Looking for help starting a small business.




Hello!! My name is Heather and I am a mother of three. I work full time and enjoy writing in my free time. I love what I do for a living but I don't feel like it's my "calling." I want there to be more to my life then just work. I am determined to find a job I love and see a little more of the world. I have begun the journey of blogging and free lance writing. I would love to eventually be able to write full time. For now I would just like to get my business started and off the ground.  That is what has brought me here today. I am looking for donations to start my business. I am currently saving to buy a laptop, camera, and to pay for the start up of my website. I am also looking into editing software if you have any suggestions. I am very grateful for any and all help I receive in trying to make my dreams come to reality. I am asking for 1,500 for start up costs. My PayPal account is paypal.me/xxlovely

Behind on rent and bills

Gabriel, PEI



I've tried this site before with no help in site. I've fallen behind on many bills because of a loss of employment and an expensive car fix that was needed about a month ago. I'm trying to get myself out on my own still, but if there is anyone who can offer assistance in any way please help me.

A Humble Heart Seeking Support to Rise Again and Rebuild




Hello I’m Ray, in my 50s, unemployed, and trying to overcome several setbacks to get back on my feet again. I’m here because I'm going through an unpredictably hard time in life. I’ve lost both parents, gone through a divorce, watched my daughter endure abuse, then recently suffer the loss of her husband to suicide.

Through it all, I’ve stayed strong - but now I do need help. I’ve been unemployed for over a year, and can't cover basics this month. I don't like to ask for help, but find myself in a position of need.

I need enough to cover rent, food, and basic expenses so that I can continue working towards employment, the cookbook, and a few other opportunities that will allow me to support myself.

What I need:

How donations will help:

  • $150 helps cover one month of groceries
  • $850 keeps the lights on and the rent paid for a month
  • $250 buys me two additional weeks to pursue a permanent solution

If you're able to donate even a little bit, or simply purchase the cookbook so you receive something in return, it would mean more than I can say. Then you can enjoy 350+ nostalgic recipes

If you read this far, thank you. Whether you donate, buy a cookbook, or just pass the link along - you’ve given me hope.

God bless you.
—Ray

If you can’t help, please share. Thanks for reading.

Bitcoin Malfunction




My story is as follows.. I have been a compulsive gambler for the past year. My losses this year total about 1200$-1500$, some of it being earned and dropped, some of it being directly lost. I lost my job about a month ago, and have less than the above amount in my bank. On my last gamble, I withdrew 30$ (.1 in bitcoin money) (https://blockchain.info/tx/ac3d8141ab1c9912d6fa617145dc691a35f73535669bab43f9e4d1c3e661a1c9). However, in the midst of massive HD failure, and since i was simultaneously giving this up, I could not remember my password to my wallet, which blockchain does not save. Yesterday, in order to try to make things better myself, I wasted 90$ trying to gamble in exchange for 30$. I would really prefer to stop it all, and not get sucked into debt. If you could help with the 30$ or 90$ or anything, it would be of great help to someone who is trying to return to the person they used to be.

Looking ahead & need assistance now, please!




Man with rough start needs a helping hand so can be looking ahead

Kind of a long story, so in college my high school sweetheart dumped me. Was unable to complete my initial college career. Went in and out of psychiatric hospitals being unable to cope or deal with this on top of my parents divorce. My parents continued to 302 me up until last year. Each time was sent to the hospital was unable to pay for bills, or car, or keep bank account balances in the positive. Each time after release to the free world, was hit with 2 months worth of bills from being unable to pay since they take your phone in those places, and can't work for cash when locked away. Looking ahead to freedom.

So today I'm 35,000 in credit card, student loan, and personal loan debt, plus a repossessed car for $13,250 to get the loan paid since the insurance lapsed while in the hospital and was unable to pay and the loan remains in collections.

My credit has been demolished to the point I can't even apply for a credit card or personal loan… even a debt consolidations loan, one that would clear all the reasons from keeping me from getting a loan, being… late payments, debt to income ratio, delinquency accounts, poor credit score to name the red flags. Looking ahead to 0 debt.

Please… if you read up till now, I would consider making an off this site contract with someone who is financially well off… my plea is that I receive $50,000 for debt pay off and car purchase, which will be used in a city setting for Uber and Lyft employment, in exchange for monthly payments back on the loan, if interest is of interest that is to be determined.

After college I worked at various restaurants, realize the pay was never going to secure me a life that I envisioned for myself.

One Summer day, outside taking a smoke break, crunched some numbers and decided taking student loans out now at the interest of eventually finding a job, in the line of work I love, making a difference, and earning a solid paycheck.

So went to a local community college part-time, 12 credits a semester, transferred 60 credits from my first trip to college. This was all during covid, 2016-2022. So my life was flipped at the end of the pandemic, went from having a family, college out of high school with straight A's, a girlfriend who was always hoped to be my wife. All that amazing, to, dumped by my only true love, parents divorced, dropped out of college, hospital visits, and a plague.

Seems like I could get back on track if I could only be helped out. Please any amount will go towards paying off my debts to ensure my future is still possible. Will you spare a kind young man a fair donation for his troubles, lesson learned… fight for your family cause they're the most important.

Don't be a stranger now, please reach out if you'd like to microloan me so I could at least get a car and insurance to get myself an honest living again. Looking ahead to better times. https://paypal.me/BobbyTReese
