I am a work-from-home mom of three, including one child with special needs. Thanks to early diagnosis and lots and lots of therapy she is doing incredibly well, keeping up with her twin brother and giving big brother a run for his money. After dealing with insurance companies for her care and treatment I realized what a horrible healthcare crisis this country is in.  Now I work with Ameriplan, an alternative and/or supplement to traditional insurance. I help people save money on healthcare, and I also help people escape the rat race and work from home.

In the year 2000 the Raymond-Hawkinson family was established. We bound our relationship with the purchase of land and a home. In 2003 we sacrificed what we had to try to save the lives of our beloved pets who were cruelly poisoned in their own yard by illegal area hunters. We lost our car which resulted in the loss of a job, then electricity/water and eventually our home and land.

We do not regret our decision to try to save the lives of our pets.

We discovered what our family truly wanted when we had to move out of our new house and live on the 2 acres of land we had. We learned how to build tipi's, we learned how to cook over open fire, how to use dehydrated foods, rely on the sun to warm our tipi and to heat water for bathing. We had to lug our own water so we also learned a lot about water conversation and recycling. We had no septic system to use, we had to learn safe methods of waste treatment. Had the house and land not been tied up in the same mortgage we could have let the house go without batting an eye. We had found something far more stable...but the land went with the house.

That experience while so many see it as heartbreaking really wasn't. We found that we had more when we had less. Now that we have modern housing that must be powered up and hooked up to water/sewer and we rely on grocery stores and the gas to get there...we are paying far more and have far less than what we had while relying on the earth.

Our family goal is to make our income count. If we could only get a piece of land and build unconventional shelters, grow our own much healthier food and use what nature offers to us we could be doing better in life.

We wish to build our shelter to compliment the abilities of our disabled family members and not be forced into paying expensive rents for adapted rentals or have to live with my mom the rest of my days which would include paying to have her house adapted.

If you can help us get started...we can do the rest. All we need is a piece of land in an unrestricted area.

We accept donations through Microgiving.  Microgiving requires proof of identity, income and need so you can feel confident that our family has met the requirements for a real and honest request for assistance.  You can visit our profile and donate if you are able by visiting this link: Homeward Bound

I need help with finances. I have arthritis and lupus and am deaf and had to leave my job.I am a single mom supporting my daughter as well as my disabled mom and disabled sister and I get no child support. I have borrowed my friends and family to the max limits. I am behind on everything and desperately need money to pay my bills. Im 3 months behind on the house payment and have used every ounce of savings I had put away.  I have a paypal account (anoraonebay@yahoo.com ) donations can be sent to, anything will help and thanks in advance.

PS

I am in the process of trying to sell many items on ebay, so if you cant bring yourself to just make a donation, maybe I have something you want? Please check them out, every little dollar will help, heres the link http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZanora_wolfe

Also, if you make a donation and want to see the bill you helped pay, just let me know and I will gladly share that info with you.

Thank you so much for your consideration,

 

 

UPDATE: I was thinking last nite I needed to be proactive in my own life. I feel like things are just "dead in the water", so to speak. I contacted Voc Rehab, who got me my hearing aids, cuz they said they would help me learn ASL (American Sign Language) too and were supposed to let me know something "soon"...well its been months and months, so I contacted them via email (its Sunday) but have gone one step further and contacted my local community college and enrolled in the ASL training program and I have found I qualify for financial aid and can get my courses free just based on my lack of income, so thats good news. Not so good news is its mid-session now, the courses I need are not offered over summer and that means I have to wait until fall term to get this moving....soooo again, not one to be discouraged, I have emailed the director of the program and asked her if there is anyway I can come "sit in" on any classes or some way to get private instruction so that I can do this sooner...like yesterday. So I am encouraged about this one thing in my life....      I was also thinking that if I go back to school, I still have all these crazy insane amount of credit card bills, medical bills, loans, etc who are knocking down my door....and in fact trying to kick me out of my door, since the house payment is 3 months behind so I checked with welfare....UGH I dunno where all those rumors and myths about folks sitting around "getting rich" off welfare came from....it may happen somewhere, but it aint happening in Mississippi thats for dang sure. On the TANF program, a needy person gets $110 for the first person and then $36 for the 2nd person and $24 for each additional person after that. So for myself and my daughter, we'd get a whopping $146 a month to live on....Im  very very discouraged on this point, because I was hoping that I could go back to school and finish my degree (ASL interpreting) and that would allow me to get a good job. BUT while Im in school full time, I was thinking maybe TANF would be enough to just "get by" and keep the bill collectors at bay until I was able to pay them myself....so much for that plan. Now Im at a loss for my next step.  I have a partial plan for school, but it does not help me keep myself out of jail for defaulting on these loans and it does not keep my utilities on or the house from being reposessed....

Any ideas, help, suggestions, loans, donations, thoughts & prayers, anything is appreciated

my name is harriet key I'm a foster care parent and i presently live in a studio apartment and i would like to be able to provide a home for a sibling group of children that desperately need a home and family. In order for me to be able to provide them a stable life i need money to buy or rent a home or even if some one has a house they would donate to help my cause. The amount of money needed for a rental would be base on the rent times 3 that would be one months rent one months security, and one months brokers commission. If there is anyone that can help my cause or give me information that could help me i would greatly appreciate it very much.

I am a single mother of a 5 year old son, his father has never beenin his life and never wanted to see him.  He cannot be located to get nay child support or anything, I have tried and never gotten anything.  I do work and have worked for the same company for 5 years, I am a secratary for a school district, so I dont make alot of money.  I am able to pay my bills, and give us a place to live barely, sometimes the bills are late.  But my vehicle starts some days and some days it doesnt.  i dont have the money to buy food, thats where are main problems are, i buy food we dont get our bills paid for, then we dont have a place to live.  but the summer is here and the bills are going to get higher, where I cant even pay for them.  I cannot affor the gas to get back and fourth.  My son has to have batteries for his hearing aid, which I dont let him use all the time so I can save the batterys for when they are needed.  I just need help to back it all the way through the end of the month.  I did apply for foodstamps and they allowed me ten dollars so the last year I have gotten ten dollars and its used.  I just need help, i dont fit in the poor group because I do have a job, I just cant stretch the money to last the hole month.  My son dont usually get to eat much for breakfeast, but we try to stretch all the food.  I will only eat lunch most of the time.  So i can just feed him.  We are happy though, and I will get it done.  It would be nice if I had someone that could help.  I got into debt thats where all my problems started, because when I lived with his dad, I took care of his three children and he worked, but I had great credit, so I got a brand new truck in my name and whatever else we needed or thought we did.  Then our house burned down, and I used credit cards to buy the kids clothes and school supplies and christmas presents for everyone.  Then after the house burned down he quit working and wouldnt get a job, so I went and was sub teaching, wasnt making much.  Everything just got farther and farther behind.  I took a large loanout to pay everything off except truck and let it go back, and I just cant get caught up.
