So this isn't necessarily a sob story. I am a 23 year old Mexican and Black lesbian. Still living with my mother something I said I wouldn't b doing by this age. I am currently working right now making minimum wage. I am moving to California in January, given the world doesn't end on Dec. 21st. I will be living with a friend for a few months. So that was I can save up for a car nothing fancy. Something in the range of $2500-3000. I will also have to be saving for an apartment, because my friends house is small and everyone knows living wit friends doesn't last long. Once I have a car and a place to myself I will be starting film school in the fall. AKA going into major debt, because of student loans. So I am in need of a little help with saving. My mom is struggling with bills and rent its almost impossible to save. I won't be able to actually save any money until she finds a second job, which is hard because the economy sucks and no one is hiring. I would greatly appreciate any help you can give.

I have recently became single and my income had slowed down. I am behind on my lights, water and gas bills. I need some help getting back caught up and I will be grateful for anything that anyone can help me with. I am a single mom of two boys and expecting a baby in September. This site is really a last alternative for me. Maybe someone will have it in their heart to help a struggling family get back on their feet. Thanks you in advance, Singlemommy

Back in 2005 I quit my day job to start my own business. I tried for 4 years to grow it successfully until the economy took a downturn on me. I had to start using my credit cards and 401k in 2008 to help keep my business afloat. Dumb move on my part right? Starting in 2009-2010, I lost my car, my house and my business. I let pride get in the way. Over the past year I have been looking for a good job to no prevail. I am begging and asking for $400 dollars to help pay past due rent for October. I can even pay it back in about 3 weeks, as i have a contractor who is going to pay me for some side work. I just need a little help TODAY, so i can keep myself together with dignity with a roof over my head. Every $ is appreciated. Thank you and God Bless!

I am a father of a one year old little girl. I work with autistic children but that doesn't pay the bills. I need some money to pay the electric bill .... PLEASE HELP!!!
