Hi my name is Wendy Tennant I have been disabled since 1998 for three years I raised my two daughters’ with little to no help from my ex husband. This is the same man that tried to kill me in 1995. Then I meet the man of my dreams and everything was going great until I started to remember what I buried for years. Being molested by my sister from the age of 3 until 11. I told my parents about it a number of time’s to make it stop and all I was told was that she would never do this to me. So I started thinking it was okay until I left at the age of 17 (1983). I moved in with my ex and that was when the abuse from him started until he almost killed me in 1995. From 1995 until 2001 I was raising my girls on my own this is when I meet the man of my dreams. He stepped in as dad for the girls and treats them like his own. We put them thru college and are still paying. Because we had little to no help from him. I just slowly start to shut down because in my past My family would say your not worth it and you mess everything up, because everyone in my family didn’t care I did care what happen to me. This is one of the reasons why we are in money problems because I just didn’t care, what happened to me. For years I just dealt with it until I couldn’t any more. I really care what happened now but it my be to late and now I am under doctors care. I suffer from PTSD and severe depression. I know with their help I am worth it. They also helped me thru the death of my Mom 12-13-12. But now we are going to lose our house if $16,500 isn’t paid by June 28 o our house will go out to auction on Aug 15th. for back taxes. I have let my family down and now if we lose the house I don’t know how my mental health is going to take it. Any amount would help out. PLEASE can you help. mamawendy26@yahoo.com Thank you for your time, Wendy

Hello, I would like to introduce myself, I am Sarah a mother of two amazing children ages 11 and 5. A couple of years ago I became sick and ended up losing my job, my house and my car. I ended getting in housing that went off my income (which is 356.00 a month) My children and I reside in a complex that is taking a toll on us. My son gets bullied, and in turn is causing him to want to hurt himself due to the anger not only of being bullied but because his father has never been in his life. He thinks at times he would be better off not here. We have sought out counseling and are working with that to build up his self esteem and knowing that he is worth the world. My daughter she is a chameleon and is adapting to the environment, but thats the problem, I don't want her too. This environment is so negative. The things kids see and even adults. I am so trying to seek some help as I am trying to leave this place in Pennsylvania and move to Georgia. I have a strong feeling that is where I am suppose to finally plant my feet and raise my children. My children even ask me, "mom when are we moving"? My heart breaks for them, and I know my situation is not the worst, but it is not the best either. For my family I just want to give them the happiness they so deserve. My children are my world, I stay home and care for them 24/7. I am not at the bars, the clubs, out all hours, I am home trying to prepare them for the world. Tears roll down my face as I envision a house, a yard, possibly a dog (lol). The smiles on my kid's faces is what matters to me. There is so much more that I could tell you, but I won't take up anymore space. Feel free to email me at sbreene782@yahoo.com or sarahbreene@yahoo.com or sbreene782@gmail.com or 814-671-7000 I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you , God Bless, and keep smiling Taking a leap of faith asking this.

When I saw everyone else on here asking for help I felt so bad for them that I stopped feeling bad for myself.. I have been feeling so alone and lost in my mess that I had no thought that anyone could be going through the same as me. I now see that there is so many of us in the same boat. I lost my job four days before Thanksgiving, I was a cook for a hotel. I hurt my back at home could not go to the doctor because my ins at work had not kicked in yet, only had two weeks to go. I was laid up for about a week. I was still in a lot of pain but needed to get back to work, no matter the pain. Well they were not having that. They Said I have to be able to pick up my 40 pounds. Well I did sign the paper work saying I could, when I first started there it was in my paper work. I can not even pick up 20 pounds right now as it is. I broke my back 13 years ago fell about three stories. But after a year of hell I got back upon my feet, but the back will always be a pain in my life. Well so much for that job. I have gone out and been online every day trying to find a job. I am use to waitress work in nice places but noting so far. I even went to subway, hamburger places and still nothing yet, I would love to work in anyone of these places I am so not a picky person. I applied for food stamps and they said yes I can get it. Well that was three weeks ago and still no card in the mail. I applied for a free phone that was also three weeks ago. I hated to do it but one has to eat and I had to get a phone because of jobs and I knew mine would be cut off. Well that happened today. I am thinking my cable and online will go next. Had to spend $75 of my jan- 1st rent to buy food for a month. I do not think I will ever eat beans, eggs, and rice again once I get back to my life, I mean I would, but after eating it for almost a month I would rather not for awhile. I am single 53 and alone so xmas really was pretty sad for me. All my kids are over seas right now, so the last thing they needed was a messed up xmas knowing mom was going through this, you know. I even emailed a church today asking them to pray for me because maybe just me doing it alone was not enough. But we are all so many so I am going to add all of you out there in my prayers, and I am going to pray really loud!!!!! And if you do not hear back from me on here it's because of getting cut off line. If anyone can help me I would be so grateful and will pay it forward once I am on my feet. Thank you Susie McGee in SA. TX. Email susieq78240@yahoo.com And this is my 80 year old mothers # 210-695-3767. We are not close but I think she would take the call as long as she does not have to help. Sad but true. Good luck everyone and God bless us all..........

Dear Angels of Mercy,
ReplyDeleteI will be concise because I'm sure you have many more important things to attend to.
On January 7th my house / our home will be up for auction at the Warner Robins / Houston County Court House in Warner Robins, Georgia. It may already be too late for us. If we get evicted from our home, it will be the most devastating and demoralizing thing to ever happen to us and I literally don't know where we'll go. Everything I've worked for will be lost because I can't imagine where we'll put all our belongings we've acquired over the years.
My two boys I fear for the most. They will be crushed and their world will unravel. Their school, their friends and safe familiar neighborhood will be a fleeting memory. Please Help. We live modestly. I am a good man with no criminal record of any kind. No substance abuse, no gambling nor vices. We are good people; friendly, caring, charitable citizens but, two years ago I became unemployed. I have tried extremely hard to find a good steady job like I had before but still it all falls short. I've worked all of my life without ever needing public assistance. I always had a descent job. I had a 22 year carrier in the USAFR. I/we do not deserve to be subjected to hopelessness and despair. The economy has destroyed my credit. I spent all my savings over the last two years trying to stay afloat. I want to work. I want to have hope but my mind is consumed with the fear of homelessness. I'm not suicidal but it does cross my mind. My self esteem and self confidence have been beaten down from this unnecessary and unfair sequence of events. I have nowhere to turn nor anyone to turn to. Please, help me keep our home. I've been humbled. The lack of money is the root of all misery. I need a second chance to make it all right.
Your foundation is really my last hope. I've often thought what I'd do if I'd won the lottery and I truly always come to the conclusion that I'd definitely give most of it away. I envy you. You can bring such quick relief to pain, loss and suffering with just the stroke of your pen. That must feel good. I wish I could do it. If I'm being crass, forgive me. Right now I'm not my old self.
I just can't lose this house. It would surely be the end of us. Please someone, please anyone give me a second chance to make it all right again. Maybe you could just buy my house and let me start paying you. At 61 years of age I will receive a pension from the USAFR; anything . . . anything . . . .please.
Sincerely,
Matthew E Smith

It takes a community to raise a child. I am writing to you because my family needs financial support to send Lamar Brown, a sophomore, like me, to our local high school in Allendale, New Jersey. Lamar is like a second brother to me, and I got to know him nine years ago when he came to stay with us through the Fresh Air Fund, a New York City program which sends inner-city children to host families for vacation. We’ve become like one family, which includes Herika, the single mom, and Isaiah, Lamar’s older brother, spending time together for holidays and weekends. They’ve truly become our extended family.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, Lamar has made some poor choices and is presently in an Out of School Suspension for one year. This facility offers minimum to no teaching which will negatively impact Lamar’s chances of passing his Regent’s, getting his high school diploma, and getting into college. My parents along with Lamar’s mom, Herika, are acting in his best interest, and have decided to enroll him in Northern Highlands Regional High School. Without legal guardianship, my parents are obliged to pay an annual tuition of approximately $14,000 a year totaling about $28,000 for him to graduate, starting this September, though we would like him to start immediately if finances permit. Unfortunately my parents don’t have the extra money for his tuition, although they are happy to cover all his living expenses while he lives with us.
I am writing to you, asking for financial support for Lamar’s tuition to attend our high school. My family is looking into ways to contribute to his tuition, and I know we will be asking friends and family for help, but I believe we will fall short of our goal. Our school superintendent and principal are very interested in Lamar’s situation. We need your help. Would you be willing to contribute to Lamar’s tuition and give him the opportunity for a better future? Thank you.
Sincerely,
Téa Russell

Hi
ReplyDeleteMy Name is SU.
I Am The Founder Of The SU U TEMPLE OF BEING; established just recently on 4/22/14; I teach that GOD Only Makes GODS.
My website is www.youareagodintraining.com.
I appreciate the time you have taken to read my letter. I am a great fan of your philanthropic work and admire all the donations and online financial aid you have made in the past.
I am writing this letter because I am in financial hardship and was hoping you could take the time to read my case and perhaps give me a donation, which will really help me until things get going.
I'm giving away my Spiritual Program "13 Pages That Will Change your Life" for free; even though it shows a $7 charge on my website, (I'm going to change this in the next few days).
I'm in need of funding to keep things going for the next few months; $5000 or so would really help.
In exchange for your Blessing, I will give you free access to any of my future products, events or programs for as long as you or I live.
I didn't expect this much difficulty in raising funds, especially when I've sacrificed so much to help others; but I guess this is how the world is...with new things.
As you well know...The Joy Of Giving Is Unmatched In All The Infinities.
May Your Eternal Day Be Glorious,
SU
