My sister and her husband has been going through a rough couple of years financially. My niece is turning 7 soon and she has never gotten a "big" birthday present. I want to make this year special and different for her. I myself have to live according to a tight budget, but I've put aside of my money to throw her a party and her firends. She really wants a Ninento DS. So I'm here asking for kind people to help me with the cost of buying her a birthday present. Kind regards A

My car is broken and needs approximately £500 of work on it to have it running again. This may not sound like much to some but I have no available cash and no one to borrow from. Without a working car I will not be able to get to my work and it is quite a desperate situation. So a bit about me: I am a single mum to three boys (all under 10) in the UK. I seperated from their father in May last year as he could not cope with my medical situation. I have battled through cancer since February 2011. Thankfully I am now in remission and have been officially since June this year. The car problems are frustrating as I finally thought we were out of the black cloud..... The seperation and illness caused me to borrow. I am now paying the price for this through interest and repayments. This is why I have no spare cash. However, my job is providing enough to see this balance reduce very slowly each month. If you make a donation to me then it will go directly towards fixing my car. Fixing my car allows me to work and to continue to move myself and my children into normality again. Thank you for anything you can give to help us.

Hello and thank you for reading this. I'am asking for help here because I don't know where to turn anymore. My dear mothers car had broke down about six month's ago and I'am trying to help her out to buy something reliable. My personal health is very bad also and we are finding out that the medical bills are just about unaffordable. I have two part time jobs and don't make that much money at all. I have major medical problems that I have been battling since 1987. Chronic Hives which their still is no cure for. Just two month's ago I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis which is an Auto Immune Sickness that they also have no cure for. I have major Thyroid problems which I take 100 mcg of Synthroid but are unable to afford my medication. I also now have a big problem with my Bladder, Kidney, and Prostate because of the steroid medication I'am on for my Hives. The medication has caused me to have inflammation of my prostate gland. We are trying very hard to save every cent for a reliable auto so that I will be able to go to the many doctors I need to see. My dear mom also has very high blood pressure and is currently on three different medications to keep the pressure within range. We are asking you to please donate a few cents or whatever you feel comfortable with to help a mother and son out in this sad time that we are in. Thank You all for your kindness!

My daughter is a college student, and we were paying for most of her school. I had to take almost a 50% pay cut to stay working, and now we don't have the money to help her. We didn't qualify for enough financial aid based on my previous income level, and we are stuck in financial limbo until we can apply again. Please help us help our daughter finish school!
