paying bills

I need help.

I am in debt greatly.  This debt is from unexpected expenses.  I can no longer pay my bills as they have gotten way out of reach.  I am nearly $25,000 in debt and need help.  I am 29 years old and I am married to a wonderful man.  We have a 6 year old daughter.  I have taken this burden of debt upon myself and have paid these debts with my credit card, because I did not want to worry him about these expenses.  They have gotten out of control and I need help.  I cannot tell my husband.  He will feel betrayed and lose all trust and faith in me.  I have tried ways to make money, but they have all failed.  I cannot get a job, because we have only one car and there is no public transportation available where I live.  I live in the rural country outside of the city.  I do not know what to do.  I am getting sick and losing weight.  This is on my mind constantly.  I need help.  Do you know anybody who can help me with my debt.  I am embarrased to write this letter, but I have no choice.  I have spoken to my mom, but she has ignored my situation.  Please help me somebody.  I am serious, I need help, I do not know what else to do. I do not want to lose my husband and daughter.

help paying bills

How do I get a grant to help pay my bills? I would also like to know what grants I qualify for.

don't know if this is real or not...

I happened across this page accidentally..but I do need some assistance.  I am in a weird predicament, in some ways like others who have posted here yet not the same.  I am overqualified for every job I apply for and recently found two jobs one working for a home health agency doing marketing.  Thought I would actually get ahead but have fallen further behind.  Fell behind because will doing marketing I spent 290.00 for gas traveling and my paycheck for a two week period was a little over 300.  The owner of the company refused to pay for travel expenses despite my providing thirty company leads.  I didn't give up though, decided since the job was costing money that I would quit.  Found a job waiting tables the shifts were so bad that i would walk out with an average of 8 dollars per shift (also figured that was why no body wanted to work there), but the sad thing is i had to pay 5.00 a day for parking.  At this job worked for three weeks and barely made 250.00.  Rent is 425 elec/gas is 125 and barely making it.  I recently found another job but haven't started yet. I will get paid once a month. so by the time i do get paid i will be behind two months on bills.  I haven't made a car payment since november so I figure soon I will be without transportation.  Not one for selling my soul but if this is real and you can help it would be nice.  I am a very hard worker.  have worked two jobs and going to college full time. so, if you can connect me with a decent paying job fast i would be grateful.

student in trubble

i am a student at Baltimore international college. i work really hard at school and finding a job that will work with me is hard. My parents  are not willing to help me and i am payiing for school on my own with loans. i am kinda in a hole with my bank and i have some bills like my car incurence coming up and i need help to get out. Please help me i have no one to turn to and iam hopeing this will help.

financial assistance

    I am currently looking for assistance from whomever can assist my family. If you are able to give financially we would greatly appreciate it. I have put off for quite some time in asking for financial help because of my pride. I wanted to try and make it by myself but this has affected my family and I now must seek help elswhere. My wife and I both work but it hasn't been enough. We have a son that is going to a special school that deals with emotional disorders and is very expensive. Paying this bill has effected our other financial requirements and we are in the hole by a few months and may lose our home and vehicles, not to mention our utilities are close to being cut off. They will only take quarter payments for so long. My oldest son wishes to go to college after high school but with our financial outlook this may not be possible withiut grants or other funding. I do not want money to hold him back from furthering his education. Can anyone financially assist us? This message is true from the heart and not some scam that I know is out there all the time. Thank you for even considering our plight.

Disability

I was diagnose with Lupus in 2004. The Lupus attact my heart, kidney and nervous system. I lost my job and can no longer work. Since then my husband has been responsible for paying most of the bills and his income is not enough and we have fallen behind on our bills.We need financial help. Thank you in advance!

 

 

I need help.

I am the mother of three children.  I lost my job in March due to illness.  My husband is working really hard trying to keep us going but without my income its close to impossible.  Our car note is behind and they are threating to get the car, but we need it so that my husband can get back and forth to work, our lights are about to get cut off too.  Everything is behind and I don't know what we are going to do.  I have been looking for a job, putting in applications everywhere, even fast food restaurants, but no one has called me for an interview yet.  I haven't given up on obtaining another job yet, but until I get some income coming in to help my husband out, I'm afraid we may end up living in the shelter. It's not that we are not paying our bills, but we have so many and they are so expensive, especially our utilities and rent. Please can someone help us out. 

Desperate!!!

I am a single mother of a 3mos old and a 14 month old.  I don't know what to do.  The father is nowhere to be found and I can barely by formula.  I am trying very hard to work and not rely on the system.  But I almost have no choice.  I am August 3rd I will be evicted if I don't come up with at least 3000.00.  My only immediate option is a shelter and in Nevada i desperatly don't want my babies to be in a hot shelter.  I am scared and desperate.  I promise if there is anyone who is willing to lend me a helping hand I will repay you with interest.  I do work.  But I just need a little boost to get things back on track.  I will provide you all the information you need.  Thank you

New Mom, injured, needs help paying utilities.

My name is Heather, I am a mother of two wonderful boys. One is two years old, and the other is two months old.  While trying to carry them both to the car I fell and broke my foot.  So I have not yet been able to return to work after taking the mandatory 6 weeks off after having the baby.  I am about to be able to go back, but most of my utilities are also about to be turned off. I need help paying my electric, gas, water, phone bill, and one months rent.  After one month, I will be back at work, and able to support the kids and myself.  I just don't want us to lose our house in the mean time. If you could offer any help or have any sugestions please e-mail me jones_heather82@hotmail.com.  THANKS

I'm desperate and I need help.
My husband and I are doing all we can do and it's not enough.  We recently lost a business and still have all the debt left over from this.  We are trying o do the right thing and pay our debts but the constant struggle is wearing us down.  We left our home in Alabama and moved to Louisiana to try to find work.  We still have the place in Alabama that we are paying for we can't sell it for what we owe on it.  We are now living in an old restaurant with our two children.  I want better for my family but just don't know what else to do.  Is there anyone any where that can help?
Need help getting on the right track

I go between sleeping on friends and my parents couch. I've been unable to obtain a 2nd job close to where I work. I don't have a car, so I depend on walking and public transportation. My job offers me no more than 20 hours a week. My goal is to save up at least $1,000 for a new apartment. Any help would highly be appreciated so that I can have a place to lay my head at night peacefully. If you can, please e-mail me at this address for suggestions: luna_loves_lillies@yahoo.com

Homemaker

I am a married mom of 2. I am currently a homemaker and am unable to work due to a back condition. I have applied for disability, but was denied. I have a bulging disk in my lower back and mild spondylosis. I am on quite a few restrictions by my doctor. My husband is working, however, is not making what he used to. He was laid off from his prior job in August. We did collect unemployment, but that was about $80 less a week than his paycheck. He got a new job in November making $300 less a month than his prior job. This has taken a big toll on us.

Our rent is due on the 1st of each month. We are late paying January's rent of $800 and we will be getting our court ordered eviction notice very soon. On top of that we have to come up with February's rent and we have a $270 electric shut off. I have gone to several agencies for assistance, however, funds are very low everywhere.

I am not asking or begging for a hand out. I'm asking for a small loan of $1000. We are due to get our taxes back next month and I will be able to pay back this loan then.

My paypal address is: staceysediblegreetings@yahoo.com

I am currently trying to start a business at home, but I don't have the funds to do proper advertising.

I don't want to offend anyone by talking about my home business, but if I could actually get some customers, that would help out a lot.

Would YOU help me please?

Dear Reader,

First of all, I would like to say thank you for taking the time to read and consider my needs. 

I am a teacher who is trying to re-enter the work field due to a past illness.  I am a single mom with an 8 year old daughter who is dependent upon me as well for her needs.  I currently live in a small town where there is little opportunity for employment.  I am substitute teaching, however, the days that I am called to work are few. 

I have a couple of bills (total = $1800)that are delinquent and need taken care of.  As well as, I am desperately trying to relocate to a bigger city suburb where there is much more opportunity for teaching - both substituting and permanent positions.  The total I would need to relocate is $2400 to move and cover rent/deposits.  I am positive that I can work there once I get there (many internet ads and job postings)... but I need help getting there.

Please... any help that you could give to my daughter and I would be GREATLY appreciated!

I can be contacted by email:  rhea625@gmail.com

Thank you so much,

Rhea

Well, I need help right now on paying some back judgements. My family and I got eveicted oct. 31, 2007.  My husband had an injury aug.of 2006 and just went back to work in dec. 2007.  We tried to get help paying our rent but we used all of our resource.  Our luck ran out before we were back on our feet.  Now my husband is working for a trucking company and I work for headstart.  What suck is that our children and i are living with family and friends all in different location.  we found a place to move in to but until the judgements are paid we can't do nothing.  I need about 6300.00 to get us into a place to live.  I really hate not being together right now.  Any help would be great.  instead of paying everyone to have our kids there,  I would love to be a family again.  we now can make it but that amount is to much for us to pay so we can be a family again.  we are a strong family but we all miss each other greatly.
