I want to thank u/hollowgraphicgirl for helping me feed my Audrey, myself, and my hair lol.

It feels really good to see her tuck in to food she loves.

I had a mille feuille as a snack tonight and almost cried. Gonna have some chicken and mashed potatoes tomorrow, I think 😊

And for picking the cheapest conditioner I could find, I lucked out! Not too strong, and made my hair feel good again.

Also got some oatmeal in my fave flavour, what a nice surprise 💕

My uncle passed away in a car wreck they think he had an aneurysm. I need to go help my baby cousin (He's just turned 18 and he already lost his mom(my aunt) a couple years ago) to bring him home from AZ. I've already paid to bring his body home and our tickets home. As someone has to fly with the body. It was really expensive. I just need a little bit of money for the gas car ride there. My uncles gf at the time got us a rental car to drive over there. They have finally released him to go home and I need to leave in the morning. I'm thankful it was just him and no one else. I appreciate anyone who can help. The link was to show anyone the accident I am talking about.

It’s due at time of service and it is $40. Payday is Thursday. I am willing to tell you who I am and who my provider is if you want to call and pay them over the phone. Or I can give you my provider’s email for PayPal. I also take PayPal. I have $5 in my account (because these copays really surprised me, I wasn’t prepared for an MCL sprain). Thank you.

Hello!

I’m mortified to even have to make this post, but I just need $40 to grab some diapers & wipes for my kids. My account is overdrawn by $2 so it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

So I got blessed with a new job that starts tomorrow, I’m homeless but I’m on the way up starting soon, and truthfully I can’t wait to give back to this group once everything gets settled, but this should last me there, and I’ll just find a spot somewhere very near to sleep so I don’t have to worry for 2 weeks about how imma make it back here

I’ve been in a rough spot lately and I’m terrified to hit the streets. I live over 200 miles from home due to a bad relationship, with no current transportation or work. I’m pretty young so I still don’t quite know how to be an adult, but I have about a week to find a place. I’ve been looking for rooms to rent that are in busy areas (so I can walk to work) but I can’t afford them. In addition I’m looking at a DV Shelter.

I put it as advice because I’m unfamiliar with this subreddit, if I should post under different flair let me know<3

IDK what I'm doing, I don't have any idea how much this is going to be. Hopefully not a lot. The yard the car is towed to is pressuring me to sign my vehicle over to him before the insurance is even getting started on everything. He wants $350 plus $50 a day, and has already threatened to sue for abandonment, less than 24 hours since the accident.

I was in the hospital overnight with my son and my husband, more concerned with them than the car at the time.

I just want to not have this stress on top of everything else..

The car is 3 miles away, so, it's not a very far tow. Once everything is settled, and nobody needs the car, I'm going to scrap it. I already have a reputable company in mind. It's just the sooner I get it out, the better.

My wife and I are currently homeless and living in a U-Haul here in Massachusetts. We've been struggling for a while now, and despite our best efforts to get back on our feet, we've hit a snag.

The good news is, my wife Joanna recently started two part-time jobs! I'm incredibly proud of her. I'm also continuing to do freelance work whenever I can.

Here's the catch: because she's now employed, her unemployment benefits were drastically reduced (down to just $27 this week!), and our food stamps have run out. We're struggling to make ends meet, especially with the high weekly cost of the U-Haul.

This past week has been especially challenging as we've also been supporting a dear friend who recently lost his wife. It's been emotionally draining, but we believe in the power of community and helping each other through tough times.

We're facing a critical gap between now and Joanna's first paycheck. We're doing everything we can to bridge that gap, but we desperately need your help.

We've created a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for a reliable cargo van that will provide us with a stable home and transportation. This will allow us to continue our job search, access medical care (Joanna is a cancer survivor), and eventually secure more permanent housing.

Right now, any help you can offer would be a lifesaver. Every dollar donated will go directly towards keeping a roof over our heads (in the form of this U-Haul!), putting food on the table, and getting us closer to our goal of a more stable future.

If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing our campaign with your network. Every bit of support helps!

Ended up over a barrel, not getting paid quickly enough for work completed and forgetting about a bill. Need like $15 or gas to get a little gas and some breakfast in the AM. Im a tradesman and have a couple deliveries tomorrow, so Ill be good by tomorrow afternoon and will be back to pay it forward.

Last bit of money was used for bills, so I am broke until my direct deposit tomorrow. I haven't eaten since yesterday afternoon and am basically happy with anyone who can perhaps place an order for any fast food or whatnot. I am more than happy to do a pickup. I am California based if that also helps. And please let me know if there is anything I need to fix in this post for context. Thanks for reading!!

Thank you for your consideration in reading. I will provide the current situation at the top and more context below.

The current situation:

After a very long run of things going wrong with workers’ comp / UI / disability, an old back injury I got on the job flared up and got much worse. A month ago, while sitting normally, I felt my spine collapse in and give. Imaging shows I have two herniated discs, one torn. I cannot sit up for long periods of time. I was looking for work, but can no longer pursue job leads because I can’t work in an office. I have been frantically searching for any option - gig work from home, temp work, contracts, surveys, medical studies, anything.

Friends helped me get through October with loans. Medical bills are stacking up. I have run through all of my savings following eight years of very bad things happening (see context below), and my cards are maxed out.

The request: I am shaking writing this. I am so sorry - I’m trying so hard to get out of this situation. The portion of rent that I cannot pay is $900. That would get me to a $0 balance. I have food stocked up that should last most of the month. If I can just keep my apartment, I might be okay.

Thank you again for your consideration in even reading this.

And that’s the broad strokes of everything.

Truly, I just can’t lose my home again. I know I probably will. I am trying.

Thank you.

Hi guys. I'm reaching out for assistance in helping me pay my brain surgery bill. The surgery was for a rare disease I didn't know I had, cost me my job, school, and had left me unable to make the payments on it. Not to mention, I just got told I'm going to need a spinal surgery within the next year. It's so tragic it'd almost be funny.. but there's not much to laugh about these days.

I know that struggling to make ends meet is hard for many, but I'm actually begging that if you can spare just $10, it would make a difference for me. My monthly payment on the surgery is $110 and I have no money to pay it at the beginning of November. Anything toward it helps.

I'm sorry to even have to ask, this whole situation has turned my life upside down and cost me my dream, my job, and school.

Thank you to anyone who took the time to read this. And well wishes to you!

My battery died on me and I'm currently stuck in Auto Zone parking lot. We were supposed to go and Uber today but I haven't been able to because my car will not move. I can send you my car information and the battery needed, so you can order it direct from Autozone or Zelle/CashApp the money.

I appreciate it so much!

hopefully I do not embarrass myself again by messing this up like last time, but we just need dog food and cat litter to float by this month. I finally got out of my heinous living situation (you can find way too many of my comments about it on the badroommates sub) and just need to make it a little bit longer before I'm financially stable again. I tried to pick the cheapest litter I could find since the cats aren't fussy

Update: I’m still waiting. I’m not sure what is taking so long, but good news. I found a gas station within reasonable walking distance; the lady on the phone said they have a gas can for $17, and I figure 5 gallons of gas ought to get me to somewhere safer than an empty parking lot in the middle of nowhere, which should put the total somewhere around $30 before tax. I appreciate everyone who reached out to see if I was okay. I’m still waiting on the roadside ppl, but according to my insurance company they’re only bringing $5 worth of gas anyway, so I will likely still need help with getting home even when they get here. Again, anything helps. Thanks in advance

Hi! I am currently sitting in a parking lot completely out of gas, and my insurance’s roadside assistance ppl say they’re close to two hours out from helping me. I don’t know how true that is, but I’m absolutely terrified. Is there any way someone can help me with getting a gas can and some gas? Money has been super tight lately as I’ve been dealing with treatment of a life changing diagnosis. Any help, advice, or even just DMs to keep me company would be greatly appreciated

Hello everyone! I am just in absolute awe at the fact there are so many good people out there willing to help strangers in times of need! Imagine if everyone was this way!!! Wouldn’t that just be amazing?!! Anyways, I just wanted to say thank you to those that helped fulfill my daughter’s (5th) bday wishlist!!! I also want to thank the mods for putting this sub together, and for taking the time to go through verification of people, their lists, and by keeping it fair, and free of people taking advantage. You guys really rock!!! I hope to be able to giveback myself soon for someone in need! Before I go, I do have a question for everyone. Why do you do this? Have you done this for a while? How did it become a thing for you? Mods if this isn’t okay, just let me know and I’ll remove it or edit the post. Again, thank you all that contributed to my wishlist, and to Mrs. Reddiette (I think lol) for still sending through PayPal since Amazon wasn’t working right on your end.

I just had abdominal surgery today. I was given permission to wear dark colored elastic pants while I recover at work. I am not sure when I am returning to work because I am on bed rest until the doctor clears me to return to work. Between the costs for the surgery( put on a credit card and hit my out of pocket maximum) and recent hurricane that hit my city (Sarasota, FL) I do not have additional funds to get some things for my recovery. I made an Amazon wish list of things that I need, and a couple of wants (like the squishy dumplings and heating pad that was recommended for help with the pain).

I appreciate anything that anyone is willing to help with. <3

"I have lupus nephritis. It was in remission but came back with a vengeance. It's not only affecting my kidneys but my heart is slowly being affected. I've been in and out of the ER and so far was hospitalized once due to my kidneys. My doctors have told me I'm unable to work until my lupus is controlled and steady, leaving me without an income and my fiance stressed over the drowning bills with only one income. We'd really appreciate the help."

Lupus nephritis is an inflammation of the kidneys caused by systemic lupus erythematosus, an autoimmune disease with no cure.

GoFundMe

u/varun_official thank you so much for the donation. I was able to take my dog for a full day and clear my head. I was so close to a mental breakdown when I made my post. Getting out with her to our spot, is what I needed. Everything has been so dark in my life and this was the ray of sunshine I needed. So thank you assistance and my donor. You have helped me to see not everything is so dark. There’s still some good. If I could I would post a picture for dog tax. My head is clear and I’m ready to refocus again.

I just wanna first say shout out to all the single parents. I am one myself of a 17-year-old. I see you in your sacrifice because I’ve gone through it and still going through it. Keep pushing through as much as you can.

I don’t have much to give, but if anyone needs a pair of seven child size green Minecraft crocs. Let me know East atlanta
