To begin with, we have an friend only group chat and yesterday one of my dearest friends, who calls me his real brother in hindsight of having one, posted a disturbing video that his neighbour sent him: his house being set ablaze by an unknown source currently, while his father was inside. This fire took the life of my friends father and both his and his mothers only shelter. I live in Europe, Lithuania, yet I can't find a donation/fund source to make a list that's relative. I need any advice on what fund sites I could use. We care so much for him and want him to overcome such tradegy.

? Can you help guide me? Thank you

Under a bush or bury it somewhere?

Sorry to bring this ugly subject but I really need help . I left the window open because when I spend a lot of time in the car, it needs fresh air. However, a cat jumped in and peed inside the car. At first, there was no smell, so I wiped it up, but after a few hours, it started to smell so badly that I can't even get inside. I'm afraid that if I use water, things will get worse. I need the car because it's where I sleep, and I can't sleep with that smell.. what's the quickest solution?

Chicago is set to radically transform its approach to housing immigrants and homeless individuals by 2025. Mayor Brandon Johnson's new “unified sheltering system” will integrate both migrant and homeless shelters. This is a shift from the current crisis response model, which was implemented when Texas began sending migrants to Chicago. The change aims to increase shelter capacity but limits aid to migrants who arrived within the past 30 days.

If there's anyone else from the US or western Europe who can help me to launch a fundraiser on GFM please contact me. They have a rule that says only residents of 20 countries are allowed to organise a fundraiser and then withdaw any donations from their platform. I need some trystworthy and loyal person who would agree to help me in that regard. It won't take too much of your time. I can't do that on my own from my location. I'm in deep trouble. Urgent financial and health issues that need to be fixed in the near future. This past year has been the heaviest year of my life. I'd be grateful to you for the rest of my life. I promise you If I manage to get out of this situation alive and once our life gets back to normal I will find a way to return the favor to you and will thank you.

I'm 21 years old, to ugly to lose my virginity. So I drink almost every night so I can forget about the fact I will never see a naked woman. My grandpa said he is tired of catching me drunk all the time, I also am to anxious to pay a hooker because I know she will be judging my looks because she only cares about money. My grandpa is telling me I'm becoming a burden to him and my grandma. I've tried saving up money but then the memories of women laughing at me with their friends and getting bullied by my co workers for never having a gf become to loud in my head and I need to drink or else I have a breakdown. I think I'm just going to buy a tent and apply for food stamps then leave my grandparents house. I honestly am ok with not having anything as long as I have alcohol so I can forget I'm a ugly fuck I will be fine.

I have been trying this past month to secure housing for myself and I have gotten very very few responses.

I have money to pay 3 months up front, I have co-signer, no criminal record, no evictions, always pay rent on time, drama free, and I have always been employed other than the past few months while I have traveled abroad in SE asia.

Still, nobody will rent for me.

I just need a place to rent, so that I can then look for work and begin working again. But I can't find anything at all.

If anyone has any ideas or has been in this situation before and could offer advice I would very much be interested in it and appreciate it.

I'm just burning through my money slowly and once it runs out... I fear my goose is cooked.

Thank you for your help. I need the to save myself.

I live in a sober living house and really need some extra cash for rent but the plasma places say that we can't donate living here. Most of the guys here do but they are all from this town and have addresses they can use I'm not from here my local address is from hours away. Anyone have any idea I could really use the extra money.

At the end of this month I’m being kicked out of the apartment I’ve been at since February. I moved to Washington to have a fresh start and now it’s just a repeat of what happened before I moved here.

I don’t know anyone else in the entire state. I have no friends or family that will take me in. So I guess I’m just going to be homeless.

I have less than $50 left. No job either. I don’t know what to do.

Hey guys, I'm in need of some advice. Let me go back a few months. So, the summer was coming to an end, and I was headed to college in 2 days. I was (and still am) hoping to become a surgeon in the future. I was getting ready and saying my goodbyes to my friends. Day before I left, my car's engine seized. Anyways, headed to college and started classes and was feeling good. Then one night I was riding my skateboard and got a concussion, which set me back a few weeks in school. I was sent home to recover. Once at home, I hung out with a group of friends my parents didn't like, and they had already told me I couldn't go out with them (I'm 18 btw). They kicked me out over this. Headed back to college, and for the past two weeks I have been killing myself trying to catch up. As a biology major with 6 classes and 2 labs this is hard to do. I have been struggling with my mental health for years now, and this has only made it worse. Now I have no choice but to go through with a medical withdrawal. None of my friends can take me in, I called my grandparents and they can't, asked my parents if they would just forgive me and get over it and they said no, asked my sister and she said no. I have $140 to my name, no car, no place to go, and 4 days before I have to leave my dorm.

Here is my plan:

Step one: Somehow get a $5,000 loan with bad credit and no job (basically impossible). Step two: Buy a working car for 3-4k. Step three: Get insurance, save the rest for travels and one month of food and gas. Step four: Drive to a warmer state (currently in Iowa) so I can sleep comfortably in my car. Step five: Get a job in said state and work my ass off to pay off the loan and my credit card and start a savings account. Step six: Return to college next fall and succeed this time.

This plan seems as though it would work, but without step one, none of it will work. I'm paralyzed and don't know what to do. If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated.

I'm open to ALL advice seriously but my main focus is shelter. I can get foodstamps so the food isn't as much an issue. How can I find somewhere to sleep if I cant get into a homeless shelter for the night? I don't have camping gear or anything, not even a coat and it gets cold in the fall/winter here (Utah). I'm just scared I'm going to get hurt or something so any tips are greatly greatly appreciated, Also any tips for panhandling (finding a spot, how to figure out city laws, how to not get arrested, what would be a good sign?) I want to find a job ASAP but ive been looking for a while, might as well do this inthe mean time.

My dad said he’s going to kick me out at 18 I’m turning 18 in December we’ve never gotten along we argue and we just don’t like each other so yh .I live in London and I’ve heard from friends that I can be given emergency accommodation .Like what do I do I still go college and I’m looking for work .

My current living situation has me literally unable to afford food AND rent and since I like having a home, I'm forced To go hungry.

Can anyone possible order me some food to eat tonight?

I don't know how to pay you back but I don't feel like I can physically or mentally go anymore days without eating.

I'm in Concord NC

Please dont judge, im starving, not begging.

I'm 30 years old, female currently living with my aunt. I have been living with schizophrenia since high school. Aunt and I both receive SSI. She was recently diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and I will have nowhere to go when she dies. Any advice appreciated. I have tried reaching out to organizations for case management or a social worker but nobody returns my calls or reaches out. I don't know what to do.

I don't need much, maybe 5-10 bucks just to get something for myself and my mom. Check normally comes in on Mondays but the bank holiday has pushed it out and we really haven't eaten since Sunday morning. I feel awful asking for any help again but it's just really hard

My cash app is $Chrisgray904 literally anything would be fine, we have absolutely no food at home.

Again, I'm sorry for asking.

Cities nationwide offer appeal to people for a variety of reasons, from lifestyle to affordability. And if you are thinking about making the leap to a new place to call home, it is ideal to make sure you have the salary to cover the cost of living in a new locale.

GOBankingRates created a report to determine the salary needed to live comfortably in the nation’s largest cities by examining the 50 largest U.S. cities by population and determined the salary needed to live comfortably in each one. The team also used data from the U.S. Census, Zillow, BestPlaces and the Bureau of Labor of Statistics.

I'm a single mother with a 6 month old that was thrown out of where I was staying. I do have a job and luckily I had gotten paid the day my so called"friend" decided to throw me and my child out. Unfortunately those funds are gone and after tonight, I don't know where my baby and I are going to sleep. I've contacted every resource given to me in my town and they all have said the same things, the shelters are full and they don't have the funds to pay for a hotel for us. If I don't secure a for me and my child, my job is going to let me go. All day while my baby was at day care I was on the phone, calling and emailing and got nothing. I'm at my wits end and I just don't know what else to do. Don't wanna give up and definitely don't want to go back to where I was thrown out of and risk being thrown out again. Guess I'll pack what I can carry, leave the rest, and go to avoid the humiliation and embarrassment in the morning.

Can anyone help with 5 dollars? Trying to get a little gas money to get groceries

In the latter years of the 2010s, the nation of Finland positioned itself as a global leader in combating homelessness. Through an innovative public policy strategy that has virtually eliminated homelessness within its borders, Finland has redefined how nations can address homelessness.

By focusing on prevention, early intervention, and a comprehensive support system through wraparound services, Finland has shown the world that homelessness is a solvable problem.

Lol for real, this time it isn’t me. It could easily be though. Limited access to a car.

Im 22 Recently became homeless looking for somewhere to stay in the houston area while I get back on my feet, will help with bills once I start working.

Making a post for a friend, so I need a preface she is 23 years old and currently has an arrest warrant out in Ohio. I'm not actually sure what it's for but I know that she only has the warrant because she missed the court date that she was supposed to show up to. This has made it incredibly hard for her to find a job, she was working at McDonald's around where I live but she didn't want to be living on her parents anymore because of bad living conditions and is now living with a man in Ohio around the Port Clinton area.

She had a car that she had bought off of somebody on Facebook and the car ended up being a lemon. It now is broken down with a blown head gasket. I recommended that she just scrapped the car and get some money out of it or the morally wrong option that would get her more money would be to try and get it fixed and sell it (the man she's with right now can fix it). if anybody doesn't know anything about blown head gaskets the part itself is only around 50 bucks the problem is that the work is incredibly meticulous and typically it's not worth even fixing because any slight error in the job will cause the whole engine to blow anyways.

I'm curious if anybody has any advice for her right now she is struggling for food. Long-term my best plan is that she should come live with me and my boyfriend and get the job that she had here back so that she can save up some money, but she can't really stay here for very long because my boyfriend has a daughter. He does not have full custody and that could cause problems with the custody agreement. My boyfriend is out in Georgia right now and once he comes back (december) she most likely will need to have a place to go by then.

She definitely needs to pay off her warrant because she can't even apply for food stamps because of it, but the problem is that she's dug herself such a hole where she has no place to go, no way to get around, and no job to make money at where she really doesn't have many options.

I have a rare neurological disorder that has left me physically disabled. I was denied workmans comp, medicaid, medicare, and disability. I have narrowing escaped eviction multiple times this year, and I don't know how I'm going to get through the next two months.

I have a best friend that I've been friends with since we were 12. When I was first experiencing these severe physical symptoms, she said to me. " You can stay with me." " I promised your mom I would look out for you." I need you." She has a spare bedroom and bathroom. For a long time, I said no because one, she lives on the fourth floor. Two, her elevator doesn't work. Friendships always change when you live with them.

I have two months left on my lease, and I am just trying to finish my lease and get out of here so I don't get an eviction on my record.

I asked my best friend if I can move in with her in January. Here's what she said.

" We'll see. I like living alone."

She's my best friend for over twenty years. She offered it to me. I am severely disabled and a nurse says I need to be in assisted living. That's how dibilitating it is. I'm in fear of my personal safety if I end up on the street.

At the end of the day, she's my best friend and I'll forgive her, but honestly, I'm really fucking pissed at her right now.

I just wanted to get an opinion. Am I wrong for feeling this way?

I'm sorry for asking for help again, I'm currently in the direct path of hurricane Milton and my mom desperately needs her blood thinner and anxiety medications, the pharmacy closes at 7 pm and won't be open tomorrow because of the storm. I can pay it back Monday morning if possible it's really urgent.

Again sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but I'm not familiar with other subreddits for this type of things and have less than an hour so I'm just came back here as i was able to find help last week.

EDIT: I was helped by two extremely kind people, thank you so much and again I am sorry for asking for help. When I get paid i'd like to pay it forward a bit on this sub for the help i've received lately.

Am getting evicted for non payment because of a payroll error at my job that & they deducted way too much.

Thankfully the property manager was willing to work with me to keep my family housed but then out of the blue my property manager refused to help any more even though I was giving large enough chunks of money to bring my account to $0.

I even found some financial assistance programs that guaranteed they’d be able to help me pay down my balance so I wouldn’t have to pay out of pocket and I was accepted! Only shitty thing is, my property manager accepted the money but still wants me to move out.

I did every thing right. I communicated with my property manager, applied for financial assistance and all was good. I should still be allowed to stay in my home but because my property manager & landlord want possession of our home back, I’m about to be homeless with my family.

Thank god I have a good paying job so we can relocate but no, my credit is shit because of a layoff in 2023 and we haven’t been able to pay down our debt at all. My wife can’t work because we have 3 kids who need support & childcare yet we don’t qualify for SSI or childcare assistance.

We can survive in hotels for the mean time but I can’t afford that long term and keep my family fed & clothed at the same time. I’ve been calling everyday to different programs that could help our housing situation but there are no waiting lists or the waiting lists are 2yrs long and anything else requires approval from a rental first.

Idk what society expects me to do. Keep my job while living on the streets until my credit gets better?

I feel like I’m one of those very few people that are able to recover but I’m gonna fall through the cracks and lose it all. I’m seriously afraid of what’s to come in my city if there are no resources what’s so ever and being homeless is illegal.

Not exactly sure what I am looking for but I am wanting to find a live in job like the jobs on cool works but where I can bring my wife and 2 babies. Like a live in groundskeeper. or live in tour guides but where my kids and wife can stay too. Is this a thing? we have done lots of seasonal work before we had kids but would love to do it anywhere in the Usa that has accomodation ok for kids. My wife and I are both happy to work but obviously have to take turns. Does anybody know if anywhere like this? Gorundskeeper work? Is that what we are trying to look for? Thanks !
