where to start? my ex-husband and i (together since 2000, married since 2001, divorced in 2012 and reunited in 2013) lost everything we had less than a year ago due to an unfortunate event...and we had it all! we had built a business over 10 years that was very profitable (grew 300% in one year), owned our own home with a huge yard, three new vehicles in the driveway...blessed with a child in 2010...we were the home and family all the kids called "mom and dad"; sports practices and games, sleepovers, weekends, holidays and just plain fun. we had it all! then there was the accident...a child ran out in front of my husband on his way home and he couldn't swerve in time to miss him...he clipped him and the child was injured. of course my husband immediately stopped and helped; the police and ambulance were called and thankfully the child was okay...injured, but okay. my husband came home a mess...completely sick about the whole incident and while trying to comprehend what had just happened, the police show up and arrest him...with the local news station filming the whole thing! (they filmed him being arrested, our home and our business vehicles which had all our company info on them.) the news station broadcasted that he left the scene of the accident after hitting and injuring a child...they broadcasted false information! the whole city seen these false accusations and we lost 90% of our clients...in less than a year, we lost everything we had and have had to move in with a friend with what we could fit on a trailer. our home was foreclosed on, our vehicles repossessed and reputations destroyed all because of false information. we lived on savings for a year before that was drained and now we our in a place we never would imagine being...so i am asking for help. 

my goal is $2500. enough for a deposit and first months rent...for my family their own place rather than a room at a friends. i don't know how to do this...i don't even know where to begin...but help would be appreciated...and paid forward when able. 

thank you!

I live in Lower Hutt, Wellington, New Zealand. My family has to move out by the 28th of December. All of our money is going towards that. I have a 6 year old brother and two very stressed out parents. Any donations would help. Please PM me if you live in Wellington NZ and can donate. Thank you very much. I just want a nice Xmas for my family

Hello! And thank you for your concern,

We are a family of 4, with twin 3-year olds. My husband works, but has been through 4 job changes in the past 8 years, with long periods of unemployment in between. I make and (try to) sell products on Etsy for financial subsidy, however I have yet to be successful there. I am also working on starting a YouTube channel for this reason.

We have been living paycheck to paycheck over the years, which has been hard - but manageable, however the past couple years have been very financially straining due to unexpected life events (failed business venture, car troubles & home repairs, death in the family), which have hindered our ability to catch up. The debt piles up as we struggle to pay our bills, even using credit cards. But the credit is now full and we are buried.  I don’t know how to climb out, every step up I take, it seems I fall twice as hard after.

Financial stress has taken a toll on all of us, on our mental and physical health & well-being, and our relationships with each other. I feel hopeless most of the time. I want so badly to get back on track, so that we may have a savings account for our children, and help others in need; family, friends, and strangers. Your time and generosity is immensely appreciated, and from the deepest part of my heart, I thank you.
 
Sincerely,
A Struggling Family

Hi Everybody!

Both my husband and I were made redundant over a year ago. We have managed to make an income for ourselves to survive and live with family. My 72 year old mom however has lost her lifepartner recently and his kids had forced him to write her out of the will and has denied her access to their home. We have to help her with all her expenses of which the medical expenses is quite a lot as she has diabetes and an eye condition and we are broke at the moment. She is very depressed and has threatened suicide many times. It breaks my heart.

Any little bit will help us at the moment to help her find a place to stay and with her meds! It's will be greatly appreciated!

Hello. My name is Kateryna. I live in Ukraine. I am 39. I have got 2 daughters -5 and 8 years old. In June 2018 my husband left us and took all the money we had in a bank, our car and l left us with debt. He took a great amount of money in credit in the bank before leaving us. And now I have to pay the money back as nobody can not find him and his phone number is changed. The creditors began to terrorize me requiring to pay money back. I don't have €36000. I earn only 200€ a month. I asked fot help all my friends, relatives but they haven't  help me because they realised that I will not give them money back. My parents are pensioners and they don't have a possibility to help me. If I don't find the money as soon as possible  I can loose  everything especially my grandmother's present -  the flat where I and my children live. Every single day when my phone rings I am afraid to answer the call. I don't know what to do. I am afraid of my daughters' life. The police can not help me to solve the problem because  all the documents about my husband's  credit are legitimate. Please, help me. I beg you. Please.

Firstly, thank you for reading my post.

I'm a single mum and desperate for some help to get out of thousands of pounds of debt. It started 10 years ago when I was young and stupid with money however as much as I try to pay it off I'm just not getting anywhere. I work but this only just covers the bills and all my minimum payments so whenever there's something unexpected to pay for I just end up getting into more debt. Now I'm in a situation where I can't even afford all the minimum payments so I've taken out loans to pay off loans and have nowhere else to go now. I'm late on some payments and have no one to ask for help. I have learnt so much in the last 10 years and if I can just get the debt paid off then I can have a completely fresh start and won't have the worry and stress of how I'm going to afford the food shopping or a winter coat for my young son. I won't have the monthly payments to worry about so then I'd actually have money after paying bills to treat him to a day out somewhere or even just a comic in the corner shop (something we have a tantrum over every time we go in there) I really am desperate or I wouldn't be here, I've had several panic attacks over the last couple of weeks and I'm really not sure how I'm going to get myself out of this mess. I really am begging, for the first time in my life I'm putting my pride to one side and realised that I can't do this by myself, as much as I want to be a good role model to my son and stand on my own two feet, there's just no possible way of me paying this off by myself. Anything that you can spare will be massively appreciated, and I make a promise that if I ever manage to get this paid off then I will do my very best to help as many other people as I can in similar situations. I realise I'm rambling on now so thank you so much for reading, I will be eternally grateful if you can help me, this is my PayPal link:

Hi all,

I realize it is a busy time of year for everybody but am begging for help. I am trying to set up a fund to help victims and survivors of human trafficking. There are so many people out there right now who are scared, lost and hopeless and i am asking for donations to help try and save them.

Please, if you could spare even a dollar to help give some hope to these people it would be so appreciated. Think of being away, scared and worse from your own family particularly at this time of year. Thank you and peace to you and your family over the holiday season .
