I've never asked for anything like this before. The fact is, I'm on my own and just have me to count on...and I just need a little help to keep going?..until I start getting paid from my second job. I think this is a great resource... I'm glad it's available. Thank you for your consideration...sallie

Greetings,

 

my name is Amanda Hopkins. I am a new single mother, and received an eviction/foreclosure notice, I own a trailer and it is in a trailer park so I have a monthly lot rent, I received a "failure to pay rent - park owners complaint for repossession of rented property real property" notice with a court date of 12/26 for Oct, Nov and Dec. I am not with the father of my child, and he additionally is unemployed so isn't able to financially help at this time. My son was born on 10/6/18 and on 10/31 we were admitted to Children's Hospital and spent 14 days in the hospital, after a surgery and several other testing we were able to go home, however I am not currently able to work because with the amount of follow ups and other procedures that will be taking place and cost of someone watching him. Additionally, I am behind on my SMECO and I know that soon I will be getting the termination notice from them as well. I am trying to utilize resources we have in Southern Maryland for those in need especially before becoming homeless, because I have asked all my family for assistance and they helped as much as they could however I am terrified that we will lose our home due to this. I have an appointment with Social Services to get additional assistance, but I wanted to reach out an try to utilize some of the programs that offer help in this type of situation. I look forward to hearing back from you on what the next steps are. I truly appreciate your time, and attention to this.

 

Happy Holidays,

I am a disabled service connected military veteran with 30+ years of service. I received a injury in Afghanistan in 2009 which forced me out of the service eventually in 2012. I am also a retired Law Enforcement officer with 20 years service. Because of my illnesses and my wife being laid off in 2017 things have been tough. I lost my furnace, my hot water, my woodstove, and my truck broke down all within a 7 day period. My doctor has told me my health will continue to fail if I do not stop working completely but due to my work missed and my wife layoff we have gotten behind to a almost irreversible situation.

In the last 6 years I have worked for the American Legion helping serve those that served us and was able to reach those veterans and their families in need. Now unfortunately I am the one in need and because I currently work for the Legion I cannot seek relief from them.

I read through some of these posts and my heart goes out to each and every one of you. I fought for this country not only to maintain our freedom, but help people like you from having to suffer the agony and pain you all endure. It makes my problems seem trivial in comparison, and regardless of my situation I wish you all the Merry Christmas and a better New Year.

I have submitted a request for my father, who has been diagnosed with Myeloid Leukemia.  

It is *my* wish that regardless of whether he is a wish recipient or not, that those who are truly in need have their wish granted.

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas.

Hello. My name is Megan, I'm a single mother of 2 boys. Ages- 12 and 10. We live in a VERY small town in Northern Maine. I am currently unemployed, looking for work though. However, where we live there isn't much for jobs, unless you want to drive a few hours one way in horrible winter weather conditions. This is my first Christmas without my mother as she passed away in March. My childrens father and I have been apart for 6 years now, He is a great dad, but he just went to jail about 8 days ago. He will be in there for 8 months. He is the only hope I had for getting some Christmas gifts for the boys and more food. I don't have much family left. I'm not sure if I'm too late on asking for help for Christmas. I hope I'm not. I would like to say I would be very thankful if I can get some help. If I do I will be sure to pay it forward and donate to a couple of charities and some local churches just as soon as I get back on my feet after the holidays. Thank you to whoever sees this and is able to help.

My name is Joy and I have come to a place in life I’ve never been before. Up until two years ago, I have been independent and self-supporting since I was 15 years old and I took great pride in that. I was raised by parents who deeply instilled it in me to always provide for myself and never ask anyone for anything. Asking for help is something I thought I would never need to do and makes asking for a hand-up now extremely difficult for me. I am ashamed that my life has come to the point where it has become necessary to do this.
The story of how I ended up in my current demise is long and full of numerous tragic events. Some were unforeseeable and some were due to stupid decisions I made. I found out the hard way that some people in my immediate family, whom I’ve always trusted, are not trustworthy at all. As a result, I was cheated out of my house, lost my car, and my possessions were stolen.
It has put me in a financial hardship I just can’t rebound from, no matter how hard I try. I’m trapped in a cycle I can’t break. I currently live in a run down, tiny motel room that rents by the week at an astronomical cost, yet it is the cheapest one around. It’s also the only one that is within walking distance to where I work, as there isn’t any public transportation here. Most of what I earn just goes to pay rent, which makes it nearly impossible for me to get out of here and get a place of my own, as I am unable to save up the large sum of money I need to to move into an apartment, like the 1st months rent and the security deposit, utility deposits, etc. I need a better paying job to do that-which means having a car to get there, which means another chunk of money, and on it goes. I’m not able to get a leg up.
Trying to rebuild my life from scratch, at age 53, has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. This is the first I have been totally alone, without a family or support system of any kind to turn to for emotional support and/or guidance. I live a very small, remote mountain town where I haven’t made any friends or established myself, which is mostly due to my dysfunctional shyness and low self esteem. My only companion is my 12 year old cat (don’t laugh) and I’m very thankful I have him. He is such a comfort to me, especially during the times I feel so overwhelmed and everything seems so hopeless. I just want the simple things I used to take for granted back, like a decent job and transportation to get there; a place of my own and the ability to pay my bills and be self sufficient. To be a blessing to people and not a burden.
Surprisingly, it really doesn’t bother me anymore not having all the material things I was accustomed to. I’m actually more content with the simpler things in life now. It’s losing the sentimental things and the way I was done that still bothers me.
Anything that anyone can assist me with would be so appreciated, especially your prayers. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
Sincerely,
Joy S.

Me and my family have fallen on serious hard times this past sumer and fall when both me my fiance were laid off work.We have been searching for help but havent had very much luck. Our gas has been shut off and our electricity is going to be shut off on the 17th.we both have started a new job but wont be paid for 3 to 4 weeks. I was able to get a hold on my account for 10 days which ends the 17th but after that i can apply for one more 10 day hold but that isn't guaranteed. We have a 6 year old daughter that lives in the home and two teenage boys who visit on the weekend and on breaks. I am begging for any kind of help Please!! I don't know what else to do. I just want my children to be ok. Thank you in advance and god bless.

Hello, My name is Ebony. My mother and I are going through financial hardship.We had to move out of our apartment a week ago because we were behind on the rent. My mother's job has been cutting her hours and financial emergencies keep occuring. We are currently living at an hotel that pays by the week. My mother does not  know how she is going to keep paying for this hotel. The next payment date is this Saturday, and we do not know where are we going to go or what we are going to do. I found this website , and I just pray that someone would be the light during this hard time in our life. The money would really help keep a roof over our head for another week.

I have been very guiilty in the past of burying my head in the sand when issues of charitable contributions or organizations were presented to me. Oh, I always gave what I could but I really never thought about what happiness or relief my contribution would bring. Sometimes you need to be reminded that there are far greater rewards than having the best car or house. I personally know now that when you give someone the reassurance that kindness is still alive and well and there is hope...it means more than you know. I know this personally now and I will never be aloof about helping anyway I can. My goal and reward now is to know the look of relief and happiness that my efforts will bring. Thank You and many more blessings to you.

Hello, I have never heard of this site before and I am curious to know if there are similar places providing assistance like this. I am thankful I found this today as I am in a tough situation trying to provide a nice holiday and winter boots for my 2 children.
I have never needed to ask for help before and i have not yet received anything but i wanted to say that this site is a wonderful resource for those in need.
Thank you to all the generous souls who choose to donate, you prove that there truly are beautiful souls still in existence. You have restored my faith in the loving hearts of humanity. Eventhough it is so cold here in buffalo, the kindness here warms my heart. It means much more than I can put into words. Thank you!

What can you say to a stranger that does a random act of kindness that drastically impacts another and their others lives that will touch them the way that they’ve touched you and yours!? I don’t know if it’s possible?
I can try by starting with wether it’s my family or another’s who is in greater need THANK YOU! I don’t know if you have done this because of your own struggles throughout your life, if you were raised in a charitable home and continue the gift of giving to those in need or heck let’s be real you need a tax write off SMH LOL THANK YOU because the fact of the matter is your truly helping people in need and you’ve taken the time or hired someone to smh lol to read and find to their best judgement someone/family who really needs it and there really aren’t enough words I at least can say from the current life experience of being a hard working mom of 3 amazing children that’s fallen on hard times that could ever truly touch you the way you have others! ❤️
Thank You & Happy Holidays to you and yours! 🥳

My name is Julie and I have three girls and one boy and I'm just living off of a $300 welfare check and with paying DP&L and diapers and everything else I had to go through Toys for Tots to hopefully help with my kids Christmas and trying to take $50 and split it between all for my kids and toys ain't cheap so it's really hard to do Christmas this year and really stressing and want to break down and cry and really figure out how we can get some help so hopefully something will come through our way and hopefully all the other people struggling out there will be praying and God bless and supposed to be magic always happens during Christmas so hopefully something happens thanks and God bless

I am a mother of 5 and I am also a grandma to 2 adorable 2 month old babies and one on the way in January. Within the last year I have been blessed to be able to have my kids back in my life again after years of them being kept away from me by their dad, my ex husband of 16 yrs. Their father was very violently abusive to me our entire marriage and my kids sadly were witnesses to it all. I tried leaving many times but fell for his sorry's and excuses and promises to change. I finally got out of  but only after him and his friend both beat me & threw me out on the street and kept my kids from me for the past 10 years. 
Within the past year my kids have all come to live with me again and we are working on repairing our relationships and making new ones with my grandbabies. I am asking if someone could please help me to be able to buy my kids and grandbabies each something for Christmas. I never like asking for help like this but I am not working due to my PTSD, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Lupus and Bipolar Disorder. I have tried applying for disability 3 times and been denied all 3 times and am in the process of appeal. I have no income, I get foodstamps and medicaid, I also am in a housing program thru Clark county social services because i was homeless for a couple years until sept 2016. If someone could please help me give my kids and grandbabies a good Christmas , I would so appreciate it more than you know. 
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. 
God Bless

I am a single mother of 2 boys 14&8, I work full time as a certified Peer Specialist however I was out of work for 3 months so my bills are all behind and I was just in an accident that totaled my vehicle about 2 weeks ago. Now with Christmas quickly approaching I could use some financial help towards bills, a car, or presents.

Hi my name is Lindsey Ensign.. I'm 37 years old I live in Odessa Texas right now I'm currently fixing to become homeless I have an RV but my rent is due and my fiance just went to jail and it's going to be there for a while it looks like. He was the breadwinner I am working on getting on Social Security 4 my traumatic brain injury and bipolar and PTSD disorder. I have seizures a lot and I'm trying to get insurance. I was just wanting to reach out and see if I could possibly get some help with my rent so I don't have to sleep on the streets. I think everything else will fall into place if that doesn't happen I'm terrified of that. Happy holidays everyone, hug your kids and your family you never know when life's going to get rough. God'sgot us though!!

Hello my name is Stephanie. I am the mother of two wonderful wonderful girls, ages 14 and 16. I am currently receiving temporary SSI/Disability from a car accident I was unfortunately in several years ago. Due to a recertification glitch that was medicaid & Medicare's fault... my check has been cut drastically short for tje last 3 months . Pretty much every dollar we have is planned out for the month and no room for error. I am behind on my rent and utilities and getting caught up is looking scarier by the day. The girls are older and do know the true meaning of Christmas but they are only young once. Seems like we are barely holding our heads above water. I know things could be worse, I don't know how I could handle much more. Prayers welcomed with thankful open hearts for my family and if getting any financial aid is possible that would be a blessing as well.

Hello all. I am seeking a netwish on behalf of my family. My father is physically disabled and receives a disability check every month for about $500. I struggle to help provide for them and know that with the holidays coming up things will be extra tight. I am working on finding some assistance for my father to be able to turn his electricity back on because it is very cold here in MA. My father needs all of the help he can get but will not ask, therefore I am doing it on his behalf. I know a small amount can go a long way when you are struggling. Thank you so much for you time and kind heartedness.

I have stage 3 breast cancer and asked for assistance with living expenses due to the fact that I am having to travel 50 miles one way for treatment 3 times a week and the added cost associated with treatment has taken away from money for bills. I appreciate just having the opportunity to request help and if I don't get it I am sure that someone else had a greater need. This is a wonderful thing you are doing to assist people. God bless
