Unbreak My Heart, Asking For $1,050,360 USD, No Amount Too Small
#1

Hello.  This is not a joke.  I work as much as I can while not quite qualifying for any disability.  I'm desperate for $1500 for urgent car repairs.  Beyond that, I need to pay off an $850 high interest car repair bill, pay off the remaining $250 on a defaulted payday loan, and pay my sub-landlord off $560 in arrears.  If you want to be a total angel, chip in an extra $1000 so I can do preventative maintenance on the 1993 car.  Obviously I need to start saving for another car at some point and even though it's been on my mind for 2 years, I barely make ends meet.  I also owe a friend $2300 for back rent in 2016 during a work shortage.  Someone else did me a lot of favors and I would like to repay them $2000 too because it's my mom and she would like it back, even though she freely gave $200/month to me during my disability claim so I would only have to work part time that year, in order to try to get approved for disability income (but SSA denied it anyhow).  If you can chip in an extra $40,000 that could get bio-Mom out of her current ugly condo and into a place that has some character and horizon.  She chose to move fast because a hotel was being built practically in her old backyard.  But moving fast meant buying a condo she has not been real happy with for a year.  Her neighbors are all Trumpers and the condos are cookie cutter.  She sublets a room to a Mexican biologist who is immigrating here, who we've known for decades.  Bio-Mom is a former Peace Corp worker (Mexico and South Africa teaching English) and has given presentations to city clubs on practical ways to keep the air in our town clean and beautiful.  Her health is good, although she has been through quite a lot of small-ish medical stuff.  If you can afford $500,000 then you can help our Mexican immigrant biologist, who needs money and friends to set up house in Chile, where her soon-to-be ex-husband absconded with her 13-year old son.  He absconded with the child and filed for divorce because our friend did not want to serve as a maid in her mother-in-law's home, which she has already done before and was not welcomed nor appreciated.  This friend is working (inasmuch as her papers allow her to) for a non-profit organization that helps the local watershed, and the organization has grown to include many Latino-American volunteers, now with literature in both languages, thanks to our friend.  She is dying inside without her son, but would need a team to help her and that is what the money would go to, to help them all get there and get set up and stay at least 5 years until he is 18.  My current housemate needs $400 to get his daughter an exercise bike and to get his own refrigerator.  He is on long-term disability and was unable to earn much as a Salvation Army bell ringer because of the pandemic so he was not able to get those things yet.  My current sub-landlord needs $500 cash only (he only takes cash for anything ever) for special meals for his brother who is in assisted living with severe Parkinson's.  My sub-landlord likes to buy him his favorite meals when he visits, but his budget is limited.  It is the one thing they can share and enjoy, since his brother is bed-bound and can barely move.  He also needs $1000 cash only for a deposit for the landlord to allow 2 pet Cavalier King Charles Spaniels from the NW (American) part of Cavalier Rescue USA. This sublandlord has worked very hard doing appliance repair for many years and also spends a lot of time educating others about his conservative political beliefs.  He grew up in a non-religious Jewish family.  As for me, I am a longtime recovering alcoholic, female, Spanish-speaking, piano-playing 50-something who has sang in numerous Christian church choirs, volunteered for years for the local watershed, for inclement weather shelters, for homeless shelters, and have performed daring rescues of dogs and cats in need, sometimes in cooperation with police and the Humane Society.  I sold my first house and lost my second home in 2008 after corporate downsizing. I was injured in 1972, 2009, and 2014, and each one was real bad but I'm still mobile and able to work doing care giving and/or office support when I can find it.  If you want to buy my beloved home back for me, $400,000 would probably get the new owners to cooperate.  They did assign me first right of refusal, but they are still there and I am still strapped.  It would be nice to pay off $100,000 in student loans.  Thank you for reading this and God bless you if you can help.  Please specify which cause you want to help so I can allocate it.  As for my own urgent needs, there is no amount too small - it all goes to rent and car repair lately.  Heart Idea Heart
