Hello & Welcome,

I really dont know what to say or what to type. Well here I go, I'm a father of two beautiful children & married to a beautiful and very loving wife; yes I am blessed "THANK YOU LORD" for my Family. I have tried for 3 months to make money. Which brings me here, we have fallen 3 months behind on my bills ($3,600) & 1 month on the rent ($1,000) totalling $4,600 dollars. I dont have a sad story "Thank you Lord", but yes we are in need of help. Yes I typed it WE NEED HELP, any Help. Weather its with $1 or any amount, the buttom line or what I'm trying to say is that my family & I are in a bad situation and heading to a worse situtaion. I'm in search for a new job, but we just dont have time not to pay the bills. I've been on several interviews and been unsuccessful. I have no pressure tactics or anything, the only thing we have is prayer and patience, for the Lord always pulls us through; by using other people to help others.   

Thank you & GOD BLESS

I am a 22 year old full-time college student in New York, and will be graduating in May. The problem is I am uninsured and cannot afford dental work that would enable me to speak to others much less smile at graduation. I have been on medicaid in the past a had dental work done, but it has just exacerbated the problem. One dentist did a root canal and then just stuck Temperin in the space, needless to say it did not last long and now the front tooth has broken. I have tried financing options but do not have the credit necessary to secure plans like care credit, captial one. I need extensive dental work, but would be happy with just the front tooth fixed. My mother and sister also struggle with dental problems, and have encountered the same problems I have. My hope by posting this plea is to find a dentist or someone to help my family and me get the dental care we desparately need. We have worked hard, but this is one expense we cannot take on by ourselves. Any assistance that could be provided would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I need the money because I had and adnormal pap smear and I have to go to the doct and pay 250.00 to be able to go and I really need it done.They told me to make sure I go to the doct. on time so please help me!! Also I am about to start school in May and I really want to go to school but my car just is a death trap and I cant drive it know more and I need to see if someone would be willing to let me borrow it and we will pay them back as soon as possible or know of any type of program out there. My family really needs the help badly. If someone is able to help or have any info please get back to us!!!!  Thank you!!

My wife and I are trying to start a new business.  We put everything we have into it so far, but are still short

The business is airbrushing art onto anything.  Business is starting to pickup, but we are behind on our house payments because we put so much into this new business.

If anyone out there can help with a donation of any sum so we won't lose our home we pledge to do the same as soon as we can. 

My wife is working a low paying factory job to try and make ends meet.  I am somewhat disabled due to severe ostioporosis and COPD.  God gave me the gift of art and she thought that we should follow that path.  Currently, I am almost unemployable and we have 2 children to raise.

Thank you,

Jack Nehl

Things have been a rollercoaster for a while. I have several health problems that just keep getting worse. The only reason that I have been able to keep working is because I am self employed. I run a daycare in my home and my finace has been able to take care of our daycare kids. In fact he does most everything. He takes care of our own 3 children, does most of the cleaning and grocery shopping, all of the maintenance; there isn't much that I can do. I need to have several surgeries. My doctor feels that I should be placed on disability so that I can focus on my health. Now, the income we are bringing in is no longer paying the bills and we have no health insurance. My fiance has taken second jobs many times to help bring us through, but he hasn't been able to find anything in 8 months. So he joined the military. He leaves for boot camp in a month. He made this decision because of the insurance benefits for me. Without him, I cannot keep doing daycare and we don't know how long it will take to get disability payments started. We are going to be married next week. We aren't even able to have anyone at the service, especially his family, who lives out of state. We are so behind in our payments that I had to apply for assistance to pay our utilities after our gas was shut off. Our power is scheduled for shut off this week. We are also 2 months behind in our house payments. We deperately need help! We are going to loose everything and I don't know what I am going to do without him, especailly if we end up homeless. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We are looking for help to get out of the hole and on our feet. We will repay it all, and pass it on. 

Hi, my name is Julie and I am blessed to have such a wonderful son. Just over a year ago, our family received news that changed our lives forever, our youngest son was diagnosed with autism(autism spectrum disorder),moderate to severe.This diagnoses did not come as a shock to us considering our son didn't start walking until age 2 , rarely ever spoke , and had severe emotional detachment from our family.Our son has been in Speech , physical , and occupational therapy along with applied behavioral annalysis therapy since he was 16 months old. Our son is also "a runner" ,we have made some modifications to our home ,but need to make many more. It is a true blessing to spend as much time as I do with my son , it is also a financial challenge to have our household pare down from two incomes to one. My husband recently was downsized from his job , and is currently supporting our family on a three hundred sixty dollar a week job , until something in his area of experience becomes available. We are in need of making modifications to our home , a child's bedroom set ,and  repairs to our vehicle. We would appreciate any kind of help you would like to give. Thank you so much , God bless you.

I am not disabled or sick or elderly. I just need a little help to get back on my feet. I have been out of work for 2 months now and I need help to pay for my basic needs. I have a wife and 3 children. I have twin girls age 13 and a 5 year old boy. I just want some assistance to pay for the basic needs of my family (food, rent, electricity, water). I am asking for about 2 months of assistance to allow me to find a job plus money to catch up on rent and utility bills. My water was turned off today. I have a turn-off notice for my electricity if not paid by tomorrow (4/11/2008). I am two months behind in my rent. I need about $2500 to catch up on past due bills plus about $2500 to sustain my family for 2 months. Thank you in advance for your help and consideration.

This is in despiration.... I am amazed at the stories I have heard about People helping People. I am married to a wonderful man. Together we have one son. Our son is 4 years old. We have been married for five and a half years. We have been on staff at a church since we were married. In August of 2007, we were asked to reisgn our position at our church. We were the Children's Pastors... and loved every bit of our job! Because my husband and I were hurt so bad by this.. we dicided to take a break for a while from the ministry. We didn't want to try to be happy when we weren't happy on the inside. So now it has been almost five months since and we are getting farther and farther behind... Our bills just pile up and pile up. We live in Houston, TX. Our whole family lives in North Texas... It's not that far, but far enough to not be able to see them that much. Due to them being so far away.. we weren't able to go see anyone for Thanksgiving. The same is going to happen for Christmas. Someone that my husband works with gave us some toys for Christmas. We devided them with our sister who has three grandchildren. So, for Christmas we have about 5 toys for our son. We are not going to North Texas to see our family. We are so behind in monthly bills, that we owe about 3,000 dollars in current bills by the end of December... about 700 is due this week... I am asking for a miracle. We need someone to help... I know if our family could help.. they would, but we don't come from a family of money. We are simple people who need a break this Christmas. My husband does have a good paying job now. He is happy with it. But we need to catch up from the several months of no income coming in... We are afraid we will loose everything... our home.... our cars... electricy.... everything... Please, if there is anything you can do to help us... We need it. I know God will bless you ten fold.

Thanks so much, xandos4up@yahoo.com
