My friend has been doing a gaming marathon every year for the last NINE years to help children in need at Riley Children’s Hospital. He always does this no matter how much it brings in, which usually isn’t much, and wanted to blow away his expectations this year. He set a list of what he would like to achieve as a goal: $3500. This is nearly double what he has ever brought in for a single year. He will even get his eyebrows waxed off live on the stream if we meet the goal. He’s close to the tiers where he dyes his hair lime green and beard blue (he works at a school and they have him permission to do so).

Check it out and contribute if you can. It could literally save a kid’s life to have this man wax his eyebrows off.

09/30/24 Edit to my first post: Well we got word today we have to move. They're evacuating all first floor Apartments. They are going to help us relocate. I will get more information tomorrow when I call them. This is such a stressful time I asked for extra prayers to help us get through this. This literally isn't what we wanted nor expected. It's sad because we've lived here for a decade it feels like an end of an era. I hate we have to move so quickly without fully vetting the new apartment options. This all feels so surreal I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. We will be fine and get through it together.

My name is Jennifer and I don't know you but I believe in the good in humanity. Hurricane Helene flooded our Subaru Outback and our apartment. We have water damage and no flood insurance. We want to have assistance to hire a water remediation company to assist with getting water out of bedroom carpet and replace towels and ruined clothes. We will have to wait for a claim with State Farm for our vehicle. We are both missing work my spouse and I. We will need help getting an Uber etc. Also anything left over would help with a down payment for a car. I am a tech rep and my spouse works in pest control. Even if it is $5 it is a blessing 🙌🏾 thanks in advance. Me and my wife lost both our vehicles and so many items. Hillsborough county code enforcement in Tampa came by to take photos and advised that Fema needs to total up devastation in Tampa Bay. He said we could go to the fema site and apply for help. Just glad me, my wife, and dog are okay.

Been dealing with a lot of stuff lately, I recently became disabled and I'm 4-5 month before I get a disability determination.

Right now, I'm just looking to solve the "here and now". My cats need food, as I've been feeding them canned tuna that I've cooked and I know it's not necessarily good for them, but I've run out of dry food. Adding to this, I've run out of some essentials myself, and don't have a car, nor any money to go get more.

I'm trying to figure out my immediate problems as of right now.

Thank you for any help!

Hello my fellow Redditors,

I'm someone with epilepsy and I want to graciously ask for donations towards the 2024 5K Epilepsy Fall Fest. Which is taking place in Chicago, IL. The event is being presented by Northwestern Medicine. They are collaborating with the Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Chicago.

The Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Chicago, helps the epilepsy community by providing an assortment of resources, i.e. support groups, counseling, teen support, social events to help connect those with epilepsy with their peers, those that are caregivers, and even support family/friends of people with epilepsy. Honestly the list goes on!

When I registered for the event, I was given a donation page. All donations will be going towards the Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Chicago. No matter the amount all donations make a difference. If you can't donate, no problem, all I ask is for you to spread the news about the event that's happening and help make a difference in the epilepsy community.

Also I wanted to add that I am someone that doesn't like to post my picture at all, but after some thinking I wanted to let people know the face of who is behind the page, and show that I'm so serious about this cause that I am willing to step out of my comfort zone.

Good evening to everyone! I will be inserting my gofundme link here (it includes bill documentation)

& for those who dont want to travel to the link for the circumstances resulting in me making this fund, i an reposting the about here: . . .

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am requesting assistance because i have missed many hours of work due to a mental health crisis from lack of access to my psychiatric medication that enables me to be functioning & efficient in my daily life. Medical insurance issues halted my ability to procure my daily medication & as a result of the withdrawal effects, i experienced sever physical illness/discomfort and suicidal ideation & depression relapses. i also lost access to my psychiatrist and therapist in the interim.

The month of May and the beginning of June have been an uphill battle for me. I am asking for help to cover the amount i lost in wages from my paycheck so I can securely pay rent on July 01 without risk of eviction.

This will enable me to get back on track to being self sustainable. This is my first time living alone ( by no choice of my own) and i do not have family with disposable or extra income to help me out in this rough patch, so i must rely on the kindness of the public.

I am a low income Black American woman living in the Bay Area with no higher education (or free time to pursue it) to leverage for higher paying work. Ive been doing my best to keep afloat and have previously reached out for rent assistance programs that currently have a large waitlist &/or are also depleted of funding.

If you are able to, please consider donating and i will promise to pay the goodwill forward when im in a better position to. Thank you! ‍

For context I’m disabled on disability and am too chicken and shy to start a go fund me. I could really use any amount! I’d be forever grateful! I’m 29f and need money for food! Maybe $30 anything would help sydddd2324 is Venmo! Have a great day!

Im about 27 weeks pregnant and my partner recently walked out on me and our five-year-old daughter. I haven't worked in over a year and have nothing saved up. Literally no cash on hand whatsoever. I am on every type of government assistance I'm eligible for and utilizing every possible resource I can for food and other things but there are some things I just can't get any help with. I am willing to accept literally any help I can get right now and my dms are open.

I'm trying to go back to an old job and need appropriate work wear (plain tees, jean shorts, non slip shoes). A family member paid for a summer pass to the pool for my daughter and I but we need swimsuits because neither of us can wear ours from last year. They do not allow any type of "street clothes" in the pool. Gas is also a big struggle right now...

I am including an Amazon wishlist with the things I mentioned above as well as some food items. I only get $133 in food stamps and that is typically gone after one grocery trip and doesn't reload until the 9th. I also get WIC but all I have on it right now is 3 gallons of milk and it doesn't reload til the 30th.

Can someone buy my two grandchildren something to eat? If so we can walk to McDonald's or taco bell. TIA.

My family has suffered an unimaginable loss. My beautiful 15 year old daughter passed away last week due to complications caused by a suicide attempt. I lost my husband in 2017, so it is just me trying to make it through this with my two other children.

We are still short on what we need to arrange Emmie's funeral so we can say goodbye. I've called every organization I can think of, and I'm still not there. Our GoFundMe is below.

I also have an Amazon wishlist with food items for my kids and pets. While eating is not high on my priority list right now, they have to eat, and every dollar is going to funeral arrangements right now.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, or even just sharing this would help. Thanks for reading, and hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight.

3 weeks ago I took my dog Spartacus to the vet due to him not eating and found out that he has 2 fractured teeth in the back, and three teeth that have root exposure, and all of them need to be removed. The vet quoted the bill for around 3k, I am trying every avenue as of now to get together the money and have created a gofundme for him.

Any support whether it is a donation or a share is greatly appreciated. that you very much.

My husband is in the hospital about to officially receive his fourth cancer diagnosis in nine years. I am his caretaker as his NHL is terminal and he can’t always handle things on his own. I had two work from home jobs I lost late last year and was starting a new one when the guy I was working for left the state for a family emergency last month. Haven’t found anything since. I had us on a strict budget but the extra medical stuff the past month is killing is. Three ER visits, a surgery, and now a hospitalization. We get disability but don’t get paid again until the third. I have $45 to care for my family of four between now and then. Our internet is about to be shut off, I need gas in my car, and we need groceries. Most of all I just need to have gas to get to him and would really like to be able to take my kids and let them eat at the hospital cafeteria tomorrow. It helps break up the monotony of the hospital for them but they haven’t seen their dad in a few days and my autistic son isn’t coping well.

My PayPal is kworsham33@gmail.com and I have Venmo and Cashapp as well. I just have a card tied to my PayPal so it’s easiest. Any help at all is appreciated.

I think I’ve found my calling in life – helping the alone and abandoned street dogs of Thailand.

It’s well known that there’s stray dogs all over Thailand – known as Soi Dogs. In the tourist areas such as Bangkok, Phuket, Koh Samui etc – some of these dogs get lucky and are taken care of by one of the great charities operating in these areas.

However, since moving to a more rural area of Thailand, Huai Krot, I’ve noticed the dogs here seem to have it a lot harder. There’s no charities to take care of them and no tourists looking out for them. The vast majority of the Thai general public have their own concerns and worries and don’t see that taking care of the dogs (and cats, birds etc) is important or should concern them.

Dogs here, for the most part, get treated like pests, almost the same as rats and pigeons etc. They’re hit, kicked, have rocks thrown at them, cars hit them and don’t stop. A lot of them have skin problems or more serious injuries and very people try to help them. They’re also hungry and rarely have access to clean water.

There are some good people here who try to help and feed the dogs out of their own pocket, but when you are struggling to feed yourself and your family, the help you can offer the dogs becomes quite limited.

Since the start of this year I’ve been trying to do as much as I can for the dogs in my local area. I provide as much food and water as I can and I’ve already garnered a bit of a reputation for being “that farang who helps the dogs”. I very much enjoy doing it and I love to see the difference in the timid dogs after you’ve fed them a few times.

However what I’ve been able to do is just a drop in the ocean compared to how many dogs here need some help. I’ve talked about doing something properly for quite a while now – and I think there’s no better time than now to get started helping the dogs of Huai Krot and the wider area.

I’ve also seen some dogs in pretty horrendous states including a dog that had been savaged by a pack of other dogs and had its rear left leg almost ripped off. Helping this dog was well out of my scope – but I hope in the future I will be able to help every dog that needs it.

The eventual goal would be to have a proper facility for homing and taking care of any local dogs that need it. But to get started I’m going to concentrate on feeding, watering and providing medicine and medical care for as many dogs as possible. We are trying to raise $5000 to pay for the following;

• $2000 for food and water supplies including bowls • $2000 for medicines – primarily Bravecto – for helping with Mange which is very prevalent around here. This would also include Tick and Flea medicines/collars • $600 for a Motorbike with Sidecar for transporting large amounts of food – and also for transporting dogs to the vet when needs arise • $400 – the remaining $400 would be kept in reserve for any unplanned emergencies or unexpected costs etc

I am jumping into the deep end here. I just want to help the dogs living around here as they are out of reach of most of the major charities and seem forgotten about. This is just the beginning with the end goal eventually being that we are able to open a facility to not only help dogs but home them as well. This is far down the line though and we need to start somewhere. So making sure as many dogs as possible are getting regular food and water and have access to medications to improve their quality of life would be a good place to start.

Hopefully some people feel the same and will be able to help us on this journey.

We've been in a bad situation since my husband lost his job, we are moving to a cheaper apartment but can't leave until July.

Can someone please help to feed my two kitties?

Comment what you’re thankful for!

Ends 8pm tonight 1 lucky winner!

UPDATE : WINNER - u/patient-scorpio

Right now I’m sorta stuck in place. For context, I’m sleeping in my car until the 1st. My car is incredibly low on gas and I don’t have money on me. If anyone has like $25 or so to spare, I’d greatly appreciate it. I have no problem providing further detail, my brains just running a mile a minute right now and I’m honestly desperate. If it needs to be repaid, I’d be happy to do that on the 27th, but right now I’m just in a bit of trouble

I hate to do this, I hate being in a position where I'm asking for money. But I'm genuinely skint. I used to work as a labourer for a free lance company that specializes in trade work however due to the boss not earning enough work from customers he has laid alot of people off including me.

This has effected me as I've had to cancel my driving lessons as I can't afford them anymore, I'm in debt to my parents because I can't afford to pay lodge.

Once again, I hate to ask for money but I'm just in such an awkward situation. £5, £10, heck even if it's below £1 I'll be greatful.

Here's my PayPal if you want to help but don't feel pressured to:

Would anyone care to help out with $20-$25 so I can delivery some groceries and eat for the next couple days that I'm not able to work?

Hello, I am in need of some help here.

We got a 72 hour shut off notice for our electric bill, and my sister doesn't get paid until Wednesday. Here is proof of the price and such. We need 273.81, our gas is already off so I can't afford this too...

If you can donate anything I'll be willing to draw you a anime sketch or something as payment (I feel terrible with asking for help like this) But It should be above 30 dollars due to me also trying to set up commission prices.

My PayPal is here if you can donate anything... Thank you so so much.

Edit: Me and My sister have called almost every place asking for help, They either never respond, not taking applications or they are no longer in service. (We had our water off for the whole month of April, trying to get help but no luck until my sister was able to pay it this month, now we don't have any gas either.) The only reason why I am asking is because I have nothing else but to ask. I understand you may think I'm lazy or stupid, and I just want to say I'm sorry for wasting your time.

I'm student based in India. I rescued a chow (name - GIMBLE) from a abusive owner. Initially, things were good after the rescued but due to GIMBLE's medical needs, my finances got disturbed and I have gotten into a temporary financial crisis for now.

Gimble still needs cherry eye surgery at the soonest. So, I'm here asking for donations.

Hey everyone, my state is being devastated by floodings and half of it is underwater. My city itself is 80% covered by water and lots of people lost everything.

Hi there, I’ve recently moved back in with my mom and younger brother and times have been tough. Don’t want to go all sappy on you so I’ll just say we are struggling to make ends meet. We just got accepted for SNAP but are waiting for the card to come in the mail. The church run food bank in town is only open on Thursdays and we have enough food to feed my brother until then but not my mom and me. My mom says she is fine going hungry but She needs to eat.

Any help, anything at all, would mean everything to me and I’m more than willing to pay back when I get back on my feet.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope you have a fantastic day!

Need to make $

Hey everyone! I know this post might be kind of odd and not even sure this would be the right place to post this! I lost my job in February due to child care issues, I finally found a work from home job that I start training on the 13th… won’t get my first check until the end of the month. I have 4 kids and myself in my home. I need to make some money. Any ideas? I need to come up with money so my internet doesn’t get shut off tomorrow.. if it gets shut off I won’t be able to work 😭 And just some funds to get food and t.p and stuff. I’m really struggling 😭 Some very kind people helped me with some food about 2 weeks ago. But we have nothing again, the little we have had I have fed the kids, I have not eaten anything in 2 days! I have gone to the local food pantries as well, they are once a month and it’s first come first serve. And I don’t have much family, only my mom and she is on ssi on a fixed income 😭 and she doesn’t live close to me! Does anyone possibly have any jobs I could do? Not sure what I could do online to make money. I could make a banner for you for your business I can make resumes I can make important phone calls for you

These are just some ideas 😂 I am pretty much willing to do anything except show my tatas 😂

Or any advice? I do not have a vehicle so any of the services like Uber/ door dash etc. I am not able to do. What would you do if you had to come up with money quickly? I have been taking surveys online but they only pay like .15 and end up being disqualified from them. I also don’t have much of anything to try to sell that is worth any value.

I am not asking for anyone to give me any money, I am asking if anyone has any jobs I could do…I will work for it! no scammers please!! I am desperate and this is very embarrassing!! I am really hungry and very stressed that my internet will get shut off and I won’t be able to stay my new job!
