TRYING TO MEET AND GREET MY FAMILY OUT IN FL.

Posted by RustySt on 2012-05-22 15:58:37

I WOULD LOVE TO GET TO FL. BY DRIVING BECAUSE I HAVE MY DOG'S WHICH ARE LIKE MY KIDS THAT MUST GO WITH ME.
ANYWAY ABOUT 4MO.'S AGO I HAD THE CHANCE TO MEET FAMILY ON MY FATHER'S SIDE THAT LIVE IN FT. PIRCE FL. THAT I NEVER KNEW THAT I HAD, AND MY 2 GIRLS THAT HAVEN'T TALKED TO ME FOR ABOUT 15YR.'S .
NOW SOME WHERE AROUND 30YR.'S AGO MY FIRST WIFE AND I SPLIT UP, AND I DIDN'T GET TO SEE THEM FOR THE LONGEST.
SO WHILE THAT WAS GOING ON I DIDN'T THINK I WOULD EVER SEE THEM AGAIN , AND I MADE A REALLY BAD CHOSE, AND THAT WAS DOING DRUGS , THEFT SCAMS ,AND ROBING PEOPLE.
WELL I WAS VERY FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO GET OUT OF THAT LIFE BEFOR I GOT COUGHT BY THE LAW(keywords by the law)NOW THAT YOU KNOW THIS YOU MIGHT WANT TO HELP , AND THAT IS OK TO BUT I DO WANT TO HELP ANY AND ALL BY TELLING YOU THAT ANY TIME SOMEONE ASK YOU TO OPEN A BANK ACCOUNT SOTHEY CAN HELP YOU DERICT , " DO NOT DO IT" BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST TRYING TO SET UP SOME KIND OF SCAM .
AS YOU SEE THERE IS A PAYPAL BUTTON RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM , SO DON'T GET COUGHT UP IN A RUSH AND GET COUGHT IN THE SCAM.
NOW THAT YOU KNOW, DON'T GET COUGHT UP IN IT.
WHEN I CHANGED MY LIFE I WENT WHERE I KNEW I COULD FIND THE RIGHT KIND OF HELP, AND THAT WAS CALVERY CHAPEL COASTA MASE CALF. WHERE PASTOR CHUCK SMITH SHOWED ME HOW. 1ST. I QUITE THE DRUGS AND STEALING FROM PEOPLE, THEN I LEARNED HOW TO SERVIE OTHERS WITH WHAT I CAN DO EVEN THOUGH I DON'T HAVE MONEY.
SO NOW THAT YOU KNOW THIS MAYBE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND. I CAN NOT BE SCAMED IN TO OPENING BANK ACCOUNTS SO SOMEONE CAN TRY AND RIP ME OFF.
NOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP ME PLEASE TRY AND UNDERSTAND I REALLY DO WANT AND NEED THE HELP, AND I AM WILLING TO GIVE TO YOU PROOF ON WHAT THE MONEY IS SPENT ON ,HOW MEANY ARE WILLING TO DO THAT.
WHAT I NEED IS A BETTER CAR AND THE GAS TOGO OUT TO FL. THE COST OF THE CAR IS ABOUT $10,000.oo, THEN I WOULD NEED GAS CARD FOR GAS OUT TO FL. AND BACK HOME.
NOW I DON'T EXPECT JUST ONE PERSON TO GIVE ME THAT MUCH , BUT AS YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY PENNY'S MAKE DOLLARS, AND IF YOU STILL WOULD LIKE HELP SOMEONE THAT IS WILLING TO GIVE PROOF!!!! THEN PLEASE FILL FREE TO TRY ME, AND I AM WILLING TO SHOW YOU THE PERSON THAT I SAY I AM.

Groceries/ gas card

Posted by lostmyjoy on 2012-04-30 19:58:22

Hello
I have never asked for help before. I have worked all my life and am still working a full time job and looking for a second job. I got divorced last year and pretty much walked away from the home we owned together ( it was worth it) I now live in a small apt that is my sanctuary. I have to commute around 50 miles each way to work and buying gas and groceries in the same week is not possible. My story isn't any different than anyone elses. I don't have a sad sob story, I am just a regular person who is asking for a hand up not a hand out.Any spare money I have left after paying bills (not much and most times nothing) is going towards a plane ticket or gas money from Boston to Ft Jackson so I can watch my son graduate from boot camp in August)
I woud be willing to repay when I can and am more than willing to pay it forward. PLEASE no scams. Life is hard enough without them
Thank you for reading this.

please help!!!!

Out of Hope

Posted by Koolnora on 2012-02-01 01:58:08

We are a hard working family stuck in bind. I went back to school almost two years ago to improve my chances of getting a self-sustaining job. I hope to find something amazing after graduation 6wks! My husband isn't getting steady semi repair work. We advertise super competitive rates but no calls. My house payment is $650.00 (2 months). I am trying to sell everything possible. I just want to keep my home. We spent 15 years saving for a 1100 sq ft. It is all we have now. I don't want my children in a shelter. I have been working temp service jobs. I get behind because 2/5 of my kids are developmentally delayed. My 4 year old son is autistic and my 12 yr old deals with ADHD/RAD/OCD/ODD. I teach them all week between their therapy then my university and temp work. I hate to ask but I'm out of options.

God Bless & Good Health

982.07 to go back to school

Posted by mama_meya on 2011-12-20 09:58:21

My name is Meya Acuna and I am writing you in hopes that you can (or lead me to someone who can help) help bring a Christmas miracle to pass! I am really putting my faith out here because this is something that I've never done before, but am in desperate need. I am a 30 yr old stay-at-home mother to a 4 yr old and 22 month old and am 5 months pregnant. Having turned 30 I have had a revelation that I am in need of continuing my education to not only help my family financially but to be an inspiration to my children who will one day wonder why I did not live my dreams and get a degree in education.

Over 10 yrs ago I began on the right track attending TCU for a semester but with no funds saved up for college it was soon apparent that I would not be able to finish. Much to my despair, I left Ft. Worth and began living out of my hurt by getting into drugs, lascivious living and just keeping bad company. It wasn't until I met my husband, a PK (or preacher's kid), that I realized what I was missing and that I did have hope and didn't have to carry around the shame and anger at not being able to finish school. I stayed home and worked while he got to go out and travel the world in a Christian band, living his dream while I helped to support us and when he got off the road we decided to begin a family. Well no one told us how hard that would be especially financially and I soon left work to take care of my children because the cost of daycare was too much for us (almost 1200 for the two of them!). My husband lost his job earlier this year due to a bad truck accident that left him needing two surgeries and us on public assistance. But we moved to Seguin and he was able to start work at TPS thank God. It doesnt pay all our bills but we are so thankful! We also moved back here to begin work on a ministry with a focus on our youth. We are big volunteers at our church, always making ourselves available to what needs to be done for not only our families but our community. Most recently we've assisted with our youth at the Daddy/Daughter Dance sponsered by the SPD and the Blue Santa wrapping days. It has been hard on just one income and in the past 2 years we have moved 5 times with our children finally settling in Seguin. I am from Austin and had never lived in a real community of people before. I love it here! Everyone speaks to everyone and it is not so rushed. I'm in awe of how a community is supposed to be! Parades, Holiday Strolls, wow!

This past two weeks we have done things we have never had to do before like seek help from Community Council and Salvation Army for utility assistance and visit the EATS food pantry. I'm thankful they were there but I just never thought in a million years I'd be needing those types of services. This is also what pushed me to go back to school. I need to do something bigger than me to feel that I've accomplished a legacy for my children. I won't let them suffer worry and fear the way we have recently. But I need help.

I'm pleading with you to please help me pay $982.07 to Texas Christian University before January 1st for a Loan that I owe. If I pay this loan off by then I will be free to attend a university with Federal funds to attend classes and began pursuing my Associates Degree in Early Childhood and ultimately a Bachelors in Education. I plan on getting a teaching certification and giving back to the community that helped me by working in a low-income school here and sharing my story through hard work that people helping people can make a difference in someone's life. Again, I'm not asking you for money for me or my family or Christmas presents or any "thing". I am looking to pay directly to TCU in Ft. Worth. None of the funds would go to me. I trust that what we need as a family my God will supply, because He has kept us this long and it's only going to get better. Please be a part of this transition out of a dry place into abundance. I'm humbling myself today by doing this and I trust that if you can or know someone who can, you will help me. Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to sharing a good report!

I do believe in the angels above...please find us!

Posted by angelsabove on 2011-11-14 11:58:26

I am a 42 getting ready to be 43 year old mother of three. I have worked for 9 years 50-60 hours a week since my divorce to support my children. Life was great for my children until the divorce but I refused to have my children be exposed to a life style of drugs and parting once our business was doing well and he stopped coming home and getting in trouble with the law. They went from a happy home of 2500sq ft to a 900sq ft home and paycheck to paycheck for me just to keep the lights on. I made 22 dollars to much to qualify for assistance from the state and have just been told that I much have a surgery in the end of Nov that has put me out of work and I may never be able to walk again never mind work. Back surgery is serious and I have a tumor that has grown around my nerves and attached to my spine. Needless to say I could use some help. I don't want my children to be placed in different family members homes apart from eachother. My father passed when I was 22 and we can't all go stay with my mother in a one bedroom apartment. I am devistated and sometimes hope that I just go peacefully in my sleep in fear of letting my babies down. Their father has moved on and has 2 other children with a person he met in rehab so mine have put on the back burner with refusal to pay court ordered child support. I do have a court date but it has taken me 6 months to get and not sure if I will even be able to attend that date in Jan. I do not have a bank account, hard to do with no money and with the holidays coming I am hoping to have a place to live. At this point even 20 dollars would get my car inspected that I have been driving for 5 month expired hoping not to get stopped.All my children are honor roll students and good kids. It is not their fault I just don't know what I can do right now to stay afloat. If you can help please email me at decemberbbaby@yahoo.com. Thank you and Happy Holidays!All prayers welcome!

I Need Help!

Posted by womanindistress on 2011-11-06 03:58:32

Please if anyone can help me...I need money to pay my landlord today the rent for my apt. I do not have any place to live, no place to stay if I have to move out. I live alone and have no family or friends here who can help me. I rent a very very small apt (under 200 sq ft)and live very modestly (I do not have a car, tv, furniture etc.)I am hoping and believing in the kindness and goodness of strangers. Hopefully, in the future I can help others!

Family seeking new start in life needs some help

Posted by royhorner on 2011-10-04 11:58:59

In an attempt to start anew,my wife and I and our four children recently moved from Pennsyslvania back to our hometown of Louisville, KY, where the cost of living is much more affordable.
To forestall the spectre of foreclosure, we did a short sale on our PA house, and are now renting in Louisville.
Since arriving here in July, I have been unemployed (with the exception of an 11-day temporary job). We have fallen behind in our rent and bills to the amount of $3,000 to $5,000, and we need something within that amount to regain our footing. I start a new FT job today, Oct. 4, that offers +40 hours a week with opportunities for OT and, I hope, advancement. My wife and kids are also passionately seeking employment (one of my sons recently started a new job).
All was going well until 2005 when I lost the career/professional position I had that included a decent salary and healthcare for my entire family. In the past six years I have been underemployed with damaging stints of underemployment. Two times I've been laid off. I've washed dishes in a restaurant, mopped floors in a nursing home and worked for a mammoth retailer, all in an effort to provide for my family and seek open windows of opportunity. In one job I even worked five consecutive 15-hour shifts. I have more than 120 resumes pending for various government and private sector jobs.
I'm a veteran of the U.S. Navy, a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the father of three Boy Scouts, including one who is an Eagle Scout.
I could also provide references.
Any aid in any amount would be beneficial and greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your consideration. God bless you.

Help- Out of work for 4 years- at 62 hard to find any work

Posted by dschabrm on 2011-09-08 21:58:08

I am 62 years old. An auditor by trade but would do any kind of PT/FT work except there seems to be no work. Ads read if unemployed do not apply. What! Are you kidding me? Used up retirement by year 2 in 2009. Lost our home, cars, money, credit, credit rating, self esteem but I still have God in my life. The fire of hope is still burning but I must admit it is more like smoldering coals. My wife has polysistic kidney disease & there is no cure. I hate asking for help because I know there are thousands just like me and some worse off than me but here goes, if you can assist please help. There is no help for those like me from the government other than a little medical help. I have retired on SS and now I earn too much for any help. Go figure. I am not looking for money, although I would take any help, I am looking for WORK. The government has no idea how many people are really unemployed or under-employed.

Ready to work asap

Posted by LNJ501 on 2011-07-26 11:58:52

I am really in need of a job, Im 22 years old and have been independent for sometime, i lost my FT job in May after being there for 3 yrs. I am really not used to not being stable, I have bills, rent due and no kind of income right now. I'm scared. I've been applying to so many jobs a day and with little response. My email is muddyplanet@aim.com for those who may have any job leads. Thanx

Need help with one thing please!

Posted by needhelpplease29 on 2011-06-27 16:58:57

As like everyone else on this site, The past 2 years have not been so kind to me. My story is this as short as i can make it; two years ago I lost my job of 6 years, in these past two years I have looked for a job non stop, ( I have never been without work since I was 15) but living in Michigan or heck just living anywhere right now is beyond tough! I recently got divorced and had to move in with family, on a good note I got my GED and am now attending college. What I need help with is paying for my vehicle loan and insurance... So I can continue to go to school and get a job after college and to also see my two young boys as well. The really sad thing is, the vehicle is almost paid off - im on my last year of payments... its like being 20 ft from the finish line of something but just cant reach. Anyway, any help would be VERY much appreciated!! whether its .5 cents or whatever, I can give you my email, paypal info or whatever you would like. The only thing i can offer in return at this point is a big thank you and a picture if you want of my family -seeing who you helped (if you would want). I am a big believer in karma and paying it forward,when I get back on my feet I will be definitely be helping others. Thanks for taking the time to read this and god bless!

Please help save my leg

Posted by helpjeffsleg326 on 2011-06-20 08:58:23

Hi,

My name is Jeff. I am 41 and currently living in Nashville, TN. I made this page in extreme desperation asking for financial help with my right leg. There is a picture of the ulcer on my right ankle, which is also painfully swollen, as well as pictures of the varicose veins on my blog. I never ask for anyone’s help, ever, but I am now humbled to ask for your help, it’s probably my last bit of hope.

I have varicose veins very badly in my right leg, and its been a 25 year-old problem which has been getting slowly worse over time. I also got a venous stasis ulcer on my right ankle last year from the vein problems. This was a nightmare for me as it took almost a year to heal over leaving a very bad scar.

I need to have Endovenous Laser Treatment (ELT) surgery on my leg very soon or I will probably lose my leg I’m told. I also need to have cosmetic surgery for the horrible scar on my ankle.

I need $7,500 for ELT surgery very soon and I do not have medical insurance. The cost of cosmetic surgery varies but it is estimated to be $5,000 to $10,000. The grand total I am trying to raise is $20,000 to be certain I have enough money to recover from all this and as I may miss some time from work.

I do work FT right now but I simply cannot afford health coverage, I am living by the skin of my teeth currently just barely making rent. Also the state of TN will not let me have TennCare, I’ve tried many times and got told even some people with cancer cannot get TennCare – just crazy.

So I am asking you today if you could find it in your heart to donate even a few dollars (or a significant amount) to my cause I would be so very grateful to you!

If you can help me please donate with PayPal at my blog: http://helpjeffsleg.wordpress.com

I will be updating my blog regularly about my progress towards my goal.

Thank you for visiting and may God bless you!

Jeff Gillispie

Needing help

Posted by Susan1963 on 2011-04-11 13:58:35

Me and my fiance are at wits end on how we are going to make it. We want so desperately to get back to where he was born and raised in Ellenville N.Y. and we are stuck here in Kentucky. We moved from about 100 miles away so I could care for my father and he passed away be 2 years in Sept. We have lost our water AGAIN they cut it off last week and my fiance can't find any work here ,, he does construction and its not happening here. We have no car and he walks everywhere to look for any type of work just to get by and he has been ripped off by this whole town as he never charges what the big wigs do to fix a home.. We go out of our way to help others even when we have nothing and Im so scared we are going to loose our apartment(which is an old funeral home and we are the only ones here)We have been scrapping metal and junk the last week just to feed ourselves and get by. I just want to get to where he use to live so we can get back on our feet and make it on our own. I hate asking anyone for help but I am at the point of giving up on everything as its just not working out. We try so hard to get ahead and we get slapped back 20 feet and cant get back up. right now we are going to loose our Electric come Monday morning if we cant come up with the other 147.67.. I worked with a neighbor other day helping her plant her flower beds and cleaned her home and my fiance went and done an odd job plus walked gathering aluminum cans to turn in and we was able to give them 120.00 of it but they only gave us till Monday for the rest of it. Not to mention not having food but got up this morning and someone left a box of food on our step that will get us by for a few days and am so greatful ..I have been to every place in this town to get help and no one is willing to do anything. I do not know what this world is coming to when no one will extend a hand . and right now if someone came to me and needed something I did have I would give it up as I feel there are others who need it more then I do.. I just keep praying for a Miracle and It never happens no matter how hard we try.I do not understand why there are people in this town that goes out and cons people and charges an outrageous price to do things and they are running around with their heads in a cloud and having everything when we try and try and we just get farther behind. I know It sounds like I'm complaining but I just want to live normal without so may worries and to get out of this town that keeps dragging us farther down in the homeless pit..is there any help to be found.We want to save enough to make the move as he has work waiting for him there and its over a 1000 miles away to get there plus have to have enough to at least get us a cheap effenciency for a week or so till the money starts to happen as I do not care if I have to live in a homeless shelter to get on our feet when we get there.. It's just managing the money to make it there..I will not give up hope and faith as I pray to God everyday to at least bless us to be able to make it through 1 more day. I have family here but well like alot of families they have just turned their backs and won't do anything to help but I was there to help them when they needed a sitter or someone to do things they couldnt or my fiance redone their places for basically nothing in return as that is how we are.. to make a long story short almost 4 yrs ago me and my fiance built a deck on the front of my parents home and it was for my dad to be able to sit outside in his wheel chair to enjoy the weather instead of sitting inside and wasting away and it was a 20 ft by 28 foot under roof with rails and steps and an extra pole rail for my dad to hold onto to walk the deck for exercise and done with all deck wood and its really nice and we got a total of 330 bucks for all that but we didnt complain as it was from our hearts to my dad as I am a daddy's girl and even though he is now a beautiful Angel I am still a daddys girl..we also put siding on their house which was stucco house so it all had to be drilled in with plastic inserts and we done it the way my dad always wanted it to look and I would have done anything for my daddy as he would do anything for me I was his baby girl but again we done it out of the kidness of our hearts and love for hi, .. there is alot more to add from and about other family members that saved them BUNDLES but can't even help with a meal now.. but I will not hold a grudge or judge them as its not my place to and they will be judged in the end and that is when it counts the most..but I keep praying to the Good Lord that one day there will be a way for all we need to happen! Hope is running thin though and to the point of just tossing life in and ending it all..and I know that is the wrong way to think but sometimes your mind and heart gets tired and weary and just wants to give up but I will fight till the end to reach our goals of making it to NY.. I really hate to ask and beg but I do not know anything else I can do except keep doing what I am doing and also ask for some help.. I hope all who is needing help will recieve the help they need and I pray for many many Blessings to come your way.. God Bless...

Down Payment for Home

Posted by droch95 on 2011-01-25 11:58:58

My Fiancé and I have 5 kids between the both of us and all under the ages range from 15 to 6. We are looking to purchase a home so that we can be a bit more comfortable. Right now we are in an 800 square ft apartment and we are all on top of each other. We could use some help with the down payment on a home so that we can make our monthly payments affordable. Thank you for your help

Please Help Me Get My Dog Out From The Pound

Posted by GodzJewel on 2010-11-01 08:58:58

My dog was picked up for biting someone who was on our property uninvited. He was chained, with no way to harm anyone unless they came close to him. He barks to warn us when someone is on our property, and also to warn the intruder to leave. For some unknown reason, the person continued to walk toward him, and got nipped on the hand. Unfortunately, it was enough to break the skin.

Now, I'm told that I can't get him back unless I have a 6-ft. fence put up around our property. We already have one about 4-ft., but the hurricane messed up some of it and busted in our gate. Now it's gonna cost about $3000 to have an 8-ft. fence installed. Meanwhile, my dog is staying at the pound, and I'm getting sicker and sicker as each day passes that something will happen to him.

I would be very grateful for any donation amount that brings me closer to the $3000. Thank you in advance.

Oh My Goodness, Never thought I would be here needing money for bills. But guess what? Here I am, and here I go.... First off, I lost my job this year as a FT Substitute Teacher working with Pre-K-6th grade students. I have been making ends meet with a little financial planning, but thats gone and bills are knocking on my door. My daughter and I usaully volunteer at local nursing homes and we use to donate things for the elderly and I guess somehow its my turn to recieve and not give. It feels kinda funny on my end not being able to put my money in the offering plate. So if you could spare some cha-ching, we would greatly appreciate it! THANKS!

Oh My God I Can't Believe I'm doing This

Posted by cindysee22 on 2010-08-30 10:58:58

I have been fighting to save my Home, its not much just 1000 sq ft small. we got into a Junk Loan and then found out it was to late to get out of it and it was was all down hill from there. We lost 2000 amonth income, started taking on the responsabilty of taking care of a elderly parent, then our son lost his house so we let them move in he lost his job 2 months later then my daughter-in-law lost her job and they have three kids, I worked 7 days a week and so did my husband so then they downsized. So we started falling behind and it was out of control. I have a pasion to Pray morning, noon. and night abd bury myself in the BIBLE. I still waver in my Faith, that I know God will take care of it all. God Bless who ever reads this !!!

New, single mother seeking assistance

Posted by NewMommyinMarch on 2010-07-12 12:58:58

I am a single mother who receives no assistance from the father. I do have a FT job, and do not receive any government assistance. However, I do have a lot of credit card debt (that I have been working on) and doctor bills above what my insurance would pay.
I have spent the last year working on my credit, but the new baby expenses threaten to destroy all the hard work I have already put in. My goal is $20,000, but any and all donations would be of great assistance and much appreciated.
Thank You!

My name is Ann.

My past:
I used to have 4 jobs and took care of myself and daughter. I fell in love with a man with maxxed out credit. That was 14yrs ago. After many promises to marry me I became ill. I had a birth deffect which caused weight gain, problems bending turning and lifting. Toxins filled my system until my bleeding in the embillical cord started. I became a prisoner in my non functioning body. After 6 months of bleeding and surgeries I was released but told I would have a long healing process. I am doing somewhat better but still cannot do alot of bending although I am proud to say I can tie my shoes :)

The Event that changed my daughters life:
My fiance and I had purchased a fixer upper and our family moved in and shortly after the economy messed up and so did our finances even more. My fiance left us with the mortgage and no car, no income, no food, no nothing. We lost our home and I was forced to move to the only place I could afford to move. I recieve $65 a month child support.

My daughter had spent her whole life going to the same school. She has dyslexia and is LD. She works hard and managed to be a honor student taking all honors classes. She plays 3 sports in hopes that she will be able to obtain a college scholarship otherwise she knows we will never afford to go. She was President of her class and Capt of her volleyball team when we had to remove her from her school. Her GPA dropped due to combining classes and classes where not on the same page. She lost a seal on her deploma because her new school didnt offer all the honor classes she needed. She is still working to get an advanced deploma and she just got back on the honor roll. She was lined up to get into the fire dept and to take lifeguard classes when her dad left. All things I couldnt afford to give her. :( I managed to sell half of our belongings to pay for drivers ed.

The home we moved into 8 months ago needed electrical work and more. We had no where else we could go so we had to take it. They agreed to let me move in for cheap if I could fix it. My brother pays my rent, phone and electric but I am still with out a car to allow me to get to work. We live about 20 minutes from town. Our driveway is 1/2 mile long and when we got 3 ft of snow this winter we walked out to get ride to the store. Our town has no job openings. I have no living room furniture, no tv and we have mattresses on the floor in the good part of the house.

Recently to add to the stress I had a tooth fall out and part of it remained. It got infected and when the gums swelled my tooth next to it broke out. :(

My future:
Right now I feel like I am losing the fight. I know my daughter deserves so much more and I am not afraid to work for it. I spent months online trying to make money online from home. No luck. I seriously dont know what else to do then to beg and pray. I spent many years volunteering my time and I was on many boards. I keep wondering why me and my daughter? Where is our help? I fear I will lose my home or even worse...my child. Please help.

I am looking for about $1000 to start my business which I can make my own hours and I have people lined up for business, I am a photographer.
I could seriously use a few thousand to get a reliable car.
I could use about $1000 for my daughter to go to camp and for much needed clothes.
I could use funiture, household items, towels, and a tv.

Thank you in advance, every dollar counts.
