Hi There,

My name is cheryl and I live in the Uk. I really hate to even ask for this but I dont see what else I can do.

I have had small breasts every since I was young. I have always been embarressed about them and have always wanted to have breast augmentation, but now it is really making me depressed. I have had 2 children, my youngest is one years old and I breastfed him for a year. Which really boosted my confidence and i felt great and I was so motivated. But now my breasts are nothing at all and im so depressed at the moment. I am self employed doing hair and beauty and with having 2 small children and bills to pay for, Its excepionally hard to try and save. I have considered and been looking for loan sharks but ive been warned off them.

So I was wondering if there are any generous people out there willing to help me along to bring my confidence back. I know some people say that they are just boobs and its stupid. But its not when I feel really low all the time and hate myself just because I dont feel like a young woman anymore.

I have always been involved in varies charity events and I always raise money for different events and campaigns, now im the one who needs the help.

Your support and any donation at all would be much appreciated.

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.

Dear Sir or Madam,

We are an average family who have fallen upon very hard times. My wife was let go from her work about 18 months ago with no severance pay and has been unable to find any payable employment since... she has been volunteering at the local school as a classroom assistant but really could do with finding some new work soon.

As you can imagine with my wifes income lost to us things have been tight for a while now so it was an awful second blow when my employers went into administration and the factory was finally closed with all employees laid off, again with no severance pay just over 6 months ago now by the Administrators... we had been hopeful of a buyout but it didn't happen and the whole lot of us were placed onto the scrapheap. As it was we had no payrise for the previous four years...

Things are now hitting crisis point for me and my family, I have only been able to find 4 weeks of paying work in the last six months... we have sold the family car to try and keep my daughter in college and have the house up for sale in the hope we can pay off the capital and start renting but if we don't make this next mortgage payment the bank are going to start foreclosure on us... as for my slightly younger son and his college future that is currently looking very unlikely...

The family pets (2 Cats and 1 Staffie Dog) are as much a part of this family as any of us yet we are now with great reluctance and heartfelt pain considering having to give them up to a the local rescue centre... I think I will cry a thousand tears if I have to let them go but I need to be pratical and focus on my wife and children and putting them first... For I will cry a million tears if I let them down any further than I already have...

Any HELP you can give us will be most gratefully received and a prayer of thanks will be said for every penny.

God Bless you and God Bless America.

Many thanks for reading this.

Please help me I am in a really bad spot. In 2006 husband died..we owned an internet cafe. In 2007 I closed cafe & started looking for another IT job...no luck even for data entry or help desk (still looking but am told I don't have current skills & no money to get update/education).

Thank you for considering my request...will provide proof of donations...you will have my eternal gratitude & appreciation.

Until recently, our child was cared for by a family member while we went to work. It helped us out immensely and we are very grateful for what they have done for us. Now however, due to health reasons, they can no longer help us out. Unfortunately, we cannot afford either of us to be out of work, but we are finding it increasingly difficult to pay for childcare. It doesn't help that my new childcare provider has messed up and is billing us twice. This is of course being looked into, but until it is sorted we keep receiving payment reminders and it is adding to the pressure. I'm looking for an evening job or weekend work to help make ends meet, but again there is the issue of childcare. My husband works 60 + hours a week and has health issues himself, but can't have the time off work he needs to sort the issue as he is self employed, and we simply cant afford for him not to work. We spent some of our savings on renovating our home, but we're unlucky enough to employ a rather dishonest person to carry out the work, and so had to spend the remainder of our savings putting things right. The house still isn't completed, we desperately need a new boiler and a washing machine, but at the moment just cannot afford them. Our child starts school this year, so we only have to struggle for a few more months, but until then any help would be greatly appreciated. I have considered starting my own childcare business so I can work while caring for my own child, but that requires funding. I guess I'm just feeling a bit down at the minute, and in need of a fairy godmother!!

Former executive injured years ago, totally disabled trying to live on SSI. I was recently diagnosed with cancer. Gas prices killing me faster than health. Living in car. Need $1,000 for phone, car payment insurance, and food. Totally of $5,000 getsfor me hometo and assured future. Thanks for considering.

I'd never considered anything like this before, but today we've finally been pushed over the limit. I am a married man in my early twenties with two kids, a boy age 6, a girl age 2. Things have been going great until this month, I recently lost my job, I was a caregiver and the family no longer needs me, my wife goes to school and is so close to finishing, but until then we're hurting. As of today, our car got hit and the front bumper and headlights broke off and were crushed, my wife was the one in the accident, she was in a panic and didn't know what to do, swapped information and did nothing else, after that they said it was her fault, so it's going to cost us 988$ to get repaired. I've been trying to find new work, but like everywhere else it's scarce. We're already giving up most elective activities, we lost cable last week. x.x

Thanks for taking your time to read this, if you did, and if you help you will receive a personalized thank you.

I am 2 months behind on rent. I would appreciate any and all assistance. Any and all assistance would be considered gifts with no conditions attached whatsoever.

*******Please take a moment to read this.******

I am surprised I am doing this but I am looking for some way to get ahead. My husband and I both work full time but we just can't seem to get past a wall that we've hit. Our debt started to accumulate as we were raising our children. My husband is actually stepfather to my two children and support payments from the bioligical father were far and few between. My children are young adults now and I will never see the $25K that is owed in back support. Ironically, we have about $20K in credit card debt. With credit cards maxed out, credit scores go down so trying other options such as consolidation loans have gone nowhere. We have tried earning extra money on Ebay but by the time they collect all their fees there's not much left for us. I have searched the internet for ways to earn extra income but find more scams than legitimate opportunities. Every month it seems to become more difficult. It's a juggling act just trying to keep up with everything.

I have always considered myself a generous person. I volunteer in the community and would love nothing more than to contribute more, especially financially. If we can get this debt under control, I would have the ability to "Pay it Forward".

Hi, I'm Brittany, and I'd like to describe an unfortunate event that has recently befallen me.

Four months ago, during the holiday season I received a call from my mom who was facing some rather emotionally tumultuous times. She related to me that she felt like she just could not endure her life any longer and was considering ending it.

I was personally extremely concerned, as I have always highly valued and admired her. At her request, I quickly forsook all my current ambitions to come to her aid. I moved into her apartment with her and tried to soothe her with my company, and also advised her about healthy lifestyle choices that could help balance out her severe depression and alcoholism. I got a job and began helping her pay her bills when her boyfriend showed up. His first words to me were literally "I'm marrying your mother" not long after he began to command my mom to kick me out.

After many attempts to assure them I would surely save money to get my own apartment, I bought a truck to get worked on and began to save money for an apartment. At first I considered moving to stay with other family members, but eventually decided to stay in Sarasota and get my own apartment.

Without giving me any notice to find another place to live, my new "step father" stated that I would no longer be welcome there, although they knew I had no other options or any money to get an apartment.

They then went to a judge and filed a Marchment act to have me involuntarily placed in a detox facility where I was released under forty-eight hours later with negative results for all substances, including alcohol.

Now I am left on the streets with nowhere to go.

What I am asking of anyone who reads this, please assist me with any kind of resources that you know of, such as live-in maid employment, rooms for rent, a place to stay until I save money for an apartment or anything that will help me be independent again.

I've never done this before, and really wish I didn't have to. Just recently my significant other lost his job and has not been able to find any work, we have a 3 year old son and we have been struggling to keep current on all of our bills, and now we are 3 months behind on our gas/electric, and at least a month behind on water, phone and credit card bills. To top it off my car has stopped running and my significant others car is not running well and needs new tires, which definitely isn't good considering how far I have to travel for my job. We really just need help catching up, anything will help. Thank you

I've never been more uncomfortable asking for anything. I always felt ashamed. My mother once told me, it's how you view yourself, and that you shouldn't feel bad or ashamed. Well for me asking for help from people I do not know makes it hard. August 18th of 2012, I will be getting married, first wedding, and Im happy! Unfortunately, my fiance and I need help. I won't go into the total of the wedding, only b/c we both work and are trying to go it alone. Besides, I feel that, that would be a bit selfish, to put numbers out there as if to have it paid fully by anyone. Any donation would be most appreciated. Again, I would like to thank you in advance for reading or even considering donating to my dream day!

Respectfully,

An ask for help...

hi, I'm 27 yrs old with 3 small children. Nearly a month and a half ago everything was going great, my partner proposed to me, we had plans on saving for a house and to hopefully move back to our hometown which we moved a yr earlier to start fresh and have a good life for our children. We moved so my fiance could get a good paying job. But what happen he was told suddenly there's no work at the moment and don't know how long he be out of work for. He called them the other day and told him still a month maybe 2! Which i could not believe and sound like there stuffing him around and that's a long time to be out of work when you got a family to provide. He cant go on centrelink because legally he still has a job and hasn't been fired. I don't think we ever been so broke and feel quite ashamed that i am begging now and would not if i was not desperate. I even considered hocking my engagement ring. The way things are going i think i might have too. I have been scraping up coins out of my son's money box to buy milk and bread. And just barely had enough to buy nappies and formula. I'm $750 behind in rent and I know they will be sending me a letter to pay the rent in 7 days or we will be evicted, and I dont even want to think about that because we are all the way on the other side of the country away from our home with just me my fiance and children. On top of that I'm overdue on my electricity bill that i already got a extension from. And my children all need new clothes for the colder season and most of their warm clothes are now to small for them now. I also started up my own online store a few months back which than i could afford with all the start up cost to at the time my fiance was working now that is put on the bottom of my list. So anyway what I'm asking for is just some generous help and would really appreciate any donations to help us get back on our feet. Thank you very much it's greatly appreciated

Thank You so very much for your help. Heres my story. I am in my early 30s. I am a mother of two loving kids ages 4 and 9. My husband moved out a year ago after a bout of depression, stating "I love you thats why I cant stand to stay here n watch you die like this!" And it is true anyone who has watched a loved one waste away before thier eyes can tell you it eats your soul. In a way I cant blame him. I have hopes we will someday get our family back together. Untill then I am in this alone, and now find my self here asking you for help.
I have several cronic illnesses. Including scoliosis:Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty. While scoliosis can be caused by conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most scoliosis is unknown. My scoliosis curve got worse, the spine rotated and twisted, in addition to curving side to side. This caused the ribs on one side of the body to stick out farther than on the other side. Severe scoliosis can caused back pain and difficulty breathing. In my case In severe scoliosis, the rib cage may press against the lungs and heart, making it more difficult to breathe and harder for the heart to pump.I also experience harsh neurological affects of Muscle weakness, Numbness and Abnormal reflexes. To save my life I had to have surgery.
Surgery involves correcting the curve (although not all the way) and fusing the bones in the curve together. The surgeon lays bone grafts across the exposed surface of each vertebra. These grafts will regenerate, grow into the bone, and fuse the vertebrae together. The bones are held in place with one or two metal rods held down with hooks and screws, helping to support the fusion of the vertebrae.I went through all this at age 13. But now with the onset of sevral more cronic illness complication from the surgery that once saved my life now slowly kill me.
Years later I began getting sicker and sicker by the time I was 20 my spine was degenerating causing horrible pain, I had to have my appendix removed, then gallblader went bad. We never dreamed these all had a common factor. Doctors just shook their head proclaiming :you are just so young for your body to be failing like this". Eventually it was discovered I have Lupus and severe arthritus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease, meaning that the body' s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy organs and tissue. Lupus can affect any part of the body, causing inflammation and damage in joints, skin, kidneys, heart, lungs, blood vessels, or the brain. More than 90% of people with lupus have skin rashes, often triggered by exposure to the sun, and about half have kidney and lung problems. Because lupus affects the joints, it is considered a rheumatic (arthritis) disease.
Upon this discovery things began to make sense. So doctors now knowing why began a body wide check up to see what all has been affected. One test was A bone mineral density (BMD) test measures how much calcium and other types of minerals are present in a section of your bone. Your health care provider uses this test, along with other risk factors, to predict your risk of bone fractures in the future and detect osteoporosis. Bone fracture risk is highest in people with osteoporosis. They found I indeed had osteoporosis at the age of 22. SO now My bones are weaking causing damage areas all over my body, but the most serious being in my spine. Now comes the arthritis/lupus, they see these damaged areas and my own imune system attacks. Eating at the damaged areas creating even more damage, which increases the area the lupus attacks. It is a vicious circle. I have now been treated with medication over 10 yrs. But they can only slow the illness there is no cure, and dure to my scoliosis and the metal rods in my back surgical treatment options are very limited.
The damage is so severe I was decared legally disabled by the age of 23. My only income is SSI. I have to support my children and I on 658.00 a month. Thank God the court issued my ex to pay my rent in lue of child support. I am asking for help to cover upcoming medical bills. In the last 14 months I have had 5 seperate kidney surgery. My right kidney is damaged and I will soon be having a 6th surgery. This one to remove damaged section of the tube that leads from the kidney to bladder. then they will reattach at a higher section of bladder. I will aslo be having several Jaw surgeries. Due to exposure to radiation, osteoperosis a excessive vomiting of stomache acid my teeth are breaking and falling out. The doctor needs to repair what they can and put in inplants for what they cant. This will slow the degineration of my jaw. Without this treatment my jaw is going to cave in. Currently I am only able to eat mushy foods. I have drastically lost weight and my body is stuggling to heal due to the stress, pain and infection. So I hunbly beg of you to help me 1.00 or 50.00 anything would help. These procedures will not only improve my quality of life but aslo help extend my time here on earth just a little ehile longer. I just want to be with my kids as long as I can.Whith each dollar you donate its like adding an hour to my life.....What would you give for a few more hours with the ones you love?

Hi,

My son was recently accepted into a special needs private school. This school will help him where his public school has not been able to. It will give him a chance to learn and to get a better at the frustration he feels when he is unable to understand an assignment. He is also a severe asthmatic, who has been to the emergency room over 20 times in his young life. He is only 9. He is also allergic to dairy, eggs, wheat, beef , seafood,nuts and several other foods.

Due to his asthma and food allergies, I am also a young single mother and money is restricted. He thankfully received a partial scholarship to the school, but I am having trouble coming up with a portion of the remainder. I would appreciate any help from anyone out there. I need to come of with $10,000.

Even if nobody can help, I thank you for considering it.

I am not even asking for money. I just need a cosigner for my GraduatePLUS loan for med school and don't have anyone. I have been accepted to Ross University for September, 2012. I am getting the standard Direct loan from the government but that does not even come close to covering the cost of med school so I also need the government PLUS loan, which requires a credit check. I have OK credit, but it's not great and I know I won't qualify.

I know that this is a huge undertaking, especially for a stranger. I also realize the added risk to you, given the fact that I will be attending a foreign medical school. However, I am an incredibly driven and responsible person who will (obviously) stop at nothing to realize my dream of becoming a doctor. If you are considering helping me, please make yourself aware of how this might affect your credit until I can release you from the loan (because I am not even 100% aware of what all of the implications might be. I was a biology major, not a finance major). Best case scenario: you have enough money and good enough credit that this will never affect you; you can sign it and forget about me as I promise I will never cause you any trouble. One thing is for sure: if you do this for me, I will certainly never forget you. Please have some faith in the human race and help me help others. Thank you.

Hi. My Name is Robert. I am a 28 year old male who has recently moved to a new state in search of a better life. I have not had the best of luck with jobs. The job lined up for me fell through, and I began working temp jobs to make ends meet. I was staying with family and was out of work from Thanksgiving to New Years. I found a new job in mid January and then was asked to move out of my families house on February 1st. I am doing all that I can (working 70 hours a week) but unfortunately it isn't enough. I am late on rent and need $825 to cover March and April. I am also past due on car payments and approaching 60 days late. I am needing $550 for that. I have tried applying for loans and continue to be denied. I am also stuck in the payday loan cycle and am paying interest every two weeks to refinance. With just $3,000.00 total I will be able to get caught up and take the training courses I need for my job to increase my salary and be able to continue to pay bills in a timely manner.

I know there are others here who need help more than I, I just am at my wits end with phone calls and letters demanding payment. I have considered sleeping in my car just to make the payment. I do not have anyone in my family who can help and I am not an irresponsible kid living beyond my means. I am currently sleeping in an empty bedroom on an air mattress and going hungry 2-3 days a week just to pay what I can.

I humbly ask anyone out there who can help me please do. Once on my feet, I have every intention to give back to others. Anything helps. God Bless.

I'm not usually one to ask for help, but things have gotten so bad in the recent months that I don't have anywhere else to turn. I'm 21 years old and my partner is 28, and we were recently laid off. We've been working odd jobs in the past months, but have still been having trouble making ends meet - to the point where we are several months behind on some of our bills. While we both have been seeking employment, the job market is less than friendly. We're now considering selling our car to keep the apartment. Is anyone out there willing to help us?

I'm not begging for money because too many people ask for money and don't use it for what they say they are. I'm taking the 'risk' out of such things happening here.

My family is like a lot of others right now. My husband has been laid off for over a year now and no prospects of a new job. Kids have moved back home with us and our food supply is dropping low.

We planted a garden that is big enough to handle the family (7 families in all!! Thank GOD not all of them are married with kids!) I have (I think) plenty of jars scrounged from other places, dumps etc. But what I DO NOT have are the lids! You can't can if you don't have the lids. I'm looking for the reusable "tattler" lids and rings. That way I don't have to find new ones after every use.

If you feel led to help my 'little' family please go to the Tattler website and send whatever you feel comfortable with. I know it would be GREATLY appreciated with every meal we are able to sit down to.

Thank you so much for reading and considering. God bless you and yours.
