I can not help you financially, I can not do what these wonderful people do everyday. But I can help you learn to be more self sufficient, and I can help you find the HOPEFAITH, INSPIRATION, COURAGE, and STRENGTH that you will need to climb the mountain in front of you.

With Love in my heart,

Slowly, sinking further into darkness, my grip weakens.  Notifications plastered to my front door prevent me from hiding it anymore.  Society has branded me a failure and continues to humiliate me.  I tell myself to be strong and keep trying but unless Oprah coming or I win the lottery my chances are few.  Though its that hope alone that takes me through another day.  I will look at those who like myself tried but failed in a new light. Our existance may not make it to the society pages of the daily news but each of us is the same as those who have.  In fact I have found an offering for those with so little to mean so much more..a

    In desperate need of help! For the past two years I have been having problems out of my now 14yr old son.  My older son was shot five times because, my 14yr old had a charlie horse and kicked dirt on a young man's pants while they were at a park. Since then he has been acting out. I have have went above and beyond trying to get help and conseling for him. He was on the honor role and started receiving failing grades because he refused to gto school. I have went as far as filing an ungovernable petition to have him court ordered to go to school, stay from certain places and so-called friends. As a mother of four young men I try to be firm, but fair. My requirements of my children are simple, go to school, keep your room clean, don't use drugs and Be a Something and Somebody instead of a Nothing and Nobody! On March 04, 2008 my 14 year old son was home after refusing to go to school. I then questioned him about being home once again. He then started yelling at me, saying that "he hate me", and telling me that "he will Knock me out"! I  threw a paint brush at him and  he balled up his fist and said that, "he will knock me out".After being threatned by my on child I called 911 and  I waited on the police.Once the police arrived one of the officers said that , "as a mother you have every right to discipline your children especially if they are rude and disrespectful". The officers then left and a female officer returned to tell me that she was training the other officer and he was wrong and that "I did not have a right to discipline". I was on the phone with my mother and I was telling her what the officer said. I explained to her that I work everyday and that My Children Must Abide By The Rules. She then told me to hang up the phone, but she never read me my rights or told me that she was placing me under arrest. I told her that "I did not do anything wrong". She then grabbed my arm and yelled for another officer, he came in and stomped on my foot and slapped me on my neck pulling me down the stairs. After falling down the stairs I was told if I did not put my hands behind my back they was going to taser me. They took me to the police station, although they never read me my rights. I told them that I needed medical care because I had no feeling in my toes and they were bleeding. I was taken to the hospital, once examined I had to get stitches in one of my toes and the other one was broken. I was then taken to PBSO Jail and booked on domestic battery on my son who was very disrespectful to me. Now I am on a leave from my job, because once release I was seen by two other doctors who refused to let me work due to foot, shoulder and lower back injuries I sustained from the Officers using excessive force.  All I want to do is be the best mother to my children. It's so much crime and gang activity where we live and I don't  want my kids to become apart of that. I am in need of some financial help or resources. If you can Help me please send the prayers,financial assistance or resource information to  Juanetta Lewis 182 East 28th Street Riviera Beach, Florida 33404 or email me at Lewis2davis@aol.com .Thank you in advance, pray for me and God Bless You!

SUBJECT:   HELP PLEASE !


To Whom It May Concern:

If I may take a few minutes of your time I would like to share with you where my family currently stands with our finances, including our mortgage, and how we got to this point. On May of 2006 I left my previous 12 year job with County Fire Department for the following three reasons: (1) my position with County was being eliminated as of July 1st 2006. (2) Because I was losing my job with County I tried to be positive, aggressive, and proactive in finding a new job before I was let go. I Began testing in Colorado in October of 2005 and was doing very well. I continued testing for the next nine months truly believing I would be successful in getting a job in Colorado in particular with the Denver City Fire Department.  I was very successful with my testing efforts and the job was pending on passing a final background. The Start/hire date was estimated to be around mid July giving us enough time to pack move and get established in our rental home before I started my new job. (3) My wife was pregnant with our second child and was put on mandatory bed rest by her doctor until further notice due to complications. This happened in the first of May and I resigned 5 days later with County Fire to be with my wife and my two year old daughter.

It’s about mid May of 2006; I am home packing the house to move, taking care of my wife and my daughter. I continued making trips to Colorado for final testing and to look for our new home and a rental. We as a family make a trip around the end of May and put money down on a new Pulte house in Broomfield Colorado and we find a rental to live in until our house is built. My parents came along with us because they are also selling their house and moving with us. Our current home in Helendale has not sold yet and the market has dropped significantly from what it was one year ago. We decided that if it doesn’t sale before we move that we could afford to rent it out and we would be able to make up the difference with the money I would be making on my new job.

By June we are ready to move and are looking forward to this exciting new start with our lives in Colorado. Around mid June I receive a letter from Denver City stating that I did not pass the final Background and was disqualified for employment. I called to find out what happened and they said that they could not divulge any information but said that I could hire my own private investigator to find out what caused the problem. I hire an investigator and find out that we have been victims of identity theft for many years and that would automatically disqualify me from any government/public service job. I was confused and angry without any idea what had happened or how to fix this problem.

It is now July of 2006 I am now without a job unable to move and trying to figure out what to do for a job to support my family and how do I accomplish fixing this identity theft problem. I spend the next 8 months trying to fixing the identity theft problem spending over 5, 000.00 dollars of our money (not to mention the 75,000 per year lost from losing employment) making hundreds of phone calls to agencies such as San Bernardino County Sheriff, FBI, FTC, IRS, Social Security, AIG, Creditors, Banks, and many others. I have filed two dozen reports to meet the needs of every agency requesting documentation, I have also spend 8 to 10 hours a day looking for work or working small jobs like washing cars, yard work, small construction jobs etc. I have turned in over thirty (30) applications but I am unable to find work because my fifteen years of experience, diploma, and formal training are all based on the Fire Service. The catch 22 problem is I can’t test for fire departments until the identity theft problem is solved or I would run into the same problem I had with Denver City. I continue to hear the same thing from every employer, why are you here and are you going to go back to the fire service? Once I explained the problem they seemed compassionate about my problem but were unable or unwilling to hire me. Over the months we get further and further behind financially. Finally by mid January of 2007 I find a new job. The job is with Barstow Community College and is only part time at this point but I am extremely happy to be working again. Even though I am working I continue looking for full time work in the fire service.

The past several years I have been in a head on car accident with a drunk driver, lost a child, lost my grandmother on Christmas day, lost a best friend to cancer, lost both cars that we owned, my identity, a career, my dreams, ambitions, hope, peace of mind and joy. I have also sacrificed many personnel items like golf clubs, Thomas Kinkaid art collection, football card collection, collector coins passed down by family, and many other valuable items that we had to garage sale or sold on EBay to make money just so we could survive. Our credit has been severely damaged and our faith challenged. In addition to all of that I have suffered from several illnesses requiring medications and a lot of doctor visits. We experienced corrupt real-estate when we tried to refinance our home to get money to help us and instead we lost 30,000 dollars and gained nothing, that problem is currently under investigation with the DRE. We also gave up our dream to move to Colorado, a new house, a great new job doing what I love, and having the ability to help my parents who are retired and on a fixed income and were also counting on moving. My wife and I are hanging on by a thread and are tired, stressed, frustrated, deeply depressed, angry, and confused. We really don’t want to lose the one thing we have left, our home.

I totally and completely understand that this is not your problem and that you are not responsible for helping us in any way, however, I hope that you can find it in your hearts to help my family anyway possible. This is our problem and I take my commitment that I made to you very serious and we continue to do all wee can to make things right again. We really don’t want to lose our house. I refuse to walk away without trying to do everything in my power first. I don’t want a short sale or foreclosure, this does nothing for you or me to solve the problem and in the end we all lose. I am confident that there is an answer to this problem and that it can be solved. Again, I understand you don’t owe us anything and you have every right to take our home, I just ask that if there is any way possible that you or anyone else may be aware of to help us help our selves get back on track, please let me know. Please help us if you can.

As stated in this letter I am now working part time and my wife starts working the first of April. We are confident that we can get back on our feet and are slowly getting there. Please understand that we have lost over 100,000 dollars this past year to year and half, but we are not going to give up we are resilient, confident, humble and hard working and we are committed to make this unfortunate situation right again. We will try to do ALL we can to make this work and pray you can help us. I thank you so much for your time and consideration in regards to this matter.

 The following documentation can be provided to you for verification if you request it:

1. Police report
2. FTC report #
3. Investigation report

I am a mother of a 2 year old son.  My husband and I try very hard to make a home for our family.  He lost his job the day after Christmas and has had trouble finding another one.  I have picked up some contract work, and am now working two contract jobs in addition to my full time job.  I was diagnosed 2 years go with multiple sclerosis, so the extra work is not an easy task.

Anyway, we got behind one month on our house payment and have been unable to catch up.  Our bank is demanding two months (the behind month plus this month) payment within 48 hours.  I don't have it and don't know what to do.

HI,

I am a 51 yrear old mother and grandmother of 2 with 8 years experience working with special children and adults.  This past year has been exceptionally challenging personally because of my son who has ADHD and Bi-Polar disorder.  My Mom was diagnosed with ling cancer and my DAD had to have a pacemaker and still only has partial functioning of his heart.  I really need this assistance to get back on my feet so that I can be empowered to become self-sufficient and self-supporting again. I am praying that someone will feel my pain and believe in my abilities to help myself as well as other.  Wherever you are, you are in my prayers along with others out there who are going through trying times.  In Pslams 30:5 it tells us that "weeping last but for a night, joy comes in the morning."  I am clinging to these words because I know God has not brought me this far to leave me.  GOD BLESS!

I am here because I am a young, smart, dedicated mother of 2 very smart loving kids. I have come to a point in my life where the man that I trusted with our lives just decided to leave us with nothing. It is sad because he controlled everything and could care less about me and our kids well being. I have been a stay at home mother and I do not have any unnecessary bills. All I have is rent, utilities, food, car insurance and very little money for anything else. I want to go back to school to make something of myself but there are other things that stand in my way. I need a job but no one here will take a chance on me because I havent worked and I have no experience. I need money for everyday living and it makes it harder when I want to work and go to school and then I need money for a babysitter that I can trust with my kids. I am just so stressed that I cannot provide the things that I need for my kids. I here all the time about people going into debt and well I dont want to do that to myself or my kids. I want to have some stability for themand myself but it seems like I am getting nowhere and well the money that I still have will not last long. I am not sure what I am asking for I just know that I need help. I want to find a job at home but I cant invest the little money that I have. I have sold alot of my things to make more money and well that in itself makes me sad. I just really need something to help me get by. I would really love it if this site is real and well I am not afraid to talk to someone that is real and not looking to add to the stresses that I have. I am just so afraid that my kids will have to see the harsh realities of. I want to give them a roof over there head but I can only afford a few more months and I really dont know what to do. I just dont want them to feel in secure. I want the simple things in life but no one is willing to give me a chance to prove myself to them. Life is hard but it seems to want to keep me down rather than letting me and my family prosper.

 I have a list of things that I "WISH" I could have but then again I am not to lazy to make my wishes come true. I just need some help to be stabel enough to give my kids a home.I live in a small apartment and well to better understand my situation I am pretty much living off of 1500 a month and my rent is more than half that amount. I cant get a deposit for another place and well where I live it is a really reasonable price. My landlord is really nice and understanding but he is also struggling and well with 2 kids and we dont go shopping alot. Me and my kids have all second hand things, we eat canned goods most of the time, and we just spend time together so the good thing is that my kids dont need the fancy things to make them happy. They do want the new things but they know that I cant give it to them because I dont have the money. I would love to give them the nicer things for their birthdays and holidays but I cant sacrifice the money in that way. I am just feel so inadequate at times. I want to give them extra things because they are smart and deserve them but everything is so pricey. We rarely go to mcdonalds and when we go we only get the dollar menu thing and we go where we can get free refills. I mean that is a good thing but to have to explain to my little ones that I cant do more because mommy dont have the resources really makes me depressed. They dont know the things that I have to struggle with and I hope they never know but they see it and ask questions and I have to try and tell them something else that is positive. It becomes torture at times when they see the things that others recieve and how others indulge in the luxuries of life.

ADDED this on May 10,2008

I am really looking forward to making a life with my kids but now I am trying to find some grants that I can apply for so that I can go back to school. I am having a hard time getting a job and finding needed help. I would really love it if people could help me financially but that is a dream in it self. I understand that people dont know if I am real or not but all I can say is that I am and if someone is generous enough to help me out they would be doing a great thing. I would be happy with 5 dollars I mean every little bit helps. I have really changed so much in my life to make a honest life with my kids and it hurts me that I cant give them the things that once had. They understand the situation a little but it still sucks for them because they are so young. I want to give them some security but here in hawaii it is quite difficult. I dont know what can help me but I just really dont want to go in to debt so that is why I am asking for help before we have to suffer more with those things. I am a open person and real as can be. I am not lying and well I hope that a decent person is willing to get to know me and my family enough to see that I am not scamming anyone. I really want grants for schools and I just dont know which ones are legit. But if anyone just wants to help me in monetary things that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading this and I hope that there are generous people out there that would like to help me and my kids in our time of need. I know there are alot out there and i probaly dont have a really hard story but I just dont want my kids to have to suffer a moment of hardships. Please feel free to respond. Thank you again

  Please Help!  Several years ago while employed as a bus driver I slip and fell down the steps of the school bus. I injured my knee and had to undergo a partial knee replacement. The doctor whom did the surgery left screws loose that damaged my knee more severely. I later found out that I needed to have a revision of my surgery that lead to a total knee replacement. My job advised me that my injury was not job related although I had all the proof. I was told by the supervisor and risk management to resign or be terminated. I then was left with no job and no money. My mortgage got behind and I had to cash in my 403b IRA to make ends meet. My daughter was helping me with all my other expenses, but she was just injured and no longer working so she can not help me. I need help with my utility bills, medicine and mortgage. I receive SSI and it's not enough to cover my monthly expenses. I have hypertention, suffer from depression and have a sleeping disorder. Recently my doctor advise me that I need to have a knee replacement on my other knee. If anyone can assist me with a small donation of $1.00 or send me information with an agency that can assist me my address is 1869 North Congress Avenue West Palm Beach, Fl 33401 or email me at Darryl_lewis@bellsouth.net.

I am a single mother of 5.  I have three children of my own and 2 that were given to me eight and two years ago. I moved to Tennesse about two months ago from Oklahoma. I was born and raised in OK. I wanted my kids to have a better life. In Oklahoma in the town I lived in, they were surrounded by drugs and alcohol. They were learning that they did not ever have to grow up, and that doing drugs and drinking was cool. Most of this they were learning from family, and I don't believe in this stuff. I want to be able to raise my kids, spend time with my kids, and be a good mother. I have tried many ways for many years, in OK , to keep my children away from family that does drugs and drinks, and bums around. I was surrounded by stress, and beginning to get depressed, so i moved to TN where I had a cousin who wanted to help me and also did not want to return to OK. But through circumstances beyond her control, she has to leave for OK at the end of August. I will have no where to live, and have just secured a job, but I will not recieve a paycheck untill 9-3-02. I don't want to pull my kids out of school. They love their new school. I am just a mother, who is trying her best to take care of her children. Thank you to anyone who can help me.

Ishtar is a shining star, a beautiful soul full of happiness and love. You only have to look up to see her. And if you set eyes on her, her love will fill your heart. She will love you because you love her. If you are kind to her, you will be blessed all your life. If you do not wish to see her, then pass her by, look downward and keep going, for it is better to not hurt her with evil in your heart. Do not have pity on her...only love her.

  If there is someone out there that would listen to my plight, open their heart and reach out to help me in any way that they can. With prayer, advice and or financially it would answer my prayer.

  Four and a half years ago I was married to my then loving wife of 19 years. I was then and will allways be first and foremost a child of the most high God Jesus Christ. My wife began to withdraw her affection and love for me. She didnt seem happy. I began praying over her and my 11 year old son every morning before work. I asked God to heal the growing space between my cherished wife, my girl.... I asked him to change me, my life or to do what ever is nessessary to bring me closer to Him and to my wife. God spoke to me, to my heart and said to hold on and trust Him.... Almost the next day my life seemed to change. Things started to happen. Good things at the time they happend. Months past by and we decided to move to my wifes home town. To make her happy I agreed and things started looking better and better. God had a plan. I trusted Him fully. God found me a new job at a place I dreamed of my entire life. I was so happy and in love with my wife... Then she wasnt happy once more. I was stunned but still trusted in God. Within one month my wife was unhappy and was telling others of her dislike for me and our marrage. I loved her. I loved my son. I loved my marrage. And most of all I loved and trusted God.

  One day before my Baptisim, I was told by my Pastor that My wife would file for divorce that next coming wensday. I was crushed. I asked God Why? I trusted You God. Why? My son suffered so much. He didnt understand.

  Over the next four and a half years, I have struggled to pay my bills. I suffered bankruptsy. I lost security clearences at work which made me almost loose my job. Also it made me loose two promotions at work. I have watched my son be torn apart by a hurtful woman, that by this time, I didnt even know.... My future looks dim once more at work at the brink of layoff.

  But after all this I still have the love of a wonderful God, His Son and His Spirit. I will allways pray for My ex wife. I have forgiven her. I trust the Lord that He will come to my rescue. People can take material things away but they cant take away my dreams. I will keep dreaming, hoping and praying for God in His way to help me through others, through His love and most of all, for His wisdom.

  I pleed for anyone that reads this to help me. Please pray about it. Please ask God to help me. If God puts it on your heart, Please help me. Amen!
