How Does Aidpage Work

If you need help...

Sign up here on Aidpage - free, takes about 10 seconds, don't need an email. Post a new message with pictures and information about your current situation and your needs - it's easy, technical skills are not required. Then, browse other people's aidpages. Use the comments section on their aidpages to send them messages. Some of them will respond to you. At the same time, other people will be visiting your aidpage and writing to you. Write back to them. Talk to each other. Make aidmates.

How can aidmates help each other...?

Aidpage doesn't tell you how to help each other... It's up to you to decide. Advice and good information are easy to share right here on Aidpage. But you can do whatever you find appropriate and necessary... in whatever way you can. Use the aid information and web links contributed by other aidmates. Add to these resources. Be a good aidmate.

If you want to help others...

Simply browse or search Aidpage and wherever interested, post comments or contact the people. They will respond to you. Make aidmates. You can even start your own group right here on Aidpage. A group has a better chance to make a difference in a single person's life or to work for a larger cause. Aidpage is free... no limit on how many pages you can post here or how many groups you can organize. Most importantly - you'll be on the web with a purpose!

The easiest way to help...

The more people know about Aidpage, the better for all aidmates. Add your friends, relatives, and colleagues as email contacts here on Aidpage. Use this new feature of Aidpage to bring in the much needed attention and support to those in need.

People Aid People - The Platform

Simply posting on Aidpage makes you an Aidmate. Aidmates take part in something larger - a new worldwide public place where people see each other and help each other... with no fuss... and no need to work through organizations with all their rules, overhead costs, bureaucracy, and political agendas. On Aidpage, you are totally free to ask for help... or offer help... with no need for "proving" or "reporting" anything to anyone. Basically, there is no "process" on Aidpage.

We, at Aidpage, do not plan on tracking who gives to whom... what, why, or how much. Handling of material transactions between Aidmates is left to their own discretion, mutual agreement, and responsibility. We do not plan on posting "success stories" on Aidpage either. We believe people are "wired" for trust. We believe empathy and compassion need no incentives.

There are words like "micro-giving" and "direct philanthropy" coming from the world of the traditional "donor-recipient-beneficiary" philanthropy. We understand, however, that giving is a basic human need in itself. So we prefer to just say "people aid people". All Aidmates are always donors and beneficiaries.

I am a young fit 38 year old women looking for assistance in starting an Alpaca Ranch. I am in need of a cash gift of $100,000.00.

In closing, in order to start this very prosperous business, of which not only will this ranch produce a very good income through breeding, selling fleece and showing. In fact, this will also allow me to do what I love and that is work with and care for animals. In addition, escape the stress of the big city, work outdoors and provide for my family.

Ok. I am going through a tough time and would like to know if I can get some information from some of you. I am a 19 yo. single mother, of a beautiful baby boy. I recently got out of an abusive relationship, Vincents father. He is now in jail for about a year. I am living with my father, and working 45+ hours a week, paying $125.00 a week for daycare, and things that Vincent needs. I plan on going to school in April but I will need some assistance. I am barely getting by with the money I make and the daycare I pay for. I owe $3,000.00 in bills from my last apartment with my X, not including the medical bills from my son. I am in such a jam and very depressed. I want to be able to provide for Vincent on my own. And have a good life. I just don't know how I can get started. It seems like I will never get to where I want to be. I really need to know how I can get my life and Vincents life together (besides marrying a rich guy! HAHA!) If anyone can help send me in the right direction on aid or anything I would really appreciate it. I live in Florida and I am on the waiting list for daycare assistance, through ChildCare Res. Network, but I asked the woman on the phone how long I would be waiting and what is the longest she has seen someone wait, and she told me up to 3 years. So I am very stressed about my life! I NEED HELP! Please, if you can help either write back on here, or feel free to email me @ AndreaDHeintz@aol.com. Thank you for reading all of my problems!!!! HAHA! -Andrea & Vincent :o)

I dont think I have ever asked anyone for help in my life, I have two sons to consider so I will swallow my pride and ask for you to please pray and consider offering help to us. I live in an older home alone with my two children that I proudly care for. This last winter season was hard for me financially. I have a gas bill totaling $604.00 Obviously I cannot afford this. I wouldnt worry so much about it but my water heater runs from a gas furnace! We have been taking cold showers for over a month now and I have to boil water to wash dishes or to wash my younger son. Please, find it in your heart to be of some help to us. I thank you for your time reading this post. God Bless you.

ok, new here and not sure how this works. sorry, I am very upset. I am in dire straights and have exhausted EVERY resource available to me. I have gone all the way to Washington DC for help and been turned down. I have too MANY needs they say..whatever. I am a 39 yr. old AF widow who is losing my electric tomorrow, have lost my doctor and dentist due to no money or insurance. Am going through seizures from lack of necessary meds..free clinic will not give them to me since they are controlled. Have been to ER several times since August for a tooth that has an exposed nerve and needs root canal. Am going to lose my liver soon from living on antibiotics..$8200 to fix my teeth but that may be a moot point since I have a defective mitral valve in my heart and if the infection hits that, guess it's basically over. Have lost all friends and family so am alone and no clue except to jump in car that is shot and just leave and wherever I break down, there I am. Guess I will beg, borrow or steal to get the meds that keep me from seizing..have a headache and bump STILL on my head from a seizure 3 weeks ago! Never had a seize in my life until no doc to presribe meds. isn't this country great to their fallen hero's widows...blah.. Julie Evansville, IN toplessvettepilot@webtv.net

 Well I can't really say much about me worth any thing considering , I was a active alcoholic most of my life and I finally went to prison for 17 month's , I took my GED while I was there and passed everything but the essay, of course , so now I will try to improve in that area and just maybe I will accomplish that before to long. I'm just trying every day to be a better person , mom ,daughter , friend , maybe one day wife.
