since donations have pretty much stopped, im gonna rewrite this post as i’m kind of needing money to pay for bills and food and all kinds of stuff…
i’m a 15 year old afro latina girl who is unable to get a job. i live with only my mother who is currently jobless.
my mother is struggling to find a job and it’s likely we won’t find one for the summer, and she’ll be back on her feet in mid august since she’s a teacher.
and because she’s a teacher,
no she does not get pay during summer. we don’t get any money for the entirety of the summer. and i really don’t understand why i keep getting asked that
she is taking surveys and ubering and trying to make money but it isn’t enough money at all to pay for bills or food.
i have no ways to make money either, and i can’t get a job at age 15 in my city, it’s actually impossible
i really need money at this point. we have barely anything to actually get some and i’m weak from not eating much and i need money for anything like clothes, food, bills and even refilling medication soon.
all im asking is to just reblog this and spread it around if you can’t spare any money, i’m actually desperate
As y’all know, things have been…tough for me for awhile now.
Between my first seizure, sepsis, a brain cyst, a herniated disk, trigeminal neuralgia, severe disruption to my sleep schedule, more frequent dislocations, worsening fatigue, increasing pain, and more, my health has been a disaster.
On top of all this (and probably, at least somewhat, related to all this), I had a severe mental breakdown related to the anniversary of the last time I was raped. Though the initial breakdown eventually passed, I never recovered.
It’s been one thing after another on top of another for so long now. I haven’t had a chance to breathe, a chance to get better.
Now, I’ve become unable to work. I’ve been bed-bound most of each day for the past couple weeks. Today, I officially had to quit my job. I tried to take a leave of absence under FMLA, but none of my doctors would sign off on the paperwork. Each claims that my problems fall under a different specialty and that someone else should sign the paperwork.
For the past three years, I have been the sole provider for myself and my husband. My husband had to stop working three years ago due to his own health issues and only was able to start working again as of a month ago. He’s working as a substitute teacher which means his pay is inconsistent and not great.
On top of this, we will be losing insurance.
I don’t know how we’re going to manage. Between fucked up brain chemistry and our circumstances, I have been incredibly depressed and suicidal recently. I’m struggling to believe that anything will get better.
But, when the paranoia and anxiety release me temporarily, I’m able to see that there could still be good days ahead if I let myself get there. But, if I’m going to get there, I’m going to need help.
I need help to access medical care. I am on several medications that help manage various aspects of my mental and physical help. Many of these medications cause severe, potentially life-threatening, withdrawal if stopped abruptly. As of right now, I may be looking at having to stop one of my medications within the next few days as I’m not sure I’ll be able to afford it.
To anyone reading this, if you are able to help, even a little, I would so greatly appreciate it. Any contribution goes to supporting two queer, chronically ill, neurodivergent people get by during a trying time.
Hi, my name is Bee, I’m 23 and a single mom. I suffer from C-PTSD, and my son and I are losing our home.
Yesterday (4/2/2018), my roommates handed me a notice that terminates our housing agreement. My son and I, due to their family issues, need to leave/be gone by the 30th of this month. Prior to moving in on the stated date (10/23/2017), my son and I were homeless for a month after being evicted from our previous home that we shared with my mom and brother. My grandma allowed my mother to move in with her, but my family does not want to help otherwise. We were couch hopping, staying with friends, or my grandma would take my son in and I would have to sleep in the car. We live in the suburbs of Chicago and the winter was very cold.
Currently, we have no place to stay and have bad credit due to my dad, but my mother is trying to use her tax return to pay off some debts so we can find a place to stay by April 30th. That’s where we need your help.
My mom and I both have credit scores in the 500’s and the lowest credit score needed to rent an apartment or townhome is 650. We need to stay in the area for work, and the cheapest townhome we could find is $1,349 a month. In order to get In to the townhome, we need to pay 2 months rent, plus a $70 background check each for both her and I. Below is the townhome cost, and my credit score.
The combined cost of the background check and 2 months rent is $2,838.
Currently, we only have $1,000 and we need to use that to pay off a few bills she has in order to raise her credit score. My mom works 3 jobs And none of them pay very well. My mom is a teacher’s aid for disabled students in an elementary school, she cleans houses, and she works part time at Kohl’s. Due to harassment by my ex, and parenting full time, it has been difficult to find a job. However, I am supposed to start at a childcare place on the 15th for $9/hr from 11 am to 4 pm.
None of these incomes combined will be able to make enough to get into a place on time, so we are coming here to ask for help to raise $3,000. The full $2,838 will be for the home, and the extra $62 will be for emergencies or food, but is not necessary.
Currently, all I have to accept donations is squarecash and PayPal, though I can only provide my PayPal through private message, as it has my legal name attached to it and I need to keep this anonymous as I can.
Please consider donating, or even just reblogging this will help. I can give my personal Tumblr to anyone that asks for it, and more proof, and any other information you need to the best of my abilities, through private message. This is the only way I can ask for help, so please spread this around! I will add donation totals to this post as I go.

Thanks to 3 donators so far, together they have raised up $250/$3000!
We can take the first step and submit background checks!
Hey, just a reminder we only have 22 days to raise enough money for my mom and son and I to get into the apartment! Please donate if you can, and if not, please spread this around
We haven’t had any extra donations since the last update in this post last week, we only have a short amount of time to make at least the $2,838, and when I start my job in childcare I wont be getting paid until the 27th. We could really use the help, please please please help us.
4/14/2018
We received another $30 donation, and we are at $280/$3,000!
Every cent counts, thanks to those donating and those spreading the post around!
I recently got a venmo! I am @beesleeps on venmo
Hey, only a little under 2 weeks until we’re out, even if we don’t make the goal, we could really use as much as we can get! Please please consider donating, and if you cant, please reblog!
Hey guys on a lighter note, my uncle loaned us a little over a $1,000 and my mom saved up some as well, plus the $250 already donated brings the total amount that we have to $1,500, knocking the amount we need to make this payment from $2,838 to $1,338.
My cockerel, Peter Quill, is on Death Row. My neighbors keep complaining about the noise he makes, because when you move to the countryside you apparently don’t expect animals to make sounds.
This is a very long shot, but if anyone in the UK wants a cockerel – preferably someone with experience and space to keep chickens, or at least someone who’s willing to learn – please do get in touch with me. My mum’s also going to be putting up adverts, so we’ll see what we can do.

Please help me. I’m in desperate need. I’ve been house bound for 3 weeks. 95% of that time I’ve had to spend in bed because moving around is too painful.
Please boost this, even something so small as £1 or $1 will help me get that bit closer to being mobile again. Please.
Before court deadline on 19 Mar (ET), crucial medicolegal assessments must be completed.
LESS THAN 1 HOUR LEFTto raise $1,650 for the appointments. Any more delays could UTTERLY DESTROY my compensation claim & THE REST OF MY LIFE.
I will be bedbound for the rest of my life because of an accident when I was 17. The compensation I could receive may be in the millions
From now till the day I die, I’ll need 24 hour care that I can’t afford.
Without compensation, I’ll suffer lifelong neglect. I fear losing cognitive ability to the point that I could have NO LEGAL RIGHTS.
My compensation case depends on CRUCIAL medicolegal assessments to decide if the accident caused my condition.
THIS WEEK is my LAST CHANCE to attend assessments before COURT DEADLINE on March 19 (ET).
By end of TONIGHT, another $1,650 MUST be raised for paramedic transport to the appointments.
If this is delayed, breaching the court deadline could lead to my compensation being IRREVOCABLY LOST
***PLEASE DONATE HERE*** Automatic counter must reach: at least $34,439 AUD To exclude previous donations that have been spent.

Today will make or break the rest of my life.
LESS THAN 1 HOUR LEFT to raise $1,650, or EVERYTHING RAISED for my compensation claim could be ALL FOR NOTHING.
I AM LITERALLY BEGGING FOR YOUR HELP. I’m ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED. I DO NOT want to spend the rest of my life relying on donations, wondering if I could DIE FROM DEHYDRATION if I lose disability care. I could be EVICTED TO THE STREETS without the paid cleaning that I can barely afford. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE IN CONSTANT FEAR THEIR WHOLE LIFE.
***PLEASE DONATE HERE*** Automatic counter must reach: at least $34,439 AUD To exclude previous donations that have been spent.
An accident has left me bedbound, and compensation could be MY ONLY CHANCE to escape LIFELONG NEGLECT.
March 1: LESS THAN 1 HOUR LEFT to raise **$770** for paramedic transport to medicolegal appointments. Otherwise, I’d risk HOMELESSNESS & DANGEROUS NEGLECT throughout THE REST OF MY LIFE.
$22 received in the last 3 hours. LESS THAN 1 HOUR LEFT to raise $748!!! I am absolutely PLEADING for your help. PLEASE, please donate something!!!
Five years ago, a fall down a staircase left me confined to bed for life.
I now need 24 hour care that I can’t afford. [Medical reports].
I could suffer severe dehydration if carers don’t provide food/water to my bed; homelessness would kill me and I can’t rent without paid cleaning.
After the accident I’ve so far NEVER been more than months from risking homelessness or serious harm
Whether I receive compensation for a lifetime of healthcare will depend on paying paramedic transport fees to medicolegal assessments; the fees need to be raised through daily goals.
Delays could: lose my compensation case, and require me to pay $20,000+ in Defendant’s legal fees. It would also RUIN THE REST OF MY LIFE.

I am ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED of losing this compensation case. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life relying on donations. I NEVER AGAIN want to live in fear of DYING from dehydration or HOMELESSNESS. Losing this court case would UTTERLY DESTROY THE REST OF MY LIFE.
Since they moved to Ukraine, Esenia says life is “only a little bit better.” Neither Anastasia or Esenia can work, and rely on online freelancing work to make ends meet. Esenia no longer teaches a class full of pupils – she now has to teach her daughter. Shops try to charge the couple double the price they charge Ukranians for the same goods. They cannot access healthcare. They have also been attacked.
“We can’t go back to Russia. In our situation, we’d lose our child, because we are a gay couple. It’s gay propaganda to have a relationship. She’s 11-years-old. And we’re family. And we lose a child just because we have our family. So we really can’t stay here because we don’t have anything, and they don’t care. We can live here, but we don’t have any rights here. We’re a problem that should be solved. That’s why we just sit quietly and stay at home.”
In a bid to cement their status, some have married in order to secure residency, with others falsifying papers. But Esenia and her family do not have that choice.
“It’s a smart decision to not show that you’re a lesbian. But sometimes you just get tired, and tired of lying. Sometimes you think, “maybe we should break up, just to save everyone,” – but that’s cowardice, it’s a lazy decision,” she said.
“We have stopped thinking about our future, we’re just thinking about our child. We’re really hoping to live somewhere where we won’t be hated. We’re really aiming for that, and it’s harder than it was before. I don’t know really how we can live better here.”
In the hope that the family can move to safety at some point in the future, they are asking for those with any disposable money to donate to their FundRazr page.
But until the family make the extra cash that they need to flee, they have one message for LGBT Russians: do not come to Ukraine.“People will make the same mistake we did. They will go somewhere they can go easily. They wonder, why didn’t you go elsewhere? The reason is that it’s impossible,” she said.
