Hello all! My boyfriend of 6 years has made the huge commitment to serve our country. He graduates from his air force basic training in 2 months. I am 21 years old and need financial help to get there! My entire family is struggling from severe medical conditions so I am unable to work. I am the only family my boyfriend has, because he was raised in a children's home and left by his parents at a very young age. I would absolutely LOVE to be there for his graduation, and would appreciate any donation no matter how small or large it may be. Thank you all for taking the time to read this!

I am 22 year old recent college graduate struggling to find a job after graduation, thus I am struggling to pay all of my bills. I am now on the verge of homelessness. My parents are homeless as well and I come from an extremly poor family, so I have no safety net for moments like this. I have run out of savings and I have been searching for a job. I am now swallowing my pride because times are tough especially since I come from humble beginnings and I have no social connections. I have never been the type to ask for things but I don't want my pride to negatively affect my well being. I put myself through school and I am the first in my family to go to college, unlike other kids my age where their parents take care of everything for them, my father is dead and my mom is homeless as well. I really need help. I am out of options.

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!

Thank you so much for letting me share my story with you.

I am a 36 year old single mother of two awesome teenagers and I'm trying to fulfill a life long dream by going back to school.

For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to be an archaeologist and history professor as well as wanting to move to Norway since first reading the Prose Edda at the age of 11. Unfortunately those dreams got put on hold when I had my first child at the age of 19 and my second at 21. My children are now 15 and 17 and about to go off to university and begin their own lives and so it is time for me to revisit my dreams. This is going to consist of 3 steps each of wish I need help funding as I do not qualify for student loans/grants and cannot afford to quit my job to be elligible.

As the first step in this process I have been accepted to the University of Leicester to begin work on my BA in Ancient History and Classical Archaeology and am scheduled to begin classes on June 4th 2012 via distance education. In total the 3 year course will cost £10,350 with £1150 installments due every January, May and September 1st. Along with this one module requires me to go to England in year 2 for field school at Borrough Hill as well as a second trip over in year 3 for lab work. There is also an option to make a third trip for the graduation ceremony if funding allows. Each of these trips will cost roughly $2500 - $3000.

The second step in this plan is to complete a Master's degree in Nordic Viking and Medievil Studies at the University of Oslo in Norway. At this time UiO does not have tuition fees however they do require that international students have NOK 80,000 (roughly $13,500) per year of study. And Norwegian law prevents international students outside the EU from working while persuing their studies.

Finally the third step in the process much like the second involves doing further studies at UiO in the form of persuing a PhD in a topic related to Viking Metallurgy.

I have already taken steps to start covering costs on my own by working as much overtime as I can get (though this option is going to be limited once school starts as I will need to focus on school work) as well as moving from the house I was renting to a smaller, cheaper apartment with a roomate to cut costs. Unfortunately these measures alone aren't going to be enough to get me there. Any help you could give would be very much appreciated.

I don't know where to go or what to do. I've left an abusive relationship and need to be living on my own. I left all my belongings and everything i know and now i'm staying at a Women's shelter. it's really scary here.

I'm also a university student Who's tuition is being paid by my abuser..I only have 1 term left before graduation and hope of a real job and life on my own. All I want in life is to be a nurse... i'm so close. My name is Holly. I pray for somebody's help. I don't have anyone to depend on but me. My graduation day is August 28th/2012 and I would love for the person who helps me to be there.

sincerely,
holly

I am a graduating college senior in a bit of a financial predicament.

1. I still don't have my cap and gown. I had one, but my car got stolen and I stupidly hadn't taken it out yet, and when I got my car back it was gone. That's $89.

2. My family is coming for graduation. No one has any money, and I just want to pay for their hotel for one night so they can see me graduate. I'm the first in my family to graduate from a major university, that's $100.

3. I would love to cook a huge meal for my friends and family while they are here for my graduation. I could work wonders with just another $100.

4. My bank account is overdrawn. If it doesn't get paid in two weeks, then I can't get my financial aid from my new graduate program I'm starting in a few weeks. Its my only bank account and I won't qualify for another one because I've made some major financial mistakes while in college. Its $75 overdrawn.

5. My phone bill is due in 6 days. To avoid service interruption, I have to pay 2 months worth of the bill, since I'm behind one month. The full amount due is $175.00.

6. I was lucky enough to find an apartment I can live in for really cheap for the summer, until my full time job I just got starts and I get my financial aid from my program. The deposit for the apartment is $150, and I have the rest of May absolutely free and can even pay the rent of June when I get my financial aid from my grad program.

7. The last 11 dollars is just to have something in my pocket, since I seriously do not have any money.

I know there are probably more beggars on this site than donors, but I figured it was worth a try. This is why I need the money. If you send me $700 via paypal, I will delete this ad and send you $1000 back on the 10th of June. Guaranteed.

Here I am, 42, single with 2 children, ages 10 and 12, and struggling. I got my first eviction notice in my entire life in 2/2012. I pray it is my last.
I have narcolepsy and HBP hovering between 180/110 to 211/127. I lost my health insurance at the end of April 2012. I have about 2 weeks of medications remaining.

What am I doing? I do contract work when I can find it. I baby sit and take a friend's child to school for a little money when I can. I get $500 in food stamps and $600 in child support. I have been working on my graduate degree part-time for 4 years. Now, working on the required 600 clinical hour requirement for my degree. It is sooo hard to find work, have child care and do 25 hours of unpaid clinical work, especially when you need affordable or free child care.

I need help to pay rent and buy medication. Right now, I have no employment income at all. Wow. It hurts to see it in print. How much? $6000 would sustain us until my December graduation. However, my narcolepsy medication costs $250 a month and today, gas is $3.80 a gallon. I live as cheaply as a can. I am not in any position to choose when all I have are needs.

I dont want to be this close to completing my degree, only to drop out so we can survive. Please help us. Please. If I can get through these 600 hours, and we have somewhere to live, a car to drive so I can work and we eat, I will be so grateful.

I recently left my husband after 20 years and now I am on my own with 6 kids. I am trying to get on my feet but with all my bills past due it is really hard. My husband did not work much and drank all the time. I had to get out. I just need help to get caught up on all my bills and then i will be okay. I need about $500.00. I am going to school and will be done in May 2012. I also have to pay for my babies 8th grade graduation that is $125.00 before May 31, 2012. God bless all of you .

I am a medical doctor and I've been practicing for about 3years now post graduation. I secured admission for a master in public health at the University of Leeds and I urgently need an equivalent of $25,000.00 USD for my tuition fees and registration by the end of July. I had to defer my admission last year due to lack of finances and I'm yet to raise money for my fees but I've been able to raise money for my flight ticket and living expenses. My study of this program will help me improve the health standard of my people. I will be overly grateful for your assistance. Thank you in advance.

I am in the military and haven't been able to see my parents for a long time...I have been in training for over a year. I am about to graduate in a couple of weeks and am living paycheck to paycheck,so I don't have the money to get them here. They also cant afford it because they just lost their house about a three months ago and are almost to the point of being homeless. I just was asking for the money to be able to bring them out to see my graduation. I'm in CA and they re in Va, I just know that this would make them feel so blessed in the middle of their crisis. I thank anyone in advance for helping out.

God Bless,

I need to get back to Houston Texas from Idaho. I moved here with my youngest two children and my oldest opted to stay and graduate with the people she knows and in her support system of teachers. It wasn't easy, but I had to get out of the abusive situation. It breaks my heart not to be able to get there to see her graduate high school. She has some emotional disabilities and it's been a challenge. Being there for her this time would mean the world to us. She misses us. I would bring here back with me and get her away from the elements here that eat kids like here alive. She has endured so much and going for graduation also would mean i would be there to travel back with her. Total cost is about $1400. I'm selling what little i have, as two kids a dog and i moved here with just a mini van of stuff 6 months ago.Any help at all...
Thank You so much.

As the title says, I am a college student, in the last month of my last semester of college (the final stretch!). No sob story, I just do not have enough money to pay my last bill on my tuition, my last months rent/utilities, or my fees for graduation. Anything would help (i do mean anything $2, $3, whatever!)
Thank you so much!

I come from a single parent household, with a mother that has taken care of 3 households. She can only do so much. I have had to stay off campus this last year in college, due to the school running out of housing, something unplanned. Since staying in this apartment since august, I have only had groceries in my household only 2 of those months, this is the 8th month here, I have had no food, and have only $1 in my account. All im asking for is help, so that I can finally have food to eat, because the next thing to do is to go to a food bank, and hope that they'll let me get food. This is the first time about me even hearing about this site, and if there is someone out there that is willing to help, this will help me carry over until my graduation in may in which i plan to then go into my career. However, I've just hit a point where having no food to eat,nothing to drink except tap water, nor money to even get something off of a dollar menu, is just added stress on top of school, my insomnia, my grandmother passing suddenly etc. I have tried to find employment while in school but after applying to over hundreds of jobs throughout the years, DENIED FOODSTAMPS, there has been no luck. I'm taking any donations...HOPEFULLY I CAN REACH AT LEAST 100 TOTAL IN DONATIONS SO I CAN HAVE FOOD FOR THE NEXT 2 MONTHS...I HAVE NOTHING RIGHT NOW
