In the past several months a lot of unexpected events have taken place in my life. I started a new business, my mom passed away, my car engine blew up, my grown son became ill and one of my small grandchildren came to live with me for needed reasons. I am a 55+ year old female that has worked very hard my whole life but I have exhausted all my means of getting things to work out. If I could just get past this hump someway, I feel I could get back on track. If someone could please help me out temporarily so I don't loose everything I will find away to give back to others again. Thank you

Lets see. I am 20 years old and living in Austin TX-for 2 years now. I am a ballet dancer training with the Austin Ballet. I have been dancing for 14 years. I was adopted along with 7 other siblings in my family, due to abusive and addictive birth parents. My dance teachers are the reason why i am still dancing, paying for tuition, shoes, ect, because my family of 10 already struggle enough finiacially. I graduated early from high school and moved away and now I was acccepted into a school in New York! Alvin Ailey School for modern and ballet, it is unbelieveable how big a chance this is. And now I'm looking around, seeing as I can't even buy a plane ticket let alone be able to support myself all summer into the fall. Things in Life happen for a reason in the most unexpected ways. I am asking to help get me to New York. I havn't been home to see my family in 2 years because I have not been able to afford to fly home to see them, but its the sacrifice we must make to do what we love. Thank you for listening, and I can't wait to give to others the way so many have helped me in this journey we call life. I have less than a month to be in NY, along with paying for rent and bills.....

I am a father and a husband to a family I love dearly. I lost my job due to an unexpected layoff and I'm going to school to educate myself for my family. My wife is trying to hold down 2 part-time jobs while raising our children and managing the home.
It hurts me to see her go through this and all I've evr wanted was to give her a good life. The bills are piling up and the stress is getting to our marriage. If anyone can help us, please, we would be forever greatful, and God Bless.

Hello, my name is James, im 26 have 3 children, and working hard to get no where in this economy, Paying the bills and everything else leaves my family with a little money to spend at the end of the week, unfortunatly not enough to take us away on a holiday.
My children have not left the state and i myself have not been on a holiday for a decent 8 years, my 8 year old son would like to go to the gold coast so that is our ambition, but just finding it hard to keep the funds there, as it is we save up and than an unexpected bill comes in and half of it is gone, I guess im asking if anyone out there could please make a donation to help me take my kids and myself on a holiday.
many thanks in advance if you can, our family would be greatly appreciative, even if it were a dollar...

Thanks again

My best friend was recently diagnosed with cancer. She's too proud to ask for help herself, and I'm one of the few people in her life that even knows she's sick. Her own family (who recently disowned her after she broke up with a fiance they liked) doesn't even know what's going on.

My friend started having a panic attack after doing some calculations and realizing that she can't afford her final semester of college this August after paying for Chemotherapy and some unexpected car repairs. Her family refuses to give her the information she needs to fill out her FAFSA, so she can't even get student loans.

I couldn't stand seeing her like that -- She's been struggling with issues for years due to a traumatic childhood, and to see her dreams of graduating fall apart due to money issues was too much to bear.

So I told her I'd pay for her last semester, in full. And looking at my finances, I will be able to pay for most of it if I penny-pinch, don't eat out, avoid driving anywhere I don't need to, and donate some blood to the local blood bank. But it looks like even with doing that, I'll come up about $500 or $600 short.

If you can donate and help out, I'd be forever grateful for you helping her dreams come true. If you can't donate, have any ideas on how someone living in the Clark County, Nevada area could make some money over the weekends, let me know in the comments.

First of all I am not asking help for myself but for a friend whom Ive never seen but know her through the Internet. She lives in an eastern European country and she is gay. By the time she came out she already was married and had two georgeous and smart kids. I can imagine how confused she must have been and how hard must have been the decision for her to pick up the courage and come out. Of course this meant a divorce and her ex- husband ( pride and ego bruised because wife left him not for another man but a woman ) is fighting custody for the kids - and not always fair. Also to put it bluntly - he has money and she doesent. She and her partner going through a rough patch - age even posted on her blog that they had to make a decision between to eat or pay the solicitor. Of course they choose the solicitor. Her heart is thorn between her love and her children - she is a mother and has to watch how her ex and his new partner poison her children's mind calling her a faggot/ queer infront of them, telling them she is an abomination and that she is not worth to be loved but she needs to be locked up. She would be able to fight for her children despite this but where she lives it is not accepted to be gay ( ohh not openly no ) and the last time the judge actually voiced her opinion that the children have the right to live in a family which consist of a man and a woman.
I would love to help her to get the funds needed but I'm off on sick leave and have problems on my own ( rent arreas, bad debts as sickness came unexpected and don't have any savings ) that's why I'm asking here whoever can help her please do ( through me or straight to her )
She could be contacted through this blog ( it is in her own language but I guess even through google translate you will get the jist of it )
Or if you think you could help me out as well I would be really grateful
Thank you
Her blog address is: http://andersenhalott.blogspot.co.uk

I am in dire need of some financial help! I need someone to help me out of my current situation, i have gotten behind on my vehicle payment, and can't seem to catch up, am in danger of losing my vehicle. Any help would be appreciated, please help me!I had some unexpected expenditures and now i am struggling to make ends meet. I know that once I get caught up, everything will be ok. God bless all

I'm a 56 year old married woman who has been on social security disability for over 10 years.

In 2006 my husband and I were finally able to put a down payment on our home. This was my first home purchase and I was ecstatic. Chances are we probably shouldn't have qualified for this house, but the lending predators made sure we did.

Long story short, we are now into our second year of chapter 13 bankruptcy. While helping our youngest daughter with college expenses and other unexpected expenses we have fallen behind on our mortgage. I've have been paying what I can but it's not enough.

Everyday my stomach is in knots not knowing whether a motion is going to be filed to take our home away. We've worked hard for what we have, and if we lose it now, we will never be able to purchase again. We love our home.

If gives me pleasure to see my husband putter around in his front and back yard knowing that its the only joy he has aside from his stressful job and poor health. I think it would hurt me more knowing how it would break him to lose that serenity.

I know by next year we will be in a much better financial place, but right now we could use all the help we could get.

Thank you in advance.

I have a job, but after our families health insurance is taken out I only bring home $78 every two weeks. I know your thinking cancel it. You can only cancel once a year or of course you lose it if you leave this job. I don't want to leave this job.
Why is it so special, I work with special needs students. It's a very intense job,ages range from 14 -22 years of age. It takes a lot of patience and tolerance for the unexpected to happen. I have what it takes to do this job. Except money. I'm a teachers assistant. I trying to go to school to get a degree. I can't handle over two classes a semester. I have medical issues too, I'm to afraid to cancel my insurance due to the fact I have to go to the doctor and have regular check ups. We do not qualify for aid.

My marriage is not in the best of health either. I need help to save my home, maybe my marriage and my job. This is not easy for me. I'm just very scared, maybe someone will understand what I'm saying, I want to keep what I have, it's not much, I want to continue working in the job I have, I know it isn't going to pay my bills, but if I can get caught up I can still be there for those special kids. Finally, if the strain of being on the verge of losing our house is gone maybe I can heal my marriage. I don't want to throw away 30 years of my life.

We found out yesterday that our heat pump has gone out and needs to be replaced. I know air conditioning is a luxury but here in Florida it is almost a necessity. Especially if you have health problems.

And if you can't do anything for me, just pray for us, God bless, hopefully

I have posted here before, but I didn't confirm my email address so if anyone has tried to donate they couldn't.

My story is, I'm in my forties, married for 30 years. I have been happy and unhappy.Right now I'm unhappy.

We owe very little money on our house. However we are going to lose it to foreclosure unless we come up with seven thousand dollars. We have sold everything of value that we could sell.

We have always been hard working people, helped others when they needed it. Now we need help and have no one to turn to.

I normally don't ask for money. I'm a hard worker. My household income went from 3 incomes to 1. Unexpected costs have caused me to spend all my savings now I have no food to put on the table won't have enough to pay rent and will soon be without lights. Any help will be tremendously appreciated. Thanks and God bless.

My dad recently passed away and I quit my job to take care of him full time before he passed away. I was very close to my dad. My mom has been paying all the bills (except when we are blessed with unexpected blessings) I have been depressed and grieved so hard that I could not work. I am now just getting to where I can look for work again, but the bills have piled up and my mom now is very ill as well. Any amont you can give. Even if it is a dollar would help. Also please send me any prayer request that you may have for you and your family. Blessing on you. And thanks a lot for helping during this difficult time. It is people like you that make the world a better place.

We are a family of three and currently our take home pay is $1760.00 which is not enough money to cover our daily/monthly expenses. I am no longer employed full time and went from a $65,000 a year job to zero. My husbands company was forced to file bankruptcy and his pay was cut from $2400.00 per month to $1760.00 per month.

Our daughter is a senior in high school and is currently not employed. We have one car paid off but are still paying $615.00 per month on the other vehicle. Most of our credit cards are paid off but the ones that are not have been sent to collections. We have a couple old personal loans that we are still paying on. We have several past due Payday loans outstanding and the fees continue to accrue until they are paid off. We have already borrowed from family members so that is no longer an option.

The money will be used to help pay our utilities, rent and food for the three of us and food for our dog and cat. The utilities consist of lights, heat, water, sewer, phone and mandatory city garbage pick-up.

Also, we currently do not have medical insurance so have not been able to have exams or see a doctor for unexpected injuries. Anything would be appreciated to help us get our lives back on track again. Thank you for reading this. Have a good day.

Good Afternoon,

I am needing $600.00 for rent for the month of March. I had an unexpected car repair that took more money that I thought.
I am hoping there is someone who can help me out. I need the money by next Thursday.
I do have a pay pal account. Please respond to dcusa55@hotmail.com.

Thank you and God Bless.

Hello, I'm 24 years old. Last summer I opened up a consignment shop in my town. I put pretty much all my money and savings into opening up my store, money I worked hard to raise for it, and lots and lots of time and hard work. Well after 5 1/2 months of being open, my landlord sold the building out from under me and I had to close! All of my hard work and money was gone. I now have a hard time paying bills and owe a few people money yet. I am hoping to reopen my store in a new location this spring, but obviously I do not have the funds to reopen at this time. I want to do things right this time and I would like to purchase a point of sale system to keep track of all my sales and consignors. I would probably have about $6000-7000 in start up costs to reopen to pay for deposits, rent, insurance, supplies, computer system, security system, more shelving, possibly credit card equipment and services, hopefully some more inventory of my own, and any other unexpected costs that may arise, and I need enough money to sustain myself incase I don't make enough money to pay my rent, utilities, & other bills at first. This has been a dream of mine for a long time.. and I finally was able to make it happen last summer but had it taken away from me by my landlord and new owner of the building I was renting. Anything would help! thanks!

I've always struggled when taking care of me and my daughter because I don't have a high level of education so I've been working hard at stores and restaurants trying to maintain. Usually I can manage but recently due to unexpected medical bills I have fallen behind to the point where I could lose my place and possibly my daughter. I have no family to go to so it's just me. so I'm pleading with this community or anyone who reads this If you can help in any way I would greatly appreciate it, If not just please pray for me and my daughter. Thank you

My husband and I finally realized our dream of owning our own home in august of last year. We were budgeting and doing good, living within our means. Then I found out I was pregnant again after suffering from 3 losses. It was unexpected as we were finally at terms with only having two kids, it took us a long time to feel ok with it. Now this pregnancy has been rough, and our medical bills are already in the thousands. Our insurance isn't helping much. Also working 40 hours a week has become a memory since Xmas ended, we both work in retail and they've been cutting us left and right. So now here we are we made our house payment and the other essentials that our kids can't live without(heat and water) and we are done until payday two weeks away. We don't have enough to pay our medical bills that are due this month, or the overdue ones from January. We feel like we are sinking fast and to top it all off I have to take blood thinners for this pregnancy and that's $150-200 a month extra. We just want this little guy to make it, and we are pretty desperate right now. Please help?

We have always worked, paid tax and contributed to everything we should but occasionally life takes unexpected and unfortunate turns which have happened over the last year and our circumstances have become so reduced that we can no longer pay our daughter's rent while she is in her last year of university. A year ago we both had jobs and appeared in good health, then within a short time my husband was diagnosed with throat cancer and had to leave his employment as it was a "contract" job. Since then he has undergone chemo and radiotherapy and I have had to take so much time off to drive him to daily appointments that I had to relinquish my part-time job. As my husband has a small pension of just over £500 a month we are not entitled to any benefits. This goes towards paying the bills but there is nothing left over. I feel terrible about letting my daughter down and she is waitressing to help pay her own way but her rent is the catalyst. I feel so dreadful to suddenly pull the plug but there is no option. I cannot go back to work as my husband is too unwell to leave alone. I just pray that there is someone out there who can give me some help and when we can get over this tough time we can do the same for someone else.

Mine is a long story, so I am going to try to keep it on the short side.

When my wife and I got married she had twin daughters, both with severe handicaps. After we were married for about 5 years Ashley passed away. We were living about 7 hours from where my wife was from and she wanted her final resting place to be near her "home". We moved here to be closer to my wifes family and nearer to Ashley. Shortly after we moved here, I was taken out of work for health reasons. Then Courtney passed away. After paying for 2 funerals in a short time and not working, hard times hit us hard. I got a job against my doctors wishes. My wife got a job for a short time until she was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease, now she can't work. So for the past year we have some how been getting by with my income (barely over minimum wage).

So now with some unexpected bills for car trouble and medical bills, we are in need of help for our rent.

There is more to our story and if you want to know more, feel free to ask. But that is the basic part of it.

The amount that I need is $560, but anything would help right now
