I am a Law School Student up to my neck in loans and bills. This is all a bit much for me. I dont have this months or the next rent. I have so many bills and have been looking for another job since October. I just cannot find any relief. I come from a family with no way to help me financially, but their prayers are appreciated. Living in San Francisco it is no wonder people are homeless, the cost of living is sky high...and I am barely living. Between the stress of law school and wondering if my blls and rent will be met I feel beat. Can someone please help me?
asonda, hi happy h/days. .........baby girl, you don't need any ones help, listen real careful....you have all the help you need in you, the way you apply your thoughts and words and apply them to paper, you have the ability to be a very good writer. i read your bio and it runs along with mine although I'm a man i can relate very much with you, at your age your ability is just below your scalp....in other words all you need is to sit down one day and apply the things that's in you mind, you can even write nonfiction as well as friction, i know you have a lot to say and of your good days you cam combine all of those experiences and earn 20 times what you are earning now, just apply yourself then you will really have everything to smile about, so give it a try....fortyfive
My husband and I went through the same thing. We took nothing jobs just to bring some money in but then we found this and it truly is saving our family financially.
Just a suggestion have you tried your local churches? I think some churches give help to families in need of rent assistance. Check your local churches I will be praying for you.
I am a single parent to a 6 year old little girl. Her father and I have been seperated for over 3 years now and is completely out of our lives, which is somewhat of a good thing since he was nothing but drama when he was around. Anyhow, I recently became unemployed due to circumstances beyond my control; my daughter got a stomach virus and two days after I returned to work, I came down with a severe case of strept throat. In all, I was out of work a total of 2 weeks, during which the entrire time I kept in contact with my supervisor. When I was ready to return to work my supervisor advised me that due to my absence, she would need to speak to the owner of the company and that she would contact me as soon as she spoke to him. She left me hanging for approximately a week and a half until she finally gave me an answer!
With all that being said, I am now almost 2 months behind on my rent and my car note. I've been trying to get help through agencies where they have a lottery type drawing for rental assistance but still no luck. I'm also waiting to hear back from unemployment (the entire process takes a little over a month). I've had no luck finding a decent paying job, which I've never had a problem with before...It's really hard right now to keep my spirits high, but I am trying! I just need a little help...advice, assistance...anything at all. I'm so stressed out that I can't sleep at night, I have anxiety attacks and I'm just not the same at all.
My worst fear is losing everything, my car, my apartment and being homeless with my daughter...
You are an amazing person, and I am go glad that you were able to recover from that horrible past and start building a future for yourself. I work from home with a company that helps people save up to 80% on dental care. Most dentists will work with you on a payment plan so you can pay it off a little at a time.

so my husband and i sat down with my mother in law to try to figure out all the bills exactly. ok, our house bills total a whopping 1870. not including all the household things we need. food is another 400 or 500 a month. diapers and baby food is another 300. my husband being the ONLY one working in the house to take care of all 7 of us only makes 1200 a month. i'm not sure what to do. the state says we make too much money, (lol) so we cant get food stamps or any help. i am completely out of options!!! i'm at my witts end. now the doctors are saying that she also has osteoperosis on top of an ankle that they cant fix. so what do we do? we cant leave her here with the 3 kids. they dont really understand that christmas is not really possible this year.how do you explain to a 5 year old that santas NOT coming? and that we might not live in the house anymore! if anyone has an answer please let me know, please if anyone has a donation, or know anyone that can help let me know. my e-mail is : sk8sassychik@yahoo.com. donations can be made there too. we have applied for everything possible, but have been denied. my son is slowly becoming more sick, but we dont have insurance, and they wont accept us at the doctors. please if anyone knows of a way to help! we have exausted all of our options up to this point, but we still cant find a way to make is possible. PLEASE!
I am in need of some help.... I have payed half of my rent as well as some other bills but I have tried everything before I had to come here and beg. I am in need of desperate help, I will work it off or repay it back I am not looking for free ride. I am 23 year old female and work over 40 hours a week, I am trying my hardest and don't want to lose my apartment.
Hello I am 23 years old and looking for a bit of help. I usually don't do this but I really need help this time, I am ussually independent and hate asking for help. I work full time usually a little more, I am also looking for a second job which will help me conciderable, but until then I am looking out to anyone for some help.

My name is Jeffery and my wifes name is vivian. We have a 7 year old son that just started 2nd grade yesterday.
My wife and I have been married for 2 years and we have had struggles paying bills do to job lay offs and cut backs. Right now we have a debt of about $10,000 dollars and we need help! We are currently renting an apartment in florida in an assisted living community where there is not much assistance. We've look to buy our first home but due to credit issues every one we've gone to for help has turned us down. We are also in need of transportation and do to credit issues we can not even purchase a car.
All of this is very over whelming but our faith in God has allowed us to survive this far. So if there is someone reading this, more than a little help will be awsome, whether through prayer or monetary substance our family will be abundantly appreciative.
My girlfriend and I lost our jobs on the same day (completely different professions, just horrible coincidence) and now rent is due, and we dont have it. I would ask family or friends, but none of them are in a position to make a loan either. So I thought I would try my hand at the kindness of people over the internet. It's only $500, and both of us may have a new job very soon. We both have very promising prospects lined up, they just wont go through in time. If anyone can help we will be eternally grateful.

I was born Dec 28, 1982. My life started out bad and continued to get worse as the years pasted. As a young child, I lived with my mom, grandma, two sisters, and random guys my mom dated. My mom boyfriends could get a little rough and my mom just didn’t know how to take care of us. My sisters and I were taken away from her, when I was 4, for being malnourished and neglected and put into a foster home. All three of us were adopted about a month before I turned 5. I though my life would get better with my new parents but as the years progressed it got worse and worse. I suffered through physical abuse, (spanking me with hands, belts, even a board and getting slapped) and mental abuse. My parents often belittled me. They often told me I was nothing. I couldn’t keep friends because I was always in trouble. Even girls who lived on the same street as me stopped trying to be my friend, because they never go to see me. By the middle of my 3rd grade year I just stopped caring. With my parents belittling me and my classmates laughing at me and taunting me and without a friend for support, I just couldn’t take it anymore. I stopped doing my homework, I stopped paying attention, and I failed tests, and acted out. I probably had more detentions then anyone in the school and my school went K-9. The physical and mental abuse continued. I remember this one summer, I was 11 or 12, I had stolen something. I agree I should have been punished but not how my parents punished me. I was locked in my room with nothing but a desk and chair. I wasn’t even aloud to wear clothes. I sat day after day for almost the entire summer in my underwear writing over and over again “I will not steal”. At nights I slept on the floor. One night I begged for a blanket and was told to shut up. I was only aloud out of my room to use the bathroom and shower. Although I had to resort to peeing down the heater vent sometimes, and using a piece of paper and putting my poop outside on the window sill. When my parents realized I got into even more trouble. Another time I was being punished for something I hadn’t even done. As so often happens in all families the wrong siblings go blamed. I was told to sit in the middle of the hardwood floor and not to move. I sat there for a good 8 hours before they let me get up. Even simple things like trying to do my homework, when I did it, cause my parents’ anger. When I was learning fractions for the first time I was having troubles so I asked my mom for help. She got so upset trying to help me she slapped me causing my nose to bleed. When I started crying she ripped up my math homework. I turned it in the next day taped up. The abuse I got at school was awful also. Many days I’d come home crying because I just couldn’t take the insults and names. I got more and more depressed as the years went. The physical and mental abuse continued. When I was about 14 my mom slapped me and I slapped her back. The physical abuse lessened and stopped but the mental abuse got worse. I was told I was ugly, fat, stupid, would never amount to anything by both my parents and classmates. If was around this age I stopped caring about myself. I stopped brushing my teeth, showered only 2x a week, and wore wrinkled, dirty clothes. I figured how could everyone be wrong. At the age of 15 I found out that my dad had been spying on me, and sued to spy on my sisters (they had both moved out at this time). Our house was strange and all the doors had windows above them, even the bathroom door. I lived out the last few years of my life with my parents constantly hearing how worthless I was and in fear that my dads perversion would get worse. I hated even changing when he was home. I tried to take showers when he wasn’t. I had trouble falling asleep at night wondering if my dad was looking through the window in my room. Even to this day I feel weird around my dad because of this. When I reached the 10th grade I decided I didn’t want to turn out like my sisters. Both were single mothers who dated men who abused them physically and mentally. Don’t get me wrong I love my sisters to death but they were losers. (They have both turned their lives around recently) I started trying in school and kept out of trouble. I still suffered from depression and non-existent self-esteem but I managed to graduate in 2001. I started in Fall of 2001 at West Virginia University, my hometown university. I suffered my first year in college mostly due to depression. This one time I was on the bus heading to work after classes and the bus stopped where I work, I stayed on. I rode the bus around for hours passing my work a few times and then went and stayed in my dorm room for the next couple of weeks. After this serious spout of depression I decided enough was enough. My parents had already ruined my childhood/teen years. I wasn’t going to let the memories and fears and doubt ruin my future. I had to take control. Since I had made it to college, I knew I wasn’t stupid. A few great girls (Jessi and Michelle) on my dorm floor helped me realize that I was a person and my thoughts and feelings mattered. The long healing process had started. Once I obtained a little self worth it was up hill from there. It took months but when I was around 20 I started to care about myself again. I started brushing my teeth and hair, showing often, wearing clean clothes, all the things most people do anyways. My life and attitude have improved every day since. I have since left my hometown and am currently living with my boyfriend of 2 years. I am a little over weight, I am not drop dead gorgeous, I am cute though, and I have dealt with my past and overcome my depression. I love who I am 99%. The 1% I don’t love is my teeth, Due to years of neglect my teeth are in major need of repair. I work full time, sometimes overtime, as a Shift Manager at a major pizza company but only manage to survive. My boyfriend and I have talked about marriage but I want a pretty smile before I get married. I went for an estimate 3,000 dollars. 3,000 dollars doesn’t seem like to much money but when I only earn 9,000 a year tops it’s a huge amount. My rent/unities are 6,000 a year, leaving less then 250 for food and other things each month. Every month that passes even though I brush my teeth regularly now, they get worse and worse. This is he first time in my life I’ve had a reason to smile and I can’t because of my broken teeth. I want to love myself 100% Please help me.
Dear Asonda:
This will not cover the expense but might at least help reduce the costs. See the following link and check right hand side of page for dental programs/discounts. Http://www.themedicineprogram. com
Wishing you a lovely smile. :-)

Hi, I'm Jess, I'm 17 and i am 22 weeks pregnant. I had just quit my job about 2 weeks ago because i was on my feet a lot. I really need an at-home job to save money for my baby. I am very organised and have computer skills and would be willing to work for an online business or do write-ups or anything like that. If somebody has a job opening for me that would be awsome and I can send my resume when I am emailed. I'm a very hardworking and dedicated person.
Also, if you have any ideas or advice for me please email me. thanks!

Hello... My name is Corey. I am 25 years old, and have been fighting a severe case of crohn's disease for 4 years. I have had over 7 surgeries to correct damage done by the disease in the past 2 years, and because of these problams, have run out of time for medical leave at work. I currently cannot work due to anemia and another procedure in February and another major surgery scheduled for March. I have a house, car, and over $20,000 in debt, mostly medical... The bill collectors will not leave me alone. My husbands company fell apart because he needed to be with me during my surgeries and while he is currently working another job 6 days a week, he just cannot make what is necessary to keep us going... We just had one vehicle reposessed and it is all we can do to keep the other one. I am at a loss and fearing losing everything, including my life... I do not know what else to do, where else to turn. Any advice or assistance would be appreciated and 100% returned. My email in corey_lascurain01@yahoo.com. Thank you for your time to read this.
My name is Beth and I am 25 years old. I recently had to put my mother in a nursing home because of a terminal brain injury. I have been struggling for some time now trying to pay for medical care for her while still trying to support myself at the same time. My mother who took care of me as a single mother my whole life, is now in need of my help and I can't support her in return. It breaks my heart that I am too young and alone to have the means I need to see that the rest of her days here on this planet are not miserable. I myself am falling farther and farther behind on my own bills because I have devoted my resources to her care. I have never asked for much in my life. I just need to get back on my feet. Please help me! My life has already been torn apart by the tragedy of losing her vitality, financial burden is the last thing we need right now!
Help! I am desperate. I am a young mother of two young children. I just started a new job, but I have just recieved an eviction notice. Our rent monthly is $1295.00. They are not willing to help out, as this is the only time I have ever been late on rent. I am drowning. I have no debt, just trying to get on my feet after losing my last job. Please let me know if you can help at all. Thank you all for your time. May God bless you and your families.
I am ashamed to basically beg for money but I have been sick for a long time and I am about to be homeless. Being sick is awful and not having income doesn't make it easier. I have applied for disability but it is a long process and you have to be practically dead to get it off the bat. I have tried to work and I physically can't do it right now. I just got sicker and the doctors think I have lupus but for the time being I am not getting anywhere which means I am not getting better. I need all the help I can get and any kind of donation would make all of the difference in the world. i have a paypal account-ak221983@hotmail.com. I just don't know what else to do.
I am a single mother in Georgia, I have 3 kids and 1 on the way next month. Im so afraid to bring this baby in this world homeless. My kids are currently not in scholl bc of this! Sometimes I feel lik... see full post
