Comments: Good evening, After struggling since 2016 loosing everything including my job and being breadwinner to take care of them and give them what I thought was the quality of life they needed; I find myself realizing why it had to happen and learning from everything to become a better person and know that it's quality but not necessarily quantity. However, now I do find myself struggling financially and unable to find consistant work to sustain a normal lifestyle. 2015 was the beginning of a horrible divorce and custody battle that lead me to extending my FMLA leave past the ADA time period allowed. My Doctor had recommended that I take some time from work and my short term disability that I had paid into for my company was not approved. (I found out too late though that it was due to the paper medical files being stored offsite at a place only open on tuesdays and thursdays from 9am-3pm. Through all of this I've tried to stay strong. I realize that over time and through the loss of friends for almost 20 or more years due to going through a tramatic scenario (for me and my family) that my friends said they did not know how to be my friend during that period. I've since made a couple of new friends, however am finding it hard to dig my way out of the financial quicksand that I seem to be stuck in at the moment. I've had a slightly abusive relationship since then that lasted for 3 and 1/2 years. I've been away from him for 2 months and have been kicked out of his home so many times that I keep going backwards financially and in my life and spending less time with my son due to my emotional instability that has finally kicked in. Although I do seek therapy with a psychiatrist, they do not take insurance and I'm unable to afford the visits each time and am terrified to change doctors because this one is the only one who has helped and given solid advice and supplemental meds when necessary. I've been couch surfing at friends homes that I do not feel comfortable staying long term. The man who I have been in the relationship with wants me to come back now, I only see the cycle happening again. I dont know how the situation will change. Each time within a month (usually 1-4 days) I end up kicked out of the home yet again and at this point I suppose for the first time in my life actually am accepting that I'm officially homeless. I have my MBA in Risk Management and BBA in Economics. I desparately want to work and have a stable living environment to live in on my own. And to be able to have my son over and a healthy environment. I don't know where to start at this time and I'm hoping that housing assistance could be available for a few months of rent to get back on my feet. I don't even have money saved for a security deposit or utilities at the moment so I'm starting here. Thank you for your consideration. Best regards, Susan
Comments: I have been holding my own since my husband passed away 2 years ago. Every month it gets harder and harder. Now January 2022 is here i cant afford my heart medicine because of the new year deductible has gone up. Either i pay my electric get my medicine or cut back on food so tired of choosing on which i get for the month pay bills, food, or medicine. GA has no LIHEAP funds left. Don't know where to turn i never ask for help i am just so tired. Ga decided to cut my SNAP benefits starting in January so things just got worse for me. Just need help to pay deductible to get my medicine. God Bless S.Y. GA
Comments: Hi my name is Nathalie I’m writing this in hopes to get financial help from net wish because I really need something anything I’m currently 8 and a half months pregnant and just got the chance to leave a really bad situation with my partner and I’m unemployed my feet are swollen and my body aches due to the weight of my babygirl so I cannot go back to work but I plan to as soon as I give birth which is really soon but the reason I need money is simply because I cannot afford anything for my baby I need anything I can possibly get because besides all the bills / debt I have I haven’t managed to get any money to buy atleast the car seat and or bassinet for my baby because I doubt I would afford a crib any time soon and a bassinet is the cheapest option and the car seat is completely necessary to bring the baby home with me. I was so excited and hopeful when I heard about this site because I have faith that maybe I’ll be chosen and even though I am just now writing this I felt like I’ve got to take a breath of fresh air because I truly have no support from family nor the father of my baby but I just want something anything for my baby. I know im fully motivated to work my butt off as soon as I possibly can because I want to be the best mother I can possibly be and provide any opportunity I can for her but right now unfortunately I physically cannot. Please please let me know if this is possible but if it is not I still greatly appreciate anyone taking the time to read this anyway. Thank you
Comments: Hi, my name is Lihong He. I am 36 years old. I moved to the U.S from China in 2017 for marriage. After eleven month abusive marriage, I separated from my ex husband, and got divorced in 2019.
In March 2019, I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, stage IV. in June, I had a major spine surgery for the bone fracture caused by cancer. I lost 20 pounds after the surgery. Since then I started chemotherapy, still active in treatment now. I also went through lots of radiation, on the brain, lumber, spine, pelvis, and I have left leg , hip pain from cancer. Sometimes I have to take morphine to control it. I lost my hair after brain radiation.
I used to work in a stem cell company, got unemployed in January, 2020 because of cancer. So far I am not able to work because of chemo schedule and physical mobility. I had a little bit of savings from my previous job to pay medical bills. Since I have no income now, I am short of money, that is why I started to look for financial aid. The hospital social worker shared your organization information with me to try. So I am writing this to ask for financial help with medical bills.
Going through cancer and chemo is not an easy journey, but I will fight to the end. Let me know if there is anything else needed to know my situation. Thanks!
Have a blessed day!
Comments: 2022 is just starting and just when I thought the cycle of pain and being without was over . Another wave of it all , comes and this time it hits harder. In the beginning of 2019 my life was just on the verge of perfect I had college, my boyfriend and his son and that was my true family . Even when the first wave of covid hit being on online school was not that difficult to me as most. I had my own routine of taking care of a two year old in a 2 bedroom apartment and doing my online classes all morning. We’’d both wake up I’d turn on my first class slightly pay attention and make us breakfast . Then my classes would continue . I would cut on his classes I gave him learning the name of body parts and indoor items. He was so smart I had to teach him more just like I was learning. My boyfriend worked in the early mornings at this time so we had the house to our selves. Just me and him , and sometimes I would get stressed out keeping up with both other times it was the best days of my life. Even when my boyfriend came home I would have cooked and cleaned and had something for us all to do to enjoy the night. he made enough for me not to work and just focus on school. With some of my parents money coming every at least once a month to help out…. then the second wave of covid hit he lost his job due to the factory not producing enough demand as they had workers they cut his hours and eventually laid him off. We still made it by for a few months he worked multiple jobs and I even cut half of our expenses and it still wasn’t enough. We lost his son 2 days before his birthday and that’s when everything changed for us. Working and me going to school had us so depressed life just stopped motivating us .. we checked out and wanted to just be free of that apartment of our bills everything… 2021 came and we were fine throughout the beginning of the months February came and jobs were not paying or hardly giving any hours . So he became self employed , doing tattoos with his dad, which is something I thought was the right thing to do with summer approaching us . It made him happy. I was still in school at this time just trying to finish strong with an A in social work that’s all I cared about, to make my mom proud. I was in school for interior design as well but with money being low we lost our car and I walked to my university on the day of my final in the rain! and missed it by a few minutes and he wouldn’t let me in. Receiving a 0 on the test I didn’t take... I even lied to my boyfriend about it and said he just rescheduled ,when I came out the building so fast making me pass the class with a C at the end of the semester. The summer of 2022 came and the beginning was a disaster me changing my living situations just to live with my boyfriend full time. We had just shifted of lives to find out I was pregnant a few days later and even though I thought I was so upset to be pregnant this early in my life. Everyone thought of the miracle it was to have another child around to make us happy again. I quickly told my mom and she just wasn’t happy. I cried my self to sleep almost all the time just because I lost my only friend (my mom) over something that could have made us all a big happy family again. Even though Marquise wasn’t my child and just my boyfriends child it hurt me just as much as him to lose him. My mom didn’t get that. She took me a away for a week to go look at houses so we change our scenery and move to North Carolina. I didn’t hesitate to leave with her because she was my mom and my baby deserved a happy and new life away from our apartment. That week was helll on earth what I thought was going to best parts of my life again just me and my mom bonding on a road trip , was just constant yelling on why I was pregnant too soon. Just endless arguing and arguments . We did occasionally get along but just not long enough for the stress to get to me and I eventually miscarry the last night of our trip. It was raining that night and I felt everything wrong inside me my mom wasn’t listening to me and I’m screaming at her really stressing my self out. The hospital is too far to get too . My emotions were so high. I felt the blood dripping out of me. We get to the hospital after an 1 hr detour around this small stupid city . Just for them to tell me I’m fine when I clearly wasn’t I had blood in my urine and they wanted to tell me it was normal. I was normal. When I know I wasn’t. They cleared me and dropped the bomb on me that they were twins. You know how happy I was to hear not one but two souls in me . Twins something I’ve always wanted . My boyfriend always wanted . Twins! Just for me to go to a hotel and all that pain catch up to me again and miscarry both of them on a hotel bathroom floor… June 12,2022. was the worst day of my life. Fast forward when I came back from this trip and finally recovered from this. our apartment did not want to renew our lease for August so we had to move out two days after my boyfriends birthday August 27th , 2021 our eviction August 30th 2021. We stayed until his birthday even had the best party at that apartment for him and had all his family and friends come . Just to pack it all up by ourselves the next day. Even just before his birthday he got pulled over by a cop who wanted to harass us in a part of town we didn’t even live in. That cop costs us so much even today. Fast forward we lived with his mom for awhile . Fast forward we found a new place to stay where we currently live . At a bar upstairs apartment on south ave , $400 rent. I worked at Arby’s just to make rent and my checks were so short with no hours at that job. I couldn’t go back to school until I paid off my tuition and usually my grants would help me pay the bill off but lately that $2,000 is just so hard to save up for and goes up the longer I take to pay it. Fast forward, October 25th , 2021 I get pregnant on our anniversary because depression is real and life seems so meaningless. Fast forward December 16,2021 my boyfriend is on his way to work and gets pulled over my a white cop trying to make a quota and say that he never payed a ticked that was on august 26th 2021 but he did a few days before my birthday September 9th 2021 because we gave our lasts to that ticket and after we cried a little. Cause we were flat broke after. He had the receipt as well but because he was racially profiled they didn’t want to make the proper calls on why it didn’t update in the system. ( they didn’t believe him) . So they took our car away. No car no way to work .. no way to work . no money. No way to pay off the ticket. Me lose my job because I’m unreliable and can’t be depended on because of no way to work. Him constantly finding ways to work asking and begging. No car no money. no car payment. January 9th ,2022 they take our car . after we finally pay off all the money to get the car back from the police January 7th 2022 . Anyways how is your 2022 going ? Is yours going just as good as mine ? I hope it’s going better than mine .
Comments: Hi its amazing how many places like utilities, cable and banks dont try and work with you when you have a temporary set back. Im a single Mom with a little boy. I bought a house prior to Covid and all things were wonderful. But then lost that job because the owner died and closed the business. I was able to go on a forrbarance to avoid forclosure but that expired a few months ago. Although I was lucky to find a job I do not get benefits or sick paid time as a temp employee. Well I got covid even after being vaccinated and missed 2 weeks plus all the unpaid holidays. Now I am 1,000 short and my house might go into forclosure. My utilities company hasnt been very kind and sent me a notice of shut off. I have money coming in.... its just NOT enough. I am so scared and so sick to my stomach. No matter how hard you try to bounce back another wave comes crashing down. I found this website and hoping to get some help and believe me when I get back on my feet again I will pay it forward.
Comments: I have applied for a Netwish and pray that I receive help. Even if I don't I want to thank your organization. You are a blessing to people in need. May God bless you to continue helping and healing. Thank you Antrice
Comments: I hit a bump along the way I'm unemployed and a my rent and bills fee piling up quickly. I need rental assistance one time. I'm seeking employment. My landlords is harrassing and it's embarrassing. Thank you
Comments: I’m a 40 yr old Father of 2 Boys and 2 Teenage Daughters. And I swear I’ve done everything possible to make their Christmas the best ever. Now the after affects of that happening became me putting myself very low financially for a few weeks. These Teens that are in this world today cannot live without their phones and social media.😂…So in other words I could use some help financially and also I could use a friend ☺️
Comments: Hello and thank you reading. This year I lost my mother, my sister, and grandmother to COVID-19. All were vaccinated and it came as a complete shock. To make matters worse, I lost my job because those wonderful irreplaceable women were my childcare providers. If one wasn’t available surely the other was. I’m a single mom and had the windows of my only car broken out by a random criminal yesterday and I’m at my lowest point i can imagine. I’ll never be able to afford to replace the windshield and windows and with it being winter time I will be walking my child to school unless we can find a ride in our rural town. I’m reaching out because I’m just broken and lost and have no hope that I can heal emotionally, financially or spiritually.
Comments: I cannot wait to be in a financial position to help someone like this someday. May God place many blessing on those of you that give🖤
Comments: I am a single mom struggling to pay my utilities I have 4 kids, I am currently searching for work that can work with my children's schedules. I have no income at the moment. My bank account is negative 1000.00 due to paying my mortgage to keep a roof over the kids heads. My electric is on shut off as well as my water an gas. Please any/all information will be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much.
Comments: i lost my dad the head of our houshold, an i'm strugling on some bills.
Comments: I hate to ask for help. But I just had breast cancer surgery and could use a little help paying these bills. I’m already working 60 hours a week between this and the economy its sinking me. It would be truly appropriated. I try to pay it forward when I can. Thanks in advance.
Comments: Trying to get school supplies for my two sons
Comments: Hello everyone.
Comments: I need help with bills I don't have income
Comments: In need of better luck. I can't seem to catch a break.
Comments: Hello I am currently going through chemo therapy for breast cancer. I have lost all my hair and can not afford a decent wig or even head coverings, I need help. All I can do is cry every time I look at myself in the mirror. I don't see me anymore. I had long hair down to the middle of my back and feel embarrassed to go out with out any hair, so I have just locked myself away hiding from the world as I continue to fight this disease alone.
Comments: I'm 77 and lost my whole family in 2020 I'm struggling everyday i don't have enough to pay my rent or utilities I'm alone and scared but I've never lost my faith i just need little help God Bless
Comments: I, like almost everyone else here, googled help with financial problems and ended up here. I am a single mom and have been working my butt to the bone to make sure my kids are happy. 5 years ago we were homeless, 2 years ago we were in a roach ridden apartment but today we are in our in such a good place. I have been able to pay my rent and bills no problem. This is the first time in a long time I have needed help with money but I after Christmas and my car breaking down this month, I have fallen short. My full rent is $1295 and I am $300 short. If anyone could help me with anything, I would greatly appreciate it. ANYTHING helps.
Comments: Hi, I was on maternity leave until last week. I had fmla pay which it was about 60% of my pay and I had some saving to cover the rest. but I was asked by my landlord to move by the end of the month so I had to use all of my saving $4,500 to pay for my security, first, and last for the new apartment. Also my car broke (Which I need for work) which I need 600 more to fix. I am currently two month behind rent with my current landlord. He has been great at understanding, but he did expressed that I needed to pay him the rent that owe before I move or he will take me to court. I move January 1st. I don't know what to do at this point. So I ended my maternity leave early, but I am still 2,600 short to pay my current landlord and my car. Im spending money on taxi when I cant find a ride at work to go to clients house.

Comments: Seeing more of this website I think that this is real. I have come across many scam websites now I'm not sure how to find any real help anywhere. My name is Nici, I'm 23 and right now I am unemployed but I'm actively looking for work everyday. I haven't received any offer yet but I am hopeful! I am $800 behind on my gas bill and I'm not sure what to do because this debt is damaging my credit score which is making getting any kind of loan or help impossible. Jobs that have reached out to me are too far and I also cannot afford transportation. If you could help in any way at all I would be greatly appreciative but even if not I still appreciate that you have done things like this to help others. It's really amazing
Comments: Hello, my name is Lauryn. I found this website that helps people in need of financial help, so I decided to give it a try. First off, I am 21 and I am currently in nursing school. My financial aid has not given me enough to pay for rent that is $800 that I have for January, therefore any amount given would be appreciated. My mother passed away last year from cancer, and since then expenses have been really tight. The most important thing for me is that you guys could pray for a financial breakthrough. Thank you for listening!
Comments: Hy...i need a help to move out from toxic household. I am applying for Jobs but no lick yet. Its not abusive but its mentaly draining and I cant keep up with it anymore.I know a lot of People here have more serious problem and its uneasy for me to even ask for it.....Marry Christmas.💜
Comments: I came online tonight not really knowing how or where to reach out, and found this link when seeing the words Netwish Giving Hope. Two months ago our family's lives changed shockingly when my younger 39 yr old sister was diagnosed with stage IVB cervical cancer. When the oncologist told my sister the cancer spread to her liver, kidney, and spine and was not operable and said her prognosis was she may only have a year to live it was devastating. But then only one month ago the same doctors told her there was no hope for treatment, changed her prognosis to only 3 months to live, and discharged her to hospice in my home. Seeing my independent, stubborn, free-spirited sister cry like a hopeless child and talking about how this is her last Christmas with us crushed my soul. I am disabled myself with physical limitations and only receive $744 a month from SSDI... but how could I not let her come here for her last days with us? We have lost 12 family members who have died in the last 10 years, including my son in an accident right after his 18th birthday. Now all that is left of our loud, close-nit, and vibrant family is me and my two "kid" sisters, and their 3 girls. Our other sister is a single mother who lives about an hour from us and works long hours. We are all just scraping to get by, and between the grief and financial devastation of recent years it is hard to hold onto any hope and faith. Even if I don't know how we will all get through this, there is no one left to help. We have a roommate with health issues who is 65 and was recently terminated when Walmart made his job obsolete. My husband who is 51 and has a very demanding physical job at a warehouse is the only one of the 4 of us living in our home who is employed. I see him so tired each day, hiding his arthritis pain, and he never even hesitated when I asked if he could support not only me but my sister who has no savings or assets when we are already stretched too thin. Who do I wish for? My dying sister? My sister who does not have a tree for her girls this year? My niece who is having to now face the reality of losing her mother when she is already estranged from her father? The needs are too much, the weight of feeling inadequate and helpless in the face of their pain too much. $200 will not solve any of these unsolvable things. These things that I cannot change. But, if I were to receive a netwish grant, I would want to use it to give my husband a small bit of relief on the burden of being husband, brother, father, and provider to us all by putting it toward the lot rent for our mobile home. Without his sacrifices, we would all be homeless and the extra expenses have left us with bills we have to leave unpaid and a car we cannot repair. Even if we don't receive help, it gives me a spark of hope seeing that something like netwish exists, and reading through the stories posted here made me feel less alone on this sleepless night. Thank you for making this space to even just acknowledge these things "out loud." For those of you who took time to read this, thank you, and please don't ever let go of hope.
Comments: Me and my 3 children were blessed with finding a home for the holidays but we need help coming up with our security deposit to move in. I have $2000 but need $720 more. I need this pretty soon as the owner may not be willing to hold the place for me until my next pay date. Thank you to everyone in advance and blessings to you all❤️ Happy Holidays!
Comments: Please 🙏 Help if Possible https://gofund.me/db280a7a
Comments: I separated from my husband last year due to domestic violence. I became extremely depressed and was diagnosed with depression, mood disorder, and anxiety, as well as an uncurable kidney disease. He took the house so I stay with friends right now and have ruined my credit having to use credit cards. I have a 3 kids, one which is special needs. It has been a rough year to say the least. Praying things start looking up soon. I would greatly appreciate any help. Thank you so much for this opportunity.
Comments: I have submitted a wish for my son's small family on Netwish, and I wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to all the Christmas Angels helping Netwish make Christmas Magic happen!

Comments: Happy holidays everyone and sorry that anyone is experiencing hardship at this time. It can be very depressing and emotional with Christmas coming around. I lost my job in October 2021 and now working minimum wage which I just started in December. It has been hectic the past few months to try and cover all my bills. It gets harder when you are behind on bills or can’t simply afford a Christmas gift for your kids or family. I really wish everyone the best through this holiday season and Keep your heads up. Thank you Netwish even if I don’t recieve anything it’s worth a try.

Comments: This sounds like such a generous gift to the public from someone who does not want to be known or recieve anything in return. This person must be an angel and is doing such a selfless act of kindness. I hope your website does all you want it to and more. Whomever you are you will be always in my thoughts and prayers.
Comments: Is anyone out there? I am the only parent and a single parent. This year has been the hardest for me! I have no presents for my child for christmas and usually love christmas! I am just so depressed this year! Please can anyone help? I would greatly appreciate you! Bless you!
Comments: Is it possible for a young single father who works very hard to seek help without feeling so ashamed? If I don't get a vehicle soon my life will completely crumble.

Comments: i am on disability and draw ssi. i have 4 children and along with my bills and caring for them i can barely make it. i dont have enough to pay the bills and buy any clothes for any of us. i go to good will and i can't even afford the clothes in the bins. i can only afford to pay the past due amounts on our bills and stay in disconnect status every month with my utility bill. i literally am facing a disconnect today with piedmont electric in hillsborough nc. my account number is 1171319. its under my husbands name we are separated. my bank account is in overdraft every month. i was just trying to figure out how to make it again this month (its christmas and i refuse to spend every last dime i have on bills) and i found the information for this website and i was grateful. i don't know who you are but if you are willing to help my family i am forever thankful. God bless you!
Comments: I left a netwish for you guys and I just want to thank you for this. God put people like you on this earth for a reason. I am just so grateful for it even if I am not able to receive one I pray for the next individual who is in need so they can receive this blessing. God Bless this foundation
Comments: This is so difficult for me. For decades I have helped others find the organizations to help them Now I need help. I have read about Netwish and I will ask for any help. My need started with my giving me the initial papers for divorce. We knew each other for 23 years, married for 19 years. We decided to become treatment foster parents 15 years ago. During those years we made the commitment to our three sons. Our two oldest have special needs. Are youngest seems like a normal young boy. All the financial problems started like around January. She filed for divorce October 2020 and moved out 3 months later. Thanksgiving was hard and Christmas will be harder. I don't have anything to get anything for my sons. The real reason that I am writing is that I am 4 months behind in my mortgage, soon to be 5. I know, I know that the Organization may not be able to help with this. However perhaps you could send this to someplace that could. If you could help me with a little to get my sons something for Christmas I would be ever grateful. I get energy assistance and go to different food pantries every couple of weeks. It's just my mortgage. I have tried finding a State or County mortgage help program. I have yet to find one. There are many agencies that help renters. Well that is part of our story. I have my two wonderful sons to care for and teach and I am thankful to the Maker for this.
Comments: Hello,My name is Catherine Leake and me and my disabled husband is in desperate help with household items like Toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, bath soap, I'm the only one who is working full time and my husband can't work and unfortunately all my money goes to rent and I can't afford anything else I know this is such a small request but it's big to me which will be so much off my shoulders to get help with this. I appreciate what you do to help people in need I pray that you can help me and my husband with my need. Thank you
Comments: After reading some of these comments I wish I was able to help some people in a way that they deserve but sadly this year has been one of my hardest years to hit I am a single mother looking for work as my husband was who brought home the money as I stayed at home with our 3 daughters aging 9,8,6 but he had recently passed away on us an from that moment on I been struggling to keep a roof over my girls head let alone bills and food in their stomaches, it kills me that I won’t be able to have a Christmas for them due to not having luck for work let alone money for them, but after reading these comments once I do get on my feet I will be sure to do my best an help anyone in need as I use to prior to falling on hard times this year. God bless you all an may god gift u all with something u truly deserve.
Comments: As I'm sitting here thinking about my own situation I can't seem to hold back the tears that are running down my face, reading the request and everyone's stories I wish I myself was in a better place to help everyone in need like the amazing gentleman whom created this organization. I've never been one to speak up for myself and ask for help but I have to put my pride aside and learn that its okay to ask for help every now and then. In 2017 I was diagnosed with a rare brain disease called Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension which causes me to have to much spinal fluid buildup that puts pressure on my brain and my optic nerve, my brain thinks that I have a tumor but I don't actually have one. It causes me to excruciating migraines and I've went through a numerous amount of spinal taps to monitor the pressure and remove some fluid so I don't end up blind,since the medication isn't working,nor is weight loss.It's gotten to the point of no relief that I can't enjoy the sun light or bright lights for that matter because of how sensitive I am to it. It's truly no way to live. After 4 years of treatment my Neurosurgeon has decided that it's time to have a shunt placed in my brain to help drain the fluid to my stomach,but good ole COVID postponed that for me. Little did I know that my life was about to be flipped upsidedown, on June 29th 2020 I lost my job and my life that I was just beginning to establish on my own as a single mother of 2 for the first time ever, at 28 yrs old. I thought I had Covid but turns out that all my breathing issues came from black mold, I begged my landlord to fix it and he refused, I didn't know what to do so I started asking anyone for guidance, I started studying the state statutes and laws regarding Landlord Tenant issues,but nothing I did helped, since I lost my job and I wasn't able to afford rent my landlord filed for an eviction, the only thing that helped me keep a roof over my families head was the moratorium as my apartment and my health crumbled before my eyes, my migraines got even worse I started having unexplained electrical shocks throughout my body. All these werid and random symptoms began to happen my speech started to dissiapte, I have decreased assimilation of new knowledge I have difficulty finding the proper words when I'm speaking and so much more, come to find out that I have a disease called Chronic inflammatory response syndrome caused by the mold toxins in my body, life is just not the same anymore. Code enforcement gave my landlord one month to fix my apartment after almost a year of me begging for assistance but that's when the moratorium was lifted and my landlord was able to kick me out, now we have nothing and I'm trying to get on Disability so I can continue to provide for my kids, we have been living in a tent for 3 months now and I'm trying to get back home so my sister can help me as I have no family here and no organization seems to actually want to help a family in need. Anything helps and I will pay it forward when I'm blessed with anything that could possibly help another invididual or family in anyway possible. I appreciate you taking the time to read my story and again I am so thankful for the man who created this organization, it people like him and those whom donate make the world a better place and gives me hope that theirs still some humanity left in this world.
Comments: I recently became unemployed last month and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to interview for two positions this past week. My cellphone service was interrupted about an hour ago due to overdue bill. The urgency of having phone service restored during a time such as this (interviewing for a new job) is one I am sure goes without saying. My phone bill is exactly $35 a month and I would love to have assistance in paying this bill for at least two months. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration of my request.
Comments: Hello. My husband and I are both disabled. We both worked for many years but have become unable to work as we get older. We are having trouble paying our heating bill. Everything has gone up except our very small income. A little help would go a LONG way. |
