Post a Beg Now!

This is just an experiment

Posted by phantom7768 on 2012-05-16 11:58:33

I haven't suffered any type of hardship that would warrant help. This is strictly an experiment in philanthropy to see how generous people are, and how long it will take to reach a set amount. I am asking everyone who reads this to donate. The amount is up to you, but I am asking for a minimum of $1.00. The goal is to see how long it will take to reach one billion. The total will be updated daily. Donations as of 05/16/2012: $0.00

Its Just a Dollar.

Posted by Dollar on 2012-03-18 20:58:30

Hi. I am 38 years old and live in Canada. One day I watched as numerous people visited my local coffee shop. The thought occurred to me that each individual visiting this store was spending at least $1.50. The price of a medium coffee. Then I thought at least one million people across Canada are going to visit this Nationwide coffee chain. One million people times $1.50. Well that's just basic math that comes to the tune of $1.5 MILLION! This is a low ball number as this chain obviously earns more than that. If One million people put Just A Dollar each in my account, each and every one of them would get to know that they changed One person's life for the better! Its Just A Dollar. Quite possibly there is a dollar in the cushions of your couch, Under the seat of your car? Its Just A Dollar. In your pocket right now. Laying around. Its Just A Dollar. Instead of giving a coffee chain a $1.50, you can give me a buck. Heck you can give me a $1.50 if you want. You can give more than that. As much as you like. I will accept all donations. Of course the money is a driving factor in me trying this. It is also somewhat of a social experiment to see if we as Human Beings have it in us to give and know that in return they will receive a feeling of good knowing they changed someones life for the better by coming together collectively. Its Just A Dollar. Thank you so much for Being Human.

The 1 Pence Test

I am doing an experiment.
If everyone that views this beg, sends me the smallest donation that their currency allows ie 1p from UK or 1c from USA/Canada etc.
I want to see how much we can raise, and then I will donate this money to charity.
Thank You.

Please read my true story i matter too...

To whom it may concern:

My name is Angela K. Baker. I live in Green Bay, Wisconsin and have been living with diagnosis of Systemic Lupus since I was fourteen years (I am now 34 DOB 06/16/1977). Although as a child, I knew there was something a little different about myself compared to my twin brother Johnathan. I could never run and play with the other children because my body just would not keep up with the other kids. It always felt like I had sandbags attached to me and I would pass out in the sunlight, I was always exhausted and my body cried out in pain. I just didn't know why. I can remember being like this all the way back to my kindergarten year. Not that my parents were bad people, it just seemed like they just didn't have anymore to give, there problems were so on the surface, (both of my parents are alcoholics, and my mother has had Multiple Sclerosis (MS) since I was born and as for my father, he spent a large part of my life locked away in the Wisconsin jail system (due to his own alcohol induced indescretions.) At fourteen I got a full-time job to pay for my medical bills and a part-time job working at a nursing home to help my family. I have always been stuborn and a fighter, but at this point in my life the fight has just about been exstinguished out of me and I have to admit that I need some help. Over the last twenty years I have been under anasthetic approximately 125 times. I am missing more parts than I have. I feel like an experiment gone wrong or a human pin coushon. I hope that at least some of my surgical suffering at least helped the surgeons learn something from my body...You see I have lived longer than anyone that they know of with this kind of Lupus. It usually manifesters in the late 30's or 40's not in children. My most recent operation was on June 9th 2011, to fix holes in my intestines that were accidentley left after my colon was removed (my colon exploded after it had been recected four times) Right now I have an Illyectomy system that does not work correctly, it leaks blood, bile, puss, fecal liquid ect. and the plastic appliances do not work on me because my skin is so sensative from the Lupus. My medical exspenses are so astronomical even with Medicare and I struggle every month to pay my basic needs (rent, public service water copays ect) I was forced to retire at 23 my body deceided it just couldn't do it anymore, even though I worked very hard to put myself through college so that I could have a decent job that I enjoyed. Thank God that it does not take much to feed me, because the state of WI says that I do not qualify for food stamps or medical assistance, I make $4.oo a month too much. I am not asking for large donations, I know the ecomomy is bad and we are all struggling. What I am asking that when you balance your checking account that you round up to the nearest dollar and please donate the change. My goal is to collect enough money to see a special surgeon at Freodert Hospital in Milwaukee Wisconsin. He would like to see if he can help me have some kind of quality of life and end some of the suffering that I have been enduring for a long time . I would be happy if I even received a little relief. I don't remember what it is like to feel healthy, everyone in this life deserves at least a shot at it... If I am given the help that I need, I fully intend to open my home again as a safe house ( I am not able to do that now because of the leaking illeostmy ) and I would love to a foster mom to any child who needs a good loving and stable home. The way I am right now is horrible ( I have not left my home in over six months excluding doctor appointments) I do realize that some people use these sites for frivilous things and for scamming people. All that that I can do is to give my word that I promise to pay it forward. In my life I have been through an extraordinary amount of human suffering and it is a miracle that I am alive still to tell my story, and for that I am truly greatful and I am here still for a reason. It is not so bad to live without certain basic human needs, it's the having too that is very heartbreaking.

Sincerely,

Angela K. Baker

I am conducting a personal experiment. I am posting this to find out how well this process works. I am an honest father of three wonderful kids and a husband to the best wife in the world. This leaves me limited to options while saving for a decent Harley. I am asking for donations. I have been curious to see if this works for a while now and it is time for me to try and find out how many people are interested in this experiment. Please send any amount of donations to:

Help Me Spread The Word About A Project That Makes People Feel Good?

Posted by iheartyourface on 2011-02-16 04:58:52

Hello,

I was going to ask for help with my rent originally but for some reason this project seems more important to me right now!

And I realize there are many much more worthy causes on here but if you are in a very giving mood maybe you'll have room for me too...

The project is called Positive Post-its (http://fb.com/positivepostits) and as the name suggests it's basically a social/art experiment involving the spreading of joy/love/hope/positivity etc via the very humble Post-it note!

I was so bogged down last year with personal and financial issues and realized that so many people around me were facing the same negative distractions day in day out too so I decided to start leaving these cheery messages/drawings around the place. I soon noticed that it really helped lift my mood and it made some random strangers pretty happy too!

I'd love to be able to keep this project going and set up a decent online home for it with a domain and hosting and maybe even pay for some advertising but unfortunately I've been out of work for a while now and I hope to return to art college so the prospects for cash that I can put towards this are pretty dismal.

If you like the idea or need a pick me up then maybe you might like to join us on Facebook and get involved.

In terms of money, it wouldn't take much and if it wouldn't mean a sacrifice on your part I would be over the moon with any donations you might consider!

Our motto: "The best way to cheer yourself up is to cheer somebody else up." - Mark Twain.

ANY donation would cheer me up like there's no tomorrow!

I heart your face! xoxo

Thank you for taking the time to read this too! You're pretty amazing aren't you...I can tell :D

P.S. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm so so so grateful! You should definitely feel confident in the fact that you've made my day! My Paypal Account is : aoife.dwyer@gmail.com
