Where to begin? Well Im currently pregnant, close to 7 months and working part time. Ive stepped in some muck lately but it just gets deeper, trying to get out though. I have a roof for which Im thankful but have nothing to cook on, I have an ok job but no transportation, Im being blessed with a second child at my age but no bassinette or car seat, I barely make the bills and have a disabled mom to support, but I get up every day and try. Im only asking for a little relief from worry as I near maternity leave (unpaid of course). If anyone can just donate spare change thats a few cents off my mind, and believe me worry weighs more than an elephant! Anything would be a blessing, pennies from heaven or a quarter from the ashtray in the car :) Thank You
I CAN'T LIVE IN MY OWN BODY, PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
Posted by helpmeplease1920 on 2012-05-10 21:58:46
Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my post. I am a 20 year old college student, and I am ashamed of my body. I have a condition known as tuberous breasts. It is a breast deformity that means my breasts are not fully formed, very droopy, and there is a nipple abnormality. It makes me feel like a freak. I never change around other people. I can't wear just any kind of outfit, and I never let anyone see my breasts, no matter the situation. I knew something was wrong and a plastic surgeon confirmed my suspicion. However, insurance does not pay for this. It costs about 5,500 for a lift, about 4,000 for implants, and about 1,000 for a nipple reduction. That is not counting medicines, medical garments, and other surgery related costs. My father works in a foundry; he does not have a college education. He could not afford it. I don't want to make him feel bad, but I already do. I know this condition will put my personal life on hold. I canât accept my body the way it is. It is holding me back. I loved to swim, but now I avoid it. I have cried a good deal over this predicament. Today was one of those days. I would work and try to save the money, but I have to worry about paying for college and the necessities first. I know there are others who need it more, but any help is appreciated. Money, of course, is nice. Iâll even take two cents. If you are a surgeon or you know one who can help me financially, I would love to hear from you! Have a great day and thanks!

Good Evening,
A group of us are trying to raise money for a local Hospice for children. We are accepting any and all forms of donations. No donation is to small. Even if you donate 10 cents, it will help us reach our goal of 2000. If you are not comfortable donating to us I understand. 100% of proceeds go to the hospice.

I was one of the few employees laid off in a state that somehow survived the recession largely intact, but my position didn't thanks to a governor who rejected parts of the stimulus package. After a struggle for searching for work at home, I set out, with the meager earnings I was able to produce through freelance writing, at a whopping two cents a word, camping along the way, to apply to every open position I could find across this country. 23 months later, I'm still searching. I'm not bilingual, and I don't have a degree. What I do have is experience, an amazing way to deal with people face to face and a ridiculous work ethic, but apparently those aren't the traits looked for in this job market, merely the person who was committed enough to spend four years on a campus.
The math, well, that and the awesome algorithms behind gmail tell me I've applied to 3,150 jobs in over a dozen states. Maybe a hundred interviews from the whole lot. And according to the IRS paperwork I sent in recently, my income last year was a far cry from the most recent classification of the poverty line.
Anything helps, and would be forever appreciated.
One of these days an application will lead to an interview which will lead to an offer, but until then, what? All I can do is keep plugging away. Sleeping in my car when I can't afford a cheap motel room. Waking up to an aggravated foot and hip thanks to my injuries in a life I feel so far removed from it doesn't even feel like it was real anymore.
And I guess, come across this site from the random google search of a desperate person, trying to find some help in a world that seems to have rejected her.
The more I write, the more I keep hearing that little voice on my head saying "Quit your bitching, there are those who have it far worse.", so I'll stop now. Again, any type of help is beyond appreciated. Thank you for reading this far.

Need Cash for Food
Posted by blooming_battlefield on 2012-04-23 13:58:01
I just recently got kicked out of my apartment from an unruly roommate, and I have been on the streets for a week. Being a 21-year-old female, trying to ask for donations pinned me with a bad name on the street, and has left me with nothing but 15 cents. I haven't eaten in days, and i can't find any source of food anywhere.

Help an Infant with food
Posted by LordX on 2012-04-06 17:58:38
This is a Donation listing to help my family - specifically my infant son - be able to save for college and get the healthy food he needs.
This is one donation you will give that you will know goes to the right place!
My husband and I are a 30 year old couple. We moved to NY State to start a life together - and did not plan to have children right away until we were financially secure.
My husband is a computer technician and he tries his best to support myself and our new addition.
Obviously our priorities have changed - and while it was easy to skimp during hard months when it was just the two of us, skimping on our babies health and education is simply something we can not live with.
Saving for college is something that we have tried to start doing immediately - since there is no way we would be able to afford it otherwise.
Having to choose between putting money into his NY 529 or buying healthier food is tearing us up.
Any donations to this listing will go directly into his 529 account. This will help ease our debt and allow us to get the proper food and clothing he needs.
In this hard economy, any donation is extremely appreciated - even 99 cents!
God Bless.
PS - as an after thought - any donations are tax write-offs.

Need money for bus fare
Posted by CLK3 on 2012-04-05 19:58:08
I have been homeless on and off for the last three years. While I do get food stamps, I have no other income. I am disabled, and am currently appealing to Social Security for disability, as I have mobility problems.
I have a disability card with my transit administration, that allows me reduced fare. My monthly bus pass in $16.50 per month, or 50 cents per day. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanx.

Need $150 to pay the bills BADLY by the 15th of April!
Posted by kham8811 on 2012-04-05 17:58:18
I am 23 and taking care of my younger 16 year old brother. Our bills are up to 150 dollars roughly and I can't get even family to help me get through this rut. Nobody seems to be able to help me, and I can't find a job. I can barely afford my medication now because I'm putting any few cents I have towards bills. I've had to survive off nothing but pasta and butter for the last few weeks. If anyone can give me even a little bit of help, it would surely be appreciated. If you need any real information such as evidence that this is in fact a real beg, just ask by sending me a e-mail at lovecraftian@ymail.com!
Need An iMac To Start My Career
Posted by amieb05 on 2012-03-15 15:58:34
This is highly embarassing for me to "cyber beg." Begging seems like such an awful word, but here I am asking for donations of anything! I don't care if it's 0.25 cents or $1. Anything helps.
I'm a struggling graphic designer in need of a new desktop Machintosh. I'm aiming to raise $1300 to buy a new iMac computer so that I can start designing to complete my portfolio and start applying for work. My last computer failed on me during finals in school. Thanks to my school's computer lab, I was able to finish my work and graduate. That was back in NYC. I couldn't afford living there on my own and had to come to a smaller town to live with parents. I worked minimum wage retail to gain some money, but the physical stress forced me to stop working due to muscle weakness problem I have. A medical affliction caused by a tumor that has been affecting my energy and skeletal/muscle strength for about 7 years. It was hard getting through school with my condition. It was twice as hard having to work on my feet for hours in a retail environment.
Double my misfortune, I live in a place where jobs are hard to come by. A small town which has a lot of developing to do and jobs are far between. I need a car to travel to the nearest grocery store and can't depend on parents to transport me everywhere. This is why a job is so imperative. I'd like to feel fulfilled knowing I'm doing something for my future and earning money to buy my needs. I wish I had the equipment to start looking for work.
I want an iMac more than anything in the world. If I had my iMac, I could update my portfolio, do some online freelance work and help my parents with some bills. I could start applying for jobs from home and not have to rely on my neighbor's iPad to browse the internet. Whenever my family goes to the mall in the weekends, I pass by our local Apple store and I see people walking out of the store with large boxes containing their brand new iMac's, Macbook Pro's or expensive iPad's...and I get angry.
Yes, I know it sounds terrible and I know not everyone buying a computer is a rich business mogul or an overpampered kid whose parents can buy them whatever they want, and they never have to worry about whether they could afford it or not. But it hurts me to know I'm in such a position, that although I am an adult who should be paying her parent's bills, I can't even help myself because I'm unemployed. No thanks to my stupid weak body that can't take a lot of physical strain, no thanks to ending up in a town where I can't get anywhere without having to walk at least two miles, no thanks to not having my computer...
My name is not Amelia. That is just a screen name because I am too embarassed to reveal my real name. I'd be so grateful to anyone that can help me reach my $1300 goal. I know Mac's are expensive, but they are the industry standard in what I do. I would like a desktop because they are durable and longer lasting. They can also take a lot processing power for the heavy graphic work I do. If you can find it in your time to spare any change .25 cents, $1, $5, I'll be grateful 'till eternity.
Anyone who donates, be kind to leave an email so that I can send you something in return for your favor.
Thank you and God bless,

99%? What about the 49%?
I do not believe I have any dedicated followers to this blog that I started about a week ago. I have added to the end of my blogs a donate button and I feel I need to justify the decision to do so. That is what this blog is about, and it probably should have been my first post.
It seems like there are three groups of people in America.
There is the rich. They get tax breaks simply for being rich. The philosophy is that if they spend less on taxes then they will invest it into production and buying stuff and it will âtrickle down.â I am all for it if it works. But it doesnât. They have had their tax breaks for about ten years and there isnât anything trickling down my way.
Then there is the very poor. They claim to be incapable of working 40 hours a week because of mental or physical issues. They donât get up very early in the morning, they donât worry about the way they look. They collect social security, food stamps, unemployment and whatever else they can get for free. I know there are some people that legitimately can not work but I think there are a great deal of people that can and choose not to.
Instead of the 99% movement lets start a 49% movement.1% is uber-wealthy. About 50% pay no taxes and/or are a drain on our society. So that leaves 49%. I am the 49 percent and that fucking sucks! We canât get ahead and we canât get a hand.
Let me tell you a little more about myself. I work 60+ hours as a salesperson, which is non-commission based position. There are some things we can sell and if we sell it at a certain margin we can get a âspiff.â Unfortunately I sell building materials and not a lot of people are building right now. Also the the things that you can get a spiff on are high-end items that are difficult to sell in a good economy. I still try like hell though. In the interest of getting as many hours as possible there is no job I will not do or that is too menial. I will sell, I will work out in the yard and drive a forklift, do deliveries, stack lumber, shovel snow, sweep, empty trash, stock shelves, answer the phone,work the register or anything else that will keep me from getting sent home or laid off.
I started this blog about a week ago. I was looking for another way to make money doing something I enjoyed in my âspareâ time. As well as working 60 hours a week I am also a divorced dad that takes his kids every weekend. So there isnât a whole lot of time for a second job. I looked into the Ebay thing and realized I really donât have anything left to sell.
Also looked into doing surveys. On average you can get a dollar for each 45-60 minute survey you take. I still do this occasionally. If I have time and can find a few that I feel are worth my time. Any little amount helps.
I thought I might eventually be able to monetize this blog by putting up enough content to get advertisers interested. It will probably take several months and a lot of writing before this might be possible. Until then I will keep the donate button on here.
My point here is that I started looking for a way to get my head back above water a week ago and things have gotten far worse since then. I went to the grocery store yesterday and in my estimation prices have gone up close to 25% on most of the things I buy. In a week!
And the price of gas....
My job is about a 25 minute commute from where I live. There is no public transportation where I live and I do not think a 25 minute commute is unreasonable. But even with a car that gets 28 miles to the gallon and gas prices being what they are it is a huge strain on the wallet. They are talking about the price of gas going up twenty cents over one weekend! I topped off yesterday in the hopes of saving two bucks.
I donât have the answers but it seems like this system of government and politics doesnât work. We elect a Republican for 4-8 years and when they fail to fix everything we elect a Democrat. They donât make our problems go away either and in another 4-8 years we try another Republican and so on. Its like having two cartons of milk in the refrigerator. You take a sip of one carton and its sour, you take a sip from the other carton and it is sour too. So you try the first carton again. What? Itâs still sour? Weird. Maybe we should try the second carton again....
Come on people! Canât we get together? We need to throw out the rotten fucking milk, get off our dead asses and get down to the store and buy some fresh fucking milk!
I was already falling behind. Then it only took one small medical emergency and one car repair to put me even further in the hole. Between money I had to put up for office visits, medical procedures that had to be done, car repairs, and lost time at work it cost me over a thousand dollars that I did not have to spend. Now I am possibly facing eviction.
And I know there are people out there that need the money far more than I do. I donât have cancer, my kids do not need a life-saving medical procedure and I am not living on the streets yet. All I am asking is that if you understand where I am coming from and you like what I have to say help me out and donate a couple of bucks. I am not asking you to âgive until it hurts,â and if you donât have it to give then I donât want it.
If you canât help me out by donating money, then help me out by sounding off in the comments and telling me how I can make this blog better or what I should do different. I openly welcome harsh criticism and all opposing viewpoints.
I am not looking for millions of dollars, thousands of dollars or even hundreds of dollars. I would be very happy with tens of dollars. Ten bucks accumulated over a week from several people would be a huge shot in the arm right now. If I made an extra ten bucks from donations it would buy me enough gas to get back and forth to work for two days. Or it would cover the rising cost of my grocery bill. Right now that would be huge.
Give what you can. Every penny counts. Or offer your suggestions or both. Donate some obscure amount and put that same amount in the comments or send me an email telling me the obscure amount you donated and I will reply personally to those comments and emails. I will probably respond whether you donate or not.

On knees, need an angel
Posted by Unluckierthanmost on 2012-02-27 06:58:48
Hope you read me, and hope even more that you will contribute. Too cut a long story (cue violin) short, I was made redundant for the first time in my life just before Christmas 2010, My wife then proceeded to divorce me - taking the kids, house and everything. To top it all, I have been losing my hearing since I was a kid, and have recently (summer 2011) have had a binaural (double) cochlea implant - which I hope will assist me in re-launching my life. I just need a few dollars/pounds/cents/pennies to help me get by until I get a job - nothing major, but enough to pay the bills/petrol. Most of the little income support I have is being swallowed up by bank charges, with the little remaining going on maintaining contact with the children, food and petrol. I would even appreciate a job if possible and am not fussy about what to do.
