Posted by Impossibledreamer on 2012-05-24 06:58:50

What if you could you could have funded Jk Rowling before Harry Potter.
What if Stephenie Meyer came to you and asked for a helping hand.
2 Female icons of the book reading world.
Now what if.
You had the chance to help an Australian writer.Who has developed and written something that has never been seen before has the potential to change the world longterm to make it a better place.And has the possibilty to unite the world in a common goal.
And what if .
All that is stopping her is $10000 australian dollars to put the last pieces in place for launch August 1st.
What if what was stopping her is that she is living on the breadline and has funded it all with the help of a couple of just as poor friends.
And what if.
With your donation you help fund this amazing enterprise and helped take the financial restraints off a world first
To be able to fly and become not just a hardworked for dream,
by a mum and wife.But also to know you actually helped this happen.What if you gave a little and it meant alot.What if she has a consuming passion that whether or not she recieves a cent.
It will be launched.
Which it will.
And what if. It was so lucarative that she could give back 10% on every item sold to charities that make a difference.
And she will.It's part of the infrastructure of the creation.
What if .You get very few details on this business as it is a world 1st and 1 word describing it will have copycats before you can say Bank loan.

All I can say is.I believe in this product and is able long term to make not just a financial difference to the world but a cultural difference.It causes no harm and can only bring joy.And any age will be able to get involved.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

Need help before my family becomes homeless!!!

Posted by joshflann on 2012-04-26 17:58:45

***Please take the time to read this!!!***

My familiy and I have been struggling for some months now. I have an 18 month old son, and another boy on the way.

With work hours becoming short, and a lay-off soon on the way, I have fell short on paying for my bills, and haven't been able to put any money into my rent. This week I wasn't even ablet to afford putting gas in my vehivle to get to work!!

My landlord is threatening to evict me if I don't give him money ASAP. He's going to be stopping by tomorrow (Friday) night to take the keys...

I'm normally not the one to beg, and while I can make do being homeless, I know my son can't. He is the one and only reason I'm on here, BEGGING for help.

My rent, plus late fees, is $1,010. Go ahead and say it... it's a lot, I should find a different place... etc. But I don't have any money at all to go anywhere else, and if I could just get help getting through this month.. I know I could find another/better job and fix everything. I know because I've already got interviews lined up... but I need money now to keep my home!

I even want to pay all the money back that I get from anyone, PLUS INTEREST! I hate begging, but this is for my son, and I will do anything to keep him safe and keep his home for him. Please think of him... please help us!

Start Up Funds for Pay it Forward Saving Homes Company

Posted by fullcircledream on 2012-03-27 20:58:52

I want to start something special. I want to start a "pay it forward" kind of collaborative for homeowners that are in trouble. I lost my home 3 years ago and have been saving homes ever since. I have worked to shady loan mod companies but now work for a great law firm stopping sale dates and negotiating with lenders all day. I love it. I would like to begin with a website and blog with real life experiences and answers. I would also process loan modifications and apply for principle reductions, negotiate with lenders, stop sale dates for a small sliding scale fee. I would need ideally $5,000 to start for the software and website. I save homes everyday and watch people pay up to 4500 for the work that I do. Anyways, if you wish to reach out to me you can email me at fullcircledream@gmail.com or call (562) 264-5670. Thanks so much. Tracy thanks so much.

Single Mom Needs To Catch Up On Bills

Posted by singlemommy on 2012-03-24 00:58:19

Hello,

I am a single mother of 2 boys under 4 years old in age. Recently, I became sick for two weeks and had to take off work which caused me to become behind in bills. I am looking for a way to catch up any donations are accepted.

Thanks in advance for stopping by and reading my story.

Steven: An Aspiring Disabled, Student, Veteran, and Divorcee

Posted by youngidealist on 2012-03-05 01:58:00

Hi.

Thanks for taking the time to read my request. I'm 30 years old, still in college and living with my parents. I've made a lot of great accomplishments in my life with far less support than most people who make it this far. Of course, with that said I've also made plenty of mistakes.

I grew up with a single parent, and another parent who visited annually just to stir up emotions and make my life miserable. When I was 18, I decided to work really hard to lose weight so that I could join the US Air Force. I had a strict plan that I was going to follow to succeed in life.

Unfortunately my superiors in the USAF would not accommodate that plan to independence as they forced me to find my own way from the barracks to work (a 40 mi drive), so I had to immediately struggle to get my drivers licence and I had to buy a car on an Airman's paygrade.

My income wasn't enough to afford the car and gas and other living needs that I was expected to pay, so eventually I had to leave the Air Force before my term was up (under honorable conditions). I tried to work as a civilian. The transfer was tough and I was vastly uninformed about what to do and what my options were. I'm the first first generation college student of my extended family.

After some petty jobs that would each take more than 10 years to be able to earn enough to live independently, I finally found a nice nighttime custodian job that was at least simple enough for that kind of pay. I was the night time custodian, but I was also a guy to have on call at this retirement home where I worked. If people's toilets flooded or a nearly deaf resident left their tv on past quiet hours (once I could hear one through 3 floors!) I was the guy to send up to fix it.

Having my first satisfying job as a civilian, I was able to investigate community college during the day, so eventually I enrolled and tried taking a few classes while working full-time. College was my saving grace. I never felt like I belonged anywhere until I first started to take college courses in math, science, and philosophy. I found the tutoring lounge on campus, made a lot of friends there, and I spent many hours cramming and helping those in need.

This soon led to me finding financial aid, making arrangements with my parents (my mom and my stepfather) to let me go to school full-time while I lived with them, and putting in my 2 weeks notice at work to focus exclusively on school.

My counselors advised that I pick where I want to transfer to and then figure out the details of how to get there after I got accepted. I think this was bad advice. While I ended up choosing to transfer to a university that had my desired major, Biophysics, it was 60 miles away from where my parents lived. My car that I had bought when I was in the Air Force also eventually broke down from not being able to afford maintenance while I worked, and was towed away for being in the public street for too long.

Finally, I got accepted to UC San Diego to work towards a degree in Physics with a specialty in Biophysics. When it came time to transfer, I got as involved as I could on how and when I was supposed to receive the financial aid so that I could go get an apartment and everything, and my school kept telling me, "you should get it tomorrow" until about 2 weeks into my first quarter when I finally got the support.

Despite this rocky start, I managed to get into a good shape for myself, making my way slowly but surely through school. Learning a great deal. Eventually when I felt the struggle was too difficult, I changed my major to Neuroscience before I began my upper division coursework.

So, as I settled into my schooling and struggled with maintaining financial independence on financial aid, I managed to get myself into maintaining a great aquarium hobby, owned two great little kittens from a street cat program, led as president of a student organization for one year, and eventually I got married. I also carefully learned about the stock market and managed to make some great gains with money that I had invested from financial aid savings.

In 2010, my gains were over 100%. That amounted to $2000 doubling itself, but still, that says a lot about me as a trader. However, 6 months into my marriage, she said she wanted out, grabbed the car that we both paid into (most of the money was mine from stocks; $5500 worth), and refused to pay her share of 2 months rent. That happened in December of the year of 2010.

2011 was a difficult year for me. I fought hard to maintain things, especially my head, but it was tough. I lost 45 lbs from exercising regularly, made lots of new friends, and I got some volunteer work experience in a Neuroscience lab. But I just couldn't focus well enough to maintain my finances and my grades, so I had to drop out and live back with my parents.

Despite how tough it's been, not finding work, struggling with the ins and outs of the VA, and just needing a professional therapist to talk to and help me keep my head straight but never being able to get one, I've managed to recuperate well enough and learn a lot more about this bottom floor of society that I've been so desperately trying to escape my whole life.

I've gone looking for opportunity in every direction. I've tried changing my career goals, collecting recyclables, writing online, trying any online scheme that didn't include me forking out money to get it, imagining what I could write as a novel, tried to make money through playing video games, making goal after goal after goal for myself, but still just not being able to get just the right amount of money to put me back on my feet.

I'll be going back to school in April at the risk of having to do it as a homeless person if the VA doesn't pull through for me. They recently approved my 10% service connected disability status and now I need to jump over a few more hurdles to get my more significant service connected disabilities recognized. I'm also seeing what the vocational rehab people can do for me despite the bureaucratic issues that are stopping them from helping me all the way.

BTW, this whole time that I've gone through life with common lower class difficulties, I've been disabled with a number of small conditions that all add up to a hard time. I have lower back issues that the military has yet to own up to. Community college found also that I have a learning disability which makes some intellectual tasks show up as lower than average ability for me while the rest of my intellect is high enough to expect that I could easily get a Masters Degree or a PhD. My biggest difficulty in school is that they don't give me enough time to show them what I know or what I'm capable of.

From working with special needs students as a tutor, I have proven to myself that there is a major problem in the education system. Most teachers never simplify the material into a clear picture of what they want to teach. If you want someone to learn something, the last thing you should be fuzzy on is what it is exactly that you want them to learn. We can't all work like intuitive Jedi or sophisticated parrots.

If you help me out, here is a list of the priorities of what your money will go towards, in order of their priority If you would like to request that I spend your donation on a specific cause, please let me know:

1. A working cheap economic vehicle.
I need something that I can sleep in and that will take me wherever I need to go. Preferably something that can stow quite a few recyclables as well to pay for gas, but not an SUV or truck or van (Unless that's all that is cheap of course. Not likely but you never know.).
I'll aim for great gas mileage, but I'm thinking that I should attend some police car auctions to see what the cheapest deal I can find is. This car would make a great shelter for me while I return to my far away school.

2. Investing on the stock market.
Trust me, I know how to fish. If you want to send me a request for proof I'd be glad to compose some evidence of my finest moments as well as my worst to show you that I can do well for myself on the stock market, even during the recession. What I could really use right now, is a little bait. Trading is good money for me, but to make enough to make gains worth more than the commission cost (about $10), you need about $300-1000 per investment. $300 is more for the high risk lottery plays on the market. I even made a blog about it if you would like to see:
http://www.squidoo.com/TheYoungidealistEconomyBlog
If you are willing, we can arrange something personal so that you wont need to worry about me putting the money you offer at high risk and blow it all. Might even be able to arrange something where I could make money for you to prove myself before accepting your donation. Whatever the case, I know we'd have to make it a personal arrangement to satisfy the current laws.

3. Working towards paying my debts to my friends.
My friends have been really supportive through these hard times, though they are starving students themselves. To keep up my morale they've bought me food, given me a place to crash when they could, and even paid to have me join them at fun local events. I have some money that I've promised them back, and I plan on making due on those promises as soon as possible.

4. Paying off my debts with companies.
I've had times where I couldn't afford to pay for rent and had to leave, like when my wife left me to live with her parents. These issues follow me on my credit score and I would like to work towards removing them so that I can turn my life around.

5. Getting a good start towards paying off my student loans.
I know I won't be able to pay them off before I find a good career with my degree. I would just like to have something to start making some automatic payments with and put that part of my bad credit score behind me as well.

6. Buying a home.
My mom never owned a home. No offense meant to land lords out there, but I really think the rental system is way out of line. My mom was always a hard worker. Way better than me, yet she could never own a home because she didn't have the money. Meanwhile, people with money could live in great big houses for less than she even had to pay.
I want a house to own. Probably start with a condo and seek ways to improve it and flip a profit out of it. Then I want to keep building up money from housing until I can manage to build an apartment building.
If I could, I'd like to make an apartment building near a university that offers cheap housing using the Japanese capsule model or something even more economic and more comfortable.

7. Making an online tutoring site meant to offer free tutoring and tutoring for tips. Imagine a site (I have yet to know of one) where people can collect their resources on a class, much like they collect info on ratemyprofessor.com, but also seek help from others who are taking the class or who have taken the class. Donors like you can offer money to tutors who post their notes and stories on the site, alongside ratings from other students that they helped.
Some tutors can offer their rates for help, sell their notes online for cheap, or just offer their help whenever they can and ask to be tipped through paypal if someone likes their work. My hope is that such a site could help to put an end to sophistry in the college system once and for all, making education easy and affordable for everyone.

8. After I have everything I'm hoping for above, the sky is the limit. But I would prefer to put the extra money that I don't need to good uses. I would spread a little philanthropy around, give to others in need on this site and through other resources.
I'd also look to teach others how to fish. I think a great way for the economy to be fixed would be if philanthropists made some really good employee owned companies. Make the place pay for itself, skim a little off the top, and walk away knowing that you really were a job creator.
I think that everyone who is capable of work and who chooses to work deserves to have their own independent living situation. I know that we are a long way from that, but I tend to be an optimist. I would like to try and make the world a better place, if nothing else.

Aside form financial help, I'm interested in anything else that I could get that's useful. Advice, Neuroscience Career connections, work, hobby or volunteer work that can easily become lucrative, I'm really all ears. Thanks again for taking the time to read my request. I hope you find it in you to help me out, even get to know me if you'd like. Bet you $5000 I can make you laugh. Did I win? >;) it was worth a try anyway.

need an income, ill, but intelligent and want to work

Posted by needhelpsoon on 2012-01-13 18:58:09

I have worked my whole life, since 13 with the exception of when my children were young and home. Unfortunately I got very sick five years ago. Pain is the main thing stopping me from working, as no matter what position I get in, I only have a couple minutes before either pain or numbness starts. I worked thru the first two years then off and on since, cleaning, caring for elderly-no lifting etc, but elderly that need company, someone to be with them and be sure they don't walk away etc. Not to ne ignorant or egotistical, but I do have a good mind and an excellent work ethic. I can't stand not working but have no skills beyond physical work. If someone gave me a chance and taght me whatever they needed me to do I would be an asset to any company or family, I promise that. The only other thing stopping me is clothing, without working, I haven't shopped for clothes in five years, so if its office, I would need some direction into proper clothing.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and your consideration.

Money Help for Everything

Posted by ldeguzman2010 on 2012-01-02 21:58:29

I am writing this because I am needing money for the following: Lawyer fees, business and medical.

I am nearly in my 40's been working out of the country for 10 years but life isn't easy and no savings.

I left my country for a long time hoping something I can do to uplift my life but instead nothing. My son was given by my mother back to his father, which I am against because he has a mistress . He is kind of not a good man. He has mistresses . I am looking forward to fight him in court but what is stopping me is the money. I know lawyers can be expensive, I cant afford it. Another thing is to file a divorce with this crappy man. who has been deceiving me since time of marriage. I was just been patient. He wouldn't file divorce because he wanted to stay in my country. This process also needs money.
This year when I got job I need to undergo a medical and found out that my liver is fat, I am not a drinker but I dont know the reason why it is fat. I need a good medical check up.

The only feasible thing I can come up with is to ask people for help to help me come up with a capital. I know how to run a business. And from there I do the rests... Asking each time is not good. I am only asking for one time help. I need a capital for business, which can sustain me of everything I need to mend my life. I hope and pray that each kind individual will extend their help.

In the late 1990's, my wife and I came separately from Peru to the United States. We met here, fell in love and married. We now have four beautiful children ages 12 through 3.

We have never been able to adjust our immigration status here. It was never a problem to find a job and feed our family. But now, I have lost my job and cannot find a new one. My wife cleans houses and we live on the little money she brings in. We live in fear because the police in our town are stopping everyone. We do not want our children to see us deported and the family torn apart.

We have worked hard all these years. We never took help from the government even when we could - no food stamps, no medicare. We paid all our bills. We even paid social security taxes but will never be able to retire with that money.

We want to return to Peru. We ask your help for the airfares, shipping our few personal belongings and setting up a home there. Now, I speak English so I can get a job in tourism there. We will keep our children in bilingual school so they don't lose their English. They will have the chance after college to come back, they are US citizens, but my wife and I don't want to return.

This is for real. We only ask for a little help to go home. Please help us in any way you can.

Que Dios les bendiga! May God bless you! Thanks.

Well, Ill start off by saying any amount would be appreciated, I really thought I wouldn't do something like this but its about time I do. See the thing is I live in a small town in Oregon called Brookings and It is really hard to get a job in such a small town, believe me I know ive been trying for two years.... ive had small things such as like fixing someone computer or help fix up houses or pull weeds, but not enough to get me to see my Faience, my Faience has some money saved for housing and food and such for me to stay with her, but I still need to get to her, and you may be thinking woah shes saved and you haven't, well im barely getting by to live hah Im actually living with my parents, but anyways once I can get to my faience we will start a life together and I really cant wait, we had planned it to be in 3 months so im trying really hard to get money to pay for the ticket. The tickets around a thousand $ Might seem like not much to some people but to me yeah its alot. Anyways I will tell you a little about my situation and how me and my Faience met. Well actually it was on a dating website I had just sighed up for randomly because I hadn't found anyone I liked in my town, and well we met on there and started talking on there and got to know each other and we would cam and such, and we thought we would give it a shot online dating so we did, now 2 and half years have past and we still haven't met in real life ofc we have seen each other on cam and such and talk all the time but ofc we all know.... that isn't anything compared to the real thing... About at the year and half Mark I asked her to be my Faience though cam I didn't want to do that though cam but had no choice I didn't want to let her go nor did she want to let me go and this new found love was so amazing..
The point is I want to live with and be with my angel my true love of this whole world, and the only thing stopping me is money...by now you are wondering why I don't just like walk there or drive or something or anything of the sort, well fine ill tell you why! She lives in China! Believe me if I could walk on water I would go right now... Well anyways all in all I would love help from anyone.

My Wife and I are both disabled Americans. She has had a major back fusion and two knee replacements as well as some heart woes. I myself have just had my second major back surgery, I have an implantable Cardiac Defibrilator and one total knee replacement.
We are both on a very low income, myself on Social Security Disabilaty, she on School Employees Retirement Disabilaty benefits. We have a vehicle that is almost twenty years old and on its last legs.. I am certain you get many letters like this everyday but we really would like some kind of assistance. We would love to be able to move to Vermont where we can be near our children and Grandchildren as they grow and flourish into strong Americans ans be near our Parents as they live out thier golden years. I know we are asking a lot but if there is anything you can do to truly show your compassion , we will speak on every t.v. station, every radio station, make posters, whatever it takes. To show our thanks and support. We're begging you.
The state of Ohio in its infinite wisdom is considering stopping paying my Medicare part b and take away my medicaid because we, "make too much gross income" by the time we pay all our bills we have maybe 50.00 left to last an entire month.
My Wifes Information::::
I was Married to a very wonderful man for 31 years. He developed heart disease and diabetes. He fought valiently but finaly succomed to the medical problems. I became very sad and was almost at the brink of a mental breakdown. I did become involved with the local Greif Counseling service as this helped me to ease my burden a small amount. I began talking to this nice fellow on Pogo.com which is an online gaming site where one may play all sorts of games such as Solitare etc. We hit it off and began internet dating in August of 2008. We arranged to meet in November and upon viewing each other we knew the bond we had felt over the air was a real bond and Leo dropped to his knees and askeed me to Marry him. We married a week later in November of 2008 and have been together ever since. Since than we have both become quite medically burdened ourselves, Leo has a thing called Sudden Cardiac death Syndrome and has had to have had an Automatic Implantable Cardiac Defibrilator instaled recently. We both suffer from back woes and must seek care frequently. Now we do have a 1996 Chevy Blazer that runs when it feels like it, the airconditioner is broken and what with being in the Midwest is very hot to have to drive around with the windows down. A computer part that costs 1500.00 for the A.B.S. system is out and we just can not afford to fix it. We love the vehicle as it was my first ever fully owned vehicle from a bank loan in my life. If We appreciate everything we have and are greatful for both this site and for all the kindness of others. Please vote for us and we shall make certain to pay it forward with our own kindness and see to it that others are blessed as we are. Thank you for reading and for helping out anyway you can.
My Information::::
My Wife and I will be Married for three years on November 28th.We met in late July or early August of 2008. She had just lost her husband of 31 years. I was myself looking for a somewhat different lifestyle than I was in currently. I was living at home at over 40, disabled with a moderate spinal disease and more or less going nowhere. Debbie and I hit it off right away and we were engaged in October and Married in November. We each have been each others rock and best friend and companion. I have since went into the Ministry and have undertaken many courses towards helping others to live as good a life as possible. Debbie is a great personal loss counselor in her own right. I recently became a heart patient and have had to have an Automatic Implantable cardiac defibrilator installed in my upper chest which has a built in pace maker. All this at only the age of 49.Debbie has had to have undergone major back surgery herself and have screws and cages ut into her lower back. This makes us totaly disabled yet we both have a teriffic outlook on life and are always willing to help others. Life is what you make it, not a series of bad events that bring you down. We both appreciate each day given unto us and are so greatful for all our friends, family, and fellow searchers of lifes Grace. If we were chosen to receive a New SUV as we live in snowy Ohio and may move to new England to be closer to some family we would make certain that it was put to good use and everyone would know the generosity of others. I can only hope as this as well as the other stories here on this site may touch you a small amount and you shall favor us with kindness. God Bless Everyone. Thank You All. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful friends and supporters here. We appreciate everything people are doing and sending all the wonderful messages. God Bless You all.

Help put a roof over my head.

Posted by Didistrides on 2011-10-04 02:58:43

Hello,
I would want to thank you for stopping by to read this.All I need is an ear that listens and a heart that understands.I know that any of these could easily be dismissed as a scam,but even if you think it is a scam the truth is that I need your help.

I am a very shy person,like many I hate to beg.This is why I choose this means to ask for your help.As I am writing this it is not yet settled where to put down my head this night.I know you would want to ask why I allowed it to get so bad.But you need to know that I have been out of job for a while.

Well good news I just got another job to be paid 15,000 Naira a month that is 93.82 dollars a month.Before YOU figure out how I SURVIVE with that,Just know we are use to such in Africa,especially when there are few jobs available.

But the problem is that I stand the chance of even loosing the job because I have no place to lay my head and my employer is not obliged to provide any accommodation for me.
I am prayerfully doing this hoping that God would touch your heart.I want to believe that there is still one good hearted fellow out there who will come to my rescue.It will take me at least seven months to save the kind of money I need to rent an apartment.It is quite a very long time for me,this is assuming I SAVE ALL MY SALARY which is not practically workable.
So I pray for your help I need at least 1000 dollars to rent a house close to my place of work,this will help me cut out transportation cost.You are probably not the only person going to read this so I don't expect you to pay all.But whatever you can afford to help put a roof over my head is welcome.

I am 30 yrs old young man from Nigeria.Real names withheld for confidentiality.But if you want to know more you can contact me on my yahoo account.tempozone@yahoo.com.I have a little challenge in here Paypal don't work in Nigeria.But there other means to get your donation.Western union is very helpful.Thanks for your understanding.

Need Help Please - Lost Home and Husband To Suicide

Posted by YoungWidow on 2011-08-06 16:58:53

There is no easy way to tell this story. I know that this letter is long and I wish it were a simple matter, but it is not. 3 days after my husband and I lost our home to foreclosure, I lost my husband of almost 16 years to suicide.

Joe and I bought our home in 1999. We had rented it for 3 years since we had gotten married on June 1, 1996. We were a happy couple and in love and we created many memories there, happy Christmases, a lot of laughter and a growing togetherness that at the end, rendered Joe and I not just husband and wife, but best of friends. Joe was my best friend.

We both worked, but the layoffs began in 2007. For years, we struggled and worked hard to make ends meet. In 2009, we were working with our mortgage company on a loan modification program. Still, bankruptcy had to be filed in late 2009. But, in October, 2010, Joe was laid off again. For the next six months following the last lay off, we worked with the mortgage company in trying to find a buyer for our home to possibly rent it back to us. Ultimately, the mortgage company auctioned our home for $98,000. All of our equity was gone and we had no home. Both of us were out of work and Joe was receiving unemployment benefits.

During that time, I watched Joe change. He had always been an optimistic person. One of his favorite things to say was, 'it doesn't have to be this way'. He was the life of the party, he made everyone laugh, and he was a good person. Joe was a genuinely sincere, loving, sweet, hardworking man who cared about others.

Even strangers. Once, driving home from work, he heard a girl screaming from a deserted parking lot behind Safeway. He pulled over and got out of the car, as two men ran by him. He said he wanted to chase them, but did not because he felt he needed to check on the girl. She had been beaten. He stayed with her and comforted her until the police arrived. They thanked him for stopping. He said he told them, 'Of course. Anyone would'. They assured him that was not true. But, that was the way that Joe thought.

I watched Joe struggle more than I had ever seen someone do to take care of our home and of me. Sometimes he would still laugh, but those times began coming fewer and farther between. Sometimes, he would cry. He would sob in my arms. It tears my heart out now to think of it. I will never in this lifetime get over this or recover completely. Joe had been in my life for a total of 18 years, 16 married, almost (this last June 1, 2011 would have been our 16th wedding anniversary), he was a good man, and he was my friend. He was my life.

Joe and I lost our home. We packed our home of nearly 16 years into a storage building. (I have since lost that building and all of our belongings).

3 days after losing our home, Joe committed suicide. He jumped off of a bridge. Despite a hospital stay and efforts to save him, he ultimately died.

The buyers of our home have turned it over or flipped it already in this short time. I sometimes go by it and look at it. I see Joe tinkering in the garage or I look through the front window and picture us having dinner together. I see where our Christmas tree stood. I look at the front door and remember when we first walked through it, when we were engaged and looking for our first (and only) home. The very first thing that went into our home, before furniture or belongings, was a small statue with Jesus and a little plaque that read 'Bless Our Home'. Joe hung that in the hallway. I still cannot comprehend that this happened. Joe was always a positive, happy person. Our wedding song was 'You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me.' by Gladys Knight. I can't listen to it now. I know you don't know Joe and he's a stranger to you, but he was my life.

I lost my husband and my home in a period of 3 days. Joe's unemployment checks have ceased and there is no income. I have applied for dozens upon dozens of jobs, everything from picking up trash at a park to a waitress to an errand runner. I have not been hired. I have few skills and he was always the major earner. He had years of experience in various outside sales. I am not a college graduate with few skills and what I have to offer is very limited. I cannot afford to go back to school. Social Security will not help because I am not old enough. Joe and I couldn't have children so often, public assistance cannot help. New creditors are coming after me, such as the homeowners association for the house we lost, his time in the hospital in their efforts to save him (due to circumstances, there was no medical insurance, however by law they were required to treat him), the ambulance and rescue team that pulled him from the water and the list and cost is too measurable to detail here. I do not know where else to turn. I am alone. So, I am turning to you.

Joe used to say, 'sometimes bad things happen to good people.' When he said that, I never imagined this. Can you please help? I am lost.

Thank you.

All My Best,

Christina

I am very sad!!! Please help me.

I have been struggling financially because my family does not support me at all. Although my mother is the only one who emotionally supports me, she is unable to pay for my education at all because she is struggling as well. When she lived with me, she lost her job which forced her to move to another state, leaving me here to be on my own which has been difficult. I have recently been accepted in a wonderful psychology program in the State of Oregon, but I have been unable to save the money for my airline ticket which is like 200 some dollars. Being the only person in my family to go to college has been very difficult because I feel like I should go and finish college. I love school, but I am also scared of not being able to help myself because of my financial trouble. I hope to make it to Oregon because if I don't I will have no place to stay, so I would probably have to think about either staying with a friend or a shelter near by. I know if I was financially stable I would finish school because I get good grades, but I feel like the only thing that is stopping me is money. I really really hope to be able to accomplish my dreams in order to help people like me and even more. I have always feared of failing in my future because of financial needs and because of being a minority in the United States. My goal in life is to provide to individuals who truly need help. As of now, I really need to escape this state because of my past abusive relationship. I fear that the person that once hurt me will come and do something horrible to me, and refuge is also a reason I want to leave to Oregon and pursue a wonderful career in psychology.
Please help me. I am asking all of you with all my heart to be able to just donate a penny. Every cent would mean the world to me, and I will keep all of you in my thoughts and heart. Just one cent will give me the motive and show me that someone really does care in this world. Thank you please for helping me.

To continue with my life
