I had posted my Amazon wish list with some snacks / pantry items on a post and had 3 different people send me items. I just received my items today and I reallly appreciate ALL of you! I don’t know if I can tag the three that helped, or maybe they want to be anonymous .. but I hope you guys see this and know it was VERY appreciated and you guys are absolutely amazing to help a complete stranger like that. ❤️❤️ thank you thank you thank you!!! So much

We received some cereal, tuna, and ramen today from someone who saw my Amazon link on another post and jumped in to help out!! Thank you so so much! 🙏 I hope you see this, the little note had no username just your real name and I wasn't comfortable sharing that here!

Hi all, I've done this a few times before, and it's time for another round! If you need some help getting groceries, I wanna help!

No PMs, just post your wishlist here. Please post by Tuesday 8pm EST. I will do my best to help as many folks as I can.

I'm ashamed to have to ask, but I do need some assistance. Recent dental emergency ended up being 3 surgeries and over a week of work missed, and has set me back thousands of $ so I am in a very hard spot right now.

Can anyone please help me get through for a few weeks?

I created a list here but off-list items can be included too. I try to stay as sugar-free as possible. Also due to new dentures, I have to do softer foods. (The crackers on the list dissolve easily, so I can manage them.)

My list is here:

We often see offers from people where you have to sign up and cancel, or given coupon/discount codes, which brings us to this announcement.

Offers have to be "No Strings Attached". This means that the person receiving should not need to purchase anything, nor should they need to subscribe to anything.

As an example, Hello Fresh is submitted quite often, and while SOME of the offer methods are just fine, others are not.

1. You have a coupon? Great! Use it yourself to purchase something to fulfill someone's request. This method meets our "No Strings Attached" policy.
2. Free food with subscription then cancel? This does NOT meet our "No Strings Attached" policy.

Please keep in mind that people who are making requests here are not in a position to afford subscription food services to begin with and you can make their financial situation worse when they're hit with overages and overdrafts because of a forgotten subscription.

Thank you.

EDIT: FULFILLED IN ANOTHER SUBREDDIT(assistance). THANKS! Family of 6(parents and 4 kiddos), our food stamp recertification is under review and in the meantime we are struggling! I have already gone to my local food bank which allows patrons to attend only once a month. Went to two other food banks today, but one was done giving out numbers for the day, and the other was unexpectedly closed. Resources are tapped out, just need some help to get through until payday on the 15th. Thank you so much!

Hello, I have fallen on difficult times and could use some help with groceries. Money is always so tight around rent time and I just ended up using my entire last pay for rent. Anything on the list helps, my next pay isn’t until Friday so anything for the coming week will help. Thank you again. Amazon list

Fulfilled!

Hi,

I want to buy about 50€ of groceries or takeout to someone in need. The country of admission does not matter as long as it’s a transaction I can make online. I’ll leave this up for about 15 hours (until I wake up and return from school).

Please write below why you need help. Thanks all.

Fulfilled! Thanks everyone.

Hello, my partner and I just moved into a new apartment last week and I thought we had enough food to last until I get paid on Wednesday but we’re almost out :/ he’s in between jobs (waiting on a job offer) and all the money we had has gone to gas to get here, rent, security deposit, etc.

I made a grocery list for Walmart and one for Amazon. Thank you to anyone who is able to help!

So my truck has been having issues lately and just last week the brakes had failed and I took it to a shop. I spent the majority of my check trying to get my truck fixed and turns out they barely did them so now I have to take them to someone else to get them fixed on top of a few issues that was caused by the shop messing with things they shouldn't have.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I do have a 3 yr old I need to take care of and the little food I got left until I get paid next week Wednesday.

My location is 49022.

​

Edit: So the front brakes of the truck went out yesterday while I was driving and I got into a car accident so my truck is completely totaled now. Just to give a heads up. Sorry for the delay. It's been really stressful.

My small family needs a little bit of help because my benefits were suddenly canceled and I am fighting to find out why. However, my county is in the process of switching programs or something and nothing will even be looked at until September 5th. We've been basically out of food for a week, my child has been getting most of the food we have left after school. I'm looking for a cushion for the next few days and maybe a few days after in case I can't get the case fixed immediately. I am posting a Walmart list and will happily give more information to help fulfill if necessary. Thank you in advance!

Hi, my husband and I are disabled(My ssi is pending) and we've exhausted our food stamps and foodbank options and still have a week to go until we get paid on the first! Any help would be massively appreciated please and thank you!

edit: filled! Thank you!

Life's been beyond rough here lately and me and my partner have found our selves with the bills just barely paid. (my account literally has less than 2 dollars in it) with every option I can think of being exhausted and making just barely over the ebt limit I'm at a absolute loss as to where else to turn. As embarrassing as this is and as much as i hate every letter I type if anyone could please help you'd be an absolute life saver.

Small side note this is my first time ever creating a list so if I unintentionally done this wrong I apologize in advance.

Need a little help (48854)

Hi, I'm a disabled mom of a 9 year old autistic boy who has severe oral restrictions. The past couple months have been a little rough. Bills higher than expected, our ebt was delayed for renewal because of the overwhelming amount of cases they've had to go through, my car breaking down and my health hasn't been the greatest.

Things are looking up a bit but I'm struggling to feed us. My son drinks pediasures and eats pureed food due to his disability. We're slowly working on his sensory issues, fear, and teaching him how to eat (chew, strengthen his mouth muscles, use his tongue to move the food around, etc). He's doing so great I'm so proud of him! Most of our food is expensive unfortunately (I'm celiac so have to be strictly gluten free).

I've put mostly things for my son on the wishlist as he's my main concern. Thank you if you are able to help and I can't wait for the day where I'm able to pay it forward.

Edit: I forgot to include a zip code: It's 11249

My 75 year old mother and I are both below the poverty line, living in New York City. We have food stamps, but it's difficult to function here. Rice goes a long way, and I usually travel by subway to a far off borough because it's the best China town for buying the cheapest bulk bags of jasmine and short grain rice, but this trip is kind of a trek. I've asked for this once before just as covid hit, on this subreddit, but New york city recently cut emergency aid in the form of foodstamps last Febuary. It's been tight since that change

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/24U99F8HFPYVY?ref_=wl_share

The jasmine rice here is 10 cents an oz which should be pretty close to the cheapest. I can't find the brand of jasmine I normally get(I do get Elephant but I get a 25lb white bag). The short grain is what I normally get, it's 12 cents an ounce here on Amazon and I think there are slightly cheaper per oz calrose rice bags on amazon, so if that's too expensive let me know

Any help we'd be grateful for, wishing everyone well

Haven't gotten much sleep but those are the things I could think of.

Sorry I had to submit a few times.

Thank you very much to the people that were willing to help me, I have no words to describe how incredibly happy I am that my puppers won't need to go hungry while I'm still looking for a stable job, this month has been really really difficult for me, not only did I lose my mom on mother's day in my country but also was left alone with a bunch of expenses and bills to pay, paperwork to fill, sign and deliver, 5 dogs to take care of and of course myself to take care of and feed as well.

You've really changed my situation a lot more than you might realize, I'd put the usernames in the post but I've seen around that its not recommended to do so for various reasons, but you've helped a lot, here's the dog tax, from biggest to smallest they are Bones, who seems to not be very amused as of the moment of the picture, she's my oldest girl, 13 years old and counting, I picked her up from the street, she was abbandoned and was skinny as a stick and had mange, now she's the fattest doggy in the group, then we have peluche, his owners abbandoned him when they moved out, they left him chain to the patio, he broke the chain one day, came here, stole my sandwich from my table and he's been part of the family ever since, then charcoal, he was abbandoned as a puppy, one day I gave him a piece of bread and he followed me home, plain and simple, then we have Ember and Phoenix, a boy and a girl, those 2 are charcoal's son and daughter, when charcoal is in heat he can get very creative on ways to escape the house an get what he wants.

This is my family now, even though we lost a member, We will always remember my mother and honor her memory, I'll do my best to be a good man just as she taught me to, and I hope that this is the last time you see me around here on the receiving end, hopefully if I come back I`ll be on the other end, helping someone like you guys have helped me.

Thank you very much, for everything.

Need help with some food so I can go through the month and hopefully get a job in the meantime.

I'm in México, my mom had alzheimer's and hypertension, last May 10th she had a heart attack in the middle of the night, the doctors said it was a mesentric thrombosis, I rushed her to the ER but it was too late and I feel horrible that I didn't notice before, I used to take her BP every night and every morning, do routine checks on her stomach and so on but I wasn't able to catch it in time. The funeral costs were expensive but I was able to pay them so she could have a catholic burial, she was catholic after all but this has emptied all of my accounts.

We used to live off of her pension that she had from my father who passed away 5 years ago on October, some 3000 mexican pesos a month, I quit my job that year to fully dedicate to taking care of her because I realized that taking care of someone with Alzheimer's is a full time thing, not only for their health's sake but to spend as much time as possible with them while they can remember you still so you don't have any regrets when worse comes to worst.

I've been applying for jobs to no avail yet, I understand that companies don't like a 5 year gap in your CV, but eventually I'll find something, besides, being selfish I must admit last week I was nowhere near ready to start a new job and a new life, I'm more calm now, I've had time to process all that's happened, I still mourn her but I've accepted that she's here no more.

Besides needing food for myself I also have 5 dogs to feed, I've been keeping them well feed up to this day, I asked the neighbors for leftovers and tortillas from a few days ago to keep them going, I can keep them going for a little while longer but eventually I'll run out of resources and I don't know what to do, they're not to blame for my incompetence and I don't want them to go hungry and I'm scared to give them away because I don't want them to go to an abusive owner like it usually happens in México.

My whole life was centered around my mom and taking care of her, all my plans included her, all my hopes for the future, everything, better medical equipment to make her life more comfortable, an inclined pillow to be able to feed her in bed without any problems, a transportation belt so I didn't have to hurt my back carrying her in my arms, buying her dresses to make it more comfortable for her to be around and easier for me to change her clothes and diapers... Sorry about the rant.

All I have left are my 5 dogs and my long distance relationship with a girl who's in a similar economical situation to mine, I met her online while I was taking care of my mom and she being an ex CNA now EMT helped me a lot to know more about how to make things more comfortable for my mom and less physically demanding for myself, I learned to be frugal during all these years to be able to survive while taking care of her full time, I learned to cook healthier foods and to budget within a tight income, but now that she passed away the income is 0 and the bills are still coming, I can probably manage to pay them if I am able to get some help with the food situation, I don't mind living off of instant ramen for a month.

Besides having a 5 year gap between jobs I barely finished highschool due to economical reasons, when I finished it my dad said he couldn't pay for my education anymore and that he couldn't afford our way of living so we'd have to cut off on a lot of things so I decided to start working and help them, it`s a long story but I ended up taking care of the household expenses by myself at some point because my dad had a disk in his vertebrae slide out of place and couldn't walk or work anymore. It's been almost 9 years since then, ever since I haven't bought anything of what I conside "extra" or "unecessary", I'm using the same wallet I used when I was in highschool, I'm using a belt of which I've been cutting off pieces since my last job interview almost 8 years ago, I'm wearing the same boots I used to wear to that job, nothing has changed but everything is different at the same time now that my mom nor my dad are here.

I've made an amazon wishlist: Here

Including food, some basic things like soap and pills for my migraines, since I'm unemployed I don't have easy access to healthcare in México, besides, I always told myself that if I was healthy my mom had to be so I avoided going to the doctor myself. The only very "extra" thing I've added is a pack of boxers because as embarassed as I am to admit this I'm out of underwear, I have 5 of them and have to wear them for 2 days at a time and be regularly washing them, my mom always said if you don't change clothes everyday at least change your underwear everyday, don't be dirty.

I apologize for the venting and long post, I'd appreciate any help that I can get.

Thanks.

TL;DR: Need food until I can get a new job after mom passing away, which besides being very expensive also stripped me of the only income we had in the house.

Hello all! I recently lost my job due to medical issues, and unfortunately, my partner's hours had already been dwindling. I have a special needs child, for whom disability hasn't been approved yet. My partner is also waiting for a background check to come back for a new job, and I am waiting to hear about possible food stamps. Obviously, nothing is guaranteed and when it rains, it pours. So I come to you all to ask for help. Anything you can do would be appreciated. Love and laughter!

any kind of help for myself and my mother, who I take care of while I'm not working as a lab tech (phlebotomist). She has congestive heart failure that's end stage and has really made things rough on us both Got a new job in between pay periods so I am going another 10 days before I get my check and it has really put me in a bind. I appreciate anything at all. This list isnt too big due to the fact that I'll finally have some income in 10 days. If I have done something wrong please let me know. Thank you guys once again.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2RXQAXKC2BPI8?ref_=wl_share

Thank you guys sooo much! I truly appreciate it. BOTH lists have been fulfilled so please don't order anything else from Amazon! I am not trying to take advnatage of anyone.

The kindness I have been shown here has been truly comforting and so sweet, my girlfriend and I are grateful to you all no matter if the contribution was words of encouragement or food. I truly appreciate it and I promise when I am able we WILL pay it forward. Thank you again!

I live with my girlfriend, both of us are 27 years old, both women though I am a trans woman. We live in Texas.

I am unemployed and she recently quit her job because it was not good for her continued growth, and is awaiting her last check. We have basically no food beyond a few random things, a few eggs, some bread, a can of whole potatoes. She has already applied for other jobs but it will be an in between period.

We will not become homeless but we have already been food insecure and it is getting heavy.

I am working on getting on disability but it is proving difficult, I received food stamps for one month before they were cut off. I have looked for local food banks and they do exist but they are sporadic and very time limited.

We won't starve but any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know how this works exactly, but I have a Wal-Mart list.

I have tried to make sure everything is reasonable and affordable. https://www.walmart.com/lists/shared/WL/6b04b64b-4553-4254-b3eb-eb2e01585ee8

Hello and good day im requesting some help with groceries this month. Like a moron I mistakenly forgot to do my 6month Interview with DES for food stamps. Its been several years since I have needed to get food stamps and the last time I had food stamps they were doing interviews once a year my best guess is the change from 1 year to 6month appointments has something to do with the previous pandemic we just went through. Anywho I'm now told I have to re apply and go through the process all over again. At the moment thats the only thing keeping us going. I lost my job recently due to missing too many days following a vehicle accident. The mother of our child hasn't been in the picture the past 3 years. I recently started the court process and feels like child support is taking forever to finalize. Can't work at the moment due to no one to watch my daughter while I'm at work and my closet family lives a few hours away. Loosing my job also meant the funding for day care went out the window as well. Been applying for work from home jobs with not much luck. My last pay check and taxes is what paid rent the past few months not sure what I'm going to do moving forward with this months rent, at least until I find a work from home position. All my messages sent to the mother of our child just get left on Read with no response or no help from her at all. If I can please please 🙏 get help with groceries just this month so I can have 1 less thing to stress about so I can gear all my focus on how it is i will get rent paid for this month I will greatly appreciate it. We litterly have nothing to eat. I cooked the last bit if food we had last night for the little one and I skipped on dinner so there would be some left overs to give her in case I could not figure nothing out. I'm running out of options and raining a child alone is hard enif with no help. She starts school this coming school year so I just have to figure something out then so I can return to normal workforce. I created a walmart+ account because they offer free delivery from store I choose that option because as I mentioned we recently got in a car accident so I have no way to pick up the groceries if I am able to get help. I tried my best to keep it as cheap as possible but then again unfortunately need help for the month. I also added a bottle of detaingler spray for my daughter and as well as a bottle of cheap body wash. Anything would be appreciated not everything from the list is expected I just picked out what I figured could be stretched until I finish going through the whole food stamp process again. Thank you in advance this help would really mean a lot its been a real struggle for me alone and this would really be more help than you will ever know. 🙏

PS. I addedd my walmart list below only because the walmart+ membership offers free same day delivery depending on if there are still time slots open for same day delivery if not it will prompt you for an open slot for the next day. If need be I can create an Amazon list I just figured the walmart one would be best since they offer same day delivery and its free with my Walmart+ membership.

Edit Sorry for the delay i was taking an assessment test for one of amazon customer service work from home positions. Here is an Amazon list I whipped up really quick. With the exception of the sunflower seeds most things on the list I mostly geared for my daughter. Again thank you 🙏 right now anything helps more than you may know.

Hi.. I’ve been pointed towards this subreddit as my partner and I have found ourselves in a bit of a financial bind. We need to save quite a lot of money to move out of our current home and it’s left us having to scrape by with groceries. We’ve been eating rice and plain pasta for far too long :(

I’ve made an Amazon Canada wish list if anyone is able to help us out at all.

I know it’s all trash, Canadian Amazon is extremely limited. I can get the essentials like milk and bread from my local corner store but everything else is just crushing us.

Thank you for your consideration 💕

Hi everyone, my name's Ronald. I'm 21 and a student living in Spain(zip code 23006). I am going through a really rough stretch right now. I'm so broke and haven't really had a good meal in a couple of days. It's been really tough, and I came across this subreddit by googling "broke and starving". I don't have anyone who can help me right now so I'd be grateful for any help. I should be getting some money in a couple of weeks but I don't think I can even make it that far because I have no food whatsoever left. I know the list seems picky and you don't have to get me all of it but anything you can do is appreciated

Thank you so so soooo much!!! Seriously thank you guys!!! Hopefully soon enough i can pay it forward like y'all did with me. Sorry got excited, the food all came super early so I'm set for a good 2 weeks!

Hi, i never thought I'd need help but here i am. I only have 30$ ebt and they've cut me down to 83 a month starting on the second but i barely have any food to last me until then. Anything is appreciated tysm.
