Facing Tags

I recently lost my job to someone in the companies family, I am scared to lose my apartment too because I need the living until I finish school to land a better job. I used my remaining money from work, and financial aid to pay as much rent as I could without facing eviction and tuition debt. Now I have no job, car, or money to afford food until next month. I'm scared because school is important to me and I went through every other route so far...

Please help if you are generous and giving, if you do, its only for food, thank you and god bless you!

Hi,

4 years ago I lost my job because of recession and I'm jobless till date :-(

I'm married and have 2 children. After losing my job I spent 2 years with the help of my savings and after that I borrowed loan from bank. But for last 15 months I'm facing very very critical situation. Now its very hard to survive. I have to pay school fees for my children, wife's medical expenditure, pay back bank's loan and start a small business to earn. For all these I need $16000.

So its my humble request to all kind hearted human to help me to end my problems.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

Thanks.

I am a pregnant mother to 6 wonderful children, my husband works in Tampa,and we live in Polk county which is a 2 hour drive. We do not have a car, so he has to stay in Tampa for the whole week. He only gets to spend time with his family for 2 days out of the week. There are many times that he can not get back out to Tampa to work because of our finances. We are trying to relocate back to Tampa so we can all be together again, and so he can work everyday, but do not have the money to afford the move. I do receive food stamps, and have tried to explore other options for help, but have ran out ideas. I am not on here trying to get any "extra" money. I am completely broke, I couldn't even pay our electric bill. If there is anyone that could help it would be a blessing, any little thing would help us right now. Again we are not looking to get ahead, or to pay off credit cards. We are honestly facing homelessness, which means me losing my children. Please if you can help us.. Thank you!

I am a single mother of two kids who is facing being evicted. I need help in paying the back rent only so that I can be on track in paying the rent going forward.

Since today is Mother’s Day, I wanted to share my journey thus far and what it’s meant to be a mother for me. My story is unique in that I’ve overcome various obstacles to gain what some may call normalcy. Now I’m facing a struggle in which I’m hoping to tap into the kindness of the internet in order to help me through this hurdle.

I was raised by a single parent and grew up in a town where most families were on some sort of government assistance and could barely make ends meet. I was always taught to value what I had and that hard work will always bear its fruits. My high school was filled with kids who didn’t care about getting an education. I was a introverted “nerd” who took Honors and AP classes and saw education as a way to get out of a town that didn’t have much opportunity for growth. While I valued my education, I was also bored to death, even in my “accelerated classes,” so I stupidly acted out and started to party as high school kids do. I ditched class to drink and dabbled a bit in drugs because there was nothing else to do. Even as I partied, I still managed to remain on the honor roll for all 4 years. Fast forward to the beginning of my senior year, our class had 250 kids and throughout the year approximately half of the student body dropped out at one point or another, giving up on their 14 year investment in their education. I made it to the end, but while everyone was excitedly responding to college acceptance letters, I had to throw all of mine out. Why? I was pregnant. I fully accept responsibility for my actions, but sex was not talked about in my household. I had no idea I had access to birth control or condoms and foolishly made a mistake that would change my life. I went to my prom and graduation 3 months pregnant without anyone knowing aside from my family.

The summer after graduation was spent brainstorming options and finding a job to help support my unborn child. I decided to keep the baby, thinking I would give it up for adoption. I was too immature to take care of myself, and now a baby? No way. As the months progressed, I fell in love with the baby and decided to keep her and raise her with the help of my family. I was excited but deep inside I was depressed. I really wanted to go off to college and live the life of a student living on campus, making new friends, staying up late to cram for midterms and possibly travel a bit. I couldn’t do that anymore and the thought of experiencing college in any other way didn’t entice me. I also knew if I didn’t get an education, I’d be stuck in a cycle of dead end jobs all my life. I knew I didn’t want to struggle like I’ve seen my family fight just to put a decent meal on the table and keep the lights from getting shut down.

I started college two months after my daughter was born. She was perfection and an incredible motivator. I’ve always thought that she deserves something better, beyond what I can give her but I decided to try my best to give her an amazing life. Since I just had a baby, I wanted to explore the opportunities I had outside of a traditional classroom in college. Luckily, the local community college offered online courses which only required me to be in class on the first day, at midterms and during finals week. I did this for a year and a half until I took every online course possible. Then it was time for full immersion into college. Here came daycare and having to balance college life with working and a small child.

My average day in college looked like this: we’d have to wake up at the crack of dawn so my daughter and I could ride a 45-minute bus to school. Unlike most of my classmates, I had to dash straight from work to class or go to work right after class so that I could pick up my daughter from school at a proper hour. I was very fortunate to land a job in a small office as an office assistant during college that would later prove invaluable. The pay was ok, but I was allowed to tailor my schedule to be compatible with my changing class load every semester. After our day was done came another bus ride. Once we got home, I’d have to make dinner, pack us lunch for the next day, prepare her backpack with extra clothes plus wash and prepare a day’s worth of bottles for my daughter. After I put my daughter to bed was the only time I had for homework. I’d stay up until about 2am every night doing my reading assignments or writing papers only to have to get up 3 ½ hours later to start my day again.

I did this every day for 5 ½ years.

Was it worth it? Heck yeah. I got my bachelor’s degree on my wall as proof. I am the first person in my family to ever get a degree. I have multiple relatives my age who ended up dropping out for various reasons yet I managed to graduate (with honors!) while juggling a small child and a demanding job. Aside from raising my daughter, this is what I’m most proud of thus far. I read online that less than 2% of teen moms attain a college degree before age 30. I’m stoked beyond words to be a part of that 2% (Source) I hope that this struggle and success will set an example to my daughter and show her that hard work does pay off.

After college, I worked a few jobs that I wasn’t too keen on. Too corporate, too stuffy, too bureaucratic to evoke any change and make an impact. I wanted to wake up every morning and feel inspired to go to work. I didn’t just want a paycheck, I wanted to engulf myself within organization so that I could kick ass and take names. I also wanted a 401(k), health benefits and life insurance so that my bases could be covered in old age. But mainly I wanted to wake up invigorated every morning and be able to pay my bills. After college, my daughter and I moved into our first home. I loved waking her up in her room filled with the girliest of things. I was a proud mama–on my own, college educated and living life as an independent woman.

Independent but unfulfilled. That is, until I was introduced to the CEO of my most recent employer. We hit it off immediately and within two week was offered the chance of a lifetime. I was invited to join his multimillion dollar company and close-knit team as his right hand. I’d learn all the in’s and out’s of running a business in a dynamic industry and receive a nice salary. After a bit of contemplation, I decided to resign from my stuffy job to join a company I was proud to be apart of. My job was great. It was flexible, nurturing, educational and insightful. In a few short weeks, I was in the trenches with my boss handling everything from sales to contracts to finance to HR. That is, until the company suddenly went out of business. I won’t get into the details but I was told I’d have a month before we were all let go. This was the job I wanted to settle in and dedicate years to, not just a job really but a mission to which I was dedicated.

I was laid off in March with no severance pay as the company had nothing. I had a small savings which I tapped into as I began searching for a job. I had to file for unemployment for the first time, which was hard as I’ve prided myself on not having to use government resources to pay my bills. I have almost a decade of solid work history and yet I’m struggling to find a job. Places are hiring but they’re scarce and don’t always offer pay that can support a family.

My bills are piling up and I have family and friends that are in no position to help me out. Unemployment can only pay so much and it isn’t enough to put a home-cooked meal on the table or keep everything paid. I’m in the process of starting up two businesses–one that peddles vintage finds and another that provides folks with stellar resumes to land their dream job so that I can increase my cash flow, but in the meantime, I’m asking for any donations to my cause. I’m willing to offer any services in return for a donation over $30 via paypal. There’s a button below where your transaction will be processed safely and gratefully!

Two years ago my husband lost his job. We live in Michigan so finding another job was difficult to say the least. In between loosing his job & finding another we spent every penny we had saved trying to keep up with our mortgage & other bills. Once we got behind, it became impossible to catch up so now we are facing foreclosure. We called our mortgage company & they said that if we can pay them $35,000 by June 15th we will be paid in full & own our home outright! We owe them $110,000 but they are willing to forgive that & accept $35,000!!! If we cant come up with that amount they will foreclose & we will be homeless. We have gone to family members but sadly no one will help us. This is everything to me, I have been so depressed & afraid. What will my children think of me? Please help us, any little bit will help. Thank you & God Bless you!

I am a 33 year old single mom who is caring for her younger brother and a toddler. I also have two preteen daughters who are disabled. The child support that was due to come in this month was not received by the CSD office. So I am left to asking for help. My family dose not qualify for state services and my kid brother has (ESKD) for those who do not know what that is End stage Kidney Disease. He just got a letter that states he is terminal. At 29 years old he should not have been diagnosed with Polly-cystic kidney disease with renal failure along with ESKD. We are applying for SSI for him but have to wait for the state to decide if he qualify for assistance in the mean time we are facing loosing our home, and ending up on the streets. With my brother that is a death sentence and I would not be allowed to see my girls. They have lost one parent due to death and I hope to keep having them over so they can see their baby brother and myself. We are asking for help with Rent and Power only (Both are late). I am still looking for work and have no way for employers to contact me but by email. I try but have not had any luck.If you can help with anything that would greatly be appreciated. Thank you and GOD Bless you! Thank you for taking the time to read this. For any proof needed please email me and I will provide the documentation that is needed.

I am a 33 year old single mom who is caring for her younger brother and a toddler. I also have two preteen daughters who are disabled. The child support that was due to come in this month was not received by the CSD office. So I am left to asking for help. My family dose not qualify for state services and my kid brother has (ESKD) for those who do not know what that is End stage Kidney Disease. He just got a letter that states he is terminal. At 29 years old he should not have been diagnosed with Polly-cystic kidney disease with renal failure along with ESKD. We are applying for SSI for him but have to wait for the state to decide if he qualify for assistance in the mean time we are facing loosing our home, and ending up on the streets. With my brother that is a death sentence and I would not be allowed to see my girls.

I am in desperate need of help at the moment. I have an eviction coming up and if I don't come up with $793 by next week, I'll be forced to move out with my 4 year old son and live in a homeless shelter for women and their children. I have no family up here. All my family is down south and their facing problems as well. All I have is my car and if I don't come up with the money, I'll be forced to either live in my car or in the shelter from time to time. My unemployment is currently in the works. I'll be receiving 150 every week, but that isn't enough to have the full amount of 700 by next week. Time is running out. A little help would be greatly appreciated. We've tried the Salvation Army and they just told us that they wont have anymore money until next month (June). I've also been to churches, but to no avail :-( Please find it in your heart to help us out. This is my last resort. Thank you for your consideration and time.

I am a single mother of four. I have been diagnosed with Ptsd and depression. My kids dad is on felony status with childsupport, yet they do nothing. I have been trying to look for work but I have walked everywhere around me. I am facing eviction because I owe 1500 for rent. I have no way to pay it and no help from anyone and no where to go. I also need 80 dollars for car insurance and 60 dollars for my car tag. I would really appreciate any help. Thank you and God Bless.

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 never thought I'd need to ask for help in my life but here it goes. I lost my job to my illness and I'm now struggling to pay my monthly mortgage of £900. I can no longer work so have to live off social security benefits.. I have a fiancée and an 8 year old daughter who depend on me and I feel like such a let down to them. I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me as I am facing losing my home and my life will be ruined. If you can, please help me, and my family. Thank you very much
