive.

This is my story.
When I was a kid, living abroad is all I could think of to have a better life. After graduating from college, I joined the 1 year J-1 Internship Program in the USA, but I used all my hard earn money to reimbursed my expenses like, agency fee, visa fee, tickets and accommodation, and to buy warm clothes.
After my internship, I went back to my country, but I got lucky to meet my bf (who is French and joined the same program), and helped me to be able to live abroad again. We went to Cayman Islands and worked for 5 years, we didn’t save money as I was helping my family back home and the cost of living there is so high that our salary is just enough to live day by day.
We decided to leave Cayman and live in his country, here in France and now I am learning the language and he is providing for both of us.

I’ll be honest with you, I don’t want to go back to work for someone else, for so many reasons. My experienced working in Cayman Islands was not very pleasing. Yes, I met a lot of great people, but at the same time, I feel so sorry for myself.  I worked for a long hours, give my best everyday, sacrifice all the holidays and special occasions for a minimum wage. Aside from that, because the job I am in, even how genuinely nice I served them, people don’t treat me with respect, I experienced so many times to get yelled at, be embarrassed in front of other people, throwing (not giving) me $20 dollar just to do what they want, and unfair distributions of tasks within the hotel.
Plus, because of how young I looked and my height, I can’t get promoted. I tried applying so many times to have a better position, even with the strong recommendation of boss, still no success.

I want to have my own business, I want to have my own hotel, but it seems so impossible. I don’t have the capability of buying such property. I don’t have other skills, and no matter how much I worked it’s not enough for me to make my dream come true.

This dream will both benefit me and my husband, my husband wants to have his own restaurant, he is a chef, but it requires a huge amount to have his own restaurant, we don’t have means to support it, even asking loan from the bank is impossible.

I know I am dreaming so high. But I believe that there are lots of people out there with extra money on their pocket, who is willing to help  other reach their dream. I know you are reading this because you are looking for people to help and if you choose to help me, I will be forever grateful and you will change my life forever.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much!

Overwhelmed with debt and nearly homeless

Hi

My name is Jean, I have been struggling with financial issues for quite some time now. I entered on an food business with a friend and she ran away with everything leaving me wine nothing. She is fact stole the money I took from the bank to open de business and now I can’t find her to claim it back. I can’t pay the bank, my partner wants me out of his house and I can’t afford my bills. I am really at point if suicide because I see no way forward. I know that are other people that deserves to be helped more than me but I am here begging for some help to take me out of this desperation. I don’t know what to do really.

I am really desperate and if there is a kind soul out there that could help me easy this burden in my life, I will ever be so grateful and hope that God gives you in double.

Help a Gal Get to her Dream Job Interview! (800 dollars)

Hey hey! I am trying to get last minute (as in I JUST got the notification today) funding for a dream job interview working for a HUGE non-profit animal welfare firm out in Los Angeles. They reached out to me today at 10 in the morning on my email… I have already asked all my friends and family for money (I wasn’t given much notice, but they want me this Friday…) I have already gotten my tickets with all my help. And applied for and got rejected for a frightening amount of credit cards in one evening.  I need lodging and transport, food and fudge money (just in case something bad happens…) I have the barest in my savings and have tabulated with my best hope and cutting corners is 800 even.

My hotel room is 660 plus tax. I have found the cheapest lodging closest to the firm. It’s a Red Roof Inn. It’s only 25 minutes away.

Transport should be 35-40 depending on Uber or Lyft. I looked at bus routes and the city definitely is a cars only city. What’s a 25 minute car drive is a 2 hour walk or a 1 hour bus ride. And I do not know how to drive. I meant to, but didn’t. My fault. I know that, in this day and age it’s foolish to not at least know how to drive and behooves us all to own a car. I will definitely learn first things first If I move out there and get this job. Heck, donate to me and even if I don’t get this job: I will learn to drive here in PA…

Food should (for a three day trip) is 60, I hope. I have celiac and most nuts, honey and am lactose resistant to boot. I don’t know there, but in my area it’s so pricey to get food that wont kill you. I know the cost of living is pretty astronomical but, well, it’s crazy. Can’t argue or gloss over that. And add in issues with foods. Big Yikes.

And that allows me 40-45 of barrier in case of emergency.

Please allow me to get this opportunity paid for. It’s what I went into so much debt for at law school and have been waiting for. I really want this. I need this! I’ve been so depressed I can’t find any good nonprofits needing junior lawyers freshly barred around my area and been working at a Denny’s just to get by on my student loans…  They FOUND me first. That’s gotta count for something, Right??

Grandparents chemo wishes for granddaughter.

Hello, my name is Emily. I’m a mother of two young boys (age 6 and 1 ¹/²)  full of energy that I do not have and I am a wife to my husband who is medically unable to work till cleared medically fit to work again. I work as a cleaner at Walmart but I’m working on becoming a professional photographer however, enough about me.  My grandparents are the ones who I am most concerned about. My grandfather is undergoing chemo therapy again for the third time.  My grandmother has had couple bad tumbles as well while maintaining a big property is hard since they haven’t managed to sell their house yet and taking care of my Pa. If they lived closer I would help physically and I am not able help finacially either unfortunately. I want to fulfill their wishes before they pass away, can you help me?

What I ask of everyone is if you can use the DOLLAR TREE method to donate to help my grandparents be free of worry or doubts before becoming guardian angels.

THE DOLLAR TREE METHOD :
              One person donates
                             $1
        Gets two friends to donate
              $1                          $1
    Those two get two more friends
          $1   $1                    $1  $1
               And so on so forth.

This would help and be very much appreciated. Your kindness and generosity will never be forgotten in my heart and in my family’s hearts.
It is also my birthday wish to see this happen.  (March 7th/92)
