Financial Assistance Needed

No time for pride. I need help.

I have a pride problem. I never ask for help, but I'm quick to offer a roof to those who don't have, food for those who are hungry, love to those who are abandoned . . . unfortunately, I have not run across many people like me. I am not looking for a loan because I am already in such debt that I can not see my way out right now. I am just looking for an angel (or a few angels). I am not looking for a sugar daddy because I am very much in love with my husband. We have 3 kids (6, 4, and 3). I am not anxious to share a lot of personal information, because the world is not all "innocent and sweet." I am just a struggling wife and mother, living in a double wide that I am having trouble trying to keep, but can't afford to lose. My husband began a job 2 weeks ago, 1 hr 20 mins from home. Pay is okay, but over half of it goes into gas. My job is 35 minutes from home. Because of my title, people assume I "got it made" when actually, I make less than $10/hr AND I am hourly AND I am restricted to 40 hours/wk. So, there is my short story. I hope someone who has the heart and the means will come across this post and just trust God that I am real. I know that my God will not put more on me than I can bear. I also believe it when He said I have not because I ask not.

I work 12 hours weekly, my fiance is an ex-con and has been fighting hard to get a job, but no such luck. He is also attending drug court and has been clean for 7 months. We are getting evicted tomorrow and have no place to go. It is extremely cold out there, but most landlords don't care about anything, but their money. Luckily, a church helped with our electric, but cannot pay rent. We are struggling with even being able to keep food.

My name is Tina. I am a thirty year old married mother of two boys ages 14 and 10 from Lancaster, Ohio. My children have alot of medical problems that prevents me from being able to keep a job. I have filed for social security disability for my oldest son but was denied, which I am appealing but they say it could take another 24 months for a decision. My husband is working only part-time as a janitor and trying to pursue his life long dream as an amazing artist which we are trying to get his name out. Which would also be a blessing if anyone have any suggestions on how we can do that also. We are struggling day to day to get by, our bills are months and months behind, our rent is about due again and we are not able to pay the full amount and have a huge chance we may get evicted. I lost my father on October 8, 2008. He was my angel, my strength, and my everything. He was young and had a long life ahead of him but a tumor of the brain took him from us. My Grandmother passed away only six months later. My mother is losing her battle to bilateral breast cancer and bone cancer. She is unable to help herself, so she wouldnt be able to help us. I have nobody left that can help me, Im desperate, scared, depressed, and losing faith. I dont know where to turn or what to do. I need a miracle, and I need it fast before we are homeless. If you have any information that could help us, or a website or application sent to me to get a personal grant. Any suggestions would be very deeply appreciated. Please email me at:   tinagrant1231@hotmail.com

Greetings to all....

A brief description about myself, and a financial situation that has me left me desperately seeking the aid of others. 

I am a 38 year old disabled & unemployed male from the S.W. My wife, who has worked extremely hard at providing for the two of us, has become increasingly stressed over the fact that two months ago her employer began cutting her hours, and that she is the only one of us that can work to pay these financial obligations.

For some time now we have tried to manage this situation by asking for extensions and bill payment plans from each of the places where we owe money, but, although, this may have helped temporarily we are now to the point that we have nothing left to live off and we still haven't the needed funds.

Although, I cannot honestly say that we are in the midst of a forcluser or that we are about to lose our car, but I can honestly say that we need help. We are trying to figure out how we are going to make it this month since the majority of my wife's money will go to pay on our mortgage and car payment, but this has left us with little money to buy food and pay on other expenses, such as food, electricity, water, doctor visits & medicines.

If you feel in your heart that you can help us in any way possible, please do. I cannot convey enough the sincere amount of gratitude and apprectiation to any of those who would choose to help us in our time of need. If you feel that you can afford to help us please feel free to send anything that you can, I am possitive that God will see us through. God Bless You!

Sincerely,

Life's Journey

     I'm not very good with digital photography so I don't have a picture.  I'll get my daughter to help me insert one later.  I have not been steadily employed since 2005 and we have really been struggling financially since then. My husband's main job of 20 years is steady, but we had just bought a house when my work dropped drastically. I earned a B.S. degree in secondary chemistry education in 2001 and had hoped to start a second career after being laid off from my job of 15 years as an engineering/process technician.  I was able to work as a teacher for 2 years with a special certificate but I didn't pass my Praxis II and my certificate expired.  I've worked as a substitute since and have not been able to find another job, so I haven't had the money to retake the test and get certified.  I substitute "as needed" and I have not been getting very much work.  My husband's income alone is not enough. He is a licensed, ordained,  minister and occasionally he is asked to preach and is given a donation. This has helped but not enough. Now we're behind on our house payments.  We need some financial assistance to catch our mortgage up and  help me pay for study materials and the test fee so I can get my teaching certificate.  I have not been holding out for a teaching job, I've been applying for every available job that I'm qualified for, but I have not gotten any offers. I know I could find work as a science teacher if I had my certificate.   We need help fast.

I am a single mother of a 12y/o son. I was in a near fatal car accident on 3/10/2005 when someone ran a stop sign which crushed my pelvis & fractured my C2-C3 vertebrae (hangman's fracture) which resulted in numerous surgeries over 1 month hospitalization & left me permanently disabled. I am now trying to live on $979 per month that I receive from Social security that took 2yrs to receive. My mortgage alone is $849 per month therefore I am desperately in need of any assistance anyone could offer as I have exhausted all of my savings & needless to say as a result of filing bankruptcy to relieve my million+ $ obligation to pay medical bills not covered by the Florida NO FAULT INSURANCE I have no resources left to fall back on & fear the imminent loss of my home & everything I worked very hard to provide for myself & my child. If anyone can offer any assistance I would sincerely appreciate your kindness!

Thank you for taking the time to read my request & may GOD BLESS YOU!

PS MY SITUATION & MEDICAL CONDITION AS WELL AS MY INCOME CAN BE VERIFIED

About year2008df

I am not disabled or sick or elderly. I just need a little help to get back on my feet. I have been out of work for 2 months now and I need help to pay for my basic needs. I have a wife and 3 children. I have twin girls age 13 and a 5 year old boy. I just want some assistance to pay for the basic needs of my family (food, rent, electricity, water). I am asking for about 2 months of assistance to allow me to find a job plus money to catch up on rent and utility bills. My water was turned off today. I have a turn-off notice for my electricity if not paid by tomorrow (4/11/2008). I am two months behind in my rent. I need about $2500 to catch up on past due bills plus about $2500 to sustain my family for 2 months. Thank you in advance for your help and consideration.

I am a 31 year old married woman with an eleven year old daughter.
On May 18, 2007 at 3:30 pm our lives changed forever. My husband fell approx. 12 feet. He fractured his skull in 3 places, broke his sternum, broke 2 right ribs, he had pulmonary contusions, and he broke his back at T-10. Upon arriving at the hospital I was told there was little hope. They air evaced him 2 hours away to a trauma center.
He did survive, however things are very different. He is now a parapalegic. We went through so much, it was nearly a month before he knew who I was! He was released July 17, 2007.
We came home to no money and a pile of bills. As hard as it is just caring for him all alone, the worst part is the financial burden. We both worked and we did not recieve public assistance. I can't pay whats due much less catch up what wasn't paid while he was in the hospital. I'm so afraid. I have to catherize my husband every 4-6 hours to drain his bladder, do digital stimulation on his bowels, bathe, and dress him, do range of motion excersizes, etc. He is totally dependent on me. I do all this ALONE. I don't mind so much because I love him and he'd do the same for me.
We live in a trailer, not ran down but old, nearly 12 to be exact. I've always been one to spruce things up on a budget and I am quite the neat freak, I owe over $20,000 on it. It was to be our starter home. Our plan was to stay here and get it paid for in 6 years then get a house. We live in a mobile home community on a rented lot, I've been unable to pay the rent.
We bought a used vehicle in Feb. & I can't pay the note on it, it's in need of repair.
Little things I always took for granted like laundry detergent and bath soap are hard to come by. I feel so alone and embarrassed.
What am I to do?? We need help bad and fast! 
I am sharing my story with you in hopes that someone will help us.
Thank you & God Bless!

Need Help, Please

I am looking for assistance on getting out of my financial burden. My husband is disabled and I have a 7 year old son; currently we are struggling to get by on one income. We don't qualify for any financial assistance and my husband isn't elligible for Disability. If I could eliminate some of my debt I would be more financialy secure and less stressed about how we will continue to survive on only one income. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Need some financial assistance

Gosh I hate asking for help ... but here goes. I got into trouble when my husband got sent to jail. Divorced him. Lost the house with only one income. First husband sued for custody of three kids and through it all I just keep getting farther and farther behind. And once you get behind on bills it's really tough to get caught up. I earn a decent living but I just can't get caught up. I work a second freelance job to help but it's not enough. Raising three kids. I don't have expensive tastes, don't drink, smoke or do drugs. Just can't get a caught up. I'm three months behind on car payments and can't afford to lose my wheels or I can't get to work. If I wasn't living this, it would sound like a sob story somebody dreamed up. Can anyone help?

Family in need of assistance

    Hi. My family is in need of financial help. My husband isn't working right now. He was fired for being sick with a virus. This was after he had quit a job he had because an old employer called him back. We have 3 kids who are about to start school this week. I can't go back to school right now. I really can't work where there is alot of physical work because of a spinal cord injury. I would like to finish school or open my own business. Our bills are piling up also. Is there any help out there?

IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE FILTHY RICH PLEASE HELP ME!!

If you happen to be one of those lucky people on this earth that is able to buy excessively anything you want, travel aimlessly and have everything in life you ever wanted, please take a moment and think of me and my 2 children who currently have no place to live and barely anything to eat.  I am currently "staying" with a verbally abusive man who amazingly threatens to kick us out daily, because we had nowhere else to go.  I am a single parent of 2 , one child is disabled with Down's Syndrome.  Picture this.... Have you ever had to write checks to those check cashing places that give you your whole paycheck in advance but charge a $30 fee every 2 weeks? Well I currently have 3 of them out, to include everything I had of value in the pawn shop getting ready to lose it.  Have you had your house and car repossessed lately? Do you have a son who is a Senior who you could not buy a yearbook or class ring for or get his Senior Pictures made? Do you have an old dying dog who needs medical attention who you cannot even get his yearly shots? Have you ever lived on peanut butter, macaroni and cheese, chicken leg quarters and ground turkey meat? Do you have an abcessed tooth that you cannot even afford the copayment your insurance requires to get it fixed? Have you ever lived without utilities?  Have you ever had to write a check before payday hoping it wouldn't bounce, just so you'd have enough gas to get to work?  Or better yet, have you ever "tried" to file with Juvenile Court to receive child support "without an attorney?" If not, then you might need to try a reality better than the reality show "A Simple Life" because there are some of us out there who are not as fortunate. Any financial assistance would be greatly appreciated and I can guarantee you this is definately not fraud because I have every piece of information needed to back up my situation. As you can probably tell from my post I am very angry mostly at their fathers. I was not a whore making babies. I was actually married to these guys who contributed to bringing them into this planet. This picture by the way is a Walmart special for $4.95. Pretty good huh? Thanks......
