Fundraiser is a community to raise funds for people in need. Requests with more proof and description of the situation are more successful than requests without a backstory or information.

Asking for money for yourself is not allowed. However, if you are part of a group that is officially fundraising for a purpose, such as a school band trip or a cancer walk, then that is allowed because it doesn't benefit yourself alone.

A community for fundraising. This may include groups, events, activities, and organizations that are interested in any type of fund-raising. Please do not submit personal requests for cash, such as stories about not making rent. This subreddit is focused on group efforts rather than self-interested fundraising.

I don’t know how long I can hold on for with relapsing depression

27F here. Life has been throwing trouble after trouble my way. I can't keep going on like this.

For years, I've been struggling with a depressive disorder as a result of my parents not being around since childhood. They had to work tirelessly to keep money flowing for themselves and me. Growing up in different relatives' houses, all I would hear were taunts about my parents' financial situation and how they couldn't keep me since I was five years old. It's a never-ending echo.

I struggled without my parents around, even as a young child. I starved for excellence to keep everyone's mouths shut, spending all my childhood trying to work on myself and get good marks, having no life. I broke records among the kids of the same relatives in my boards, and then I got taunted about my looks, appearance, and acne.

I took up a design course that no one else in my family had taken. My parents would proudly talk about it, saying they were happy for me as I was breaking the mold. The course was expensive, but I still tried to finish it. Sometimes, my parents borrowed money from friends and family, and we'd get taunts about that too.

Finally, my parents retired, and their only wish was to build a house for themselves. They used their life savings on top of loans to make it happen.

Two months ago, someone posed as an SBI manager, telling my mom there were too many transactions, so they needed all the bank details to verify it, which she gave without reasoning, and they took out all the money.

With the house near completion and carpenters, electrician bills, EMIs, and everything piling up, I tried asking my relatives for money. That was the last option, as I couldn't get a loan anywhere else as a freelance designer with no stable income, and I only had ITR filed for one year (they ask for 2-3 years).

I should have known when one of these relatives immediately jumped to lend me 4 lakhs. With nowhere else to look, I took it. They said I had one and a half months to give back, as they also needed it. I worked my ass off and paid them a lakh.

My parents' house is completed, and the housewarming is in a week and a half. Every day I wake up, and I get a message from my aunt that she's waiting for the payback. The moment I wake up, I get a call. Every day I'm struggling to make money on top of already having a depressive disorder, and it's making it worse. I'm losing all hope. I see no point in going forward.

A cousin of mine told me they're coming for my parents on the day of the housewarming and asking for the 3 lakhs back. Or they're gonna push them to the edge until they give up the new house in their name. I can't keep going on. My whole life, they've taunted me and my parents, and when we're finally having something for ourselves, they're coming for it too.

My depression keeps getting worse every day, and I have very close thoughts of ending my life. All I need is time to keep them off while I can pay back slowly, but time itself seems so much more expensive and feels like I have none left. This morning, I felt really thrown off the edge, and I don't know how long I can hang by a thread.

I have created a fundraiser on go get funding. Only to save me sometime. If only I can avoid this coming situation and have enough breathing time, I can pay back each one of you slowly. Making money is not my problem, it is only time. This is my last thread that I’m hanging on.

Support for a family who lost youngest children (ages 9 and 4) in an unimaginable tragedy

Fundraiser Link: https://www.spotfund.com/story/7b9f2fea-e065-48ba-84c9-10f673bded5f?referral_id=a5e4d9eb-6e87-42fa-94a6-0847c9d75650

This family in my city in Minnesota lost the two youngest children on Monday. At a local park, inside an SUV in the parking lot, first responders discovered the bodies of a woman, a girl (9) and a boy (4). The woman and girl were deceased, and the 4-year-old boy died of his injuries at a nearby hospital.

Authorities stated later that there have been no arrests made, they are looking for no suspects, and that they do not believe there is any additional threat.

This generally indicates a murder-suicide.

There is a fundraiser for the childrens’ funeral, and to cover general living expenses for their father and two older siblings.

The grief this family is experiencing is beyond imaginable, and anything anyone can do to help them would be appreciated.

ACL/Meniscus surgery

I’m not sure how to go about this, but maybe some folks here can steer me in a good direction. My 15yo daughter has a 95% torn ACL and a damaged meniscus. We are tentatively scheduled for surgery on 4/15. It’s tenative because we have to come up with $3000 out of pocket before surgery. Without going into all the “whys”, just understand that we are a paycheck to paycheck family and we have no ability to find this money this fast.

My ask is what is the best method to ask for assistance? Is GoFundMe still the standard? If I use a different platform will it reach enough people? Other options?

Thanks in advance for your time and considerations

Freelance Web Developer Facing Severe Risks Due to Circumstances

Hello,

I’m a freelance web developer currently living in a country where my life is in danger due to government laws, that prohibit contacting with Israelis. I urgently need to leave my country to ensure my safety.
I’ve been working as a web developer freelancer for several years, specializing in PHP, HTML, CSS, React and JavaScript. I’ve worked on various projects, including one for a large website related to this country. Unfortunately, this has put me in a precarious situation since the website owner posted a good review in my public profile in a large platform, and I fear someone report this and link me to this profile.
I’ve started a fundraiser on Giveth.io to raise funds in Ethereum (ETH), which is the only currency I can use under my circumstances. My identity and exact situation are disclosed to Giveth and since then, they have listed my fund raiser. I want to use funds to secure a safe passage out of my country. I don't need much, and just enough to travel outside. my destination is Canada, since they have program for accepting people like me.
I understand that it’s a big ask, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Even if you can’t donate, sharing this post with others would be a huge help.
Here’s the link to my fundraiser
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. stay safe everyone.
