 In Jan. I lost my job working with Live Nation Motor sports. At that time I was bringing in an income of  $850 per week. Then my wife became ill so we both came home, but when I tried to go back to work I found that I was no longer employed. Then on the 7th of  Feb. I had a nervous breakdown witch led to 4 1/2 days in a mental hospital and I came home to no one, but my daughter. My wife, my niece, and my nephew had left here with the incomes they were bringing in. I now have a job, I found by luck yesterday the 25 of  Feb. but at this time I am unaware of when I will be receiving my first check. My niece came back on Wednesday Feb. 21st but the income she has is promised to her grandfather. Before my niece left I used her income to keep us in our house, as of now we do not have that income so I haven't a way to pay my rent ($950 per month). We appreciate your time and could really use any help. I have spoke with many churches trying to get any help I can.If anyone wants my number or address just send me a message and i will get back to you with it just email my daughter at purplefreak20002005@yahoo.com. If anyone wants any type of proof of what I am saying I do have medical records that show everything that has happened from then to present date................GOD BLESS!

My baby is due February 11, 2008. I am on Medicaid and they do not cover circumsicions. I have no way of paying for it myself it was all I could do to keep the electricity on and pay the rent this month. It is very important to me that this procedure is performed early for my son. If anyone knows of any way I can get assistance please help. He is my miracle, I miscarried 10 years ago and was told I could not have children. My prayers were answered and I want to do everything that is best for him. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you in advance for any advice or information you might be able to give.
Comment: Hello i am from Louisiana,...
Note: This aidpage was started as a comment on "Home page of bdugas"

Hello i am from Louisiana, we lost everything we had in Hurricane katrina, but the sad part was that was the second time in a year. See in 2004 Hurricane Ivan pasted so close to the mouth of the river in lower Plaquemines Parish (located about 70 miles south of New Orleans) that it spun tornados off of the storm, one touched down onto my mobile home and competely ripped the roof off, that let the rain in for 2 days and then when the sun came out it mildewed everything that the water did not destory. We was paid a small sum from FEMA for our loses and we took that and bought new furniture and clothes and all that was needed and set up housekeeping in an apartment across the street. It was 11 months later that katrina hit. The apartment we lived in, we never found the first board from it. My husband stayed for the storm with a friend and they was trapped on the roof hanging on through the entire storm, his friend died. We have been relocated to Ohio where my family is, but we can't make it up here, we live on a fixed income of $700. a month and my electric bills this winter have run $300+, we want to go home but there is no money to go on. And no place to live because of them jacking the prices up so high for rent. So we thought we would relocate to a town called Breaux Bridge which is where hubby's family went to. But how do you go and find a place with nothing to go on. The bills have to be paid here in Ohio first and that leaves nothing for us for gas or to move on. My husband who is also disabled from his job in the oil field has never been out of Louisiana and he is so depressed. We set in this apartment after the first of the month when we go out and pay the bills and buy some groceries all month till the next month rolls around,, some times I think I will go out of my mind. We want to go home and we need help, we got a little bit around $10,000 for our loses in the apartment, we can't afford insurance, but we had to buy furniture and clothes and live on that up here. Is there any one that can help us, or anyway that we can get home. I can prove who I am and that we was a part of the Katrina Hurricane. I have the FEMA and SBA paper work and ID. Some one please give me some ideas as to how to make this work. We are so behind up here we won't ever get out.

                                                              To whom this may concern, I'm a divorced mother of three children one mentally challenged, Sense my divorce i have not been able to get ahead. I've been a single mother for almost eight years. I only have a two year college education, I could only dream of going back and finishing one day. I work two jobs in retail one fulltime and one part-time and i have no time to go back to school and very little time left to spend with my children. I receive very little child support, and after i pay all the bills every month, i barely have enough money left for food or anything. Six years ago i was diagnose with cervical cancer, and i was treated with both radiation and chemotherapy, so i didn't go back to work for about five months. Sense then i've been trying to make ends meet, and that's very hard. I'm a christian woman and i strongly believe that God won't allow me to go throug this much longer.I ask if you would be so kind as to please help my family with a wal-mart gift certificate for grocery this month, we would forever be grateful. Thank you for reading my letter, and may God bless you and your family.  My Post Office Box is           P.O.Box 66093  Baton Rouge LA. 70896-66093

Hi, I am Angel, a Katrina surviver.

 

I am recovering from multiple infections because of the water, and also a broken backand knees. I have lupus so I live on @$546 monthly.

It is too much for foodstamps here and there are no workers who come to homes. I am not having a christmas at all but with the Lord.

I need prayers and hope. I have recovered from 3, yes THREE terminal illnesses over the last 15 years! I am blessed in that, but it is hard again.

I need some hope. I need to feel useful. All my friends were either killed or relocated from here and I cannot get out. I am on disability in housing where I know noone. I have been out of food for weeks at a time, there has been a shortage down here since the hurricane was over. I just completed my 239th hospital stay.

I am a miracle. But it is very hard to be alone, even with god and all through all of this.

Just pray for me! Angel of Hurricane Katrina

That is the only picture I have of me. I was pretty ill, but cleaned up good! I am struggling now.....

I know I am not the only one! God bless all of you!

I am 36 years old and have found myself in quite a mess.  My husband and I own and operate a small business in the town that we live in.  We have done well, but due to some errors that I have made while being away from the office caring for my Grandmother with Alzheimer's  we are in need of help to get our finances reorganized. 

We are believers in God and know that he will get us through this time in our life.  I feel he lead me to this site for help and where I one day can help someone in the same situation I am in now.  If you are unable to help financially a prayer would be much appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and may God Bless you and your family.

dental work
  I am a 34 year old mother of two and am in a bind. After years of struggling with anorexia and bulimia, my teeth have shattered. I don't have any dental insurance and can't afford the surgery to remove the pieces left in my gums. I  hope to be able to save 4-5 teeth on the bottom. I will need a full top plate and a partial for the bottom. Now that my eating disorder is under control, I look awful. I would love to be able to take pictures with my kids and for them to be proud of me. I can't eat much healthy food, like salads or fresh veggies, because i can't chew them. Please help if you can.

We have absolutely no furniture,in any room ,including beds. We are sleeping on hardwood floors with one blanket each,with exception to our 18 month old daughter who is in a porta-crib. We need dishes,cooking utensils,cups,towels,blankets,furniture,and anything that could make our apartment more comfortable. We welcomeand appreciate any offers. Thank you .The Ross Family.

Life after Katrina/We really need help........

Hello to anyone who read my post. I am 35 year old single mother of  two girls ages 18 and 14. I lost everything due to hurricaineKatrina and because of a injury I had before Katrina I have not been able to work. My oldest daugther has just started college  because of  a delay in her Federal Aid I have been paying for some of her books and transportation. I do not have a lot of money because  I am on disability.Once I pay my rent there is barely enough for food and other bills.I know some people think  after two years we would be on our feet.But after losing 17 years of your life it not easy.And after not getting anything from the government it is really hard.I have been trying to do  a lot on my own but with my health being the way it is it has not been especialy with nerve damage and tremors in one arm.You just don't know how hard it is to have to ask someone for help when you have been doing it so long by yourself. I was doing okay when I was getting child support  but the father has stopped.I applied for food stamps and was told that they still consider child support for six months as a part of my income. So all get is 76 dollars.I am asking for  help from anyone who is able to give. If no one is able I am thankful someone is able to listen and again thanks for taking the time to listen.

Send Me To College Please!
Hi,

I'm going to be graduating May 26, 2007 and I was requesting help to anyone who would like to sponser me in paying for my college tuition. I plan to attend Remington College for Medical Assistant, or University of Louisiana at Lafayette for Nursing but due to the outstanding amount the course cost not even financial aid would cover the cost of my tuition. I've always desired to be something in life, and I'm seeking to get there somehow. This is not a scam, I'm being very honest and open. The only reason I'm requesting help is because I can't afford to pay for college neither can my family.I would be willing to show proof of the money being used towards college costs.
Just to get to know me alittle I'm one of 13 children-(no joking either), and i'd be the first to attend college. We currently have 9 people in our home. As you can tell life isn't easy but God has always made a way for us. I'm just hoping and praying that you don't take this for granted, this is real and I wish someone, anyone could help me. I'd apprechiate it. I pray that someone would be kind enough to lend a helping hand to send me to college so I can fulfill my dream!
Personal grants

HI,

I am in need of a personal grant to help me with my student loans, medical coverage for my 18yr old, and just to get back on my feet. I am working but being a Social Worker does not afford me the big bucks and paying for my education and my daughter's can be expensive. I realize a lot of people have these same problems and maybe mine isn't as bad as others, but I still need the help. I am a 6yr verteran of the US Navy without bennefits for education and limited medical for myself. If anyone can help please let me know.

Thank you.

I need help to reorganize my financial status.

Hi,

My name is Kristi and I need to make a fresh financial start.  Last year my Grandmother lived with my husband and me for the last eight months of her life.  She had Alzheimer's and we were her care givers.  During this time, I lost touch with things and let some really important things slip my mind.  We own a small business in the town that we live in and when she moved in with us I started working from home.  I made some errors financially that has now left us in a real bind that I can not seem to get us out of.  My husband and I work hard and I am trying desperately to reorganize so we can begin our life again without the huge strain of financial distress that I have caused my family by letting myself get out of touch with reality while my Grandmother was with us.  Any help would be appreciated and once I get back on my feet, I vow to continue visiting this site helping others in my position.  I am in need of $8700.00 to catch up and get my head above the water so I can get back on track.  If financial help is not available then pray will be much appreciated.

Thank you for the time you took to read this.  God says that I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.  I feel that he lead me to this site.  God Bless you all.

Kristi
