Help Send my Daughter to College

Posted by loisryan on 2012-05-23 13:58:43

Update: I will need $2000 by July for a down payment. Then I pay the rest in installments. If I get at least the $2000 I can get the rest by make weekly and monthly payments.

My daughter is going to college in the fall to study veterinarian science. She will be attending SUNY Delhi. The cost for the tuition is approximately $20,000. After getting college loans and financial aid of $500 (unbelievable) we have to pay $6,000 out of pocket for the rest of the costs. We can't get any more loans because we are at our limit. Here is how you can help. I have published a book on amazon kindle. It is a fantasy novel geared for teens/young adults. This is the link: http://www.amazon.com/The-White-Knight-ebook/dp/B0055RYV62/ref=sr_1_6?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1336572831&sr=1-6 I am only selling it for $2.99. For every purchase, my daughter will be $1.00 closer to college.

If you do not have a kindle, you can read it for free here http://www.feedbooks.com/userbook/23318/the-white-knight

All I am asking is if you do read it, please make a small donation to my paypal account.

If you are unable to make any sort of donation, I understand. The economy is not the greatest. But if you read my book and write a review on the kindle site, it will help draw in other buyers.

Any help is appreciated. Even if this does not work, I can get the money out of my 401K. However, I am 46 years old and if I do this, I will not have much money in there to retire. This is something I should have started earlier in life. Therefore, I only have about 12,000 in there right now.

Unemployed and last year in School---NO MONEY

Posted by legendpink on 2012-05-22 18:58:19

Hi,

I have been working since high school and have recently lost my job my junior year in college. My courses start in the summer because i had to sit out spring. I have used all loans and grants that are available to me and feel as if I have reached a dead end. I need $1300per semester and have two left so that is $2600. But if I can get ANYTHING that would be great!!!! Thanks for reading and if you can-- help-- if not that's fine. I'm sure God will find a way :-)

MS ruined my dream

Posted by daydreamer on 2012-05-22 13:58:59

I spent 5 years working so hard to achieve my goal of becoming the first person in my family to get their college degree. One year shy of graduating I was hospitalized and diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I lost my job and had to go down to part time due to health problems, and I no longer have the ability to continue on with my dream. I physically can not do it. My medical bills continue to mount and I now have $75,000 in student loans I have to pay back for something I will never be able to use. MS is an expensive disease to have, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. I am devastated and completely lost. I am out of options and money and each day that passes is bringing more stress than the one before. I am doing everything I can but I can't keep up with the collection calls anymore. If you feel it in your heart to help I can promise your kindness will not go unrewarded.

Need help to defray adoption costs and get an education

Posted by Paupermom on 2012-05-22 08:58:34

I used up my savings to adopt a child from a bad situation. I am sick with worry not knowing how I will pay my bills. I'm in my mid 50's and am haven't been able to get a job. I do not have a college education. If I could get enough money to get ahead on my bills, I would like to go to nursing school so I can more easily pay my bills and help others in need.

Please help this desperate mom.

I require money for College Software and Computer.

Posted by wayfall on 2012-05-21 18:58:41

My name is Daniel Kirke

I am a College student with a plee for help among many others. I am doing a BTEC Level 3 Diploma in Games Development.
But the modeling and game engine software is insanely expensive. I also require a powerful computer for the creation of these games and the use of the powerful modelling software which i need.
My family can not afford this, so i have to work in College on my coursework. I am not able to work at home as the computer we have is not powerful enough. My Family find it exceeding difficult, especially me as it is showing on my grades because of my lack of work that i can hand in. I can not keep up.

I would be greatful for any donates towards this fund.

Thank you for your concern.

College Student

Posted by wrought on 2012-05-21 16:58:16

I am entering my senior year of college. I have been working full-time throughout my college career to help support my family--my mother, who has been laid off and unable to find a job that pays as high as she needs, my sister and her daughter (my eight month old niece), who I also babysit whenever possible, and my boyfriend, who also lives with us. We all work as much as we can -- my mother works three jobs. We need assistance, to keep our home, to keep necessary hygienic products and food in our home, to pay college debt, etc. Absolutely anything will help.

Family Help

Posted by mama1971 on 2012-05-21 10:58:17

Our problems began in 2010. My husband was injured on the job that he was doing although he has severe health issues. After getting injured he was later fired. At this time he is pursuing disability and we have workers comp suit in place. In the mean time we are currently living day by day. I work part time and have been trying so hard to get a full time position. My daughter in a freshman in college and my son a freshman in high school. My daughter made an adult decision and got pregnant. She is an awesome girl and abortion isn't an option for her. We are doing everything we can to add room to our home. We had an unfinished bonus room that we would like to complete for the baby since her room is only a 10 by 10. We are very simple people with a real need. We just want to get caught up or ahead somewhat on our bills. What makes this different is we would like to pay it back to anyone who is willing to give us a break. The disability takes time as does the workers comp suit. We are hard working people who only want what is best for our family. We are looking at around 3 to $5,000. As I said If the lender is someone local I can work for it also. I can clean or cook. We will take anything that is offered. We just need a little help. Thanks so much for reading.

Family in Need

Posted by mharris10 on 2012-05-21 00:58:56

My family of three (Husband, 5 year old son, and myself) are in some serious financial debt right now, and is in the process of possibly being evicted if our rent and bills are not paid. We were not that far behind until my husband lost his only form of income (unemployment) a month ago, and has still not been able to find a job due to this economy. We are struggling to even keep our lights on, my husband and myself have been taking side jobs to earn extra money, just so that we can assure our son eats. We are not asking to live a lavish lifestyle from what we are now, we just want to know that we can by the grace of GOD turn our situation around to where our precious son can keep a roof over his head.

We were full time college students until we had to drop out, in order to try and make sure that we stay afloat. So now we also have student loans in default, as well. Things seem to be piling up left and right, and honestly I feel like I'm beginning to drown in all the stress.

I am just looking for some help, for my beautiful family.

May god bless you, in everything that you do.

Please contact me, and I would love to talk to you some more if you are interested in helping out our family.

Thank you.

Last semester of college

Posted by maryka on 2012-05-20 23:58:45

Hello,

I have been hesitant to write this post but I am really desperate. I am a psychology pre-med student with a 3.9 GPA in my final year of college. I also volunteer at a local hospital 20 hrs a week and at a counselling center. I work as a tutor and have been able to raise money for one semester, however I simply cant afford my last semester which is 2500. I would love to work more hours but i am an international student, therefore I can only work 20 hours a week.

I am begging anyone willing to help me, to help in anyway. I ahve come so close and worked so hard, I cant imagine quiting at this point.

Posted by needamiracle on 2012-05-19 15:58:12

I am 22 year old recent college graduate struggling to find a job after graduation, thus I am struggling to pay all of my bills. I am now on the verge of homelessness. My parents are homeless as well and I come from an extremly poor family, so I have no safety net for moments like this. I have run out of savings and I have been searching for a job. I am now swallowing my pride because times are tough especially since I come from humble beginnings and I have no social connections. I have never been the type to ask for things but I don't want my pride to negatively affect my well being. I put myself through school and I am the first in my family to go to college, unlike other kids my age where their parents take care of everything for them, my father is dead and my mom is homeless as well. I really need help. I am out of options.

LIFE

Posted by sweetpsalms on 2012-05-19 09:58:33

I don't like the word beg but I guess that is what it is. My pride is high and I hate asking for help but I don't know what else to do. I saw something on TV and decided to try this. Here goes!
I am a 39 year old with 3 children and a disabled husband. I have a lot of issues right now that I am trying to deal with and keep my family off the streets. I don't mind sharing my story if need be because honesty is the best policy. My husbands SSI is very low, as if he has not really worked and he is over 50. I have been trying to keep my head up and keep my bills paid. I work but my job is a PRN position because it was all I could get. I was making a fairly good pay until they decided our department needed cut backs and cut our hourly pay almost three dollars. I am trying so hard to finish school to be a LPN and then a RN. I have been trying to finish school since 1992. I know that if I can get my degree, I can provide for my family. So, I have bills up my butt and school is hard. Now, I am dealing with losing my financial aid because though I have a high enough GPA, my other cumulative average is below standard. I knew nothing about that. I was focusing on making sure my grades were good enough. My 14 year old daughter is pregnant and I can't even afford to begin buying baby things or think of how to save for it. My husband is so content with his little check until nothing else matters. My oldest daughter is in college with me trying to get her LPN but her hearts desire is to be an OB/GYN but they changed the required score level for the SAT and ACT and she registered one quarter to late to get in. Had she registered earlier, she could have gotten in the school she wants to attend but now she has to go to a local college and earn credits and then transfer, IF her grades are good enough. ON top of all that, my husband was just hit in the rear by another driver and our car was totaled and he was hurt. So, my only car, of which I was paying on still, is gone and I owe to much on it for the insurance to pay it off.
I feel overwhelmed, depressed and like I will never make it. I am working, attending school, and trying to write a book and do a gospel CD. Anything to try and bring in money to support my family. I really don't know what else to do.
I don't know if this works or not, but I am willing to try. I have felt so bad until at times I wanted to just end it all but I know that is not the example I want for my children. I want to see my grand daughter born and I want my children to finish school and do better than me, but also see me come out of my struggle. I keep telling them I am going to buy the house we live in, they keep laughing and even with that, the land lord is talking about putting it on the market because I can't come up with what I need to even start buying. I pray that God blesses my household and family. If someone does decide that my issues are worth helping, then I pray God bless you with an overflow for your blessing me. I don't know what else to say but thank you in advance. As embarrassed as I am, I can only pray this is real. If not, at least I got to vent and get it all of my chest. I had no one else to tell anyway.
Thank You!

Soon to be student! Part time job help little.

Posted by Fersure on 2012-05-19 00:58:17

I am a soon to be student. I have a part time job but with gas money and bills i have barely anything saved. Ive also just bought my first car which took all the savings i had before. Finacial aid will help little especially when getting my books wont be covered and the drive to college will eat up more gas. Im not asking for much. Even just a dollar. Please help.

Car Completely Died, Need New Solution!

Posted by TuckerJ on 2012-05-18 13:58:05

My 1997 Chevrolet has stopped running. I overpaid $2700.00 for it, and now to fix it, it will cost more than it's value. I live far away from my job where I just started working this week after looking for work for more than four months. So in a nutshell, I'm completely broke.

I decided that the safest route to go would be to buy a scooter, as they're more convenient, there's less likely for something to go wrong, and they're cheaper and better on gas. However, I have absolutely no money to buy one, and since I have no vehicle or transportation what so ever, I won't be able to make it to work, and this will only make my situation worse.

I have found some very nice used scooters for $500 on craigslist nearby. I would so incredibly grateful if you could help me with this $500 and I will have NO problem paying you back $100 or more a month via. paypal until I have paid you off. I can't take out a loan because I'm only 20 and haven't developed enough credit to do so (trust me, I've been down that route).

If you do this for me, I will be able to get to work, by groceries, and keep on going until things get better for me. Also, I was recently accepted into Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and a scooter would be perfect for getting around a place like that.

That's all I need, just $500. I'll pay you back monthly, I'll also give you any information you need in order to prove to you that I'm good for it. I can even set up a contract (if need be) stating that I WILL pay off said vehicle by a certain date.

Thank you very much for even taking the time to read this and consider.

-Tucker J

$2000 credit debt, unpaid bills

Posted by madder00 on 2012-05-18 06:58:59

I'm a college student considering dropping out in order to help my family with the rent and bills that have been piling up. I'm supposed to be taking care of my mum, but instead, she's taking care of me, my drop out sister and drunk of an ex boyfriend, neither of which are willing to help her financially. I have given everything I could, but its still not enough.

I need to get my credit down again so I can start pumping out rent, or we'll lose our place. We've already lost cable and we're shaky on electricity. I recently put 600$ towards an investment where I was supposed to have a table at an art convention, but my table was lost due to an "administrative error" and my investment was completely lost. I've tried making up for it by promoting my art online, but with little success.

Anything would help. Anything.

I am a member of my high school's swing choir. The swing choir is planning a trip to New York where we will perform at trump tower and see some Broadway shows. I have never been to New York. I live in a very small town and would love to have this experience. The cost is $1200. $275 is due in June. I have been working part time, but will not be able to make the deadline. With three people in my family in college, my parents cannot afford this expense. Please help me with this experience!

help with family of special needs kid

Posted by specialneedsmom on 2012-05-16 16:58:00

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.
