How Does Aidpage Work

hi there,

             my name is mike and i'm not sure if this is the place i need to explain my wifes wishes or not . my wife of 5 yrs now as of dec 6th/2008 has 4 major brain aneurisyms yes this is true. i personally a disabled and we are both on diability.. we are in london,ontario canada. my wife and i have been through alot with going to the hospital and appointments every year that we have forgotten to have any fun in our lives..

we both love each other very much and my wife has some wishes that i know are completely impossible for me to accomplish!

wish one is to have a pt cruiser. yes a car.

wish two is too have trailer part fees paid for so she can go camping.. 

now we have a campground in our city limits  which is fantastic but i cannot afford to grant her wishes.

if anyone knows what it is like for someone to have aneurisyms it is like some walking with a time bomb ready to go off..

my wife's life is not great and i know that someday she will evently die because of her situation and i will be devistated..

history: we met online she is originally from mexico where her mother beat her on a daily basis. her family has treated her terribly all her life . her father died in mexico from aides fooling around on her mother. she left mexico and landed in aylmer,ontario. where she met a man and married quickly because her mother had sent her to canada to set up a place for her and the family..the man she married turned out to be a very bad person and married her to cover up his own problem that he was gay.. which he didn't bother to tell her. then she divorced him after catching him in a hotel with another man. after that she met a man who she thought was nice but ended up using her for money and labour.. soaked her dry.. by the time i met her and took her away from all the situations she was in she had to go bankrupt.. good thing but not now she has no means of credit..i was in the same situation because of my ex as well and went bankrupt as well.. this is only part of the situation i could go on but to keep this short all i can say is because of our situation we cannot purchase or get any extra funds to grant my wifes wishes.. this is my one and only hope to help her i have tried getting credit but no hope..before it's too late..

all i want for my smart intelligent lovelly wife is to have what she always wanted before she dies.

thankyou for reading and god bless.

 i need some advice so i,m asking anyone that know anything about how to apply for a grant, with no money back, also where to apply please help me nookie 1956. i listern to anything you say.

My name is Garnett Martin and I have recently lost which should have never happened. My family is trying to work our way back up but it is difficult since wehave not been able to find jobs here in Greenfield Indiana. My fiance is getting ready to finish CNA classes and will be starting a job here in the next couple of weeks and I will be taking some phlebotomy classes here soon. We have four young children all 8 and under and we are getting some assistance for food and utilities but we are unable to find anyone that can help out with a van payment. Our van payment is almost 2 months behind and if we cannot come up with a payment of $454 by the 22nd of this month they are going to repossess the van. We cannot afford to have this happen because then I will not be able to travel to take my classes and my fiance will not be able to travel for the job she was looking at taking. This is such a mess and I am in very dire need so if there is anyone out there that could possibly help I would very much appreciate it. My phone number is 317-318-9121 and I am home just about all the time so please if any one can help please contact me in the next couple of days.

sometimes all we need is a shoulder to "cry" on, and someone to empathize or maybe someone to pray with or for us. I wouldn't call it a pity pit, more like venting arena and the hope that there may be some information that will help

its the love of money thats the root of all evil...and thats where our country is people will do just about anything for money even hurt others...its terribly sad but our government is the same

I feel for your family. Maybe your brother could live with a relative or a friend. Then he wouldn't have to pay for rent. If the children's mother is deceased the children may be able to collect social security benefits. Check out hud. gov maybe your brother can qualify for section 8 housing. This will help pay for a portion of his rent. They may even be able to find him a less expensive place to live. Community Action agency might be able to recommned places to help out with food. There are federal grants that social services are given to assit with electric and heating bills. I hope that this information has helped. God bless You! God's Helper

I would like to introduce the Wilson Family, Michael, Dawn, Amy, David, Emalie and Madyson.  Michael is just recently home from a 15 month tour to Iraq.  This was their third tour in 4 years.  Dawn is a stay at home mother of 4 wonderful children, she suffers from an autoimmune disease.  She is always in pain, someday worse than others, but none the less she still takes care of her family.  Amy is a full time college student and works two jobs.  David is a high school student, he runs track and is very active with the Boy Scouts of America (he just received Life).  Emalie is a pre kindergarten student; she is an active little girl with none medicated ADHD. She loves horses and wants to ride them.  Madyson is a miracle baby; she was born at just 26 weeks gestation weighing in at 3lbs 2ozs and 15 inches long.  As with most premature babies Madyson suffers from some slight lung issues.  She is on 2 daily inhalers through the winter months and just one during spring, summer and fall.

Two years ago they moved into a beautiful, 4 bedroom farm house that sits on approx. 35 acres located at 409 S. Liberty Troy Illinois that is owned by a family member.  The property has recently gone up on the market and is set to go up for auction in August 2008; they desperately want to stay on this property but can not afford the asking price of $490,000 on their own.  Dawn has spoke many times about if they could stay on the property in the house she wanted to utilize about 10 acres total of the property (including the land the house sits on) wanting to put in a great big garden, 1 or 2 dairy cows, and some chickens.  With the Economy the way that it is she wants her children to know that there are other ways to live, natural ways.  There is so much I could tell you, but you would have to hear it from her to understand where her heart is.  Being out here has given so much to their family.  They are much closer; Dawn and Madyson are much healthier.  When they first moved out here Dawn weighed 230 lbs and her pain was so bad we were lucky to get her out of bed three days a week and Madyson was always sick with breathing problems.  Now Dawn weighs 179 lbs and is very active with the children. She is in less pain and eating healthier, as are the children.  Amy, David, Emalie and Madyson are very happy here, they have a very healthy and rich relationship with each other and also with their Mother and Father.  This health and happiness, that so many long for, is about to be torn out from under them.  PLEASE DO NOT LET THAT HAPPEN.  If there is anyone out there that can help the Wilson’s please contact them at the following

Thank you,

Family of the Wilson’s

thanks for this explanation

maybe you can put it on a FAQ sheet or something. I haven't been in  since I created the page and I am more lost than a tourist on a strange street in a foreign city. I am also incredibly bad at social networking because of the time and expense involved with the internet and admit it. I  come into the internet only for work purposes and so the email messages coming into me  totally confused me.

I lost all bookmarks and my entire internet network in the last computer crash along with many, many years of work, so there was little way to track back and daily life  is just overwhelming-- so I wish to thank you for this explanation and for your page, because they are  both welcoming.

the grand announcement, "this site  s-x"  rather hit me in the face after 17month absence, but it reflects the attitude and demeanor of the person and not the site itself.

I have to go now. I never get the day's work done that I set out to do and life is very precarious as normal. I will try to find out a little moe in future, but internet is really very overwhelming force to me.  It makes me feel very vulnerable and exposed and a  grain of sand in the ocean.

 I feel guilty for absence, but I was absent from internet fror nearly the year because of stress and poverty. I'm crazy like an ant or bee-- when disaster hit my life and destroys the work I've done, then I just start working all over again in the midst of the catastrophe--and I just work around the clock. It seems stupid and mindless, but it's the nature of the insect.

So my thanks for the  clarification and notes to offeset the crass remarks I discovered on re-entry. 

I will try to return, but I get mental fatigue just opening my email box. So many people in such desperate need... fills my heart with incredible sadness  for all of them.

Hi Keith,

    I'm depressed Donna.  I have been in your shoes more than once.  The first time the bank took my house because I didn't know my rights.  There was more equity in the house than what we owed on it.  I am now divorced, my 3 children are grown and on there own..  I was working at a hospital as a cardiology tech. when I lost my job due to my depression.  It's a long story.  I was 4 months behind on my mortgage.  I called the bank and we worked things out.  They modified my loan, added the past due amount, stretched it to a 40 year loan and gave me a 4% interest rate.  Banks don't want your house.  They have enough of them with the housing market the way it is.  I too tried to end it all.  It is so overwhelming.  I am 50 years old.  I had to sell my car so I don't even have transportation.   I live out in the boonies.  My electric bill is up to $3220.  They put a lien on my house.  Apartments are more than my mortgage payment.  On June 5th it will be 4 years since I have worked, driven a car, or have gone outside other than my doctor's appts. and I miss a lot of those.  My internet is going next.  I hate to see that go.  It is my only connection to the outside world.  I feel terrible for you because I know how hard it is and the older you get the harder it is to find a job.  If you haven't talked to the bank about modifying your mortgage, try it.  All they can do is say no.  I wish the best for you.  Donna

Hi River311, 

There are 3 sections in "My messages".

When you browse Aidpage, there is a counter in your header showing a number of unread messages. This counter shows the number of messages that are directed to you and need your attention and reply. These messages are displayed in the first section on the "My message" page. They can be:

• a private one-to-one message to you
• a comment on a page that you created
• a direct reply to a comment you left on any other page.

About each of these messages (in the first section), you are getting an email alert with a subject line similar to this one: You have a new message on Aidpage from John!

Now, you are also getting periodic email notifications (about once a day) with a subject line like this: 3 items since May 1, 2008 in "My messages" on Aidpage! These emails are like a digest telling you about all the messages and posts for the period - including those that are displayed in the second and third sections of "My messages"... So, the number you see in the subject line of this email digest reflects the total of posts (from all the three sections).

The posts listed in the second and the third sections are not necessarily messages directed to you - they are shown there so that you stay informed about the activity on pages under your control (second section) and on pages that may be of interest to you (third section).

We are alawys looking for ways to make things easier and I'm sure that we'll make My messages easier to use. It is only a question of time.

I am the young mother of two small children who both have health issues, one is blind, one has bad asthma and is in the hospital A LOT! 

I was laid off the last time my child was hospitalized because I missed nearly a month of work to be by his side. I am now only temping, but looking for full-time/perm work asap but have had zero luck after many many many interviews.

Both of my parents are deceased and my only sibling passed from terminal illness, so I dont have family besides my children. I dont have anyone I can borrow from or talk to about my sorrow at this time. I really feel so alone and hopeless, but I guess when it rains, it poors, right?

I keep telling myself that THIS TOO SHALL PASS, but it never does.

I know there are people out there worse off then I am, but right now I am a couple days away from being with no home, lights, food, or anything for that matter.

My rent is late, I have about 30 percent of my rent but that is all, my utility bill is due and being shut off in 6 days and I have very little of anything to dig us out of this hole right now. I keep praying and praying, so bad that it hurts, but it still doesnt get better.

Anybody out there? please help me and my babies

God Bless you all

Is this a housing court order to pay the $800 into the court for past rent, or is it the landlord forcing you to pay the $800 or be evicted?

What State do you live in? In Minnesota, and most Midwest states allow the eviction if it first goes through the proper course through the housing court. Here in Minnesota, a landlord cannot focibly evict a tenant without going through court to get a judgment order to evict.

Contact your local housing attorney at legal services or a non-profit organization in your community that deals with landlord and tenant laws.

I don't think your landlord can kick you out for not paying the rent after 25 days. I know that Minnesota law doesn't permit it unless there is a risk of damage to the property or until there is an an unlawful detainer filed in housing court after there was a court order to remove yourself after an eviction proceeding.

I do not know what State you live in but contact your housing law librarian or attorney services for the poor. They will direct you to the help in your area.

Please check this out and contact your united Way or Salvation Army for financial assistance.

I have  a question for you whether your father served in any branch of the military services. If he did serve at least 180 days in active service, then he should qualify for burial benefits. Call your local Veteran's Administration to get the ball rolling.

Your father's probate proceeding should recover your father's assets before anyone claims a lien on it.

Contact your legal services office for free questions you have about your financial difficulties.

Hi,

I'm getting desperate. I was let go from a very well paying job in april of last year, I managed to keep everything current until my unemployment ran out. I had a highly technical and skilled Job in a manager role at a Major corporation. I was let go due to a reduction in workforce. I'm in Ohio.

I keep getting told I'm over qualified, I'm willing to do any kind of work but to get any type of Government assistance to save my home I must make at least 718 net per week I'm 2 months behind on my mortgage nearing 3 payments are  1400 per month now have a wife and 2 kids 19 &17. I was the sole provider, my wife cant make enough to get us through this, she dosent even have a GED. It will take at least 6000 to save my home. I know they will file any day to take it.  

I've been trying to start my own business, I'm a Computer Security Expert but people only want to hire the kids these days. I have a good track record with work and never dreamed this would happen. I feel worthless. I even went to apply for welfare, and take food from some of the food banks to feed my family. I want to work! I apply everyday and was just turned down today for a low level help desk position, they said my qualifications were excellent but were not a match. I think they think I'd move on when something better comes along. Thanks to the tax refund I've been able to help keep things going another month (without paying mortgage) I just don't know what to do, I could and have been approved to go get a degree but I'm 40 and will lose everything before even starting school. I know how to protect companies and people from ID theft and would love to help educate parents on how to help protect their kids on the net.

Can anyone give me some advise, I think All hope is lost, heck I can't even get a job at a MCDonalds too overqualified. Tried Retail stores but again they want the kids. I have been trying everything, I have thought of ending it all but I have my wife of 22 years to think about and my 17 year old girl. Son can't even pay his own bills at 19 and he works as a stocker.

To top it all off my back was injured 2 years before my termination on the job I was working so I have some physcial limitations, even when I try to hide them they can see me walk in with a limp. Tried temp services and everything and I have professional certifications to prove I know what I'm doing with computers, I just suffer with the pain as BWC is trying to even cut my access to medication, I have a wworkmans comp lawyer but he is doing all he can to try to help. no luck yet and I think it will be too little to late if he can help. I'm even willing to travel upto 90% of the time if I have to. I see these people at OJDFS that dont even want to work, I DO.

 Any advice is greatly appreciated, I don;t want sucked into one of the scams out there that will take the little I have left (not much at all since unemployment year ended and they give me nothing now) 

HI my nane is joann and i need help my dad died on the 31 of last month and i spent my bill money to go to his funeral and help pay for it . now im behind on phone, cable ,mortgage can anybody help.i didnt know with funerals you have to pay up front you cant make payments and money was already tight since work cut our hours.

i need some help for home repairs - i am literally looking underneath the house in the bathroom! i was told that the joists underneath the bathroom are rotted and need to be replaced.  Of course, my homeowners insurance does not cover it...so i am really stuck. me and my granddaughter are staying with my sister and our mother in their apartment. i work at a call center so i don't make anywhere near the money necesary for this repair. i barely managed to hold on to the house last year but i did! i would appreciate any help i can get!! this is the first time i have ever tried this - actually, i never heard of this website before - i found it by accident surfing on google for loans. i tell you, this would be a real miracle to me if someone could help me.

I will pray for you . I understand completely.  Have you been to court for an eviction yet? If not you still have some time. All I know to offer in advice is contact your welfare office and get help and get a list for resources for utility help and ask a friend if you and your daughter can stay with them for alittle while. I would offer to clean thier house and cook for them in return for a roof over my head. If you have no money at all or a job, you can usually get emergency foodstamps at your local welfare office. I will pray for you. God Bless

i need help i will help u get a job here in tuscaloosa al it's over 400 jobs available here

I need help. I'm a single mother of 2 little girls who works really hard to try to make ends meet. I just found out yesterday that I have until Friday to pay $800 or I will be evicted and I have nowhere to go. I have no food for my kids and only have about $4 in my pocket which isn't going to get me far with gas prices. My electric and cable are also getting ready to be turned off. I am willing to pay back with interest if necessary just to get out of this situation and not have to move my children to a shelter. Please someone help me.

Does this method of aid really help and how long does it take to receive assistance?

I like this idea.. I think it needs to be developed a bit more, but just think if only a small number of people gave only $1 a day or a week what a huge difference that could make in so many peoples lives.  I think if we all cut back on our Latte's from Starbucks one day a week that's like $5 right there.  I'm putting together a website with this very concept.

my friend is 76 years old going through a divorce he has been left with nothing, he can barely afford to keep a roof over his head and he has no car to get to the veterans hospital ,work, or grocery store i am trying to find him help to get a car i would by it for him myself but i dont have the financial means to do so.  

Hello sheri,

   We were away from the pc but we received your message.  First we would like to say we can't believe how someone in your situation thought to even comment back much less offer our family clothing.  God bless you!  And yes we would love the clothing and if your church cannot ship the items then maybe we could pay for the shipping?  How much do you think that is.?  Were suppose to receive an income tax return some time within a few weeks  (most would go towards bills but we would love to send you something for your kindness as soon as we receive it.  We have 3 girls and two boys.  Our eldest daughter is 18 and expecting soon and goes to college part time right now so any baby items are needed as well.  The ages are as follows     18, 17, 16, 14, 11  sizes 8to10 are perfect.  I do not know about the sz0 however could an 11 yr old where this?  She is really tall for her age and can wear a size 7 or 8 in teen clothing.   I should have said any thing that can be sent used or not is great with us.  I suppose even food as long as it is still in date.  THat is a great idea.  Thank you for your reply                     We will pray for you and your daughter as well.                Texfamily  

I have women sizes 8 to 10 and  baby clothing if that will help. also some teen (girl) sizes in I think zero's.  I am in my own tramitic situation however if it will help you, I will take them to a church and see if they would pay to ship them.  Let me know.

Hello

My family is in serious need of help.  We pay all our bills but it is difficult to get food, clothing for our children.  I can honestly say that no matter what we do we never can get enough food. Welfare says we make to much money!!  I can't believe it.  We went to food pantry's and though give very little for a family with 7 persons and 5 of those are children!  Our living expenses could not be less. We have one vehicle as we can't afford two and gasoline is so high that we can't go anywhere that may eat up our way to work. There are absolutely no extras.  We couldn't even buy a package of hamburger this last paycheck.  I do not know what else to do.  We looked for cheaper living but there are none cheaper than this!  The children clothing is embarressing and there is nothing I can do about it.  If anyone could help with say and food cards or clothing cards we would be blessed more than you will ever know and we would be very appreciate of anything that could be done.  You may email me at  texfam@live.com if you have anyquestions .  Bless everyone here!

I am a mother of three kids one has asbergers syndrome and doesnt due well with cahnge that is why i am looking for some assistance and for my other children as well so they dont freeze. we recently had to put our house up for sale as a short sale because we ended up with o laon that the payment was too high that we cuoldnt make our payments with all of our other bills we had before ever getting the home and then to top it off we were fruaded by a company promising that they could get us a loan and that all's we had to do is pay an insurance fee of 4,500 that we didnt have so they told us to go get some payday loans and then we could just pay them off with our loan they would be giving us.. well that never happened they took us for a ride.. and left us with payday loans to pay. Now this payday my husband had his whole paycheck confiscated from one of the payday loans that we owe. and we are now about to lose our van because we are behind 1589.00 and if we dont pay that then we will be loseing it and it is the only reliable vehicle we own. then our gas bill we have to pay 459.00 or they will shut us off. our electric bill we have a payment arrangement and we have to pay 173.00 by april 3 2008 or it will go back to the past oweing due in full of 756.00.  my city bill i owe 179.00 or they will shut off my water. and we have let all of our other bills go to get this far with our bills. our other loan people are ready to take legal action if we to dont get caught up right now. please if anybody knows of any help or that can get me out of this situation please help asap they can email me at catanab1@yahoo.com Thanks kitkat2

This is my first message, so please bear with me.Hi, my husband is very sick and we are searching for some money to help us with these extremely difficult times.  He has not worked for a couple months due to his health.  We have 2 daughters who attend school, ages 10 and 8. I am also attending college but may not be able to finish due to husband's health. I have faith in God and I do believe that miracles do happen for those who believe and trust in Him.  We know there is a way.  We can not afford to pay for someone to help us.  We have zero income and we need help.  Our children want to help, but they can only do so much.  My husband is in his early 50's and his health is not very good, we want to make him as comfortable as possible and be able to provide for any extra needs that may arise. We have applied for SSI but have heard nothing. Currently I an not employed, because I am caring for my husband and attending school.  Is there someone who can help us make our lives better, at least for our children.  I am in my early 40's and my children need me along with their dad.        Some one please help us, we would be eternally grateful to any assistance that we receive.  Thank you and God Bless You!  You can contact me at anna.paris1@gmail.com

Hi

Iam in need of financial help, i have three childrens for giving them good education food and shelter i need help. if any one can help i will be great full to you.

hi all i don't know how this really works but i'm so desperated now. i'm 61/2 moths pregnant and lost my job 01/01/08  new years. great my husban right now works but his job only pays him 260 a week and has a second job partime 50 a week problem was we had 3 deaths in the family and our bills just went behind we owe over 900 for gas, 700 for light, car loan 550,1300 behind rent  i've been very i'll with my pregnancy and well when we try making a payment for something something else goes wrong. i can tell in his face his frustation this morning he had to go and look for coins everywhere just to make $5 for gas. we both believe in god very much and i pray so much to god but i see no aswer. we just need help now and i know we will be just fine..... i tried applying to get a job(i have a great resume) and no one calls me i think i due to my big belly..... i just wanted to share this. i have no food in my fridge i feel terrible and we don't even have eggs to i can make him breakfest,i'm devasted.

hi im in a serious predicament right now. i  really need to know if anyone has a car tha i could rent from them for two month (june & july) it would help me out alot. i live in houston texas. Thank You

What rank are you & your husband?

To All Here,

I think this is an amazing forum.  And I believe I have an interesting prospect for a predicament that I know is not unlike a lot of others.  My husband and myself are both in the military stationed at Fort Lewis, WA.  We were forced to move here when I came down on orders.  This is more than common in the military and it is to be expected.  Anyway, we have a house in Florida that we have been struggling to pay for ever since the move.  We have had a more than hard time keeping renters in the property and have been unable to hand the property over to a real estate agent that could manage the property because we didn't have time to move everything out of the house before we moved.  We have thought about selling the house but fear that we would lose money in the market that exists today.  So, what I am suggesting here is that everyone that reads this entry and feels compelled to do so, donate a dollar to our cause and forward this on so that their friends can donate as well.   Or donate what you see fit and what you can afford.  I don't normally ask others for help; however, I am quite desperate at this point.  I consider myself an average hardworking American and pray that the economy will turn around before we end up losing our house.  In return for all kind gestures I promise that when we are more financially stable, we will pass the gesture on to others.  Sincerely, Gina Petrelli

Hi everyone.

I still do not have a job and I still have no income coming in for March. I do not know how I going to pay my bills or my car payments or my health insurance so I can continue getting treatments for Cancer and I do not know how I am going to pay my rent.

Is there anyone out there who can help me.

Please let me know

Thanks 

Hi everyone lets see if we cant round up a small group and make donations. Even if we each take turns and give 1-5.00 to each other a week, that can help us all out. Im falling in my rent and business bills to the tune of 1200.00.. And I think this would be a good way to help each other. If we have a dedicated group of 200 people ore more and each keep putting in 1.00-20.00. And we all keep in touch to make sure everyone is helping ...wonders can happen. Anyone that wants to start a self help raise of funds group contact me connormacleod001@aol.com. Together we can make a difference. We can also exchange numbers so we can talk as a group. Though aol buddy chat might be easier and cheaper.

Hello, I never thought I'd be on a site like this asking for help, however, desperate times call for desperate measures. My friend told me about this site so I thought I'd check it out. FIrst let me explain my situation; I am recently divorced, have two children, both boys whome I love to death. I am a SSG in the U.S. Army, I've been deployed to Iraq in support of Iraqi Freedom twice and I'm now stationed in San Antonio TX.  My story is not as bad as others on this site and I know others need help much more than I do. In fact I'm very embarrassed to be in a situation where I would have to ask others for help in the first place. I know my situation is my own fault, a lot of bad decisions and bad money managment. I got married very young, got over extended in credit, and a long story short I had trouble repaying my debts and have very bad credit (580). I am in extreme finacial difficulty and can't get a loan. While deployed my wife left me for another man and served me divorce papers shortly after my second deployment. She was granted custody of the boys and I pay 1100/month Child Support.  As it was I was barely to meet my rent, truck payment, groceries and utilities. I was keeping my head above water untill I was transfered to San Antonio. I had to take an advance pay, to move because I could not get a loan and could not afford it other wise. Setting up a new apartment was a huge expense and now on top of repaying the advance I received,  my pay is going to be garnished on the 1st of march for a bill I owe. I am now almost two months behind on my truck payment (590/month) and will not have the money  on the 1st of March to pay my rent (765/month) or my truck pmt. I do not know what I'm going to do, I know I have gotten myself into this situation, I just don't know how to get myself out. I just need some financial help on the 1st of march so that I can pay my bills, and get on top of my situation, and hopefully start fresh on trying to repair my financial situation and my llife. If I can get help with this month I should be able to recover next month. I get paid on the 1st of every month.  I hope someone reading this can understand my situation and offer some help. Thank you

I just want to say that i poor but I can only offer you my friendship and support as counselor \companion. pls  feel free to write :manoemohan@gmail.com

Why did I jump in when I know I can’t swim?

It’s 3 am and I’m about to lose everything . . .

My car . . . the place I stay . . . I only have enough food for two days.

Thank God Ramen Noodles are only 15 cents and a box of crackers $1.50 . . .

I reach out my hand for help only to see an ocean of people reaching out like me.

I scream; “Help me!  I can’t swim!  Please save me!”

Then I look over and see the single mother pregnant with another crying for help . . .

The family who moved into their dream home and are now losing it crying for help . . .

The father of three who spent all his money on hospital bills for the one that’s very ill crying for help . . .

The disabled woman who can’t afford to live off her small disability check anymore crying for help . . .

The college student who can’t pay their tuition, but has the desire to learn crying for help . . .

The former business executive that just lost his job and can’t find another crying for help . . .

The talented youth who moved to a big city on a dream, but now can’t afford a bus ticket home crying for help . . .

The retired teacher who spent years in service, but now can’t pay their gas bill crying for help . . .

And so on . . . and so on . . . and so on . . .

I put my hand down, Maybe I should just drown because after all I’m just one woman who jumped in knowing I couldn’t swim . . .

My story is simple . . . let’s call me Jane . . .

See Jane dream . . .

Jane runs after her dream . . .

Jane meets Sam who dreams big too . . .

Sam says, “let’s cross the ocean to the land where dreams grow wings . . .”

Jane responds, “but I can’t swim?”

Sam says, “don’t worry.  Someone will bring us a boat.  Trust me.”

Jane says, “I’ll always be stuck on the land of no opportunity if I don’t try.”

Jane jumps in the water.

Four months later Sam’s boat hasn’t come and you can only tread water for so long . . .

She sees Sam doing his best to hold on too and he tries to encourage Jane. . .

Jane is now facing reality . . .

“Sam is a big dreamer like me . . . with no boat . . . just the promise of one . . .”

Jane begins to drown.

Jane asks for help on the internet.

A man responds to her internet cry for help and Jane feels hopeful;

Until he says, “Just give me all your information, including your bank account . . .Then I will send you two boats . . . . All you have to do is put both boats in your name and send me one back . . .Then you can keep the other boat for free!”

See Jane get very annoyed.

She sees the holes in his boat and wonders why he would scam a woman already drowning.

See Jane realize life is hard while she starts to tread water again, hoping only in her God . . .

There are people out there who can help . . . but how do they pick from so many drowning people?

Anyway, who can say that once we are rescued . . .  we won’t jump in again? 

I’m posting this with the reality that Superman/woman is not out there waiting to rescue me from the bad situation I put myself in; but at least I can ask.  Here’s what happened.  I left my job in September to work for a man with a small entertainment business.  We had been working on music project together (which is still in process) and I was impressed with his talent. 

He was robbed the first week I started and the thief took his recording equipment worth thousands of dollars.   I decided to stay working for him, because he is brilliant when it comes to production and I believe in him.  I received one check in October (that’s when I paid Septembers rent) and haven’t been paid since . . . we are both struggling. 

He keeps telling me money is coming, but so far . . . well it hasn’t.   I haven’t paid my rent since October ($2,000 past due including this month), car bill ($1,800 past due), car insurance, credit cards, cell phone (it’s been cut off now for weeks), etc.  My credit went from okay to very bad.  My bank account is overdrawn (from my car company trying to withdraw funds that were not there . . . $30 x2) and I have $4 to my name.   

This is a shot in the dark because I know America is struggling right now and like I said . . . many have there hands out asking for help right now.  I can prove everything I’m telling you and would appreciate it if you can offer me assistance.  I only have until the end of this month before I am evicted and sooner than that I’ll be without transportation. 

Thanks for reading this.

Dear Anybody,

I just don't know what to do anymore..

This is the first time I did this and I wish I am the one helping right now.

But I really need help my salary is just not enough to cover my bill..My rent is$1250, Car payment is 2 months delayed already $900.00 I have to send remittance to my parents & daughter to Philippines $500.00 a month, my utilities is close to $300.00 and my car insurance is already cancelled..

I am working so hard, I am just not sitting and begging people but life is really hard, I haven't seen my family for 2 years now because I can't afford to buy the ticket.

Please help me..

I promised that once I get better financially I will do the same with other people..

Thank you very much and God Bless you

NeonLadee:

I really want to thank you for your referral. Right now I am in such constraints financially.  A friend of mine referred me to this website and then I came across your referral. 

Thanks be to God for all of his working angels in the world.  I am believing God for a miracle.  I'm two months behind in my rent, my lights are on shut off notice and I have one last payment on my car, but I've received noticed on that too.

My birth mother pass away on Thanksgiving and my daughter and I could not even afford to go say out last good byes. 

So now if the time when "we walk by faith and not by sight".  This is the time that I truly understand the "footprints" in the sand.  Again, thank you for your resource referral and I hope  all who seek shall find.

 Stay blessed!

Hi Everyone that reads this:

I would like for everyone here to go to this website its called

www.modestneeds.org. They require you to submit information ob your needs and see if you qualify for one of their grants. If you qualify and they require you to "scan" the info and send it to them, they will give you the money and its free. You just have to be precise on what it is being used for. So please everyone try it and hey! Let me know how it works. They have helped me with my rent twice and I was not evicted and the thing about it you can apply more than once and you WILL get it if you submit exactly what you need it for. Please try it and u will C.

Hi Nanajoann,  Check out liveops.com.  I have a friend who has worked from home for them for a few years. 

The only start up cost was the criminal back ground check which I think was about 12 dollars and a dedicated phone line only for the incoming calls.  I believe they are hiring in all States now. 

You do need the right equipment, meaning a computer with x amount of memory etc.. a headset etc.. They have you take a voice recorded interview on the phone and you take a few test on line..you can study all you want.

Once you do all this you are ready to start receivng calls. You sign up for 30 minute shifts anytime day or night.  These operators take calls for various infomercials, calls and during Hurricane Katrina they helped people and families find each other. 

The bottom line is it is for real. You don't make a great deal to start but when you get better and better you can add bonus money by asking the caller if they wish to add various items to their orders....It's not hard selling, remember the people are calling you about a product they are interested in.  I do hope this helps.  If you are an outgoing people person and have a good phone voice you will probably do just fine. 

Blessings, Whitebird33

Hello Nana Jo. This is Ryan. I don't know 100% what you are looking to do, but if you are looking to do some internet business that DOES NOT COST you a penny to get setup..go to:

http://www.eisencorp.com

Now..on the left hand side where it says "Directory Search" go ahead and click on that. That will take you to a "FREE" online mall in which you can signup and make a percentage of sales off of it. The commission amounts are listed there as well. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi All!

   Does anyone know of a legitimate work from home business that DOESN'T ask for money to start you to work? I ahve many marketable skills but must work from home at this time. Please let me know of any such business or person looking for a good, hardworking, honest, employee.

                                                        Nana Jo

Hai,

 You may not like my mail or reply to you because I have not replied to say that I am ready to help but to let you know that even I am in one such situation like you... but just wanted to say do not give up, Never, wait eveything will be fine.

Hello, I have gotten in a huge jam.  I moved to a new state a month ago with the offer of a job from a very well  known company in the country.  I allowed a moving company to move my stuff across country because I could not tow my vehicle behind a moving truck because it was too large, they would not let me.  Once my stuff was put on the moving truck and drove away, they raised the price by $600.  Now they have had my stuff for one month and I can't afford to get it back.  I have no furniture.  I have no chair, couch, bed, dresser, nothing except my TV, computer and clothes that I was able to fit in my vehicle when I drove here.  I have no means any time in the future to be able to get my stuff back, nor of course to buy new stuff to replace the old.  I have been living in an empty apartment for the last three weeks and see no end to it.  I have no idea what to do now.

Cindy

Hello I am a father of 6 kids. I am in the military so I do not make much money. my wife does not work because she would only work to pay for day care. We have had a rough time this year, we are not able to give our children a Christmas. we will only be able to have Christmas dinner. My children's ages are as follows: 16-Dtr. 13-Son. 11-Son, 10-Dtr, 3-Twin Boys.  I dont think I can handle them waking up Christmas morning to nothing. If any one knows any help availible please let me know.

I too am having trouble buy ing Christmas for my 3 children. I would be grateful for any help you can afford. I work but it takes all I make to pay the bills and keep a little food on the table.

                                        Please help

i have contacted all them people and no body is helping,in baton rouge,kim,and kids

You are so right.  Since is great advice.

To find out about group homes in area, one can contact the local mental health center.  Ask to talk to a casemanager or social worker.  They should have a listing of business/providers that have these.  One could also contact social services/department of human resources as well. 

Nursing homes often have jobs for cna/orderlies.  Even if you are not a cna (certified nursing assistant), still inquire.  Alot of nursing homes have programs that offer certification on the job or training.  Now, the work can be hardwork.  However, it is a job and it beats starving and one can pay their bills.

best wishes

I just stumbled along this site.  Seems pretty good.  Here is my situation. 

I am married with 5 kids ranging from 2 years old to 14 years old.  We both have jobs presently thankfully.  Three years ago, I was in a business deal that went bad and we find ourselves in about 290,000 of debt.  We are struggling to pay monthly bils and hope we can hang on to our house.  It is very frustrating at times but God continues to provide for us. 

If anyone knows of any financial programs that do not make things worse let me know.

Do you have any dental coverage? Do you qualify for free dental? If so, then you should call around to see what dentist accepts your insurance. If you do not have insurance, then you should apply for dental and go from there. Good luck & Best wishes.....hang in there.....the world is not a perfect place, and all our worries will not be solved in one night.

Quick Jobs!!!

Often overlooked are the jobs in the home health industry such as:

Caregiver

Home Health Aid

Group Homes.

 These places have high turn over rates, are always looking for new people, and they train you or qualify you if you need it. They pay for that and they don't care if you are male or female. So if you want a quick job (that also happens to be high stress) then look into these jobs. We had 2 group homes in my area I didn't even know about when someone told me about them. Now I have gone from an unemplyed student grad to a full time plus overtime-getting the bills paid-person. 

You have to look to find them though. But once you do, you can quite often be working in a few days to a couple of weeks. IT's worth it, even as a temporary measure while looking for something in your field. 

Yes I know you can report them on freecycle but that happened from craigslist. They taje no responisiblity for things that happen. I haven't given up yet. I still have faith something will happen before Christmas! God Bless!! Thank you!

If that individual is a participant in Freecycle, you can report them.  I do not know if Craig's list has similar reporting contact.  It is sad, but you will run into some inconsiderate people from time to time that lack the courtesy to follow through or notify you of a change in their plans. But that does not mean that all participants on either site are that way.

Yes I have tried both. I had 1 respond to me, went to meet them and they never showed. When I called they hung up on me. I didn't think it was funny but apparently they did. Thank you though and Happy Holidays!

dear concerned reader, im not sure exactly how this works...but if there is anyone out their who could help me get back on my feet i would be more than greatful...things were fine up until about a year ago...i was newly wed...had a good job and very happy... i got sick... had alot of kidney trouble lost my job due to missing to much work and my wife ran off with everything i owned even my clothes. i sleep in a rundown trailor with no electricity....i sleep on a couch i picked up at the dump and the only hot shower i can get is at the only friend i have house.. he helps alot but it puts me in a awkward spot cause i know he helps even when it hurts his pocket... where i live finding a good job is nearly impossible....i know there are alot of people who need help and i hope they get it...i pray life gets better for us all...if u can help me...it would save my life...

Hi All and a very Merry and Blessed Christmas to everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe Thansgiving!

Hello all,

I am a mother of three children, the ages are 6,8,10.  I am currently looking for any kind of information to help me with providing a christmas for my children.  Maybe a good JOB LEAD

I am currently unemployed due to a reduction in force from the company I was let go from.  I worked for this company for the past 5 years and one day I went into work and found out when we merged with another company.  I was the employee they let go due to other employees having more time than me.  That is when it all started. I always drilled into my children, they have to work for what they get and without an education it won't be done.  I worked full time, a full time mom, and on my little bit of free time, we volunteered our home for unfortunate children that didn't have no where to go.

I had to face the children that I was solely taking care of on my own.  Mom did not have a job.  We couldn't live like we used too.  We couldn't do the things we were used too, and that we couldn't help others when we couldn't help ourselves. 

 No money coming in and not knowing what we we going to do next.  I ended up loosing my home in ohio and relocated to Monroe GA.  My mother helped me find a home here in Georgia.  Now I am in the Job market trying to find a job.  I currently get unemployment, but by the time I pay the bills, we barely have enough for food a week.   I ended up having to go to a hospital last week because I could not walk due to my osteprosis.  I did not have the money for my medication after paying the bills.  The hospital required me to pay 100.00 before leaving the hospital.  I told the lady, I only had 20.00 on me at that time.  She said well we will take that.  I didn't know what I was going to do for food for the week.  Then the prescription that they gave me to go and get filled cost almost 80.00.  I was not able to get that filled because my children had to eat.  So you can see what kind of situation that my family is in right now. 

Last year around this time, me and my children took and adopted a family that had six children.  This was a  blessing that we were able to do that for another family.  We took 4 truck loads of toys, clothing, and gifts to this family.  This is how we celebrated our christmas.   

I am not able to do this for a family this year, now I am in a situation that I need to find some kind of help for my family.  I have been praying that I could find some information that I could possible find an agency to help my family for christmas.  Help with a job lead or something.  If anyone has any information on anything that will help me and my family, feel free to email me at louisem169@aol.com. 

If I could find one present per child I would be greatly appreciated.  I just feel so bad that I am not able to help another family this christmas. 

Thank you so much the Moore Family

Emil,

I have a question for you.  I signed up for aid page but when I am at my home page, I can't see other members.  Is there something that I did wrong?   Could you help me out.  I want to be able to do this write to try and get the help I so desperately need.  If you can get back to me I would really appreciate it. 

Hi my name is Michelle and I need help severely.  I need a job but my car jumped time 3 weeks ago and I lost my job because of no transportation, and that same day my oldest son had my first grandbaby.  I am depressed all of the time because I can't even take care of my 16, and 19 year old with no money, no car,my rent is 791.00 behind,electric and phone bills are coming up next week. I feel like a piece of crap,I feel useless.  I'm not looking for a hand out just some help until I can get my life back to normal.  I don't even have my christmas tree up yet because I am too depressed.  What can I do?

I live in maine and am also in way over my head. I know there is little hope so i wont ask. But i do have some sports cards and small cars i collected over the years, if any one has a young boy or girl that  would  love to have some for christmas  contact me. dillthecat@msn.com .i can at lest do that and maybe some one will help me.

Salvation Army, Outreach Centers and even the county Social Services Dept. should be able to help get presents for your kids... you should also notify some selective people at the school your kids attend... lots of times business people/community will contact the local schools to see what families are in need for the holidays.

God Bless you! 

mheppler,

Financial helping happens relatively rarely on Aidpage. In most cases, people help each other with pointing to resources (online and local), advice, words of encouragement, sending small packages with stuff, and sharing of experience.

Aidpage does not collect any information about specific cases and ways people might help each other. That's why there are no published "success stories."

has anyone been helped on this page or is this just a big pitty pit??  

I am trying so hard to postmy request. I hope this comes through.I need help. Things were great for the first time in my family's time together and then I fell ill and lost my job.Now we may be losing our home and we ahve a chance to save it .The mortgage company will cut our payments in half IF we catch up the past due amount of $3400.Any help would be appreciated.Contact me at n.mangold@ambt.net

Good morning. A year and a half ago I had open heart surgery. Over this time, my wife and I have diligently paid off doctor bill after doctor bill after hospital bill. We used what savings we had and the insurance we had picked up about 80% of the surgery. We thought we had paid them all off, but a couple of weeks ago I got a call from a collection agency saying we owed (aprox) $1280. This was a shocker since I got laid off from my job August 31.

I am on unemployment now, but we are only keeping our heads above water. I have been all over the net looking for help and there doesn't seem to be any available. Any suggestions?

PLEASE HELP!!!! I know alot of you have seen I need help for christmas but I really do. I am temporarily staying at my mothers house with two children because I have been recently evicted from my home. At the same time, my husband and I are going through a divorce and I receive no child support. My daughter is 6 and my son will be 2 in January. I need help for christmas, I may soon also be homeless....I am trying to get a job to support my children all I can but for now I really need help around the holidays. Please help me make sure my children have a Christmas...Even resources would help.

I am a single mom with 3 children aged 8, 4, and 1.  I just bought a house  and thought i could swing it but with water, sewer,light, gas and pampers there is barely enough left for groceries.  I don't need much even if you had gently used articles for them that would help.  God Bless and thanks for letting me share. jmjenkins74@yahoo.com

I am in need of help.I have tried loan companies and I have tried Prosper and at this moment I can't complete my registration because my bank account is overdrawn.I use it to pay my bills and I have met my limit until December.I tried Modest Needs but I don't qualify because what I am asking the money for doesn't fit their format.I am a single mother with three kids 16,11 and 7.I am currently drawing disability and I have an order to recieve child support for my son's father and I might get lucky and recieve it one month and might not get anymore until we go back to court.I am doing the best I can to provide for my children but it feels like the more I try to do the deeper the hole I dig for myself.I have had to get two payday loans and constantly renewing them is getting expensive.Now with christmas coming up I am starting to panic.I am trying to rebuild my credit so I have to pay by bills and in doing that I am not going to be able to give my kids christmas.I have been trying to apply for loans but with my credit in the shape it is in that has proved impossible.I am looking for some assitance or help from someone that could point me in the right direction.I am not trying to con anyone I am just trying to give my kids a memorable christmas.I know life is not easy but I don't want my kids to carry my problems on their shoulders.They are kids they should not be worried about money they should be enjoying being kids.I know this is not anyone elses problem I brought this on myself but I am seeking assistance to turn things around not just for me but more specifically for my children.Any help anyone can provide will be more than appreciated.Thank you to everyone who is taking the time to read this and thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.I can provide documentation to back up everything I have said and I will also provide documenation of how the money is spent.I just need someone to take a chance or at least point me in the right direction.

How can the poor unite. Why are social services not there or they are restricted, or some other criteria is place getting foodstamps, welfare or housing. They print the forbes richest people in america, why not do the same for the poorest. We are giving up our most precious values of the sanctity of marriage, the loyalties of a family, and the faith in our beliefs. We are killing our planet for the sake of politics, business, oil and gas etc. We are the richest country with not only hungry and homeless people bu working poor and people living beyond their means. We are a country with a false economy. Take away the credit, terms, and other types of false income to get the true economy. Why can't the government issue a citizen care package. It should include for every american born on us soil a birth package that includes a piece of land, a home or materials to build a home, health insurance and pharmacy and dental insurance. It should include like a trust fund allotments to buy the first car, furniture, and other basic needs in a timeline manner that changes with society. No fringes or thing of exceess. They should be issued voucher for certain services or material things such as money to start a business or go to college. this should allow that citizent to take a place in society and offer their knowledge to others in their commujnities but not to be better but to live in harmony with one another. Everyone checking to make sure everyone is taking care of. You know one of the basic rules Help hy neighbor. Money is the root of all evil.

Help please! I am a recently single mother of a 13 year old son, I am currectly behind on my rent by 4 months now and need help. I work full time but make to much to qualify for any state assistance. About $2000.00 would get us current on our rent. I can stay on top of it once we are caught up we are just to far behind for me to be able to catch up on my own. I receive no additional income from my sons father. I have had to cut back on the overtime due to my sons basketball schedule because I just cant bare to miss his games and tournaments and he does not deal well with me not being there for them since his father goes not come to any of them. It all comes down to me and I am so scared of failing my son. If anyone can help! Thank you and god bless all hazelshark

Lost my car after being out of work due to rheumatoid arthritis. Stuck in a hole in the bucket situation, I need my car to get to work, need to work to keep my car, but no car! Tired of being scammed by people who claim they can offer personal loans and auto loans, but without a vehicle I can't even make the neccessary trips to the doctor so my condition isn't getting any better. If anyone can help, or have any advice of what I can do to get another car with a repo on my credit. trinateezy@hotmail.com "If 5,000 people donated a dollar, I'd be $5,000 richer"

Hi Ginger, Im so sorry to hear about your circumstances at this very moment, I wish that I could help you financially, I really do. Unfortunately, the only way I can be of help right now is to pray for your situation to get much better, and that I will do. I to, know what it is to be going through trials and tribulations, I have a disconnect notice for my utilities. I got behind, and it just had the snowball effect from then on. How do i look in my 2 boys (7 and 9) face and tell them why they cannot watch T.V., or why I cant turn on the heat, or why I cant cook them a meal. Everything has just fallin so far behind, Im trying t get out of it but it is so hard, I need about $2800 to get everything cought up and back in shape. To be honest $10 would help right now, atleast icould put gas in my car. I know that $2800 really isnt a whole lot of money these days, but to me right now its like a million. If you find help, please send them my my, and i will definately do the same. GOODNIGHT, GOD BLESS, and GOOD LUCK

I wish someone would come out with "MoneyPage" where people who would like to help have us needy people find them. maybe they could have us write them essays and they would pick someone. Or howabout a "Lotterywinners" page where all the rich winners would post there stories and offer to help someone needy. Oh well, I guess this would not seem real but one could only hope. Thanks, Marineta (Uglyteethed MOM/marsbar)

If you know a dentist who will accept a personal payment plan, I would write a contract and pay about $100.00 a month. COULD ANYONE HELP ME FIND A DENTIST?? I have tried to email my page to a few dentists but so far not one single dentist has contacted me.
