Being evicted in two days

Posted by singlepregomotherof4 on 2012-05-20 23:58:12

I am a single mother of four and eight months pregnant. I lost my job in Jan. due to "too many call-ins" I was a busser at a sophisticated buffet in a Casino therefore could not lift anymore heavy bus tubs. It was starting to harm my baby. As a result of me having to be call in to go to doctor's appointments and check-ups, I was terminated. I've been seeking other employment although it is difficult for anyone to hire due to I am at my Last month. At this time I am help for my rent. Today is the 20th of May & I will probably be evicted in 2 days. I have never asked for help. In this case, I have four innocent children who will be thrown out to the street. I beg in the name of Jesus for help please. There is a GOD and HE will surely see all good deeds! Please and Thank you very much!!!

Need help getting back on my feet again!

I recently got divorced and my ex-wife took our car that was paid for to leave me with the car that I found out she hadn't made a payment in over a year on it. I thought we were a few months behind and when I ask for the bank payment slips with the bank phone number on it so I could call and arrange a weekly payment schedule to get caught up she didn't know where it was. She had actually thrown it away so I wouldn't find it. Its a small bank the wasn't even in our town so I couldn't drive up there to talk to them. I asked for the bank name so I could google it but she supposedly didn't know. Well about 2 months ago I was at work and the car got towed! I'm stuck without a car and can't work because I have no ride. She had planned to divorce me and then leave me stuck with a car that wasn't being paid for so it would be towed and leave me without means of transportation so I could work. She always paid the car payments and screwed me over so bad. It sucks. I always use to work 2 jobs and made the most money in our household. She had us move back to her home town in a house that her brother and his girlfriend lived with us so that when we got divorced I would be forced to move out. I'm staying with a friend but I pay rent and it's so hard to pay rent and save for a car when I can't make it to work most of the time cause he or his girlfriend are working and their jobs are far away. I would be so happy if someone could help me get back on my feet by getting enough money for a down payment for a car or even enough to buy a really old cheap car that can at least help me to get to and from work ok! Any amount of donations would be so very appreciated. I have linked my PayPal account to this plea for help! I beat cancer 2 years ago so I know if I could beat cancer I can overcome this obstickle with just a little help from some kind hearted generous people! I pray that someone will help me. I'm not looking for $20,000 for a brand new car I just need to raise $500-$1500 so I can use it for a down payment on a decent used car or just buy a running cheap car. I would need a few extra couple hundred dollars for my first insurance payment also. Once I get that I can go back to work full time and pay my payments on my own and also my rent. I my prayers are answer I will be truly blessed and once that happens I will start helping others in need on this site also. If someone helps me it would be only right once I'm back on my feet to help others who could use a helping hand. We all have ups and downs and struggles but sometimes we truly do need just a little help from someone else to get back up!

I truly pray that someone will help me in this rough time. I want to thank you ahead of time in helping me out. You truly are wonderful people all who help me by donating! God bless you. To everyone else that is strugglIng right now there is hope and there is light at the end of the tunnel!

God Bless!

Any donation amount will be truely appreciated!

help or a prayer will do.

TWO sets of TWINS = a MUCH needed tummy tuck!

Posted by FoxxxyIndia on 2012-05-08 01:58:59

Hi...
I'm India... I'm now a student & stay-at-home mom of 6 month old twins. I previously worked as a make-up artist, but due to overwhelmingly high daycare costs i've decided to stay home their first year. I also have a set of six year old twins. Before my 1st set was born I weighed 118 pounds, after weight after they were born stayed a steady 125. So, when I found out I was having a SECOND set I immediately wasn't worried one bit about it because I'd dropped all of the weight before. Well, unfortunately this time it wasn't so easy. The second set left my body a mess. Due to a c-section my doctor told me to not exercise for six weeks. As soon as I got home from the hospital I began dieting. Running twice a day & sit-ups EVERY morning & night. Well, it's been six MONTHS & my stomach is STILL flabby due to loose DEAD skin that will NEVER re-gain it's elasticity. So unless I get the surgery, i'll FOREVER have this pooch. My insurance doesn't cover, obviously because it's cosmetic & I just don't see plastic surgery being in my immediate future. I just want to feel good about myself & look great in my clothes again. For someone who's had a nice body ALL of her life, THIS is NOT ideal. I know this might be a LONG shot, but if you can... PLEASE help! I'll gladly send you pics, if needed.
THANKS

I'm a single mother aged 35. I've lived in California for almost 14 years ( it will be 15 this year on memorial day weekend.)
I’m going to be a little blunt, because I'm tired and I want to give up so bad, but I can't. I'm better than that and my kids are my motivator. I wake up everyday and remind myself of 2 things :1) Faith is what you have when you all your beliefs are blown to hell. 2) What doesn't kill you makes you stronger -Nietzsche

I am a 35 year old educated, ambitious, head strong woman. I have owned my own business with my soon to be ex. I know what hard work and determination are. I went to private school and I am educated. I value my community and have always given back and will continue to do so. I also know that I have the drive and determination to get myself back on track. I'm not ASKING for a handout, I'm asking for help up! I also know what loss is. I don't have the business, a house or EVEN the car anymore. We lost everything. He bounced back , I didn’t. All I have is HOPE, that someone or some program can help me carve a path back to self sufficiency.
It's gone continually downhill.I am amazed at the allotment of programs for both housing and employment for all different walks of life. However, what about those that are just struggling. No hang ups, no record, just struggling and are LOW INCOME. I'm not writing this to make you feel sorry, I'm writing this because I have exhausted possibilities that I have researched both on my own or been given the information to do the work with.
There are people who struggle everyday through no fault of their own. They don't want a hand out, but help up would be a relief. Society doesn't need band-aids they need solutions.
Not every county, city or state program fits everyone's needs.
First of all Section 8 has been closed since BEFORE I left my marriage so that idea could never work. The list has been closed for years. Because I have limited time with my children, I do not qualify for CALWORKS. I have tried getting assistance in every way possible. I had very little unemployment left since I have been struggling to find work. I was delayed for about 3 months because they needed verification and I had to appeal and request a hearing. I have won my appeal but will only receive $91/week and for a short period of time.
I took a project management class through WIA in 2011, and I was able to get CTB benefits. I NEED HELP. I have hit the absolute worst point in my life and still refuse to give up. I have been looking for work and am now HOMELESS.I am in week 3 of staying in an extended stay hotel (paid for by my mother back east, who makes maybe $26,000/yr in PA) I recently sold my car because I needed to pay bills and rent. I have maybe $75 to my name.
The fact that they say there are services for low income/ homeless is frustrating. I say this because there is no category for me. I'm not a drug addict or in recovery. I don't have a mental illness. I wasn't in prison, I don’t' even have a RECORD. I can proudly say I've never been arrested or even in the back of a cop car. I'm not a victim of domestic violence and I do not beat my kids. Why aren't there programs in place for single parents struggling to make it? Everyday people that are responsible and respectable. I understand the need to assist those that may not have the capacity to take care of themselves. However, I have a huge problem with the fact that Santa Clara County & all programs (private, govt or state funded) will rehabilitate and reintroduced felons into the community, but if you're poor, homeless, no record, are looking for work, have high intelligence; sorry, you can't get help. This sounds extremely cynical and jaded, but I am a little after going through all I have.
I have been told constantly “I wish I could do something but we don't have any programs to help you.” My favorite reply is: "Yeah and you have done everything. I'm surprised you even knew about all the programs you did"
I have talked to employment counselors, program coordinators, program advocates and case managers, volunteers, just about anyone. The bankruptcy is hindering my chances of securing housing, even if I had employment.

The icing on the cake has to be with food stamps and General Assistance. I qualified for Cal-Fresh. However, at the time I had a car worth $2200. So I wasn't able to get General Assistance. Fast Forward a year later, I HAD to sell my car to pay bills. Now this month when I went for General Assistance, I qualify.

It's a never ending cycle, a constant push down. I can take public transportation to work, but to get around and see my boys and being able to transport them would be extremely difficult, not to mention financially stressing. I have scoured employment books, read articles, searched the library, spent hours online trying to find a job, program, a company, anybody who could be a resource whether for low income assistance or employment.
I can probably tell you about a plethora of services this county (Santa Clara) offers for both income assistance and job services.I am registered with CALJOBS; I know all the career sites and have my resume there. I get interviews, however I am starting to think the bankruptcy from loss of business is holding me back when employers do background check.
I also could teach the business writing class or the resume writing classes they offer at Work2Future, I practically did when I took them. I could do the same at Sacred Heart. I've been to InnVision and EHC. I’ve talked to Sunnyvale Community Services. Boy he was a treat he sounded older then my 80 yr old grandma. When I said I need housing and employment help, he gruffly told me to check the newspaper and hung up. I've called St Josephs in Gilroy. I've talked to a program coordinator at West Valley Community Services. I called the Sobrato Organization hoping they had ties to something and one the employees just by grace of god happened to pick up and take my call. I was able to talk to someone at HIF (they couldn't help)
.
I am responsible, respectable and just want to work, have a place to live, and be able to have my children 50/50. I have no police record. I am not in recovery, nor have I ever had to be in a program
I want to work and am attaching a compilation of ALL my work skills. I would not send this out otherwise, I would tailor it specifically to the job I am applying for.

I used to volunteer as much as I could I like being active in my community and helping others. I'm still about that I believe in PAY IT FORWARD. I believe the good you do comes back to you tenfold and that no matter what is going wrong in your life, someone else is struggling just as much if not more; so be thankful for what you have.
I attend church and was a hospitality volunteer for that as well.
I just need help getting on my feet. I have no family, other than my children here in CA.
I do not want to move back east and be far away from them. I want to work, I want to live again. I want to smile and mean it.

I hate what my life has become and know that I am SO MUCH BETTER THEN THIS.
Please help me : money is fine, but it's only a temporary fix, please help me find a program that can assist me in getting on my feet, direct me to employment, and most of all afford me the opportunity to have my children much more consistently so I can be a mom again.
Thank you
Courtney DiMiceli

To little time to save and now my heat pump went out too.

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

To much, not enough time

Posted by hopefully on 2012-04-29 20:58:13

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.

Help to make it home from England to N. Ireland

Posted by infotoxin on 2012-03-18 04:58:29

A few days ago I was was asked to attend some last minute university interviews, I planned a trip in a rush with what little money I had, borrowing the majority of it.

Due to a couple of travel and financial planning slip ups I've found myself with £20 left to survive until Thursday and stuck without transport in Derby on Wednesday (I need to make it on to York and then Leeds-Bradford airport in order to make it back home to Belfast). Even then I've no money to pay for my hostel bed in York on Wednesday night.

So I'm hoping some of you will be kind enough to give me what ever you can in order to help ensure that I can get to where I need to be in order to get home, and perhaps eat whilst I'm here. otherwise I'm going to be stuck in England with nowhere to go for the foreseeable future.

American dream slipping away

Posted by withaprayer on 2012-03-04 13:58:59

In 2009 my wife injured her back resulting in surgery and permanent disability. Our income was cut in half. Ive been doing all i can to hold on, working extra jobs on top of my full time job, selling every thing we have a little at a time to try and pay the bills, robbed what little was left of my 401k with the hope that she could get on disability. But she hasnt and im getting to the point of loosing it all.So here i am my last resort. Im looking to raise some money to start a concession business on the side. This is a business i know and feel can be the life saver i need. If your fortunate enough to be able to help it would be greatly appreciated. If i get enough to get this started i will return to return the favor. Any amount is appreciated. Include your e-mail with your donation and if this gets started i will send you times and locations when ill be set up and coupons for free funnel cake or lemon shake ups. The bigger the donation the more coupons.

Single father needs help!!

Posted by rolexcomm on 2012-01-28 12:58:34

Hi I am a single father of one who feels like he is in the movie In Pursuit of Happyness!!. We have a family business that we run abroad which has fallen on its knees and has required new investment to get it back in form. I am currently undergoing a facelift and investing all my resources in this business and trying to get it going. I have pretty much sold everything we have and taken the money and reinvested it in the business.

I had to take my son out of school to bring down my personal expenses as well. I enrolled him in a state side school in Tucson Az. Now this school is great but they won't ship his school supplies to me and therefore i have to have them reshipped here to our location.

I really don't want cash donations but will take them if that is all I can receive. I would prefer someone who has a dhl, fedex, or ups account just assume the cost of shipping on their account and it be over and done with and have them shipped. If the only means by which i can do this is to receive several smaller donations, then great this would be a great help too. I am guessing the cost of this is probably about $200.00 u.s. dollars to get his supplies shipped to me. We just do not have any extra money right now. Thank you for your time and any help would be appreciated.

Posted by tazlikdat on 2011-12-27 20:58:41

My daughter and son in law had one child and had been trying for a second for several years ( 9 to be exact ). Me and her mom paid for fertilization treatments for about 2 1/2 years and had basically given up hope when they went for their anniversary and we watched the grandchild, and you guessed it she got pregnant. That was great news but a few weeks later we found out it was twins. While having a second child was going to be a little tighter on the budget, twins has totally busted it. They don't have the room for 5 people in the house as it is and money got tight real fast due to added hospital bills and doctor co-pays. We have helped as best we can but I am just starting out a business from home with no credit or savings and my wife is a in home care-giver for a charity organization which don't pay much. My son in law works at a wood mill and with the ups and downs in the construction industry he is just getting by. It's a good thing that he at least had the medical but that is going to cost more out of pocket after the twins arrive. What is needed is a bigger and more sound home for them to live in they know someone that is selling a double wide manufactured home in a trailer park. The owner only wants the balance owed which is about $15,000.00.
They tried to get a loan but were turned down and we can't co-sign because we don't have the credit.
We would all appreciate any and all help to get things right for them this coming year. The twins are due by the end of this year (2011). Thanks to all that help !

Donations for our miracle at an unfortunate time

Posted by torque on 2011-10-06 23:58:05

I have been an electronics engineer until two years ago when our company's continued down sizeing left me without a chair. While I actually am working its mostly min wage jobs and mostly under 40 hours. I have one daughter and my wife is now 5 months pregnant. We do manage to scrape some funds together to bring wife to her monthly check ups. However it is the cost of the delivery. Our debt is getting larger while our living expenses seem to grow. We have downsized our lives as best we could.

I realise some peoplemay consider it irresponsible; having another kid with our economic situation. This pregnacy comes a compleate surprise to everyone, wife, me and Dr. During the delivery of our first child my wife had some complications. There had been an emergency C-section perfromed. As result we got a beautiful healthy daughter, but there was a consequence. Basically the doctor told us my wife my not be able to get pregnate again. I mean the odds against was astromonical. Maybe you can say this new baby will be a miracle. Just a miracle during unfortunate times.
Im not asking alot of money from a few people. I hope alot of people can send a little. GOD BLESS.. I do promiss I do help and will help others in simular situation when I my economic status changes for the better. I you please you can donate to my j-thibault@hotmail.com
I can send pics and updates to donars if they like.

Help for single Mother with Lupus.

Posted by helper4 on 2011-08-24 22:58:18

I'm asking anyone who reads this post to please donate one dollar in order to help me with my medical cost for Lupus. Lupus is a disease in which the bodies immune system attacks and injures the bodies own organs and tissues. I've been suffering with lupus for over 10yrs and it has caused me to develop kidney failure, heart failure, gallstones, hair loss, sores within the ears, sores along my chest, disfiguring scars along my face, gout, and rheumatoid arthritis. I was fired from my nursing job because my Lupus flare ups caused me to miss work and remain hospitalized for weeks on end. I worked with the sick and injured for more than 20yrs and i enjoyed every minute of it. I just never thought that I would end up in the same situation as the people I cared for for so many years. atop all of that, my medical expenses are continuing to rise because of my hospital visits. please please please take into consideration all the things i've mentioned and please donate a dollar.

help please

I am battling depression from the stress and I really don't know what to do anymore. I pretend everything is ok, it's so hard to let anyone know otherwise. I just smile and say I'm fine. Most people don't know I have a disease that could stop my heart at any moment, it affects 6000 in North America so it's pretty rare. I have no insurance so I can't see a Dr. I'm only 25 and have a daughter to take care of. I want to see her grow up. My husband works all day to make our house payment, we get our bills paid every month, sometimes late but they get paid. We usually have $10-$20 left every week to buy food and gas. I know everyone is struggling right now and it's so hard and the stress from it all is making my health problems so much worse. I don't know what to do anymore, I just sit and cry. I hate for my child to see my like this. I hate the constant fights over money. I've tried working from home but because of my condition I don't have the energy to do anything other than care for my child. I am beyond frustrated. Please if you can, please help us. I can't take my daughter to the Dr to get check-ups.. I can't take myself to the Dr to prevent this disease from killing me. Every day of my life I have prayed for the world and I just need someone to please pray for me, I'm running out of strength. Thank you & God Bless you all.

Small investement required

Posted by hippoman on 2011-07-14 09:58:31

Hi,
My name is Simon and i live in the UK, I have been under the weather for 3 years due to lifes ups and downs ,and i am on the road to recovery ,I took up texas hold em poker a year ago and have played in 2 big live events one in the UK and one in Europe which i qualified online for ,for a total of $30.I live quite close to Europes biggest poker club called dusk till dawn and i wish to start playing 3 or 4 live events a month plus a few small tournaments a week.
The problem i have is there is no public transport to this venue and i need a cheap car to get me there and back , i am offering someone the opportunity to 30% of any winnings i have there for 1 year. this can be checked online when i am in a tournament at the dusk till dawn poker club website , I am looking for £800 to purchase and insure a vehicle for one year, all entry fees to any tournament will be met by myself.
If things goto plan as i expect i estimate a minimum return of £2500 and i think that is on the low side if i am honest , thanks for reading and i hope someone is willing to help me get started and make a bit of money for their investment.
After 1 year if anyone is interested I would welcome someone to join funds with me to enter the bigger tournaments around Europe
I can be contacted at soxieicke@yahoo.co.uk
thank you for reading

Paying it Forward

Posted by EconVictim on 2011-07-03 13:58:23

So let's get straight to it: I'm a 28 year old double bachelor's graduate. I initially had a Finance degree (magna cum laude), couldn't find a steady career, went back for my Accounting degree (again with honors), and still can't start my career due to "lack of experience". I hold down two terrible paying jobs and typically work from 7am to 9pm on the weekdays as well as 1pm-7pm on Saturdays, totaling to over 70 hours a week.

I live at home with two elderly parents: my father is retired and legally blind thanks to macular degeneration, my mother an immigrant with no driver's license with a list of medical conditions a mile long. We enjoy a crumbling house which desperately needs repairs to the roof and driveway thanks to harsh rains and a heavy winter.

I'm doing all I can to keep things afloat and maintain the household, which is hard with the limited amount of time on my hands, not to mention the occasional flair ups of my Crohn's disease. Oh yeah, I don't have medial insurance and cannot afford the ridiculously priced medication. Thank you to the Doctor who helped diagnosed my condition at a VERY discounted price.

I know I can make it through this and somehow regain the semblance of a normal, healthy life. All I'm asking for is whatever relief I can get to help chip away at my expenses and keep things moving forward. The immediate plan is to repair the house and finish paying off my student loans and my parents' high credit card debt while trying to start a career.

If- no WHEN I make it to the end of the tunnel, I will absolutely pay it forward to someone else in a similiar situation. I do have a history of volunteer work when things weren't as bad, and I still sometimes give time to a local soup kitchen. ANY help is appreciated. Thanks for your time!
