your donation will help me pay bills and also clothes,food and other things in life...every pound/dollar gratefully received...thank you.

Positive "Pet Parenting" is the main goal of the Dog Scouts of America. Troops have and are still forming all across the US and there has been a significant decrease in the amount of dogs being given up to the pound as unwanted or untrainable. With the success of DSA Troops in the US, DSA Troop 188 has selected a pet parent/Dog Scout team to go to the UK. An AP article published in The Day Newspaper of New London, CT and Norwich Bulletin, Norwich, CT has received many many viewings in the UK. The article can be found at: http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/dog-scouts-america-troops-22-states-16064429
.

DSA Troop 188 wants to act now to capture the attention and passion of the UK dog owners and dog lovers. DSA Troop 188 has already been in touch with dog clubs in the UK that wish to partner with the team when they arrive to facilitate the DSA Troops formations.

DSA Troop 188 needs $5,000 USD in order to sent the ambassadorial team over. This covers the settlement costs for both the human and the Dog Scout and transport fees.

Won't you please help fellow dog lovers, dog owners and the dogs and help reduce the amount of dogs in pounds? Any little bit you can give will help tremendously. Thank you in advance for your support, you/your company will be mentioned in the Troop newsletter and on here.

Dog's lives are short enough, let's do all we can to help them enjoy their time with us.

Hi, My name is Melissa and Im currently out of work. While things are tough my little dog a poodle named Little Bit has been my constant companion. She is the light in my dark world. But its becoming harder to keep her feed and I don't want to have to give her up to the pound. I love her and want to keep her. I know this sounds weird asking for money for this but what can I say, I love her and would do anything for her. Any amount you can give would be greatly appriecated. Thank you for your time and patience in reading this beg

Hi,

(Note: You may see this same post on beggingmoney.com)

My name is Eliabe. I am an 18-year-old guy from Brazil and I need your donation because I need to move away but I can't afford it.
Let me tell you why.

I grew up being abused by my dad -- emotionally and sexually. I did not realize what was happening until recently. I still have to deal with the consequences. I became social phobic, anxious and depressed. I am still afraid, disgusted of and uncomfortable with touch and closeness, yet I am dying for it. An African therapist agreed to help me for free, so I am getting better but only very recently am I making progress.

Three, almost four, years ago (2008), my family rejected me over religious issues. I wanted to join this Sabbatarian Christian religious association (this particular sect is a minority in Brazil and honestly everywhere else but they're more present in the US and England) and my family rejected me and reproached me so severely that it radically changed my personality. They wanted to throw me away. I was only 15. I had nowhere to go. I was deeply shocked and shaken on the inside. I never knew I could feel so hurt! I had never expected such sudden rejection from them. My mom said I was a disappointment to her and that I would not stay under the same ceiling as hers if I wanted to keep my faith. My siblings made fun of me and my new beliefs. My father demonized me and said he'd take me to their religious authorities to “straighten me out.” They accused me of bringing a curse into our lives and treated me as a shame to the family ("What will others think?" they wondered). My relatives (uncles, aunts, cousins -- I have a big family) were all against me too. I did not tell my friends because they belonged to the same religion as my parents. I started isolating from everybody. I became very deeply depressed. I would sleep just not to have to be awake and suffering.

It was really overwhelming to me. I had nowhere to go, no one to turn to. The congregation was out of town. So I decided to give up on joining that group. However, I did not stop believing in them but I had to pretend to be in my parents' religion on the outside.

But then my life became a nightmare. I had bad dreams at night. I became paranoid. Every time I was outside, I would walk around the house many times before taking the courage to go in. My heart would pound every time the phone or doorbell rang or someone called my name or asked about my religion. I would feel sick and go pale every time someone initiated a conversation about religion with me. I was traumatized. I am only getting better now. I fainted many times as I got weak because my mom refused to cook clean kosher dishes for me. I can’t even begin to describe all the sacrifices and pains I had to go through not to lose my identity. I can’t, for example, go out on a date or have a serious friendship because I am hiding the most important part of myself. Try to have a relationship where you do things you can’t explain the other party. Do you think it can ever work? My friendships are all shallow because of that.

I am a recent high school graduate. I took a basic course on administrative services and telemarketing last year, paid by the government as part of a program in Brazil called “Jovem Aprendiz” (“Young Apprentice” in English). As part of that course, I am working part-time, supposedly to acquire experience in the field, though I actually work as a warehousing assistant in the company (completely unrelated to administrative services). As I only work part-time (4 hours a day), I only receive HALF the minimum wage, which means I earn about $2 per hour. Yes, I could save that money to achieve my goals. It would take over two years but it would be possible. But I can't at the moment because I have to support my parents and siblings. My brother also works and my dad has recently found a job after three years of unemployment but I still have to give them a significant part of my salary or else we will starve. Also, even if I could, I’d still be desperate because I have been suffering for almost FOUR YEARS!

So I want to move away because I want to be free to convert and live my life, have friends, a girlfriend and a normal life. I got a passport and contacts in the United States. They can help me once I am there but they can’t buy my plane tickets as they cost over $800! There are also additional costs as I need a visa. I am currently looking for a job there. There have been people who want to hire me but they stopped contacting me after learning of the costs they would have to pay.
So please help me. It is the ONLY way for me to be happy again! It doesn’t matter how much you donate. It will make a HUGE difference.

Thank you very much. God bless you!

Last year I was mugged and left unconscious because a group of thieves decided they wanted to have my phone. I suffered multiple injuries including a broken cheekbone. I'm glad I'm still here but my phone company werent so helpful and didnt want to help me out. I had an iphone 4 and was paying 35 pounds a month, I still am, after having a month off work after the incident I lost my job and my insurance company would not pay out as I didnt ring to cancel the phone within the right amount of time 48 hours as I was in hospital. I am broke now. I have work in a cafe on just enough for me to get by. Still have no phone and so I am resorting to begging for someone to donate me the money to fund me another one as i have 18 months left on my contract and it was a 400 pound phone it would be an absolute god send. Noone else seems to have any mercy. I would never usually try this but you never know. Thankyou :) God bless anyone who reads this.

Yesterday morning I gave birth naturally to a beautiful 9lb10oz baby girl, and an hour after I was notified my dog, Tyson, had gotten out (my room mate let him out because he doesn't like my dog).
The pound called and said it would be $150 and $20 a day for every day he is there. So now $170..
we have $80 so far from a few friends, but not enough yet. And we would make the room mate pay, but there's no proof other than what history says.
Which brings the story here. I believe in random acts of kindness, and I'm asking anyone reading this to donate to help us get him out. Even if all you can give is a dollar, please, everything helps.

Please help us get Tyson.

Hi, my name is Jennifer and I volunteer with East TN Spay & Neuter. ETSN is a non profit organization to help people with low income be able to get their pets fixed. ETSN is also trying to build a low cost clinic in our area.

Good morning,

I am married and have three children. We live from one salary and have no possibility to change this. Due to a series of unhappy events for the last 29 months we have now problems with our mortgage. First it was an extreme gas/electricity bill for over 2000 euro, then a very serious sickness in the family, then the car reparation of 1000 euro, then my grandmother died leaving a not insured loan. But it was just the beginning. The health problems in the family persisted and I was the one to pay for an unisured family member. Two surgeries abroad, plane tickets. In a situation like this, when someone is sick you jst dont think about your bills, just pay for the hospital, medicines, doctors. This is what I did and what made me suffer a lot now. I have no savings, no car as it completely broke in October and we cannot afford to buy a new engine. The backlog in the mortgage pazments is really terrible and I dont see any solution to this. I cant even afford to pay for the school cantine for my children as the mortgage takes almost everything. I would be very grateful for each single euro, dollar or pound.

i work so hard to pay bills and barely have enough money for food for me and my 3 year old twin boys, money doesnt stretch far usually buys £20 gas £20 electric a week , pay off catalogue for my furniture i ordered which is £100 a month and to pay my car insurance and car loan, we literally have a small ready meal each a day cant afford to eat very under nourished and long for just a smple bar of chocolate once in a while and fresh fruit and vegetables to have proper home cooked meals instead of cheap 2 dor £1 microwave meals and pound shop drinks - i am looking for a new job in mean time.
PLEASE PLEASE HELP not asking for big donations just simple small ones will be GREATLY appreciated.
Thankyou and god bless

im a single mother to a 4year old son im currently living in a flat thats falling down brick by brick i need to raise 500 pound for a deposit please help me

In November my wonderful, pregnant fiancé was suspended from her job as a lecturer and escorted from the building in humiliating fashion. She hadn't done anything to deserve this and after all this time and many, many letters later the college has provided no explanations, allegations, or testimonies to support their accusations.

The college has, however, made numerous unlawful actions since then regarding her status - for example, they have provided a risk assessment to prove they have accommodated her needs whilst pregnant except it's signed by everyone apart from my fiancé who has never seen it before in her life.

The final straw was this morning when her employers paid everyone except my fiancé and now we are left to pay all the bills and the mortgage with my low salary; I simply don't earn enough. Not to mention we are expecting our first child in March and whilst this is supposed to be such a happy time for us, it has been the most stressful. Neither of us can sleep properly and it's affecting my performance at work.

We fully intend to take the college to tribunal but that won't happen until the Summer and that's assuming we can afford to pay for a solicitor to take our case on.
We desperately need money to stay afloat or we will lose everything. Anything you can give, even if it's only one pound, will help. Please let me say a heartfelt thank you if you choose to donate.

I am a 21 year old mum of twin boys but before you judge NO I am not on benefits in fact I have 3 jobs ; an early morning cleaning job which is weekdays, a 3 day a week care assistant at a residential home and on weekends a bartender. I rarely get to see my boys as I am working to earn a living and avoid benefits , my mum has them and if not then I have to scrimp and save to pay for their daycare which is paid til they are 3 it is 7 pound per child a day. I am struggling to put food on the table and am ashamed to say on one deseperate occasion I have shoplifted food on a day I literally didn't have a penny. My wages mostly go on bills and my car to get me to my jobs, there's not much more I can do to get money I am tired all the time and would love a holiday for me and my boys but obvz can not afford one as moneys tight as it is so please please if you can help it would genuinely genuinely be appreciated I am desperate and have even resorted to trying to sell my old loved possessions on ebay to try and raise up some cash, many thanks and god bless to those who donate x

Hi all, my family needs emergency help with food and bills. My dad makes money, but it's always gone before the month ends between the electricity, gas, food, phone and medical expenses. It always goes, and none of the services can help us because they say he makes too much money. But all the money goes toward necessities. Now the bills have gone way up and we've had to cut back on everything including food. My mom is really sick in a hospital bed, and we can't even afford to get the stuff that she needs to be comfortable. For the past few months we've been eating less and less food as my dad goes into his bank account more and more to pay bills and get more food. Now his account is almost dried up, and we're stuck with very little food until payday. My dog is suffering too because we can't even get enough food for him. I'm really scared that we might have to give him up, but he's 12 years old and nobody is looking for a dog that old and the pound will only put him to sleep.

If you can donate anything, anything at all, it'll be really appreciated. Thanks.

My story is my body has sustained alot of battlewounds during pregnancy and I hope that the generosity of kind people out there would help me get closer to my dream of seeking plastic surgery with gorgeous getaways. I am a mother of two beautiful children I have a supportive loving partner who works long hard hours to keep our livelyhood ticking over. My reason for coming on this site is because I never put myself before family I'm scared this might devastate us financially. But I am so insecure and embarrassed about my tummy and breasts as they look like they belong to a sixty year old women and not a thirty year old women. I am and always have been petite. I'm an active person by nature, I love running but my stomach is saggy and stretched out from having 9 pound children and breast feeding 2 kids have made me breasts look like fried eggs. I feel like the ugly duckling in my family, my husband is gorgeous and my girls are stunning, I'm so scared my husband is going to turn his attention onto someone else one day. I need to start feeling vibrant and sexier again. Please help me break out of my ugly duckling ways. I have nothing to offer but my friendship and ever lasting gratitude. Thank you for listening to my story sincerely yours NZ

I'm a firm believer that nothing comes for free in this world but unfortunately I have found myself in a situation I can't seem to get myself out of these days.

I'm 22, and after moving out of home (and country) at 18 I found myself falling into the wrong crowd and eventually was on the game for a year until a close encounter that left me in hospital (nothing serious, just a few scars on my scalp thank god).... after that scare I woke up and realised I don't want that type of life even if the money was good... I went straight and am now in no way living beyond my means... my means doesn't even come close to paying my bills or feeding me at the moment.. and I am doing all I physically can to support myself without returning to my previous line of work.

I am asking for any amount anyone can spare to help me out.. even a couple of dollars/pound... and in return I will do what I can with regards to the following...

I'm pretty good with web design (html & xhtml) and in return I can either help create a site for you, or create a custom html/xhtml page for your facebook profile.

If this isn't for you all I can promise is to pay it forward... one good deed deserves another.

Thanks for your time & I hope someone somewhere can find the decency to help if they can.

I had an accident that resulted in a broken ankle and torn ligament. This happenend last March while I was out in the woods.. fell very awkwardly on a slope and fell on my left foot.
I have been on a plaster and crutches for 4 weeks. Now just crutches.. They are awful to handle.. I am pretty much bedridden apart from dinner time... Luckily for me my boyfriend is taking care of me but still not easy to live like this.

I have now run out of paid sick days and I am now on SSP which I cant afford! I have asked for loan and overdrafts and they were declined as I already owe money to the bank...
I even considered to ask my family and/or friends for money but the situation is pretty bad with everyone.
My boyfriend is even in a worst situation than me so cant ask him for help.. although he is giving me all the support he can, money is becoming a problem. I havent been able to complete my housing benefit form as I need to get to the office to show my passport, etc and I cant get there... Even if I get it it wouldnt be much help...

I know it's a long shot but I was wondering if you could help at all or getting anyone else to contribute.. Even a fiver here and there can go a long way... or just even a pound!

My physio said I could go back to normal by mid June... with some luck... That would mean I could get evicted from my flat!

It is not possible for me to get back to work in these conditions, my company is ok about it whcih is good but their premises are not really disable friendly. Also I live in a top floor and have to get downstairs whcih means hopping on one leg. Thta is terribly dangerous.. I have had little accidents doing so..

Any help is very welcome...

Thanks a lot

I WANT TO BE MILLIONAIRE!
I know it's offensive to ask for money for this reason, since I believe most of people using this website need money for more serious reasons.
There's millions of people in the world that couldn't care less about 1 dollar,1 pound or 1 euro, if those same millions where to give 1 dollar or 1 euro I would be millionaire.
If I get to my target I then will be able to produce even more money and be able to help out people in away that I can't now.
My target then is 1 Million, but for you will only cost 1 dollar or 1 pound :D Thank You.
