Utilities Tags

I am a 21 year old who has lost his job and now I am facing many more problems than I have anticipated. I no longer have any money to pay my rent for my apartment, my car payment, or my utilities. I lost my job in March and I have depleted all my savings paying off everything that I can. I am searching for a job but have had no luck yet. I'm just hoping that someone would be willing to help me with any type of donation to keep my life going until I get another job. :(

I had a very large thymoma removed in 11/21. It was to be a 1 week hospital and 1 month home. it became a month hospital and 3+ months at home. I lost the use of 1 lung and am on oxygen. I have now returned to work. The problem is I can currently only work a max of 24 hours/week and I am out of leave. So my last 2 checks have not covered my bills. I have a $766 mortgage payment, $200 student loan,$250 monthly utilities bill, and of course $1000s in medical bills.

My request is help with these bills, which I will happily provide evidence for, so you know I am truthful. Another solution, which is preferable, is a job for my husband, this would allow us to help our selves and others.

I would love to promise to pay it all back, but I am not sure I will be able to do this, I was barely making it prior to going in the hospital. What I do promise is to pay it forward, once I am back up. I am willing to try to work something out if that would allow you to help me.

Oh where to start? I'm a military veteran, middle-aged single mother of two girls who have their own homes and jobs. I rescue stray cats and ensure they are spayed and neutered and vaccinated against rabies. I work full-time from 3 am to noon. I had an empty room when the girls moved out, and a family friend asked if he and his girlfriend could rent the room. Both best and worst thing I did. Best because the GF and I are good friends now and I trust her with my life. Worst because neither she nor I knew that her BF was smoking crack. He robbed us both blind and left. His GF is disabled (lupus) and on a limited income. She broke up with him and thankfully will not have a thing to do with him (good for her!). If I never see him again it'll be too soon! But now we're behind on every utility and rent. My one vehicle, a beat-up old Chinese scooter, which I drive to work rain or shine, hot or cold, needs several crucial repairs (tail pipe, horn, and rear brake), and though it works, it's not very safe at the moment. All I beg for is enough to get us caught up so I can fix my bike and keep neutering stray cats. We don't live like queens and once we're caught up with utilities and rent, my income and her stipend can support us just fine.

Hello to all and thanks for taking time to view my donation page. I'm 24 years old and I just saved up my last and moved to Nashville TN. I have a very promising future ahead with my music career in Audio Production. I'm in a very tight situation because I needed to get away from everybody slowing me down back home in Cleveland Ohio that does not want to see me succeed (including family, my 2 kids mothers, and people I thought were friends.) I've had opportunities at one point to make theme music for up and coming Disney, HGTV, ESPN and other shows just to name a few. Nobody really wanted to see me make it and help fund a Engineer so my dreams could become a reality. With the last of the money I was able to raise, I kissed my kids goodbye and moved to Nashville with a close friend from high school.
I figured that everything happens for a reason and prior to me moving, I found out that she has been out here in TN for almost a year with no furniture (bed, couch, dining-kitchen table) Its just her and her cat in a empty Apt. She has a job doing what she went to school for in the animal vet field but she's only recieving small pay. I know anything beats nothing but what is that for someone who graduated from WVU with a bachelors of science? She has Student loans to pay back to a actual bank, a car note, rent and utilities to pay for all on her own and her family is In Cleveland as well. They aren't fortunate to help the situation and anybody from Cleveland could understand why considering how the economy is.
Being a good friend(especially considering that im allergic to cats and there is no vaccume), I saved my last and moved down here because I figured I could help her as well as help myself. If we are going to struggle, we can struggle together. That's what true friends are for right? I have been here since Easter and it's still hard to adjust. She has a leased vehicle so im not really in the predicament to double up her mileage looking for jobs and going to school in it. Everything is so far apart here.I had intentions on going to school in the fall for Audio Production but one day i called a local school from one of the commercials and I ended up taking a tour the same day. I was so Excited to see the Music Studio that I wanted to start immediately!!! I then found out that I started school the very next month (May 7th to be exact.)
Now I have to find a job to go around my school schedule which is only 3 days a week but Im having trouble figuring out how I will even get to school. The bus system is different than back in Cleveland. In Cleveland, schools give students bus passes and they even get discounted prices for being students. Here is definitely not like that. I'm not complaining because I'm blessed to at least be away from all of the distraction and I'm enrolled into school. Now I'm just worried as to what it will take for us to be comfortable for a change.
I eat ramen noodles and Vienna sausages just about everyday to make food here last. I'm not complaining at all but I'm sure that after while i will start to get sick from this. The noodles have high sodium as well. Just barely making it is an experience that isn't fun and I wish this upon nobody. This is why I'm turning to a donation community.

Things all donations will go towards:

Food for home, Bus passes for my schooling, Furniture for our apartment (I'm seeing alot we can get for less locally on Craigslist), Internet so I can stay active with my production, More Music Equipment (the equipment is so expensive but im in the right state to get it used) and eventually a vehicle so I could get us around and not worry about my roommate going over her mileage.

Seems like I'm asking for a lot but I grew up knowing that everything happens for a reason and that prayer goes a long way. Somebody I met in passing recommended this site hearing me talk about my situation to a relative. Thanks in advance and even 1 dollar is appreciated.

What do you do when you have no other place to turn? You swallow your pride and post on this site.

Never in a thousand years would I expect to find myself here, but drastic times call for drastic measures.

I find myself in a situation where I need your help to make ends meet.

I had a second job to help pay the bills, but due to my Multiple Sclerosis it became to taxing and I had to quit.

My rent and utilities are now late due to a recent hospitalization that set me back and also the new medications my doctor put me on.

If someone can find it in their heart to help, you don't know how much that would mean to me and I will be sure to Pay It Forward when I'm back on my feet to help other people in my situation.

Thank you so much for reading and hopefully for helping!!

I am in much financial bondage right now as my rent is very late, and ALL of my bills are late. My utilities are going to be shut off shortly, etc. I was just hired by 3 different agencies but I don't begin working until Mid-June. I only have a couple dollars to my name, which i'm trying to stretch for gas to get to interviews.

My bank account is in the red, so I have a large hole to climb out of before I can even pay my bills. I desperately need assistance to survive until I receive my first paychecks. Thank you so much!

My daughter, mother, sister and myself are all that we have left. Lung cancer killed my dad, prostate took my grandfathers, breast took my aunts, colon took my uncles. I have cried everyday, all day. We have very little family and very little money. The funerals costs, the bills, took everything we had. We are flat broke. We are behind in all of our bills, rent,utilities, credit card and we really need help. My daughter is 7 and she cries and understands that we are very poor and we don't know anyone who we can turn to. I am begging with a sincere heart in hopes that any amount can be donated can save our small family and keep us going. I am constantly looking for work, but with my mom fixed income, my sister's disability and a young child I am always needed to get medicine, or to wash and clean my family and care for them. Any donation will sincerely be appreciated with humbleness and gratitude and I hope you will receive twice as much for your sympathy.

Recently my husband and I gained custody of 3 severely abused children ages 6,7, & 10. Money was so tight before we recieved these angels, but now with supporting them we cant afford even utilities, we have shut off notices and a car thats about to blow its transmission. These children have suffered enough, all we want is to be able to provide happy ,lives for them. They need bedding, clothes and everything else you can imagine, thank you for your humanity, you can txt me at 801) 8575794, I do not have paypal

My fiancé and I both got laid off the same week. We are both very hard workers. We were living off very little, but managed to save some money. After a month worth of bills, it's almost gone. We have been searching day and night for jobs and applying everywhere. Nobody is calling us back. We have enough money for utilities, but won't be able to make rent which is due in two weeks. We just got a new little car 2 months ago since our old one broke thinking we were going to be stable enough. We don't have money for that $400 payment either. Our wedding was supposed to be last week, which we had to cancel due to money issues. We just found out we are expecting. Which is the only positive thing so far, but we are going to need money for it also. We have sold most of our clothes and furniture. Both our families are struggling with money at the time so we are on our own.
If we don't get money soon, we will be car-less and homeless and our credit we worked so hard for will be ruined. Homeless and pregnant. I don't know where to turn. Any thing will be very appreciated, be it money or even just advice. We want to give our baby a good stable life, I'm so scared, please help :(

I never thought I could resort to this, but I am begging for help. I have a 2 year old baby. Last week a man shows up at my house (that I was renting from my mother.) And he says to me"I just bought your house at the tax sale, I'm going to start the eviction paper." The thing is, my own mother betrayed me by not telling me or give me any notice. I am a single mother who lives paycheck to paycheck. I don't have any money to move, give first and last months rent, switch utilities, etc. I can't drive due to a car accident that I had which left me legally blind in my left eye.I know the economy isn't great and a lot of people are suffering financially but if you are one of those fortunate people that can help someone, please find it in your heart to help me get on my feet, for the sake of my child. I can't bear to think of living in a homeless shelter with him. Anything can help. I will be eternally grateful to whoever helps me. I am a good person and I can't understand why this has happened, I pray to god for financially letting me get through this..

Please help with any amount you can afford please we are extremely short on food and fuel and we are behind on our utilities so like I said any amount will greatly help us

I have tried in many ways asking for help to keep my utilities on . I really am disabled and only have a very small income at this time . I am waiting on Social Security disability but that can take 8 more months so I am going to try a different approach to asking for help, instead of asking for one person to donate all I need I am asking each person who comes across this ad and reads it to send me one US nickle, heck even a US penny will do, it all adds up and if enough people send me a penny or a nickle I will be able to catch up my utilities so I do not loose my rent assistance and end up homeless. Yes this is for real, times are tough and I understand people just don,t have money to give right now, but anyone can afford a penny, a stamp, and an envelope. I give my word it will be put on utility bills and real needs such as glasses to see. Thanks and God Bless. Please No scammers, I am tired of scammers answering my ads. I have no money, can not work and no bank account, I have nothing for you to take, I will not cash checks and forward part of the money to some other person. I will not send you money to wire me money,I do not have money to do that if I did I would pay it on my bills. For those of you who will send me your spare nickels or pennies thank you so much. Have a great summer.

I am a mom who needs some help! Can't work at the moment and need to pay rent and utility bills. They total $2000. I am willing to pay it back. Please help any way you can.

Hello, my wife Is 9 months pregnant, I cannot work due to bad back and dementia. Please help us out if you can. Even the smallest gift donation will be of great help in our time of need. We have many bills on the verge of having utilities shut off, no car seat for baby and are $400 shy of making this months rent. Please help, thank you!

Hello, I would like to know if there is someone out there who could help me out. I make about $1400., net, each month. That income gets used up quite quickly on food, fuel, utilities, rent, and bills. Not much leftover to buy clothes or other small luxuries, such as make-up, or work shoes, etc.

It took me a very long time to do this, but I thought if I were in a position to help someone out, I would want to donate to someone like me. I'm a hard worker that doesn't make enough money to support me and my daughter, and my husband who can't find work.

We've been broke for several years and I can't allow my daughter to go without these much needed braces. The payment take a large bite out of my monthly income that I can't buy miscellaneous items we need.

I don't live in a home, either. I live in a R.V. But, I'm only asking for help paying for the braces.

I thank you for reading this post. I pray for continued blessings to you, and for me and my family.

I am a young mother of 2 small children ages 3 and 4... I am currently trying to make ends meet with my bills but my job has just cut me back on my hours... I am getting in deep with my utilities and trying to make ends meet for the needs of my children, but with just a very small paycheck I can not do it all. My husband was recently in an automobile accident with an 18 wheeler and I am currently taking care of him as well as our children.. but we can barely afford to get by.. I have tried asking for help through family, but that was no use.. I am a hard worker and a loving parent just trying to make a life for my children. I am not asking for a hand out... but if someone would be kind enough to help it will be apprechiated greatly! Please, will anyone help? Thank you and God Bless
