As I said I am sure you heard someone saying they need help. If you are reading this. It is hopeful that you are here to help someone with a request. AND I am more hopeful you have come to my ad to help me.

You see, I have been waiting for the last four years for what I call my turn. In that I have been waiting to find a job. Not much luck there. For my turn to live in a better home, with stuff that does not have bedbugs because there is no help in the area for beds and that do not come with those little blood suckers. My lags are still littered there bit marks.

It is so depressing because I am gaining way to much weight. AND because I only get food stamps. I cannot really afford the healer stuff. Out side my rent. I get less then $30.00 a month to live on ($29.00). That is $14.50 every two weeks. I barely have enough to buy the essentials. I am more then just struggling. I am almost suffering.

MY past makes it hard for me to get a job. AND I cannot improve my past if I cannot get a job. I have a hard time getting to school to get my GED. Because I have a lack of reliable transportation. AND that is in part of why I am here.

I am asking ANYONE. With the ability to help me with any little bit they can. Your generosity, will go towards helping me pay off my debt, buy a vehicle (and register it and insure it), and with any luck get on my feet.

You see, I have this plan. If I could get as close to $10,000 as possible (I am willing to pay back anyone willing to help me-upward of twice that if you can help with all that at once). To one pay back as much of the $1,000 give or take a few dollars (or close to because I could likely get the company to settle for less. Then I will like to buy me a truck (heavy duty or a former U-Haul) fix it up, register it, and insure it my guess is something like $8,000. The rest will go toward buying a bed that does not have bed bugs. Get a new par of boots (which cost about $50.00 locally). Blankets, pillows (again with out the bugs), and some other little bits and tickets.

But if I could get help with even half that I will make it work some how. (not to sound ungrateful). I appreciate the time it took to read this. AND To read others stories. I wish I could get on my feet it might very well be a day I will return and help someone out on here to. But like everyone else, I am in need to.

Now in closing. I do not know if I am more deserving or not. But if you could help me, perhaps make it my turn. I will not let what you help me with pass me up. Please help where you can. Even if all I get is like $500.00 I could buy me a bed. AND those little twinkets. I was talking about. Every dollars counts. Thanks for helping me, and other people.

Dear friends,
As most of you donors need to know, I am a seeking funds to open up a restaurant. I have fast food management experience and I desire to own my own restaurant. Currently our family donate monies to charity helping people where most needed and I would like to empower myself financially to give even more generously by owning my own business. Our donations from the funds raised by our restaurant also assist in being used to help feed, clothe, and empower those less fortunate, who simply cannot afford the basic essentials of life. It's a great cause, and I'm proud to be a part of it.
This year 2012, I am asking for monetary donations to help reach this goal. With the current state of the economy, it's become even more important to raise money to reach a financial goal to assist in opening up a business that will help others less fortunate.
My goal is to raise $4,500 to help open up my restaurant, so I can continue to help those in need and better myself as well. Will you please consider a monetary donation to this project Your donation may be used as a tax deduction.

Please Donate whatever you can to help me get this
Sincerely,
Startup

Sitting here trying to think of how to start this "beg" my mind does a fast playback of the last 5 years which seems to find me sitting here trying to think of how to start this "beg".

To type it all out would be exhausting, depressing and most importantly, a total disregard of your time. I will try to keep this as short and to the point as possible.

Five years ago my stepfather and mother were forced out of the home they had rented for 15 years after the real estate market came to a halt. My stepfather had always been very successful in commercial real estate but unfortunately did not save or invest for the proverbial "Rainy Day".

Totally in the dark, my mom continued spending money on daily needs and wants unaware that the essentials such as utilities and rent were not being paid. After realizing that my stepfather had no monies coming in and facing eviction she called me asking if I could help out by loaning them enough money to pay back rent and past due utility bills. Yes, I realize what most of you are thinking and I wholeheartedly agree but I was assured that one of John's deals would be closing within the next couple of months at which time the money borrowed would be repaid.

Needless to say the deal fell through and my money has not been repaid and what started out as a $5,000 loan from credit cards has more than doubled when factoring in all of the payments I have made and continue to make plus the mounting interest charges. They are now in their seventies with health issues and living month to month on social security.

The reality is that I will never see my money and will probably be paying for a very long time. Some people I suppose would file a lawsuit which for me is simply out of the question for 2 reasons. (1.) I love my mom dearly and I try to look at it as payment for the years she spent raising, doctoring, feeding, clothing and housing me. The second reason is obvious. Blood cannot be extracted from a turnip.

I know that there are a lot of people in much worse shape than I am in right now and I am employed, however I am now 5 months behind on what is called an upside down mortgage which I am trying to hold onto at least until home values come back. I would be more than happy to sell it for what I owe but there are major repairs (the roof being top priority) which have to be made before I can even hope to sell.
My goal is to pay off the credit card debt and if Bank of America doesn't foreclose on my house I hope to make the need repairs so I can at least sell for what I owe and then rent a small affordable apartment or house. Please... Any help that you can give will be greatly appreciated. Thank You & God Bess!

Hi. I am a 23 year old single mother to be beautiful little 4 year old boy. I have been working since I was 17 and have never found myself in financial trouble like I am currently.

To even think about having to sink to this level, and do something like this was something I have never dreamed of. However, I have recently lost my job and am not 2 months behind on my mortgage payment. I am having absoulutely no luck in finding something and have been taking any kind of side work I can for food and the essentials.

In addition to my situation, my son is special needs. he was diagnosed with severe autism at 1 1/2, and requires to eat a special diet, go to the therapy, and have special care.

I am nearly on my last leg and am not sure what to do at this point. Any help, donations, or what not to help me get caught up on my mortgage would be a God send.

I thank you for time in reading this. God Bless.

Hi i moved into my house about 7 months ago, its privately rented and i have missed 2 months rent and my lanlord threatens to kick me out and i have nowhere else to go all the family i had are now deceased, my partner has not long ago left me, i have a little girl aged 2, she is all i have left and i am classed as disabled and cannot work no more and the benefits do not pay for the mortgage and im short by £500, all the money that i have has gone food for my little girl, im even going without food just so she can eat, ive sold everything in my house that is possible i only have the bare minimum essentials left. im using my friends mobile to post this as i sold my laptop, my phone will be the next thing to go but that is my lifeline and need it in case of an emergency, £500 is what i need but anything is better than nothing and i would be so grateful if any amount of donations would be made

My family recently lost their home in Nashville Tennessee and we moved back to the Northwest to be with family.

We sold all of our belongings of value to raise the money for my father's medical transport that cost over $12,000.00 as he can not fly commercial.

My father suffered a sever stroke in 2008, he has been paralyzed and bed ridden ever since.

My mother and I care for him full time to keep him out of a nursing home as we know this would be a death sentence.

I did recently find work and am about to start my new job and with the help of a co-signer we were able to get an apartment that we will move into Friday.

However, that being said our income vs the cost of living is still far from being on par and we have no furniture, no beds, no dishes absolutely nothing as well as just a couple outfits each.

I also do not have a car at the moment and just found out that taking the bus from our new place to where I am going to be working will take about 2 hours each way per day because of the routing and changes.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, I have never been in a situation like this and it feels horrible to have to ask strangers for help, unfortunately my entire family is broke as well and has only been able to offer us love and some food.

even $5.00 helps, as we are trying to pool together funds to just get the living essentials for a new apartment as I mentioned before we really did sell everything literally.

We came to Oregon on a medical transport RV and they didnt let us bring any belongings with us.

My husband and I finally realized our dream of owning our own home in august of last year. We were budgeting and doing good, living within our means. Then I found out I was pregnant again after suffering from 3 losses. It was unexpected as we were finally at terms with only having two kids, it took us a long time to feel ok with it. Now this pregnancy has been rough, and our medical bills are already in the thousands. Our insurance isn't helping much. Also working 40 hours a week has become a memory since Xmas ended, we both work in retail and they've been cutting us left and right. So now here we are we made our house payment and the other essentials that our kids can't live without(heat and water) and we are done until payday two weeks away. We don't have enough to pay our medical bills that are due this month, or the overdue ones from January. We feel like we are sinking fast and to top it all off I have to take blood thinners for this pregnancy and that's $150-200 a month extra. We just want this little guy to make it, and we are pretty desperate right now. Please help?

i am new to this but i know that every penny helps, i am really struggling to make ends meet, i have 3 children and work part time, my husband is unemployed after the business he worked for made cutbacks so is currently looking for work, just before xmas a lady reversed her car in to mine and the insurance company has wrote it off, we managed too borrow to buy a new car while we wait for the insurance money but now the new car needs work done on it and there is no spare money,bills are mounting up, food shopping is the bare essentials .....

Due to illness I have lost my job and my home. I desperately need anything people are able to give. Any amount would be so appreciated and when I am back on my feet I will make sure that I donate to others in my situation.
Any money received will only be used for essentials like food and shelter.

Hello. I am asking for anyone who feels compelled to please donate a dollar or so to help me complete this pregnancy.
I have been doing great financially by doing babysitting to get some income since I have not been able to get a job while pregnant-even with the help of employment agencies. However, I have been put on bedrest-which means NO more income coming in. My mother is helping out the best she can, and while I appreciate it-times are getting rough. I am asking for help please in getting some of the essentials I need for the last trimester of my pregnancy.
(My son has clothes, the furniture, and everything else-I just want to make sure he comes healthy!)

I am in need of prenatals and food supplements soon. These things I normally order online (because I have to specially order my prenatals due to allergies, and food because I am on a special diet and the bars are cheaper to order in bulk online.)My Doctor has had me on food supplements because I continuously have been losing weight from morning sickness, and now my son isn't gaining weight like he should. With only 13 weeks left in the pregnancy, now is where the weight gain matters.
Anyway you would be willing to help would be greatly appreciated. If you are only willing to donate a dollar, or two, or five! Anything helps and is greatly appreciated. I just want to have a healthy son. Thank you and God Bless!

Hi all.

I'm currently a full time carer for my disabled Mother. We have always struggled to get by, but always have done some way or another.

However, we have been burgled twice in the last year. We basically have nothing left. With the cost of trying to replace the bare essentials, monthly bills and the like we struggled. Badly. We are now in so much debt that we are in real danger of losing the house, which would leave me homeless and my Mother in a care home.

Please donate whatever you can, whatever you can afford. Any help right now is better than no help.

My mother doesn't have long left to live and any donation would help me to make the most of me and my mothers time left together.

Thank you for reading my story and hopefully you can make a donation for me and my mother, no matter how big or small.

God bless

My name is kayleigh and I'm 21 years old. I'm currently pregnant with my first child that is due in novemer. The pregnancy wasnt planned but I was in a relationship and I don't agree with abortion. When I discovered I was pregnant my boyfriend said he didn't want anything to do with his child so and that I should have an abortion or have the child adopted and id ruined his life. I work full time at the minute for a insurance company but due to the stress at the minute I haven't been hitting my targets so yesterday they issued me with a written warning for not achieving my targets. This now means that I will not be entitled to the group bonus which is approx £450 which I ha depended on for buying the essentials for my baby like the cot and the pushchair. I'm finding it a real struggle at the minute because my basic wage goes on paying off bills and credit cards before I go on maternity as my money drops to half when I start maternity leave. I'm not asking for much but any help would be amazing as babies are not cheap and I just want mine to have the best start in life

Single mom of three...always worked...never had trouble finding a job...never "lived off the system" or expected handouts or charity from anyone. Just unexpectedly lost my job a week ago - and find out today they are not sending me my last paycheck!! I have no idea what to do...desperately needed that money. I have NO savings...no credit cards...no family or friends to help me out. I have not paid my rent yet this month and have ZERO money. Please. If anyone can help...5 or 10 dollars...anything at all. I promise you it is for the essentials only...groceries and gas to bring my kids to school. This is not a scam. I truly need your help. Thank you so much for hearing my plea.
