REQUEST Help needed for vet care

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I’ve never done this before but I’m desperate at this point. I’ve been out of work since August on short term disability and I’m supposed to get 70% pay on it. But there’s been delays in paperwork and filing so I’ve only gotten one paycheck since I went on disability and it doesn’t look like I’m getting paid again till the end of the month.

My kitten just broke out in some type of reaction all over his head and ears and mouth and I’ve maxed out my savings trying to cover everything since I went out. I thought I’d be paid today but I didn’t receive anything. I’m scared he’s allergic to something but I don’t have any money to pay for the vet. I tried looking into cash advances or temporary lines of credit but because of the gaps in my paychecks I can’t get approved for anything. This is my last resort. It shouldn’t be more than 200 max for his vet visit, he just got his one year shots a few weeks ago but he hasn’t had the booster yet.

REQUEST Help Me Move Out of An Abusive Household

3 Upvotes

Hello, I'm a university student in the Philippines who's finally planning to move out of my parents' house after years of abuse so that I can be safe before planning any action against them. I'm in the process of finding myself a better job there (likely as a barista) as well as planning out all the necessary things to get out safely by December. For this, my friend in America has set up a Gofundme for the funds needed for the trip. If you can't donate, simply sharing this will help out a lot.

The funds will go mainly into funding the trip, settling into whatever room I can find there as well as any other expenses while I get used to the new life by myself in the city. Thank you for your time.

REQUEST Stuck with a flat

1 Upvotes

Went to take son to school this morning to find out my back driver side tire was totally flat.. I have an air pump in my trunk.so went to air it back up but nothing was happening and heard air escaping. So guess tire is just done but don't have a spare and so just stuck here. I am a single dad on SSDI and try to Doordash or Spark for extra income but obviously can't do that in this situation.

Have been calling around and can't find any used tire places with my tire size but Walmart has one in stock near me for $52. If anyone could help out I would be greatly appreciative. Just feeling trapped and desperate not knowing what to do.....

REQUEST Struggling with no end in site

0 Upvotes

Hi,

I’ve been unfortunately made unemployed with fixed term contract ending in July. I’m on JSA and have had interview after interview. I keep being told I was second best and have 2 more lined up next week. Even trying to get casual or retail work has proven hard and I’m getting daily rejections.

I’m managing to survive using food banks with many mouths to feed, though I have nothing and no idea how I’ll manage Novembers bills without something soon.

The higher cost items, toiletries and pet care, is really making life a struggling.

If anyone could assist with personal care items or cat supplies, I’d be forever grateful and keen to repay the favour when employed.

Thank you in advance.

REQUEST Need help paying for storage unit.

0 Upvotes

I need help paying for my storage unit. I had two surgeries in August, a tooth extraction and a strangulated hernia fix that put me out of commission and unable to work (I do mostly freelance work, but also supplement my income by helping with odd jobs, mostly handyman type stuff and helping people move) for close to 7 weeks. With especially the the hernia surgery, I was unable to do any of that until basically right now. I had a phone call with a caseworker that I connected with through the hospital that might be able to help me with my phone bill/food/hospital bill, but she is not sure if it can cover storage units. I have a follow up call on Monday

I have a storage unit because I am essentially homeless. My mother is in HUD housing and I moved back up to be her caregiver, but the building will not allow me to live there until I am officially her caregiver, which is a process that we started in May and are still waiting for me to be certified (I've completed all the tasks, the company just has not responded to our calls or emails). So I have all my stuff still in storage until I officially can move it in, and have been sleeping in various places until it gets sorted out.

The total amount after convenience fees is about $484 for September and October, but I have $260 after fees that needs to be paid before the 18th I believe before they add on a lien fee of $110 to my account. They do not accept partial payments or payment plans, even with documentation from the hospital that I did have the surgery.

So either $260 or $484 would be a massive help.

I have paypal, venmo, and cashapp.

Please help if you can.

REQUEST Urgent help needed to rebuild our home

1 Upvotes

We recently found a serious mold issue in our home and had to demolish half of it. The kitchen and the entire basement, which was fully finished before, needed to be gutted and torn apart to address the mold. We put all of our life savings into it but cannot continue anymore. Our basement once had the playroom, the second bathroom, our bedroom, my husband’s game room and the laundry room and now only the game room and the bathroom and part of our bedroom has been rebuilt. We need flooring for the entire basement, more insulation and drywall. We need kitchen cabinets and countertops. I figured I would share our gofundme here. We have 3 kiddos and desperately just want to be able to make our house a home again.

I appreciate everyone for taking a look and helping if you can.

REQUEST Rental assistance

0 Upvotes

My hours at my job were recently cut due to labor hours (love working fast food), and my check this week was a lot less than I was expecting. I'm $80 short on a payment arrangement I have with my landlords to pay rent today. I know, I'm sorry this is super late. I don't see my paystub until after my check deposits, or I could've better prepared for this.
