I have a friend who moved to the phillippines and got married to a native, she left him, took him for all he had and he now has no way to get home !! Would like to ask for donations to help get him a plane ticket and visa updated!

My family has multiple medical bills that we cannot pay down. I lost my job last month and my wife has a low paying job. We cannot pay our medical bills, $18,000, because of our low paying jobs, we can barely afford food. About $7,000 is for our daughter's birth. My wife is native American, and she was promised by the Indian health service that her pre natal care and birth were paid for, but they ended up not paying. We tried to get her on Medicaid, but they said it was too late and we were stuck with the bill we couldn't pay. Last year my gallbladder shut down. I had to have surgery, and with the insurance I had they paid about half, leaving me with $11,000 in hospital bills. I've been trying to find a new job, but have been unsuccessful. Things are hard out there for me, but I try every day. Please someone help us with our burden, $18,000 may not seem like much to some, but to us who scrape by little, it sure is alot.

I met the girl of my life while I was in another country. Now that I'm back in the US, and she's still in Europe, I cannot see her. We talk on skype all of the time and we always write emails. I always tell her how much I love her and how I dream about seeing her in person very often. She didn't used to dream about me, but she recently started! I'm a student and she is, too. We both study Spanish and we talk in Spanish when we speak, which I really like because It's neither one of our native languages. WE are in love, she feels the same way about me as I do for her. I really want to see her for Christmas but flights start at $800, half of which she will pay, which leaves $400 for me to pay. If you know what love feels like, you'll understand me. Thank you for your consideration. I'll even work for it if you have anything I can do.

Hello, I never ask him for anything for himself, even about myself today is no different. Unfortunately I lost my job due to global crisis, is facing a difficult decision. I have a great Saint. Bernard dog Baryk Name 7 point. My pet weighs only 80 kg of food it costs 20 dollars a day, which I now can not afford. So I decided together to take this opportunity to ask all the good people every post on my Baryk.
The situation is as follows:
1st I Gotta Eat Baryk.
2nd Baryk eat me (metaphorically speaking) financially.
3rd find someone who will help me Baryk live until I am able to find work.
Thank you in advance for any help
Have a nice day
Sorry my English is not my native language

Hello out there! I am 28, hoping to start a small, organic farm/homestead with my boyfriend, and I am looking for financial assistance in buying land and start-up costs. I have worked on a number of organic vegetable farms, selling both for market and CSA (community supported agriculture, where individuals or families buy a seasonal share and receive weekly boxes of produce). I have some experience with Biodynamic Farming (and intend to study it more), Permacultural design & philosophy, and natural building. I have the knowledge and will, and now I need the start up money!

Ideally I would like to grow medicinal plants (native & non-native) for seed and to sell as starts. I have some experience with this sort of business as well, and would probably start with some basics: lemon balm, peppermint, lavender, milk thistle, Echinacea, etc. We will also begin with a large vegetable garden to supply our own sustenance and to sell produce at a roadside farm-stand or local farmer's market (depending on our location). We will have chickens for eggs and meat, and, after a couple years, I hope to add goats and/or sheep, for milk, meat, and wool. I have learned to spin, and weave (on a four-harness floor loom), and felt, and I hope that we could add to our income with fiber and fiber arts created from our animals. Also interested in soap-making, but don't know much about that yet. Flowers are another potential crop.

We are looking to buy 10-20 acres, probably in the Pacific Northwest. We do have some money for a down payment, and this is a great time to buy property (low mortgage rates and low prices). Other start-up costs will be: building materials for a home, chicken coop, small barn, and fencing; seeds and potting soil; animal feed; fruit tree & perennial herb starts. Anything you could give would help out!! Thank you much, and happy growing!

Hi Everyone, I'm 50 y/o and I have never thought of begging until now. Over the past few weeks I kept praying and asking God to help me, saying repeatedly, "Lord, there must be a way that I can ask people for help...I'm at my wits end". I started searching putting in phrases asking for help and discovered this site. All I can say is that so much is happening at once...I have faith, but it's really hard.

I suffer with bouts of hemorrhage which impede my ability to maintain a steady job because when it happens I'm absent from work almost two weeks. When it happens I lie in bed and wonder/pray Lord will I live or die? Do I need a transfusion? I'm about two points from a transfusion now. I need to purchase medical insurance so I can see a doctor and take care of this one way or another. Hospital bills are about 20,000 now. I need money for medical insurance and also to have dental work done. My teeth hurt. I need about several thousand dollars of dental work done. One dentist's attorney is threatening to seize my car. I owe him $6000.00. I had paid him $3000.00 already, but he raised it back up as if I had paid nothing. I couldn't make it to court because of hemorrhage and the judge put the judgment through.

Even worse, I have a son whom I love very much, living with his dad. David is 18 now with prior developmental challenges. His father made repeated threats on my life if I didn't transfer custody. How I mourn that I gave in. I owe back child support because I haven't been able to work steadily. I do whatever I can with dignity. I do private caregiving, clean houses, some occasional paralegal contract work, sew-make native coats and sew clothes in general--all when I'm able, feeling strong. When I'm not well with the hemorrhage I'm on bed rest. My earnings are not even enough to pay my bills...not to mention child support. I presented proof of hemorrhage to a semijudge(mediator etc.)in court and she rejected it and computed a monthly amount of $400.00 based on my ability to earn money because of my educational background. She didn't compute it based on facts. Anyway, I have to appear in court on May 2 for another violation of nonpayment not because I don't want to pay, but because I can't afford it. They're saying that in total I owe $26,000.00. There is a chance that they'll incarcerate me on 5/2/11 for nonpayment of child support. God says do not be afraid, but this is alot, more than I can bear alone.

Please, I am begging, pleading for help, for compassion with tears in my eyes and my heart just wants to burst. I feel so alone with these problems. No one really knows how badly I feel. I love life and I love people, and I do whatever I can to love my neighbor as myself and to love God with all my heart mind and soul, but this just seems to much to bear.

All I can offer is my love and friendship, appreciation if you will be so kind and compassionate as to donate to my cause. I will be forever grateful and I will pray that you have stored up treasures in heaven with Almighty God. I will pray for you and your loved ones. If you are ill or suffering with illness or addiction of some sort I will pray with you. I could meet with you in NYC or you could join me in the mid hudson valley, brunch, walk and talk when I'm able. I just mean to say that this is the truth. I need desperate help before May 2 and ongoing. I need an attorney as well as money. Please help me to turn this around. I'd have a hysterectomy if I could afford it. Leave your number or mailing address and I'll be glad to personally thank you. Money is a tool and I need the help now more than ever. Please help me. Thank you and God bless you.

S.A.F.E. Network is in our 13th year of protecting children and teens against sexual predators. We are currently working in over 40 states, protecting thousands of children across the country. Our personal protection topics include, Home Alone Safety, Bully Prevention, Sex Abuse Prevention, New Parent & Teen Parent Education, Teen Dating Safety and more.

We educate kids and teens on the tricks and lures that predators use to gain access to and maintain control of them. We provide staff training and curriculum to groups that work with kids and teens. We empower parents and youth with what they need to know to stay safe from anyone who wishes to harm them.

The economy has dramatically affected 98% of our client base which includes the military, Native Americans, Foster Agencies, and other such child advocate agencies because they depend on Federal funds. The current situation in Washington has put all spending on hold with all of these agencies.

WE KNOW WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE. We have been called many times over the years by agency directors sharing how some child was saved from abductions or abuse by remembering and using the skills they learned through our programs. WE NEED YOUR HELP. Funding is currently at a standstill. WE DO NOT AND HAVE NEVER RECEIVE FEDERAL OR STATE FUNDS. All of our funds are derived from the purchase of our programs. Our staff, child and teen and parent trainings are all free services, which right now we can no longer provide. NO DONATION IS TOO SMALL, ANY AND EVERYTHING DONATED WILL HELP US TO KEEP PROVIDING OUR SERVICES.

BY GOING TO OUR WEBSITE OR THROUGH PAYPAL YOU CAN DONATE OR PURCHASE ITEMS THAT WILL WORK FOR YOUR FAMILY OR GROUP. PLEASE HELP US KEEP HELPING TO KEEP OUR CHILDREN AND TEENS SAFE FROM SEXUAL ABUSE, ABDUCTION AND EXPLOITATION.

I HAVE A SPECIAL FRIEND WHO IS A MEMBER OF THE SIOUX TRIBE FROM SOUTH DAKOTA. HE HAS BEEN STUDYING WITH CEREMONIAL LEADERS FOR SEVERAL YEARS TO HELP KEEP THE NATIVE AMERICAN TRADITIONS AND CEREMONIES A PART OF TODAYS BELIEFS. THERE IS A SUNDANCE CEREMONY IN ARIZONA WHERE NATIVE AMERICANS COME TOGETHER TO PRAY AND DANCE FOR WORLD PEACE. THIS IS A SEVEN DAY RITUAL AND IT IS GOING TO COST HIM QUITE A BIT OF MONEY FOR TRAVEL TO GET THERE AND THE THINGS HE WILL NEED TO SURVIVE THE WEATHER OUTSIDE IN JUNE(TENT, WATER COOLER, ETC.) HE IS ON DISABILITY AND HAS DIABETES SO THIS TRIP WILL NOT BE EASY, BUT GETTING THERE AND PARTICIPATING IN THE CEREMONY MEANS EVERYTHING TO HIM. ANYTHING YOU CAN DONATE TO HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. PLEASE HELP

I have NEVER EVER done this before but I ran across this site and figured I have nothing to loose trying. "Where there is a will there is a way!" Where to start? Sighhh...
I am the sweetest, sensitive, charitable, loving, giving, God Fearing, non judgemental, lover, encourager lady.. Many of my closest friends and family call me an "Angel on earth"... But even Angels need help once in a while.. I'm usually the helper so asking for help is new and a bit hard for me to chew..

First let's start with: My name is Crystal H.. I am a 32 year old caucasion lady that lives in Colorado.. Native to Colorado. Growing up I excelled in school thus earning 4.0 average and constant Honor Roll. I did have College opportunities ect. but at that time I met a young man in college, football player and fell in love. I had a good paying job as an office manager and thought all was good.. It was for several years anyway..We married and At 23yrs. I gave birth to my miriacle baby whom was premature and weighed 2 lbs. 11oz. I was very ill at the end of pregnancy due to acute Eclampsia so she was born early emergency c-cection, flight for lifed to Childrens Hospital in Denver and I stayed in ICU for the first week.. Keep in mind due to circumstances I never was able to see or touch my daughter before they airlifted her to Denver.. Finally one week later my doctor gave me a two hour pass to beable to go to Denver and meet my new daughter for the very first time.. Words can't tell what I felt and the emotions I was feeling.. I still tear up recounting the events.. But yes after many tears, fear of touching or holding her due to her size and all that was hooked up to her I did finally get courageous enough to hold my new born daughter after a week for the first time.. Love at first sight! Chills are still going through my body as I write this.. Anyway's over time she improved and became much stronger. She was small but mighty. I was finally released from the hospital myself and spent all my time with her at Childrens Hospital until release day.. Brought her home at 3 lbs. 12 oz and had the ultimate baby learning/motherly instincts. With 4 yrs. of twice weekly physical therapy she grew out of her challenges, and has grown into an way above average intellence, beautiful nine yr. old.. Thank you God!!!

My next challenges were none to fun at all! My marriage became rocky.. He became abusive physically, emotionally and mentally.. After about the last 3 yrs. becoming so bad and scary I could not deal with his abuse or allow my daughter seeing such activity. So with that said I asked him to leave our home. He would not leave without a police escort, but finally was gone nonetheless.. I am NOT pro divorce at all so after the initial anger callmed down I did go to him asking him to please do counceling with me and let's really try to work this all out. He REFUSED! So after being with my ex husband twelve years we finally did divorce.. =(

Right after the divorce at the age of 30, I was rushed to the ER and diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. I was in ICU for over one week and spent several months at home on oxygen. But now since the divorce I was dropped from his insurance so I am unable to have the cardiovascular care needed and a heart valve repaired.. But I have faith one day I will beable to have this delt with.. Gotta believe!

Next was really NOT PLANNED or wanted but happened. I finally met a young man whom I started spending much time with. Due to my heart and lack of insurance I was not on birth control but did use condoms with him. Unfortunately a condom did break and yes I did become pregnant.. Three day's before Christmas last year I misscarried the baby and spent two day's in hospital due to D&C and my heart. I was released at Christmas and had a hard time dealing with the hormones, lack of support from the young man, failure in my parents eyes ect.. Just plain and simple was a hard time for me emotionally but I NEVER once let my daughter know of this and still have not to this day. She does not need to be scared any further than what she has already in life.

Now we come to current events.. Swear I have let my life become a soap opera and should right a what not to do and how to survive book for women.. sighhhhh.... Anyways. After being single for nearly a year and of course wishing I could meet a nice (preferably) Christian boy to date and enter into a relationship with a man whom I have known for several years who was a family friend while I was married came back into my life. This time he showed strong romantic gestures and over time did finally earn some trust n love with me. We entered into a relationship and it felt safe and comfortable since I'd known him so long, family new him and my daughter new him well already too..
I finally started becoming happier and was slowly gaining a little self confidence, and believing that things will end up working out finally afterall.. (Keep in mind due to lack of insurance and Heart Failure I was still not allowed on birth control pills like I wanted) we of course used protection always. But two times the condom came off in me.. I hoped all would be fine and I would not become pregnant, not at all wanting to repeat my first ordeal I had with my daughter plus now with my Congestive Heart Failure on top of it all pregnancy would NOT be good! I went to a local clinic and talked to a female doctor there and begged her if there would be anyway I could qualify for any free birth control that would not hinder my CHF.. Finally I had good news.. =) She said she would see if I could qualify for the low hormone Miranna and if I did she would implant it in my uterous for free.. This was to last for five years.. Yes one positive answered prayer. I went to my doctors oppt. as sheduled, they had me do an UA to make sure I was not pregnant before insertion and preped me for the procedure. Right before the Doctor was to do procedure the nurse came into the room and notified both of us that indeed I was pregnant.. My head swirled with confusion, fear, stress ect.. After talking to my doctor briefly about it, my history ect. I left the office and proceeded to go to my boyfriend to update him of the current events.. At the very beginning he sounded happy and positive, even eased my mind a little but about two day's later he up and left me. I have had my first ultrasound and as of yet the baby is alive and well. Strong heart beat. I am nearly two months pregnant, doctor took me off all my heart meds. due to baby. Still no insurance, applied for Medicade which really saddened me that I was at a point I had to do this.. Very humbling to say the least, and am alone, confused, many urging me to abort the baby but remember I am Christian and this is a hard concept for me to accept.. Currently unemployed, single mother, pregnant, no father support, lonely, desperate and really beginning to feel hopeless.. There is a high probability that the acute Eclampsia could repeat itself again as it did with my daughter and now I'm older than before. Not 23 anymore now I'm 32 with Congestive Heart Failure and Hypertension. Trying to support my nine year old the best I can and now so worried and fearful of what is to come.. Christmas just happened and it so did not feel like Christmas to me. Not much I could do for my daughter or my loved ones. I'm so scared of what the near future holds and how I will beable to deal with it, and be healthy enough to continue taking care of my nine yr. old. Need a good job but kinda feel it would be hard since I am so high risk I have MANY constant dr. visits. Neonatal parnatologist, my OB, and supposed to find a cadiologist as well to monitor me.. Medicade pending but no answer if they would accept me yet, bills piling up, and feeling out of control totally of my life right now.. Sad and confused that bf left me too.. I'm praying sooooo hard daily, nightly, looking on internet for at home jobs I could do but most end up seeming like scams, keep going to church in order to help try to keep me grounded and keep the faith that somehow it will all work out.. I sure hope I have not bored you to death, some may be pretty disgusted by my mistakes and situation, but I do hope nonetheless that maybe even just one person actually found this post, read it through, and maybe just maybe is in a posistion of life that they could and would be willing to help me out a little.. The whole "Pay it forward" campaign.. I fully believe in that and fully believe what goeas around comes around.. Regardless of the outcome I wan't to take a moment to wish everyone that took the time to read my post all the best to you and yours, full love and ENDLESS BLESSINGS to all!

With love and true sencerity,
Crystal H...¢¾

Hello,
I am a bit unsure as to where I should begin.. My name is Melissa. I am a student of Native American studies. As my life goes on I keep returning to the idea that I truly desire nothing more than a plot of land with some water source to live on. I would like to help support my teacher, would like to help support the family I pray with. My only desire is to live in harmony with the earth and help those whom I may...
If such a piece of a land were donated to me, I would build a very small house (cabin) for myself and would open it up to my extended family that prays in this way. I would hope they would build what they wished, as long as it was sustainable. Eventually, maybe, we could hold a Sundance there.... And I dream of someday being able to open up such a space to troubled teenagers, to help them see that it will get better and Spirit is with them all the time..... Even thinking about this potentiality brings butterflies to my stomach and joy to my heart!
At the moment I live in a very small town in the middle of nowhere.. I have no legal car, cannot find work here, and so I'm having a very difficult time trying to figure out how to get somewhere where I could make enough money to buy this piece of land I see....
So there are really a lot of ways help could be given... and it is not just for me, but so I can help others down the road.
Thanks for reading and listening. Thank you Spirit for this opportunity to pray in this way.
Blessings,
Melissa

Donating $1 can actually change someone's life for the better. Many postings on this site may sound false or unbelievable from people just looking for an easy way out, but if you continue reading, you will understand that this posting is actually sincere and worth the time spent reading.

About two years ago, I began a new profession of teaching English to those of other languages. It has been a rewarding and fruitful experience, but as you may know, teachers do not get paid a high salary especially those teaching abroad to foreign students.

For those unfamiliar with ESL/TEFL (English as a Second Language/Teaching English as a Foreign Language) it allows Native speakers like myself to spread the knowledge of English for those who wish to learn it in their home countries. I have been a Certified ESL/TEFL/TESOL Instructor since 2007 and it has been an enjoyable experience. As you may know, teachers in general do not get paid a high salary and ESL Teachers are paid even less. Being an ESL Teacher often means long hours of work for little pay and travelling to multiple destinations in one day to teach a variety of students. ESL Teachers do not expect to become rich teaching English, they do it for other reasons. I do it for C.A.R.E., four major reasons:

C-Cultures, infusing cultures and learning of yourself with others.

A-Achievement,knowing you have taught someone something in which they can use.

R-Results, the English they learn can be used to advance them in today's global economy.

E-Enrichment, providing a service in which communication can bring people together for years to come.

I am currently teaching in Ukraine, but I have a new teaching job opportunity in a new country that I would like to get to. Not only for the chance of teaching new students in a new culture, but a tremendous demand for language schools which in could turn into a what I have been hoping to do, opening my own language center. I have been planning this for months as the academic year was coming to a close at my current school, what I didn't plan for was my school not fulfilling their obligations in the contract for a year end completion bonus. This completion bonus was a major part of my relocation funds. Even though the summer has past and I continue to work towards my goal, it seems the end is moving farther away at a greater rate of speed than which I am going.

I am not asking for one individual to give the entire amount or pay the relocation expense, but only a small donation. Even if it is the cost of the average fast food meal, it will be greatly appreciated. If everyone just tells one friend and they donate, small donations can be very powerful.

Please visit my website at www.worldestiny.com (currently disabled, please feel free to visit the free web hosting site at http://worldestiny.freetzi.com) and see for yourself. Before my website was disabled it was ranked in the TOP 30 in Google search results for learning English online. I would like to keep it running and eventually open my own learning center. I offer educational games and learning activities among other things for students and teachers. I am just an honest person trying to create a better world through education, one student at a time.

As you can see, I am not simply begging for money or making a story for you to read. But, in reality, a way to help more people other than just myself.

I appreciate your time in reading my request. Thank you.
