Hi I am a mom of 3 children, 1 a special needs child. I work as a nurse assistant but it only covers about half of our needs. I work hard and do my best every day and try to keep a smile and a good attitude but sometimes your best just isn't good enough. My special needs baby is 8 years old and is speech impaired, deaf in one ear, severely asthmatic, and has ADHD. Medicaid pays for most of the meds and specialists but not all. I pay for some of his meds and specialists and then there's the gas to go to and from. All in all I'm spending about $800 per month that medicaid is refusing. I haven't been able to get an answer why as of yet. I've applied for social security for him but have been denied twice and now am awaiting a hearing which I am told could be anywhere between 18 and 21 months just to get a hearing date. I only make about $1500 per month so simple things like even a trip to the laundromat is a challenge. Apart from my son's problems I also have 2 baby girls aged 9 and 6 to take care of. Thanks be to God they are healthy. All of my family has passed away due to various forms of cancer so it's just my children and my husband and self. He is out of a job presently and has been seeking work since being laid off from his last job (about 7 months). I have applied for a pell grant and registered for LPN classes at the local community college to try to help myself but it will take about 15 months to finish school let alone get a job. I've managed to pay rent but am 2 months behind on the internet bill (used for school) am 5 months behind in car payments and am at risk of a repo any day. If I lose my car then how am I going to be able to go to work,school, take the kids to school, take the kids to the doctor,grocery shop, do laundry, or anything else? I currently do not have auto insurance because I can't afford it.(was cancelled for nonpayment 2 days ago.) I managed to pay my water and cell(about $100) to keep that going. I am almost a month behind on my electricity but have managed to keep it going by paying about half the bill per month. As of now, I have a balance of $150. I don't know what to do. If anyone would please help us I would be forever grateful and appreciative.

So its day two of this begging thing apparently im not good at it cause noone has answered it. I sincerely need someones help. Im not asking for someone else to do without but I could use some serious funds. I owe $630 rent by the 15th or they will start eveiction. I owe $88 for car insurance that has been cancelled as of the 5th. I need $ 28.59 for my past due water bill and my new electric bill is due out any day! I'm going back to work in 4 days to prevent any further neeeds but without help I will be so far behind I may lose it all! Please someone dig deep and show compassion...thank you and have a great day!

I am 24 years old and have hit a huge rut this month. I just started a new job but have less than two weeks to catch up before the next month and bills come along. My insurance is officially cancelled and have few time before my liscense is sent to be suspended but have been paying a little on everything else that's more important like rent,electric, and my new vet bill due to my dog (my kid) being hit by a car. Its like everything went wrong all at the same time. I don't need much to catch up just don't wanna be chasing my bills once again for another month.I owe 200 to the humane society , have to get insurance for my car atleast 150 or more to start and owe 200 on rent. So 500 would bless my life forever! I've tried to get a loan but lack of credit stops that from happening. Someone please help before the month ends! Sincerely peaseybaby@gmail.com

I'm really embarrassed to ask for money, but after discussing with my wife the last two days we decided that anything will help. We need help to get out of debt, the reason for the majority of the debt is mainly my son's school fees. Over the last 3yrs we have maxed out on 2 credit cards and 2 loans, including my wife's inheritance she got from her grandma. I went to the school before and tried to explain my predicament and they said that there is many people that struggle, they can only reduce payment by 10%, that is if the board agrees. Work is only prepared to lend me a small portion of that (meaning more debt), and they told me to declare myself insolvent! I have already cancelled my car and life insurances, and reduced my medical insurance. I mostly work 6 to 7 days a week @ 14hrs a day between 2 jobs.
I have recently started making bio fuel from used cooking oil to help reduce my fuel cost. I don't know what else to do, the bills just keep piling up!
All I can do now is ask...beg...for help, I don't even know if this will work.
I don't expect someone to make all my debt disappear, that be nice tho :). But I kindly ask if some people would not mind donating even as little as $1 anything extra would help.
And if you've read this far, thank you for reading my post, and taking time to try and help others. I hope and pray that some day someone can help you too.
Special Thanks,
A Loving Dad.
Update 28-02-2012 No donations yet :( Scammers galore. Will try and take extra on my mortage today, good luck all, holding thumbs...
Update 29-02-2012 nope, nothing yet...damn scammers, how they got my e-mail, dunno, but wanting to pay a donation claiming they are from legitimate companies, but have a yahoo email? Apparently the CEO, asking for me to pay a portion back to them...and and and...most ppl come here because they are desperate, and then among the debt collectors and lawyers you still have to deal with assholes like that too!

I am a 43 year old female. I have no children and I am not married. My story is not that of someone that most people would be sympathetic to, but I would like to be as honest as possible.

When I was 23, I graduated from medicine school, got involved with someone for 5 years then he left leaving me with nothing. I got my first loan and credit card which was my first mistake. I borrowed to pay for my mortgage and ended up having difficulty paying all my bills.

Over the years, I proceeded to act like an idiot – taking out new accounts and racking up the bills. I moved to Italy thinking a new start would be good, lived there for ten years but still could not earn enough to pay off my debts let alone live comfortably. Again, this is my fault, getting mixed up with people who took advantage of my generosity, I was left yet again with no money to support myself. My father passed away when I was 23 and my mother 10 years later, I am an only child. I have no idea what happened to all their property or money, so I’ve had to be independent and fend for myself.

I decided to return to England, but getting a job here was even more difficult than in Italy. No one wants to employ you if you are over 35yrs, I’ve been struggling for the last two years, sometimes going without eating for 5 days living on tea. I have sold just about everything I own. I was hoping to make a dent in the bills I had mounting, which had gotten out of hand. I was falling behind and couldn’t make all the payments. Selling off all the stuff I bought seemed like a good start, but the bills keep coming.

I am asking for some help with these bills and rent so I can get my head above water. I have not taken out any loans and cancelled all my cards, I’m in so much debt that I will be evicted from my flat if I don’t come up with the rent by Monday.

I would humbly accept any help that someone is willing to offer me. I really want to live debt free for the first time since I left my parents home. I made a promise to myself that enough was enough, no more borrowing and if I got enough money to get me out of my black hole, I would help someone else who needs help just like me.

Hi. I know my plight is not as bad as some peoples situations on here, but I thought it wouldnt hurt to ask. I am currently stuck in Spain. I missed my flight back to the UK due to flight being cancelled and have no way of getting home. I am currently sleeping on a good samaritans couch. If anyone can find it in their hearts to help, any donation, however small would help. Thanks in advance.

I need help. :( I've never done anything like this before--and I never thought that I'd have to. But desperate times call for desperate measures I suppose...

First of all, thank you for clicking in; I truly do appreciate it. I'm having some financial difficulty, and it's putting me under a lot of stress. I'm a single 24-year-old female, and I'm a university grad. However, I certainly don't feel like one. I've been unable to find a job since I graduated two years ago. I studied Social Science--I'll never make that same mistake again. Just recently, for the past couple of weeks, I've been working a minimum wage retail job for 10 hours a week. I'm grateful that I, at least, have something for now. I just wish that it was enough to fend off my student loan payments, credit card bills (which have long since been cancelled), bus/transportation fares (I don't have a car), a bank account, which always seems to be in deficit, and whatever else decides to pop up and torment me. I've decided to go back to school again next September and attend college, with hopes that I'll be better able to land a good job. I'll rack up more student debt, but if it means that I'll be able to stand on my own two feet again, then I'll do it. But for now, I need a bit of help to get by.

I understand that beggars can't be choosers, so I'm not going to specify a certain amount that I need. But anything that you are willing to spare will be greatly appreciated; every little bit counts. Once I'm secure in my life and in my finances, I've made a promise to myself to come back to websites, like these, to donate to others who also need a helping hand. I think it's wonderful that such people, who are at the end of their ropes, have a place to turn to. It's encouraging.

Again, I thank you for clicking in and taking the time to read this. Best wishes to you and your loved ones, and do take care.

We lost our home in September and had to go stay with the only family we had out of state. After 2 weeks we realized my son in law has a serious drinking problem, explaining his violent and irrational behavior. At the end of Oct we'd saved enough money to fly back to our hometown where we'd feel a bit safer and could get into a not so bad weekly hotel long enough to regroup

Well, the snowstorm in NYC cancelled our flight, and at the same time my wife developed severe problems with her blood glucose levels. She has child onset diabetes. After various tests at ER they discovered a serious abcess in her jaw and admitted her for antibiotic therapy. (Yale Hosp). This caused us to miss our flight again and had to buy tickets once more.

After returning to Atlanta she wasn't doing better and was readmitted because the infection was resistant to antibiotics. Meanwhile I am having to go from one hotel to the other getting dirt cheap rates on Priceline.com but no longer having money for food or the weekly hotel.

She was discharged from hospital last night.

Tonight is our last night and tomorrow we are out on the street with no food, nowhere to go and no money forger medication.

We are both professional 40 yr olds, lost our jobs and now our home, had to give up our animals and had car repossessed. Please, somebody, somewhere have some kindness and a generous heart.

Middle aged family of four was transferred from Corpus Christi, Texas to Seattle for an aviation job.My husband has been an A&P for the last 23 years. After 4 days on the road with ALL our things, checking in everyday, we were told by my husbands agent that the company we were sentto work for had cancelled the job.
Sorry.
We Lost everything.We didnt even have enough gas to get home, were snowed in in a by the week motel in northern oregon 2 weeks then finally the agent found us a very poor excuse for an aviation job in oregon w/no benefits which of course my husband gladly took.( I was disabled in a car accident years ago ) They only work there now 4 days so they dont lay anyone off.Wehad two cars but sold one for the cash to get an apartment snce we lost the one in Seattle. We would like to get OUT of here to a better aviation job but our other car that made the entire trip has had it. We need 1200 -1800 to either repair it get one in better shape. I cant even get this thing inspected but drive it anyway.. anything , anything at all will go directly to this .. this is a big mess.
Thank you

I'm a single mom who recently switched jobs between two different divisions of the same company. My old division screwed up my pay and I lost about 2/3rd of a paycheck. They say my new division is responsible for correcting the error, my new division says there's nothing they can do to correct it because I wasn't on their payroll and they didn't make the error. I'm now behind two car payments and one rent payment, my landlord has been understanding but he will only wait so long. I'm also a month behind on my utilities (I already cancelled my cable service). My fiance works in construction and got laid off a year ago, he has been working odd jobs here & there but he can't find anything permanent. We don't qualify for any kind of assistance, not even temporary, because I "make too much". I need about $2000.00 to get completely caught up and not be past due on anything. It kills me to post here but I've already exhausted my options - I have very few family/friends who arent able to help.

I am struggling to find the time and resources needed to start my own online business. I was laid off for almost a year and have gotten a new job, but since I am in debt, it is difficult to save money or start a business. I am trying to do the business plan and get some friends help write the code, but no one is motivated if I do not pay them.

I am a smart woman who is independent and usually does not like to ask anyone for money. I think I am doing this online because it is more discrete than asking people I know for help.

To help with costs I have cancelled any cable and internet, and use coffee shops for free WiFi. It's also hard to do an online business if I am relying on other place's internet all the time.

I would appreciate if you can donate any amount. Every penny counts.

We need help paying our bills. My husband was in a bad car accident which totaled our SUV. It was paid off, but still ran like a dream. We had hoped to keep it until we ran it into the ground. We got another used car, but not long after that my husband got laid off. Unemployment denied his claim because the employer told them he missed too much work. My father-in-law passed away just before Christmas and my husband's employer told him to take as much time as he needed. When he called them and told them he would be out for the week (we had to travel 600 miles for the funeral) and they told him that would be a problem and they would talk after he got back. He had been back about 2 weeks when they called and told him not to bother coming back. We appealed unemployment's decision, but we lost. He has not been able to find another job. Our son and I both have medical problems and both have to take prescription medicine. We have insurance, but we have very high co-pays, so I have done without my medicine so our son can have his. We are on the verge of losing our house and car. We have used all our savings, cancelled our cable, landline and cellphones. Our only line of communication is the computer. We rarely watch TV anymore, we don't even use lights that much since we light candles to see after dark. Friends of mine bought groceries for us about a month ago, but those are now all gone. We have sold as many of our personal belongings as we could. We sold our bed frames and put the mattresses on the floor. We have no one we can move in with and no one we can borrow money from. Any help we get will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and May God Bless You All.

I am 24 and im in debt. I realize every person in debt has occurred their debt from some unwise choice or from many. I dont claim to be perfect but i am trying.

Back in 2007 my credit card debt was : $0.00. i didnt believe in keeping a balance on credit cards and never have like the idea. I had a great credit score as well. I had a few student loans from classes i was taking.

Throughout my life ive always had 1-3 jobs when possible or been in school.

Things changed when i made the decision to get married at 20. I got married to a man who was decietful and didnt treat me very well. He didnt work, played nintendo all day while i worked, went to school, and paid for both our tuitions ( which he attended none of his classes). I divorced him 8 months later when he refused to change and i had found out he had been cheating on me and was addicted to pornography. About a year after my divorce i found out that a credit card that was in both our names which he had claimed he had paid off and cancelled after our divorce was still open and showing on my credit report. He had taken my money i gave him for the credit card, paid it off and was about to close it when the bank USAA informed him that if he closed the card he would not qualify for another. He ended up paying it to no balance but not closing it ( so my name was unknowingly by me still on it) he throughout the next year racked up over $10,000 in debt, then filed bankruptcy leaving the debt completely in my name when i had not spent a penny to incur it.

2 years later, i met a man, who seemed to be handsome, rich, and treated me much better than my husband did. we dated for a few months before i started to notice he acted differently from day to day. After about 7 months of dating one day an officer showed up to my home asking for him. I found out that day that my boyfriend had been dealing and using heroin, he was arrested at my place the day after valentines day... the kicker... he was taking my debit and credit cards from my purse, figured out my easy to guess pin and was withdrawing hundreds of dollars from my accounts to pay for his habit. over the span of a few months he had racked my card up $5500. I called the bank to report this and they said since he had my pin there was nothing they could do. ( i still don't understand how that's right) later this same man promised to pay me back everything and signed a notarized document saying so. its been a year since then and i haven't received a dime and only excuses from him. On top of that im trying to live, go to an expensive school to finally get a degree and feel like im drowning in debt. all of which i had no luxury in enjoying any benefit from.

In in the process of trying to find a lawyer i probably wont be able to afford to somehow rectify this. And if i do win, neither of these scoundrels will have a job or anything i can sue them for.

I understand i should have been more smart about who i trust and date. i feel very naive and stupid and i know now i have to be wary of who i trust. I just want a clean slate and some sort of LIGHT at the end of my tunnel to work towards. Im against a wall and asking for help. I HATE to beg. Any donation... no matter how small would help.

For the past 4 years I have been attempting to keep my home of 20+ years.

I was a victim of the bad mortgages and eventually ended up filing Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to halt the sale of my home2 1/2 years ago. During this time the mortgage company has dragged out the loan modification. First it was approved, the cancelled, then redone. I have been paying the mortgage as well as the BK fee and during the last 6 months. I had to take out payday loans to maintain my payments. Now the payday loand have swallowed me. I wasn't able to make last month or this months BK payment. As of today I've sold everything that I have been able to sell. I need at least $2,800 to catch up my BK payments. I've already paid $20k to the BK courts over the past year and don't want to lose everything because of the mortgage company. At this point I was waiting for the BK trustree to approve the modification, but by being behind, my case is about to be dismissed and I will lose everything, the $20k I've already paid, my home, my car, evertyhing. If there is someone out there that could find it in there heart to assist me, it would be more than appreciated and I would be in debt to you for life. Thank you for considering my request and God bless.

When my husband became disabled we were unable to make the house payment, the mtg co. didn't care to help, oh and by the way, there is no such thing as "government programs" that force a mtg company to help its borrowers, its all a lie, we signed up for HAMP, tried to short sell, we did everything possible but the mortgage company forclosed anyway. And they sold our house at auction on the same day they told our realtor that they would work with him on a short sale. Government Programs? Obama's "Making Home Affordable" plan? Yeah, right. Please help us pay down some bills, we are struggling just to pay a measly $800 in rent every month. YES! I have a job, I'm working, I'm not sitting back waiting for someone else to pay things for me. But I don't make much and my husbands disability is not much either. We shut off our cable and cancelled our cell phones, the only "luxury" we have is internet because that keeps us in touch with job searches and gives the kids homework resources. Please help with whatever you can. Thank you so much.

Through a series of bad decisions and poor judgements i have found myself in the worst situation i could ever imagine. I lost my job 2 years ago as an explosives engineer in Virginia and ever since my life has been a downward spiral through trying to find stable work and maintain my bills. I took a leap of faith in october and decided to quit a decent job to help my sick mother start a small country market. She has Huntingtons disease and suffers from depression. I put what little money i had into the store and gave up my apartment to live above this store along with her so that we were close and available at any time. Long story short she ended up having a mental breakdown, Sucumbing to paranoid dillusions and conspiracy theories, and firing all but herself and a guy she had been dating for only a month prior to opening. When we started the store she agreed to pay my child support, rent and cell phone instead of a paycheck until the business started turning a profit. I wanted to help b/c she is my mother above all else. Now i have a warrant out for my arrest b/c i have been unable to pay DCSE. Because of this warrant i cannot get a job. My Ex-wife tried contacting the judge and DCSE and its done absolutely no good. She has since cancelled the support and we have come up with a private agreement but being as i still owe 3700 i still have a warrant out and as i said, i cannot even get a job. The system makes no sense and i dont wanna lose out on the next 6 months of my girls lives. Granted, i got myself into this situation by putting my faith into someone i shouldve known better than to put my faith in to and i dontt like asking for anything especially when its nobodys responsibility but my own, but i am left with little option. I am asking for any kind of help anyone might offer. I have an extensive background in construction managment and general construction from a field of grass all the way up to the shingles on the roof. If you live in virginia and need some help im more than happy to work in exchange for your donation. Thank you for taking the time to read my plea for help and god bless.

Hi, I'm a single mom. Recently unemployed. i paid what bills i could in advance when i found out my place of employment was going bankrupt. i cancelled my car insurance and turned my tags in. We are on the verge of being homeless and do not qualify for traditional assistance due to the fact that we rent a garage apt from sum1 that already receives assistance. A member of my family has offered us a home and a job (for me), but she is 950 miles away. I've looked into renting a moving truck with a tow package for our little car but its about $1000. or i can spend $500 to tag and insure our car, fill the tank, load up the trunk and just go. either way i will not have this amount of money in time to prevent us from being homeless. any assistance would be greatly appreciated. thank you

Hello, this is obviously a worst-case scenario type of thing, but that is the position I am currently in. My disabled mother lives with me, and I have been unemployed for 5 months. I have recently begun a new job with a healthcare company, however, the bills have piled up over the last few months, especially because the unemployment extension has been cancelled. Anyway, we have had our gas shut off, and our electricity is soon to follow. I know times are tough for everyone right now, so I am taking a shot in the dark to see if anyone can help. We have exhausted all other options (utility help non-profits and such), and are at the end of our rope. PLEASE HELP! I am hopeful that someone with a kind heart will help us. I can even pay you back over time with interest included, I just need some time to get a few paychecks in and get caught up. Please let me know if you are able to help, you can e-mail me at rlansky1@hotmail.com. Thank you, and God Bless You.

Hello, I am a recently divorced single mother.I had a small at home business ( designer,seamstress)that I have lost during the process of this divorce.I have created a web page on kickstarter to raise money to get it back.I have 2 sons and dream of being more available to them.One is in the hospital right now.He has cystic fibrosis.Sadly his lung capacity is down to 30% right now.I long to be my own boss again & have a flexible schedule so I can be with him during his 3 week "tune ups" in the hospital.He has been admitted every 3 months for 3 weeks at a time the past 1.5 years.It used to not be so often.On this site I will give a biography,short video, and links to pictures of my work.As well as a description of what I will specifically do with the money.I started on kickstarter before I found this site.If I meet my goal that ends in 63 days I get to keep the amount for my business plan.If I fall short, the entire thing is cancelled.Please check it out.Thank you! http://kck.st/czz2Ny
