Need grocery money

Work has slowed down a lot, and after paying the rent, we don't have much money left over. If anyone could spare some for groceries, we'd be really grateful. We're down to rice and bean, and not much left of that.

Assistance paying for college

Hello! My name is Chloe, and I'm a recent graduate of the GED high school equivalency program. I am now looking to pursue further education by attending an undergraduate program virtually, as I live in a very small town without many college options nearby. 

Throughout my life I've struggled with my studies. My father is in the military, so my family has moved all over the U.S.. I've been unable to make meaningful connections with my peers and teachers, in part due to moving so often, as well as untreated symptoms of my ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder. My education was further disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and a multi-year long mental health crisis that led to my dropping out of high school.

Applying for college is a big step for me in transitioning into adult life. However, I have no money to my name, and my family cannot afford to pay my tuition on top of the high cost of living in our area and taking care of my three younger siblings. This is why I am reaching out to you for a hand, my friend. I sincerely hope you can find it in your heart to assist me in my endeavor to educate myself. Every penny counts, and I am grateful for your contribution. If you can't or don't want to donate, sharing helps as well!

Thank you for taking the time to read my story, I hope you have a good day and god bless you.

This description is copied from my crowdfunding campaign, as it says all I need to.

However today, after being physically assaulted by my mother for disagreeing with her about a coffee drink I am reaching out again.

Fundraiser for a Family

Sad story. Guy posted fundraiser around he wasnt familiar with reddit community and was banned from numerous pages and they took it down. I even reposted myself and got banned from one page because he did it wrong. My mistake, none the less I felt bad and I am reposting for them. Also if someone can pay it forward for this family and repost in any social site it's the right thing to do. Click the link to read the full story!

Help me escape my narcissistic family.

PLEASE READ: This is my girlfriend's story, I'm posting it for her because she doesn't have reddit but wanted it posted so here it goes. I 22F had been in a car accident last year and broke my hip. I had finally gotten my own place, a job and a car (my only way out from my parents). While I was recovering I had my life stripped away from me. I'm trapped without a car and a way to support myself. I had just now recovered from a shattered hip and I am wanting to get back out to work and have my own life more than anything but my parents are taking advantage of my situation. To start, they do not want me to succeed or do better for myself. They love to watch me suffer. They don't want to see anyone do better than them because they are bitter of their own lives and are spiteful people. I cannot pay my own bills and I have no way to get anywhere. The nearest town is miles away so I couldn't walk to work even if I wanted to. My dad pays the bills for my apartment but only to hold it over my head and to get me to do whatever he says and if I don't he will stop paying my bills. He does the bare minimum to keep me alive and that's it. I barely have enough food to live off of even. They want me to move back in with them but if I did I would end up ending my life and with the way they treat me it seems like that's exactly what they want, I cannot take the way they treat me. I am treated like nothing, like I don't matter. I am met with the utmost disrespect and disrespectful comments all while being manipulated and gaslighted. It was so much worse when I lived with them, so I told myself I'd never go back. It is to the point that I would rather live on the street than to move back in with them and I have no other family or friends that would be willing to help me or have a way to. Every time I try to tell my parents I need help with something they flip it around on me and make me feel awful for even asking. They even treat my brother more like a person than me and he's a severe meth addict. They give him money everyday and help him with everything he needs but when it comes to me they never help me. When my brother doesn't get his way he threatens that he will kill himself but if I tried that my parents would just laugh it off as a joke. My dad would play the tiny violin and say "you know what this is right?" Laughing afterwards. I've even been trying to do better for myself by going back to college using pell grant. I've gotten a little money back from it at least but not nearly enough for a car and now my dad is threatening to make me use what little money I got back to pay my bills but I'm saving it for a car. I'm a straight A student and I've told my parents but when I tell them they don't seem to care and change the subject right after. I'm really trying here but I'm not getting any help. I have also been needing to go to the hospital because I am pretty sure there is something wrong but I don't want to call an ambulance because if I do I will never get it paid off because I can't get medical insurance. I have no transportation to the Medicare offices and I have to do it in person. They only care about themselves and have no sympathy toward me and they strive to bring me down in every way possible. They laugh at my cries for help (not a metaphor). My boyfriend plans on helping me get a car with the little money that I have but because of the wreck my license was taken away and my car was in my mom's name, I have to have her with me in court for that reason to get my license back. every time I ask her to take me to court she says she will but never does (I'm pretty sure she just wants me to shut up) and I have until July until my license is suspended permanently. I can't convince her to come with me to get my license back, I ask every day. I have been trapped in this small apartment for so long I feel I am losing my mind. If I don't get out I will end up ending myself here too. I need a therapist but I still don't have insurance so I'm screwed there too and wouldn't be able to attend appointments the appointments anyway because I have no transportation. My boyfriend can't help with me transportation because I've been abused in the past and I'm still deathly terrified of being in the same car as another man that I'm not entirely comfortable with and sure won't hurt me yet. I know he means well I'm just scared because of past experiences with previous relationships and on top of that he lives 2.5 hours away and I don't want to him to have to drive all that way to help me get somewhere. I really am at my wits end and am in desperate need for help or advice.

TD:LR : I fractured my hip and lost all my documents after a bad car accident on my way home from work causing me to be without financial support and wheelchair bound for a year. I'm trying to get my life together and my parents hold everything over my head(helping me with the bare minimum) just to say that I was lazy and didn't want to work even though I was unable to even walk. It is apparent they don't want me to do better than them so they sabotage me in every way possible. They don't want to help me and only hold me back. I have no way out with little to no help. This is my last attempt at seeking help.

P.S. I don't want to ask but if you're wanting to help you can donate to my cash app $ElevatedASF Thank you

Can anyone spare $50 to help me make rent?

I'm just $50 short. I don't know if my landlord will be patient with me over $50, and I'd rather not test it. So if anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.

Milo passed the rainbow bridge. I just wanted to make this post to say thank you to everyone who reached out and extended help during the worst week of my life. He was in pain and now no longer. I appreciate all the help and kindness we’ve been shown here. He’s at peace now. Thank you.

Oficially vulnerable again, lol

Not a request, but my landlord is kicking me out and I have nowhere to go. Nmom has moved out for almost a year now, and there hasnt been any yelling, so I don't know what the neighbours are complaing about. Maybe I'm bringing too many men? I have no money to move out or pay a more expensive rent. I am in almost crippling debt, with total loans adding up to R$ 19k. I've almost never felt this vulnerable.

Being evicted for the holiday

My holiday coal came early this year, and I need to find a new place to live. I was on Long Term Disability leave from my job, because I have two (going on three) herniated discs in my spine, and i'm in constant pain. The LTD insurer for my former employer kicked me off disability because a physical therapist said that I could sit in a chair for "up to an hour at a time." They claimed I could return to work, but couldn't accommodate my disability, and fired me.

I'm on my first appeal with SSI Disability and unemployment has deemed me too disabled to collect benefits. I've been floating with the assistance of two generous friends, but they simply can't do it any longer. I've been looking for a job in the meantime, to no avail and I'm also working with local resources to get more long lasting help, but in the meantime, I desperately need some aid. If you can donate, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If not, please spread this around to get the word out.

Thank you and have a blessed holiday.

I’m sick and dizzy. I took a bath to feel better while watching my shows on my laptop. When I got up I felt dizzy and bumped my laptop. It feel into the water. I don’t know what to do. I don’t have money or insurance for repairs. I’m taking it to the Apple Store tomorrow.

I took off the covers and turned it off. I put it upside down and looked up all the options to save it. I don’t have the money for a new one or the cost of repairs. Could anyone help me? I’m scared. I need my laptop.

It’s my first holiday season safe and free since escaping. Can someone send me some Christmas gifts? I don’t have anyone and am feeling lonely. I won’t have any gifts to open Christmas Day. I just want to be thought of on Christmas.

Even hand made items that you could mail to me would mean so much. Or small trinkets/candy, Just the thought would mean the world. something that will still give that warm feeling of being seen and considered.

If not, I understand. There’s a lot of people out there struggling who need help. And they should get help first!

Happy Holidays everyone and hope you’re all safe and warm this season

Spent the last of my money getting psychiatric help. Can anyone spare some money for food?

Hi, I just had an unexpected medical bill. Fleas have been getting worse, and it came to a really nasty head today, so my partner made me go get help finally. I did it, but we can’t really afford it. If anyone could spare anything to help, we’d both really appreciate it.

Hi, I know with the holidays and winter there will be a lot of requests here. And I know some of them are more dire. Thought I'd give it a shot anyways. It's my first Christmas alone. I'm already feeling the blues but I'm determined to make it festive and fun anyways. I found a xmas tree for $30.

and a box of ornaments for $7. If anyone could help, it would be so appreciated. Again, I understand that people need help with rent or food and that's more important. It would mean a lot if anyone could help even a little. At least I could buy a small wreath from the dollar store. Thanks anyways if you've gotten this far and happy holidays.

Also, I've been scammed on here before and it's gross. I don't want anyone to feel scared so I'm happy to share receipts and payment info as proof. I'll send pics of my place decorated regardless so you know how happy it makes me to celebrate this year free and safe.

Research paper: effects of social stigma and toxic positivity on abused children.

Hi! I'm working on a research paper right now on the impacts of negative social stigma (i.e phrases like "she's still your mother" etc. and how that can perpetuate abuse. If anyone is willing to take the anonymous survey -- it takes 3 minutes! I'd be most grateful!! https://forms.gle/m6etsgig3FkgvrTt6

Please, I'm so close to safety. Can anyone spare $100 for rent?

I found a three month lease on a temporary rental that doesn't care about credit checks. This is the closest thing my partner and I have had to a home since our landlord kicked us out politely asked us to leave at the start of the pandemic. We've been living in hotels and airbnbs ever since, and airbnbs force us to move every week or so because they keep getting rented out from under us by other people. So we really need this place. My partner is disabled and chronically ill, and her health has been suffering badly. And now I'm one day and $100 dollars short of salvation.

This place will let us renew after the three months is up, and it's way cheaper per month than airbnb. I've been trying to get enough money for an apartment for months, and now this opportunity has dropped into my lap. I'm so close. Please, if you can spare anything, please.

Hi! Me again!

So, I'm currently homeless. I live in a shelter. My high school counsellor is helping me out a ton. The thing is, I have a few things I desperately need that she can't help with because she's not allowed to help with medical things. A new knee brace, because mine barely helps, a snow and ice tip for my cane, because winter is coming up, and a cane handle cover, because I cut my hand on the plastic after it wore down. Could someone help me with these, please? My Venmo is certifiedbraingenius.
