Family of5 in a motel room

Posted by needyfamily609 on 2012-02-05 23:58:37

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Jean and I am a mother of three. I am married to William, for 4 years and we are NJ natives. I am a caregiver for my 60 year old mother who was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Failure in January of 2011.

In June of 2010 my mother came from Michigan to live with me with the intention of helping me and my husband by watching our children during our working hours. My husband and I both work very long hours, and the children would have been required to spend long periods of time alone. So my mother came to help us fill the gap. In October of 2010, my mother’s health took a turn for the worse and it was continually getting worse as the year progressed. By January of 2011 my mother was unable to stand for any length of time and was always short of breath.

On February 10th I admitted my mother to the emergency room @ ACMC/Mainland. She was immediately diagnosed with kidney failure. She was admitted to ICU and on February 12th she had a cardiac arrest, due to toxic levels of magnesium, in her system. My mother suffered a sustained brain injury and to this day has a deficit she will have to live with forever. This deficit has taken away her ability to drive, live on her own, or be without some type of supervision.

My family suffered an extreme financial crisis that is ongoing and increasingly more devastating. I was out of work on FMLA for 8 weeks without pay. I was given $1200 in disability payments. I was allowed back to work, but with a significant decrease in pay and a change of position.

We have fallen behind in our bills in a catastrophic way. It seems the more we pay the more we owe. In fact, for the last week we have been without running water. Our gas has been off for three weeks and we use that for hot water, heat, and cooking. Our bank fees for the month of September have been astronomical (well over $400) for NSF charges and Service fees. This is just spiraling out of control. The children attend a local charter school and Pleasantville High school. Each child only has one pair of shoes and one uniform because I can’t get ahead of the curve to get them additional ones. The little ones need their school logo embroidered on the uniforms but that cost more than the shirt did.

We feel helpless and without some type of help we will continue to be a homeless family of six. We are currently living in a motel on the edge of our town. This is a pay by the hour type of place but it is the only place that will charge us by the week and will allow one of use to sleep on the floor. We are soliciting any type of help you can give. Please be mindful that we are hard working members of society. We have been working since we got out of high school. We are not beggars and we are willing to give back in the form of community service.
All I know is that we need help! Immediately or we’ll be past saving!
Thank you,
Jean Elam
Atlantic Auto Group, 08234

Hello,



As a Wish Ambassador for Wish Upon A Hero I am in need of DONATION I'm asking for $1 or $2~ stickers~ stamps~ envelopes all sizes~small toys~coloring books~crayons~dollar store gift cards~WalMart gift cars



No wish too large. No hero too small.
Wish Upon A Hero was first conceived by founder Dave Girgenti shortly after the September 11th attacks on New York City. From his home in NJ, Girgenti watched as thousands of people posted pictures of missing loved ones throughout the city. He thought there had to be a faster, more organized way to connect people in need. That was the moment in which the idea was born.

Less than five years later, Hurricane Katrina created a similar catastrophic event in New Orleans where hundreds of thousands of people needed immediate help. This time it wasn't just about locating loved ones. Hurricane victims needed everything from healthcare services, food, fresh water, clothing and shelter.

It became clear that Wish Upon a Hero needed to become more than an idea. Over the next two years, Girgenti exhausted every resource at his disposal to create an online community that offered a platform for people to help people. Working under the mantra of “No wish too large and no hero too small,” Girgenti created www.wishuponahero.com, which launched in September 2007. This is a one of a kind service designed to connect those in need with people that can truly change their lives!

PLEASE HELP!

Please help, for my Girls

Posted by FormyGirls on 2011-11-06 19:58:54

I had 13yrs with the Major utility in NJ. Was laid-off. My Wife then left me because of it, and took our two girls (6&9yrs old). Then she couldn't cope any more, and took her own life. Now it's me and my Girls, and my Unemployment ran out. I get Foodstamps, and that's all they will give, because of Survivor Benefits from SS. What we get from it covers the rent, and that's it. It's actually a little short every month. I am afraid I will lose them, and I am all they have now. I have to leave the room when they ask me for money for a Bookfair at school and I don't have it, cause I will break down. I have to be strong for them, they have been thru enough already. It's just hard, and they deserve better. Any little thing will help, until I find a job. Any job, I don't care at this point. I just don't want to lose them. I have everything to prove what I have said (Death Certificate) I just don't know where to turn.

I can’t believe my life has come to this. First and foremost, it is important to know that I am a hardworking, responsible individual. I love going to work every day as a child and family therapist knowing that I have the ability to help make positive changes in others’ lives. I also, for whatever reason, feel very uncomfortable asking for help. I don’t think I have ever asked anyone for financial help in my life, let alone a “donation”. I was always taught that if you want something…. YOU WORK FOR IT! I have had a job since I was 13 yrs old and it taught me to appreciate the value of the dollar and hard work. But what happens when you physically can’t? My values speak to who I was, who I am and who I want to be and why I am worthy of your help.
• Be respectful, giving, loving and kind to others.
• Treat others as you would want to be treated.
• First and foremost dedication to my family and friends
• If you want something, you have to work for it because nothing in life is free
• Work hard and you can achieve anything you set your mind to
• If you believe in something, be passionate about it
• Love what you do for work – Life is too short
• Do not be selfish, but selfless – be there or give to others as much as you can
Resilient for many years –struggling through a childhood of undiagnosed ADHD - low self esteem, disruptive and impulsive behaviors, poor attention, disorganization, ambivalence about making life decisions, flunking out of college my freshman yr at 18 yo (which led to me having to pay any subsequent schooling on my own), moving and attending a new school at the beginning of my 8th grade year with a scoliosis brace that had to be worn 23 hours a day, having major surgery at 14 yo and missing 3 months of my freshman yr. As an adult, moving from NJ to Ma away from my family who I was extremely close to due to a marriage that didn’t work, losing my father to cancer and watching him waste away in front of me and feeling helpless. I did return to school as an adult committed to helping others and figuring out my own insecurities. Over 7 yrs (25-32 yrs old) received my bachelors degree from Rutgers University with high honors and my masters in clinical social work from Columbia University also with honors.
I know what I am capable of and I know how much I have to give to others. But at this point in my life, I also need to be honest with myself about my physical limitations.
When I was 12 yo I was diagnosed with a severe case of scoliosis and had to wear a body brace for 1 ½ yrs. Bad timing, I guess… I had just moved and was starting my 8th grade yr in a new school. Two yrs later (1983) I had major reconstructive surgery (14 hours, in a body cast 6 mos, couldn’t ride in a car or sit for more than 15 mins a day for 3 mos) and my spine was fused from T3 to L4 – all at 14 yo! Over the years, my back problems were just “part of my life”. Now at 43 I am disabled and in need of another major surgery due to collapsed discs that are compressing the nerves in my lower back. The pain I endure is affecting my ability to sit, stand or walk to any period of time. I had to leave my last job as an outpatient therapist a couple of years ago due to my inability to commit to a schedule because of my pain. I have been taking pain pills, which I do not want to become addicted to and have worked out an arrangement with a caring chiropractor. Not to mention at work I have kids, teens and their families who depend on me to help them, some of who I don’t charge because they can’t afford it. So, my schedule is minimal, my bills are racking up and I continue to try to help people sometimes at my own expense (physical). I have no health insurance because I can’t afford it, I live in a 800 square foot apartment that I share and I drive a 1998 Nissan Maxima that has over 200,000 miles on it! I don’t have “things” because I don’t NEED material things. It kills me to ask for help, especially monetary. It’s hard for me to accept help but I have no problem giving, lending or helping other people. My friends say that I give “too much”, but I feel that if I have it to give or I can do something to help someone else be happier, less stressed or more comfortable than I will. And I’ve been taken advantage of many times because of this – for example, 3 yrs ago, I lent a co-worker $5000 to assure that as a single mother she would have a dependable car for her and her 3 kids. She has not paid me anything yet. Gave another friend my car for 2 weeks to use because her car was in the shop and she couldn’t afford a rental. It was definitely an inconvenience, having to walk to and from work a mile, having to way to run errands until the weekend, etc. But I did it because I knew how much it meant to her and how much it helped. I then find myself thinking … who will be my angel when I need one?? And I do…. Please, please help!! I don’t have a choice right now. I need surgery, physical therapy/personal training in order to continue working for others. Thank you so much for any contribution you can make! God Bless!

Help Stephenson get into Bible college

Posted by brmfam on 2011-08-28 11:58:49

Most of you dont know my brother in Christ and very good friend Stephenson Coffin. But to know him is to love him. I am led to start this financial request, because Stephenson needs your help. Stephenson ranks right up there with the best graduates of my churchs youth group for the past 8 years, from the time I started helping as a leader.

Stephenson just graduated from H.S. and God has been leading him toward his first choice in colleges at the Word of Life Bible Institute up in Schroon Lake, NY. This choice in education (a very good choice, I might add), is well beyond the financial means of the family, even with financial aid and loans that have been approved.

I sent out a prayer a month or so ago for Stephenson, and indeed there have been some positive results with my churchs generous donation of funds to Stephenson for college. But time is of the essence, and we are now at a point where I am asking each and every person invited to chip in $3.00 to help pay for Stephensons dream to attend WOL to come true. School starts for most of this semesters students on September 15th, and money is due by that date. Stephenson cannot start without sufficient funds. He is on a month to month pay schedule which requires $650 per month over and above his already received grants and loans.

The key here, along with prayer, is to send this on to others by e-mail. The numbers invited will grow exponentially, and if everyone spends a little time (and a small amount of money, (if you are led to so do), Stephenson could easily reach his needed goal. Please be assured that any money received over and above his needs for attending WOL will be donated by the family to St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital. Here is the link for this worthy cause.

Educating Myself

Posted by Keili on 2011-05-19 20:58:28

I am a second-year college student living on my own. I cannot claim independent status although I am not living at home because of certain stipulations I do not met (ie. owning an apartment, etc). Since I am techinically a 'dependent student' I cannot take out further loans through my FAFSA and private loans would require a cosigner, which I don't have. I transfered from Rutgers (in NJ) because the tuition was too high and I would not be able to cover the remaining costs as I am an out of state student. I would love to attend City College and find that it ould actually be a better fit for me and my career goals. I would be able to pay tuition through the payment plan (it is less than $3000 for the semester); however, I cannot pay for housing or a meal plan. I've researched and found that living off campus would be the most cost-effective plan because the cost of rent ($925-1395/ month), food ($200/month), and travel ($52/month-student discounted price) would still be less than on campus housing and meal plan costs which would have to be paid in full at the beginning of the semester. For my first year I need about $25,000 including the costs for summer session. I am double majoring so in order to graduate on time I'd need the summer session. Please help. Anything would be appreiciated. Thank you.

I'll do anything

Im only 26 years old. I lost my job, an unborn child, my car and a steady place to stay in a very short period of time. Im now living at the Atlantic City rescue mission in Atlantic City NJ where I am writing this post. Its overcrowded, unsanitary and operated terribly and filled with drug addicts, alcholics and career homeless people that gave up a long time ago, however, its the only place i have to go. All i have is sanity and pride. Im very underweight. No one will even give me an interview to sell myself for a job. Im just looking for a way out of here. a dime will be a blessing a dollar would be a miracle. Hotel rooms start at $30 a night here. I just want to get out before i get sick. Thank you for your time

Completely Honest Request - No Begging Required

Posted by HeNateMe on 2010-12-14 16:58:58

I am going to be completely honest with you. I am a very talented individual who, through the force of circumstances, has not been able to get out of a rut. I am educated, have years of work experience, have a lovely wife and beautiful son. I am very fortunate in many aspects of my life, except money. It stems from our house flooding back in 2008. Our basement (which is also my wife's place of business) flooded due to an extreme winter storm. Our sump pump failed to engage when waters began to collect behind our house. The resulting damage totaled close to $20,000.00. Even though our area was considered a disaster area the US government declined my request for a disaster grant, twice. We had to finance everything with credit cards. And that put us right in the hole.

Ever since we have had to use credit to get by. We have mounting credit card debt closing in on the 40K to 50K range (I don't want to add it all up as I don't want to see the actual number). I am considering one of those debt resolution companies or bankruptcy. But both have major drawbacks. I have been searching for a better paying job in the accounting industry but competition is stiff and employers' requirements are high and the amount of jobs is low.

I am certain that if we could get rid of this debt we would be put back on our feet and ready to excel. I just need one "do over" without any harsh consequences and then I feel I will be able to go GREAT things. Thank you for listening.
