Money for need to move into an apartment

Posted by pdpjmjpypwmw on 2012-05-09 20:58:08

Hello to all. I am writing to request assistance with $100,000 to help me move from an undesirable so-called assisted living group home facility where my overall health is slowly deteriorating. I have no furniture or appliances of my own whatsoever. I prefer a one-bedroom one with all of the basic utilities. This money will help me to pay for moving expenses, the purchase of furniture and cover all my living expenses. I also need to pay for as an out-of-pocket expense true natural alternative holistic healing and maintaining health care, which is not covered by any current traditional government funded health care plan program. This health care is REALLY what I truly need in order for me to get on my way to stop any further health deterioration and even to start reversing what health deterioration that has already occurred.
Unfortunately, the free government health care plan that I'm now under won't help me get maximum optimal vibrant health. At the present time my only source of income is SSI of Social Security, which currently is only $698. Even at the current $698 a month figure I still can't afford to pay for any kind of phone service of my own, mainly because of the too little amount of left over personal spending allowance money that I get each month, which is now would only be $10.
If I continue to live in that undesirable group home, my overall health condition would further deteriorate to eventually where I would be rendered totally unable to do ANYTHING by myself. Whereas I wouldn't be able on my own to prevent it if I don't move out of it into a place of my own where I would have control over my life. I'm now 65 living in the U.S.A. At the present time I don't have any kind of job, for I'm partly somewhat disabled. The Phoenix, Arizona job market doesn't really look all that good right now especially for someone like me.

I am an ordinary private individual with no affiliation with any church, charitable organization, company, business or otherwise whatsoever.

please help my family

Posted by sealcub on 2012-05-06 09:58:56

I am in terrible financial distress. I am a single mom of 2 teen girls. One of my girls suffers with bi-polar disorder, depression, low self esteem, cutting, and defiance. She is in a juvenile detention facility. I suffer with clinical depression & generalized anxiety. The youngest is bullied at school. I've always sacrificed for my girls. I have a degree. I have a job. I don't make nearly enough to make ends meet with medical bills, legal bills, etc. I am behind on everything: car, electric, phone. I have asked all my family & friends for help. They are
simply unable to. I have tried to get a personal loan and have been denied. I have had no choice but to get payday loans, which I know are horrible, but it's the only option I had. My hope & wish is that there are good, kind, generous souls reading this that ARE able
and willing to help. Ideally $3000 would get me out of
this hole. Any amount is a blessing. If you find it in your
heart to help me help my girls & myself we would be so grateful. God bless you all.

homeless girl can anyone help

Posted by brittany on 2012-04-24 16:58:03

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.

Single Mom in Dire Ne ed of Assistance with a Legal Case

Posted by snglemomindires on 2012-03-12 20:58:38

Recently, I was arrested on hearsay for a DV charge. The charge was dropped because it was untrue & unjust. I was the one assaulted; the judge concurred. Unfortunately, the altercation occurred at 3am on a Friday morning, on MLK weekend, and so what should've been a 12-hour stay, turned into 5 days. In the interim, my 4-year old daughter was kidnapped by CPS, simply because we have no family there--not for any other reason.
Upon my release, I discover that my daughter's already been handed to a foster home & that a hearing had been set for that morning; no one had even bothered to TRY to contact me about it. In my haste, I rushed to the courthouse next door, oblivious of a marijuana pipe I had in my possession (it may sound cliche, but it wasn't mine; I don't even smoke). I didn't get arrested for having it, but this is where the real problem began.
To make a long story short, I pled guilty ONLY to hurry & get my daughter out of a stranger's house & agreed to have her placed with her VERY part-time father who'd only seen her on average 10 days a year since birth (his choice).
Since then, he's attempted to cut me off from her--denying calls & visits. I obtained an attorney, so thus far I've been allotted ONE day per week for 4 hours to see the child I've raised alone since birth!
Additionally, I've worked for her father for 5 years--he's snatched that from me as well. He went on to choose a facility that costs $180 per visit! So, I have no income now, no employment & I have to drive 7 hours to get there. Friends and family have run out of resources to assist me. I still owe the attorney over $1,000 & until visitation is adjusted I'll have to keep paying this ridiculous amount.
I am not your typical stereotype of this sort of matter. I'm college-educated. So are my parents. I grew up middle-class. This is so unfair to me & my child. I've seen her cry before over an injury or hurt feelings, but never before over a broken heart. I MUST make these visits. If you can and are interested in helping, please click the link below:

My life is a lifetime movie:(

Posted by DrowningSadly on 2012-02-22 00:58:46

Without telling you my whole life story and perhaps making you cry for hours, I'll highlight some of the big things that led me to this site.

I grew up with one parent. My mother, who struggled to make ends meet working as a CNA. When I was 16 I had two jobs to help with the bills my mom had.

When I was seventeen I was sexually assaulted by a supposed friend and conceived a child which I of course kept. I had my daughter only four days after graduating high school with very good grades.

Went to College for criminal justice in hopes of becoming a law enforcement officer or work at a correctional facility. Then I met a guy I fell in love with, we had a child together. He asked me to Marry him, and then 6 months after we got engaged, left me for someone ten years younger than me.

Here I sit. Single Mom, two kids. I did graduate college, and get a job in my field, however that isn't helping at all with catching up on all the bills my ex left me with and my student loan debt which is in default because I'm going paycheck to paycheck.

I don't qualify for any type of help, I wanted to file bankruptcy however an attorney is at least a thousand dollars which would take me like two years to save up for so I'm trying to file that myself to help my situation. My family is dysfunctional and I have no rich uncles or grandparents.

I dont understand why god thinks I have such strong shoulders! I can't carry this burden of life I have. It seems like there isn't a way out!! I'm facing losing my home, my paychecks that keep me going due to student loan ganishments, and I'm so stressed out I ant even think most days. How did I get here? I ask myself if I'm that bad of a person Karma has to hold me down and suffocate me?

I wish I could get any kind of help in life, even someone to tell me what to do!! I tried donating plasma but they kicked me out because my veins roll, I can't get anyone to hire me for a second job with the hours I work, and damnit my life just flipping sucks!!!!

Thanks for reading, I hope your life is better than mine is.

Poor college student, laundry stolen

Posted by nicole on 2012-01-30 14:58:12

Please help me out. I'm a college student struggling to make ends meet. I recently had most of my clothes stolen from the laundry facility at my apartment complex, and have little money to replace it. I also have car insurance payments coming up, as well as rent and food. I don't need much, just a little will help immensely.

BADLY IN NEED OF A JOB/AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY

Posted by zion87 on 2011-12-20 21:58:59

Hello,

In or about October, 2009, I gave birth to a baby, who,from birth was diagnosed with a terminally ill disease.

She resides in New York, at a faciLIty catering to chidren with special needs.

Since birth up until June 2011, I stayed with, and cared for her at the facility.

She is now 2 years old and much stronger.

Thanks be to God.

In an effort at obtaining gainful employment,I moved to Maryland, in or about, June, 2011.

However, to date, and despite my having a Bachelor's Degree, I have had no success in relation to the same.

I would very much like to go and see my baby, but to do so requires my having sufficient funds in order to pay for th bus ticket as well as to pay for accommodations. None of which, I have at the moment.

Understandably, I need a job to do so.

I'm not necessarily seeking employment in any professional capacity, but, rather,in any capacity I might be suitable for.

I am available to begin working immediately.


Respectfully
ZION87

i am a young businessman started a big multibrand mobile showroom with airconditioned. i went to andhra bank for a loan of 30 lakhs and given my house as security. The branch head said that your loan is under processing and it will sanctioned in 7 days. After seven days i went to bank and met him.

So i went home happily and the next day i placed order worth of 10 lakhs to all distributors of various brands and i issued post dated cheque on the date of 6th. The day i never forgot in my life. Morning about 11am one of the distributor called me and said there is no balance in your account. how can u give 5 lakhs cheque to us. i was surprised and told him that it was an OD account. plz chek once again. after 15 mins he called me again and told me that there is no such OD facility in my account. Immediatly i called to my bank manager and his cell was switched off. then i called to branch land line number and asked the Assistant Manager. He said that the manager was on leave upto 4 days and he dont know anything about the loan. then i took money from one financer at a huge rate of interest to pass all my cheques and it took 6 months to clear the loan by selling my house which i was supposed to put as security with the bank. I lost all my money, house, car, showroom and all. At present i am having still 25 lakhs debits and i am facing very bad and worst situation both outside and in my house. When i sold my house 70years aged my parents went to other rented house and till today i dont know where they are living right now. They are very much anger with me and not interestd to state that i am their son. I left my wife and child and living with my friend because of my wife's torture. So i kindly request you to help me with money as much as u can and i will return all the money which i got from you with in a period of one year. Kindly do the needful.

"Hello". I am "a decent person",who "literally nearly got completely destroyed",by "unscrupulous reverends and unscrupulous religious people".

Starting an Affordable Child Care Facility

Posted by AffordableChildCare on 2011-11-10 09:58:43

My wife and I are looking to start a Child care and learning center in our community, We are looking to build a facility using a Green building method called Earthbags we are needing some help getting started. We have a little over an acre of land we are going to start construction on soon that will include lots and lots of hands on learning and out door adventure as well as teach children and families to take care of animals, Cows,Chickens,kittens,puppies,horses,etc. also we would like to offer cooking and general maintenance classes for everyday people.

Part of our funding will be from donations from the community to keep fee's low, we are looking to have a small thrift store on site that people can donate clothes and other items to be sold and 100% of the profit will go back into the facility to keep prices low. and a small grocery store stocked by a team Extreme coupon moms. My wife and I have about $5000.00 saved up plus the land and we need at least another $15,000-$20,000 to build a 5000 sqf building to house the child care facility.

Part of our plan is to get the community involved in the build of our facility and in return help those who are interested in building a home for them once we get the learning center completed.

For those of you not familiar with Earthbag building do some google searches on the subject and you will be amazed at how easy and affordable a nice energy efficient home can be. Anyone who donates will be honored with their name on a dedication plaque inside the facility once it is complete.

Our goal is to keep fee's down below $50.00 per child regardless of age and in some cases free and to offer these children HANDS ON ADVENTURE, and learning.

FAMILY of 6 in desperate need

Posted by grneye568 on 2011-10-26 17:58:02

Hello to you, for reading this.
I am 43 single mom of 5, and 3 grandchildren.
I have always provided the best I can for them but have been laid-off for 3 months now.
I lost my home and moved in with my daughter, very small apartment for family of six right now. My daughter worked in a nursing facility that was recently closed down for the state not having enough funds.Basically political, I think.
So now all said and done she is out of work, with my 2 granchildren, and 1 baby in which she has temporary custody because the mom of baby did not take care of herself.We have about 1200 dollars in utility bills with shut off notices, no money for winter clothing, especially for children, no money for food (and yes we wait in lines at food pantries) but yuck. But its food. Our rent is already a month and a half late. We are very worried. I send out resumes everyday...but still wonder when I do get a job, about how I will get there, with gas, and winter coming I have real bad tires. Its really everyones nitemare that society is going thru. Not just ours. i have never asked for help like this and really dont know what to think of it but if there are people out there that truly donate to families> GOD BLESS YOU ALL

Can you help?

Posted by Fairycake9 on 2011-10-02 09:58:58

I'm not asking for needless luxury or anything in vain, I've never asked for anything in my life from anybody.... I'm in a situation where I need to leave my hometown to evade an ex partner who has made my life nothing but miserable. I left him 4 years ago after 7 years of domestic violence. I went to stay in a women's refuge facility with my 4 children and as a payback he took out 11 grand of debt in my name. I've been working ever since to try to clear those debts. I'm not asking for help to pay those debts but just enough to secure me a bond for a new home to rent and removals. This man still harasses and intimidates me and I need to move away and get the fresh start I should of got 4 years ago! Please if someone can help me then I will be forever grateful, thankyou for reading this. X
Hello. My name is Caleb. I'm 21 years old, have severe anxiety and depression, and my only income is SSI. On march 1st of this year (2011) I moved into my first apartment ever with 2 room-mates. As strange as it may sound, one of the room-mates was my own mother(Donna), the other was her abusive ex-girlfriend(Shaw). I signed as the head of household and shaw and my mom were put downa "Household members" on the lease.

Before all 3 of us had moved into this residence the 3 of us had made an agreement that all the expenses would be split into thirds, there was one exception to this agreement however. My mother was not making enough income at the time to fully cover her third, so her ex girlfriend, shaw agreed to pay my mom's third temporarily until my mom could get a job that would supply her with enough income to do so. There were no misunderstandings, all 3 of us had understood the agreement BEFORE moving in.

That first month that we moved in, I ended up splitting HALF the expenses with shaw. This means I paid for my third PLUS half of my mom's third. Shaw had done so also... This was not what had been agreed to however. In fact, I don't know why I ever even let it slip by me. I must have not been thinking straight just because I was stressed out and desperately just wanted to get into the apartment.

The next month (April) I pointed out the mistake to both shaw and my mother, and told them that while I'm willing to let the first time slip, I wasn't willing to pay more than my share again.

The reaction shaw had wasn't good. She started making threats that if I didn't continue to pay the way I did the first month, that she would just leave, and that she just didn't give a dam. Oddly enough, my mom seemed to agree with her, and said she would leave with shaw also. Because I REALLY REALLY didn't want to get into the struggle at the time.. I just went along with it and paid for half the expenses again.. Shaw had basically said to me "So whats it gonna be, Either pay half, or we leave and you deal with the apartment on your own. We don't need to stay here. We can find somewhere else"...She said it in a very rude, obnoxious, loud tone of voice.

Eventually...May came around, and on the morning of the first day of the month I immediately brought the issue up again to mom and shaw.. and again, the same threats were made...and ALSO again...I paid half the expenses out of pressure.

In the middle of may I had found out some information that I thought would have been beneficial to me. I had found out that shaw had an arrest warrant on her for assault and battery. The reason I found this beneficial, was because of the fact that I wasn't able to take neither shaw or my mom off the lease, so If I wanted to kick shaw out. I could simply make a phone call to the police and they would take her out of there...Just as a note that I should have mentioned earlier... Shaw has a huge history of drug abuse, and violence.. and she had abused my mother a lot during there time together. That was probably how the warrant resulted.

Anyways, back on topic... In the middle of the night on may 18th, I told my mother that I wanted to speak to her in private. We went out to her car, and I told my mother that I'm completely fine with her(my mom) staying, but if shaw did not do her part, and pay the extra third like she agreed to when she moved in, I was gonna have her(shaw) removed from the residence.

My mom immediately went into a panic... She rushed back into the house to tell shaw everything that I had just told her... I went back into the house also... Later that night, they packed up most of there things (They didn't have much there) and bolted off...never returning...leaving me with ALL the expenses.

Remember, I only get SSI for income. To be more specific, $704.00 per month. The rent was 730.00, let alone other bills such as electricity, gas, and my own personal bills such as my cellphone, etc. There was no way I could pay the rent.

So as time went on... all the eviction stuff happened. I got the 14 day notice to pay rent or quit, then the letter with their intention to take me to court, then the actual offical court letter with the court date on it. On the court document..only my name was listed as a tenant..as if my mother and shaw were not on the lease, even though they were. All the blame was put onto me by these selfish real estate property owners.

ONLY I was taken to court. And from there I was told that they would give me 14 days to find another place and then after that if I was not gone a sheriff would come to the residence to physically remove me and all my belongings...

I rushed to find a place to stay...it was very difficult and distressing, but fortunately one of my friends has been willing to let me stay with them...I had to pay somebody $40.00 just to help me move my stuff to a storage facility.....

As the current situation stands... I am homeless. Still trying very hard to get a place, but cannot find a place that I can afford with my income. There have been some studio apartments for around $500.00 per month, but most of them require first, second, and last months rent to move in...

This is not the first time in my life that my mom has betrayed me.. She had left me, my brother, and my dad when I was six years old too.. She was not a part of raising me for most of my life. Then I decided I want to disregard the past,and get to know her for the person she is now, and let her redeem herself. This is what she did with that opportunity.

It was stressful and agonizing to even type all this up...because there are so many details involved... and my mind is tired..I'm very stressed physically and mentally.

I really need help. My money is just being drained and leeched from me. And staying at my friend's house has been very uncomfortable. I cannot do it much longer

ANY AMOUNT that you can donate I will be HIGHLY grateful and appreciative of. Even if everybody would just donate 1 dollar! A dollar bill in huge numbers is a lot of money.

Please.. 50 cents, $1, $5 , $10, or $20....Whatever amount you want.... Just please help. Its all I ask....I'm very stressed...

Whatever you can give is appreciated...and helps me greatly...

Thank you all very much... and god bless whoever is reading this.

- Caleb S.

Posted by please_help_me on 2011-08-26 20:58:09

I am desperate, I can not think of anything else to do, which is why I am on here begging for help! I have been out of work for over a year any money that I had saved is all gone now & I could not get unemployment because I was self employed as a caregiver. The elderly couple I was caring for had to be placed in an assisted living facility which is why I am unemployed now. I need money please! I need to pay my bills! I need help please help me!
Jesus said that whatsoever you ask if you believe you will receive! He is my Savior and I believe what He said so I am asking and believing that I will receive & God will use you to help provide for me!
Thank you! May God greatly bless any who help!






PLEASE HELP - TOWNS NEW WATER RATES ARE DROWNING US

Posted by peds66 on 2011-08-25 07:58:53

In order to “live the American Dream” my husband and I moved 600 miles from our home town. We were actually doing ok, until now. My husband hasn’t seen a pay raise in the past 5 years and no raises are planned for the future. Three years ago he picked up a second job to supplement our income since we were coming up short. I also work full-time but with three children and no family nearby a second job is out of the question for me. Then the ultimate bomb hit. The town we live in decided that we needed an increase in our water rates to pay for a new treatment facility. The increase is over 300 %. No I am not exaggerating. Look at the Town of New Windsor, MD website. The proof is in black & white. We now can no longer pay our bills. Our first quarterly bill is estimated at over $600.00. I need financial help and I need it desperately. The only way out of this is to either move (and real estate is not selling) or better myself finish my nursing degree and get a better paying job. I ANY help from you would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your kind generosity.

The town we live in decided that we needed an increase in our water rates to pay for a new treatment facility. The increase is over 300 %. No I am not exaggerating. Look at the Town of New Windsor, MD website. The proof is in black & white. We now can no longer pay our bills. Our first quarterly bill is estimated at over $600.00. I need financial help and I need it desperately. The only way out of this is to either move (and real estate is not selling) or better myself finish my nursing degree and get a better paying job. I ANY help from you would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your kind generosity.

Sexual Abuse Victim

Posted by stanfordgirl2013 on 2011-08-12 17:58:19

I am currently a student at one of the top universities in the world. However, I have not been able to focus entirely on my education due to an on going court case against my father, who was sexually/physically abusive during my high school years. He was caught on tape, so the court case is still in progress. However, PTSD/Anxiety/Depression and substance abuse has taken its toll on me. I spent a my freshman year of college in a mental health facility. Now, I'm entering into my junior year with over one year of sobriety under my belt. I attend an Ivy League school on a full scholarship; however, medical and living expenses are overwhelming as an independent student. I'd appreciate any and all donations. Thank you, and God bless.

Sincerely,
Bree
first want to thank you for taking your time reading this. I am not going to fully paste a long sob story, but this is a story of a broken father trying to get his son home where he knows he is going to be loved, safe and to be raised happy.

My oldest son Keegan who was born to me on Christmas has been out of my home for over 3 years. My son is 10 years old and right now is living at a Residential Treatment Center; this facility was provided to him by the State of Texas Department of Family Services. The Department of Family Services was sought by my ex-wife over 3 years ago for help assistance while I was working to support my family living. This is not going to be a story where I am going to bash my ex-wife, at that point of life she was not a good mother, she could not handle the responsibilities and our son Keegan was on medications or medical conditions given to us ADHD, Hyper-Aggressive Disorder, and possible Bi-Polar.

Keegan was not acceptance to large change. We had to move from a city and a house where my son felt settled, back to our home city of Amarillo. This condition did not set well with my son, but as long as Daddy was with him he felt safe. Then Daddy had to be gone from Monday through Friday (except Friday Night) for work, and then when I was home I would spend time with my kids. Keegan was settled with this, but on the second week gone his medications ran out and the MHMR would not see him for three weeks, his past Pedi-physiologist would not refill medications unless they saw him which started him on a process where his mother felt she could not attend to his needs. Situations always arose and my ex-wife sought help from the Pavilion while I was away. After one month of this my ex-wife who was listening to “her” friends kept telling her to seek help with Family Services. Then an incident happened at home, my ex-wife and her friends left the house to look at business property (for what reason I still do not know), but left a thirteen year old who was not mental capable himself to watch Keegan, his sister Shaylah, and her friends youngest son. The situation happened when my son Keegan and Shaylah got into an egg fight with the thirteen year old and his youngest brother. The youngest brother got upset because he was losing and picked up a stick and STABBED Keegan in the back and punctured him. Keegan got upset and picked up his Fatboy skateboard and knocked him across the forehead knocking him out in one hit. This information was provided to me by my ex-wife and her friends. That is when my ex-wife called the Sherriff f department on Keegan because of the situation; she allowed her friends threaten to beat him to death and scared him so bad he defecated himself. He did not feel safe and the only person who would make him feel safe was over 3 hours away.

Since Keegan was under the age of 10 years old they could not take him, so again my ex-wife called Family services and with the discussion of everything and the fact he had been in the pavilion prior the accepted to take him for help and placed him in a temporary children’s facility.

I did not even to get to see my son before they took him, I had to go to the Randall County Courthouse where I was explained by the legal team and Family Services if I did not accept this treatment for my son I would be held liable for the charges and I could charged for his actions. I knew my son needed help, but not this help. I was assured he would get proper treatment and care for, and he should be home soon. A year later I was told the state now has permeate custody of my son, but I still have a stature of rights as a parent and I am not banned to see my son.

There is more to that story, but again I am not dragging other events, but after three years he is in a facility that tends to switch out employees weekly, they are not participating in family counseling, at this point of my letter I have not talked to my son in over 2 months, and have not received any of his letters he writes. Visitation has been promised to me once every other month to bring him home for a day visit, but that has not happened 9 months. The State of Texas has made a statement they are not responsible to bring my son home for visitation because they do not have the money for this, and it is my responsibility to make the visitation visits 3 hours from me. I was promised weekly phone calls, but again that is not happening, and when I call the facility nobody seems to be there to assist with the issue. Texas Department of Family Services is over stocked on cases and I tend to get a voicemail over a real phone conversation, and when I email I may get a response. I was explained I am supposed to have family counseling sessions with Keegan because the facility is breaking that bond with my son and his family and for the past 3 months that has not happened. I have been told by the State because of my financial conditions even if he was ready to come home they would not let him.

This is my plea for help, my son needs help, I need help and I need to do something about my situation. I am a hard worker, I take care of my two other kids and do not receive any support from my children mother. I make enough to stay afloat, I have a best friend (as close as a brother) help me trade my old Chevy Pickup for an automobile that will get me around in the city but do not go hard on it. Overall I am just an average hard working low class worker trying to get back what is his.
Lost my home last month because I could no longer pay rent. Moved in with a friend where I now dwell on the sofa. For that, I am immensely grateful to the Universe!

However, what remains of my worldly goods is in a commercial storage facility. I was able to pay for May but now owe for June and (this FRIDAY, 7/1) July. No pay, a lien will be placed.

Can you help in any way, right away? Any amount is welcomed. Once I'm back in business, bringing in money again, I shall repay your kindness forward to St. Jude's Medical Centre in Memphis, TN.

Thank you!

Husband lost job 5 kids to take care of

Posted by tnwnatalie on 2011-04-29 04:58:03

My Husband was offered a job 3 hours from our family and he accepted the job. We moved and he had the job for three months and then someone stole his company truck right out of our driveway! He had all his personal tools inside along with a company laptop that was taken. The company fired him for the laptop being in the truck when it was stolen. The truck was recovered but not the stuff. We live in an area where the cops circle through all the time. Now we are away from family and friends with no job. We are renting a house that we are under a lease for $1000 a month and we can't move somewhere that cost less. Trying to get Unemployment but waiting on approval and rent is due Sunday. We are looking and trying to get him another job. My husband was in the process of fixing our van and the belt is currently off with the tools to fix it in his work truck that was stolen. We were taking care of his mother who has C.O.P.D and lots of other Health problems. A few days before the truck was stolen we had to take her to a Mental health facility. Please Help we have 5 young children whose lives are falling apart.

Help for rape victim and anorexic

Posted by ktduberg on 2011-03-17 21:58:08

Please help, my name is Kate and a few months ago I was raped. Since then, I have developed severe anorexia. I was forced to temporarily withdraw from school, since the illness has made me so weak that I can't even get out of bed some days without passing out. I am extremely driven and intelligent, and my dream is to become a doctor, a goal I KNOW I can achieve with your help. A few days ago I went to the ER, and the MD told me that if I do not go to an inpatient facility, I am going to die. My insurance will only cover part. Please, please, please, help me get help for my illness so that I can go on to achieve my dreams. God bless you.
