I am a 52 your old Christain female. I was diagnosed with Major Depression over 20 years ago, as well as Spinal Stenosis. I have had numerous hospitlizations for my mental condition and it has caused me to be unable to hold down a job. I just was released the first of April 2012 from a facility that I had been in for 11 months. I had the blessing of being able to be qualifiy for a government voucher program that has set me up with an apartment and food stamps, but I have no resources to pay for medicines or daily living expenses. Mental illness has a HUGE stigma in society. People think that if you look Ok on the outside, there is nothing wrong with you, or they think if you have a mental illness you are "crazy" and some even think you might be dangerous. I would not wish this illness on anyone, but I wish people could somehow understand the depths and side effects of this disease. Most of my family want to "sweep it under the rug" I understand that to a point, but it hurts me deply that I'm not "normal" in their eyes. As for the Spinal Stenosis, it has caused degeneration of my spine , making it nearly impossible to stand or sit for long amounts of time. I find it hard to write these things about myself, I've always been one to try and make it on my own, but after a my divorce in 2003, it has been a DEEP struggle to provide for mysel even the most basic of daily needs, I know that God will take care of me and maybe this is one way of Him doing that. Maybe He directed me to this website. I have read others stories and they are heartbreaking, I pray God will provide for them as well. Any amount of financial assistance would be beyond deep appreciation!!!!! God bless you!!!!!
just wondering if there is anyone or anyway to get or apply for financial help for a disabled person. I do get disability every month, but, wondering if there is someone that helps out more so that I can do things I dream of while I still can. smileydimples63@hotmail.com
I really need financial assitance I am 51 years old and I have stage 4 esophageal cancer. I have 4 children, ages 10, 13, 15, and 23 years old. I do get disability, but it doesn't quite cover all my expenses. The most troubling assistance I need is gas to get back and forth to chemo. It is 65 miles each way, and I go three days every other week. The cancer center gives me 30.00 but that doesn't quite cover it, even though this is a big help and I do appreciate it.
I am a disabled man who has a family of four and two kids and my wife who also is diabled with diabetes wich she goes to dialysis every other day for and now i have been told i have heart disease after suferring but surviving two heart attacks at 40 yrs old. Our medical bills are through the roof and we both have back pays owed to us for together over 100,000 but it is dagging on month after month after month and we are so in need of any kind of financial help to get us through this. Let it be known all any help will be paid back in future when get backpays. As of right now we are going in debt a thousand dollars a month and i have no idea how many months and how we will make it without losing our home and belongings. Please if anyone can hep us we would be eternally greatful. God Bless
I know it is afterChristmas but we are in serious need of at least 300 for rent, we have the rest and this will keep us from being evicted. Our court date is January 9th and we were trying to solve this on our own without having to ask for outside help. I have no family here or in a position to help. We would be grateful and would pay it back. As the time draws closer it gets harder to stay focused and not worry.
The sources typically available are low on funds or out at this time and those willing can not do anything until after the 9th.
Haven't heard from anyone either from the bank (they are supposed to call today) or here (Aidpage). I wonder if I have to be a single mom, pregnant with young kids that need gifts for Christmas to have a reply. I had been doing really well getting the bills paid and improving the credit score. As a result of the loss of my wife's job, the emergency account has been wiped clean as well as the retirement account. If anyone can help either financially or with a better paying job, I will greatly appreciate it.
Hi,
My friend is in dire need of assistance to pay her rent this month. She is trying to get her life back in track and is running into many roadblocks. She's tried a few agencies but the only way they can help her is if she gets an eviction notice or has one served. Hello??? That is what she's trying to avoid! Any advice on where I can direct her? Oh, she is living in Reynoldsburg OH
I lost my house and we have to be out by September the 18th 2011, We have been blessed with another home to move to, but after I pay first months house payment and lawyers fees, I will not be able to afford moving expenses. We receive Social Securtiys Survivor Benefits as I am widowed with 3 boys with special needs, FASD, Tourettes and Crystal Meth with FAE. I have tried to find a way, even trying to sell my personal possessions, to make the money we need for moving. I need help, or we will lose the rest of everything we have left. Ps I am a covering and modest dressing Christian woman.
I am also a diabetic with onset of Osteoporosis, so I cant lift a lot of heavy things. Our new home is 5 hours away in the UP of Michigan near Marquette, I have only two options, have someone rent us a truck and drive it for us, or have a self move company bring a trailer here and we can pack it ourselves and they will move it, either way we are talking $1500.00 with a Uhaul or Budget Rental (including gas) or $1780.00 with the Upak from UPS Freight. I have called everywhere, churches, salvation army, St. Vincent De Paul, DHS, I am at a dead end, Please , Please, Please, can someone help us! We just want to get out of here and into our new home.
I am homeless and in desperate need of finding financial assistance for a 1 bedroom apt/house. I was removed from my basement apartment of three years on 8-2-11 by the Housing Preservation Development (HPD) because, they said it was an illegal apartment and didn't have two egresses.
They said it was for my safety. I found the apartment through a real estate broker and paid one month advance, two months security and one month broker’s fee. My landlord has disappeared and refuses to give me back my two months security deposit. I have since been placed in an HPD shelter which is a rundown hotel in Manhattan NY. It does not have a television, AC, or fan. The room is just big enough for a bed, dresser and small refrigerator. The room also, has one window which does not have a screen.
Also, there is a community bathroom which is full of defecation and roaches. My room the refrigerator is full of dead roaches and eggs. The bathrooms do not have toilet tissue, nor was I given any toiletries or food since I have been here.
I was told I would meet with a social/case worker once a week and he would help me. I have not met with anyone as of yet. When I do ask where he is I was told on vacation and no one knows when he will return.
I have been hospitalized twice because I have had both of my hips replaced prior and the stress and aggravation caused my left leg to swell up. I spent 4 days in the hospital for that and high blood pressure which is also a result of the above.
After returning to the shelter I became severely depressed and suicidal. I have since been hospitalized a second time for physic evaluation. Nonetheless, I'm back in the shelter after three days of evaluation.
This place is like a war zone, there is constant arguing and fighting among the residents, the place is full of flies, and the bathrooms are a nightmare. My room feels like a furnace because there is no air, I can barely breathe.
I have contacted HPD several times but, they are rude and treat me like I garbage. I did nothing wrong and I don't understand how they could treat a human being like this. They have ruined my life. All of my possessions also were sealed in my apartment by HPD and I do not have any access.
Someone please help me to find the financial means to get out of here. I think I may really lose my mind if I don't. I receive a small pension and I am trying to save as much as possible. But, the shelter I am is in an expensive neighborhood and I can only buy prepared foods cause there is nowhere for me to cook.

My name is Mary, I am looking for financial assistance for my 22 year old son. He is morbidly obese, he is over 330 lbs, and only 5ft 5in, it may not sound bad but he can barely walk because his knees cannot carry his weight let alone exercise, he has been diagnosed with pre diabetes and the doctors tell him unless he losses@ 100 lbs he will definately get diabetes, My daughter is 25 and smart and beautiful college student who has never been on date because she is ashamed for her body she weighs 225 lbs and for lack of a better term has become a hermit,my mother died from complication from renal failure due to her diabetes, my sons colosterol is sky high and he has sleep apnea, he is too young to have all these medical problems, he has tried every diet there is and he sometimes loses up to 25 lbs but puts it back on again. He tried to get lap band surgery but our insurance will not cover, we even tried filing a petition, but it is an exclusion, he has went to one specialist who will do for out of pocket for 10,000..we do not have that kind of money. I myself am obese as is Rubens sister, I am 50 and have high blood pressure and knee issues, I am more concerned with the future of my children. Can someone please sponser this surgery for them. I want them to live a long healthy life and I am afraid with the surgery that will never happen. A doctor once told my son if he did not lose at least 100 lbs he will have a massage heart attack by the age of 30.
Hi, i don't know if people really get help here but i've tried everything else. I need financial assistance, i don't have a job so i can't pay u back, i have a huge family (also unemployed) so they can't pay u either. I can tell a long story but i know there are people probably far worse than me, i'm finding myself contemplating things i never thought i would. I just need to know if there is someone out there willing to part with their hard earned money in order to help someone they don't even know. I need ur help, i seem to have failed myself and family especially the younger ones, it gets harder to look at them everyday knowing i can't change things. I don't want to go into details, can somebody please help me. I'll appreciate any little because it really will help. Thank u
