Gear Tags

on march 9 of 2010 i was injured in an automotive accident involving a drunk driver, i now live on ssi. i was building a model airplane with my son that has had to stop because i'm no longer able to purchase the parts that i need from what i recieve from ssi. the thing's that i really need can be found and purchased on common internet sites. from tower hobbies i need futaba servos and accesories to go with them, from amr-rc i need a moki 250 7 cylinder motor with the fuel pump, from century jet models i need the landing gear and accesories for the 120" f4u corsair. my son and i were building this model prior to the accident and he wants badly to get it finished he is only 11 years old. and the accident has taken away my ability to be able to earn the money needed to purchase the items needed to continue the construction of it. any help i recieve is greatly appreciated.

My 1990 F-150 is the only transportation I have and her transmission lost top gear. I understand that the rest of the gears are very close behind, but I don't have the money to fix it, nor can I just park it since it's all I have. The transmission shop tells me it will take $1500-$2000 to rebuild it. So far I've got $50 I can put towards that. Please help!

If you have a collage degree, house, bank account, good car, and a career: please help me. I have none of these things. I have no diploma. I had to get help to pay for a GED just recently, wish me luck on the test. I rent a single wide trailer that had mold problems and made my family sick. We are better now. The landlord ripped the shower and floors out and replaced everything. I am afraid of the mold coming back and making us sick again. I’m 26 and have no bank account. I tried to start one but couldn’t keep any money in it, because of how little I made in construction. My car doesn’t go into reverse and slips in first gear sometimes. I have no job because I was laid off three months ago when the job ended. I’ve been looking for jobs and filling out applications around my small city, but no one will call me back.

Let me tell you more about myself. I was two years old when my father was shot and killed in the big city. I grew up on welfare with my mother and grandmother. When I was seven we lost grandma’s house and began to move around a lot. When I was twelve, my grandmother died from being in a moldy house that we were renting. My mother moved to the country with her boyfriend and I followed shortly after. In school I was smart, but moving around everywhere was costly. I lost credit for a lot of hard work simply because the schools were on two different schedules. After living with my mom’s drunken boyfriend and having him beat on her, I dropped out of school to get a job in construction. I was able to make enough for us to rent our own place.

I married my high school sweetheart about a year ago. I had hoped that we would make a wonderful life together, but it’s proven to be very difficult. She did graduate and attend college; however, she did not finish her Bachelors degree. She has a little more than half a semester left, but we ran into some tax problems and she has not been able to go back and finish. Now she owes 6,000 in college dept and I owe thousands in back taxes. She has eyesight problems (coloboma) and can’t drive herself. She works with her mom cleaning houses and babysitting. I dream about being rich and successful, and making all our financial problems go away. I don’t see how that’s going to happen with all of our problems. I want to go to college and get a degree, but I need help getting on my feet. Please help me and my family realize our dreams of financial freedom.

America is one of the most charitable nations on earth, with lots of people that have been financially blessed. I read that there are 7.5 million millionaires in America, and I hope someone reading this is one of them. Please change my life forever with a big donation. I dream of being successful and using my money to help others who need it. I want to make a difference for good in this troubled world, but it’s hard to do when you can’t even help yourself.

I must say that everyone will think this a scam but this very real. I am in need of an angle to help me I just found out that my great aunt is in the hospital in Saint John New Brunswick she is in her late 80s. She has been there since her husband passed away I just talked to her today after finding out where she ened up. I find out from that my so called uncle cleaned out her apartment and her bank account and sold all of her items. The poor lady broke down crying on the phone with me she never hurt anyone and does not deserve this she now may be getting out of the hospital in a few weeks. We come from a messed up family that think of no one but themselves I do not want her to spend her last days in some home with strangers and no one to love her or really care about her.the reason I need an angle is I am 50 and live on a small pension I can no longer work due to my own health issues and what I need is some kind person to help me move back there to look after her and I do not have the money to due this I have nothing really of value all I have is some used diving gear and a 12 year old car. I need to come up with 2000.00 to move back this money will be used to fix my car and get me and her an apartment. If any kind soul can help it would mean a lot I am not a man of god but right now I pray that some one can help if your are this person I can provide any proof that you may need of this please no nasty emails saying that I am a scammer this is very real I do understand that you have all heard this before thankyou for your time and consideration. I would like to say thank to the person that helped me out by buying some parts for my car and the few repairs that he did thanks Bill
Also to the person that posted a nasty reply with no return address I live on 328.00 that is paid from welfare for rent as I live in BC housing and get less than 500.00 per month from my cpp pension so you have no idea what I deal with health wise. Thankyou to everyone else for your nice emails

Hello! I am 18 years old and just graduated and, although it is a milestone, I know it is only the beginning of my life. To prepare myself for all of the new challenges and tribulations I will have as an adult, I have choose to go a different path then most of my classmates. Instead of going to college right away or taking a year off, I have decided to do a BDTS (Backpackers Discipleship Training School) in New Zealand.


DTS is the training program for Youth With A Mission (YWAM). YWAM is a world-wide, youth based missionary organization whose motto is "to know God and to make him known." Each DTS starts with a 3 month lecture faze meant for me to "know God." During this time i will be stationed in New Zealand studying various topics and learning from multiple speakers. On the weekends me and my team will make trips to Christchurch as well as adventurous outdoor trips. After that, the next faze is the outreach to "make him known." This is the part where i will be backpacking around New Zealand with my team spreading the word of God. After that i graduate from the program and am able to become a part of the organization's staff.

I am so excited to do this training. This Training is just what I need to set a good foundation with Christ in my life before being thrown into the college life to become a nurse.

Of course, there are also large obstacles set in front of me that, if it were not for God, I would see as without a solution.

This specific backpacking DTS is offered only once every few years and costs $11,000. That is including the $3000 plane ticket, backpacking gear, food, tuition, traveling within NZ and health insurance. I have raised, thanks to the help of my family, friends and my church, $8,600. This leaves me with about $2500 left to raise by September 28th of 2011 (just a few months away now).

I KNOW that with the help my friends, family, my two jobs, God and you, it WILL happen. I know this because God wants me to go. Simple as that. And when God wants something, he makes it happen as long as you cooperate and trust in him. And that, I do.

If donating is something you feel you are be able to do I would be so very thankful. And I remind you that anything helps. Being a waitress, I know that even small quantities add up to a large sum.

Hi my name is Mark. I am just a regular guy that has trudged through life doing what I am supposed to do. I work shift work for little pay and I hate it, I have been depressed for many years and have become very reclusive. I love my dog, Jesus and not much else,including myself. I want to just load some camping gear in my tiny truck that will be paid for in two months, buy my boxer Willie, a flea collar and camp at free sites across the US. I want to find myself for the first time in 38 years. I want to see the country I served for 5 years in the Marines and 3 years in the Army. I want to read, fish, play guitar, and write down the days events. Pick up a job here and there for gas, rice and beans, vehicle papers, repairs and hygiene items. Someone else can have my job who needs it with a family and I will take their place without a home. I honestly prefer next to nothing to having almost anything.

I've been looking to get a motorcycle, and I found a good condition one that suits my needs and wants perfectly and need 3000 to be able to get it and gear to be safe.

A motorcycle will help me save money because it gets better gas mileage than a Prius. I plan to use it to get to school and sports practice etc., and have a 4.0 and am working on my Eagle Scout.

My parent's aren't always able to drive me around everywhere, and not only would this greatly benefit me, but it would take a burden off their shoulders as well.

Hello my name is Rachel and I have a dream. My dream is to record my outdoor hikes and edit them into videos that will be posted to Youtube to be viewed by those who might be house bound or not able to walk the trails. My ultimate goal is to record my family walking the Pacific Crest Trail in 2019 in full from Mexico to Canada. In the meantime we are training on local trails and will record them for public enjoyment.

The Gear I need:
- Macintosh Laptop
- Video Editing Software
- 4 GoPro HD Cameras and harness for chest and head mounts, storage and extra batteries
- external hard drive
- hiking gear for a family of four

Thank you for considering this cause. I hope we can make this dream happening. As an out of work teacher here in California I am hoping to bring my passion for learning and the outdoors to the people of the net.

Thank you for you time and support! If you donate I will make sure to send you my youtube channel information so you can track my progress.

Much love!

Things have gone just horribly for my boyfriend and I this winter. It has been an absolute NIGHTMARE so far.

FIRST, the truck we rely on for transportation to our jobs and school needed it's engine replaced due to a blown head gasket. When we put in the new engine (well..used, from a part's truck), it worked great, for a little while, then the transmission started... and we had to shift back and forth between drive and second gear on the highway....this didn't work out to our advantage for long and it now sits in a driveway of our friends uninsured and unregistered (we lost our jobs because of this!!!!! Paying for school AND the new engine took pretty much all of our money)... We both had to stop going to school... we could no longer pay our rent, so we moved into a tent in our friend's yard and other people who COULD pay moved into our home of 2 years... It's been only 3 months now...and has felt like TEN YEARS. I don't know what to do anymore. My boyfriend REFUSES to go to a shelter and I don't want to leave his side. We have a propane heater that keeps us warm and many layers of clothing. Occaisionally we are able to stay at friend's houses, but I just moved here so I don't really know many people. I feel like I am going to have a nervous breakdown sometimes. Some days I just cry and cry.. All this trouble because of our CAR and not having much money in the bank!!!!! Shows how quickly things can change!

PLEASE HELP! We will be forever appreciative!

Sincerely,
Jennifer

I have been looking for a nice reward for my two years, three months and eighteen days of sobriety.

After nearly eighteen years of daily drinking gin excess of a case of beer plus a day I made the life saving decision to quit. I spent two weeks in my bedroom when i was not working trying to cope with excessive withdrawal symptoms to include; severe shaking, cold sweats, never ending headaches, and food deprivation.

At the end of those two weeks I entered myself into a rehabilitation facility and began the process of becoming clean and sober. Through-out this entire time I worked a full time job, became the only employee for the company to specialize in installation, and tried to keep my marriage and family together.

I have since enrolled in Adult education classes and completed my Associates Degree in Human Service Management, began my Bachelors degree in Psychology on my way to becoming a Chemical Dependency Councilor for Troubled Teens and at risk Young adults.

I would like to reward myself by building the one and only Hotrod vehicle I will ever own. I have a specific idea of what I would like my Hotrod to look like including drive train, paint, and interior. A basic Hotrod in the fashion of the Classic Roadster on a Budget is my goal.

In order to achieve my goal I am in need of approximately $2500 for the frame, body, and running gear. I have an engine and the skill and desire to complete this "Reward to My Sobriety" in the next eighteen months.

Any and all assistance in allowing me to achieve this goal are very heart felt and appreciated. All progress will be documented and updated on a monthly basis for all contributors to see.

Thank you for your consideration and time in reading my request for assistance.

Have a great day.

I am a 40 yr old hard working mom, but with 4 kids and less than $390. in child support, i cannot afford to buy decent clothes for two of my kids. They are teen boys and i need to be able to get them jeans and shoes and winter gear. with one kid away at college and a 5yr old, it seems i cry myself to sleep every night worrying about how to get gas for work and food, let alone clothes. they are growing and i cannot keep up. i pride myself on no credit cards, so i'm not in frivolous debt, yet still struggle to maintain.
any help would be a blessing.
thanks for reading and any prayers u may have said.

I was in a rock n' roll band with a rotating group of friends from 1996-2007. No financial institution would loan to a group of young guys so I took out personal loans and swiped my credit card so we could buy equipment, make albums and tour.

We were very successful for many years but things didn't happen for us and we eventually parted ways. The debt was always discussed with everyone but we had many lineups over the years, and because of this nobody wants to take credit. I have been been trying to get help from them for over 30 months.

I was abandoned and left with over $30,000 in debt. We had many assets, stage/studio gear, an RV, I was able to liquidate everything in order to try to keep up with monthly payments and now have the debt down to about $18,000.

Since I have had to personally take on this debt and meet all the payments on my own... I have fallen into a personal financial catastrophe. I am pretty much living off of a credit card to make my utility and fuel payments just so I can get to work to make money to pay these other bills. Got to love the circle of life.

Now that I have sold off everything, I am in dire need of financial help to be able to keep up with the payments from here on out. I make just enough money to barely keep up.

Please... If you have a few dollars to spare please donate it! It will really mean a lot and one day when I get back on my feet I will be able to give just like you!
