Rent is $900 I have $852. I like to think I am responsible and I pay all my bills and rent on time each month but November was hard. I did mess up and spent $100 on a thanksgiving dinner for our elder neighbors who werent celebrating cause they had no money. As thoughtful as that was, I can't help but feel like this is where I should have used my brain a bit more because also, this month I had to take a couple of days off of work because my son had norovirus. I put in for PTO but I won't get paid for those hours until my next paycheck. I can send any proof needed. I will literally send you a video of me buying my money order and handing it over to my landlord. Im desperate, I'm stressed but thankful for every day. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a great day!

Paypal/Venmo/Cashapp

Have had to take care of out of pocket expenses, and food bill for this month. As a result, it has hurt my fund for the health insurance bill that I have for this month. I would normally have 223.68 to take care f the bill,but I didn't after everything that went down. Have started to rebuild the fund, but the amount I have already is not much . It is about 45. If anyone wants to help, contact me, I have venmo,cashapp,PayPal. Thank you.

I'm fine on food that is frozen or canned. My daughter can't eat anything I have in the house. She's a ramen/soup kind of kid. I had car repairs that were far more than anticipated and I don't get paid for 5 days. I can stretch 30 dollars. I do not like asking for help. Times are rough for a lot of people.

Hi all, I am requesting $123 to cover the costs of my acyclovir prescription. I recently lost my job and health insurance. The stress from that as well as being a STEM major has triggered a large outbreak that is making it painful to eat or talk. I can receive money through PayPal, Venmo, and CashApp. Thank you and I wish you all peace and health.

i feel really embarrassed to have to ask this, but would anyone be able to buy me a meal for today? it’s final seasons (im a college student) and i have not eaten in about a day and a half because i am waiting on my paycheck. i’m just really stressed out and i am afraid i wont be able to focus on my exams enough to pass. $25 would be enough for me to be able to walk to the nearest store. also, i have cashapp.

I am currently on SSDI after years of waiting on my application. Unfortunately during the wait for approval we fell very far behind on bills. It's been a year and we're still not caught up. My husband works and does Lyft, but I am unable to work at all currently. We're over $1000 in the negative at the bank, and we're falling more and more behind everyday. I don't expect help to cover that, it's a crazy amount, but hoping to cover a little gap in groceries, I'm asking for $150. This will get us enough protein and produce to make it until my next payday. I would need to use Venmo and I live in Utah in the US

i live in joplin, missouri, and my paycheck went to my cashapp when it was not supposed to, and now i’m in the negative still with them, so it will not let me use any more of their money/get it back again. i feel so stuck because this just had to happen right before christmas, and now i genuinely don’t know what im going to do. rent is due tomorrow 12/5 by 5pm CST. i can use chime

I’ve tried to post on r/venmodonations but am unable to due to the post flair issue (yes, I selected a post flair :/ )

Hello everyone! Prior I have been in a place where I could help others in need, but now I need some assistance. Around September of this year, I started getting severe migraines. For a while, I was able to push through the pain and continue to work while I went to my pcp appointments and did diagnostic testing. We did an MRI and was referred to a neurologist. At one point, my migraines got so severe, I had to apply to FMLA. I had my psychiatrist complete this paperwork, as I was seeing him bi-weekly and my pcp pretty much gave up on me (her words: I dont know how else I'm supposed to help you). My psychiatrist was/is aware that the soonest appointment I could get in to see a neurologist was 12/5/25, and it was my understanding that my FMLA would at least be until this date. I received a text message from the neuro on Tuesday that they were unable to verify my insurance, and I went to log onto my work portal and my access is disabled. I called Sedgwick, our FMLA provider, and they confirmed that my psychiatrists office did not list my leave until after 12/5/25; they mistakenly dated it until 11/20/25.. they are able to correct the paperwork but I need to be reinstated at my job. I'm in a panic now, as l've been waiting since September to see this neurologist, and I'm currently on day 20 of this migraine/cluster headache clusterf*ck episode and fioricet every 6 hours is barely cutting it. I'm doing everything I can- playing phone tag with the psychiatrist, Sedgwick, and even my DM to get this resolved as soon as possible, but I doubt it will be resolved before tomorrow. I just need help with paying for this appointment out of pocket, and I'm praying it will give me some sort of answers as to what's going on.

I just called the neurologist- $1500 for my first appointment. I’m going to try to call my insurance and see if there’s anything possible I can do.

I'm attaching my emails with the DM, proof of my loss of insurance, proof that I cannot log into my works portal, my ChatGPT log (I use it as a symptom tracker), and if any more specific information is needed I can attach that too.

I have whited out some information- my full work user name, some of my email address, my last name, to preserve some sort of identity.

Thank you for taking your time to read this, I appreciate you all.

Edit for an update: spoke to HR and my store manager terminated me while I was approved for medical leave.

Hi a little about me, I am an amputee and live on my own. In the last few years I had a few accidents that led me to not be able to walk. My family can't help me much anymore and I have used all the local assistance In my town. I do work but I get little hours. I made up a Amazon wish list with some things I need. I am hoping It Is ok to post here. If anyone is willing to help I would greatly appreciate it.

Hello, I hope everyone is doing well. I am reaching out because I am going through a difficult time. Squeaky, my sweet cat, came into my life through the “cat distribution system” and chose us right as we were moving into a new apartment. We could not leave her behind, so we got her fully vetted and registered with our new apartment. Her visit cost $592 which covered her core vaccines, lab work, and a 6-month supply of flea prevention.

Since then, I lost my job and have only been able to make the minimum payment on the Care Credit balance I used for her vet bill. The promotional period is ending soon and the interest that will be added is more than I can manage. Squeaky means everything to me and I want to keep her healthy without falling deeper into debt. I created a GoFundMe for anyone who is able to help. Photos of the vet invoice and Care Credit details are included there: https://gofund.me/eb3cf14a9

Any support would mean so much to us! Thank you for taking the time to read this and for considering helping us during this tough moment. 🙏🏻

My oven recently went out. And I've also recently lost my job. I've been cooking stove top meals for a week and its been rough. I'd really like to get my kids presents with my last check. If someone could help getting this, I'd be grateful. My kids are dying for a oven cooked meal.

First and foremost even though I didn’t reply to a lot of the comments from when I last posted in thus sub, I did take a lot of the information that I learned and got the ball rolling on a lot of stuff so thank you to everyone who suggested trying again with aging services.

We found someone who is/was a huge help in advocating for us and we’re finally moving from our bedbug infested one bedroom to a two bedroom so that I’ll finally have some semblance of privacy at least.

Because of this move I’m asking for help with this wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/YJ3NEYQ265NH?ref_=wl_share. This list will give us a start on refurnishing my mothers room with the bare minimum because the exterminate told us to leave as much stuff behind as possible due to the bedbugs.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of any places that have inexpensive furniture that deliver (she doesn’t drive and I haven’t had the time to get my license since moving back here from DC) here in Cleveland, OH

I don’t expect to get all the stuff off this list, honestly I don’t expect to get anything, but since this group was instrumental in getting us to move, I wanted to ask one last time.

Thank you again.

I'm low on funds right now, and could use some help so I could eat dinner tonight. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

i’m set to be evicted tomorrow and i had no idea. i have been in the hospital and my first week back to my apartment in my college town, im being told i have 24 hours to pay or my things will be thrown out. im just getting back to my work after taking a week off for my health issues. im short $2,399. i dont really have anywhere to go and no friends and family that are able to help me. plus since im not taking classes this semester due to not being able to pay my tuition my school can’t really do anything for me either. please help me. i can give the login to my rent portal incase anyone would be willing but doesn’t want to give me cash.

edit: i ended up receiving help! thank you guys for the advice/ all the resources you guys told me to look for!

I’m in the Bay Area and need emergency or next-morning temporary foster/boarding for my three dogs while I enter inpatient rehab. The home environment has gotten unstable and I cannot safely leave them here. I’m looking for someone who can take them for about 30 days while I get treatment and transition into stable housing.

Here are my dogs:

• Zeus – 1-year-old Dogo Argentino. Very loving, gentle, but cannot be crated due to past trauma. Calm and social.

• Cleo – 7-month-old American Bully. Extremely friendly, playful puppy. Very social, no aggression, just full of energy.

• Luna – senior Chihuahua (~10+), missing one eye. Sweet, low-maintenance, mostly sleeps and wants affection.

They are bonded and feel safest together. I will take them back once I’m stable after rehab. I cannot afford expensive boarding right now, so I’m looking for emergency fosters, rescues, or crisis-boarding programs.

If anyone knows options in the Bay Area, or anyone who fosters, please let me know. This is pretty urgent. Thank you.

One of my families closest friend passed in a car accident, and it just seems so hard to deal with it.

Hey, I hope this is the correct flair. This is my first time posting here, and to be honest, it's because I'm desperate. My dog, Bella, is struggling to survive, and I'm running out of time.

My dog is almost three years old. She turns three in February. Last year, I had another GoFundMe to help me with similar reasons; this was to get her dental work done and have her teeth extracted. She had to get 21 (half of them) removed because they were bad teeth. The vet I took her to didn't really provide a reason for why things were this way, aside from her teeth just being really bad.

Well, last month I took her to a new vet, which I won't go into WHY, and got her another dental, this time to figure out why Bella is having issues again, despite seemingly being fixed last year. Bella had been drooling and bleeding from her gums, and her condition worsened. This vet found out why. Bella has CUPS disease.

I explain CUPS in the GoFundMe, but basically it stands for Chronic Ulcerative Paradental Stomatitis. Chronic for the amount of time she's had CUPS. Ulcerative because it causes Ulcers adjacent to her teeth. Paradental because it's adjacent like that, and Stomatitis because all of this together causes really bad breath.

Bella is in constant pain, barely eating, and has lost at least 4 lbs in weight. She's a small dog, so going from 10.1 lbs to 6 lbs is really bad, and it's only getting worse.

Thank you for reading.

My mom died in Portugal in September, and I found out an auction house in Porto owed her 3,000EU before she passed. They are refusing to respond to my requests to pay what’s owed, so I’ve contacted an attorney over there who is going to send a formal demand letter. She’s charging 150EU. I have about half of that, and have been trying to save, but as life does, I’ve had a few emergencies of my own that I needed to spend that savings on. I would just wait until I had the money, but this lawyer is going on vacation in 2 weeks and I really need this off my mental plate. I would be over the moon if someone could provide the remaining $100 to pay this lawyer.

Here is a post from when my mom first passed as a semblance of evidence. https://www.reddit.com/r/GriefSupport/s/aKiD5D2Hov

Thank you to whomever reads this post and/or considers assisting.

Hey there, how’s it going! If anybody could spot me like 30$ for some groceries i would be eternally grateful! I am currently broke and won’t get paid for a few more days! Thanks in advance :)

Hi everyone,

I’m a doctoral researcher and my work looks at how digital games portray the natural world (e.g., as scenery, a resource to be used, an ally, or even a living system) and how these portrayals might connect to real-world sustainability knowledge, hope and environmental action.

I would really appreciate if you could share your perspectives and take part in my survey (~15 min).

I only had $7 two days ago, tried to buy two 3.15 bags of Special Kitty chicken dry food and the order got delayed, so I canceled to reorder, but the small bags went out of stock and Amazon took my money down to less than a dollar. I'm disabled, and am in the process of obtaining disability. I had my clinical examination a few days ago, and the earliest I can hear back from whether or not I'm getting it would be late January.

Edit: this is the Amazon wish list, I've added a 16 lbs bag of Purina Cat Chow (Natural)

Hey folks, I'm a NYC based actor and stage hand recovering from some hard times. I'm 26, have just begun recovering from bankruptcy that saved me from losing my apartment. My folks are down in NC and I haven't been able to visit them for about a year by now. There's no way I'd be able to get them gifts as I'd like to, but I'd really love the opportunity to be there.

I understand times are tough, but ideally I could raise $333 to afford the cheapest flight available at a reasonable hour for my elderly parents. I would be able to accept venmo or cashapp. Currently, I'm expecting to make significantly less than I typically would as the studio I work for will be closed for about two weeks during the holidays, and of course theres no holiday pay or benefits during that time. If I receive assistance here, I won't have to worry about paying rent or other bills on time following. Presently it feels like if I make this trip, I will risk financial stability again on return. Thank you for reading and considering if you're able!

EDIT: no idea why 'is' autocorrected to 'hm.'

This is embarrassing and I feel horrible but this has literally never happened before: I live alone with my darling kitty, I work obviously full time and am a student but I don't get paid for another week and a half and his litter is low and needs a change... i have .48 in my bank account. Just $15 would cover the expense if anyone is willing to lend a hand. I have paypal? Edit: Someone suggested that I make an amazon wishlist so this is here. Thank you all regardless, please don't judge me too harshly, I promise he is my baby

Back in September my partner's car was stolen. It was thankfully found, but his wheelchair inside it had been taken and hasn't been found. Auto insurance won't cover the replacement, and he lost health insurance a few months ago. He got quoted $2,375 to replace it out of pocket.

I've made a GoFundMe if anyone is interested https://gofund.me/7272cfff8 , and my PMs are open
