Because I believe in the power of prayer & the kindness of my fellow man, I've decided to swallow my pride & ask for help. This is not an action I am at all familiar with but am grasping at every straw to attempt to keep a roof over my family's head. We live in a modest house that we've called home for the past 20+ years.

I am a single mother who's been truly blessed with 4, beautiful, healthy children; 3 biological & a foster son that joined our family when he was 12…..he is now 23. My kids are the reason I continue to battle through what has been the most challenging, darkest phase of my 50 years on this Earth.

In the summer of 2011, life, as my family knew it, was forever changed. My son got off the school bus & proceeded to enter a crime scene upon opening the front door of the house we call home. It was immediately clear that we were victims of a daytime home invasion and robbery. A trail of splinters led straight to my bedroom door, which had been demolished in the process of gaining entrance & access to my personal belongings. Robbers took my box of trash bags & proceeded to fill them with anything that could be sold or traded. I came home to find that they had stolen everything of value that I had worked for in my 50 years of existence & everything of value that my kids cherished as well.

It didn't happen often, but on the occasion that I had a few extra dollars to spend on myself, I found pleasure in buying nice jewelry. Through the years, I had managed to accumulate a nice collection. Also, as a child, my father & I shared an interest in coin collecting. I had managed to hold on to several interesting coins my dad & I found. Weekly, he also, gave me & my brothers our allowance of a fifty cent piece each. I had somehow managed to hold on to many of these as well. I stored my coin collection in the bottom portion of my large armoire. This area is what my family referred to as "the safe." Anything of value, particularly sentimental, was given to me to be protected in the safe. A couple good examples are my, then, 10 year old son's game ball for hitting the Championship game winning grand slam home run & my daughter's horse riding medals, show jewelry & accessories, as well as a silver handled knife & sheath…….the only personal possession my foster son owned from his childhood. I carry a tremendous amount of guilt for not doing a better job of safe guarding my family's precious & dear possessions.

In addition to the lingering guilt, the robbery also resulted in life altering psychological effects to me & my family. I continue to wonder if & when I will ever fully recover & be the secure, self confident person I was before the robbery. Immediately following the break-in, I was consumed by finding out who was responsible & ways of obtaining this information…..I could think of nothing else. After several weeks of frantic guessing & running wild goose chases, I started to realize that regaining possession of my property was less likely as each day went by. I could feel myself falling into a dark, lonely place with deep despair…..& unfortunately, I was content to be there. For the next several months, I could not work, did not eat or sleep & rarely came out of my bedroom. There was a film in my head that ran & reran the events leading up to & immediately following the robbery…..filled with the "I should've"s, "I could've"s and "what ifs." I am plagued with distrust & no longer find interest in much of anything. I was robbed of far more than just pieces of property…..they stole my trust in mankind, my desire to thrive, my faith in the world & my sanity.

I have worked as a medical school curriculum manager for 21 years. As a result of my mental decline, I was unable to work for over three months which, consequentially, made it difficult to pay all of the bills. I managed to rob Peter to pay Paul for several months & kept up with everything except for my house payment. It is now in arrears nearly $5,000.00 & I am out of resources. For the first time in my life, I am facing foreclosure. It is embarrassing & humiliating & I don't know how to tell my kids that they are likely to have no place to call home in the very near future. I feel like such a failure! Even though I've been an exemplary employee for many years, as a consequence of the self doubting & tremendous stress, I am now faced with the strong potential of losing my job due to my inability to focus & my lack of desire to face each day, As if this wasn't enough for one person to handle, I am also witnessing the daily decline of my father & my hero due to end stage Parkinson's & Alzheimer's.

I'm not sure how this begging website works but if there is someone out there that is willing to make me a loan & work out a payment arrangement, I promise not to let you down.....you will be repaid! I am working hard to battle the persisting PTSD symptoms that continue to plague me. I just worry that facing homelessness may be more than I can handle. Lord, I hand it over to You coz I come to You a broken, wounded angel. I thank you for any consideration and appreciate all prayers. May God bless you many times & in many ways for your generosity & kindness!

I am a 24 year old student trying to fund my own degree. I am now in 2nd year and really struggling to keep everything together. I unfortunately had to resign from my job that funds my education as I couldn’t balance working and my degree. I do not have any reason why you should donate money specifically to me. I am healthy, I have no children or dependents who are relying on me, and nothing particularly devastating has happened me to put me in my current situation. Unfortunately I simply have no-one else to ask. My family would give me all the money they have, unfortunately they have as much/little as me. I am not asking for a large sum of money, nor do I expect anything from anyone who cannot afford it. There are many other people in a more desperate situation than I am. It is however my dream to graduate and use my degree to help those less well off than myself and to be honest, although it isn’t going to kill me if I don’t get my degree, I honestly can’t think of what else I could do with my future. I guess I’m just hoping that there are people reading this who have been in my situation and also people who can empathise that for some, the student life isn’t quite as carefree and full of fun as it is often portrayed to be. Any amount is appreciated more than you can imagine as every little really does help, and any donation is more than I have right now. Any donations will go towards my university fees which my job previously covered. Thank you lots even just for taking the time to read this.

I never thought I would find myself in this situation, particularly at this point in my life. I have worked hard for what I want and need since I was about 12. While I haven’t always had a lot I have given what I can to those with less even if it was just some of my time. Not long ago my nearly 20 year marriage turned dangerous causing me to flee leaving most everything (even the car) behind and starting over with nothing but debt. More recently my employer had to eliminate my position for economic reasons leaving me unemployed. My lease ends very soon. I am one step away from a homeless statistic. I look for work every day and even have a phenomenal business concept I would like to pursue. I’m not asking for a hand out I want to pay back any help given or pay it forward to the discretion of my benefactors. Thank you!

I am an artist who has written a one woman show. I made this work to engage the church--particularly the African American Church, in a dialogue about homophobia. The work details the struggles of my best friend and brother, a black gay man, for acceptance in the religious community.

I believe the time is right for this dialogue and seek donations to mount a production of the work in my city and other cities.

Any donation would be appreciated and would go to an important work.

Thank you in advance.

I am 31 years old with a varied and extensive resume as well as a degree in computer application development (not that that degree is particularly relevant...).
I have found 10 acres of rural land in Alaska.
This land costs $8,000.
I would like to buy the land and build a year round cabin on the property, to live in year round.
I am from a rural background (BC = Before College) and have working knowledge of home building and can gather the required materials from the land and surrounding area for the construction of reliable, comfortable, and sustainable housing. I have done an immense amount of research regarding the accomplishment of my goal (to be independent of today's social requirements) and have formulated a bullet-proof plan to live a comfortable yet remote life away from the hustle and bustle of modern entrapment's and closer to the dream of our ancestors. I am willing to elaborate on my plans regarding the dwelling and the steps I will take to accomplish my goal while sustaining the creature comforts of modern day living.
In addition to my rural upbringing I am also a combat military veteran with working knowledge of para-military and survival tactics.
I have saved enough money to move to the property of my choice from my home state and have also provided for the tools, food, clothing and provisions(including shelter) needed to complete this project, the rest of the requirements of the project will be bought or shipped at or near the building location at my personal expense. I have considered every avenue required to secure financing and have been stopped by my credit alone. Really what matters the most to me is that I will have the opportunity to work for a permanent solution to my financial. social, and economic ills. However, due to my poor credit rating (Thank you 17yr old me) I have been unable to secure financing from "the man" and have been forced to beg of the internet. Please o' please grant me my life... That being said, in addition to the months of preparation I have done, I have secured the willing enlistment of free labor (in the form of an old army buddy) for this project. That being said, with my current financial situation I cannot afford to purchase the land for the cash asking price even though it is 10 acres at a fraction of the price normally requested for that expanse of property. What I am asking for is enough money to purchase the land ($8,000 USD). In return I am willing to spend 2 months every year (during any year) devoted to work for my benefactor for up to 4 consecutive years. Call it hired hand, indentured servitude, slavery, or [insert vague derogatory/demeaning name here]. What matters to me is that if I work my ass off I can be sucessesful. Please O please help me reach my goal. I am at your mercy o awesome and wonderful internet.

I am a 22 year old computer nerd suffering from Bipolar and Major Depression. I can't hold a job down. I had a mental breakdown and had to move in with my dad, but now I'm moving back to my home town. My friends said I could move back in with them, and I told them I'd give them what money I could come up with. I have no idea what to do. I think I can fix computers, but it's a small town. I'm worried I won't be able to find work. I'm moving there with $4 I managed to get through online surveys. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Looking for help to start a business donating (fruits and Vegatable) to the homeless. Several years ago I inheritated a nice piece of farm land. I noticed all the people off work and the homelessness in our country and came up with an ideal to plant and give away the majoritey crop to families in need. About a quarter of 2-5 year olds and one-third of school-age children (including adolescents) are overweight or obese in the U.S. I'm hoping and praying for a miracle. I need farm equipment to get me started. The housing and homelessness crisis in the United States has worsened over the past two years, particularly due to the current economic and foreclosure crises. By some estimates, more than 311,000 tenants nationwide have been evicted from homes this year after lenders took over the properties. People being evicted from foreclosed properties and the economic crisis in general have contributed to the growing homeless population. As more people fall into homelessness, local service providers are seeing an increase in the demand for services. My goal is to donate my growing vegatables to homeless shelter and schools. (Please help me help the starving people)

I am hoping to find someone who has 3X clothing, particularly dresses and jumpers, that they would like to donate.

To Whom It May Concern:

I will be walking on behalf of the AIDS Run & Walk Chicago on Saturday, October 1, 2011. I am choosing to walk to raise money to help people impacted by this disease. There have been more than 450,000 Americans die from this disease and over a million more are living with HIV.

My wife had me removed from the SE Asian country we lived in and from where I made a living. I am back in Australia now, without work, on the dole and my kids need $3,000 for school fees, but it's more complicated than that. If I can't get the money within a week, the ex will move them out of the rented house and take them to another city staying with relatives. That will mean all my valuables - professional photography and video material and personal stuff there will be thrown out. She certainly wont protect my belongings but that is not the big deal - it's getting my kids, 14 and nearly 12, back in school. My son is particularly depressed and scared about all this. I am prepared to pay my way out of this when I secure work or work on your project if that can work. I sincerely need help on this so I hope you can help. Regards Geoff

I've been accepted to law school, and received a scholarship that covers partial tuition. I just found out that I don't qualify for the student loan I applied for, and school starts on August 17!

The reason I was rejected is because I defaulted on my undergrad loan. I'm not a delinquent, I swear! It started when I was overseas. I wanted to pay, but the only way to do so was with an American bank check, which I could not provide at the time, as I only had a British banking account. (What the hell loan company, right?!) My husband lost his job and we had to move back to the USA, since we were there on his visa, which drained all of our savings and credit. I've been unemployed since we moved back. I was a mental health law officer in the UK, a job which has no equivalent here... so while I tried to find employment, times are tough, especially for a girl with an arcane British law background.

My time working in mental health law overseas has led to my interest in becoming an attorney. I am particularly interested in pharmaceutical law (not working FOR big pharma of course) - I hope I can be a part of fixing the broken system one day! I know lawyers are a hated group of people, but I vow to work for the greater good. And whatnot ;)

So I appeal to you to help me. I only need to raise money for this semester, as my old loan will be rehabilitated by next semester and I can take out a new loan then. Please pass this along to anyone and everyone! Any contribution would be greatly appreciated. Donate today and live forever in my heart ♥

This is difficult for me to write yet I must put ego aside and take a chance. I am a single parent of three children in NYC. Three years ago I had to leave my job because I did not have a degree. After much planning I went back to school to get my Bachelors. I designed my studies to get financial aid to cover not only my tuition but also my rent and utilities. But I also knew that I would have part time work to cover any lag. Unfortunately, as soon as I did this the financial collapse occurred severely curtailing my earning potential. Tuition was covered but rent was not every month. I struggled and ultimately fell behind on rent. However, after entering into a payment plan with my Landlord I fell behind due to loss of income. I broke the agreement and am now forced to pay the entire arrears. My rental situation is so severe now that I am facing eviction by mid August. I owe $5500. I have gone to many of the city agencies to get my arrears taken care of and still hope to do so. However, I only have two weeks to secure this and I am not certain. I know that If I can raise at least half that amount I can get one of the organizations to match that amount. I have good kids and they don't need the trauma or deserve to be displaced in this manner. Particularly after all they have been through. My primary objective is to show them that I can follow through with school and keep a roof over their heads. The irony is that I will be finished with school in a few months. I also have work now and for the foreseeable future. My only issue is that I cannot pay the massive arrears that is now totally due. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I will give any information requested.

Hello,

Thank you for taking a moment to look at my post. My need is surely much less urgent than the needs of many others on here, but I must ask for help.

I work for a non-profit hospice who recently had to eliminate part of my position to save money. It looks like I might get some hours back, but right now I am having trouble paying bills, particularly for diagnostic tests and doctors visits as we try to identify my autoimmune problems. I know too that losing weight would help me with my pain, energy level, and so much more. I generally eat pretty healthy foods, so I need to kick-start weight loss. I want to do the ideal protein diet but cannot afford it right now. If you are able to help me, I would benefit is so many ways and would endeavor to help others in turn.

Many thanks, and peace be with you.

Hello Everyone. First let me say that I am not someone who sits home and does nothing. I do have a job and don't plan on relying on others for help for long. It seems like I can't get ahead and I don't want my children to suffer because I haven't been a good enough parent...If only I could have anticipated this... I'm just looking for the kindness of others to help get us through this particularly trying time. I want you to know that we are good people. We're Christian and relying on our faith as well. Please know, that anyone who donates will not be forgotten as I will acknowledge you personally and will pay you back when I can. Anything you can donate will be truly welcomed...whatever you can do.

Hello. my dear internet friend,

I am Binaya , consultant cum machinery supplier for agriculture and small scale industries , working in India particularly in Orissa state since last twelve years. But unfortunately, I am going through a very bad time since2009 & desperately need your help. Hope ; you will help me.

Through a series of bad decisions and poor judgments I have lost a huge amount in my business and now I have found myself in the worst situation I could ever imagine. I am completely bankrupt and have been shifted to a rental complex with my old and sick parents. I have fought tooth and nail trying to get out of this hell I have been trapped in for years now to no avail. Today I am in debt up to my eyeballs. Money lenders are hounding me multiple times daily and in this situation I am left with no other choice than begging to save my family. I do not really like to do this but I have exhausted every option I can think of need help desperately. I have no where to go and no one who can help.

I am in a situation that I know I will never be able to overcome without a help from you. So to save me and my parents please donate money as much as you can for which I shall be ever grateful to you.

Thanking you for helping me.

(I might have accidentally posted duplicate(ish) posts)

Keeping it simple:

I need to get up-to-date on my rent first and foremost and I need another job. There are other things too: I'd love to make a Grocery Outlet/ CostCo run to stock up food and sundries... I need new glasses to replace ones lost in a purloined purse over the summer... it'd be terrific to pay down some medical bills or even just go to the dentist (it's been several years)to make sure I still don't have any cavities.

About me:
I'm an adult student, doing well academically. I enjoy the track I'm on and believe I'm on the right one to boot. I carry a full-time course-load and intend to maintain this momentum. I dropped out years ago and am glad to be back (I'm in my 3rd Quarter back) and it's good for my morale.
I'm unwilling to do any Adult work or anything like that. I've tried that route (again, years back) and for my personality it's no good- I just become sad and resentful and wasted (and I'm in love with someone who'd leave if I did something like that and I don't want to lie and he's good for morale too).
I do occasionally pick up odd jobs (housekeeping, catering, landscaping, babysitting, whatever) and that helps with kibble.

How did I get here?:
When I enrolled in school I was just employed enough to make ends meet and have a little slush fund too. One job from that time has had to cut my hours by 75% and the tips during my remaining shifts are also down. The other regular job I was working ended after my then boss became particularly inappropriate and abusive while late in paying me (I'm still waiting on that check which I believe will come in about two weeks- long story but that's probably within all rights).

So that's me. My friends would help more if they could (and they cheer me on and cover my movies and the like) and so would my family (older parents, teacher siblings) but they can't. And my problems are causing problems to others when I can't pay my bills and so even more I want this all solved. My landlord is the opposite of a jerk and I am supposed to be a regular, reliable source of income.

Thanks for reading. Thanks for helping. I will send out a God Bless request and continue to pray- however, if you don't believe in God that's fine too. Have a great day.
