Relying Tags

My name is Rocky, I'm a 20 year old full-time college student living alone with a kitten, enrolled at North Lake College in Irving, Texas.

I'm relying solely on Financial Aid to survive right now, as I cannot find a job anywhere that is willing to hire a full-time student.

Out of the four classes I took this semester, I failed one. I spent a lot of time just looking for a job, as a result, that cut heavily into my study time.

I have an outstanding medical bill, and I unfortunately received my first-ever speeding ticket today- both I most likely will not be able to pay off anytime soon.

I'm seeking help from anyone I can possibly receive it from. Anything from donations, to even any jobs you may have for me in my local area will benefit me. If there are any positions you can hire me for, please do tell me.

Thanks in advance. - Rocky

hi there and thanks for taking the time to read my story. i am a single mum to a 3 yr old little girl. her dad walked out on us when i found out i was pregnant and has even left the country so i cant get maintenance off him. i lost my job a year ago and since then i have been able to apply for 4 jobs but not even offered an interview from them. i have no support from family when it comes to childcare so i am totally relying on nurseries and there just arent any jobs that fit around nursery hours and will give me set hours. i am surviving on income support which doesnt go far and some weeks i just dont have money to go to the supermarket so really have to cut down potions to make food stretch further. i am trying all ways to raise a bit of money including selling mine and my daughters clothes on ebay. i need to pay £160 water bill before the bailiffs are knocking on the door. thanks for reading and if you would like to donate ANY amount to us i can promise you it will be very gratefully received, thanks

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 had posted first time ever a few weeks ago about my situation, my being ill and unable to work. A wonderful woman actually responded and donated 5$, which I was amazed, as I've never seen anything like this before. My main concern was feeding my son. Unfortunately, I got a letter from landlord saying if I can't pay rent on time (11 days past due now) he will have to sell the house. I thought food money was asking for a lot. My rent is $1050, 1180 with late fees. My son, daughter and grandaughter all live here with myself, so all relying on me.

I have finally filed for food stamps, and medical and SSDI and awaiting approval, to get back on feet, in the meantime, if we lose our home, there is no place to go. No family, definitely no money for first last and security to move.

Please, please, I beg of you, of anyone out there. Any and every bit helps and adds up. Even if I give him something, its better than nothing and he is a kind patient man who has worked with me through my illness.

I know now that I got the ball rolling with benefits, I will be able to sustain the family, just can't lose the home. I have been searching high and low for work to sustain us while awaiting approval. I always used to work 60-70 hours a week and hate not working. I have the pain under enough control to work here and there and willing to do anything at all legal. I'd scrub a toilet with a smile on my face just because I'd know I'd be working and sustaining us until everything is approved.

Please, please, any help at all is greatly appreciated, please help us save our home.

First of all, thank you for taking the time to read my story.
I was born with congenital scoliosis and only half a rib cage. Because of this, my lungs never fully developed past the age of 5. I never thought of myself as handicapped and always pushed myself to do anything anyone else could do, but of course I was at a disadvantage and never really could be normal. But I was full of energy and I was young so I didn't let it hold me back. I couldn't run very far without having to stop and rest, but I still got around fine. A few years back I came down with pneumonia. Eventually I got better but the damage was done. After a while, I could tell that my breathing was getting worse. Eventually I noticed swelling around my ankles and I would wake up with horrible headaches. When I finally went to the doctor to figure out what was happening, I found out I had pulmonary hypertension and severe sleep apnea. Now I have to be on oxygen 24/7 and on a bi-pap machine while I sleep. I'm 30 years old and living on social security.
I still dream of earning a living for myself, but in order to do so I need some equipment so I can work from home. I also need a car so I can be more independent and stop relying on family members to give me a ride when I need to get groceries or go run errands.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and put to good use. Thank you and God bless.

My husband and I are disabled, have no reliable income and have been denied SSI benefits. While we appeal the decisions from SSA, we have been relying on sporadic work (odd jobs, working online) and help from friends to provide for our basic needs. We were recently homeless for six weeks. A friend was later able to help us with the cost of a residential hotel for a few weeks, but she can no longer help at this point.

Our rent for next week is due in less than 8 hours, and we are $150 short. We have prayed for last-minute work, donations and/or loans, but nothing has come through. We have contacted countless social service organizations; all of them have told us that there is nothing they can do to help us right now.

It is getting very cold in New England, especially at night, and we are terrified of sleeping on the street again, in the cold, with all of our health issues (including chronic pain).

Any help that can be offered to us at this point would be very much appreciated and make a huge difference to us. Please help if you can.

UPDATE: We were able to borrow the bulk of this week's rent and have another week to work on finding a better housing solution; we're extremely grateful. We now have two weeks to repay the loan and need to continue to keep a roof overhead at the same time. Any donations will continue to be extremely helpful and very much appreciated by us.

Sorry for reposting this, but my account details were wrong. Thank you in advance for listening.

Hello, I am a mommy of 2 ages 6 and 13 and a loving wife of 15 years. My husband and I are happily married and proud parents. He is a hard worker and good provider, I am a stay at home mom, our youngest has many health issues that prevent him from going to school, so I home school him. We are truly positive people with an abundance of faith. We seem to be that couple who everyone can turn to whenever they need help, whatever it may be. We always do our best to help others out...no questions asked. Unfortnately now we have fallen to the position of being the ones and need and seem to be all on our own.
This started nearly a year ago, we were living happily in a place we had always wanted to be. My husband worked a graveyard shift, one night while he was workin an intruder came into our home and brutally attacked me physically and more... Thankfully by the grace of God our kids were safe, one asleep and the older one kept her brother safe as she heard everything. Needless to say, we no longer felt safe in our home, and I was barely functioning. My husband did all he could to make us all feel safe. But the only thing I could think of is that we needed to move, and far away. So we did. We moved 3 hours away to our home town, hoping to find comfort in family. This is where our financial struggles began, a big sudden move like that nearly wiped us of our savings and my husband took quite a pay cut. But still the positives out wieghed the negative. Finally months later I began to realize I could turn this into something good, so I went back to school. With making less $ I was approved for financial aid. All was ok, and then this semester I went to register for school and I couldn't because they had overpaid me on financial aid so I now have an $765 balance that I have to pay before I can even get back into school. We had been relying on financial aid and student loans to help keep us afloat through out the year. Not even a week after that we were headed on an end of summer road trip and our truck broke down 175 miles from our home. We had to have it towed at $4 per mile plus an $85 hook up fee, so nearly $800. Now they are charging us another $400 to replace a part that cost only $80. So, the truck is still there. It seems now that every week something else keeps coming up. We just need help to catch up, just get over this slump. Our account is now in the negative because we have to get food and things just to get through the week. We have looked into payday loans, and I'm afraid that would just make matters worse. Especially since they only offer $300 which won't even cover the negative acct we already have. We've sold old clothes and other items we had on craigslist to help with gas and food. We are out of options now. We only need help or a loan to get through to January and by then with any luck I can get my financial aid and student loans. Any help is greatly appreciated. Its a horrible feeling to not know what is coming next or to know if we will continue to get poured on or if finally the sun may start shining again soon. Thank you for listening to my story.

I am struggling to find the time and resources needed to start my own online business. I was laid off for almost a year and have gotten a new job, but since I am in debt, it is difficult to save money or start a business. I am trying to do the business plan and get some friends help write the code, but no one is motivated if I do not pay them.

I am a smart woman who is independent and usually does not like to ask anyone for money. I think I am doing this online because it is more discrete than asking people I know for help.

To help with costs I have cancelled any cable and internet, and use coffee shops for free WiFi. It's also hard to do an online business if I am relying on other place's internet all the time.

I would appreciate if you can donate any amount. Every penny counts.

Firstly, I believe it is important to be honest to anyone who would like to help me. I do not pretend to be innocent or the victim of the world. The situations I have gotten myself into as of late, are all entirely my doing. I take full responsibility for everything. Unfortunately, I am beyond desperate financially and I am unable to help myself which due to this fact, I have come to my last resort online.

Growing up where I have, the only thing to do is to go out every night and drink until the sun comes up or get married and have children by the time you're 18. I chose the party/social life and it has finally hit me that I am failing myself and the potential I know I have to be something other than a washed up woman sitting at a bar doing the same thing I did when I was 21, only alone and probably creepy to the other 21 year olds. I have my ex-boyfriend to thank for this realization, I think. Due to my wake-up call, I have gone through the steps of growing up. I stopped hanging out with the people who didn't want to change and better themselves and I have filled out my FAFSA so I can get financial aid to go to the cosmotology school that I have always wanted to attend, Paul Mitchell Academy. Everything seemed to head in the right direction, until I decided I would go out one night for just a bit after not going out for almost a month. That 'bit,' cost me my first DUI. Attempting to still stay positive, I got new job outside of a bar and away from the area of my problems. The positive shortly turned to negative with the realization I would have to pay $1,000 for a 6wk class as well as pay off a $2,000 ticket, not including what would be my SR-22 insurance on top of living expenses and bills. Still, I stayed slightly positive, until now. My car's motor has blown and now, I am without a car and relying on the few people I do know for rides only to work. It makes me feel pathetic to have to ask others for help. I feel so helpless and worthless that I have gotten myself in such situations as these and it is entirely my fault due to my irresponsible actions. I do not ask my friends to take me to the grocery store or help me to run the errands I need because I do not like to put people out. So, I order take out and eat at the restaurant I work at almost everyday, it's getting rather old and I don't feel healthy. I can't ask either of parents for help as they are not able to give it, even though they would if they could. My mother lives off of disability and her car is breaking down as well. My father works, but I'm not really sure how he makes it on the little money he makes. I am in a bind, one that seems to get tighter and thicker by the day. My positive outlook and my hopes for a better life is slowly but surely diminishing by the day. I feel so awful for asking for help from strangers, but if weren't so absolutely desperate, I wouldn't. I want to make something of myself I want a better life, and it's time to move on, but I need a few helping hands to do so. If anyone out there is willing or able to help, I am asking so very humbly for it. I appreciate you listening to my story and for any of those who care to help someone in need. I want to thank all of you beautiful people who do selflessly help someone you don't know get back up on my feet and hopefully back on track.

I am 18 years old and I am in dire need of help. I need some money to help pay my tuition, room, and books at UC Berkeley. I have no knowledge about my family as I have been living homeless for the past 9 years of my life. I have tried many ways to pay for college and financial aide has served me well for the past two years. Unfortunately I have exhausted some of my fund and can no longer afford to pursue my dreams of becoming an Aeronautical Engineer.

For the past year I have been living in the streets of San Francisco relying on the kindness of strangers in exchange for cleaning houses, but this small job can only help so much that I still need at least 25,000 so that I can pay for college, room, books, and food. I am just asking you to please help me survive and accomplish my life goal, to have a stable life and hopefully find my lost family.

A cent or a dollar helps me have a shot of a decent life.

Thank You for seeing this and for the donations

God Bless!

Hello, my name is Scott and I am here asking for help because I... have run out of every alternative to get my life and my project studio business off the ground. It's at a dead stop. I was laid off in March 2011 due to company downsizing, could not qualify for unemployment because the previous employers "claimed" I'd quit. Job hunted on foot in Chicago from March to August filling out 4-9 applications a day, 5 days a week without a single call from anyone. Exhausted all of my bank accounts, can not get a load due to not owning a car or home, had to sell my car just to pay off debts, lost my apartment because ex-roommate thought it was better to steal from me and lie about having a job than telling the truth. My parents are in the hospital, so they are in no shape to help me.

The only way I have been able to contact people is by relying on my girlfriend's Internet, electricity, helping her cook and clean while "guest staying" at her apartment but know this won't last. I ask too much of her help to watch my cat while I continue to look online.




All I ask is for someone, anyone who can help. My goal is simple: I need to raise enough money to start a art design, publishing studio which would bring in clients who need visionaries to help make their designs, commercials, products, books, ebooks, animation using the next wave of 3D technology, FX special effects for student filmmakers in Chicago colleges, to help bring in interns and show them the pros and cons to hone their skills, and finally bring together Chicago artists who wish to have their talents and skills to create extraordinary work for any and all who wish to see it.

Bottom line, I need help. Financial help. I don't know what else to do. I can't get a job, for whatever reason, I'm flat broke, exhausted from sleeplessness and stress. All I own is a laptop, some clothes, my wonderful artistic skills, (my undying determination, good sense of right and wrong, knowledge of computer programs, business sense, sharp humor and a kind heart to make my dream a reality. I really don't want to live under a expressway but if things don't change, it looks like my next post just might be my last.

For those of you who have read this and given some thought, please help by donating. Who knows, you might be lending out to the future "Industrial light and Magic" of the 21st century?






This is for more that just myself, this is for a cause that needs help. Help from people like you who know the value of the human heart. This is to help create a studio designed to welcome those who wish to create, strive, teach, animate, and pioneer. Imagination is the last, boundless frontier, let's be a part of that journey by helping one another dream it to fruition.

No dream ever truly dies, we just let them fade away.



Help me change that. Any help will do.






Thank you for reading.

Like many wide eyed young students, I was under the impression that getting a 4 year degree would help me snag a pretty sweet job. Likewise, like many graduates, I have come to the realization that this promise is a tall tale spun by universities and lenders trying to leach off my future living funds. If I take the suggested route to pay back these student loans I will, in fact, be paying a total of $182,00 after interest attacks.

To help combat this large sum of debt (and this extra $82,000 I didn't even spend on anything) I have decided to take every possible route I can to ensure that my parents can live life knowing their daughter can afford to eat.

My first steps: I am moving to a state where I can make more money (alone and scared, but ready to pay these suckers off). I am also giving up any luxuries I once afforded myself (Ramen noodles are quickly becoming my best friend) and (as you can see) begging for money. Just $1 from 100,0000 people could knock this debt out. I am relying on my own determination as well as on the kindness of strangers.

I am also toying with the ideas of 1. faking my own death and building a raft to float to another country, 2. joining the Peace Corps, because I heard they might pay off some of your debt, or 3. becoming a stripper, because the jobs I have found so far afford less money than my last resort (which is number 3, so you know).

So, in summation, I would like to ask all you strangers out there to donate even a penny to my sad circumstance. In return for a larger sum I could draw or paint someone a pretty picture and update them as my situation progresses. I also make a wonderful pen pal. All you have to do is check out my PayPal. For a dollar a month you could help me meet the basic necessities of life (such as food and not faking my own death).

Thank you for your time.

I know, all of us have. But you know that sinking, desperate feeling when you realize it? Well, as they say, hindsight is 20/20...

I'm a 37 year old mother of 2. I left my husband a few months ago due to his inability to put family first. He was spending all of our money to support his addiction to pain pills. Long story shorter, when the kids and I moved out, he said it was a huge wake-up call for him and that he realized how badly he had messed up. He got off the pills (or at least quit buying other than his actual monthly prescription from his doctor) and told me how sorry he was and how much he wanted help and to change.

Given that we have been married almost 9 years, I thought I owed our relationship another chance - without the influence of his habit or having to constantly worry about how we would get by. A little over a month and a half ago I allowed him to move into my house. Since that time, things have steadily regressed. I have caught him in lies a few times about money, and am now facing losing my car because he used my payment for himself instead of taking it to the car lot. I also found out that he is once again letting pain pills rule his life.

I've had enough! However, I'm stuck relying on him to help with the bills right now until I start my new job in mid-July (I was laid-off this month from the job I had).

I want to do the right thing for my children and for myself. I don't only blame my husband - I blame myself as well for allowing things to get to be the way they are. I don't intend to wallow in self-pity though. I want him out, and I plan to make a better life for me and my kids. I just need a little help getting there...

Any money that I receive will go to pay my rent and utilities, and to buy groceries. I am taking classes and will be licensed soon as an insurance agent. I am not one to sit around and just rely on others to pay my way, I just need help getting through a rough patch.

It is my sincere hope that I will be able to help others in need as well. I truly believe in paying it forward. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for any amount that you are able to donate. May God bless you and yours.

I am a motivated, single-mother who earned her Bachelor's degree when my son was a toddler, with the hope that I could provide a stable living for my family. Sadly, I have come to the realization that I would probably be better off not working, financially speaking, and relying on governmental assistance.

It's truly disheartening that I cannot survive on a single income alone, working full-time in advertising/marketing for our local newspaper. I thought I was doing everything right. Where did I go wrong? I left my son's father when he was an infant because he was unfaithful to me several times. It was not a conducive or healthy environment for me or my son. Since then, his father has been absent from his life for over 5 years. Not one phone call. Not one visit. No birthday presents. No cards. No money to help with expenses. Nothing. We can handle his absence because I have several positive male role models who have taken my son under their wings. He is a very well-grounded young man and has strong morals, values, and integrity.

With that said, I am the only financial support for him and I and pay all the bills, insurance, etc. and often have my wages garnished because I have had a difficult time paying for a couple ER visits (my son has asthma and was hospitalized with pneumonia) even with my insurance. I feel as if I can't get a break even though I try to do good.

My son is almost 9-yrs old and has been taking Suzuki violin lessons (paid for by a family friend) for the past year and a half. He is also my budding electrician/engineer...and creates incredible inventions with his circuit boards, wires, LEDs & motors that he digs out of old electronics. He attends the Robot Club at the local high school...and the older kids accept him even though he is their youngest member. =) He has an extremely bright future & I am so proud of him. However, it is a constant struggle everyday for me to put on a smile because we are so far in debt. I owe $2500 to the IRS for a supposed error on my 2009 tax return (disagree...but can't afford an attorney to fight it), $800 hospital bills, $3000 from other creditors from credit cards I had when I was 20 (I'm 35 now). I pay $300/month for daycare, household bills, car payment, etc. I am a good person & have a heart of gold. I want to remain a good role-model for my son so he is proud of me. I do not want to have to resort to relying on governmental assistance. I just wish we could survive on my income. It would be feasable if these bills were paid. Please help us. Any size donation would be an absolute blessing!! We need some financial assistance to get us back on our feet again. We're going through an extremely rough time & any gift would help. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

Best Regards,

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.

I am a full time college student in Southern California in need of personal transportation.

My travel distance to and from school in the scheme of things is not great. However the distance is impractical to walk on a regular basis;I've walked home from school a few times and it took a little under an hour considering I walk pretty fast. This usually means taking the bus as public transportation is underdeveloped in my area. The bus is extremely slow, so slow that one should leave home well before you need to be where ever you are going. The bus is also a dollar and fifty cents now, which is allot for slow and unfriendly transportation. When I can, I get rides from my parents to school but this is somewhat inconvenient to them and they work hard to help support me and my siblings.

I've worked on independent films as a script supervisor and production assistant in the past to make extra money to pay tuition and personal expenses. However in the last few months work has been slow and my savings have dwindled (I couldn't buy a medium pizza right now). If I was more mobile I could probably get more work but relying on parents and the bus make me an otherwise reliable person somewhat unreliable.

Though I would like a car, that is not a practical option at this time due to the cost of insurance,registration,and fuel. Instead I am interested in getting a 50cc motorbike due to the fact they do not need to be registered,insured, and they're economical. I will insure the bike to be on the cautious side. A quality secondhand bike costs between $900-$1500.If you can or feel like helping me it is going to a great cause and it will be appreciated.

This situation has been going on for my entire life. Now that I am 21 I can understand it a little more and instead of feeling helpless, I want to take action and help my father get better. I grew up in a dysfunctional family and I have had no role model or support my entire life, I have practically raised myself. I have moved out and I am putting myself through school and I don't rely on anyone for help but I really need help when it comes to this. My father is an alcoholic/drug abuser and that's what his life revoloves around, he can't support his own kids let alone himself. My little sister is in high school and still lives with him but she shouldn't have to go through the emotional stress and abuse he causes. My younger sister has to work to try to support herself because he spends all of his money. Instead of being a normal kid she has to figure out how she is going to pay for her own car, school, and more importantly food like I do. I do buy her groceries and help her out I can deal with that but I cannot pay for the help my father needs. This has to stop and if I don't take action now no one else will and his life is going to stay in a downward spiral. I really would love to have a father in my life and I don't want to wait until it's too late. He needs rehab and I know it costs alot of money, I have no idea how much but If I can just get some help besides relying on my own income I could make this possible. Please, please help me I cannot do this alone.

I'm a biology student who is attempting to return to college in January. I've applied and received enough financial aid and loans to help me pay for living expenses once I begin class. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a job. I live in a small town with very little opportunity. My financial aid won't be available to me until the second week of February, which means I need to survive for nearly three months before I can move to a bigger town, where I'll have more opportunity for finding a job. I've tried to figure out how much I would need to get by and I've come up with 800-1000 per month. I've been doing odd jobs whenever I can pick one up and have been relying on local charitable organizations for food, but I'm still always hungry. If I could just make it until February I would be okay. Any help, in any amount, would be truly appreciated. Thank you.

My name is Matt. A few years ago I started a non-profit organization to encourage students to pursue careers in science, math and technology. There's a tremendous shortage of engineers and scientists in the country. I thought this was a need I could help with. For awhile, I worked on it while also having a regular "day" job as a software programmer and website developer. Earlier this year, I realized the workload had become too much to have two full-time jobs, so I left my "day" job to focus on the non-profit. Of course, this isn't a good time for non-profit organizations or charities. In fact, donations and grants are almost zero at this point.

The organization is the Aerospace Research & Engineering Systems Institute, Inc., http://www.aresinstitute.org. If you visit the website and click on the "About" link, you can read more about it and there's also a link to the official IRS registration of our 501 c(3) tax-exempt status.

So, here's the situation...

Since the spring, I've put as much as I can into the company from my personal assets to keep it alive. I've sacrificed my car, luxuries like cable TV (ALL luxuries, in fact) and have even reduced my food budget to next-to-nothing. I'm actually relying on friends donations of food and household items otherwise I'd be down and out for sure.

I do NOT have any credit card debt; do NOT have student loans; have NOT lived beyond my means; and I have never bought luxury items or things not necessary to live. In short, I live within my means and sacrifice as much as I need to. I haven't been foolish by running up credit cards, buying a house or car that I can't afford or going to movies and vacations when I can't afford it. In other words, I know I'm doing the right thing and playing by the "rules" such as they are.

I'll also point out that I have been employed, full-time, since the 1990's. I still work every day, 12+ hours, and don't intend to change that.

So, no debt, full-time job, what's the problem? The problem is that I put so much into the non-profit that I am not exactly financially self-sufficient right now. Worse than that, more importantly, the non-profit (like many these days) is struggling to remain viable. There's just no money out there it seems.

Because of that, I'm turning to any resource I can find on the internet and off in order to ask the good people who are around for assistance. I'm not asking for any specific amount - $1 or $100, it's all helpful. It will help me personally as well as my company as it tries to make it through the recession as well.

If anyone out there can help, please use the PayPal Donate button on here. I can't offer anything in return except eternal gratitude, although I wish I could do more.

Thanks so much.

I am a 27 years old and down on my luck. I moved into an apartment I cannot afford with my former significant other who decided to be with someone else, sticking me with the Rent. I am facing eviction unless I can come up with the money and I am very scared. I have no family except for relatives who live thousands of miles away, I live on my own. My mom had passed away last year to cancer, she was pretty much the only closest blood relative to me. I am not a single parent or anything, just a single victim of unfortunate circumstances. I do have a job, not a great job, but a job, but I cannot get an advance I already asked. My income from this job has already been budgeted to pay for other bills. My credit cards are maxed out, I have already requested a student loan deferment. I talked to the landlords and explained the situation, but they also say they hear these types of stories from tenants all the time, and will have to proceed with finding someone who can pay. I am now relying on the kindness of strangers.

I AM A REAL PERSON AND AM WILLING TO PROVE THIS.
I would be happy to respond to emails and answer any questions.


A little bit about me:
I am, ambitious but humble. I do my best to give my time to others and help them out. My overall dream is to go back to school and become a teacher, so I can be in a rewarding career. That is for when I can secure the loan money.
I am trying to get loans and grants, but I am having a hard time gathering enough money for basic necessities. This is my desperate attempt to make my life easier and then to make my educational goals a reality.

I have just a couple weeks left to make this happen. I am hoping and praying that enough fellow internet users will read this post and find it in their hearts to make a small contribution.

I must stress that this is NOT A SCAM. I am just a regular person desperately trying to make ends meet.Again, I am willing to answer any questions to prove that I am an actual person in need.

Any and all donations are tremendously appreciated. If you would like to donate, I have a PayPal account which I can send my email upon response.

Thank you so much for your time. God bless.

Hello there. I am Francis F P Soriano, RPh, MD, a 35 year old resident doctor of Air Force General Hospital from the Philippines. I sincerely would like to ask for your sincere help. I am honestly seeking out websites hoping an individual or group of individuals would help a gentle patient of mine in whom I became attached with.

I have patient ES, a 65 year old elderly pleasant woman who came to our institution because of abdominal pain and was later diagnosed to have stage 4 colon cancer with metastases. She has less than a year to live following protocol.

However, in my personal opinion, I think otherwise. A lot of things about diseases and illnesses have been going on and even the worst cases would be healed. An alternative would be the way and I think I could help my patient avail of 4life Transfer Factor Plus.

I believe in this product which became a window of opportunity for sick persons to get well. Because of hundreds of amazing testimonials, I became an advocate of 4life and I sincerely would like to be their forefronts of hope to all other patients needing to believe that Life is good.

4life is the company with this encouraging organic dietary supplement which became a promising avenue of hope to those who are ill.

I really don't know what to say or expect. I am not a rich man Sir/Madame. If I would, I would have helped this woman stand to his feet and healed her long time ago. I would like to treat her on my own volition, but I need you sir/Madame by the grace of God to spare a little and make everything sustainable so that the money will be used to her recovery and Praise God she will be.

May you find time to read the story ... Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand, Matthew 14:13-20. I believe that God would provide. It became my personal motto since becoming a Christian since 1995.

Apparently, I am very eager to start her on Transfer Factor Plus because we are against time. (Another patient of mine is amazingly controlling the effects of malignancy, stage 4 Breast CA with bone metastasis, and she is in no pain at all).

Financially, we don't simply have the means. Even for me, the cost is staggering. I am in training mode and I earn only more or less 220 USD per month. I have a family to support with 1 kid. She and his immediate family are not much capable of buying approximately 63 bottles of Transfer Factor Plus x 90 caplets amounting to more or less 3,525 USD (56 dollars per bottle)

I am planning of letting her take by mouth 7 caplets 3x a day for 6 months.

How I wish I could make an impact to her life and her family in soonest time possible. I would like to simply help her. I and even she and her family simply do not have the means.

I firmly believe that God, relying not to my own understanding, would somehow and in some way provide Mrs. Seriosa the much needed Transfer Factor Plus. I know God will touch your heart and give and help my patient whom I care about. This is my affirmation of pledge to my patient.

Let this be my testimony of hope and eventual deliverance. Thank you and God bless you all.

Sincerely,

Francis F P Soriano, RPh, MD
