Dear Sir or Madam,

We are an average family who have fallen upon very hard times. My wife was let go from her work about 18 months ago with no severance pay and has been unable to find any payable employment since... she has been volunteering at the local school as a classroom assistant but really could do with finding some new work soon.

As you can imagine with my wifes income lost to us things have been tight for a while now so it was an awful second blow when my employers went into administration and the factory was finally closed with all employees laid off, again with no severance pay just over 6 months ago now by the Administrators... we had been hopeful of a buyout but it didn't happen and the whole lot of us were placed onto the scrapheap. As it was we had no payrise for the previous four years...

Things are now hitting crisis point for me and my family, I have only been able to find 4 weeks of paying work in the last six months... we have sold the family car to try and keep my daughter in college and have the house up for sale in the hope we can pay off the capital and start renting but if we don't make this next mortgage payment the bank are going to start foreclosure on us... as for my slightly younger son and his college future that is currently looking very unlikely...

The family pets (2 Cats and 1 Staffie Dog) are as much a part of this family as any of us yet we are now with great reluctance and heartfelt pain considering having to give them up to a the local rescue centre... I think I will cry a thousand tears if I have to let them go but I need to be pratical and focus on my wife and children and putting them first... For I will cry a million tears if I let them down any further than I already have...

Any HELP you can give us will be most gratefully received and a prayer of thanks will be said for every penny.

God Bless you and God Bless America.

Many thanks for reading this.

This situation has become a nightmare! I am 65 retired and slightly disabled due to a auto accident over a year ago. I have a hard time walking and this has me house bound most of the time. My wife is recovering from a stroke and taking care of her needs is a full time job. We barely exist on a meager social security income and several months ago I was forced to take out a payday loan just to keep the lights on. We maxed out our small credit card just to buy food and gas for our car and now every month we pay off the loan plus finance charges and then we have to take the loan out again the next day or else we cant pay our bills and buy food. With the credit card used up we have no where to turn for help. I know there are many who need help more than us, but if some kind person could lend a helping hand we will be able to pass the favor on to someone else in turn.

Hi i am posting on here as a last resort we have been threatened with eviction from our apartment if we dont pay our landland within the next 6 days, we both have been unable to find work due to injurys from a car crash we were both involved in (i have scar tissue in my neck which makes moving slightly extremely painful), all we have is each other and we really wont be able to survive on the streets ANY kind of contribution would be a help to keep a roof above our heads, we both would we be eternally grateful

HI I am a mum of 2 young children,My husband lost his job due to getting severe kidney stones every year for the last 6 years.He gets admitted to hospital and is in for at least 5 weeks.We are no closer to getting to the bottom of the cause.
My problem is when I was 18 I had a breast augmentation (enlarged) as my confidence was 0.Luckily at this time my parents paid the bill.The implants are not for life they last at least 10m - 15 years,having had 2 children they have suffered slightly, I need them re-done, although most of you may think it's a vanity thing it's not.Even if I just had them taken out I would need to pay and then be left with nothing.My husband and I are doing our best, and as we have spent my operation deposit just to live.
please help x x x

and thanks for reading this,that in itself is appreciated, I am not really sure how this works but a friend told me about this after reading about it in a magazine article.
Well let me start at the begining, for the last 20 years I have worked for the same company and never had a days sickness, yes not one single day, in October 2011 I went to work one day and just quit felling I had just had enough, I did not tell them I was feeling depressed & suicidal and sick, I just said I no longer want to work here and I left that day.
As I was depressed and on the verge of killing myself, something I had actually felt for many years, I spent the next three days at home not washing,cleaning or speaking to anyone, I looked on the internet and searched "The best way to commit suicide" I was that low, I had no money and in fact had huge debts, to my friends and family I was always the strong one always the one person they could rely on,but reality was I was a broken man my spirit my soul was empty I wanted to die.
After those three days of no sleep and thoughts of how I would die I took a shower, whilst in the shower I just completely broke down I just lay on the floor in uncontrolable crying I just lay there for about an hour, and suddenly it came to me that I needed to speak to some one and quick.
Enter my Sister, since childhood my Sister has been like a mother to me(My own mother left when I was 3) she is truly a beautiful person a wonderful role model and just the most fantastic spirited person I know. Why I had not just told her how I felt at the start I just dont know, because we talk about everything, maybe its the depression and anxiety of it all, I dont know.
I called her in tears and told her I need her to come over, she was here within half an hour, we spent the day crying she more than me, I was kinda cried out, she had never seen me cry since I was probably ten years old, that is probably a sadness in itself.
She did everything for me in those early days, took me to my Doctors a Doctors I had not been to in 10 years, it had been that long that when we booked the appointment I was informed my Doctor died 4 years ago. Anyway I was put under a mental health program and prescribed Anti-depressants and also some sleeping tablets(these killed me my spirit and thoughts were numbed). my sister has been my Angel my saviour, there is no doubt in my mind I would be dead now if it was not for my sister, thinks are still bad, very bad at times, but I see my sister every day she comes around cooks,talks does coffee and is constantly on the phone(sometimes this does my head in) but I understand that she is scared that I may harm myself,she has come to the doctors and psychiatrist with my giving me huge support and a hand to hold that I needed, I cant tell you in words how special she is to me, I am not actually suicidal at the moment although I still think if I got a terminal illness this would be ideal, mad I know but I am being honest, I have huge debts and on sick benefit but this is not enough to live on or enough to pay debts. I actually owe £50,000 and I know this will never be paid so I will lose my home and everything else that goes with bankruptcy, but I will always have my sister their supporting me, she has helped me financially for three months but I dont want this to continue its wrong.
Well now to my BEG, well I dont want money for my debts I understand they are way too much to ever believe I can pay them back, no the reason I want help is because later this year my sister is 50 yes the big Five O and for the last three years she has been kinda planning what she will do and where she will go, she has decided that she wants to rent a Villa in Spain and have all her friends & family come for one week, when we discussed this last year obviuosly I was always included in this week, but I do not want her paying for me its Her birthday after all, I will not be able to pay my own way and I will not be working in the next few months as I am soon to under go councilling, the truth is I dont really want to go as I am actually feeling stressed about it all, hoping it goes away, but at the same time I understand how much it means to her to have me there, I know she wont take no for an answer and will want to pay for me.
All I ask is that if anyone on here could donate so I can at least pay some part in some way to my own way.She is not going until August or September and I think it will cost around £300 as a guess maybe slightly more.
If just a little from a lot of people then I can make some head way, or if you just want to mail me if you have similar problems as I have learned that talking problems through does help.
I know its a long beg but I want you to know the background.
Thanks for reading and hopefully you can help in some small way.

Hi, this is the first time I have cyber begged and would appreciate any help that can be given to me.

I am South African but live in the United Kingdom. I would love to go and visit my parents who are still in South Africa but I am finding it hard to save the money in these economic times. My parents are in their early 70's and I feel that I should see them sooner rather than later. I would like to mention that my parents are not ill and neither am I.

The cost for flights are just slightly over £1,000 or $1,600. I am almost halfway there - saved £458 so far.

I would appreciate any help that are given to me whether it is just £0.01 or more. I promise to email anybody pictures that would like to see the reunion. I am hoping to have saved enough by November of this year.

Thank you for looking and even if you don't donate thanks for taking the time to read this.

Hi beat the prophecy of Nostradumus that the end of the World in
the year 2012.
i dreamed in early month of 2011 that the entire world is drowning
in a great flood, but few people were boating on a large coin
shaped platform written 1912, and they were being escaped,
i repeated this dream, then i tried to find the coin, then I got the coin of
Rs. 1/4 by GEORGE V KING EMPEROR , THE YEAR OF 1912,
at in our home`s temple it was my mom`s memory is being gifted
to us. I happily hold it in my worship place again.
then furtherly i saw the same dream 3-4 times again then i thought
that might it would be a sign for the world or about the person who
is the only one in the world, so i slightly think that i will sell it on web
, and before just 10 days i dreamed the same dream so i am now
on the net for One of the world.

Our life has been amazing together, nothing short of a fairytale. We met and began building our life together three years ago and were married this past August. My wife accepted a new position with slightly lower pay an extra hour away from my job and college classes, but we moved because her new boss assured us she'd have more flexibility and opportunity for advancement in the new position. Here it is four months later and everything my wife's new boss told us has been a lie, she guaranteed 32 hours a week, and even before cutting my wife down to "only when needed" less than 16 hours a week she was really only getting about 25 hours a week. The increased cost of commute meant my weekend job was only netting me 20 dollars a day for 6 hours work and a two and a half hour commute, so I had to lose that, and as the money dwindled I had to drop out of college because I couldn't afford both food and gas. I've been looking for work for three months, with a few interviews, but no luck, and now we just have to move away anyways. We were tempted out here with the promise of possible advancement in my wife's future and a deal to rent some of her boss's property with all utilities included, what we got was our savings decimated and had to cover all of the costs of our utilities. We're broke, we owe more in heating oil than we have in the bank, my wife's unemployment doesn't even cover our rent, we're at least 2 hours from the nearest town we have any attachment to or family in, we can't afford the uhaul to get out of the economic black hole of a town we've moved to, let alone the money to rent a new apartment. We have no jobs, I lost a semester's worth of tuition and work, with no prospect on being able to return to my degree anytime soon. To be blunt, we are desperate, if we sell everything we own we could only hope to recoup at most 3000 dollars, and that includes the car and the computer. We don't know what else to do except ask for help.

Hi I'm 23, my boyfriend John's almost 25, and we have an 8-month-old daughter, Jade. We moved from Austin, Texas to Portland, Oregon and had planned to stay with my boyfriend's brother Freddy, his girlfriend LaWanda, and their 3-year-old son Jack, until John got a job so we could get our own place. Just a few days after arriving, LaWanda left with Jack and filed a restraining order saying falsely that Freddy had pushed her at a time when we and one of his friends were all there, and despite him having three witnesses and she having none as well as telling a slightly different story on the stand than what she filed on paper, it all came down to she's a black woman and he's a big white bearded tree-trimming MAN and she won, which meant he as well as we were forced out of the house and we spent ALL of our money on camping, hotels, food, and renter applications, until finally one reluctant property management agency allowed a jobless family to move in provided we pay a near $2,000 deposit + a month and 1/2's worth of rent which wiped us out down to little under 20 cents. John very quickly got his job and works as many shifts as he can, but he's partly here for school (which luckily his mother is paying for), so money is always tight, and this last week we had to survive off of his tips day to day.

We have no bed. We have to watch how much water and heat we use. We're hungry a lot, I'm rapidly losing weight due to not eating enough and breastfeeding, and most of my clothes are too big for me now. No pants in Portland at this time of year sucks horribly, even my belts won't fit and I've driven new holes in them and everything. My mind is suffering, I'm forgetting what I'm saying a lot. Food stamps help but John still has to use his money to make ends meet, and too often we have to choose between milk and toilet paper. I can't work because I have a child and the best I can do to make money is waitress anyway, so if I worked, the money would just swing right around into child care and I'm not going to work so someone else can raise my kid. Even strip clubs out here are barren, so it's not about what I'm not willing to do for my daughter, I'm really stuck. We're stuck. Relatives are oblivious to how hard things are for us and only send clothes and toys for our daughter, but nothing we actually need. One of my aunts did send a $50 gift card for one of the most expensive grocery stores in town, which was nice, but at the same time, not very helpful. I could have made it go further elsewhere and I still need clothes. I have no pants that fit me now, too many sun dresses and short skirts for this season and two light jackets. What? I'm from Texas, it never gets cold there. Please, please, please help me!

Hi my name is mariana miller and im a proud single mother of two. I do everything for my girls because they both deserve it. Im slightly ashamed to say im struggling financially and i dont have enough money to make ends meet, let alone provide them with a good christmas. Ive been unemployed since january 2011,due to my position being eliminated at work and my unemployment was exhausted this Oct. Since then ive been cleanin houses and I make tamales everyday to try and sell them but at a dollar per tamale it only takes me so far. My food stamps were cut off due to an error at the public aid office and my girls Mia (5) and Alisa (17) had to suffer a bit but all is well thanks to community food pantrys. Ive always thaught my girls how to survive while struggling and my oldest tells me "dont worry mom everythings going to b ok" but it stills breaks my heart that i cant have enough food this month not even to make tamales. Due to this temp. error i cant pay my rent,bills or nessesities, i really dont know where me and my girls are heading but we are all going to stay strong and just pray for the best. All I really want is to provide them with a beautiful decorated tree with presents underneath. my little girl needs clothes,shoes, toys. She has been begging nintendo dsi,she has played with it at doctors office while waiting and just loves it. My teenager wants stuff other teens want, like UGG boots size 7, Northface coat and a laptop. Honestly she really needs the laptop because she just got accepted to northeastern university. Yes Im very PROUD:). But she tells me that she understands my situation and she does cause she is very mature but my heart would be at ease if my girls got the christmas they deserve. I promise to pay it forward. Please help me give my girls a big smile on christmas.thank you in advance. marianadreams7194@comcast.net

I really need help, I have taken in my Sister and 2 nieces after her husband had been arrested for molestation. My sister doesn't work...she has epilepsy but has been denied for disability. We moved into a slightly larger home so it could accommodate myself, my son, my sister, and my 2 nieces. I can't afford to pay all the bills and find myself seriously short this month, and wont be able to pay the $1900 rent for September. I work full time, but trying to support myself and 4 other people is getting to be too much. I can't send my sister back as she is in a terrible situation with her husband and is trying to get a divorce. I would greatly appreciate any help that can be given.

I really need help, I have taken in my Sister and 2 nieces after her husband had been arrested for molestation. My sister doesn't work...she has epilepsy but has been denied for disability. We moved into a slightly larger home so it could accommodate myself, my son, my sister, and my 2 nieces. I can't afford to pay all the bills and find myself seriously short this month, and wont be able to pay the $1900 rent for September. I work full time, but trying to support myself and 4 other people is getting to be too much. I can't send my sister back as she is in a terrible situation with her husband and is trying to get a divorce. I would greatly appreciate any help that can be given.

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.

Do you believe in true love? I do, and I may always believe if bestowed the proper provisions.

She was the only thing that saved me from a life of crime and possibly worse, and she came all the way from Argentina to do so. I was, as I am now, a poor student in Colorado and a "lucky bum" who finally got a break by love finding him. Currently I study foreign language, ie; Spanish, French, German, Russian, and Latin. As impressively smart as one would assume i'd have to be to study so many languages at once, to the contrary I was terribly stupid where it matters most, which is at romance. In short because of being a total " fat -head" and ingrate, I let her get on a plane out of my life without saying goodbye. Its been over a year.

Since then, my nights have been like torture without her, and each new romantic fling has been as hollow and meaningless as the preceding. The good news is however, that her and I have keep frequent contact via SKYPE.COM video calls.(thank God 4 skype!) She is in the same position as I am, realizing that she too cannot find closure to our love, and therefore we have decided that we want to be together, except forever this time. So I decided to move to Buenos Aires, Argentina indefinitely to be with the only girl for me.

However it is not enough for me to just get a plane ticket and rush over to South America and live happily ever after, I will also need a job, as well as a room or a hostel to stay in while I job hunt. ( Quite frankly, I am not trying to be unemployed,broke, and living in her mother's house in S. America, no thanks!) Therefore I am also hoping to earn/receive enough money to enroll in a program called ITTO or (International Teachers Training Organization) in Guadalajara, Mexico to receive my license to teach English as a second language(TESL) before going to live in Buenos Aires.

Target date you ask? I am trying to get out of here by early september or october of 2011. As it stands I am basically homeless, out of school for vacation, (meaning no financial aid) and have been doing temporary labor jobs which barely keeps me fed on the weekly basis, let alone permit me to save money for the provisions necessary to go on this life altering journey to find the truth of true love.

All together, I estimate with the cost of a round trip ticket to Argentina ( round trip, because non- citizens are not permitted with one way tickets) as well as the cost of the fore mentioned ITTO course and travel to and from Mexico from Colorado, plus the survival money I will need once ( god willing) I arrived in B's A's, I stand in a financial need of about $5,000.00 or slightly more.

I realize there are people with more important matters that can use money, and I truly hope they receive charity just as I would like to. However this is a petition for those who understand what it is like to let the perfect one get away and could do little or nothing about it, like a child who drops their ice cream off the cone and sadly watches as it melts on the side walk. By donating to this cause, you can be the "adult" who walks up to that kid, fumbles in his pocket for some spare change to present that poor kid with a new ice cream that takes the tears from their eyes. She is my ice cream, and I don't want another flavor for my whole life. You can help make this possible, by aiding me with an airline ticket, or even check out the ITTO website and if you feel generous enough and pay the tuition of the program. I would be more than happy to correspond with each and every donor to update you on this story with letters and even pictures of what became of your generosity.

I'd like to thank any donors in advance, as well as any one who took the time to read my story and had it in their heart to give but wasn't able. Together we can prove that there is a such things as second chances at a good thing, chivalry is certainly not dead, and love stories aren't just for the story books, in fact...it can happen to you!

Thanks and warm regards,

Please help me pay my tuition fees!

Hello everyone,
This is slightly embarrassing for me but my last resort as I have been constantly turned down for credit.
Im 21 years old and currently in my last year of education with about £600 left to pay. If I do not pay this by July I will be unable to attend graduation/ receive certificates etc. Im currently working 30 hours a week for minimum wage and have managed to pay the other 2700 myself. However I'm struggling to find this money in such a short space of time. I come from a family that's never had much money and unfortunately due to the recession was forced to go bankrupt, we just couldn't pay the mortgage any more. Living on the governments budget, especially when there are still young children, is very tight and it's hard to find any extra cash, even whilst working. The fact my family are so poor makes it that much more important for my parents that I'm getting an education. I know they will blame themselves if i'm unable to graduate.
I would appreciate any donations towards my final balance. Thank you very much in advance

Hello, I am a type 1 diabetic since birth and I am 32 years old. I have been fighting to get SSI because I have a number of complications of being diabetic. My vision is slightly affected. I wear high prescrption glasses. I have numerous other issues that are from having diabetes for a long time and they all prevent me from keeping a job. I've lost alot of jobs because I get sick too often and have to call in sick. I am always in pain to some degree from neuropathy and from having previous injuries to my back, knees and my shoulder. I still try doing little side jobs to keep up with bills but I am rapidly falling behind on everything. In order to advance my SSI case I need to find an attorney to help me out but most of the ones I found will either not take my case or require money up front with no refund if I cannot win. Please help me so I can keep lights, water, gas and an internet connection to keep in touch with my family who lives far away from me, thanks in advance... -Matt

I'm not just begging for money and giving nothing in return, I have created a slightly entertaining cyber panhandling site, AintToProudToBeg.com, you can visit and read through to give to give to our online group of beggars if you feel like it. We're not on the street or anything but we could use some extra walking around money if you feel like sparing it and you find our online begging presentation worthy of buck! You can go to www.AintToProudToBeg.com or just use the Paypal email listed here! It never hurts to ask!

I'm a current undergrad student at the University of GA needing some extra money to help pay bills. Although Georgia's HOPE scholarship is paying my tuition, I am funding the rest of my education myself. I have taken out student loans, but with rent, utilities, books and various fees, my part-time job barely gives me enough money to get by. My family is slightly supportive, but there's only so much they can help me out with. Any extra money is greatly needed!! I am trying my hardest to survive on my own and provide some sort of life for myself, but I've realized I need some help. Thanks in advance!!
