I live in a bad area. I tried to help someone else and I got robbed. The guy was high on crack and I didn't know. I was going to help him out with a few bucks but he pushed his way into my apartment and sat his ass down on my bed. When I tried to get him out, he threatened me and assaulted me. He went through my drawers and took the only money that I had. Could anyone help me to get that money back? I'm just asking for fifty right now, but anything helps.

I made more money on a street corner with a sign than I ever made from this site. I never even got one dollar from this site. That's right, I'm pan handeling now. I guess that no one trusts anyone on this site, and ya, there are lazy people who use this site; however, I really am going to be homeless. For godsake, just give me enough money to buy a tent.

I have a friend with two children. Her and I are both struggling with bills. Her children need food to eat. We need money to buy food. Could anyone help?

I know this is a longshot as I'll certainly not be the only one in this position but basically I'm just a young, single person, trying to support myself & pay for my flat alone. I might not seem like a worthy case as I'm healthy, have no children etc but it's still a total struggle to get by at times, especially in this economic climate. The main reason I'd like to raise money, other than a bit more financial stability is because my mum has helped me out a lot over the past few years & I've relied on her a lot more than I should have, her hours at work have recently been cut meaning she'll be struggling as well & I'd really like to make a contribution towards paying back all the money she's leant me etc. If you could help at all, even just $1 or even less, every little donation would be appreciated. I know you're probably used to seeing these stories & you don't know me personally but you've no idea how grateful I'd be!

I will start off by thanking you for your time to read this. I am having car problems and the bill to fix it is beyond my means. I have been laid off from a factory job and I am now working a min wage job. I am hitting the pavement trying to look for a better paying job but its getting hard without a car. The total bill is 751.36 to fix my head gasket and thats if the head is not cracked. I dont like to beg for money but my family needs your help. Again thanks for your time.

I'm 23 years old, living on my own in northern canada. I have been self sufficient since the age of 16, and not without struggle.

I'm currently attending post secondary education, but my financial aid does not cover much more than part of the cost of my tuition and books, with nothing left over for food and clothing and medication.

I struggle with Chronic Complex PTSD, SOcial and general anxiety, major depression and am being monitored for bipolar- all of this caused me to lose my job that i had held for three years.

As you can imagine, things are pretty rough, but i try to hold my head up and get through each day, hoping one day i can catch a break.

So please, if you can, find it in your heart to help me out, and i will be forever grateful.

I am a mother of two ages 1 and 3. I have had a string of bad luck for two months. My hours got cut until the middle of January and on top of that my car got repoed and my wages are being garnished because of unpaid hospital bills. I really need help until my hours are up. I am almost $450 short on my rent and utilities. I cant even guarantee I can keep food in the house.. PLEASE HELP. I want to keep a roof over my kids head at least. My rent is Due December 15, 2011 at the latest or I'm getting evicted......PLEASE HELP

My sister, her husband and 2 children are a christian family who live in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. They have lost everything because of an electrical fire in the walls of their home. Their home was destroyed and they did not have home owners insurance. What wasn't destroyed from the fire was destroyed from water damage. They are very grateful that they all survived as are their families as well. They are struggling though. It has been 3 months and they haven't gotten very far. They are living with her husbands aunt and uncle right now in a 2 bedroom home. That is 6 people all crammed in a 2 bedroom home. My sister had to quit her job because at this time she cannot afford child care. They applied for government assistance and turned down saying that my brother in law brings in too much money. The only help they've gotten thus far was from family friends and red cross! I was speaking with my sister on the phone earlier this evening and she was crying. I asked her what the hardest part of all of this is and she said not having a place to call home. She said she never in a million years thought she would have to go through something like this and wouldn't wish it on her worst enemy. After we got off the phone I was watching my programs on t.v and was trying to think of ways I could help them out and got to thinking about asking people online for donations to help her. I called and asked her and at first she was hesitant but after talking to her more I got her to agree. I figure there has to be some angels out there. It doesn't matter if all you can donate is 1 penny. Every penny adds up and it's killing me to see my sister and her family going through this. She also asked me to ask anyone who reads this to please pray for them ! Thank you all for reading this and God bless. Also thank you to anyone who has anything they can spare. I have set up my pay pal account and each week I am going to go in and transfer whatever was donated over to my brother in laws checking account right from paypal. Again thank you and God bless !

As I lie here, flat on my back, with the laptop perched on top of me, unable to move. It has been like this for 3 days now, my lower back is in suck agonising pain, the first 2 days was worse, I could not stand up, or walk at all, confined to lying on the floor for 24 hours, and painkillers.

Yesterday I decided to try lying on the sofa, that worked better, the painkillers left me with nausea, diarrhoea, and feeling very sick but at least I had relief from pain for a little while.

The house is in terrible mess, kitchen dishes everywhere, wish I could move around and do my housework, I wish I could sit up and eat, and not have to be bent over on my hands and knees or flat on my back trying to eat.

I wonder what the best thing to do is, do I go to the doctor, or the physiotherapist? How will I get there? How can I pay for it, there is only $2 in my bank account, until my sickness benefit get paid in 3 days time, can I manage to work around to free up some funds for this emergency medical need.

I wrote out a grocery list, 9 items, total cost $49.00; I work out my budget for next week:
Income: Sickness Benefit - $260.00
Outgoings:
Rent $260 can only pay $160
Phone $10.00
Internet $12.00
Power $15.00
Transport $20.00
Therapist $40.00

Total: $257.00

I realised I cannot afford them, will have to ask for food grant if I want to get groceries, I need to find a cheaper place to live, but can’t find anywhere within city Region, have to look further out, to the rural areas for anything under $200 per week.

I also need to find a part time job, but my searches and applications have not been successful so far, no one wants to hire someone with Osteoarthritis, and depression.

All day I search the internet for some idea, some open door somewhere, to start my own business, or find some work for a few hours a week, that would give me a chance to break out of the current situation, to change my life, to make a fresh start.

Lying here unable to do much, my mind starts thinking, thinking and more thinking, I reflect on my life, I take stock of where I am now, how I got here and where I want to be. I am living in a substandard rental home that I cannot afford the rent for, on a sickness benefit, in therapy to deal with 15 years of childhood sexual and physical abuse.

15 years of beatings and torture has left me physically, emotionally and psychologically scarred.

The psychologist is helping me to deal with the emotional and psychological, the painkillers sometimes helps with the pain of the physical, but the scars and injuries are always there.
I don’t want to live in this state, I want to break free, make a new start, but how?

I cannot work as a Computer support analyst or a caterer anymore, because the osteoarthritis diminishes my ability to cope with physical work and movements for long. I have tried finding part time work, just a few hours a week, but there are not many jobs out there, and when I do apply for any, they do not want me.

If only I could get my driver’s licence, a little place I could afford the rent for, and a little car, and retrain, I could get back to work and change my life, get a second chance at a normal life…that is all I ask.

What I need to change my life

Re-training = $4,000.00
Driver Licence = $600.00
Car = $2,000.00
Moving costs $1100.00
Business start = $7,000.00

Total $14700.00

I don’t drink, smoke, or go out, I don’t go to café’s or buy coffees or cans of coke. My only outgoings are the basic necessities of life, one day I would love to be able to do these things, but now my goal is to get to a better place, higher place, out of the gutter that I am in, and start feeling like human again, to feel worthy of life.

I am ashamed to that it has come to this. I need help so badly it seems so unreal... I don't know how it go this bad...
I am a 25 years old and I have a 2 year old, who brings such happiness to me. I rent a house for $300.00 a month. seem good deal right. That's what I thought while I was pregnant with my son. I had to move out of a apartment complex because they upped the rent to $850.00 a month for a 1bed/1bath and I still had to pay all the utilities. That was coming out way to high for me, know I had a little on on the way. I canceled my contract 3 months before it was up and I go A huge penalty bill for that, but I had no choice. I packed every thing I owned and move to a really really bad part of the city. It was 2am so I just went in with a blanked and a pillow and crashed on a couch that was left behind by some Tweakers. When I woke up I started to bawl. The front door was not Even a front door, it was a temp door that you find a a construction site. Th wall between to living room and kitchen was gone and the support beams were being held by a 2x4, The ceiling was sagging. the kitchen had water damage and the celling was dripping black water. The counter tops was pieces of plywood with wallpaper nailed to it. The bath hall bathroom was nasty like "stuff" all on the tub side wall and spoons that looked burnt? not sure on that but there were needles there. the three rooms not so bad a little drywall work and done. that master bath (if that was what was supposed to be) was backed up black mold? and something dead int the shower part. I called the lad lord and he said "you signed to contract knowing what was wrong". I reminded him of what he told me you said a LITTLE bit of work, Like little patches here and there... he told me you signed it and it said you were to fix up the house for part of the rent and pay 300 for the last bit. fine any how. the whole time I have been here it has be fixing on the house and trying to nurse a baby and work to pay the bills. 2 years down the line the roof leaks every time it rains, I landlord was so kind to replace toe swamp cooler for an AC. That gave me a $900.00 bill, because the house has so many cracks and leaks, it was cooling the out side world too. The hall bathroom tub has a cracked pipe under it and the wall around the spigot started to degrade. the cracked pipe leaks in to the master bathroom and floods part of the master bedroom. I could not pay my gas bill so I had to turn it off, but I boil our bath water to bathe. Work has slowed down so bad and I used all my unemployment to barely keep my head above the water. Now that it is gone... my rent is backed up to 1200.00 I still have to pay 900.00 for electric. I applied for food stamps but budgets had been cut back for the state that I get 150.00 for the month. so I applied for WIC and it gives us a little bit (two gal of milk, a loaf of bread, and 6.00 worth of veggies along with the cheese and peanut butter) I went and got a food box but there was not much ( a bit of pork, 6 mystery cans, and crunchy hamburger buns) all this was to last us for the month. I had to cut back to one meal a day so my son can have his 3 meals and 2 snacks. but lately I have gone with out eating but only once every two days. It hurts bad to do that. I lost 50lbs from this, I mean I looked at it positively, I kinda needed it. but my clothing dont fit any more, they hang on my body or fall off my waist and Now that winter is coming along... I cant get fall/winter clothing for my son, I am okay, I guess I have coats that work for me, He dose not fit any thing that he had last winter. I feel like I am a horrible mother, that cant even get her child clothing and I cant lose our home even tho it is old, run down, leaky, and falling apart. It is still a place that we can be safe for the elements of the outside world. I Have tried asking my mother to help us but she is having a hard time, too.
I am sorry to bother and ask y'all for some help. I am so very sorry, But I have to do what I can to help my son, so he dose not have to worry about when his next meal is or if he is going to be warm enough. I want him to say innocent as long as possible. No child should have to grow up so fast and leave their childhood behind. He is to young to know how harsh and hard the real world is. I want to see him smile over the smallest things at life, It makes all this worth it... for him. Please anything will help us. I will be so ever thankful and know that there still are people out there that have a heart and would show it to the world. Thank You for your time and Thank You for being so kind enough to read this. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.

My husband and I are in need of help. In the last 6 months, I have had 2 paycuts and my paychecks are half and sometimes less than what they used to be. To make matters worse, my husband lost his job of 13 years. He has filed for unemployment, but it will take 6-8 weeks in review, and even then he may not qualify. He has found a job recently and is not expecting a paycheck for another 2 weeks. We have 2 children, ages 4 and 9, and are in desperate need of help as we have fallen behind in our bills, including or mortgage, car payments, and utilities. We are at risk of losing our home and possibly car repossession, which my husband needs to get to his new job. We are in a hole that we need help getting out of. Anything will help.

I want to thank anyone who is willing to help us in our time of need.

My mom has kicked me out due to her being unemployed and unable to support me, and has given custody to my grandma who has alzheimers and is also unemployed.. She gets a social security check every month but most of the time she either loses it before she gets it cashed, or after she cashes it, she loses the money... I can't live in their house because it's falling apart and there's mold all in the house because they can't keep up with the maintenance of the house, and I have asthma. I don't have any other family to ask for help, and all I want is to finish high school and somehow get into college. I was a straight A student before my mom kicked me out and school starts here in a little over a week. I also had to enroll in school as homeless because I don't currently have an established residence, and my grandma can't even get up to the school to sign my paperwork. So they had to put me down as homeless so I could sign my own papers. I have no money to even buy basic school supplies like pens and paper, so any donations would help A LOT. I'm only seventeen years old and shouldn't have to be dealing with all this on my own, its too much. I've never asked for much of anything from anyone, and all I'm asking for now is money for school needs... Please help.

So I'm not going to sit here and lie about having daunting heart problems or am homeless. I'm just a normal 16 year old who lives in the suburbs and needs a new guitar. It's been my dream since I was about seven years old to be a musician. I have simply run out of money to take lessons. After I've divulged so far into learning how and what music it is, I've come to appreciate it like none other. I just can't afford to chase the dream. A spontaneous gift would touch my heart and put the gift of music back into my hands :) Even if you can't afford to donate anything I appreciate your time you have taken to read this. Theirs alot of people in this world who are more fortunate then others. Even if you decide to donate to someone else, you really can better someones life with the click of a button :)

Hello, my name is Jacob. I'm 26 years old and recently moved back to a small town in Alabama, from Charlotte NC.
I lived in Charlotte for over 6 years while I attended college and made a life in the city. I worked and was a full
time student and barely made it by but always seemed to make it, thanks to hard work and amazing friends I didn't know
until I live in the Queen City. After graduating college I was forced to moved back home after the full time job I had,
was cut to one day a week. It was extremely short notice and I had nothing saved to live off of, and despite my efforts
I was unable to find another job right away.

But the bills kept coming in, most importantly rent and power.
That was the reason I was forced to move back to Alabama with family, living my life behind. It's been months
now and I still can't get ahead. I have student loan payments I had family cosign for so I have to keep them up, and the
job market in this town almost imaginary. Especially for someone with a degree in graphic art. SO what I'm asking is for
anyone that can spare anything, a dollar, change, whatever it adds up, to helping me get back to where I was happiest I'd
appreciate it.

I have a plan to start a photography/design business with one of my friends I just have to make it back and it doesn't look
like I can do it alone. Also I know there are people in more need than I am. All I can say is that if this helps and can get
back to where I want/need to be in my life, believe me I'll be paying if forward and helping others. Thank you for your time
if your reading this, and any help you may be able to offer.
