Hi,
We are a family of six that could use some finanical help.
We have 2 teenage sons and 2 yonger daughters.Last year I ended up
in the hospital ICU to find out I have type1 diabetes.My hospital bills
have reached over one hundred thousand dollars so far.Problem is I do not have
health insurance and now i have to buy insulin and blood testing supply's
every month that cost me hundreds of dollars. With all the new monthly bills
our household bills are just getting farther and farther behind. I feel like
I am a burden to my family. Its getting hard just to put food on the table.
If anyone out there could send a little help our way I would be so grateful.
God bless

I´ve just sat down and started searching the internet for any help.I wasn't able to eat anything at lunch.I really feel like crying.I never,ever,thought this possible!

I'm a 43 year old optician in Portugal and have a small business.Besides myself,I employ to other people.This store was my dream and 11 years ago,I ventured out on my own.To do this,I took out loans and placed all my earnings here.
Things went acordingly until 2009.Since then,day by day,the worst imaginable nightmare unfolds.
As you probably know,the european economic crises is taking it's toll on countries like Portugal.

To cut a long story short - I'm in heavy debt and can't find a way round anymore.
Selling the business isn't even an option nowadays! Everybody is waiting to see what's going to happen.In the mean time,all colapses.

So,if there is anyone out there that knows what I'm going on about and understands what a shop owner,husband and father of two teenage girls feels like when all falls apart - PLEASE, if you can spare even just some small amount - PLEASE won't you help me save my life's dream and keep my family from suffering the most terrible crises that seems to be awaiting...

(if you can help me, please send me a mail and I will provide the acount number - tuafox@gmail.com)

My name is Nora and I am a student at a government university. I lived a happy life with my family until I turned 18 and my father and my little sister died in a car accident from drunk driver. Not only we lost my father and my sister but my my mother almost lost her leg and she is the only one who is still struggling with five kids and trying to help us. We lost our house because we couldn't make the rent payment and we moved to one bed room apartment. We all sleep on the floor in the living room and one night everybody start crying because we couldn't get electricity to our house.
Every day I always dream that my father is still alive and my family is still a happy family but when I wake up I realized this not gonna happened.

I really miss my sister's room. She wrote her name on her door and she loved music so show had all those nice cd of silly teenage kids music.
Even that house that carry all the nice and sad memory we lost it.

The worst thing when my little brother and he is 5 years old got sick with Asthma and we can't help him. I really wish that somebody there will read my story and help my family. Thank you for reading my story

Hello, my name is kimberly and i dont know where else to turn so i am posting on this website. I am a survivor of the joplin may 22nd tornado. I was working at walmart when we got a code black and we all went to the back of the store. We were all joking around not really thinking much about it. We never thought walmart would get hit. My brother called me and told me that there was a tornado in joplin and that it was big and not to panic. I still didnt think walmart could get taken down, we were in a busy populated area in the middle of the city. The power went off and i told my brother i had to get off the phone. It got pretty loud and sumone yelled that it was here. I looked up and seen the roof getting ripped off. Everyone then screamed and we got down on our knees and prayed. All i could do is pray to see my little boys again and my husband and the rest of my family. The winds were so fast and i was getting hit with all sorts of things and something was on my back and was very heavy and something hit me in the head. It got quiet and people thought it was over and i was yelling at everyone to stay down for a little while to ensure it was over. After about 5 minutes we got hit with the end of the tornado and was just holding on to whatever i could and telling everyone that i loved them, even if i didnt know them. We were very crammed together as some people were on top of each and there was zero moving room and we were getting heavily rained on and hailed on. I found a small hole to put my hand through so that hopefully someone would see it and help us out. After about 30 min sumone was able to help get me out and i started helping others get out as there were many injured and many children. I started ripping open blankets to give to people because we were all soaked, filthy and freezing. Once i finally got out of the store and to the parking lot, i was in shock. Everyones cars were on top of each other and crushed. And i looked around and everything was flattened for miles. I dont know how any of us survived because walmart was totaled where we were. I have dealt with alot of anxiety since then and am dreading spring this year. I would really like to raise money for a shelter to have peace of mind and to ensure my kids safety. I never want my familys safety. Going through this tornado has made me realize how important things are in life and to have fun with my family and to appreciate life. I am going back to school andd my car just broke down and we think its the cadillac converter which i cant afford. I also want to help my dad out. He is disabled and raising my 3 teenage brothers. He is hurting financially as well and i love to help him when i can. I have a new found look on life now and love my kids so much and im so happy i was able to go home to them. There were many people that didnt make it that day and that easily could have been me. There are many heros from that frightful day. I dont like asking for help but i didnt know where else to go. I appreciate the people that help out people like me. You are wonderful people and god bless. Anything at all would help me out at this time. Thank you for taking time to listen to my story and thank you for donating. You are amazing and cherish those you love because you never know what could happen. Thank you!

I am 51 years old now with 2 young teenage boys.Ive been out of work for 2 years now.My boys god bless them are doing well at school, and seem to be coping well now as there mother left us over 12 months ago.But I feel im losing the battle.Had to sell the car to make ends meet (well kids need a christmas)but how do i find work further afield if i cant travel.I just did'nt realise the cost of train and bus fares. As the factories have closed and the work has all dried up in this small town,it seem the cities are the places to be,but so expensive to get to there.It saddens me that if a skilled person cant find work today how are the kids of the future going to cope.If you could spare some small changer to help out it would be most appreciated many thanks

Salam, I wish to seek some monetary assistance to pay for my children schooling. Its new year and school opening ere and im really in debt with the school for my children schooling fee. Im divorcee with 3 teenage kids. I work in a Security Company with very minimal pay and m struggling to meet ends. Thank you for your good deed . I wish only for sincere and genuine help . Dont know where else to turn.

I am a single mother of two teenage kids I currently attend college and recently lost my job my rent is do if there is anyone out there that know what I am going through and can offer some help please do thank you.

I am a solo mum with my invalid 81 year old father and 2 teenage boys at home. I work 2 jobs to keep us. My son will be 17years old in 3 weeks and he wants to work. He is in his final year at school, year 12. When finished year 12 in 2012 he wants to be our family's third generation farmer.Our family for 2 generations have worked and lived on the land for farm owners. Helping out on other peoples farms for all of his 17 years he has a wealth of knowledge and experience far beyond his years. I am not financial enough to feed us every night let alone give him any assistance for a bright albeit a hard working future. We live in Queensland in an area where most of the casual farm work is already taken.Please, we do not have any family who can help us out with a job let alone a dream. A little help from a lot of people can help get my sons future off the ground to run and own his own farm.Having his own farm has been the only job he has ever wanted.He has 2 willing workers in myself and his brother to get things started. There is also a lot of his peers who also have grown up in this farming district, youth who are willing and able to work along side of him. The alternative is they too will be out of work by the end of this year. We need what to us is an enormous amount of money,around $750,000.00 to purchase an existing Lucerne farm.He wants to be innovative and extend the Lucerne producing farm into a mixed business, Lucerne and old fashion calf rearing.There are no existing farms of this type in the area.There are many Lucerne farms locally but no calf rearing farms. We have done our homework, calf rearing is very viable. The Northern Territory runs successful calf rearing farms.This is also an area we are comfortable in. For extra pocket money it is what we have done in the past when we have been allowed to use the owners property.Please help me buy my boys a job and more importantly a very Australian future on the land.

I am a single mother of three children. A son 10 years old and two teenage girls. I lost my job about 6 months ago and have been living on the little bit of money I had in savings, our home is now in foreclosure and I have no ways to keep it. We need to moveout in the next month but I have no money to relocate my family. Everywhere I have looked they are requesting 2 to 3 months rent so I'm looking at a minimum of $3,000. to get a new place. Since i dont have a job I cant get a loan because right now I have no ways to pay it back. I really don't have any family members except for my mom who it older and barely gets by on her social security. I cant move in with her because she lives in a senior community and is not allowed. My daughter has been desperately looking for a job as well as myself but no one will hire us, I so desperately dont want to end up in a shelter or have my kids living out of our car. This has been a very sad experience for not only myself but for my children. This was the first Xmas I was not able to give my children any gifts but thankfully they understand. I pray that I will get through these bad times soon. I never expected that I would have to ask for money this way but I have no other choice right now. Thanks for considering my story and any help is greatly appreciated.

I can't believe I am doing this, but I don't have anywhere else to turn. This has been one of the hardest years of my life. My husband and I lost our business at the beginning of the year, then on Easter our teenage son was hospitalized for a month in which he endured 5 operations and the amputation of part of his left foot after a motorcycle crash. Our daughter and her 3 children have had to move in with us, my husband has been in and out of the hospital this year with stomach problems and he can hardly work, he has been too ill.We have fallen behind on our mortgage payments and Green tree Servicing will not work with us anymore.We have been given a letter of default and have only a few days left to come up with the past due amount of 1435.00 I have sold anything of value that we have, there is nothing left. Dear God we have been unable to give our son and grandchildren any presents for Christmas this year, and my son is only worried that we will be homeless soon, if there is anyone out there that can help me help my family, I will be forever in your debt and one day I would love to do the same for someone else in need. Please, please help us, we have until Dec. 28th 2011 before we have our home taken from us.

Three months ago my husband beat me and left me to be with his stripper girlfriend, leaving me with a teenage daughter, unemployed, and no way to pay the bills. I am now about to have my car reposessed and possibly lose my home due to being behind on my mortgage payments. My daughter just got a part-time job but it's only seasonal, she'll have no way to get there without a car. There is no work in the town where I live, if I can get a bicycle I may be able to get a job in another town, but in the meantime I need help to get caught up on the car payment and mortgage so we don't lose everything and end up in a homeless shelter. $1,000.00 would be enough to get the car payment caught up, or $500.00 for the mortgage. Once we are both employed and have transportation we will be OK, but right now are in danger of losing everything. My daughter cries every night because of what her Dad has done to us.Please, Please help. We have no family to support us through this crisis.Thank you for anything you can do for us.

We desperately need your help!

I feel so bad for having to ask for the help from the kindness of strangers, yet I am at a point where I don’t know what else we can do.

Our lives have been so challenged with enduring so many things, and we always have struggled but survived, yet it gets harder every day...

I’m hoping to find some compassionate people who can help us, with our financial troubles.
It seems that we have been challenged with so many unfortunate/unforeseeable life changing experiences in the past 6 yrs., ...

Which our family has endured, through all of it by working hard, and with our caring, we always help everyone we can, (being care givers in our home for terminally ill family, taking care of a homeless family with small children, surviving the struggles of major health issues, unemployment, losing close family & friends that are now RIP, we have always helped everyone we can, with whatever we have)....... yet now financially, we have put ourselves in a place where we are now desperately needing someone else to help us, who really understands and cares.

As well, with 2 young teenage daughters who are trying to start their own lives; it is so heart breaking when you want to help them, and just don’t have the financial means to help them with what they need so they have a chance for a successful future.

My husband has now recently secured a full time job, and is working as hard as he can, yet it seems like we have just gotten to far behind to catch up; we at risk of losing our own home, my car was repossessed 2 years ago after losing my job, then the motor went in my husbands truck, so we have been left without a vehicle for a year now, our home is in need of repairs, we ran out of money for me to pay tuition for a college course that would get me back to work, as well there are other unpaid bills that have stacked up over the past few years too,........
...... it just seems that we are now going to loose everything that we have worked so hard for all these years.

We just need to find away to get back on our feet, and unfortunately we have no one else to turn to for help,

If any one can offer their help, it would be greatly appreciated.... no gift will be to small..

+ now if we don't come up with $1300.00 within the next 2 weeks, our home is going to be lost to back taxes.

Can someone please help us.....

Haliburton, Ontario, Canada

My name is Gigi and I need your help.

Imagine you have several chronic illnesses they prevent you from working and you don't have disability. Imagine every week you run out of diapers and every month your teenage daughter ends up in a psychiatric hospital. Imagine the landlord tries to evict you monthly.

This is my life. I rely on donations from friends and family but they don't pay the bills lately and they have given all they can. I need your help. Please see my web page my sister set up for me at http://www.kitkaplan.com/fredyfund

I'm an unemployed Army veteran and I'm living from hand to mouth. It would be lovely if I had people visit my business to generate Christmas money for me. I don't want to have a poor Christmas for my son and grandson. I would like to give a good Christmas this year. Please visit http://www.officialnorthpolemail.com/share.php?xyz=120 and purchase personalized and customized official mail from the North Pole. I think any child would love to receive a letter from Santa. Please purchase a personal letter for your kids or grandkids or donate money if you can. Several years ago, I went to the Salvation Army for Christmas and they ran out of stuff for my teenage son. We had a bad Christmas that year and hardly any food. It was rough. I would appreciate the gesture. God bless you.

I am a single mother with sole custody of two fabulous teenage boys. I lost my job in April of 2011, since then we have been living on welfare. I have been unable to find a job, have had major surgery and can no longer pay bills. I have downsized my life to the extreme including selling of personal items just to make ends meet. I have cashed in all my 401K's and IRA's and have no other assets left to assist me to keep my kids fed and living in a house. Please help.

Im a single mother of a teenage daughter i have always managed to keep us afloat.I do have a job and i barley can pay my bills things are getting really hard for us. My hours were cut and paying rent and keeping up with my bills are getting scary I get 0 help from ANY goverment at all i do it all alone no family and no food in the house . im not gonna give a sad sob story plain and simple if you have the means to help me and my daughter with money for rent i will be ever so gratefull any amount helps i do need $1,800- to pay my rent and back rent i owe my landlord or we will be evicted .....please someone HELP me im so scared ......

I am a single mom of two teenage children, I was unemployed for over a year and finally found a part time job at a local store. I applied and was accepted at a local college to try to get enough education to find a better job to support my children and to get us back on track. Unfortunately, the grant was not enough to pay for my books. Need help getting the rest of my books and my children are in need of clothing. They are very humble and never complain about anything, which is really something for teenagers, I am very proud of them. They are working really hard in school to try to get scholarships so they won't be in the same boat that their mom is in. Anything will help. Thanks for reading my story and for any help you can give.

My daughter was diagnosed with a form of cancer called Squamous cell Carcinoma in September of 2007. She was 17 years old at the time and has been undergoing treatments for that cancer and many related illness since then. There have been many up and downs in that time, but utlimatley the depression and anger of never being able to live a "normal" teenage or young adult life has started to defeat her. The cancer has done serious damage to her body, destroying 3 ribs and damaging vertebrae. Despite that, shs has fought very hard but that is starting to come to an end.

Part of the reason, and one of the reasons I am posting this, is that the bills and lay off's have put us in such a bad position finincially that unless she is in the hospital she is cooped up at home. She herself can not work, and the small SSI check ehs gets each month does little to help. We are on the verge of getting our utilities shut off, which will happen Friday unless a miracle happens. We also have no way of paying rent, and whike our landlord is working with us we simply have near zero funds for August.

We have been in this position numerous times over the last few years, but we always had family step in to help. They can not this time, so I am begging. I know this kind of thing seldom works, and usually results in scammers contacting you to feed off of your misery. But I am hoping that a fortunate angel see's this post and decides that my daughter and my family are worthy of a small break. Thus, I am begging for money online. Any amount helps, but the total we need to get through one more month is $1200.

Another reason I am doing this is I wish to take her on a short trip to bolster her spirits. It's in state and a place she loves, but as shown above, even that is out of reach.

More information and links to news articles done about my daughters illness are available upon request. I am more than willing to discuss the issue with anyone who contacts me. For those who wish to donate I have a paypal account in my name and a fundrazr account set up for Jenny's trip. I will provide either upon request.

And finally, the other reason I am here. I would like to request that anyone reading this, whether you are a blood sucking scammer, someone else looking for aid or an angel looking to donate, please pray for my little girl and my family. We long ago accepted that we would likely lose her to this damned desease, but it is very difficult to watch her wilt away as she is doing now. The finincial and emotional distress is killing us, and while I have never been a good Christian, I believe the energey generated by the power of good thought and goodwill can work miracles.

I would like to tell you a story that relates to why I am asking for help.
My father was a Vietnam vet who proudly enlisted into the army to serve his country. After willingly serving two tours of duty, he came home and married my mother (his high school sweetheart) and started a family consisting of me and my two older sisters.
When I was four, my father began experiencing difficulties with his legs and feet. After many unsuccessful operations, it was determined that he was losing the bone density in his legs and he was put in a wheelchair.
My father was an amazing man; he never let his being in a wheelchair keep him down. He climbed Pike's Peak twice and Mount Evans once in his wheelchair, one of his climbs was filmed by a local TV show in Colorado called P.M. Magazine. We have the video footage on beta and are trying to find a way to convert it to DVD. I would love to share his story with anyone wanting to watch it. It shows what a courageous man he was. It was a heartbreaking climb over rough terrain and sometimes he had to strap his wheelchair to his ankles and drag it while he scooted up steep inclines on his backside. It never deterred him. He had more strength and determination than any man I have ever met in my life. He also ran marathons in his wheelchair and spoke to other handicapped and disabled individuals to help them realize that although someone may be hindered, it just means that they learn to function differently. "I may be in a wheelchair, but the wheelchair isn't in me," he used to say.
In 1987, when I was 12, the harsh weather conditions of Colorado became unbearable for my father and we moved to Las Cruces, New Mexico.
My father was never granted disability in Colorado or New Mexico and while he fought for 30 years for his pension from the Army, he never received that either (the common story of we can't seem to find your files even though my father repeatedly submitted his paperwork to show his contribution to our country). As a result, my mother found herself working 2 full time jobs just to support us and we still barely made ends meet.
We grew up poor our entire lives, but we understood what it was like to be rich in other ways. Our family was close and we knew that, no matter how rough things could be at times, that we really did have each other. My sisters and I grew very close over the time when we had no electricity and only had each other to listen to because we didn't have the power for television and radio. We are still very close to this day. I will never regret how we grew up, even with the struggles, because it was the foundation of who we are today. We all learned how to be kind and unselfish and value each other. Both my sisters and I all have our own children and work hard to instill the same values in them.
In 2000, my father was diagnosed with lung cancer as a result of being subjected to Agent Orange while in Vietnam. The tumors were visible in both lungs and nothing could be done. He passed away one week after the diagnosis. We had no time to prepare and certainly no time to say goodbye.

My mother now lives in PA in a cute little Amish town. She has since remarried a wonderful man named Jack. He is also a Vietnam veteran.

My sisters and I still live in New Mexico with our families, although my heart is definitely on the east coast with my mother.
A short time after my mother moved to PA, she got a
job as a nurse. She loved helping other people as she had done all her life. Unfortunately, she suffered a fall that left her with permanent neck and spinal injuries. After going through her own numerous surgeries, she was unable to continue the work that she loved so much. The tables have turned from when we were growing up where she was the only source of income and Jack has been the sole provider for the last several years.
Recently, Jack began to feel very ill and it looks like the effects of Agent Orange have done their damage once again. He is suffering from skin cancer and stage 4 prostate cancer and after going through a series of tests, the probability of also having lymphoma is very high. My mother is going through the same horror once again and while my sisters and I are grown, losing a father to Agent Orange for the second time isn't easy on the heart.
A few years ago, my mother lost both parents and her only sibling, a brother, in the span of four months. She has nobody and I can't bear to leave her alone while she suffers physically and emotionally.
Unfortunately, I lost my job a couple months ago due to layoffs and have had extreme difficulty finding another source of income. Las Cruces is a small city with very limited opportunity. While I worked in the same profession for the past 11 years, I have applied for any and every type of job I could find.
We are struggling to find a way to move close to my mother so that I can take care of her and so she won't be alone if she loses Jack. My sisters and I are the only family she has left and I want nothing more than to be there for her.

I am hoping to find a job there very quickly and I would also love to attend schooling and get my degree in forensics. It has been a dream of mine to be able to assist in solving crime related cases. I firmly believe that I can accomplish my career goals and help my mother if I were in a state with far more job opportunities.
We have never been comfortable financially and my 2 teenage boys understand what it is like to do without the things they want in exchange for just the things they need, much like my sisters and I when we were growing up. I have always wanted more for my kids than to see them grow up here in a high poverty state. I believe the job opportunities and schooling for them will be equally beneficial. They both already have career minded goals that will take them farther in a bigger state.

It has been 4 years since I've seen my mother as neither of us can afford the expense of a trip.

All I am requesting is enough assistance to be able to move my family closer to my mother and locate a house to rent while I search for a job. I am only asking for short term support as I know that I am capable of supporting my own family and I am certain that I will be able to find gainful employment in a short time.

I would like to tell you a story that relates to why I am asking for help.

I am hoping to find a job there very quickly and I would also love to attend schooling and get my degree in forensics. It has been a dream of mine to be able to assist in solving crime related cases. I firmly believe that I can accomplish my career goals and help my mother if I were in a state with far more job opportunities.
We have never been comfortable financially and my 2 teenage boys understand what it is like to do without the things they want in exchange for just the things they need, much like my sisters and I when we were growing up. I have always wanted more for my kids than to see them grow up here in a high poverty state. I believe the job opportunities and schooling for them will be equally beneficial. They both already have career minded goals that will take them farther in a bigger state.

It has been 4 years since I've seen my mother as neither of us can afford the expense of a trip.

All I am requesting is enough assistance to be able to move my family closer to my mother and locate a house to rent while I search for a job. I am only asking for short term support as I know that I am capable of supporting my own family and I am certain that I will be able to find gainful employment in a short time.

I have never asked for anything in my life. I know I need to humble myself and ask for help. That is what we are all here for... to help each other.

I ran from my abusive husband with nothing.

I have taken my sister and her two teenage children in with the greatest of pleasure.

My car has gone down and needs "open heart surgery" which means I have been unable to continue with my business without a car, which is supporting us all and putting a roof over our heads.

I have no one to ask for help - except you. A complete stranger who is taking the time to read my story.

Currently: Our rent is in arrears...
I need to pay for my car repairs...
Accounts are in arrears due to no income without a car...
Business capital to get our ventures up and running again...

I am currently in arrears by $8000.00

I am desperate and don't know what to do. All I do know is with out your help - no matter how big or small ($1 donations welcome) - we will more than likely be out on the streets by the end of this month.

Your generosity and kindness will be forever appreciated and if afforded the opportunity - I WILL repay you.
