Hopping for a better situation

Posted by Gr8tful4lyfe on 2012-05-09 10:58:43

 I am a 32 yr old mother of 3 who has never been in a situation of desperation such as the one I am about to present to you.  Early last year I worked at a job which paid more than enough money to take care of me and my children.  The problem was that the hours were from 3p-3a, which gave me no time to spend with my kids.  My oldest which is of school age only seen me on tue & Wed, which were my only days off, the rest of her time was spent with my sitter.  My job also had me work holidays and sad to say their birthdays as well.  Soon my daughters grades began to drop and my young children no longer wanted to spend time with me.  They cried for the babysitter and soon started calling me by my first name.  I went to my job and pleaded with them for a schedule change, they declined stating that my personal life wasnt their problem and they have 1000's of people who would love to take my place.  So I was forced to make a decision between money and my kids, I chose my kids.  I quit my job after saving enough money to pay the bills for a couple of months while I search for a job with earlier hours.  I felt this shouldn't be a problem due my previous work experience and my associates degree.  The 3 months I had given my self passed by very quickly without me finding new employment.  Because tax time was approaching and my lease was almost up I decided to use my tax money to find a much cheaper home (unfortunately in a much less appealing neighborhood) and use the rest of the money to pay for rent and utilities for another 3 months.  I have no family who can help me out and my kids father is nowhere around.  I have yet to find employment despite the many interviews and applications I have done.  A truck recently cracked the windshield on my car, my tires are bald, and the engine is going bad.  I cannot afford to fix these things and am now desperate to find a job before I lose my transportation. I would love for a great job lead or even an agency which can help me. A small donation would also help and if you send me your email address, as soon as I get on my feet I am willing to pay it back. For those who read this if u know of some job leads please forward it to me, thank you!!

I have lost my job about four months ago and have been trying to find a job. I have went to many interviews and no luck. I applied for unemployment and it took so long to get I lost my apartment where me and my kids stayed and had no where to go. So I had to stay with a family member and it's hard when you have kids. So finally I did receive the unemployment but had to pay what they gave me to catch up on my car note n repo fees as well. I was blessed with a job part-time but I lost it because I had no babysitter for my kids. I feel so ashame asking for money but god knows I need it right now. I have tryed to ask family but no one can help. I have have tryed local communitys but no luck. I have always been taught to pray to god and he knows this is not a want this is a NEED in my life. Starting over is so hard and even harder when you don't have anything to start with. I am asking for is for help begger can't be chooses. I will be greatful for what ever you give. It's a blessing to me and my kids.These last couples of weeks have been hard n cant sleep because I knowing that I trying to get on my feet to a strong women for my kids but it's overwhelming and my heart hurts because I don't what I going to do for them for Christmas or right now. I have nothing but I thank god for my life. Thanks for taking time to read this.

Death of my son triggered financial hardship. Please help

Posted by jmeritt1 on 2011-11-27 13:58:19

My name is Jessica. I am 20 years old. When I went into my doctors appointment (8 months pregnant) I found out that my son had passed away in uetero. The doctors put me into labor. I had to sell my car, and use all my savings to pay for a funeral. I was surviving off of my savings. On top of that, a week after all this happened I found out that my health insurance cancled. So the medical bills are sky high. I was out of work due to pregnancy. Now I am in a bad situation. I have a 4 year old son, and we are on the verge of getting kicked out of our home due to lack of rent payment. We have no way to pay our bills. Here soon with winter coming up we will have not have a warm place to rest our heads. I can't even afford a babysitter at the moment, so my part time job is in jepordy. Please, PLEASE, help. It would change my world as well as my sons. I know it seems much to ask, but I would greatly appreciate it.








22 year old in desperate need of help

Posted by Jaquan07 on 2011-11-13 19:58:28

Hello I am a 22 year old mother of 1 in desperate need of help. I'm currently working a fulltime job to help support myself, my daughter and my mother. I'm not receiving any other help from my daughter's father due to his incarceration. My mother has been out of work due to personal illness and sometimes I am unable to work my full 40 hour work week because I have to care for her who is also my babysitter. I am struggling to take care of all my bills and I'm currently not even living paycheck to paycheck because my account is currently in the negative. I usually don't do this but I am begging for any financial assistance to help me with bills and my daughter also has a birthday coming up on November 26th and she will be 3 years old. I would greatly appreciate any amount of help so that I can begin to get our lives back on track. Thank you in advance for any help.

Help with medical bills.

Posted by singledaddy2boys on 2011-08-22 13:58:01

Hello,

I'm a single father with two boys. I work 60+ hours a week and live alone. I have over 10,000 dollars in student loans and 7,000 dollars in medical bills due to having surgery for an inguinal hernia. I am not eligible for help from the state. I live in a apartment with both of my boys and I get no help from the mother. By the time I pay for rent, energy bills, payments to student loans, medical bills, babysitter, and car insurance I have barely any money to put food on the table as is. My car is on it's last leg and I can't afford any more monthly payments to get a new one. I can't get a loan because my income to debt ratio is too high. I typically would not resort to this type of help but I'm struggling and am in need of financial assistance. Any donations would help my family in these tough times.

Much Appreciated,
Tim

Just unlucky

I don't even know where to start....I'm a single mother of three kids with one on the way. At first things seemed okay my kids and I moved to a new apt, I had a new job,and a hand me down car to get around in. But...within three months I lost my job due to my babysitter not being on time or not coming all together, my car gave out on us and I had no money to repair it, I lost my apt, I lost my stepfather first on May 4th then my mother on June 28th. All of this then to find out I'm pregnant on top of it all. We lost everything within a blink of an eye. Right, now we have no where to go, no money, and public assistance can't help us with a place to stay. My family and I would appreciate any donation possible. I love my kids and I hate this situation I just need help.

Hope For me and My Sons Future

Posted by aprilmay81 on 2011-07-14 17:58:08

Hi, my name is April May Johnson, As I have located this site, I can validate all information that I am submitting here is true honest information, along with my lawyers contact name and info.I am a single mother of my son who is 11 years old for four years now, with a boyfirend I have had for 10 months now who is deployed here in the south for the oil spill serving his time to give us a cleaner gulf and make our waters cleaner and safer. Both of us chrisitans have big hearts and accepted people in our lifes that have done nothing but stole from us and even let there envy tear us apart. My nightmare started the day after my birthday when my sister and my babysitter changed my whole life and took everything from me. I was sleeping upstairs when the law came and arrested me and I was totally oblivious. My babysitter whom was downstairs on my computer messaging my sister, had woke me up crying saying we were going to jail I totally confused just waking up walked downstairs immediately to my open door and walked outside to five guns pointed at me and telling me I was under arrest. I had never been in trouble my entire life, I have and now had a perfect record, and never would hurt anyone, everyone in my community knows me and knows that i would give the shirt off my back. Well 'i was arrested and charged with distribution of drugs and put in jail with a 100000 bond, I still confused after six days of being in local jail had finally gotten bailed out and found out that when my babysitter, which had kept my son the night prior nat my apartment because it was my birthday and me and my boyfriend had rented a suite to have a nice relaxing night for my birthday, had been making drugs and had all this hidden in the attic of my home. Totallu unaware I walked out of my home with five guns half asleep when my 11 year old son watched these cops throw me around on the concrete like a rag doll, scraped my skin all up, and slammed me head first into the ground screaming and fighting these cops to quit hurting his mommy. Totally unaware of what this girl had in my attic I was telling hese cops to search my home I had nothing to hide while they were being cruel and jerking me all around in hang cuffs. It was trultuey the worst day of my life. Helpless and handcuffed, crying, hurting and wanting nothing more than to comfort my confused son, I laid there helpless trying to figure out what was going on. The babysitter soon had came out of my apartment behind me with her hands up stating that there was stuff in my attic and stating also to the cops it was all mine. I was flabbergasted, freaked out, and speechless. I didnt have a ground to stand on.The apartment was in my name and she blamed everything that was in my attic she had been doing the night before the arrest on myself. So hours later I am taking to jail when much to my knowledge I was notified in jail that they released the babysitter, which was a third time felon in drug court, and on parole which i was unaware of. So six days had past and i was stuck in jail crying, in vigorous pain from the freezing cold temperatures and from sleeping on the concrete cause there was no bed in the holding cell i was locked up in with 11 other girls. It was six days later my parents were finally able to bail me out and my father had to put up his week vacation and sale things to be able to do. I came home and was notified that the very next day after my arrest my apartment was broken into and robbed of everything me, my son, and my boyfriend had owned. Down to our clothes, we had lost everything. After a few days things started to surface, i was completely positive that I was clean, had passed the drug test and prayed that God would bring to the surface any proof to prove that I had been set up. Well my parents which are christians had had my son the day prior to me getting out of jail and they had questioned him about what the babysitter was doing while she babysat him the night before the arrest. He simply replied and without knowing that everything that was found in my apartment was in the attic, he had told my parents she was in the attic and when she was questioned by him she simply replied checking it out and told him to get to bed. Thats when things started to slowly make since. My boyfriend the day after my arrest had came to the apartment and had picked up a few things during the day before the aprtment had been robbed that night and had picked up my two laptops and his also. Much to my surprise he had brought them to my parents where i am now living and I signed on to it like normal and went to check my facebook where when I had typed in facebook.com it came up on the babysitters facebook still signed in and we were able to see the email and text messages prior to the day of my arrest when she was babysitting texting friends inviting them to my home and using code talk stating she had some candy and they should chill. I was again speechless. Now due to all this and the chrges I am facing I am looking at 2-5 years if I dont get a lawyer and fight for my future, and with the proof I have i can have justice served, I have been in college three years with one year left, my boyfriend whom is governement in the military has been ordered by his supervisor to stay away till my court dates are over and prove i am innocent cant even help me and my family have and know i am innocent. i have lost custody of my son, and live with him and my parents and my whole life due to this girl is in shambles. After several lawyer consultations, I have been billed 5000 for my lawyer and due to jail time I lost my job. I am in desperate need of financial help to protect my future and the future of my son. i am already in debt to my parents who are both diabetics, and both have high blood pressure for 2600.00 which they didnt have, and now they are hurting for money. I am a very honest hard working person and I have never been in a situation my whole life where I asked for help from anyone. I am not asking for anyone to give me this but I am asking that if you would read this, and again I can prove anything you need, to give me work, help me raise the money to protect my future cause i am truly innocent and without a job i do not have the funds to pay for this lawyer, I would even agree on terms of a loan. God knows I would be more than greatful and assure you that my 11 year old son would be the happiest kid in the world to keep his mother with him where she has always been and loving him like she should be. please help us....We would be more than greatful and God Bless You All

im so embarrassed but a moms gotta do what a moms gotta do

Posted by andrea27 on 2011-06-27 13:58:48

I hate to ask but ill be 100% honest. I need $ 800 to stop the eviction process. I work but paying the babysitter gas and utilities have put me behind on rent. End of july I get my raise but no one cares they want their money now. I don't even have enough for groceries. Thank god my son still takes formula. I thought my situation would get this bad and I hate having too ask but as a mom being prideful isnt an option.

If anyone can just give a little it dont have to be all id really appreciate it.

My name is Lisa, im 25, and i am a single mother with one on the way. my kids' dad is in prison for drinking on parole....i work for 8 dollars an hour but my rent is 550 a month, electric 90 a month, gas for car 150, my daycare is around 350 a month cell phone 60 a month, car insurance 56 a month, daipers kids clothes food: usually over 400 a month and i make about 900 a month. when my kids dad was not incarcerated we were doin very well because he made very good money. I dont know what to do as i was just told by my dr i have preeclampsia and should be on bedrest for the remaining of my pregnancy. my father was a truck driver for ten years when in 1991 my mother decided to go on a trip with him and my father drove his semi truck over a cliff in oregon (by accident of course) killing both my mother and father. the only family i have is a grandmother who is the epitome of selfish and my older sister who has 3 kids in a 2 bed trailer and struggles and works very hard as i do. i grew up in foster care until i was 16 and then lived with my older sister. i love my kids dad with all my heart and hes a very very hard worker. but hes in jail until july. i had a local rent assistance pay my rent for me for april but beyond that im not sure what to do. i will feel i've failed my children if i bring my newborn son into a homeless shelter. i luckily have no credit card debt because i dont believe in them. my daughter is 17 months old and i have no summer clothes for her and my tags expired on march 31st on my car. i owe my babysitter 600 bucks and like i said rent is paid for april, but future is soooo unknown and its making me very afraid for my kids. if you could help, in any way at all i would probably cry tears of joy. ive been so emotional with this pregnancy and absence of my boyfriendkids dad and the fear of homelessness and unhealthy baby is making me manically depressed. and i think: just a year ago, before my boyfriend was incarcerated life was so simple and consistant. bills were paid we would go to the lake, go fishing, go to church on sundays and had even planned to start saving for a wedding and nice honeymoon in some far away place! now i just want to be ok. anyways, im sure youve heard alot of horrifying life situations such as mine....and God bless you for your incredible generosity. Please let me know if you could help in any way.

Need to Move out of My MOMS!!!

Posted by Rose128 on 2011-01-11 13:58:58

Classic story. Single mother, age 25, of two small kids, ages 3 and 1. Their father left me for another woman and I am currently unemployed living with my mother, god bless her heart. I need enough money to move to an apartment, nothing fancy, just a place where I can take my kids so that I am able to work. See I am not able to work while I am living here, I have no babysitter. My mother doesn't allow their father, who is also unemployed being supported by his current girlfriend, into her home. Understandable, she's bitter about him leaving me. I don't know, therefore can't be expected to trust the woman he is living with, so the kids going to her house is also out of the question for me. Needless to say, I have no money for daycare. However, if I move, I would be able to have him watch the kids at my place while I'm at work. It's a win win..I wouldn't have to pay for daycare, which I most certainly can't afford anyway, and my babies can spend much needed time with their dad. He's a good father, just not a good husband by any means. In much need of assistance. Thank you in advance for your time.

PLEASE

Need Help

Posted by MOMof_4 on 2010-10-24 02:58:58

I am a 32yr old mother of 3yr old triplet boys and a 1 yr old girl. I was married to my first husband 10 years, lost two babies, and finally had my boys. It seems it was more stress to have triplets than he could bare. He left me for some girl he met at work when the boys were 10 months old. My current husband works hard to support us but only makes $8.25 hr. I am currently going back to school to get a nursing degree and I work 3 days a week as a caregiver to the elderly making $150.00 a week. I pay most all of that to a babysitter. I get food stamps but it is not enough. The most humiliating thing I have ever done is ask for help this way. My husband adopted the boys so there is no child support (not that he was paying any in the first place). I love my husband and would never want him to feel like he was not doing enough, so I am writing this in secret. We desperately need help and have no where else to turn. I struggle to pay every bill, and I mean the basics. We are only about $3,500 in credit card debt, but I can only pay the minimum on that. I am asking anyone who has even a little to spare to please take us into consideration. Thank you for reading this and God bless you.

My baby is breaking my heart

Posted by vanessaashley765 on 2010-07-23 18:58:58

Well since it can't hurt to be hopeful, I really need money. I'm a 22 year old single mom of the most amazing 2 year old boy, he is the light of my life. In order to support us and put a roof over our head, I am working over 50 hours a week as a receptionist and going to night school after my long days. This morning when I dropped my little man off at the babysitter's, the look on his face was devastating. He misses me, he wants me to be there to cuddle with him, he wants his mom. I feel like I am constantly shuffling him around just to work, just to live. The worse part: because I work so many hours and take home $450 a week... I don't qualify for any state assistance whatsoever. I barely pay rent at the end of the month, utilities are always late, our fridge is empty. There is no end for me in sight, no breaks, just long, tiring days and a broken heart. I will work my ass off for the rest of my life if it means my baby has a decent life, but what I would give to be there for more than just a few minutes a day. If you could help us out so I can finish school, I would be forever greatful.

Lots of Love,
Vanessa and Ryder

In order to support us and put a roof over our head, I am working over 50 hours a week as a receptionist and going to night school after my long days. This morning when I dropped my little man off at the babysitter's, the look on his face was devastating. He misses me, he wants me to be there to cuddle with him, he wants his mom. I feel like I am constantly shuffling him around just to work, just to live. The worse part: because I work so many hours and take home $450 a week... I don't qualify for any state assistance whatsoever. I barely pay rent at the end of the month, utilities are always late, our fridge is empty. There is no end for me in sight, no breaks, just long, tiring days and a broken heart. I will work my ass off for the rest of my life if it means my baby has a decent life, but what I would give to be there for more than just a few minutes a day. If you could help us out so I can finish school, I would be forever greatful.

Lots of Love,
Vanessa and Ryder
