I am desperate to be self supportive and financially stable by my own hand. Single mother with no way to get ahead. I have just downsized and bought a smaller house and am very interested in the idea of buying, fixing and making them more energy efficient and selling houses. I have access to lots of proffessional construction small businesses and would love to churn economic life into area. I need to invest in a couple of houses in order to get this ball rolling. Then it should sustain itself if all goes as planned. Any help on investment capital or grants availability. Thanx

I have never been the type to ask for the help of others, as I have worked really hard since I was a teen. I recently had to leave my last job and for the last month haven't been able to makes ends meet. I have completely cut out anything that I don't absolutely need and I am STILL struggling. My rent was due by the 6th of August and if it isn't paid by the 21st, I will be EVICTED! I have always paid rent on time and can't imagine what I would do without a place to live. I have busted my behind sending out my resume and attending interviews on a regular basis; at 24 people tell me I'm OVER-qualified for most of the jobs I apply to.

I am looking for up to 5 people to lend about $150-$200 by the 21st of August, so I can pay rent. I pledge to pay these people back the 21st of September, as I expect to have gotten a job and a couple of paychecks under my belt. I do have some promising leads right now, but those won't pay the rent by next week! Thank you in advance for your kindness, I know this is short notice! I will keep you posted on the job search and successes!

Hi,

This is a very difficult letter to write.  Asking for help is not something that I am use to doing but, I have tried every avenue I can find to get a loan to help pay my parents and family debts.  I have become the care taker of my parents (Mother has early stages of Alzheimers) and my father is in poor physical condition and uses a walker.  I have gone into debt (credit card - mostly) trying to pay for all of our needs but, I can not make it alone.  If I can clear up my debt, I will be able to relocate myself and my parents to a place that we can afford.  I am making $32,000 year but, with my student loan, debt, and parents additional expenses, I truly need help.  I am so worried all the time that I can not concentrate on anything else.

I am doing all that I can to make extra money but, it is not enough.  I, too have been praying for help, and finding this site, may be the answer.

Thank you for your thoughtfullness and consideration in helping me.

Sincerely,

Hannah01

I'm (fortunately) not currently in need of help.  I found this site while doing a search re. disabled housing for a friend who's on (very low) Soc. Sec. disability & is currently in a domestic violence shelter after leaving her abusive husband.  She's finding it very challenging to find a place in our city (low-income housing is tight, and even more so for the disabled).  I myself am disabled, and was previously in an abusive marriage.  I'll be glad to talk with anybody dealing with similar situations.

Listen no sob story here, just a cold hard life problem and I don't know what to do!! My wife on friday morning left out to take my son to finally get his hearing aids, have insurance but still took $1000.00 dollars to get, he was without for over a year, mind you it took us that long to save enough money to get them, ok here is where the problem is: Our van overheated on the highway, she calls, I go out to check it out, found a hose leak, I later that afternoon go to fix the leak with JB Weld, it works I'm releived, but oh no when it starts I have little power, I try taking off, my friend stops me, smoke and water coming out the tail pipe. CRACKED HEAD bad news. Cost to fix $1000-$2500 dollars. We still owe roughly $5000.00 dollars 1 years payment, the note is in her step dads name, he won't help us get a new note with trade of our blown van. A high intrest note in our name we could get but we still have a payment on a undrivable van of $515.00 a month, not possible. I have a 1991 ford ranger which will get her to work for now, but a family of 5 won't fit as you know. She works has a decent income coming in, I stay at home and watch my 3 boys and work a job 3 nights a week. With all bills coming in we have no extra money, please know it took us a year to save the thousand needed for my sons hearing aids. What do you do, I know have 3 kids at home every day withoot transportation. We were so close to getting ahead we had 1 year to pay on the van, what a blessing to come we thought. Oh by the way our credit is shot because our house we bought was taken from us when my wife was fired from her past employer. This is not some scam, I'm just looking for some solutions. Someone to fix our Van with a lowpayment plan option, someone with an extra ride, with a low payment plan, any usefull help please, Myself and family would gladly meet and talk about in more detail later. Please I'm not looking for help because were druggies or bumbs, just a normal problem in America, without any more ideas on what to do, except wait and see if a MIRACLE happens. Thank you for reading. KcMitch
