Hello, I'm not sure what help I can get or if this will even work. However, I have run out of options and wish to at least try. I will admit I have posted this on a few different sites to try and get some help.
My name is Ash. I am trying to raise funds to get my mother's electricity back on. It has been off for over a month and I cannot afford to get it back on. My mother has always been mentally unstable. She has bipolar, depression, and is slightly schizophrenic. Unfortunately, the pandemic has made this much worse and affected her in a very bad way.
She has spent years trying to manage and help herself. Medication and therapy. She found a doctor and was doing very well the last few years. Well enough that I moved away before the pandemic hit its high point. I live in a completely different state and do not have a car myself. Her boyfriend of seven years broke up with her and stole her car.
Needless to say, the breakup caused her mental state to plummet. Since she lives in a rural area she couldn't get to her doctor's appointments, I'm sure she also didn't even want to. She no longer had the medication, or help that she needed. The events also caused her to lose her doctor, and she was unable to receive any unemployment. She was paying her bills with the stimulus checks and had not let me know had bad it had gotten.
It wasn't until she called me to let me know the power had been shut off that I learned about everything. Since then I have been helping her try and get a new doctor to get back on her medications. I have also been helping her keep her other utilities on, like gas since the heat runs through it
However, I cannot afford the electric bill. By the time they turned it off, it was nearing $2000 since they left it on during the pandemic. Since then they have started charging again. They also need a connection fee since it's been off for so long, and honestly, it's just too far outside my budget. I'm also worried because it is getting cold fast, and sadly the heating in the house ran on electricity.
It will be a long process to get her back to a healthy mental state, and I'm willing to do what I can for her. However, I am also aware that I need help. So I figured I could at least give this site a shot.
Thank you for listening to my story.

Sadly I have been unable to receive any help so far. My mother still has no Electricity, water, or heat. I recently lost my job and am struggling financially myself. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Hello, thank you for stopping by and taking the time to read this. My name is Karina and I’m 25 years old. My story starts about 3-4 years ago. I actually had a good-paying, reliable job and my husband and I were able to save money and set it aside for emergencies. My husband was also working at the same job as me and was making good money too. We almost started to get comfortable. Then my husband’s health, at first gradually and then suddenly, declined. He developed problems sleeping, he is in constant pain from multiple medical problems that have yet to be properly diagnosed, and worst of all he suffers from PTSD. None of the tests the doctors have taken have come back with answers, and the medications they’ve tried have had little to no effect. At this point he is suffering in silence every day of his life because he barely gets 5 hours of sleep consistently each night, he is always nauseous, his stomach is in physical pain, he has migraines, kidney stones, etc. and it has caused his depression to get so much worse. Of course, my mental state got worse as his physical health decreased. Our finances got really bad too. Medical bills started piling up faster than I expected. We had to use our credit cards more than we wanted because of big home repairs (had to replace well, get water filter for rust, replace furnace, replace hot water heater, new plumbing. Etc.) and major vehicle problems. It felt like everything was going wrong. Jeez, it still feels that way. It got so bad that my husband and I made the choice to file bankruptcy. Some of our debt was discharged, but not all of it. Last year I got pregnant and it was a miserable pregnancy. I suffered from hyperemesis and no matter what I just couldn’t feel good. I got fired from my job because I was advised to take a leave of absence during my pregnancy but then my doctor refused to fill out the paperwork properly. Because of my condition I couldn’t find another job that was going to pay well enough to be worth it. By worth it, I mean worth the cost to drive to and from, and worth the risk to mine and my baby’s health since this was during the pandemic. Also, due to being pregnant and not being able to work, I did not qualify for unemployment benefits. We have been struggling badly despite so recently filing bankruptcy. My baby was then born ten weeks early and had to spend more than his first month of life in the NICU. That was a terrifying experience. He is home now though and is doing so amazing, you can’t even tell he was born early! Of course, my husband and I have returned to work. I got a new job working from home and have been working there for about two months now. We have been working on building a savings account for emergencies, but it seems like we constantly have something we need to spend money on. I’m so exhausted. I just want to be comfortable for a little while. Please, if you are able to help I really appreciate anything! I will repay you however I can.

Hello,
So I'm new to this concept but I'll try anything at this point. I lost my job from covid and have yet to find a new one. Unemployment is on hold from some technical error and has been for over 6 weeks. Can not get in touch with anyone for help to solve ui. Bank account is in the negative. No funds coming in at all. Bills piling up. Single mom. Get the picture. I owe friends and family so that is not an option. I am trying everything I can think of. Any help would be a blessing beyond belief. I will pay it forward when I am back on my feet. I have pay pal. Oh yea, and got in a car accident yesterday...auto insurance was one day away from cancellation....wha!

Im not really sure what to say, so I’m just going to be honest. I need a mental break from financial struggles.
I’m a single mom and have been working non stop since my partners past when I was 16 and yeah it’s hard but I always find a way to keep going. But this year and the last year have been mentally and financially challenging. My complex has increased my rent and now I just feel like I’m drowning. I just want one month where I know I can breathe.
By 16 , my sister and I had lost both of our parents and I feel like I’ve just been surviving since then. I’ve done every job you can possibly think of to make sure my daughter never goes without the things she needs and ensure our bills were paid. Now I’m just tired. I’m not sure if that even counts as a reason but it’s the one I have. Going non stop and never feeling like you’ve made it when you know you have, just defeats you in moments like these. I’m not going to give up but having some help would be really great right about now. I need to pay Novembers rent and utilities. I’m asking for a goal of $3500 and honestly, anything really does help. $crissyjay30
I am ashamed of myself for asking money like this but also desparatly in need . I am in college need to pay loans, rents etc but recently due a medical problem of one of my family member, a lot of money has been used up leaving me in my worst stage possible .
I am in an urgent need of 500 $ .
If you can help me by giving any amount I would be greatful .
Thank you
Hello there,
i trust you are keeping safe and trying to be well,
I am called Derrick living in Kampala, Uganda. I am here because i have searched for funding and its been tough then in my regular searches for funding i landed here. Thank God! I am requesting for funding to fund my ideas and some works on going already.
These are my ideas and works:
1) I run a website called tenderjournal.com, we post tenders so that our online visitors can pick tenders off the site and bid. This site has been up for a year and half now i started it during the covid19 outbreak May 2020. If you visit the site,you clearly see its lacking and i need it better than it looks, meaning designs, upgrade of the site, social media marketing, all these are costs that need funding. Even my google earnings have been terrible right now under $10 for all that time from May 2020 upto now, but with this upgrade, even external advertising will come in
2) I run a furniture shop sharing space with a colleague but it hasnt been rosy as business can be rough which is understable but with more funding, it could skyrocket given the demand for wooden products like chairs, tables, wardrobes ([pictures attached)
3) I do taxes for my clients and my biggest challenge has been my laptop (bought in 2015) and still using it upto date but with the changing technology it has slowed down in all ways and i would kindly need assistance to make my work easier.
4) i also want to formalize my ideas and projects to a real company registered and tax complaint i need funding to register the company.
5) I also need a car to do all this work easily, whoever shall fund for me a car GOD BLESS THEM ABUNDANTLY, and i hope i shall return the favour sometime in the future when all goes well which i believe will go well
6) I also want to finish my studies, I have done 10 ACCA papers in the past but one has been pending ever since 2020 i would love to finish it.
So in conclusion, the total funding requested is broken down below;
For Tender journal- $5,000
For Furniture- $10,000
For Taxes laptop- $3,000
For Registration of company- $400
For Car purchase- $20,000
For ACCA study- $600
TOTAL FUNDING REQUEST = $39,000
**If i can manage to even get half i shall take and squeeze myself to work out each.

I'm really struggling right now to make ends meet. I am trying to get out of a terrible living situation so that I can get custody of my daughter back.
Hi! I am a young single mother of 2 boys, Drayden and Zayden. I recently lost my job because the 7-11 is downsizing. My car payment and rent is coming up at the end of the week, and i am also struggling with buying food and diapers. I have faith that God will help me through one or more of you, and i appreciate your time. Thank you!
Good evening, thank you in advance for taking the time to to even consider helping in any way. To begin I am a mother of 3 beautiful daughters. I have raised them on my own with no child support in over 5 years. I am a waitress at a restaurant where I have been for over 20 years. I have never been rich and have counted coins more times than I can count to make ends meet. I've never been in a position to wear I have had to ask for money or anything luckily. I have no problem working for it myself. Since COVID my income has been cut in half. I can pay my bills but cannot afford to fix my broken suv. Timing chain jumped and in also need a new motor. Paying for a ride back and forth to work everyday is eating up the small amount of money that I have. Anything would be greatly appreciated. May God bless you either way! I had to put my pride aside for my children and hopefully someone will help answer my prayers.
