Family in Financial Crisis
Joshua, United St
Hello, my name is Joshua Orcutt. I am 24 years old and have a beautiful wife and three children that are my world. I would do anything for them but due to a series of unfortunate events I am close failing them miserably.
I was working at the county jail as a correctional officer and one day another officer started using extremely unnecessary force against an inmate, who had done nothing to deserve that kind of treatment. So, I wrote a report about the situation and turned it into the sheriff. The next day I was called into work early and was fired when I arrived, while the abusive officer is still currently employed.
Due to this incident, which happened two days before thanksgiving, I was out of work for over a month. I have a job now but it doesn't pay much and I can barely afford my bill, much less catch up what I am behind. My wife is in school and is considering dropping out to get a full time job. I can't let her do that. Knowing she is getting her education has made her so happy. I can't let that be taken away from her.
Our house is looking at foreclosure, our car is in repossession status, a collection agency is contacting us about medical bills, We are being sued by a local loan provider, the IRS is wanting money from us for getting an ein for a business that we never officially started, and on top of all of that two of my children have grown out of their car seats and we can't afford new ones. Please help us, please.
