Hello,
You may know me as Jessica. I have posted here to request donations for graduate school. Not only do I have a great deal of student loan debt from my Graduate education with a Masters of Science in Nursing Education, Acute Care, the amount only continues to grow. This year alone, I must renew my certifications, obtain a new nursing license for multiple states, move and graduate. My education requires another 4-5 flights to Alabama for exams as well as possible hotel reservations/car rents in order to complete my education. This adventure is extremely pricey so any donation you can provide will be greatly appreciated! You may donate via credit card or PayPal and the funds will be delivered through PayPal. I will never see your payment information though I will receive an email notifying me of your donation. Thanks so much!!

Hello Everyone, I'm a 24 year young lady living in New Zealand with my partner of one year.

I have some grand travel plans. New Zealand being a small country I know there is such a wide world to explore.

I don't have a sob story to tell you as everyone in life is fighting their own battles, some bigger than others, some may seem more important than others.

I do work full time and try and save as much as I can whilst also paying off my $18,000 worth of debt (Car, Lawyers, Seperation fees etc) and being on one income, my partners role was made redundent so he is currently unemployed :(. So far my travel account has $330, nearly enough for a air fair to Australia one way.

I have a wild passion for travel, when I was married I was very held back by my husband but now I'm free, have grown so personally and wish to explore this whole world. EAT PRAY LOVE is such a inspirational movie!! I'm already selling what I can with Garage sales, working extra cash jobs, watering plants, house sitting etc to try and save faster.

I wish to travel to

Australia - Espically the Gold Coast, take my partner to all the theme parks.

I would love to explore the out back and rough it for a few nights

USA - I would love to travel LA to NY along route 66. I would love to go to Texas, Disneyland, Universal Studios, Knotts Berry Farm and more. My dream job a Rollarcoaster Tester!! Travel the world playing on rollarcoasters. I'm no boring chick, I like adventure and just wish to explore this world.... oh and defintitly want to chase a tornado in America.

Would also love to go to Egypt, Italy, Rome, Thailand. I'm ready to pack up and go. Happy to work when I get to these countries to help my self around.

Im just asking anyone who has kindness in their hearts to help my partner and I, go exploing in this wide world...

PS- If this helps my chances, my partner doesnt believe this will work, (he is a worry wort, I'm the free spirit / universe believer) he made me a deal, if I get at least $500 he will run nudey down the road!! Haha I shook on it and now he is worried.

If you would like to help a young Kiwi Couple out then please donate to us, what ever you can.

Thank you in advance

May you pay it forward an the goodness be returned

Hello,
I am an 18 year old student who has never been able to travel away from home. My parents said that this summer if I can raise the money I can go travel. I recently have been able to get my passport from selling off clothes I haven't worn but am now broke. Now I don't know what to do, I've sold just about everything I can to be able to save some money. I have extreme wanderlust and need to be able to go out and see another part of the world before I am stuck at home again for four years. If I can come up with the money to travel I plan on starting a blog to tell about my adventure. What I really want to do is volunteer in a developing country, but even those cost at least $600 without airfare. Any donations even if it is a dollar would help me out greatly. Please help a budding traveler out, it would bring you good karma.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

In a nutshell- the girl I love just moved to Australia and I have to remain here in Kingston to finish my Engineering degree. I could not in any conscience ask her to not go on a life changing adventure to wait in Ontario for me.
I have worked hard and paid for everything for myself since I was 15, coming from a single income family of 5 children- I'm well aware of the value of money. I'm also aware that to pay my tuition at Queen's University I need to work all summer to afford it. I'm desperately hoping to raise some money here that I can see her as soon as possible.
I have been absolutely destroyed since she left and burying myself in school and work barely makes it passable. I would do anything for this girl if I had the means to and I presently don't- thus I've been reduced to internet begging. I can verify all of these details if you're justifiably wary of scams. I'm just desperately hoping for some stranger philanthropy to give me an opportunity to see her- even if it's just for the summer months. I have been in 3 previous long term relationships (I'm 29) and I have never loved a girl more than her. Please help me unbreak my heart- I know she would love nothing more as well

Hello one and all,

As some of you may know and for those that dont i am completely passionate about swimming...in any water at any time any where and with as many people as i can, and i am equally passionate about encouraging others to do the same. I have thoroughly enjoyed coaching each and every person that i have come across that has asked for it (and some that haven't), whether that is for an event, a race, fitness, mental health what ever the reason, i have endeavored to create a safe environment were all feel safe, achieve, surpass that achievement and go on to develop a deep passion for swimming. I have met some incredible people along the way, who's reasons for wanting to enter or re-enter the water have left me breathless at times.
I would now like to turn that passion into something more, the group is expanding which i am overjoyed with, people are progressing, requests are coming in for me to help more and more people and each and everyone of them will get my undivided attention.

But i want to turn my passion into a qualification and therefore what to formalise what i am doing and 'be qualified' so we can get more and more people into the open water, the pool and into swimming in general. I also wish to apply for funding to the group so we can get training aids, wetsuits etc so the cost of starting in open water or any other type of swimming is not so great for people, i have been informed that if i am qualified and formalise the group we can apply and will certainly get funding for equipment. I want to make it a truly inclusive hobby or sport for people of all ages, abilities and disciplines. This last year has shown me how passionate i am about helping people reach their goals and i want to continue to do so.

But right now i need your help, as some of you know, i got made redundant (believe me i was not pleased about it) and money is not the easiest thing for me to find, swim courses are not held on a roll on roll off basis, there is a course coming up in March, but applications have to be in by the 6th of Feb, so essentially i have until the 5th to raise the money. My plan for the immediate and long term future is to get myself qualified then to raise money through sponsorship and any other means i can to get others qualified so that each an every one of us that wants to can get not only a qualification but a career in swimming, so we can keep the bug that is inside all of us alive and kicking. I also plan to extend this to other groups so they can be formalised and each of us do the same in our respective locations. There are no formal qualifications other than triathlon ones to teach open water swimming...as a trainer i will be looking to write a course for others to qualify in, we all work hard at our hobby, but i feel we could really expand what we do and really open it up to the masses. You know how passionate i am but also how proud so i do not ask lightly, your generosity would be appreciated, even if its just a penny...look down the back of the sofa....!!! I know times are hard for one and all so that is why i will understand if you can not help..if you can you know it will be money not wasted. For each an every one of that gets qualified a new swim adventure starts, we will be a team and who knows in the future we might be recognised for the impact we have on swimming and those who want to swim! How do you donate....via paypal as i think that is the safest way!!! If you can think of any other way i can raise the money ......let me know!!

My paypal address is pauline_squire@sky.com

Anything no matter how large or small would be eternally grateful. It goes without saying, my progress, the swims, the fun the laughter and the future will all be blogged about ...so there will be plenty for you to read about too xxxx

Last January I was fortunate enough to travel to the country of Nicaragua with a group called Witness for Peace. On this two week adventure I was able to learn about sustainable development, economics, and agricultural practices. I met economists, political journalists, community leaders, and members of the U.S. Embassy. I spent each day on tours and educational trips attending lectures and presentations designed to inform the group about the real Nicaraguan way. I even stayed with a coffee farming family living in the rural mountainside. My trip to Nicaragua was a life changing experience that has opened my eyes to the magnificent cultures in this world, and has allowed for my own personal development on a very deep level. This trip would have been impossible if not for the fact that it was able to be transformed into a study abroad trip through my university, and therefor additional funding and scholarships were able to pay my way.
This February I have been so lucky to be invited to attend another delegation! This time the trip is to the cities of Cali and Bogota in the country of Colombia, one of the most beautiful and ecologically diverse parts of South America. Here I have the opportunity to spend time with rural Afro-Colombians and to learn about the women in positions of leadership who have helped support and strengthen their communities. Unfortunately because of the travel warning between the United States and Colombia, my school will not approve this trip as a study abroad experience. Instead, I found a professor who is willing to facilitate an independent study, where I can still earn course credit for the trip. Unfortunately, because it is not considered a study abroad program, I am ineligible to receive additional funding or scholarship money through the school.
Traveling is my passion and engaging in new cultures is incredibly fulfilling for me. Please help me accomplish my goals and follow my dreams!

My wife and I are looking to start a Child care and learning center in our community, We are looking to build a facility using a Green building method called Earthbags we are needing some help getting started. We have a little over an acre of land we are going to start construction on soon that will include lots and lots of hands on learning and out door adventure as well as teach children and families to take care of animals, Cows,Chickens,kittens,puppies,horses,etc. also we would like to offer cooking and general maintenance classes for everyday people.

Part of our funding will be from donations from the community to keep fee's low, we are looking to have a small thrift store on site that people can donate clothes and other items to be sold and 100% of the profit will go back into the facility to keep prices low. and a small grocery store stocked by a team Extreme coupon moms. My wife and I have about $5000.00 saved up plus the land and we need at least another $15,000-$20,000 to build a 5000 sqf building to house the child care facility.

Part of our plan is to get the community involved in the build of our facility and in return help those who are interested in building a home for them once we get the learning center completed.

For those of you not familiar with Earthbag building do some google searches on the subject and you will be amazed at how easy and affordable a nice energy efficient home can be. Anyone who donates will be honored with their name on a dedication plaque inside the facility once it is complete.

Our goal is to keep fee's down below $50.00 per child regardless of age and in some cases free and to offer these children HANDS ON ADVENTURE, and learning.

wanting to create a juice bar/gourmet food sevice. Promoting enzyme integrity foods prepared fresh exposing the alternative in dinning. the motto, sobriety thru dinning because cooked food is drug. wanting to promote alternative energy products like solar and wind through the same business, need food dryers, food processors, green life juicers, solar refridgerators, solar hot water heaters, building,glass display refridgerator, solar panels, tables and chairs and so much more. this is a new style of food service that most people would not be capable of understanding and with that insight is the understanding of what it might take to introduce this concept in dinning,therefore the start up fees on a adventure with this scope of design are to be unforseen in many aspects of the dreamscape of it all. thank you.

My 16 year old daughter was accepted to the summer program at the Missouri Fine Arts Academy. This is a wonderful opportunity for her and it will get her a jump start on college as she will receive 3 credit hours of Fine Arts that she can transfer to the school of her choice. We just need to raise $1500 to do this and I am looking for some help to make this possible for her. Please review her plea and I hope that you can find it in your heart to help her take part in this wonderful opportunity. There is a link to donate at the bottom of the letter. -------------------

A Summer Adventure at the Missouri Fine Arts Academy

A few months ago, I got an email from my teacher. It was about a music program provided by Missouri State University. It was for actors, writers, musicians, visual artists, and singers. I love music and acting, so the singers, the instrumentalists, and the actors programs intrigued me. For a while, I couldn't decide on which I wanted to do. I love to sing, I love to play the cello, and I love to act. Everyone said different things. I finally decided on singing since it is what I feel most passionate about.
Music truly is my life and I hope to make it my career along with acting. These arts fill up all parts of my life (I even finally gave in and started to take private lessons). Although, everytime I would get an oppurtunity to do what I wanted, I never had the money or was passed over to a favorite. Usually, it was because I had no money. Many acting schools have called me back after answering to an open call, but they always wanted $5000-10000 within a week of calling. I really thought I wouldn't be able to do what I wanted because of money.
Although, I have found the Missouri Fine Arts Academy. It seems wonderful. There are concerts, classes, and so many other things offered there. It is a huge chance like so many others. I don't want to pass it up. It is not just a chance to get a great education from it, but it also gives me a jumpstart on my college credits. Three whole credit hours from four weeks of study. This could be what I need to become successful!
I need money though. Like everything that is good, there is always a catch. I need 1500 dollars to pay for this school. I need help from other people. People that are my friends, my family, and anyone who has a dream even somewhat similar to mine. Even a dollar, heck even $0.50, would help me reach this goal. I just need to raise all the money I can. Thank you. Even if the only thing you can give is support, it helps.

Cooking is my passion and I enjoy cooking great food for people. I need some start up capital to open a drive-up window type restaurant. The start up capital would help cover rent, deposit, cash flow and product purchases. I believe with some of the ideas I have for this business that I could expand the concept over time to more locations and possibly franchise it sometime in the future. I have a blog that I have started where I am sharing some of my favorite family recipes http://myfavoritefamilyrecipes.blogspot.com/ and I will have a website up shortly explaining some of my ideas for this business adventure that I wish to pursue. Any and all donations would be greatly appreciated. I will donate a small portion of what I make from this post to other people on this site of my choosing(10%-25%). Thanks for looking and good luck with your endeavors.

Hello my name is Amanda. I have lived in Florida my whole life. I am still in my 20s and want to go explore the rest of the world. Starting with Colorado. I'm thinking baby steps! I saved every penny last year to make the move and I got all the way there and my dreams were smashed when I couldn't find a job right away. Thus running out of money to keep up with my bills and I had to leave after saving and actually getting there. I'm now in Oklahoma serving, and making near pennies after 13 hour days. Aty this rate I will never be able to afford to get back there or anywhere for that matter. Winter season opens up in October and the ski resorts in the Rockies will be hiring. But I need to have enough money to get there and pay for a place so I can stay and experience the mountains. I'm not looking for any certain amount just some help to get me and my pup Pete to our next adventure! So if you havea little extra and ever had the dream to explore HELP ME OUT!!!!! I won't give up on my next adventure! Thank you
