Scholarships are FREE

Scholarships are FREE

Most people going to college get one scholarship and then apply for a student loan to cover the rest of their educational expensis.   This is OK, but student loans have to be paid back.  They cannot be forgiven even with Bankruptcy.  The only way out of a student loan is by dying or becoming so disabled that you can not work.

But there is no need to get a student loan.  You can get as many scholarships as you want to pay for your schooling.  There is no limit on how many you can have.  And you can get grants to pay for all the rest.  All it takes is a little effort on your part to hunt down and apply for these scholarships and grants. 

Go to www.yourgrant.com/scholarship.htm and check it out.  With a little effort and study on your part, you could go to college FREE.

Automobile
I am a single parent of a 12-year old girl and a 19 year-old college student and am on permanent disability with Multiple Sclerosis.  I am able to drive, and my daughter is active in sports, etc.  I receive no child support from the father.  I have had a couple of used cars in the last couple years, one of which had to be junked after over $1,500 in repairs because it needed a new engine.  The car I purchased for $750.00 a couple months ago is also not working, after having put over $800 in repairs into it.  I have no money at all to begin to get the car going again.  I thought maybe there was a good samaritan out there who had a reliable older car they wouldn't mind donating so that I can get my daughter to her sporting events, to my doctors, the grocery store, etc.

I am a 50 year-old disabled mother of two; a daughter of 12 and a 19-year old son in college.  I do not and never have received child support from my ex-husband.  I have no living relatives that I am aware of, but me and my kids are living in our family home of 14 years - it is a struggle to keep up the payments and bills associated with homeownership, but we forgo the little "extras" so that we can stay here.  The kids have so little, and with them never seeing their dad I do not want their home taken away from them.

i got hurt on my job in 2003 i under went one surgery and have to under go two more and i  am waitng on  social security.

I am a hispanic, disabled, female.

Hello,

   I am A hispanic female, with lupus, fibromyalgia, sjorens, diabetes and neuropathy. To name a few of my complications. I use an electric chair, but, can't go out because I have no ramp. Nor can I use it for shopping because i have not the vehicle to transport myself and said chair around. I would like to own my home, so this way I can do whatever I want to the rooms to make the depression less. I tried to continue to work, but, since the lupus is greatly affected by stress and hinders my immune system, then I cannot suject myself to the stress of employment. I get fatigued very easily. And C.O.P.D. doesn't help.  I have to have assistance in doing menial tasks. My memory isn't great either. The lupus has affected my brain. I do have the tendency to go somewhere and forget where I was going. Also, as you can tell, my vision is attrosiuos. As is my spelling. I just want to live somewhere where it is nice and quiet, no gunshots to scare me, no neighbors to ruin my vehical, that respect others property. Somewhere I can actually feel safe to go outside and visit with my neighbors. Not worry that I'll offend them and have my belongings vandelized or stolen. A place to be safe, happy, with my dogs and cat.

Funding to establish carehome for individuals with disabilities

I want to open a carehome for persons with severe and profound disabilities.  I live in a very small community that has no such resource and desperatley needs this service.  The nearest care home in the state is over 90 miles away, which means most individuals that need this service must relocate away from their families.  I have over 10 years experience working with the disabled population and have a passion and determination to help people in this capacity. 

I need funding in the form of donations or grants to help purchase a house with 4+ bedrooms, 2+ baths.  This is assuming each bedroom will be shared between 2 clients, with 1 room for a live in staff.  I don't know where to start on this mission.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

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......

My husband is a veteran and has a muscle disease called Inclusion Body Myostitis, which means the muscles in his body are dying. There is nothing available to stop the progression. The only walk- in shower I have is down stairs in the basement and he can't walk the steps. The bath on the main floor has a bath tub but he can't get in it. I am in need of a walk in shower and a raised toilet. Are there any grants or fundng available to do the remodeling?

handicap van

  i am on disability ssi and can't afford to buy a van with a lift for my electtric chair need help desperately

I am a single mother with a permant disability and am looking for a loan in which to purchase a home.

I am a single mother and 41 years old.  I was recently diagnosed with perifphrial genetic Neuopathy.  I am in an electric wheelchair most of the time and am currently unable to work.  I don't have a vehicle, due to having to sell it to pay my bills.  My ex-husband foiled my plans of getting a home 5 years ago, and is currently trying to take my daughter away.  One of the reasons I would like to get a loan for a home, is to prove to my daughter that we are stable!  Something my ex-husband tells her because we live in an apartment.  I have always wanted a place of my own and I have now found the perfect place.  It is a two bedroom, one bath house all on ONE level!  It has a decent yard, not to big or too small and a great big garage!  It does have city water and sewer, as well as a 70 foot well.  It has LP gas with forced air hot and cold.  It comes with all the appliances that I would need, so I would not have to buy anything new.  I am meeting with resistance at evey corner since my disability hit in 2003.  I have lost most of my friends, my vehicle, my rented two-story townhome, and the worst of all is lossing my birth family.  They are all siding with my ex-husband to take my daughter away.  I know that a home will not fix the problems between my birth family and myself, however, it would sure help my daughter to fill grounded in the community that we both love.  It is a small town, filled with the people I had only read about in books.  We have more churches then bars, and there is only one main street, it is a place where you could leave your doors open at night, if you wanted.  Everyone looks out for their neighbor and we all pitch in where and when we are needed.  Both myself and my daughter love Holdingford, Minnesota and I humbly request your assistance in obtaining a loan to aquire a home in Holdingford.  They are asking 84,900 and I offered them 80,000.  It sounds like they are willing to take it, sadly, I have no money for the down payment even.  My mind is sharp and I very much want to give both my daughter and myself the security a permanent home would give us!  I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.  Thank you, in adavnce for your help regarding the matter of home financing for an American with a Disability.
