This is highly embarassing for me to "cyber beg." Begging seems like such an awful word, but here I am asking for donations of anything! I don't care if it's 0.25 cents or $1. Anything helps.

I'm a struggling graphic designer in need of a new desktop Machintosh. I'm aiming to raise $1300 to buy a new iMac computer so that I can start designing to complete my portfolio and start applying for work. My last computer failed on me during finals in school. Thanks to my school's computer lab, I was able to finish my work and graduate. That was back in NYC. I couldn't afford living there on my own and had to come to a smaller town to live with parents. I worked minimum wage retail to gain some money, but the physical stress forced me to stop working due to muscle weakness problem I have. A medical affliction caused by a tumor that has been affecting my energy and skeletal/muscle strength for about 7 years. It was hard getting through school with my condition. It was twice as hard having to work on my feet for hours in a retail environment.

Double my misfortune, I live in a place where jobs are hard to come by. A small town which has a lot of developing to do and jobs are far between. I need a car to travel to the nearest grocery store and can't depend on parents to transport me everywhere. This is why a job is so imperative. I'd like to feel fulfilled knowing I'm doing something for my future and earning money to buy my needs. I wish I had the equipment to start looking for work.

I want an iMac more than anything in the world. If I had my iMac, I could update my portfolio, do some online freelance work and help my parents with some bills. I could start applying for jobs from home and not have to rely on my neighbor's iPad to browse the internet. Whenever my family goes to the mall in the weekends, I pass by our local Apple store and I see people walking out of the store with large boxes containing their brand new iMac's, Macbook Pro's or expensive iPad's...and I get angry.

Yes, I know it sounds terrible and I know not everyone buying a computer is a rich business mogul or an overpampered kid whose parents can buy them whatever they want, and they never have to worry about whether they could afford it or not. But it hurts me to know I'm in such a position, that although I am an adult who should be paying her parent's bills, I can't even help myself because I'm unemployed. No thanks to my stupid weak body that can't take a lot of physical strain, no thanks to ending up in a town where I can't get anywhere without having to walk at least two miles, no thanks to not having my computer...

My name is not Amelia. That is just a screen name because I am too embarassed to reveal my real name. I'd be so grateful to anyone that can help me reach my $1300 goal. I know Mac's are expensive, but they are the industry standard in what I do. I would like a desktop because they are durable and longer lasting. They can also take a lot processing power for the heavy graphic work I do. If you can find it in your time to spare any change .25 cents, $1, $5, I'll be grateful 'till eternity.

Anyone who donates, be kind to leave an email so that I can send you something in return for your favor.

Thank you and God bless,

My name is Aristides I am 28 years old from Greece !
My country (as you probably know )is in crisis from 2009 , but this year is the most difficult for Greek people !!!
Government wants from us to pay again and again and every time ask for more with taxes but the same time 20% of Greeks are unemployment and probably this rate will be more than 20% by the end of 2012 !
Even these who have jobs they reserve the minimum from their jobs (about 600 euro and the bill for a small apartment in Greece is about 500 euro per month and most of the jobs are part time so that means about 300 euro per month ...... so imagine a family with 1 or 2 kids ....),
I am within this 20% no job and lot of things to pay for ! The most important is that due to this situation I can not by food any more so I am waiting for my last supplies of food to end and then nothing ...just nothing without job I will be no longer available to go and buy something to eat !
Please help me by giving me any amount of money you want just to buy some food until I can find a job !!! even my internet connection is a wifi from my neighbor...
I really wish to leave this country but even this needs money .... we are like prisoners in Greece with the illusion of freedom ....
...Please....

Please help us save our neighbor's home. She is 78 and has no next of kin. She lives alone and has fallen on hard times due to the economy. She is so kind, always looking out for everyone in the neighborhood, but she is ashamed to ask for the help she needs to pay her mortgage.

My roommate and I want to do something kind for her, so we beg you to donate money to help save her home. Like everyone else, we only have so much we can give on our own. But, with the donations from the community we can positively impact our neighbor's life with a meaningful gift and alleviate this great stress.

Please help us give a kind lady peace of mind and donate what you can. No amount is too small. We appreciate your generosity and support!

Hi I am struggling as I owe a garage $600.00 as they fixed my car and I am totally diabilled due to cancer and I have had it rough lately as I had one hip replacement due to radiation and recently got my 2nd one. This time around my hip has given me trouble. I have exausted money for gas to travel to get to doctors and again I only get so much a month and I already paid the garage $300. to release my car back to me. I had to borrow money off my neighbor for house supplies. I can't even due my laundry. I wanted to due christmas but I have no money to buy my son gifts. I live alone and just asking help for my car if possible. Thank you

Growing up poor meant that I was not afforded many opportunities as others. Having two alcoholic parents meant they preferred to keep the liquor cabinet stocked than to set up a college fund. While I love my parents dearly, I wish they could have done more to ease the amount of debt I already possess at a young age. At the same time, I know that my experiences have shaped me into the person that I am today. Nonetheless, I have been forced to acquire a significant amount of debt and am asking for assistance to have this debt paid down. As a child, I had to work hard to earn money for things that I wanted, often cutting neighbor's yards for money. I started working at a fast food restaurant at 15 to earn more money and have been working ever since. When I finished high school, I knew that if I wanted to break free from the shambles of poverty, I would have to attend college. Without any resources at my disposal, except for the small amount of savings I had, I was forced to finance through student loans. Four years later, I was a cum laude graduate, but had over $50,000 in debt. I know this debt is necessary for me to attain my goal of financial security for myself and future family. Still, assistance to get this debt paid off would be very much appreciated. I do not make excuses nor do I ask for handouts. I am employed in Washington, DC and working hard to gain success. Still, the debt is overbearing and a constant reminder of how much more I have to work. Living in Washington means my living expenses are incredibly high and therefore I have had to defer my loans for another year - the compounding interest is just adding to the problem. I simply cannot afford the interest right now. I know that one day all these sacrifices will absolutely pay off but in the meantime, I would like to start working towards financial security. I would be forever grateful for any donation that you could make. Thank you in advance and thanks for taking the time to read my short narrative.

Wow... Never thought it would come to this. I am 53 and have never begged in my life. I have a wonderful, beautiful wife, who is dying of cancer. I love her with all my heart and have been working my fingers to the bone to pay for her treatments. I was recently laid off from my union job and my car has broken down, and am having to have a kind neighbor drive my children to school as busses don't run out to where we live. My family doesn't know but our home will be going into foreclosure soon, and my wife and I have sold our wedding rings and her engagement ring to pay for food. We are at the end, please if there is a kind soul left in the world my heart and the well being of my children have been taken from my hands....Please, help....please

Hello, I am the mother of 3 and step-mother of 3. (6 altogether). My husband is on disability because of his back and I lost my job about 2 months ago. We were already living paycheck to paycheck and now i can not even pay my rent or my bills and I'm borrowing a car from my mother. I have been searching churches and everything in my area for possible assistance but everywhere is full or they do not have any more funds for the year. I am in desperate need so i thought i would look online and see what i came across, and this was what I found. I dont know if people really help people like this but I do know that it would be a great blessing if someone did. My children are ages 1, 2, 4, 9, 10 and 13. i have been doing my best to keep us a float but as of now I’m 2 months behind on rent (im sure an eviction will be coming soon), shutoff notice for water bill, no phone besides our safelink phone. We haven’t paid our trash bill in months, so sometimes our neighbor lets us put some with theres but if not it just piles up in our garage. Our gas bill is steady climbing. We have had to sell a lot of our things to pay a little here and there, like to get more time to pay the water bill before they turn it off. My son was accepted to go to preschool for free this year but he can only go a couple days a week because I dont even have the gas money to take him there. Please we really NEED assistance. If there is anyway someone could help us with anything, please contact me. Any little help at all would be greatly appreciated. please. And thank you very much for you time and consideration. …. Even a prayer would be nice…

Well, dont know if I can outdo some of these begs but here I go. I am a single guy. I have 2 mentally challenged foster care people that have lived with me for 11 years, my nephew that is a quadriplegic lives with me(he was paralyzed in a car wreck when he was 15), my mom lives next door in a small apt. and I take care of all her bills(no rent to me, gas, elec., phone). I help my elderly neighbor take care of her yard. All that is the truth. I am not on the way to be homeless, I pay my bills, I am happy and volunteer as much as possible. I got hurt on the job in 2008 but I couldnt fight the bosses lies and threats so have no insurance and not able to work much due to the accident. So what I need is some dental work. I would so much like to smile and not have to hide my teeth. I have 3 or 4 teeth that need work. Would even let the donations go straight to the dentist of your choice in my town. Thanks for taking time to read.

I am your average neighbor. I have a husband, 2 kids & a dog. While I was pregnant with my daughter we were finishing an addition on the house to make room for the new bundle of joy. The expenses were more than we had thought they would be, and now we have a high credit card bill we are having difficulty paying because of the new daycare payments. If you have a little extra and would like to help, my family would be greatful. God bless.

It all started 5 years ago on June 17, 2006. . .a day I will remember for the rest of my life. It was the day before Fathers Day and we were driving with our 14 month old son to his grandmothers house when and SUV ran a stop sign slamming into us causing our vehicle to roll landing upside down. They say my fiance (my sons father) was partially ejected and killed instantly.

He didn't have life insurance, and since we were only engaged, there were no survivors benefits and so it was just me, my 14 month old, two dogs, and an old house built in 1927 and a laundry list of repairs that needed to be done.

After my fiance died, I think a part of me just shut down. There was so much to deal with. . .working full time, being a single parent with no support. All my family lives 6 hours away, and my fiances family never wanted anything to do with us and after the accident all communication stopped and I was alone.

So, I shut the doors to the upstairs of our two bedroom Cape Cod, and made my bed on the Living Room couch so that I could rock my son in his bouncy chair everytime he woke at night. . .on average 4 times a night.

I did the best I could over the years. During all this my Dad was a huge emotional support for me. We talked every day, he encouraged me to stay strong and I did the same for him (he was diagnosed with milodisplastic syndrome in 2005)his blood transfusions really took a toll on him and his physical weakness really depressed him. I know he worried about me alot because I would always call him for advise on how to fix things or ask him questions about car stuff. He was my rock and he died October 4, 2008 from complications with pneumonia. He was buried on his birthday October 8 when he would have been 56.

His death is still hard to handle. My rock my best friend and advisor was gone and now I realized I was truly alone. Not only did I not have anyone to help me with my son, or with the house or the car, but now I didn't have anyone I could really talk to that could just listen and be my guide.

All this happened so suddenly. My now 3 year old son and I stayed up North for a week after my Fathers death. There was a lot of planning and funeral arrangements to be made that during the midst of all this, 6 hours away in my little Cape Cod were the two dogs. . .Joe, a shepard and chow mix, and Rex, a shepard and Rotti mix left to their own devices. All I could do was pray that the damage wouldn't be too terrible.

I tried calling a neighbor to check on the dogs, but in our unexplained absence the dogs became extremely protective of the house and wouldn't let anyone it.

When we finally came home, there was definately a mess. I had to rip up all the carpet by myself the stench was horrible and the dust and dirt under the padding from 10 year old carpet caused more than one sinus infection. After a month I had all the carpet ripped up and have not been able to replace it.

After working and saving and with help from my Mom, in 2009 I was able to hire a Contractor that had been highly recommended to me by a friend of mine. He raved about how great they were and what a good job they did for him. We had a contract for about $19,000. This was to replace all the windows, replace the kitchen cabinets, new countertop, appliances, paint, everything the house needed after being neglected for over 10 years. So they came and painted and left. Six months later they came back with 5 of the 13 windows, installed the windows, but left the casements on the inside open and torn leaving exposed the Lead Paint and the original wood framing. Then in August 2009, they had the kitchen cabinets delivered to my house and they were stored outside on the porch. I called and called to find out when they would be put in, and no response. They stayed outside through the Fall and through the winter when we got three feet of snow and I called and begged and sent text messages and one day their phone number was disconnected. Then in June 2010 they called me!! They would come install the cabinets. So they came and tore out the stove and the kitchen sink and installed the cabinets and put a slab on granite down so I could have a work area and said they would be back with the stove and dishwasher and sink. They never came back. So I had kitchen cabinets and no stove, no sink, no dishwasher. Then in July, Rex, the Rotti Shepard mix got really sick. The vet said he was starting kidney failure. They kept him and did IV treatment and got his kidneys functioning and they said he need a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice. I had no stove. I tried calling the contractors I yelled, I begged, I sent text messages and finally out of desparation I went and bought the cheapest stove I could just to be able to boil water for my dog.

The dog survived, but his survival was short lived. In October 2010 on the anniversary of my Fathers death, I had to put the dog to sleep. He was suffering from the samething my father had. He couldn't produce red blood cells anymore and would have to live off of blood transfusions. One of the hardest choices I've ever made.

Now here we are in 2011. Memorial Day I almost lost my now 6 year old son in a near drowning incident at a friends pool. Thank God the husband knew CPR and was able to revive him. He stayed overnight in ICU for monitoring but he is now a happy healthy 1st grader.

Me. . .I'm barely keeping it together. I can't afford to take care of my home. The carpet was never replaced and there is a horrible draft in the Winter and the Lead Paint is still exposed. The upstairs windows are leaking and there are water spots on the ceiling. There is a 4" crack in the basement foundation wall that goes all the way down the wall and across the basement floor to the other side of the house. I was told that the footing is slipping and that it was only a matter of time before the house caved. The gutters are falling off the house from age and the deck rails are falling off. I fear for our safety, but mostly, I'm afraid for my son. I want to give him a safe and healthy environment, but I need help.

Please, if there is anyone out there that can help us, I would be eternally grateful. In the meantime, I will keep praying and belive that everything happens for a reason.

I don't like begging like this. I'm sooo embarrassed. We moved to a great new apartment 3 months ago. My husband has been without work for 2 years, well actually in and out of work. I have stayed by his side the whole time. We have 1 son named israel. He is 6. I had two jobs and was able to move my family out of the "hood". A neighbor got shot. We got a nice place then I lost a job. Everything went downhill. Our car is about to go out, its a dodge neon. I had saved enough to get us one, little did I know they sold us a flooded car. Should have known c,ause it was right after the hurricane. I got loans to help but now I'm trying to pay those. Which got me behind on rent. I can't give up. I need help rent is due on the 3rd. Please if anyone is reading can you spare anything? I'm sorry to beg. I'm holding my head up high. School starts soon and I don't want my son to miss a good school. If we don't pay rent we get evicted and have to move in a hotel which we would be considered homeless and I don't know if he can still go to the good school. Please anyone? Anne

I am not a poor person. There are probably many other people on this site who need this money more than I do. I am a student who recently graduated from college and like many others, I am having difficulty finding a good job to support myself. Recently, my car (which has been a godsend), blew a headgasket. I have no other way to get to my job and I'm currently "bumming" rides from a neighbor but I have already asked the repair shop to start the repairs in either case. I am looking at a repair cost of about $2,300 dollars total. I know that you don't know me by looking at this beg, and that you might not be inclined to donate because of this. But if you feel pity for me, even enough to donate one dollar, I'd sure appreciate it. I am indebted to those of you even reading this beg. You've already proven that you care about other's problems. Thank you for your time.

I was in an accident which left me with my left side crushed. I am going through the process of getting Social Security.

I have 6 different doctors I have to go to. I have to have my neighbor take me to doctors because I don't have a car.

I haven't worked in almost 2 years. I need to pay rent which is only $300 a month, but it feels like a million when you don't have it.

I am also in need of regular supplies like laundry soap, toilet paper, money to wash clothes. I haven't been able to wash my clothes since Feb. 3, 2011.

Could you Please Help, anything will be greatly helpful.

I thank you very much, and God Bless You.

We are doing this for our little neighbor named Maya. She is 2 and half years old. She was born as a deaf due to some rare abnormality in her inner ears. She can't hear or speak.

To recover, she needs a cochlea replacement surgery which costs $15,590 here in India. With the help of our residents association we have managed to collect $4,454. We are looking into all sorts of other sources. Each penny will help in a situation like this.

We are waiting for the day when Maya can go and hug her mother when she calls her 'Maya....'

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.

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.

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...

I feel lower than low today, because the first time in my life I resort to charity, but its the only thing that I have left to try. A short while ago everything was fine. I was not rich by any means, but we got by on hard work and low expenses. For many years my father saved up to help me get an education and I went to university for my first year. Then these holidays I came home for the first time in a year. The next day while we were out visiting family, an extention leet shorted out and set our livingroom carpet on fire. We were phoned by the neighbor and told that our house was on fire. When we got there there, there was nothing left to be saved. Ive never seen my father cry openly until that day. That was the house we all grew up in, and the house he built with his own two hands. He is to proud a man to ask for help and he would probably kill me if he found out im posting this. He and my mom are currantly living in the neighbours caravan on our lot with the rubble of our entire past, while im staying with a friend. All my fathers work was in that house, all his tools. He has now way of getting a job at his age and im not having any luck as im a freshly graduated matrick, with a uncompleted univercity record. I have prayed to God, each and every day my whole life, but I dont know if there can be a God anymore. Please send anything you can spare, until I can find a way to get us back on our feet.If you fear that this is a scam(I know that most are) Email me at JJStander8@gmail.com and ill send you pictures of whats left of our house. Thank you in advance.

i was the good son, i never smoked or drank or did drugs or ran around with women. when my parents were too ill to care for themselves, i didnt run out on them. for almost 25 years i cared for their every need. dad had diabetes,heart disease,high blood pressure. mom had emphysema,heart disease,edema and was legally blind. my father died in 2003 he just died on the dialysis machine. leaving me and mom to survive on one social security check of $1035. our home was sold to a gangbenger landlord who threatened to throw my mother out if she didn't pay $1400 rent. my mother died on march 8 2009 leaving me here. if your asking why have i not tried to get a job, i have been trying,but there are just no jobs. if no one helps me i will freeze to death on a park bench. no neighbor will take me in,all shelters are filled, no recruiter will take a chance and hire me, and i cant get food stamps or welfare because of the few dollars my mother left behind for me. if no one helps me my life will come to an end. i'm not a lazy person! my parents were a 24/7 job. cooking,cleaning,washing,scrubbing the bathroom with my bare hands until it shined. talking with doctors, and arguing with Medicare over medicine that my mother needed to breath. running errands all over our neighborhood,arguing with the druggist over prices,shopping for groceries. i did it all for my parents. i never asked anything in return. i was happy with just a warm bed to sleep in,clothes on my back,and 3 square meals. now i live in fear of my landlord, what will he do to me when i cant pay the rent? i go to bed hungry because i cant afford to buy food, i starve eating one meal a day,so that i can pay rent. my life has been shattered to pieces,and if no one helps me it will come to an end. Please, if you have any mercy in you,sent me what you can afford to give

I am not the needy in far-away Africa or India. I am the needy of America and I need help right away.

My name is Levi and I have turned to asking for donations on the Internet as a last resort. I have lost my income, have no savings at all, no property, no assets, vehicle, etc. I have a mental disability which has hindered me from keeping / finding jobs. My combination of Asperger's Syndrome, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and ADHD have had a potent effect on my ability to keep a job, resulting in my being dismissed from around 3 dozen jobs in the 12 years that I have been working. I am applying for social security disability benefits and IF I qualify (which I will probably not), then it will be 4-5 more months until I start to receive benefits. I do not want my body to be found laying in a ditch somewhere so please give me the money I need to pay my bills for at least these several months.

I'm 31, live in Lynnwood and this is my first time posting to ask for money. But now without any income or people to ask for help, worst case scenario is that I will die on the streets. Next best scenario is that I will lose everything and get a bunk in a homeless shelter. But I have been quite happy to have my own apartment and my own furniture for the first time in my life. I don't want to lose everything I have worked so hard for, plus living in a shelter will make it next to impossible to find a job, on top of my pre-existing conditions.

I don't want material objects like your couch, sofa, TV, CDs, bicycle, bikes, etc. I just need a donation from a kind-hearted person who believes in helping those in need. God says to help your neighbor and that no good deed goes unnoticed. I believe in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness but without my life the others would be impossible. Please show me that Americans are indeed the most giving people in the world and give me this much needed stepping stone.

I can show you a copy of my bank statement or my tax return showing I only earned $8,000 in 2009, or you can call me directly so you know I am for real. You can donate to me by Paypal email:mthehonest@yahoo.com or you can even meet me in person if you don't trust that I am who I say I am. Thank you and may God bless you, from Levi.
