Im in need desperately. Every week lately has been filled with stress and constant worry. Thats why im needing help. I have a very ill son who is in End Stage Renal Failure and requires Dialysis 3 times a week. We live in East Tx and his dialysis is in Dallas Tx, round trip its about 120 miles and we make that trip 3 times a week. I never know from one week to the next how I will get the money for gas to make the drive. Then I have to figure out how I will get groceries for the week. I am not able to work a full time job due to being at dialysis 3 days a week. I do jobs for family and friends to get us by week to week, but its been an upiill battle. Its been so overwhelming to say the least. I hate the fact that my ill son worries if we will have the gas money to get to his dialysis. That should be the last thing on his mind. I pray I will find someone who could help us. I truely appreciate it

My work has slowed way down, and the bills seem to keep going up.I have
been robbing Peter to pay Paul for that past 2 months.
I had planned to buy groceries last week but my electric bill was so high i had to take the money from the groceries to pay it  ...so back I'm to nothing.
my pipes are frozen and i am heating my trailer with one heater i dont now where to turn or what to do i work 20-30 hours a week as we was but back on hours and my check will not pay for everything. if anyone can help with a electric heater or blanket and some food it would be a blessing and very greatful Thank you for looking and for any assistance you can give during this time of unforeseen hardship.

I am a single mother of two beautiful daughters, 15 years old and 11 years old.  Christmas is a very exciting part of the year because we love celebrating the birth of Christ, giving, and of course receiving gifts.  The past few months have been really hard for use.  The landlord of the home that we used to live in allowed the house to go into foreclosure. We were forced to move.  We moved in with another family.  The very next month I lost my job.  I have since been diligently searching for work so that I can provide a stable home for my children.  Shortly after, my oldest daughter became sick and was in the hospital.  With all of the issues in our lives we still find the time to love and laugh.  Now that Christmas is around the corner I know that I am not going to be able to provide gifts for my children.  This time of year is when my children get the one item that they want the most.  My 15 year old wants an ipod touch and my 11 year old wants a psp.  Both items are expensive and I know that I can't get those things for them.  Since I can't get them what they wanted I hoped that I could get help with at least providing small gifts for my children.  They love gift cards, clothes, and music.  Since I am unable to provide for my children this Christmas, will you please help me?  Any gift or gift cards are appreciated.  My daughters are well behaved and both have good grades. Thank you in advance for your kindness, compassion, and consideration.

I am also in need of prayer regarding job placement and a place to stay.

Thank you!

I am looking for help for christmas for my 4 grandaughters,ages 8 in jan, 3, 3 in jan and 2. I am currently recieving unemployment but that barely pays bills.I know there will b nothing this yr for christmas.I only care about the true meaning of christmas but these little ones talk about presents everyday and I hate to see them sad.I know I should be looking more for help with my bills but I love these babies so much thats all I think about.My 3 yr old grandaughter has been through so much this year because of seizures and asthma that I want her to smile at least for 1 day.If i could just find someone to help us out a little I would be so grateful.

I completely agree with you! Gift Cards are a great way to help people, and you can be sure that they're only going to be used on food items if they're from a grocery store that is...

Hi ,Im a mother of 2 beautiful girls and a wife to a hardworking man. My daughters are 18 months and 4 years old. My 4 year old is very hyper due to having ADHD and my 18 month old is very calm and reserve,their like night and day. This year has been a tough year,we moved back to Florida in Oct. 08  because my husbands job working the roadcrew kept cutting his hours back. The last 2 months he was there he worked a combined total of 54 hours, thats what he normally worked in just one week. We came back here and took another 2 months for him to find a job and now hes working in a grocery store making 8.75 and hour and working about 24 hours a week. Ive tried to make all of our dollars stretch, we live in low income housing,we have wic and 279. for foodstamps which doesnt make it the whole month, we are trying to get on the electric co budget plan and we dont spend any money on anything besides the bare necessities. Im ashamed to say this but I actually have had to take the toilet paper roll out of the dollar stores restroom because we couldnt afford any this week. I cant make the money that my husband makes stretch any farther, we are behind on the rent now and the electric was due last week. I tried all the different programs to get assistance for this but theres no moneys left or they have a waiting list and wont bother putting us on it because there wont be any money to help me when they get to me. I dont have alot of anything rite now, I have no bank or pay pal but if there is anyone out there who might possibly want to help me. I dont expect anyone to pay my bills in there entirety I just need some help. Thank you for reading this and bless you all.

offering gift cards to help people in need would be great even if its only five dollar gift cards from different places that would be a help to anyone and everyone.

hello!im a mother of a 9 yr old girl and a 12 yr old boy and their names are felicia and mikey.mikey is a special needs child.i have been married to the same man for 13yrs now and his name is mike.me,son and mike are on ssi disabiliy and mike is also on ssdi.thats all the income that is coming in,so we live from month to month and its very hard at times,very hard.we even have to dig up money for gas for the vechile at times to go back and forth to the drs and the store.god bless everyone

needs:clothing for the kids,tolilet paper,kleneex,dish soap,unscented baby wipes,xtra laundary soap in purple bottle,spray and wash stain spray in green bottle,paper towels,dryer sheets,gift cards from places like walmart,dollar general,family dollar,dollar tree,big lots,kmart,so we are able to purchase things we need. kids do need clothing and used clothing is great,just as long as they are in good shape,there is other needs we need but the main need is clothes for the kids and mike and me but we dont need clothes as bad as the kids do.

Our home burned up two weeks ago and we are having to start over. We left with only the clothes on our backs. We had no renters insurance. Since the fire, we have rented another house. We have received clothes donations for most of our children, a few monetary donations, and a couple of beds. We still need so many things. There are  7 of us in my family; myself, my husband, 4 sons ages 1.5, 4, 9, and 12, and a daughter age 6. Our immediate needs would be for kitchen items, towels, dressers, furniture and if possible a television or some toys for the kids. They don't have anything left. We could greatly benefit from paypal donations, walmart, payless,  or target gift cards, or HEB grocery gift cards. I do not have a bank account to accept checks, but my mother in law can cash any donations for us if they are made out to her. It is hard to give a thorough list when we need so much.On top of our losing everything , we have two of our sons having birthdays within the next few weeks. My husband'sjob gave notice he would have to take a $3.00 an hour paycut or be layed off; just 4 days after the fire. Then they decided to let him go after missing 6 days because of being homeless. It has been a rough two weeks. We really could use all the help we can get right now. There are several stores here in Waco Texas where we could use gift cards at. If anyone can help in any way please email me at great_abyss@att.net. Material items do not need to be new, used works just as well. Thank-you for reading and for any help you may be able to give in our time of need.
