To raise money for a Home

A place that I can call Home, SC



Hello. I am a disabled mother caring for my adult son that have autism. I am trying to find a place where my son and I can call home. I located a piece of property in my small town for $18,000 dollars. It may not be the best, but it's an acre of land with a double wide mobile home. I am so tired of moving and dragging my son from place to place. I'm also tired of renting beaten down houses in neighborhoods with bad crime where my disabled son can't sit out in his yard and enjoy his surroundings, cause that is all he like to do. Before this piece of property is gone to someone else that really don't need it for a place to call home but for it to be used as investment property, I'm asking for help in raising this money to put a quiet roof over our heads. Thank you for your time and for the love.

Help with Electric bill

Hlinda0, SC



I am a 54 year old disabled single mother. I'm caring for my adult son that have severe autism. I got behind in some bills and my electricity is due to be disconnected soon. I know that I will be able to get back on track if I had a little help to pull myself back up on my feet. That's a bit difficult to do when you're living on a fixed income. I am not very proud of asking strangers for help, but my back is up against the wall and I don't know where else to turn. Any help that is give will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have recently list my job & my mom is on disability. Her check barely covers household costs & since my job had me living check to check, we are struggling to pay the bills. I'm a single mother, living at home with my mother who is blind. Our phone line was turned off yesterday & she needs to be able to call someone if she needs help. I have a smart phone luckily & my neighbors wifi is the only reason I'm able to be here asking for help. Any donations would be greatly appreciated! My daughter is 7 years old, top of her class & eager to go to the 2nd grade. I would like to buy her some new clothes & shoes if possible. Most of that will come from doing at thrift stores & goodwill. We have no bad spending habits, no useless bills, hell we haven't even had the luxury of cable in 6 years! :-( Please donate a dollar here & there, we shall be grateful to pay it forward. Thank you for your kind generosity! Sincerely, broke mommy, smart daughter & blind granny

Caretaker needs help starting life

Birdie, SC



Every day I see people my age getting married or landing great jobs. I want a good life too, but things didn't happen that way. I've lived with my grandparents my entire life. I've cooked for them, cleaned their house, organized their medicines and did everything else that they needed. Now, my grandmother is in a nursing home. My grandfather has cancer. I have no car and no job. Without a car, I can't get to the next town(where jobs are). On several occasions, I have been admitted to a hospital for depression. I now owe hospitals nearly $7000. I'm doing odd jobs on the internet for money, but I still need all of the help that I can get. I dream of getting a college degree and a normal life. Please send whatever you can. Every little bit will help.
