I am a single father, I feel like the world has got a hate on for me. In one month I lost my wife, lost my job, and now I am here looking for help. We need food, we need our bills paid. I have a 4 year old son, and this is just not the life I had planned for him. I just need your gelp to get me out of this slump. The funeral, the hydro, the groceries, and phone, not to mention the rent. its just too much right now. I need some help until I can get the government funding for unemplyment. Please, anything you can do.

In 1998 I found my mother. I was born in Germany and given up for adoption. Our story hit the newspapers in December 1998 in Idaho. I was elated. In 2005 I left my job and moved to her town, believing there were many job opportunities there. I wanted so badly to be close to her. To make a long story short, she is not the person I dreamed she was and am now living in my van with my dog. I have had to get my SSI early, and do not have enough income to rent a place to live. I am willing to move anywhere for a job, but do not have enough travel money. I thought I didn't know how to be homeless, but it's amazing the steps a mind goes through to get accustomed to a situation. I can supply a resume upon request. Please help me. Thank you in advance

I am calling out for help because I need to finish my last semester of school and I am struggling with money for rent and food. I don't have many people in my life. I have a small family and my mother has passed 7 yrs ago when I was 18. My dad doesn't have much money either. I don't know how I will pay rent for the upcoming months let alone buy food. I would appreciate any help. 1,000 $ would be amazing but obviously I would be grateful for anything. Thanks for reading. Take care :)

Hello, I'm Eleanor and I am 28 and have had a VERY hard year, i lost both my mum and dad Barbara & Paul Fynn within 4 months of each other. My dad died suddenly of stomach cancer and my mum died of Diabetes. I lost the house then that they rented and I had grown up in for nearly 30 years. I have recently been made redundant in December, just 3 days before christmas and am struggling so much to now pay my bills and rent. I live on my own and am worried that I could, again lose the house i'm living in. I just don't know what else to do. I have no brothers or sisters so have no one to turn to and am worried I am about to become homeless, for the 2nd time in a year. I would greatly appreciate any kind of donation that will help me out. Thank you so much :-)

Hi, I'm new to this and also a tad embarrassed but i really need help towards my wedding on 29th feb 2012. I have recently taken on a 2nd bar job to try and help but I am now exhausted, i hardly see my children and with only less then 5 weeks to go we are still no where near the funds needed and stressing more then you could believe. we aren't having a big over the top wedding, we are being married in church and then a party in a pub hall afterwards but even the smallest of weddings mount up. You may think well you chose to do it, well yes but our main reason for getting married (other then loving each other) is for our children, so that they have a stable and together family life, with the security that marriage offers. Please any small donation would be greatly appreciated and once the wedding is sorted and finances stable I will be donating to others that need the help.
