I don't know if anyone even looks at these... I'm 27 years old and I have been struggling with debt for most of my life. I was one of those dumb kids that decided to get a credit card when I was 18 thinking that one day I will just pay it back. Well... I'm sure most people are aware of how this story goes. I don't have any kind of sad story as to why or how I am in this position other than just stupidity and naivety. I didn't finish college although someday soon I hope to go back but I've just been trying to get all my finances sorted out so I can feel like I can accomplish something. Debt is probably the second thing I worry about next to death. I would like to not be able to worry about money anymore and what bills I need to pay and if I will have enough. One thing I do know is that if I ever get out of my current situation I do want to do some type of humanitarian work. I have so many things I would like to do and helping those who are need is at the top of my list. If I could take care of myself first then I would be able to help others. So, I'm not disabled or have any sort of ailment, no children to take care of.... Just a single girl that is trying to get back on the right track and live the life that I was supposed to live. I've already taken steps a couple of years ago by cutting up those cards but with the interest rates and the monthly payments I feel like I'm never going to get out of it. By all means there are others that are in more need... but if I could get my situation resolved I would be able to help out and spread the wealth. Thank you, Heather

We are doing this for our little neighbor named Maya. She is 2 and half years old. She was born as a deaf due to some rare abnormality in her inner ears. She can't hear or speak. To recover, she needs a cochlea replacement surgery which costs $15,590 here in India. With the help of our residents association we have managed to collect $4,454. We are looking into all sorts of other sources. Each penny will help in a situation like this. We are waiting for the day when Maya can go and hug her mother when she calls her 'Maya....'

Been working for several years in pizza delivery, but I decided to quit and relocate to orlando to go back to school after getting a gun pulled on me on two seperate occasions and knifed in the hand. I haven't been able to find any other jobs for close to a year (and been looking), and I'm broke. I just need a little bit of help until financial aid kicks in. Thank you for helping me get back on my feet.

There has been a lot of natural disasters happening, the women's organization that I am in is trying to raise money for the people of Alabama. It hit them real hard and some of the families still have no where to go. Some of the ladies have children that are going to college down there, cousins, and other close family members. It would really mean a lot if we could raise a sufficient amount, and just put a smile on peoples faces. Thanks.
