Every now and then I run across a news item that is relevant to what we are doing here at My-Friend-In-Need. The following is a reprint of an article that was syndicated earlier this year. I hope you enjoy it!
Desperate For Money? Try Asking!
The economy stinks, you’ve lost your job, and you can’t make your house payment. Maybe it’s not quite so dire: you need a new pair of glasses or some dental work, and your insurance plan won’t cover it. Or perhaps you’re a college student and you want to finish up your degree without accumulating quite so large a mountain of debt. It could be these or one of a thousand other situations, but one thing is clear: you need more money than you can put your hands on right now, and you have no idea how to get it. Has it ever occurred to you to just ask?
We’ve all heard the old adage, “ask and you shall receive.” What if it’s true? What if we could get our needs met, our wishes fulfilled, merely by asking? Recent history has shown that some people can! Documented examples of “cyber-begging,” as it’s become known, can be traced as far back as 1998, but it first became widely known during the summer of 2002 when Karyn Bosnak, a twenty-something woman from Brooklyn, New York, started her own web site. She wanted to raise $20,000 to pay off her credit card debts, and she did it! Within 20 weeks, her website had received over two million hits and her debt was paid off.
Since then, there have been other notable examples of successful cyber-begging: a woman in 2003 who paid for her breast implants with donations she raised online; a family from Aberdeen, Maryland who in November 2008 raised almost $11,000 online and saved their house from foreclosure. So, how do they do it? And will it work for you?
There are two basic approaches to asking for money online: you can set up your own web site with your own domain name, or you can create a page on a site that is dedicated to providing space for people to do this. There are advantages and disadvantages to both methods.
Setting up your own dedicated web site may appear to be the best, most successful approach to asking for money online. You aren’t competing with anyone else’s hard-luck story (that may well be more compelling than yours). Furthermore, all the “famous” successful sites have revolved around one person/family and their specific need for money. On the other hand, publicizing and driving traffic to your own personal cyber-begging site is easier said than done. The Internet is no longer a world where “if you build it, they will come.” So, unless you get an extremely lucky break and your situation gets picked up by the media or something else happens to send your story “viral,” you could easily spend the time, money, and effort to set up your site with no return.
Alternatively, you can tell your story on a web site that’s designed to allow people to set up their own page to describe their situation and ask for money. For someone who doesn’t have much experience administering web sites, this may be the best way to go. There are usually features you can select (such as presenting your link in a different color, or in bold, or closer to the top of the list), that will make your page stand out a bit in the crowd. Also, if you can create a compelling, well-written story with an eye-catching title, you may also persuade more site visitors to donate to you, rather than to your fellow “beggars.” Finally, this is a low-cost, low-commitment approach. Most sites allow you to advertise for a small monthly charge, and you can cancel your listing with no further obligation. You don’t need to secure your own domain name, arrange for personal web hosting, or design your own site.
Finally, no matter which approach you try, make sure you take advantage of any opportunities you have to bring traffic to your site through free publicity. If you have a Facebook or Myspace page, add a link to your site there. Do you regularly visit or post on a message board for one of your hobbies or interests? Check the terms of service to see if you are allowed to add a link to your site in your signature. Many grocery stores, libraries, or other public places in your area may have bulletin boards – see if you would be allowed to post a short summary of your situation and include the URL of your site. You may even want to invest in business cards (you can sometimes order them online for free or for a small shipping charge) or flyers – take these with you when you visit your local mall, park or other place where people congregate and pass them out or place them on car windshields. Anything you can do to make more people aware of your site will boost your traffic and make you more likely to succeed.
So, is asking for money online an option for you? You may never know until you try!

I met my soul mate online around May 15th of this year. To make a long story short, he was on his way to met me at the airport and got into an accident, broke his shoulder, and has no money coming in for what he needs to survive in Ghana Africa. I have sent all the money I have and don’t where else to turn. Is there any God loving people out there that would love to see to people together as the Lord wants. He needs money to come back to the states and once he’s here I know he would return the favore for someone else in need. His debts are around $5,000 and I’ve already have sent $10,000 myself. I just don’t know where else to turn for help. God Bless for anyone who can help. Claudia

June 30th, 2010 at 12:41 pm
How much more can we deal with?? I keep telling myself there is a God and how long does it take to be heard? After submitting 100′s of job resumes online and chasing monster com and beating the pavement days on end, it’s just about useless!! I’m 52 no job for 4 years, child support payments, health insurance payments, just those 2 are $1,200. a month. I have to live with my mom when I used to make $55,000. a year, My kids lived with me, I was a dad, I had a life, now it’s all gone and no light in the tunnel. How much longer can it last for any of us? Forget the government they don’t care. I just want my life back, I just want to catch up, I just want to stop stressing all day every day, this is not quality of life, this is not the country I grew up in, what has happened to our great country? If I had $10,000. my life would at least be a lot less stressful and I wouldn’t feel so helpless over my situation, I take meds every day and need my insurance without it I will end up in the hospital for days without insurance, that is the worst stress of all, if you take meds you understand, what to do????????

I lost my job last year after having to take care of my elderly parents. I also had taken off work due to a false cancer diagnosis and had to have surgery. I have tried to find a job and my unemployment ran out. I can’t afford for a place for my parents to stay, they did not qualify for medicaid or extra help. I can’t even get food stamps right now. I need help. I was always the one to help everyone else out, but no one wants to return the favor. I really need help but don’t know how to ask for it. If any one can help me with a place to live for my parents, please let me know. I just need enough money for a down payment and to pay for my medicine.

Hello,
I’m a single mom in need of help with my rent. If there is anyone who can help, I would appreciate it. My ex husband committed suicide and my mother, father, brother and sister have all passed on. My son found a part time job at a grocery store and I am desperately trying to find any work. At 55 years old after being a stay at home mom raising 4 kids for 22 years, it’s very difficult to find work. I will be honest, if someone can help us with just 3 months rent so we can get through the holidays, I would be ever so grateful. You can send the money directly to the manager of my complex so you don’t think I’m just trying to get some cash. Thank you so very much for any help.

Hi I’m Meagan & a single mom to my beautiful daughter Novella. Due to health issues, I was out of work or barley working for a while and also will admit that I was getting very depressed plus ashamed of being little help financially. The lack of my old self being around also caused problems in my relationship with the love of my life of almost 7 yrs. I am recently single and have many bills that are backed up. I finally found a doctor who was able to help just a few months ago & he’s tremedously gotten the health issues in back in order-well enough that I am able to go back to work, and they will only get better with each day. The problem is that even though I’ve started a new job monday Jan 9th, I’m too far backed up to be able to break even once again. If I lose my home the only place I have to go is my parents 2 bedroom home, whos spare bedroom which has been a little “study” I’d have to clear out & make way to share a 8′X8′ room with my 3 yr old. I’d also be a much greater distance from my new job. If that is what i’d have to do, then there’s nothing i can do, but I have to try everything because I don’t want to lose what I have when i know with my new steady job and my health where it is, in a couple of months I’ll be earning more than enough to pay my bills once again. That would be devistating to know that I’m so close, and have to lose it all. I just can’t come up with the amount backed up to be able to get where i need to be. I’m also anxious for a new beginning & new life with just my daughter and I because i’ve now realized that I don’t need to be with someone who doesn’t want to help put a smile on your face and be there for you in your darker times, especially when you’ve done that for them every time. I don’t want to lose everything I’ve done to give myself and my daughter a life we are both much better off with. I’m donating plasma twice weekly, have sold as much un-needed things as i can and still have some adds on craigslist. I’ve taken clothes, old toys, and other odds and ends to consignment stores & got a little bit from that..but I’m not even looking to be 100% back on track..just up to date on my mortgage, utilities, groceries/household neccessities, etc..I only have 2 credit cards of which I’m not as worried about because I can arrange something for things that can wait until I start getting paychecks & know I can handle on my own. To get where is good enough to not lose everything, I’d need around $800-$900, which any of that would help and be more appreciated than you’d ever imagine. I’d never let anyone forget how much it meant to my & my little girl. I also wanted to add that before this past year, I was always ahead on bills & actually only used credit cards just to get free gas cars and bonuses while paying everything off right away. I’ve never been rich & that is not important to me, but I always made sure I had more that enough. Please help so i can soon be that again, and soon will lead to being able to take my daughter to new places & buying us more quality food & turn up the thermistat a little! Thank you so much for your time reading this. I am keeping hope alive. I don’t want to keep feeling on top of what’s going on, the axiety & sadness that goes with it. Wishing I had my life and happiness back. All of you who are in the place I was once, paying bills & not having to worry about losing anything, please cherish it. I know if I get the help I need to be that way again, I’ll cherish & hold on to it so tight & have to knowledge & understanding i need incase something ever were to happen. Thanks again and again.

Like so many others, we are also desprate for help. I have been fighting to get disability since Sept 2009 and my husband lost his job in June 2010. I had to have surgery in December and my mother in law is terminally ill. I am so scared, I don’t know what to do. The tension and stress is unbearable. We are 2 months behind on our mortgage and I am scared to death that we will lose our home. I just pray that there is some very kind person that will feel lead to help a christian in need. I have faith that God will touch the soul of someone special that is welling to help us out. I am a big believer in Paying it forward. It is my promise to every reader and to the kind person that feels we are worthy of help that I will immediately in turn help another fellow person in need. God Bless you All! Teresa

We are losing our family dream….our family legacy. After over 30 years of building a successful and reputable contracting business, we were faced with the demise of the construction industry in this incredible recession. We were fortunate enough to engage 3 generations of hard labor and education into this business. Now we are incredibly broke, looking for business opportunities just to keep our personal homes (quite modest) and the american dream of continuing our business alive. But, we need help desperately. We dont just want handouts, we are so willing to work for any assitance available. Hard work and tenacity is what fueled our success. Now, it’s purely the lack of cash that will cause its demise. Please help us keep our family business, and keep the legacy of our 3 generations working for the american dream!! Thank you.

I am looking for a kind soul or souls to help me. I was laid off when my company lost the Medicare contract they had. As a result, I have no dental insurance and now have a serious infection in 5 of my top teeth. I need $1000.00 to take care of this issue. I’ve exhausted all other avenues and wonder if anyone can please help me. I promise when I finally get a job in this economy (I keep applying every day, no one is hiring)..I will pay it forward and be eternally grateful.
Many thanks and bless you for reading this.

I am married with a child and life is so hard for me. I am trying to make ends meet and I wont to go to school so I can provide a better life for my family but not making any money, it is really impossible to go to school. I just wish I can have money so I can return to school. Im already deep in debt and I need a blessing.
August 16th, 2011 at 9:13 am
It seems there are so many of us with the same story. I am a single mom of an unbelievable 6 year old little boy. I work full time, but still cannot seem to make ends meet. I am going to lose my car today if I don’t get some help. It is the only way I have to get to work. If someone could open their heart to me, I would be forever indebted to you! Thank you and God bless.

To whom it may concern:
“I want to live to see my kids grow:
My name is Aida and I am 48 year old single mother of two beautiful children a boy (Luis) age 2 ½ a beautiful and kind girl (Christina) age 24. My family means more to me than anything in this world. I worry about my Daughter, but especially my baby boy. He is just a baby.
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer I was frighten and it took my breath away. All I kept thinking was about my children, and what would happen to them. I just knew I would die. Know I realize that I have to live for them. I cannot leave their side, they need me and I need them.
I have no idea was going too happened!!!! I am already feeling fatigued and depressed… but I am not going to give up, I will fight for my life to the end. Hoping and praying that you will help me financially and with my children. Unfortunately, I live pay check to pay check and don’t have enough savings. I pray and pray and pray….
I am afraid to tell my boss about my diagnoses, I am not sure how my boss will react. I may lose or need to leave my job or take significant amount of time off for treatment. Resulting in lack of a source of income, I don’t want this to interfere in me getting better… to take care of my family. I need to know you are there for me, I feel overwhelmed by financial pressure.
My doctor said I will go thru radiation and Chemotherapy; surgery will be within two weeks. After I was diagnosed with breast cancer that burden is so difficult to bear with when I am going through diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. I need your help please…
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your time and consideration, and look forward to whatever support you can provide.
August 17th, 2011 at 6:01 pm
I am unemployed “again” and in serious financial trouble (approximately $150,000). I would love to place all my debts behind me so that I can finally concentrate less on that strenuous mess, and more on my dream of one day starting up a small business, and putting people back to work. My business idea is along the development of green energy ideas for homes and businesses – solar energy; wind energy storage; better insulation; etc. I would hire electricians, mechanics, and assistants to help them.
Oh what a tremendous sense of freedom that must be!!!
Unfortunately it would take a kind-hearted multi-millionaire philanthropist to bail me out. On top of that he or she would have to be near 100% optimistic in what I was typing here is the honest to God truth. I am not entirely sure how many of them would even be on here reading my plea for wiping the debt table clean … it only takes one.

Good afternoon,
I am 31 years old, and am a single mother of a beautiful 5 year old daughter and a handsome 11 yar old son who is a type 1 diabetic. Long story short. I work, alays have, I work full time and go to school full time, my ex-husband has disappeared and left me with all of the bills, which is ok, what I didn’t know is that he put our house into foreclosure and myself and my two children have to find a new home almost immediately. I make enough money to pay the bills, but that is it. Nothing left. What I am struggling with is about $4,000, to pay to get into a new home (unfortunately they require first month, last month and a security deposit) If anyone can help me with this I will even sign an agreement to pay it back. I just desperately need a little help to get out of the hole my ex-husband has put myself and my children into. Thank you so much and God Bless You!

My name is Jamie and I became unemployed about a year ago when our boss closed the daycare down. We’d been struggling and I had been the only full-time worker and though was supposed to get a raise, could only be paid minimum wage.
At first it was fine, we were “okay”. I had developed a severe case of endomitriosis and needed to take time off for surgery anyway. Though my mom doesn’t have any health insurance for herself, she made sure I had some to get the surgery.
But now I’m back out looking for a job. Certain experiences in my last job traumatized me from wanting to work in the childcare industry again. But it makes me realize that, as it was my first/only job…that I have nothing to offer any new employer. I’ve kept applying each week to different places…but it seems I can’t even get a job at a grocery store. I live with my niece and my mother and we’re sinking. We don’t even own the house we live in, we live with my aunt. I have a Bachelor’s Degree but I have bills to pay off because though I took an online class to help raise my niece, the government school fund that I usually applied to only paid for in-state colleges (the online college was based in Denver)
I feel stupid and hopeless. If I hadn’t wasted time and money on a college degree… My mom is trying to remain upbeat but I feel like I’m failing her because I can’t even get a minimum wage grunt job at a grocery store.
But even now, I don’t want to ask for money. Government grants and such are one thing. But I at least wanted to relieve a bit of my tension because I just can’t tell my concerns to other people I know. So thanks for “listening”.

We will be homeless August 31, 2011. There are 2 adults, including myself. We have a 12 year old special needs son which makes it difficult to get full time employment or any employment.
My husband has cancer and has a difficult time with every day living. And does not qualify for disability nor does our son qualify for Social Security. We don’t qualify for TANF either only foodstamps.
We are flat broke, the last bit of our money, which was going to go for the rent and utilities was stolen.
If anyone could help us we would appreciate it. We both want to work but can’t find work.
Please help us before we are out in the street. How do you tell a child who has Aspergers Syndrome he doesn’t have a home any longer? It just breaks my heart this is our last few days here unless we get help with our rent and utilities.
We tried all the charities and churches, they are all out of funds right now.
Thank you and God Bless.

My family is going through the loss of our son. He got hit by a car and passed away a week later. My Wife has not worked in almost a month and as difficult as it has been, I went back to work. I just recently found out that my company that I have been with for almost 15 years is closing its plant in Oregon and moving operations to Indiana. Any kind of Monetary help will do, as I do not know when my job will end, and we are already behind on bills and will soon have medical and funeral costs to concider as well.

I have no idea what it is like to own nice things.
September 7th, 2011 at 9:53 pm
As I can see that there are so many other’s with needs I wish that I could be on the giving end. Unfortunatly my family is not is a position to do that now. My husband and I have severe health problems. He is legally disabled because of a heart condition and I am disabled because of the problems that I have with Multiple Sclerosis. I have to take it day by day just to survive. I also have a son that has had 6 surgeries with more to come and another child that has epilepsy and severe food allergies to milk and peanuts. I am so greatful for life and being able to live. I just hope and pray for a miracle to help our little family get into some sort of housing or maybe just take a trip to get all our minds off the constant worries.

Hi My name is Tammy and I am from South Africa. I am married with 3 young children. My husband is a contractor and works when work is available. I havent paid my rent in two months and I am waiting for the eviction notice at any time. I am struggling to put food on the table and it breaks my heart to tell my children that there just isnt anymore. I am so deep in debt and cannot afford to make any loans. I owe all my family members money and I just cannot afford to pay them back. This is the first time I am putting something like this on the internet, but what else do I have left. I am sincerely asking someone out there to please help me and my family. I would be extremely grateful.

My name is Kat, and I am desperate for help. I am 20 years old, and work two jobs, but I still do not make ends meet.
I live with my parents, due to lack of financial backing, but they are extremely abusive. I have been stuck by vehicles, dragged down flights of steps, and beaten by baseball bats. I endure verbal abuse daily. My parents have told me that years ago, they took out a loan in my name, an as they are bankrupt, it falls on ne to pay. I cannot afford school until this loan is paid off, and I desperately need to leave my house, an find a safe place to live.
Please, if there is anything you can do, do not hesitate. I’m at the end of my rope. I’ve tried absolutely everything, but still can’t find a way out.
Anyone who helped me would not only help me out of my current living condition, but would give me a new lease on life. I would be eternally grateful.
September 26th, 2011 at 10:05 am
running out of time please help..My son is currently serving his country in the U.S. Army, and I desperately need your help on his behalf. I chose to contact you personally after seeing help other and hopeing you would support the military and their families.
I live in Otway, OH and my son and his wife are based in Fort Bliss, in elpaso TX. They are expecting their first child on October 25, 2011. Sadly, on July 25, 2011, my son was deployed to Iraq and is expected to be gone for a year, therefore will not be present for the birth of his first child. Before he left for Iraq, he asked me to go to Texas to be with his wife when their baby is born so that she would not be alone. Yes was the only option, since I wouldn’t miss the birth of my grandchild for anything in the world and promised him that I would be there. However, at the time I didn’t think about the costs involved in traveling from Ohio to Texas, since I am disabled and surviving only on a small monthly SSI check.
For that reason, would you be willing to donate a roundtrip airline ticket and motel cost to me as a gesture of goodwill and financial hardship so that I will not miss this memorable event? I hope that you will fully take into consideration my sincere plea and know that I will accept anything you can offer. I would like to thank you for supporting the military and their families.
Respectfully,
jessica

October 6th, 2011 at 5:09 am
I am a 40 year old single mum. My son is 23 months old. I was very successfull until i got pregnant and everything went downhill. My boyfriend at that time, wanted me to get an abortion. When i refused he started to abuse me with results that my baby was born with lung problems. My problems really started then because i was not able to continue with my business because i was looking after my sick baby full time. During that period i lost my house, my car, my business, all my furniture. I dont regret one moment of that because my love for my son is worth much more that a house or a car but i also know that i need to get back on my feet so that i will be able to give my child what he deserve. I dont know what to do anymore. I just want to be able to support my child by earning an income from home. I am desperate because my son’s expenses are high and i can not afford anything. All i need is a work that i can do from home, in my own hours and to get paid for that so that i can financially look after my sweet angel that went through alot because of an abusive dad that did not want to take responsibility and tried everything in his power for me to loose my son.
October 6th, 2011 at 8:53 am
I really feel uncomfortable asking for something that someone else has worked for, but feel as though I was lead here. I know everyone like myself has had bad times, so where do I start? I am 33 years old and severely lost mentally, emotionally and financially. I came out of the closet in high school and was oustrasized from school. I went from being popular to kicked out and beat on. I was involved in a Hate crime when I was 18 and was stabbed and almost lost my life. I was five minutes from death in the hospital report and now I suffer from PSTD. Post tramautic stress disorder.
Through my whole life I watched my father abuse my mother and sibilings. He always installed in my head that I would amount to nothing, and so I have. Suffering from ptsd, lossing myself and trying to just BE part of the normal world has never been easy. I lost one of my best friends/bf and lost everything I had ever had. My world is chaos and my youth slipping away… I cant see a way out of my the shitty trailor I live in on my parents land, the endless hospital and other bills.. His voice (my father) is always telling me I will be nothing and I believed him. I dont know what to do anymore but ask for help. I tried to go back to school at the age of 31, but found because of the economy I cant find a job. My car recently broke down and I don’t know what to do..loans are coming in and here I sit anxiety ridden, alone in a small town as my life was ripped away from me. Someone said ask and ye shall receive… Well Im asking..Im wondering though will anyone lisetn?

Timothy, you are a child of god. You can do this. You can do anything you set your mind to. Your father has probaly earned his seat in hell. You are something and somebody. You went to school and god put this intomotion for you to do something with your life. I was abused also and managed to have a life of some kind. God gives me only what I need and nothing more and does this as I ho along. Do you have a hobby you love doing like crafts? You can make little things like Christmas ornaments and sell them on eBay, save what you can. I live in the south and know crafting as it is apart of my heritage. We make blankets, macramé plant hangers, knitting and crocheting items and sewing for others, basket weaving and making hand made fishing lures. Wood working items is a good one. Myomere paints and has grabbed attention from people asking for a large amount of her work. You can do this. You can get a knitting machine and make and sell items. Nothing wrong with a man knitting and crocheting things. Some men ate noted for their work. You can enter your work into fairs and get paid if you win a ribbon and I think people ask for an item to be made. You can food for people if you know how.ow grass and do farm work. Raise your own food to do for yourself and sell the extra. Package of seeds is only 60 cents. But, the tomatoes you grow can sell for 2.00 a pound. I live in the country and do for myself. I have to do this to survive and get through the winter time. You can do these things I told you. Put your computer to work for you. Make things, sell them on eBay. My family did and say things to hurt me, but, god holds me close to comfort me and get me through. I dint know of you love the lord, I hope you do. He will help and guide you to what ever you or he ask of him or you. God bless you. Take care and I hope you take what said and tin with it. people sell tbeir baked items also and have fund raisers here or pit out collection jars in stores asking for help. I have to run. Take care and look to god for what you need.

In June 2009 my house burn down. My insurance on my building paid out and we build a new house.The amount that was paid out were not enough to finished building the house. We sold our business to get money to finished the house and also to hire a caravan to stay in.We also contact our insurance Brokers to register a claim for our belongings , furniture. My Broker inform me that my insurance laps due to debit orders not paid out of my bank account.That was on the 16 of July 2009. I was shocked because I never missed one payment on my insurance for ten years.On the 25 of May 2009 i phoned the insurance company to tell them that I closed my account and that the payment for May will not go through but I want to deposit money in their account to pay for my insurance. The lady tell me they don’t work like that and the only way is that on the end of June 2009 a double payment will be deducted from my new account.On the 29th of June I deposit a check in my account to met all my debit orders.I also asked the bank to clear the check before the 1st of July 2009 knowing that my debit orders must be deducted on the 1st of July.On the 2nd of July the bank let all my debit orders went through but reversed them on the 3rd of July 2009 because they did not clear my check in time. That is the reason my Insurance was not paid that month.I then file my claim to the Ombudsman for short term insurance to help me to see that I did everything in power to pay my insurance.After 2 years the Ombudsman sent me a letter that my claim was denied.By that time we had to sold our cars,take my son out of Varsity, falling behind with all our bills.We own the Bank 4 month payment and they warned us that we are going to loose our house if we don’t pay the outstanding amount. Me and my husband try anything to make money but if you stay in South Africa their is no way to get work.If we lost our home,then we will be sleeping in the street with my son that also try to get work for two years now. My mother in law is also staying with us and she is 79 years old.We lost every thing that we have,and I can not bear to see my husband so depressed that he wanted to took his own life so that his life insurance pay out that me and my son and his mother can have a better life.I don’t want to loose my husband. I’m to scared to left him alone at home. If only my insurance would have paid me.I’m begging on my knees please if somebody could find it in their hearts to help us on our feet or just money for food we will be very thank full.

I am a professional magician with a loving spouse and 3 young children.
I moved to Washington 4 years ago and had to take a job at a casino to make ends meet while getting my business rolling.

we lost our home, care and most things of any value.
we are all living in a small travel trailer with not much room.

Hi,
My name is Armando Romé, First of all I want to say, thank you so much for spending the time and reading this. My story starts a long time ago ever since I discover music. Am a singer/songwriter, I been doing/writing/singing/breathing/living music for so many years now independently. I have the biggest passion for it with many crazy stories behind it. As a quick story, a couple years ago I recorded a 5 song demo CD, I had in mind from the beginning that I wanted everyone to hear my songs and in my mind I wanted everyone to sing them. I decided and went forward with a crazy idea, were I got all my demo CD’s, put them in the trunk of my car, and literally drove all over Mexico for 2 months dropping them off in all the radio and TV stations I could find without even knowing this country at all. I’m a U.S Citizen, I live here in the States, in the State of California. Since the music I’m involved is in spanish, I realized that Mexico would be a great target were people would actually understand what I’m singing, thats why I went with driving all over Mexico.
I can literally say that my world turns with music, I eat, breath, talk, dream and think music all the time, sometimes is not even good cause I cant do anything else without having that in mind, and for the past year it has got to the point were am going crazy over it. This past year I started working on the Production/Recording of a full length CD with a great Argentinean producer in Mexico city, I have incredible songs that I have written with great songwriters and the album / CD its starting to sound really promising. The CD has cost me lots of money to be produce, as an independent solo artist I can barely afford it. I worked as a bank teller and for the past year all my earnings have gone to pay my album, with this recession my hours got cut and eventually I was out of work. I started looking for other ways to earn money and finish paying for my production. I started buying and resealing washer and dryers to earn extra money on craigslist, I also started getting free stuff on craigslist and selling it to earn extra income for my album, I also started doing the buying and resealing of cars in auto auctions to earn money from there to. Eventually all the sales weren’t enough because of all the recession, and people weren’t interested in buying stuff. I really don’t have a life and this as been overwhelming, I been super stress, I haven’t been able to sleep for the past months and now and I can’t deal with myself no more. I wanted to ask for any little help out there I can get, if you can’t I would understand, but if you could share my story maybe someone out there could help me in this.
I’m almost there with my goal, My production cost me $20,000 and I’m $4,500 short.
If you decide to help me out a little, I thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your Donation, If you would leave me your email or any kind of contact information, I will promise to contact you with current updates and will be the first one to receive a copy of my work. Thank you so much.
If you are interested in listening to my work, here is a link to my youtube account were you can hear a couple of my last songs I did in my past demos http://www.youtube.com/armandorome

I am a 24yr old graduate with a Bsc. degree. Ive been searching for a job since i completed my education in august 2010. Nothing has come up. Am broke, tired of job searching but not giving up on life. I have decided to venture into business instead. Open a coner shop (saloon) and also buy chairs, tents and a Music system for hire as the main recreation Zambians (a country in Afica where i am from) love most is parties. Therefore there is a high demand for hiring of chairs, tables, music system for these house parties that are hosted outside due to hot weather. I have costed a total of $50,000 for everything needed including a Van as means of transporting these items. So asking for any contribution towards raising this ammount.. Thanx.

I am a husband to my wife and father of two. My wife had an accident a couple years ago and was put of work for a year.she now just got better from gall bladder being removed and me from cancer. We have fallen behind on our bills and are ready to have home taken. We need help ASAP. We are now both working but just need help getting caught up. Thank you and god bless.
November 12th, 2011 at 10:57 am
novel idea but humans don’t care. If I were an animal in need of rescue I would have a much better chance of getting money. People don’t care. Myself and my two boys have become homeless, but it doesn’t matter, forget trying

Hi,
My request is that those who read this donate to my cause.
Today 2011,I am a 56 year old woman that survived parotid cancer,4 years ago.
In 2007, I was a widow living in Maui as a massage therapist. After surgery and radiation, my bank account was empty and I returned my car to the bank. Then traveled to my daughters home to heal and help her care for her baby(my granddaughter), while her husband was deployed.I continue to care for my granddaughter as my daughter then went into the AirForce.
As a widow that had just survived cancer, I met a God fearing man and married him after 8 months. However, I did not realize that 2 years later, he would be telling me that I do not know Christ and I am the devils daughter. So, I need to leave here and return to Hawaii to continue my life where I left off in 2007.
Also, I would like to have medical attention and dental repair due to the damage from facial radiation.I have not seen a doctor since 2008.
I realize this is alot to read and alot to consider. I have always been a generous heart and hope You will be generous to me so that I might get back on my feet again.
Today is the day when I realize that I need help to regain my health, heart and mind. To do that I need the help from all of you to help me.
Thank You,
Tonya J 11/13/2011

Hello
I’m a struggling single mom sometimes feeling all alone in this world. I really hope there’s someone out there to help me. I feel I’m at the end of my rope…but I have to be strong for my child….I am ALL he has. I pray that someone can reach out to me and let me know that there are people in this world that really does care and truly want to assist me. I’m about to lose my home (3 months behind on rent – $2700…..not including November) which scares me because my child and I have nowhere else to go. I’m behind on my car payments – so I have that to worry about as well. My job is in another city (gas expenses are outrageous – $60 a week). About four months ago, my employer cut my pay by over ½ in order to prevent laying off employees. I barely make much money and now it’s not even worth the commute in that I spend much of it in gas. I had purchased a new 2010 car the first of this year and ended up “returning” the car this summer – because I could no longer afford it. I loved that car and hate returning it, but I had no choice. I had to make adjustments in my life. Sometimes one has to take a few steps back to make ends meet, but my ends are still not meeting. Even with getting a cheaper car, I’m still behind on car payments. I have tried public assistance, but now-a-days it seems you have to be making $5,000 (annually) before they will give you any assistance. I was able to get food stamps though….it wasn’t much, but every little bit helps. Some people out there abuse the system….and it makes it harder for the ones (like me) who really NEED it to get any kind of assistance.
I’m currently trying to find another job, but haven’t had any luck yet. No one’s calling! It’s not benefiting me at all where I’m working at right now – because I’m not making nothing!!! To make matters worse, there’s a court order for child support but it’s not being enforced the way that it should. I’ve tried to locate the father for assistance, he’s nowhere to be located and I don’t even think he’s working right now. Furthermore, he has not even seen his child at all! It’s sad because I grew up without my father and it looks like my child will grow up without one. He completely turned his back on me once he found out I was pregnant!
My mother died when I was a young child and my father was in and out of my life. I was almost an orphaned. The family members I have are not in any shape to help me and living with them are not an option….they have “no room”…they say. So now you see why I feel so alone? I don’t have anybody in my life right now. Not in a relationship…..don’t care for that right now…..I’m trying to save my home. I’m so very stressed, not sleeping and constantly worrying how am I going to get caught up with the rent, how am I going to catch up on car payments, how am I going to pay utility bills etc. etc etc. I pay a little to my debtors with the small amount of money I do make. It’s hard trying to figure out who to pay…..so I focus on what will be “turned off” soon. I know I’m not the only one in this boat…there are so many single moms out here going through the same thing….I guess everybody has a story to tell.
I’m just so afraid….I try not to show it around my son how scared I am….but I’m so afraid we’re going to come home and find a pad-lock on the door or wake up and find my car repossessed. My landlord has been so patient with me….but this is putting him in a financial bind as well. He’s aware that we have no other place to go – but I’m too far behind and need to come up with 2 or 3 rent payments to avoid being evicted.
Please – if you can do anything to help me out, I would greatly appreciate it so much. It’s hard for me asking for help…but I have no choice. I’m really scared to death!!! I have a child who is depending on me.
I pray that GOD sends an angel to this website to help me out. If it was the other way around and I have funds to help someone in need….I wouldn’t give it a 2nd thought…I would definitely help them out…..stranger or not.
I prefer being a “giver” than a “taker”…… I hope someday I’m able to be in that position again….
P.S. I don’t know how long I will have cable/email services…..”hopefully” I won’t miss your response!!!
Much Love!

Hi my name is Brittany. My husband and I have been together for almost 9 years now, we have one child hes 5 years old. To make a long story short my husband and I up and moved so we could attend college. We both want to better our education for us and so our son would have a better future. We got here started school, I homeschool my son also. My husband got a great job doing construction and come time for the people to pay him for a long 3-4 week project, they said they were not paying him nothing because the main guy didnt like it…They owed my husband almost 3,000 and on top of it my husband paid for all supplies,ect. My husband got scammed. So with the only truck we have, we got a title loan to pay our billls, then we got some extra money from student loans that paid the next month worth of bills. Mean while we both are filling out applactions for jobs and we are not having any luck. We share our only vehicle for both of us to go to school and job hunt. We are about to lose the vehicle due to not having the money to pay on the title loan. We are now behind on elec,water,and phones all due to be shut off any day now. We dont even have gas to drive to school or job hunt. We have sold everything that we could to get extra money to go toward the bills. I applied for foodstamps and was approved i thank god for that blessing that my 5 year does not have to go hungry. If we dont come up with the bill money and the truck loan money soon, we will lose are only vehicle and will have to move. We dont have any friends or family near that we could even move in with. I dont know what to do and right here at the holidays to. We are very good people just trying to do things the right way. Please please if anyone could please help us in anyway, we would be so greatful and thank you with all our hearts. I am willing to somehow show proof that I am a real person with a husband and 5 year old son in need of help. I hate asking, as i sit here crying not knowing what else to do but ask for help. Thank you and God Bless

Wow! There are certainly many well-deserving cases posted here. My situation may pale in comparison, heowever, it is nonetheless highly stressful to me.
Back in December of 2010 my family businesses were forced under due to the recession and went back to the bank. I currently work 4 jobs to make ends meet and am failing miserably. My 2 young sons are feeling the burden as they are not able to spend the quality time they need with me at this stage in their young lives.
My vehicle is old and in need of work. I’ve had to borrow against it to keep it running and now cannot get rid of it. I am also under chronic pain management and can no longer afford my medication. I do not let that interfere with my jobs as I simply cannot afford to.
I am looking to raise 20,000 dollars to turn my situation around. To some, that may not sound like a lot, and to others, it may sound incredulous, but that is where I am at. I have never even considered asking for assistance as my pride always gets in the way, however the article above has given me a small aoura of “Hope”.
If any of you reading this can find it in your heart to help out, I shall be eternally greatful…
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Cheers!

I am 26 years old, my husband is 34 years old, and we are flat broke. I started a job in May 2011 after being out of work on temporary disability for a long time due to recurrence of symptoms of bipolar I disorder. Shortly after I started working again, my husband lost his job.
My days have been cut from five days a week to one day a week. My husband is still unemployed. We scour the want ads, craigslist, the job sites. We send out resumes and spend hours doing online applications. It is a soul-crushing process, and one that has yielded few results.
In the meantime, our already high debt has reached new limits. Most of our debt comes from student loans. I am a student trying to work towards a better future. In the meantime the interest is piling up, I can not afford to make payments, and the stress is torture.
We also owe some personal debts to family that has lent us smaller sums to help us out of tight spots. That really keeps me up at night, the fact that we have no means to repay right now.
Our families can no longer help us, we are tapped out of resources. We are bringing in less than $100—mostly less than $50—a week right now. We are out of things to sell, out of family members to beg to help us get through a week by putting gas in the car or food in our mouths.
I don’t know what to do. At this rate, we will never get ahead with the amount of debt that is looming over our heads. We are good decent people, but we are in a mess. We have a roof due to a family member’s generosity, but that situation is not going to last much longer. We can hardly afford food, let alone to pay the bills, interest and late fees that we get everyday. We need a miracle if we are ever to be able to start our own family responsibly, have a stable place to live, be able to start a future instead of chasing the past around in circles.
I have never asked for help in this way, and do not want to take from anyone who can not afford it. I just want a chance to have a life with my husband that consists of something more than counting change and the constant worrying. If we could start with a clean slate by having the cash to pay off our debts once and for all, we would have a chance at a future.
Thank you for reading, many blessings!!!

I’m in the same boat as so many others. I hope and pray someone can help everyone asking for help. One day i want to help people in need. Now, I can’t find a job. I own a business that is not paying. I lost more money than I made. House payment and every other bill is due. I have 2 kids i can’t feed or clothe with no help from their mom. And I owe childsupport on my other son. I am now $500 behind on him and they suspended my licens 2 days ago. Now how can I find work if i can’t get there. I live 25 miles from the anything. I have 2 books I wrote, if I could get them in print, I believe i can sell them. I make hiking sticks and sell a few but need to get them out there to sell more. I will do almost anything to feed my family… $500 will get me driving again. But I am asking for a business investment. I will make a pay back agrement. I believe someone out there will help me, and one day when I make it with my books, hiking sticks and my direct selling business, I will pay back 100 times the help I get. Please help me help others. I’m not the only one in need, but i will pay back any help.

My name is Abbe, and I’m a proud mother of three wonderful boys. My fiancé and I have been struggling to pay our bills that they all about to get turned off. We have no food in our fridge , and no money to get any. Christmas is right around the corner and I’m terrified that my boys will not have a lite tree to wake up to on Christmas morning. Also there being no presents. I never imagined being in this position and now that I’m here I know how bad it hurts. It has taken a huge tool on my relationship and has caused a lot of stress and depression in our house. My 7 year old will be turning 8 on the 12th of Dec. and I know I can’t provide a party or cake or a gift. I feel like I failed as a mother as if there is nothing I do will make a difference. My fiancé Joe works but doesn’t make good money for a family of five. In March, 2011, I underwent back surgery. Do to a fracture from when I was 11. I now have four screws, two rods, and had a bone graph. I’m only twenty-five years old and can’t move around well . The surgery did not work for me. In fact I feel worse. I feel horrible to ask for help from anyone, but I am desperate right now. I need help to put food in my fridge, catch up on bills, and make sure my boys have a huge smile on their face Christmas morning. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated and never forgotten. So please help this wonderful family of five. God Bless.

Good blessings to all. I’m from south africa and live in cape town. 3years ago my husband passed away so suddenly form a heart attack leaving me a widow wth insurmoutable debt due to no insurance on his life. The simple yet fullfilling life as I knew it had come to an abrupt end. Life in south africa is very tough already, wrh the days decision often bn do I buy a bread or do I buy electricity so I can have light at night. Altho things was tough I coped and even managed paying some of our bills off . But then my boss of 9years decided to file for bancruptcy leaving me wthout a job and no way of finding another. God knows I’ve tried. Not one to sit idly, I quicly started up a home busness taking advantage of my skills as a seamstress making weddng gowns etc. I was doing moderately but ever since 2011 started, work has dried up. My funds I built up diligently has bn depleted. I walk the road everyday in search of work wth no luck at all. I was prev a racialy disadvantaged person and it seems in our new democracy, I am still not the right color. I found ths website tonite due to me typing in on google search, God pls help me. Out of sheer desperation I did that. Days goes by that all I have is water, I’m gettng thinner and thinner daily as I don’t have any food. Fam brings now and then but they dnt really know my plight. They not blind but they can’t see. I just need a break. Just a little push to get me back up again. Iv nevr bn lazy. I just really do not understand tht I’m doing everythng righht but still the rich gets richer and us poor just get poorer. Pls someone just help me wth a little push. I really really can’t go on anymore. I’m desperate, my pride is gone and I have just my dignity to cling to. Today I cdnt afford electricty , its almost midnite and I’m wrting this letter on my mobile. Pls God help me.. I am so desperate that it brings me to tears

Always been hard working. Single mom of 2, 9yrs and 15yrs. No one to turn to, or depend upon. Have worked since 14 yrs old, now 44. No credit, no cash, no savings, no investments, no real assets of worth. Really. Never married. Live in a 33 year old trailer. Always behind, on everything. Just tired, and sad. Can’t ever seem to get a break.
Please help me and mine….please. Just taking a chance here. Thank-you.

Wow! It breaks my heart to see so many people suffering this time of year when it should be about joy and togetherness. This is a hard time for many of us but it does make me feel better to know my husband and I are not alone. My husband lost his job in June and has been out of work for almost 6 months. I work at a animal hospital 6 days a week just to keep a roof over our head and bills paid. So far we have been able to hold things together except that the unemployment runs out the end of this month and we have only my salary to live on. We make less then 20,000 a year and I am very scared at the moment. It is hard to be the one who tries to hold it all together, to encourage him to keep looking and not to feel worthless. My husband only graduated highschool and due to his own family could never afford college. My father has really pushed school on him and now at 32 he has agreed to go to community college. We really need help to get our credit cards and classes for him paid. I make 10.00 an hour and have just let our cell phone, cards, gym membership and other bills go knowing that I am the only one who is working right now. I am in SO much debt that I dont care anymore since my credit is shot anyhow. I just need 3,000 or any amount of money to keep him from giving up on college and to help us while he continues to look for work. God bless everyone who is struggling right now and thank you to anyone who can help.

Hello,
We not a person to ask for hand out but sometime we have to bend our pride and ask for help. we not in this predicament for not saving or expending like crazy but because we were in the military so all my debt was base on that income and I did have saving. However after I came from serving overseas, it became impossible to find a job I finally found one and had a second gig to try to help me get caught up after using up all of my saving I ran out of money so end playing catch up. Try talking to my bank so we could work something out or repackage my loan but the answer was no. Now I am about to loose my house and possibly my car if I can’t get cut up they said by end of this month. I can only pay the bill at hand. I can not pay the back debt. I need help urgently to save my house. To save my house I need at 18000 dollar with the fee by the end of the year. My car I need 1200 to be caught up. Hope anyone can help because right now even the food supply is low.
If anyone can help me even if with a dollar, I am not trying to get rich or anything like that. God know I need help. If you would like proof I can send it to you.
December 11th, 2011 at 8:37 pm
I am in need of money to help me out of a difficult situation. The person will be paid back. We do have an income but fell into something that my money alone cannot help. Please, we are very honest and hardworking people that are suffering in this terrible economy and wake up each day thinking things must get better. We will be open to ideas you may have. Thank you so much for reading. Harry

I am a divorced mother, and have custody of my 11 year old daughter. I have a degree in education, and taught for 15 years. I left my profession to help my ex husband run his business (for no pay). When he lost his business, our marriage of 23 years fell apart. He ruined my credit, and does not want me to move to find employment. I spent over a year looking for a job, and finally found a part time one that I have to commute 45 minutes to get to. I am still looking for another part time job, or a full time job. I would like to go back into teaching, but don’t have the money to apply for my license or for my transcripts to be sent to the state. I can’t pay my rent, my other bills, I’ve resorted to getting payday loans out of desperation, and it only seems to have made the situation worse.
My ex never pays child support on time, and isn’t making the situation any better.
I’m afraid. Actually, I’m terrified. I cry and pray every day asking for guidance and help. I’ve sold everything I can, and continue to try to find things I can sell for a few dollars here and there. I just really need to get out of this town, and find a way to make a living to take care of my daughter.
I’ve gone to the bank, but because of my ex husband, couldn’t get any help.
Someone, please help us. I will gladly pay it forward if I get help. I always try to help people in need, and know that everyone needs help at some point in their lives. I need it now. I’m trying so hard, and am so depressed, and don’t see any way out of this.
Please, someone see this who can help me. I don’t know what to do.

My name is Rhys, I am 21 years old, I have an eight month old Siberian Husky that means the world to me, although I currently work full time for a finance company, I am finding it hard to survive off just 800 a fortnight, I don’t drink, or smoke, unfortunatelty I have made some silly decisions with money and if I could go back in time I would change them, I am currently boarding with some very different people who don’t treat my husky (elvis) the way he should be treated, I need someones help to get me enough money so that I can afford my own house to rent. Its pretty tough for me at the moment and its been this way since February, I’m not one to ask for something like this and I wouldn’t if I didn’t have to.
If there is anyone out there that can help me, I will be forever grateful in such a time like this.
Kind regards,

I am in desperate need of money. I have two small sons who needs diapers, formula, food and a house to live in. Right now me and my husband is living with his parents and its hard to live in a small house with 6 people. We have to sleep in a small bedroom with our two kids. There’s hardly any room to move around between our bed, a toddler bed and a crib, tv and dressers. Also my kids are not suppose to be around cigarette smoke and that’s all his parents do in the house.

I AM ONE LUCKY WOMAN!!
I have a fabulous family, a (mostly) secure job. I have been, blessedly, healthy. WHY THEN am I on this site basically begging for donations?
Well, after years of struggling after my husband lost his job we faced foreclosure. We filed for bankruptcy but now we can’t make our regular bills due to the wage attachment. My husband, who managed to find a part-time job lost some of his hours there, of course, after we filed bankruptcy.
We have family who have helped us and we have helped over the years but it seems we have all reached that wall.
I would like to get out from under our mortgage which is $65,000. But any bit we get is so appreciated.
May your journey be filled with light and love and your heart warmed from within!
Thank you, Marmar

I know the reasons for my request is a small problem compared to others but all I want is to fix 2 damaged front teeth that is all I ask for. If you’re a dentist and would do it for a reduced fee or free contact me.
December 28th, 2011 at 1:09 pm
I don’t know if anyone will ever read this but I am going to take a chance. I am 63 years old and have worked for 48 years straight. I have a wonderful husband and 4 children and 8 grandchildren. I have always been a hard worker. I want to retire so bad but due to the economy I can’t. I just wanted to ask for help financially. We are in the process of losing our home and I am trying to come up with money for that. Is there anyone out there that can help? I have never asked for something like this but I am so tired. I have always been a giving person and as a Christian I have done everything I can to help others. I hope someone hears my plea. I just want to retire and be able to pay my bills. Thank you for listening

I am looking for help to start publishing my book.
The cost is $5999.00 for 500 hardback books. Because it is a children’s book and I painted colored illustrations…The cover needs to be hardback(which costs more). Two books to start is $11,998.00.
I was working two jobs. I was laid off in April 2011. Now, my part-time job(Kmart) may close their doors, as well.
So, I want to turn my life around and become a children book writer.
My book is in the Library of Congress. I already have a copyrite on the book.
There are many publishers that want to sign authors up for free..But, the truth is when free – there are consequences.
The free means that they take the royalities and the author doesn’t get the money to buy new books.
This is why I want to get help to publish my own book. This way the royalities can be reinvested back into new books for the public.
I want to see my dream come true and become an author on print.
I ask for only $1.00 per person. This way I will make my publication a reality, and it won’t hurt you for money.
If you do help me…Please know that I appreciate this with all my heart.
God Bless you!
Sincerely,
Ruth Saylor

I am so sorry, I do not have a website as of yet. But I will start with my story. I live in a county that is poor as I am and even when they were better off finanialy they still didn’t help the animal situation. They kill the animals in the shelter with the hot gas. My heart screems with horror at what happen to these beautiful creatures begging for help. I want so terribly to help them more than I do but have exhausted all my means. We have animals now that need to be fixed and get there shots and I have no way of doing that. Their eyes are sad and their bodies are weary. We get more hound dogs during and after hunting season. I wish our state would go to hunting with no dogs. I have helped hundreds in time past and I still will not allow even one animal to come across my path that I do not help. But dear God, I need help to help them. My days are long and tireless. I want to spay and neuter as many animals as I can to stop this gassing and mistreatment and abuse. I have a meeting with our county manager because I was made aware that someone witnessed one of our dog catchers break a dogs neck and threw him into the back of his truck. I will confirm that at the meeting in Jan. The thing is it takes a lot of money for all the vet bills and dog food, beds, warm places to sleep, shots and normal medical bills as well as the spay and neutering. The kindness of a human being is the only hope these little fellows have. Let us please not let them down. If your heart stings tug for them please open it up. I do have pictures and would be more than happy to send them to anyone who would like to see them. I have two now that need to go back to the doctor. God Bless and Help me to Help them please. I will email anyone any information and pictures they need. I am honest and I am only trying to reach out to the world to our cause.

Well, I am a college student at a local university. My story is that I am the oldest of three and I am being raised by a single mother. My father has not and will not pay for any part of my education. Long story short my father no longer recognizes me as his daughter. I have a teenage sister who is starting to drive and a preteen brother. My mother pays for everything herself. I do have a seasonal job but I do not have enough to cover my college costs. I have accepted the maximum amount of loans that I am allowed to and I still have a significant amount left over. My mother can only pay. I do not want her to pay because I know the struggle she is going through along with taking care of my younger siblings. I need about $800 in order to enroll for the next semester. Please keep me in your prayers. I need help.
December 31st, 2011 at 8:21 pm
Please Please someone take notice in our accomplishments and benifits. We honestly feel as if all the ones that said they were believing in us has turned their backs only because of our age. I was able to start up 3 working small business companies by the age of 20. To be simple we have always had to accomplish and survive on our own and in the time that we have needed the smallest amount of financial help needed to at least pay for our home rent and office rent. We feel we have given out all the help needed for everyone to recieve help but left us once they were in better positions. I love to help people and there is more satisfaction there. To be simple we need an immediate small amount of financial help and lots of love to restart our dreams and give us hope please and happy new years to all i wish you all the best.:)

Good evening, my name is Rachel and I am a 37 yr. old single mom. I am in debt by $50,000 and i am not finding any way out. I have tried several banks and credit unions only to be denied to having poor credit. My family is unable to help as well. I have exhausted all known resources. This is my last hope. I suffer from constant high blood pressure that medication does not help. I am constantly stressed and depressed over the financial situation. Please help. I am begging with tears. Thank you and God Bless.

Hello,
I have never begged for help before and I am ashamed, but I am asking anyway. Steve and I live in Burlington, North Carolina. It started in 1999 with a car accident. I was hurt in my neck. Then my husbands knee went out. We had surgery 2 weeks apart. I didn’t get much better and became disabled. With both of us down, we ended up losing our home. We were married in our home. We finally found a run down house that we could afford. My husband went back to work and things were good again. Then he got transferred on his job to another town, so we moved. We rented a couple of houses and then we were able to buy some land with a double wide manufactured home. Finally my own home again. In 2008, I woke up with a back ache and from that day on it was unbearable. I was trying to go to the Doctors and get this fixed by myself, because the Company my husband worked for never allowed him time off, not even for his wife. Well, I had a severely ruptured disc at L-5 S-1 in my low back. I had to wait for the allotted amount of time before they could do surgery on me. I cried every day, from July 2008 until September 23, 2008. The surgery was a success. By 2009, my disc re ruptured and they were scheduling me for another surgery, but my husbands other knee went out. He had surgery April 6, 2009 and I had surgery June 5, 2009. Here we both are having surgeries not far apart again. After my husband’s surgery, he was not able to return to work because of limitations and now he is disabled. My back surgery was not a success. We could not pay for our home now. My husband applied for disability, but that takes time to get. In the meantime, they were trying to get me scheduled for back surgery in September 2009. Then I woke up with my arm hurting and come to find out a disc in my neck was pinching my spinal cord. Now, I have already had 2 previous neck surgeries; once in 1993 and the other in 1999. We ended up losing our home again. My husband took me to my Mother’s house, and he went back to the other town and moved us out by himself with bad knees. We stayed with my Mother for a while. They had to cancel my back surgery and perform another surgery on my neck in November 2009. Now I have C-3-4-5-6-7 fused in my neck with a metal plate and screws. My whole spine is not good. I have arthritis in my whole spine. Finally, my neck heals enough that they can perform my last (3rd) back surgery with metal and screws in April 2010. The disc was so messed up that my vertebrates were bone on bone. I have several other medical problems also. I have had 11 surgeries in my life. After about 6 months, we had to get out of my Mother’s house because of family issues, so we rented a house. My husband’s disability has come in. He goes to Church a lot, but I have become a recluse in a sort. I hurt every day. Times are not good for us and I feel so insecure and know that at any time I may have to have another surgery on my neck. I am a walking time bomb. Between the 2 of us on fixed income; we are barely making it. Not being about to get any help because they say we make to much income, but when you can’t buy groceries, go to the Doctor because you can’t afford the co-pay,and need to go to the Dentist but you can’t afford that and having to make do while being broke just waiting for the next check to come in, I am so stressed out. Another of my disabilities are my bad nerves and depression. We need a 3 bedroom house that is donated to my husband and I. Something, that my furniture fits in and we can get around with space not almost falling, because of to small a house. We need a decent home that the rent or the payments are low enough that we can get medical issues addressed and not have to worry about enough food in the home. We do not have children to take care of us. We try to take care of each other with both of us falling apart. Already, my husband is having pain in his knees again and my medical problems keep growing with heels spurs that we can’t hardly walk. We have lost 2 homes due to medical issues and my health is not getting any better. Please someone donate us a home that we can finally have a little quality of life. Steve is only 56 and myself 50, but with our medical issues, especially mine; I don’t see hope in my future to live secure and not constantly worry about us having a home. Thanks and may the Lord be with you with many Blessings.

I feel kinda foolish for this but right now i dont know what else to do. My names taylor im 20 yrs old from illinois and i have a seven month old son. Everything had been going well for us until recently when my husband decided to come clean about his affair with my best friend…. we tried to make things work but they ultimately ended when he kicked me and truman out in the middle of the night keeping his car seat his formula his clothes and a lrge chunk of toys.. his reasoning being that hed need those things when truman was with him. so now ive found myself jobless carless living with my mom again i dont even have a phone anymore. All of that i can work out in time but not having a car seat and the things i need for him anymore is the worst feeling ive ever had. my little boy is the sweetest most amazing part of my life and i dont know what i would do with out him. his smile is what makes everything okay for me now i just have to find someway to make everything okay for him he deserves the best and it kills me that im recently not able to give him it. even if you cant help right now thank you for listening.

I have always been a single mother and have been employed since the age of 15 and I still work 5 days one week and 6 days the next. Due to my divorce years back I have no credit. This is the worst shape my life has ever been in. Ive rented the same tiny 2 bedroom apartment and can barely afford it. The engine blew up in my car over a year ago so Ive been without a car. Not asking for a direct handout just asking for someone to have enough faith and trust in me to help me back on my feet. I have no family except my kids and I feel they have helped to much it hurts.

Hey everyone– me here. I know this isn’t the best way or best place to do this but I don’t know what else to do at this point. My husband and I have worked hard this past year paying off all of our debt but have just a few more accounts that are going to judgment– funny word. Neither of us feel like we are judgmental people and have worked many years in a counseling role within the religious community. I am also a veteran who has become totally disabled. I am waiting on SSDI to help with our income but right now we are living– like so many people– paycheck to paycheck. There is an attorney’s office suing me for credit card debt accounts which became deliquent in 2009 when I could no longer work. My husband is working part time but has to be home to help with the chores around the house that I can no longer do on my own. Besides that, he is at retirement age and is doing all he can do. All I am looking for is someone who can carry 9000.00 for a period of 3 years or less– depending on when my SSDI is approved or the VA gives me an increase in disability. We have tried family and friends but no one is able to help us with this right now. We would give the shirt off our backs to help anyone in need. Would someone please do the same in our time of need? Thanks and God bless.
January 12th, 2012 at 3:50 pm
I am drowning in debt and behind on my mortgage and my car payment. I need help to try to get back on track.

We really need help to stay in our home and keep our car. Please anything will help we need around $1500. Please help
January 15th, 2012 at 7:14 pm
Hi! Well, this is an absolute strange thing for me to do, but one learns quickly to swallow pride and ask fellow God loving people for help…since 2006 my life has been a down spiral… my husband, whom was a supermarket manager in South Africa at the time, had a heart attack, he survived but wat re admitted to hospital on a monthly basis,the problem was to be “guessed” either lungs or heart, between the drs looking after him, anyway, after the umpteenth time back in hospital, he was asked to take early retirement, so he lost his job (which he was barely able to do anyway) The place i worked for, burnt down to the ground, so all of a sudden, BOTH where without jobs, with his pension payout after 5 years service with the company we came to england (I have a Dutch passport)wich allows eu nationals and their family to live and work there.. He was barely in th UK when he was hospitalized again, and again and again, finally he got heart surgery and his condition was stabilized, I am the only breadwinner and only work 12 hours a week,living at my sisters and I have now come upon a business Idea (allready existing in several countries and the Uk)I would need 10 000 pounds to get fully functional, as it includes a vehicle and equipment for the task, this is my only chance, please people, I ask you from the bottom of my heart, please help me to give my husband a better life, as he cannot work,I have the drive, the ambition to make this work, but NO bank will look at me.. I BEG YOU IN JESUS NAME!!!
January 16th, 2012 at 9:18 am
Please help me…I living in UK,but I would like go back to my country, I need 2000 pounds.Please help.

Hello, Our situation is probably one that most people would not even consider in planning for their yearly budgets and that is how we came to this precarious position. I came back from Afghanistan more than 15 months ago (while earning my MBA downrange). However, I haven’t been able to find a good job or even one that pays 100% of my families monthly expenses. So, we have had to live off of our savings. Then, my wife became a victim of an internet scam. She was targeted through Facebook and they milked her for $40,000. Not to mention other things around our apartment are breaking and we don’t have money to fix them. I have tried many things however it looks like we maybe at the end of our rope. Bottom line is with all of the bad things going on our savings are down to zero. It is very important to get an immediate infusion of over $5,000 as soon as possible.

Thank You.
January 22nd, 2012 at 5:49 pm
Hello:
I’ve never done this before and wouldn’t be doing this if I felt there was any other recourse. I am pleading for help…
My wife and I are truly undergoing the of our lifetimes.
I lost my job in 2010 after 28 years of working for various government and non-government organizations as an environmental professional. Since then I’ve been working off-and-on (retail, UPS holiday-helper, part-time work, etc.) for minimum wage while continuing to apply for other positions in and outside of my field of expertise (in and outside the state).
My wife is a Hospice Nurse. Her son (my step-son) was diagnosed with cancer in 2009, and he did not have insurance (he was 25). Fortunately he survived (lymphoma is in remission), but the medical bills over-whelmed us.
These are very difficult times for many other people and I realize that we are not alone in this struggle. I must admit that we’ve had an unusual two years of one nightmarish challenge after another. We managed to survive up until now, paying the rent and living the minimum as a couple possibly can.
Churches have given us food and paid some of our utilities and our families have done everything they could. We’ve been selling family heirlooms, had garage sales, and sold things, that we considered treasures, that we had gathered over our lifetimes to help with the bills.
My wife had nervous break-down in May 2011, was temporarily hospitalized, and after denying her disability, her employer (the largest corporate Hospice company in the world) laid-her-off on November 30th. Since we were both unemployed we couldn’t keep up with the $1400 per month COBRA medical insurance so we lost all of our medical insurance coverage. Surviving had become even more difficult.
My wife started a new job at a different Hospice last Monday, so that is good news. New medical insurance should kick-in within a month or so. This was huge in terms of our hoping that life was making a turn for the better.
We were unable to pay rent during December and January so we are two months behind in our rent payment. I had called our property manager last week and explained our situation stating that we would be catching-up on our rent given the recent job my wife had started. They indicated that they were willing to work with us and it wouldn’t be a problem.
Today (January 21, 2012) we received a letter containing a “Five Day Notice to Pay or Quit” stating that if we didn’t pay $2,876.62 by January 25th, an eviction action will be filed against us. This, just one week after my wife started her new Hospice job (seven months after her nervous breakdown). She won’t get her first paycheck until this Friday, January 26th.
I have not yet told my wife about the eviction letter. I don’t want her to have another breakdown, especially during her second week of work.
After two years, we are truly overwhelmed, out-of-options with no help in sight. I was hoping that with my wife’s first check, we could start catching-up on our rent payment but they won’t give us an extra day (the 29th) anyway, so I guess it wouldn’t make a difference.
We’ve spent our careers and lives trying to make a living like everyone else but, perhaps naively, we have also tried to give of ourselves what we could to make the world a better place and to comfort those suffering during their last days. I know it’s a cold world, but I thought by now that I would have a job that pays more than minimum wage and I certainly did not foresee the two years of hell that we were to endure.
I am 51, my wife is 48 and we have three dogs and one cat. We have nowhere to go if evicted. We can’t get a loan or sell anything else that we already haven’t. We were so close… with my wife’s new job and my continuing to work at whatever I find. This is truly the end of the line for us.
If someone out there is able and willing to help us, give us a loan, offer me a decent paying job, or recommend a solution or another place or person to go to for help, I guess that is what I am asking.
If you are interested in helping us, please let me know and I’ll give you our names and any other information you need so that you can confirm that our situation is real and this is not a scam or that I’m doing this because I am just looking for an easy way out….
I am truly worried about my wife. She has been through so much and I don’t know how to tell her about today’s letter.
I pray and hope that someone is out there who can help us. A loan, a job… anything. Please…
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I wish you blessings and happiness, whether you can help us or not (I know we are not alone).

Found this by accident and praying my prayers will be answered. I have many things to be thankful for. My health, my children. I have a husband that is emotionally unstable. We are nearly broke, We have a retail business that we both operate on our own . It’s so depressing because we can’t get ahead. .Money is day by day to live on. I have 6 to take care of and a daughter that’s not able to be in my home because of conflicts between step dad that’s stupid, he’s very hateful. I’m scared of his actions and can’t break free from it. My daughter can’t work because of seziures and is trying to get finacial help. It’s not coming quick enough. I only live on my love for the Lord and happiness for my family. Will you pplease help?

I have been going through breast cancer for a while now I just had the right side masectomy done 2 weeks and the left side done months ago. I have a 4 year old granddaughter that lives with me and I am doing the best I can, I need help please paying my utilities, my disability check only covers my rent and I can’t pay utilities, I had my car repode last month so I don’t have that payment anymore. I don’t need much just a little help please this is such a hard thing to go through. Thank you so much.
January 31st, 2012 at 10:16 am
I am seriously in need of money to pay off a small amount owed on my car, OR money to continue my car payments so I won’t lose my car. My car payments are $296.71 a month (due the 23rd of every month) to GM Financial. If I lose my car, I cannot work. I owe a little over $2,500 on my car. I just went through a bankruptcy, but kept my car so I could find work. I’ve applied for more than 40 jobs with no success. PLEASE HELP! My integrity is all I have left, and hunger knows no status. I am a Believer in Jesus Christ, and in God’s Holy Word, we are told to ask and we shall receive. I am humbling myself before people I do not know, and in my real life seeking a financial breakthrough. Many crisis – known and unknown – are what put me in this situation today. I cannot cry over spilled milk any longer. I looked myself in the mirror this morning, and forgave myself for always looking out for everyone but myself. I am now not able to help myself. I stay with a daughter who is struggling alone with three children, and the last thing she needs is me not being able to take care of myself. I have no way to obtain housing for myself, no way to buy personal toiletries for myself, and no way to change my drivers license from Colorado to Florida, although the church went with me to the DMV, and paid through the benevolence fund for me to switch my car’s registration to the sate of florida, and get tags for my car. I have only been in that church six months, and they helped me. God bless them! I am sixty years old, so cannot file for social security for 2 more years. I don’t qualify for financial assistance. I’ve already been turned down because I do not have minor children. They did just approve me for foodstamps of $200 per month until I get back to work. I do not understand why it is taking forever for someone to hire me. I’ve always been used to taking care of myself since age seventeen. Now, I’m on a public website begging for strangers to help me. I am a giver always. It’s always been hard for me to receive, but here I am with open arms, and a very humble heart asking for financial help. If God puts it in your heart to reach out to me financially, or to just call GM Financial and pay off my car, or even make a payment on my car directly to them, God bless you!

My names jade and i’m 20 years old. I am currently employed full time but I get less than minimum wage and because I work for a small company locally they can’t afford to give me a pay rise. For the past few years I’ve had the odd loan here and there but when my father tragically died last year, my mother doesn’t work and I’ve been trying to support us financially ever since (because It’s been extremely hard being on less than minimum wage. I’ve tried to search for other jobs that pay more, but in these times it’s very hard to find jobs! So therefore I’ve had to take our several loans which means I’m not in debt. I try not to tell my mother about this as I know it will worry her. I’m now overdue on serveral loans/bills, meaning heating, phone line, water etc will be cut off. I’m so so worried and don’t see a way out anymore. My debts come to serveral 1000. I just need some sort of help for anyone please. Any donation would make a drastic difference to my life. Being only 20 I feel I’ve been through too much bad luck for someone so young. Just trying to get a break. Please help if you can, it will be greatly appriciated. Thank you.

I am a single mommy of 2 beautiful kids. At age 18,I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. I am 27 now. My son was born in 2003,3 months preemie with a bowel obstruction. He now suffers from numerous other medical hanicaps that are also life threatening. Yet he always has a smile on his face:-) My daughter was also preemie but healthy, thank God.We did have a place of our own, but moved out and back home with my parents, due to the father of my kids becoming physically abusive towards me in front of the kids. I have been put on food stamps and medicaid and tried to recieve help through non profit organizations. But with them not having enough funding, I could not get help. I feel like I owe my parents so much. Although I have never recieved that emotional tlc from them, they do help financially as much as they can. But now that dad has heart problems and moms english is limited(shes from south korea), they cannot work and are struggeling themselves. They only have a little more to pay on their mortgage and both car payments but cannot seem to finacially keep up. I cannot work due to my condition and my sons.. Id love for my kids and i to have a place of our own again to call home. I can financially pay for our own place, but no one really wants to rent to a disabled,single unemployed mom whom is only getting ssi and child support. i have no car,am 27, no home,I feel useless and unimportant. I feel like a failure. I am sad. I cry every night praying to God that all I want is my kids to be happy and have a good life.. A great life. After everything theyve been through, they deserve it. I am trying my best. But it is so hard. I am a failure… But I keep going. i wont give up….I just wish i knew how to go on…

Hi, I’m really really desperate. I lost my job TWO YEARS ago and my home six months ago. Not ever Walmart or Taco Bell wants to hire me. I’m 50 and broke.
I don’t see any way out of this crisis, so unless something extraordinary happens soon, I’ll be forced to commit SUICIDE. So be it. Really sad though considering that’s it’s going to devastate my daughter.

Hello,
I sincerely thank you for taking out the time to read this message. I have been a hard worker all of my life, despite several setbacks. I have been taking care of myself since I was 16 after years of living in foster homes, and was able to start college at 17. I worked my way through college and recently graduated with two bachelors degrees (I was enrolled in a dual major) with high honors, and started a new job two months after graduation. Unfortunately, the company began making budget cuts and at the beginning of this year, I lost my position after only a few months. I was getting settled into my position and enjoyed the work I was doing, so it came as a major disappointment. I have been looking for work and interviewing, but have yet secure another job. I have about $25,000 in debt that I am feeling very hopeless. I do not have any family to rely on, and I live with two roommates in order to try to share and reduce expenses as much as possible. At present I am at risk of being homeless, and losing everything I have worked hard to obtain. This situation has affected me in ways I never would have imagined, and I have fallen into a depression as a result. I would like to receive therapy and treatment, but I do not have health insurance. I am still working hard towards getting back on my feet, I just need some help and encouragement. If anyone is able to donate anything at all to my situation, I will be forever grateful. I am actually a very generous person, and will definitely keep my word, as my word is my bond. I am definitely willing to give more details about my situation. I have never begged for anything in my life, so I do not wish to sound desperate, but this is indeed a desperate situation! I am a sincere person, who has lived a moral and responsible life. I have always surrounded myself around positive people who can vouch for my character. Thank you!

I need some money to buy a Photography camera and some equipment as It always been my dream. Right now I’m working as a volunteer and have no wage (Missionary Volunteer). If anyone can help it will be gratefully appreciated. If I’m able to collect enough money I will send photos to the people that helped of my work.
February 16th, 2012 at 9:47 am
I’m praying that this may be the source of a miracle. I’ve had an unpleasant life by most standards. Beginning with abusive, alcoholic parents who eventually drove me to run away at the age of 17. I experienced a different kind of abuse as a result. I later married, and had children, one of whom died of cot-death. A couple of years later, my husband abandoned my children and I, after becoming involved and starting another family with another woman. He has never paid a stitch of child support. Over the following years, I have struggled to keep my family above water, had my old car stolen twice (the last time three years ago and have not since had the money to replace it)and had a close family member steal my inheritance twice (once after the death of my father and then he got my mother to sign over the family home while she was in a drunken stupor). Finally, I lost my job 7 months ago when the store I worked for closed down. I am now 49 years old, exhausted, discouraged, owe $5000 in rent and on the verge of being evicted. I’ve never felt that my financial problems are for others to sort out, but I’ve tried for years to get on my feet and yet I can’t seem to get enough money together to move forward. I am an artist and I try to make a living out of my ability but I don’t have the luxury of waiting for artwork to sell. I also do cake decorating but without transport to deliver goods, the orders don’t come close to paying the bills. I have a few opportunities but again, require me to have my own transport. If anyone is financially able to transform my life, I would believe in miracles again. I’ll also be praying for answers to the pleas of all the others I see on this site. May God bless you all.

I’m a college student $10,000 in debt from student loans. I lost my job, my parents’s house is going on foreclosure and my parents have declared bankruptcy. I moved out 6 months ago to make the load lighter on them. My car broke down, so I don’t have a car now, I don’t have money. I don’t have enough credit for anything. My rent of 500 is due in 5 days.

I need help in paying my husband John medical expense. We need to pay a hospital bill that is over $2,000. We have met our limit. So our Insurance will not pay anymore. We have 2 Insurances. Funny thing. That they cannot help us. Any gift can be used as tax deductible. Your help is very much appreciated. My husband John is going to be needing hearing aids. They are going to cost about $3,000 to $4,000 and then possibly he might need new glasses. That is going to cost about $900.00. Any donation or montary gift at this time. Will be greatly appreciated. The sooner we can get any type of montary gift will be greatly appreciated. My husband John is a diabectic 2 and his health always changes from one day to the next. We are trying really hard to keep him well.

Hello, I am writing this email today because I am in need of about £5.000. I am wanting this money to pay for legal fees in a recent divorce. I have paid my solicitor all the monies owed throughout the divorce which lasted for almost 3yrs, but I have just had a invoice today for £700 which I just simply cannot pay as I am overdrawn at my bank to the amount of about £600. The rest of the money I am wanting to help finance starting my own online business, and to have some float that I can live off during this process. This money I can return, because I know my online business will be a success for me, but I am requesting money at this moment because I need a little help to get me there. I know my situation in life isn’t as critical as some of the people who have requested financial assistance on this site. But I would like to think that through having success in my online business venture, that I would one day return to this site, read of the financial assistance that people are in need of, and be in a position to help. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Kindest regards
John

However, I am not having much luck in succeding in this endevour due to a run of bad luck when it comes to finances.
Bottom-line is that I want to be able to survive and take care of my bedts. I just the the backing of someone willing to help me restructure my debt

Hello,
My name is Jeremy Glover, I am reaching out to you today because I, along with many others, feel that I am an exceptional graphic artist with tremendous potential. What I would like to do, with your assistance, is to capitalize on that talent, and I’d like to explain how.
I have built a huge fan base online with my designs over the past year, which I would be more than happy to elaborate on to the right investor. I’m asking for your help. I am 38 years old, married and have a 6 year old daughter; this is my one true chance to make a run at something I am really gifted at and enjoy doing.
I am requesting a loan in the amount of $10,000.00 to utilize for startup costs of my business. I can guarantee a full repayment of the loan along with a pre-agreed upon amount of interest for an investor in under 11 months. Upon repayment of the principle and interest, I will also provide one full year of complimentary graphic design work to my investor. I humbly ask your assistance in realizing this opportunity.
The funding I am requesting will specifically cover equipment and initial printing costs for the tee shirts that I have designed. I will furnish a detailed list and budget upon request.
Despite residing in a very rural area (Kanab, UT), I have managed to amass thousands of fans from the University of Oregon football team because my designs are so popular. I have numerous designs to utilize, all exclusively designed by me, and none of which infringe upon any trademarks of Nike or the UofO.
In less than a year, I have skyrocketed with popularity and become very recognized by some heavy hitters and super fans of Oregon’s football team. Many individuals and organizations have expressed a strong interest in collaborating with me on distributing my designs, but due to lack of good equipment, I have shied away from these opportunities. I am hoping that with your help, I won’t have to turn down another opportunity and we can both benefit.
If I could obtain the proposed funding for the equipment needed to manufacture and distribute my designs, I would be entering into the field as potentially one of the premier Oregon Ducks Football independent designers. This has the very real potential to impact other sports, such as basketball and baseball as well. With your investment, success can be limitless.
I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss this business plan with you further. I thank you in advance for your consideration, and look forward to speaking with you soon. I will follow up with a phone call later this week, after you’ve had some time to consider.
Kind regards,
Jeremy Glover

My name is Clemence Dusabe and I’m 16 years old. This year I was invited to travel with a program called People to People Student Ambassador to go to Europe for twenty days. But with every great opportunity there comes a price. This program would give me extra credits for high school and can help me on my resume to go to college. We will be going to England, France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. It is an opportunity to learn about the geography, history, government, and culture of the places we visit. We will also do community work, and go to school there. To go to this program I have to pay $6,499. My parents would love for me to go but they can’t afford it. I’m asking if there’s a way you can help, and if you can’t, please help by praying for me on this trip and for it to happen. Thank you and God bless.

I don’t want a handout. I want an investment to take to my loan modification business to the next level. I just need a breather. I feel like I am drowning. I have helped so many people save their homes, but because I have a really big heart, I often get paid very little if at all. I have started becoming more serious about my loan mod business, an have advertised on the craigslists types of sites for two weeks straight with back to back posts. I know that if I had a solid investment of $5,000, that would be enough to get a website, advertise and start getting calls in. There are people out there that need help and I am good at what I do. I am two months behind on my rent, have no gas to get to work (at a bk attorney’s office – they pay me under the table to do their loan mods), live on chicken and rice (thank God) but truly feel like I am spiraling down. If anyone chose to help me, I would offer them a percentage of each client’s fee and partnership in the business.

My dad was just diagnosed with the lung cancer. He never smoked his whole life…
He is going through chemotherapy and tries to stay positive but it breaks my heart that even now he still has to work in order to support himself ( in my country the health insurance is terrible) I would give him everything if I could but don’t have enough money myself.
My dad is trying to stay positive but he is very scared. It’s all so shocking and seems so unfair! Makes me think- why do bad people live and don’t have to go through such a hurt…
We don’t know how his battle will end but my only wish is to make him feel at least a little better so he doesn’t have to work during this hard time.
I’m begging you for help

Hi my name is Juliana Im happily married with 3 children. Like many others on this site the bills are high especially our mortgage it has not been paid for 4 months we are currently owing £7,000GBPin arrears . I was offered a job on Monday and by Thursday the job was withdrawn because of the security vetting I did not pass due to the mortgage deafult.

I am a mother of twin 3 year old girls. Prior to being born, I was hospitalized for 50 days. Following their birth, they had to be hospitalized for a month due to their prematurity. They are exceptionally healthy, and never looked back once leaving the hospital several years ago. However, I haven’t faired so well. Since going through a lack of income during my time and their time in the hospital, I have faced foreclosure on my home. I was able to avoid this by taking out undesirable loans. I unfortuately turned to payday loans as well. I am very desperate and since I have terrible credit, I am unable to acaquire a loan. Can somebody please help? Thank you for considering my plea.

I’ve always lived my life with the “Pay it forward” belief. Anytime someone needs help, whatever type it might be, if its in my power to help, I do. I believe somewhere down the road they will help someone else
I have been out of work for about a year. And we have been so broke some days we can’t afford to pay attention
but things always work out. Even without a dime to my name, I still believe in helping others.
Well this time things have not fallen into place. I have a collection agreement pmt that was due yesterday $300. And I can’t find anyway to come up with the money. Car title loan was denied, my only piece of jewelry is a tiffany bracelet that I can’t get$50 for.
If anyone has any ideas I’m willing to try almost anything. I’m not looking for a hand out. Just a helping hand
Thank you

Hello everyone, my name is Kaylen. Thankyou for taking out the time to read my request. Recently my husband and I split up. He was providing for our family’s financial needs. I lost my job about a year back. Now my three kids and I are left without knowing how we will have food or how the bills will be paid. My oldest son recently dropped out of college to look for a job.
March 28th, 2012 at 5:45 am
Please, I need someone to buy our home. I won’t make anything off of you. Its almost paid off and we are going to lose it. I have sold everything except for what is necessary for our three children. I have been ill for four months now. I need heart surgery , it can wait. I need my family to have a home if I don’t make it atleast they will still have this doublewide. I’ve done fantastic work on homes that cost millions and here I am asking for help to keep a broken down doublewide. What is wrong with this place? Why would God let this go on? Our children haven’t lived long enough to do anything to anyone. I don’t understand anymore. Somwhere along the line I thought I had suffered enough so my kids wouldn’t have to,it seems we are living/or dying in hell. No matter what happens to us, God bless all of you and please don’t lose hope and faith. This can’t be it, it just can’t be. J.B.

I am not up to date on using internet. My husband and myself work as much as we can but still can not seem to make ends meet. To top it all off our three year old burnt his hand yesterday and we had to overdraw our bank account to get the cream the Dr. prescribed we can’t afford our rent this month. Anything would be greatly appreciated. I don’t try to ask for help in most cases we just struggle through but we can’t seem to do that now we are getting further behind and with no way to catch up..thanks on advance for anything..with God all things are possible.
March 29th, 2012 at 2:30 am
I am amazed at home much poor health can affect us financially. I live in the UK and have been back and forth to the Doctor for two years. They have finally listened and diagnosised virginal cancer. I’m now panicking for my family. On death my mortgage will be paid off. However we had some work done and a new car a couple of years ago amounting to £35,000. My husband was made redundant and I was at university but we paid what we could to our debt. Now I have advanced virginal cancer and am worried that as soon as the mortgage is paid buy the insurance the debt companies will take the house or make my husband sell itll the debt is in his name. We have three sons aged 10, 12 and 17. My husband has a new job that he travels 80 miles to and from but the cost of childcare will be no different from paying a mortgage.
Does anyone one have any advice please?

I have worked since right out of high school and am doing the best that I can. Both of my grown children(early 20′s) need money to get dental work done. Six to seven thousand a piece.

I am tired and cant do it anymore! Thanks for letting me vent some frustration!!

I’m facing divorce because my wife has been waiting for me to find a job. I owe $1000 to keep my utilities on beforte they disconnect mi in two weeks. I have two beautiful daughters and don’t want to lose my family. I can’t find a good job because I have one hand and two felonies for burglary. I’m going to college in 6 months but I can’t find a way to get by until then. I’m having suicidal thoughts because of the stress and depression of being stuck in this rut. Heeelp!

Help. I am desperate or I wouldn’t be on here. I have fallen behind in bills and am struggling to stay afloat and keep my family together. I don’t want to be a disappointment to them. I don’t need a lot and I am looking for a loan not a gift. $2500 would do the trick. I pray that someone reads this and finds mercy upon me and helps me before I lose all that is important to me and I don’t mean monetary things. I mean my family. Please. Help.

Where would someone get help if they were to ask for financial help? I don’t want to go posting on sites if its against rules, but I have a paypal and even if someone where to help me with even $5 it would change my day…I’m in a really bad situation and the help would be amazing, I know we’re all pretty much in a bad situation, but I was always told growing up that it never hurts to ask…is there a site or place to post where you can actually ask for help?
I’m an artist/advertiser, moved to AZ from another state in the midwest, looking for work but as many know its crazy hard out there. I have friends that say I should really look into modeling cause of the natural barbie look I have going, I say natural because I just have that look, I didn’t do any plastic surgery to get it lol…but I don’t think modeling is really a good way to make money these days…and my bachelors in Graphic Designs didn’t seem to get me anywhere because there are sooo many ppl doing that nowadays…so yay to that school for taking all my money years ago and it going no where.
I just need a breather…a moment where every meal isn’t eggs…does anyone know where I could post to ask for help?

we need $530 000.00 to open the first of a kind retreat in the world.
Our mission:
We aim to see people that society and people themselves has thrown away and left for ever recovering and not healing due to the notion that addiction is decease and cannot be cured. We aim to guide people through this process and help them claim their rightful place back into society and stand their place full in an even better way that before. By guiding these people we create a free and conducive world, for our children to be born into. We make the difference, SIMPLE. We provide a free after care for the people that complete the two week program.
Our vision:
We strive to work towards a common direction regarding treatment for addiction without the aid of medication and give people back their self-worth. We aim to see all rehabilitation clinics and centres to adopt the same approach to have people get back into society and make a difference. We see people not repeatedly going back for treatment and have fundamental principles that are of high moral standards, self-love and respect. We envisage a free society that does not take on any culture handed down by society, just because there is a belief that there is no another way and it was always done in this manner.
We see a balanced humanity serving each other with all our heart.

Hello. I’m a retired US Air Force veteran who served faithfully for 20 years. Although serving for that long was a great accomplishment, I also had to retire for medical reasons which the Air Force would deemed “unfit.” I’m in desperate need of money as my retired pay is half of what I used to make when I was still in, and I’m still awaiting an answer from the Veterans Administration about my compensation. At one time I had vast amounts of money as back-up, but certain people been asking me for loans with promises of repayment only for them to ignore me when I ask for them to pay me back when I’m in need. All of this has taken a big toll on me to the point that I’m nearly depleated of my reserved money, and I barely getting by now after mortgage payments and the rest of my bills. I don’t know who you are, but I could use some help. If I could get as much as $5,000, that would help me out tremendously until I hear more about my VA compensation. Thank you for reading my message and may God bless you for all you do.

Hi
I am stuck in France in a job I cannot live on, I work as a teacher. I so desperately want to leave, but I can’t. I barely have money for food, and the rent is a nightmare every month, and next month I won’t be able to pay it.
I am so desperate, and lonely in a country that does not like foreigners that much, if at all. I have had a paypal button on my blog for months, but nothing has come of it. I have canceled everything just to pay for food and electricity etc.
Please help me, anything will do, anything. I just need to get back on my feet, pay my rent and then maybe I can begin to save up to get out of Paris.
They will have the right to put me on the street next month, kick me out of my studio apartment if the rent is late… again. I am really frightened. I have nowhere to go….
Please, please help me….

I recently moved to SC with my daughter(8yrs)to help out my mother bc my brother was no longer able to do it. My mother has totally whipped out all of her savings to try and help with the bills and food. I am doing all that I can do but our landlord has now served us with eviction papers and demands us to be out in 5 days. We own the trailer but to move it is going to cost us $3-5,000. I just don’t understand how we are supposed to come up with that much money in such a short amount of time while being on such a fixed income. We having been praying for an answer then a friend told us about this website. If anyone could help us in anyway, money or moving the trailer, we would be so great full. God Bless!!!

I am so embarrassed and completely ashamed to be doing this but I have no other option. After I split with my fiancé last year I have got myself into some serious debt- around 10k with various payday lenders. He used to handle all of our finances and when we split I just lost control and have got myself into a mess I can’t get myself out of. I kept borrowing to pay off existing debts which has made the situation 10 times worse. I’m now at the stage where I’m selling my belongings just to get by as these lenders just keep deducting money from my bank account left right and centre even though I have a minus balance. I’m so depressed right now I just don’t know what to do. If anyone can help or point me in the right direction as to what I can do to fix this I’d really appreciate it.
Many thanks,
Angela (aged 24)

I see there are SO many people in the same position – it is terribly heartbreaking and disconcerting to see how many people need help and I am just one of millions. I don’t know exactly how this works but am so desperate at the moment that absolutely any chance there is a chance I will try. I am from South Africa and my husband just lost his form of income with absolutely no notice – he was working for a one man company who suddenly had no business coming in and the last client who was suppose to pay them pulled a fast one on them and there was no money. I had to make a loan for food and rental and this was almost a month back. The salary I receive this month has to be repaid for the loan or it will put my mother in so much trouble that she wont be able to pay her rent. Once I am finished paying what needs to be paid this month, I am minus rent and food – not mention school fees etc – my rent is R5500 and a months food is about 3000. My husband is trying everything to bring in the money but he has no petrol to drive anywhere and he just hasn’t been able to get a new job. He was doing all sorts of maintenance and pool jobs – but without the money to buy supplies and the petrol to go anywhere – this is just not working. The worst part is that I don’t know how to make things right for my kids – tonight one of our neighbours shared there dinner with us when they heard me crying cos there just isn’t any food in our home, we now can’t even afford a loaf of bread or toilet paper. I am so desperate – I can’t make any loans because of my credit reference. Please please somebody help me keep a roof over my kids head and help me feed them pleasem

Hello: I am a 65 year old, wife, mother and grandmother. My husband and I have fallen on the worst financial times of our life. The bank is in the process of foreclosing on our home. I am ill with lupus and two liver diseases brought on by the lupus. I am unable to work. My husband is 70 and is disabled. I never in my wildest dreams thought that we would ever be in this situation. We need $20,000 to pull our home out of foreclosure. The stress this has brought into our lives is unbearable. Ultimately, I may be facing a liver transplant. Please, if anyone can help or knows of anyone that can help us save our home we would be so indebted. Thank you for any help that you may be able to give us.

Desperate for about $20,000. to help my 24 year old son get his drivers license back. He had a string of bad luck, his insurance lapsed and he got into a couple fender benders. To complicate things the county has doubled his fines. He’s having trouble finding work without a drivers license. There is nothing I can do to to even put a dent in that kind of debt. he’s a very good young man, doesn’t do drugs and just wants to succeed in this world. He’s very proud and doesn’t like to ask for help, not that anyone he knows would be able to help with that kind of debt I hope someone can find it in their heart to help this young man. I hurt so badly for him daily. He’s starting to lose hope and faith and that breaks my heart. Even if the help comes from my own website making enough money to help him that would be wonderful. Thank you for reading.

Hello. I will start by saying that my family is in need of moving into a bigger mobile home. I have 2 kids and we recently took in my husbands 7 year old cousin. Our trailer we live in now only is a 2 bedroom and we desperately need 1000 dollars to move to a 3 bedroom mobile home. My husband works and since we are now caring for his cousin we had to get him clothes and shoes and now we have nothing to put towards moving. Why don’t I work? Well two years ago I was at work where I had work for 4 years and got sick rushed to the hospital where I had emergency surgery and since I have had a total of 9 surgeries and an emergency hysteramcy my last surgery was jan because I keep having mass in my stomach. Thanks for reading my story.

GREAT! Website. I think I have given a whole new meaning to the word “HUMBLE”. My heart goes out to all that have shared on this site. I lost just about everything due to health issues. Unbelievable health issues! Somedays I still scratch my head wondering if its just a bad dream. On August second my esophogus ruptured. To date I’ve had 12 bands put in. I lost my apartment sept 1st, along with my car. I put everything I own in a storage unit in blaine, of which I’m 3 months behind and any money I am able to give them is eaten up in late fees. I have arthritis in my lower spine and will be having a series of flagesett injections, and for the finale 2 weeks ago the dr who did the banding told me I have a rapid growth on my liver that’s going upward, high possibility that its cancer. Something in the universe must be testing me to see how much more I can take, or maybe I’m just in denial…it is what it is I guess. I wish I had a thousand dollars to get caught up. And I don’t even have to see the funds, it can go directly to the sources. What I really need is for the storage to be taken care of, I’m tired of worrying if they’ll keep my stuff. What’s really sad is I’m 51 going on 40, and I already have a disability/ssi case pending. I really miss working. I don’t have a computer to create a website. My e-mail will have to do. We all have an angel…thank you. PS. I will pay it forward!

My mom has been on disability for 11 months and we are 7 months behind on mortgage. We haven’t paid any bills now for 4 months, and we are without water. She has hospital fees that aren’t covered by insurance and we’ve used all the family money we could find. $6000 would give us half of what we need and it’s what I ask from anyone who’s kind enough to give it.
Please help in any way you can, even a fraction would do some good. Thank you
