What if ?

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.

Recent college grad, trying to get on his feet

Posted by PoorWriterGuy on 2012-05-09 12:58:34

I recently got my Bachelor's Degree in Writing and English in Grand Rapids, MI. The economy out there is terrible, so I took a train to Seattle, WA. I'm currently staying with a friend in Bellevue.

Pretty soon here, I'm going to have no money. My friend wants rent money by June 1st - $400. I can't afford to eat and pay him rent at the same time.

My beg is for any money you can possibly spare - just enough to get a meal or two would be nice enough. I've applied for over 35 corporate positions in the last two days, and countless minimum wage positions.

Work is also acceptable. I am a published writer, and I would be happy to edit/proofread/write documents for you in exchange for money.

Thank you

Dream Project

Hello everyone. I'm asking your assistance so that I can attend art school in Canada, complete my book projects, fees to cover project costs, time developing the projects, travel, location, and housing costs for it all. I also need a vehicle that won't break down on me. I'm a struggling writer, artist, and poet. I also have tons of information about myself that you can read and look up. And, the link to help me out is: http://www.gofundme.com/ka1ic

need money for university fees

Posted by hlyh1230 on 2012-03-04 11:58:11

I'm student from Universiti Malaysia perlis(UniMAP) in Malaysia,currently studying Mechanical Engineering in 2nd year.For this semester I haven't gathered enough money to pay for my fees.As I will be barred from examinations if I don't settle down the fees,I have tried writing articles/freelance writer online but with quite limited funds.Currently I still lack of about RM340(about $117 in US Dollar?)So here I pledge any of you to donate some to me,hope that I'll get enough money by the end of this semester by writing~Thanks for watching..
**IMPORTANT** I know that a lot of people look at these and think that their donations won't do any good as the person posting will just get in trouble again eventually. This is NOT the case for me. Your donation of any size WILL help and I will MAKE it successful so you will never see me here again ;)
Please take a chance, knowing that what you give will have a real effect that will help me to help others!
THANK YOU!
They say these things should be short, but I will take a chance in giving you the whole picture. Thanks for reading!
In 2009, I was made homeless by Hurricane Ida in Virginia. That same year, I became disabled with COPD, sciatica and fibromyalgia. It has been a long, slow process of recovery,pain, poverty,and the accompanying humiliation. I have had to give up my car, my cottage, and my job.

However, thanks to the efforts of very dear friends and some self-made luck I finally have a stable living situation, and the strength to embark on a new career as a writer and self-publisher of Spiritual and New Age materials.
Writing is where I find my greatest joy, (followed closely by my painting) and my experiences have given me rewards of perspective that makes the challenges I still contend with somehow worth it. I'm looking to help others find the inner strength and hope that I found through my own crisis.
You can read some of my writing at my blog:
http://grace-in-search-of-grace.blogspot.com/

My computer, however, is almost 8 years old and between the "pages not responsive" and "Chrome has crashed", system crashes and stalls, etc it routinely takes me up to 3 hours to upload anything to the site. I have very limited energy, and this can take up an entire day.
The the age of the machine means that it is limited in terms of upgrades and networking.
I've learned and done all I can to keep it running this long, but now I need a new one if I am going to be able to do the kind of heavy-duty publishing and posting to make it in this field and become self-sufficient.
I am looking for $5,000+ to cover the following costs:
*computer
*printer/scanner/fax
*paper
*toner and ink
*website hosting for a year
*Domain Registration
*Non-profit status registration
*Dedicated phone line
*Art supplies for graphic design
*Photoshop software
*Print-on-demand membership for 1 year

Anything is greatly appreciated!

I will do my utmost to pay it forward to those who are also in need.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Help with funding

Posted by Soslaundry on 2012-01-28 19:58:24

Hope some of you can help me:

Im in need of some help here's my story so far, I started my business in aug 2010 and I'm trying to invest more money into it I have been going for over a year with myself and my brother as business partners and have not taking a wage since it started. It's been very hard for us we sold both our cars he had a golf v6 4 motion and I had my supra to start it up also we had 2 thousand each savings from previous employment.
We are working hard in making our business bigger we are trying to advertise in our local paper and getting more machines but it's very expensive,we are handing out flyers every day but it's not doing to good as most people don't even look at them just bin them "like I do" thinking its just junk mail.
We are putting this on our facebooks and twitter to try and raise some money to get the business off the ground and give it the best chance for surviving. I have the ad from our local news paper where our work is and the business writer has put in a story on how we are trying to help the elderly on what we do. He is a very nice man mr kelly.
I hope Im not offending anyone but putting this post up I'm just needed the help. Every penny will be very gratefully appreciated!

I just want it to work for us thanks for reading :)

Just a little about the business, there was a community laundry which was Owned and run by the south Tyne side council and it shut in just under 2 years ago there was over 1000 customers on their books and were either very old,disabled or had children that were disabled. And have been left with no service since it closed that where we stepped in as my brother used to be a driver for them. The people the community laundry employed were people with learning difficulties and have since found no work we have made it our target to keep in touch with them as we have been doing for a year now and to give them back their jobs. The paper article tells more.


Here's the website read http://m.shieldsgazette.com/news/business/latest-news/new_laundry_aims_to_clean_up_1_3975971
Hi
I am 28 years old student currently studying LLB Law. I never knew that there is such thing as a begging site. I am in a very critical situation right now. When I was 10 years old someone tried to rape me. Thus, every since then I suffered from anxiety and depression and I have been taking anti depression tablets. My depression has deteriorated as a result of not being able to pay my tuition fee!Whoever is willing to help me and change my life can ask for any medical prove or whatever they wish as an evidence that this beg is genuine and true. Please, please, please any help would mean so much to me. I want to be as the rest of my sisters and brothers. People in my family neglect and bully me and tell me that I am unable to do anything!!! I am not a good writer but your help will mean so much to me. I want to prove them wrong. I am young, I need a chance for a new life.

Thank u

Talented writer seeks help

Posted by thewriter on 2012-01-25 09:58:35

Hi, I am a talented Irish writer who is looking for some financial aid. I lost my job a year ago and have spent that time concentrating on my writing. Having received several positive responses from agents and publishers it has encouraged me to continue and follow this as a career.
However, the bills are piling up. It is causing me undue stress and is taking away from my ability to write. I do believe I have what it takes to be successful in my chosen field. All I ask is for a small donation from your good selves to help me keep my head above water so that I can follow my dream.
Every cent counts. I believe in paying it forward and I'm hoping you do too.
Thank you all in advance.

Children Book Publishing monies

Posted by ruthsaylor on 2011-12-28 15:58:59

I am looking for help to start publishing my children's book.
The cost is $5999.00 for 500 hardback books. Because it is a children's book and I painted colored illustrations...The cover needs to be hardback(which cost more than a paperback).
Two books to start costs $11,998.00.
I was working two jobs. I lost my job April 2011. Now, my part-time job (Kmart) may close their doors, as well.
So, I want to turn lemons into lemonade!
I want to continue to become a children's book writer.
My first book has a copyright and is in the Library of Congress waiting to be published.
There are many publishers that will sign up new authors for free. But, the consequences are that the author never sees their royalitites and the monies goes to the publisher.
This is why I want to publish my own books.
I want to reinvest the monies to buy more books for the book stores.
I want to see my dream come true!

IF EVERY VIEWER...DONATED AT LEAST ONE DOLLAR TO MY BOOK...THEN, I WOULD HAVE ENOUGH TO GET MY BOOK/BOOKS PUBLISHED.

If you do find it in your heart to donate...I want to thank-you with all my heart for you are truly appreciated!
God Bless You!

Sincerely,
Ruth S.

Writer Needs New Glasses

Posted by AppreciativeRecipient on 2011-12-18 14:58:10

Please consider helping a writer with a vision exam and glasses. It will cost about $400 for both. It is getting hard to focus on the computer screen and even to read street signs when driving,which is just dangerous. Also am undergoing a job search at this time and have a financial catastrophe happening due to lack of work. Please help if you can. If you give $50, only seven other people would need to respond to help me have safe and clear vision. Any amount will be appreciated. If over $400 is received, it will go to handle other medical needs. Thank you.

Help with rent while I study Bible, write music

Posted by ssmcmahon on 2011-11-03 19:58:09

Hello everyone -
I've recently moved to Brooklyn where I intend to create a music ministry and fellowship community from scratch.

Most of my time for the next few months will be devoted to Bible study, sermon/theological writing, and composing worship music. I have not yet found music students, so I am asking for help to pay my rent while I do this work. Consider it a contribution to a good cause, or just help for a struggling musician/writer. Thank you all.

alcoholic abuse victim needs donations

Posted by nickyandfree on 2011-09-21 11:58:32

Hello, I dont know if this works and people actually donate or not but im willing to try. I am a 34 year old single female who is alcohol dependant and suffering from depression and dissociation. I contemplate suicide daily as im in so much poverty and cant afford the help I need to get well. I long for the help of a pyschiatrist to help me but havent the money to pay for it. I am constantly struggling to pay for food and electric and am behind on my rent. I have to live on £60.00 a week and find it unbearable. would love some money so I could have some joy back in my life and be able to pay for the help I need. I doubt anyone will donate but just expressing my sadness helps. I feel completely lost like im living in a bad dream that I cannot wake up from. Im haunted nightly by horrific sexual abuse dreams and feel totally alone in this world. My dream was to become a writer one day but my sickness has taken over so much of my life that even getting washed is a struggle for me now. sometimes id like to sleep forever as my world is to difficult to live in. Any donations or help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Nicola
This is my first, and hopefully the last time I'm reaching out for financial help. I'm a university degree holder, a young writer from one of the poorest and most under privileged countries from Eastern Europe. English is not my first language, but as you see in this post I'm fairly educated. Soaring unemployment prevents me from making the minimum money needed to pay the bills I share with a flatmate.
I'm doing my best to change things, I'm starting my own little website since I can't afford more than 1 domain name at the moment. So...I'm NOT lazy, I'm passionate about work and the circumstances are suffocating.
Please help me by a small donation of your choice to bypass this month (bills) while I'm creating onloine streams of future income. WHOEVER helps me NOW when I'm in need - WILL BE rewarded, I'm willing to share my future success to say a big THANK YOU. I can write articles for you, or give away some of my future little commercial websites! Opportunities of my saying thanks are manifold. It's called good karma, you give and it'll return to you multiplied :)
I know there's a bright future for me, I only currently need your support so I don't face an eviction because of being late with bills for the last 2 months. :(
Please help me pull through and experience my genuine gratitude in the months to come.
THANKS

Help us get water and power turned on!!

Posted by clamp90 on 2011-09-04 02:58:56

This is an urgent cry for help. My family recently moved into a new home on the 31st. When trying to get the electricity transferred to the new house we were informed that our equal payment plan had been exceeded and we needed to pay a $250 deposit plus pay off our balance of ~$475. The first months rent and deposit has tapped us out and it is impossible to get these things turned on. My husband recently got laid off and is on unemployment while looking for a job; I am a freelance writer and am having a hard time finding enough jobs to save enough to get power and water on plus pay this months rent and the other half of the deposit. Our three children are staying with relatives until we can get our house into working order and we really want them back at home with us. If anybody could help I could write anything you might need written or even pay you back over the course of time. I really need some help getting this together; once we can get these bills taken care of we will be back on track. Thank you so much for your time and consideration.

When it rains, it pours

Posted by deliadd on 2011-08-30 02:58:56

My own personal computer has died, and that is a problem as I run a small business (publishing/production company) and I'm a writer. These are about the only things I get any income from. I have a part time job but it is not cutting it at all.
If someone could donate $298 so I could get a replacement computer (using a friend's now), I would be forever grateful and be sure to pay it forward.

Had a Dream, Sister Crushed It

Posted by StillTrying on 2011-08-26 10:58:43

I was just starting a career as a professional writer, until my sister shot down my career... out of plain old jealousy. Never thought I'd experience something like that from family. Using fictional back-talk and torpedoes, my sister set things up so that the family friends who were helping me ended up disliking me. She even once told me she preferred seeing me down and out! Soon after being thrown under the proverbial bus, I was no longer offered writing work, regardless of the fact that I had already proven my talent. Unemployed, I went $35K into debt and had to sell my possessions to move to another city. Four years later, I'm still clawing my way out of the hole with a low-paying crap job, and still trying to cling to a dream of writing for a living again. But I'm not getting any younger, the job will end soon, and the debt is ever present. I need my life to mean something. I want to matter. I wish to get back to where I was just starting out, free of this financial burden. I would be on square one again, of course, thanks to my sister, but at least I will be beyond her influence. Hopefully, and with a little luck, I can carve out a meaningful life. Please help me get there. Please help me recover my dream.
My fiancee just lost his job for going out of his way to help a customer who needed to catch a plane, only to be faced with an angry manager.

I'm working two jobs right now, but I don't make nearly enough to pay our bills. I work as a math instructor and at a fast food restaurant. Once the fall semester starts, I will be making even less.

We have rent, student loans, and utilities to pay. In addition, I have over $1000 in medical bills due to an insurance goof that left me without insurance during a one evening stay in the ER.

A little bit more about us: I'm going to a small private liberal arts institution to get my B.S. in Biology and a license to teach middle and high school science. Teaching is my passion in life and I can't imagine doing anything else. My fiancee is an aspiring artist and writer. If we weren't struggling so much, he'd be able to self-publish his first book.

Help an author get recognized

Posted by LittleLulu13903 on 2011-06-17 10:58:22

I am an avid reader and writer since I was a teenager. While I write and read on a variety of topics, my favorite genre is fantasy.

To keep things short and simple, I finally got my first novel-which is geared towards teenagers and young adults-published and it is for sale through the kindle store. I decided after several years of rejection through taditional publishers, to go the kindle (and other handheld device) route. Doing it this way gives the average lover of fantasy the opportunity of reading my book.

While I will not get rich with this book-I am offering this at the lowest cost possible-I want to become recognized as an author. I know it will not happen over night. However, I believe that if I can sell at least 1,000 copies of my book-which is highly probable with the amount of individuals who own a kindle or have a kindle app on their phones-I will be heading in the right direction.

So please help me reach my goal of selling 1,000 copies.

By the way I am in the middle of editing a second fantasy novel, which I also plan to distribute to Kindle.
