Hello, I know it might be a long shot with so many in need. I don't have a long sad story we are just a small family who struggles like the rest of us, I don't need anything for me and my husband it's really just the joy of our 2 kids being happy. I have a 5 yr old son (size 5/6) and a 9 year old daughter (size 10/12) they are not picky on toys anything fun would do but they both could really use socks and my daughter could use a new hoodie (size 10/12). We have donated some of our old toys to Read More

We have donated some of our old toys to help pass along the love in hopes another family can use them but at this time i am also asking for just a few things for them. Thank you for your time and consideration. God Bless

Need help to pay rent so my 2 kids and husband and I do not become homeless. Within 2 weeks both mine and my husband's vehicles broke down. We have been struggling with sharing a car we bought to get us to work, but it has not been running reliably and have had to pay for repairs to it too. Then to top it off my husband hurt his back and has had to be off work for a week. Due to all this we have gotten behind on our rent and received an eviction notice the day before Thanksgiving. We have no Read More

We have no family able to help and no idea where to turn at this point. Our landlord is unwilling to wait till our next payday in 10 days for the $1000 we currently owe.

About two months ago, I lost my job. As a result, I fell behind on many bills. I kept my head above water, but as you might expect, fell behind. I have recently found a job, and I will be able to catch up, but in the meantime, I managed to overdraft my account. This occurred both by a bank error that was my fault. The bank has only been able to help a little, as it wasn't their mistake. My first paycheck will arrive toward the middle of the month, but until then, I have no way to take care of Read More

My first paycheck will arrive toward the middle of the month, but until then, I have no way to take care of the balance in my account. This will actually cause my upcoming paycheck to be unavailable to me, as it will likely only cover slightly more than my overdraft. I am a father of 6, with 2 at home, and Christmas is already taken care of via help from family and friends. They've helped all they can at this point, however, and can't help me with my current issue. My bills are sort of paid, but I'm hanging on by a thread. All I ask is a little help fixing this issue, as I will soon be able to get back on my feet with my own income.

Told myself my best bet to living on disability was to downsize into an RV. Rent will be cut in half or more. I can travel and start living again, maybe even meet someone along the way as I've been alone now for 8yrs. I did theath over and over. I knew it was going to be a struggle for a year, maybe two because my best bet also included saving for a trick to haul this travel trailer of mine. But you say struggle and know nothing of it until you are in the midst of struggling. I'm not one to get Read More

Told myself my best bet to living on disability was to downsize into an RV. Rent will be cut in half or more. I can travel and start living again, maybe even meet someone along the way as I've been alone now for 8yrs. I did theath over and over. I knew it was going to be a struggle for a year, maybe two because my best bet also included saving for a trick to haul this travel trailer of mine. But you say struggle and know nothing of it until you are in the midst of struggling. I'm not one to get too wishy washy. I was raised to stand up,buckle in and do what needs to be done. I am a survivor in so many different ways now. But being the best at taking what you have and making it work is completely different once you become familiar with what it ACTUALLY takes to permanently live in a 21ft 5th wheel without the means to pull it! Since May I have had to move 4 times. Didn't factor in how others would find my disabilities to be revolting and uncomfortable.To live so close to your NEW neighbors who are VERY used to their peace and quiet, no one was prepared for how loud I can be when dealing with this pain I am suffering through. It's a horrible debilitating pain generating from my lower lumbar through the nerves in My legs and feet..not to mention the depression and acute anxiety! I have not been well since living alone, sleeping for days at a time, unable to physically move as the pain is enough to make the Pope curse.
Without knowing my refrigerator and now my thermostat that runs my propane furnace is ran off the solar panel and trying to live cheaper is living further from town,now gas and doing laundry are a factor. Then my middle son got married last month, My GREAT IDEA for struggle and save for the truck is now and still only struggle. No saving has been possible to the point of seeing it never happening. Only struggle. I am to the point where thoughts of things I wouldn't be proud of are coming to mind in order to save what little sanity I have left to get the funds I desperately need to fullfill any kind of life worth living. If there is anyone who may have an older pickup running well enough to pull a light load without breaking down in the next 3000 miles and would like to donate it to my search for peace and sanctuary, I would be so very thankful and appreciative of you for the rest of my days. Don't care about looks or age of pickup. Just that it runs well enough to get me to the mountains of Colorado without breaking down and gets 13miles to the gallon or better. A fifth wheel plate would be a plus but please if it hasn't got one don't let it stop you from offering. One thing a day at a time will be there just as well. Thank you for all who have read this in hopes of helping someone. May God bless you in everything you do. Peace to ALL!

I am battling colon cancer, which has spread to the outside of my spine. I am a single mother with seven children ages 5yrs to 15yrs. I have employment with Paul Mitchell School, Rexburg. I am not able to work right now due to violent vomiting and being extremely weak from not being able to eat. I attempt to eat every day, but nothing stays down and it is very painful when I begin vomiting. I need my car in order to travel from SE Idaho to Salt Lake City, Utah for chemo treatments.

I am battling colon cancer, which has spread to the outside of my spine. I am a single mother with seven children ages 5yrs to 15yrs. I have employment with Paul Mitchell School, Rexburg. I am not able to work right now due to violent vomiting and being extremely weak from not being able to eat. I attempt to eat every day, but nothing stays down and it is very painful when I begin vomiting. I need my car in order to travel from SE Idaho to Salt Lake City, Utah for chemo treatments. However, because my body is so weak my liver and kidneys were beginning to shut down from chemo treatments and they had to suspend treatments until I am stronger. I have been to the emergency room three times recently in severe pain in my abdomen and lower back, coupled with vomiting constantly. I attempt to go to work as often as I can, but usually can only stay at work for two to three hours. My children are suffering as a result of my loss in income. I currently owe 2 car payments of $285.00 each. I owe two cell phone bills of $319.14 each and my phone is due to be shut off very soon I am certain. I owe rent for two months in the amount of $350 each month. I owe a power bill of $560. My children are active in sports, cheer leading, wrestling and football. I currently owe $720 in cheer leading fees, $285 in football fees and do not know as of this date what the fees for wrestling will be. I realize no one owes me anything in life. I also realize this is a lot to ask for help with. I realize there may be no one willing to help me and my family. However, any contribution toward any of the debts I have would be greatly appreciated. I have never been in a situation where I was unable to provide for my family and this is very humiliating for me. Normally, I am the one giving to others to allow them a little hand to help in their lives. To anyone willing to offer anything to my family, God Bless and keep you. Thank you from the bottom of my soul. I promise to become an angel when my health is back on track and I am able to return work and financially take care of my family again.

I am trying to help a family for Christmas. Amber and Gary are an amazing set of parents. They are a huge blessing to many. Gary works long long hours to provide for his family as Amber stays home to care for 5 of their own beautiful children but also 2 more beautiful children that they are in the process of adopting. They are loving and caring for these other two just like they are their own. The youngest is just barely a year old and has several medical issues that require them to travel 2 Read More

They are loving and caring for these other two just like they are their own. The youngest is just barely a year old and has several medical issues that require them to travel 2 hours (one way) away from their home twice a week. So any donations would be greatly appreciated for this very loving family. I have a list of the kiddos and the things they like and ages if you have any questions. Thank you and God Bless.

They have been my strength when I thought I had nothing. I would just like to see them smile Christmas day.anything would be appreciated.

Hello! I am disabled due to a disease that is terminal. A year ago my husband was diagnosed with cancer and hasn't been able to work since. He's been with the same employer for 26 years. All of his disability income has ran out as of August 2016. I have a 9 year old boy and a 12 year old daughter. They won't be able to have a Christmas this year. We also couldn't afford to buy school clothes or any shoes for them this year. I'm praying that someone will be able to get them some things they are Read More

I'm praying that someone will be able to get them some things they are in desperate need of.

They both need the same things. They need clothes, shoes, Pajamas, winter jackets, winter (waterproof) gloves, winter boots, scarfs, hats and even new backpacks.
Thank you & God Bless to everyone for even looking at my post.

I have 2 children ages 12( girl) and 7 (boy). A few months ago we found ourselves being forced to move due to a foreclosure on our rental. We have, after 2 months of having nowhere , finally found a place. For that I am grateful. This move has drained all of my resources and I have no idea how I'm going to manage Christmas. Although my kids told me not to worry about it because Christmas isn't about presents, me as a mother want them to have something ,especially after every thing they've gone Read More

Although my kids told me not to worry about it because Christmas isn't about presents, me as a mother want them to have something ,especially after every thing they've gone thru the last few months ...losing their home was very hard on them and I feel they deserve something to cheer them up ....I really dont want them going to school and having nothing to write when the teachers ask them to write about their Christmas . I have never had to ask for help before so really don't know where to turn ..Thank you for reading this.

Hello, I am a single Mom fighting for custody of my ten year old daughter, due to mistakes I made three years ago. She gets to come up from California to visit me during Christmas time for two weeks and we are both very excited. However, I make a modest salary (less than 25,000 a year) and because of the time of year her round trip plane ticket is going to cost me $350. I also am trying to pay off past family court fees and trying to afford current family court fees. When I look at those Read More

When I look at those numbers it is discouraging because I also wanted to be able to afford gifts and fun things for us to do while she is here. I want to make her short stay her memorable. This is the first time I have asked for this type of help. It is embarrassing but I want to do what I can to the Create new happy memories for her.

I will be honest I can't afford much with out me working. I'm looking for work right now. I have done all kinds of work. I even had my own auto shop in Washington that I started my self for almost 5 years before I shut it down to move back here to help my mom when she had some health issues.
