I had an unfortunate series of events and no longer have a running vehicle. I am relying on my parents for rides and no longer wish to burden them with that. Anything helps :) not trying to get a brand new car. Just something reliable.

https://gofund.me/ec571d7c5, I was laid off recently and I have another job set to start on October 26th. I received my eviction notice since i am behind from oct 1st rent. I don’t currently have any form of reliable transportation to use for odd jobs, gig work, or doordashing and havent found anything in my area. Since I don’t currently have children I don’t qualify for the rental assistance programs in my area.

This is my cat Kaia, who is 5 years of age, she has suffered for 13months with something the vets ”think” is a nasal polyp. We have visited the vets on numerous occasions and all that has been taken away from these vet visits are bills higher than we can afford. We love our kaia and just want to see her happy and able to breathe again. Any donations would be appricated https://gofund.me/10a6196d9

I’m sorry. I know this might be the wrong place to ask for help, but I have no other options left. I’m on the edge, I really can’t find any reason to keep going. It’s not anyones problem but my own.. But I need $50, to make it through the week. I have nothing left. I live in Norway, but if there is anything I can do in return - I’d gladly do it. And if anyone has any good advise for me on how to survive the thoughts of ending it all - please give it to me.
I’m starting to question if this life was ever ment for me. Sorry to be so depressive.
I hope you’re all having a better day than me.

Hi everyone! To explain everything so no one think im a scammer or anything, I mainly post artwork I have commissioned artist to draw. Such as superhero, monster or just my original characters I have created. I also forgot to mention that I have a deadline before my subscription ends which is the seventh of October and once that expires they will forcefully close the donations I set up

Sadly since the last three years I have been struggling with find work to earn money to not only pay for these artist but other thing as well.

I'm here to seek help in earn the found that im trying to earn to commission certain artist. My goal is about 980 dollars which is enough to cover everything I need and want to do.

And before anyone ask, I have tried multiple ways to earn money and all ended in failures, I have set up multiple donations on the deviantart website and stuff like. I have tried to sell some concept art I have made and this includes one I draw myself which are terrible and ones I had to use ai to make as reference material for artist I have commission

If anyone is interested in helping out. I will leave a link to the four donations jars I made that range from 5 to 20 dollars. But if anyone is interested in donating the full goal please let me know and I will create a special jar.

I’m a person who commissioned artists to draw my characters and I’m currently going through some financial issues and I’m not able to pay artists or pay for my monthly subscription on the website I post my art on. I’m here to seek some help to gather donations to help pay for my monthly subscriptions and to help pay for some artist to be honest the artists our friends of mine and I’m trying to help them out by committing artwork from him. Because that how they makes a living and I’m trying to help them as well

And I’m being completely honest I will not be used this money or take this money for anything else any money I earned will go straight towards the individual I want to commission from and those I’m trying to help

And before anyone ask why I’m requesting so much is most of them charge from around 70 dollars for commission and deviantart as well to pay for the subscription service is around 200 dollars a year. So I’m being honest when I say I’m not going to keep any of this money for myself and use it to pay artists who draw art for a living

Hi all,

I would love to hear your recommendations about long term donation ideas. I mean, it needs to help people even after i'm gone.

Anything comes in your mind?

Rebuilding After Wrongful Eviction, Health Crisis, and Homelessness

We never imagined we would find ourselves in a position where we had to ask for help, but over the last few years, a sequence of overwhelming events and unfair hits wiped out everything we worked for.

It began when I was unexpectedly let go from my job after two employees made unfounded accusations against me, followed shortly by my husband losing his job. Refusing to give up, we poured everything we had into launching a small business together selling Pokémon cards. We worked around the clock to make it succeed, but compounding crises derailed our momentum.

My husband suffered a severe mental health breakdown and, after going on short-term disability, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Navigating his new diagnosis, doctors' visits, and necessary medications without stable income put an incredible strain on us, and the business was unable to survive.

Then came the turning point that tore away our stability: I was wrongfully arrested on our apartment property.

Every single charge against me was quickly dropped and I was completely cleared, but our apartment management evicted us anyway simply because the arrest occurred on the premises. We lost our home through no fault of our own, right in the middle of trying to stabilize my husband’s medical care.

Desperate for a fresh start, we packed what little we had left and moved to Dallas for prospective work. When those job opportunities fell through upon arrival, we were left stranded with zero savings. We reached out to local shelters—including Dallas Life—seeking emergency housing. Because they are a religious organization, they refused to recognize our legal marriage license, barred us from staying together in the same room, and ultimately turned us away entirely because we are a same-sex couple. Being left on the street in our most vulnerable hour simply for who we are was heartbreaking.

Left with no safety net in a city where we had no support, we are currently on our way back to the Houston area to regroup on familiar ground. However, we are returning with no savings, no permanent housing, and urgent medical needs.

Immediate Survival Budget Breakdown

To be completely transparent about our needs, here is how every dollar raised will be used to help us survive and rebuild:

| Emergency Lodging | 3 weeks at a basic motel while securing housing & work | $1,350 |

| Medical & Prescriptions | Bipolar medication refills & essential psychiatric care | $350 |

| Food & Basic Needs | Daily food, bottled water, and basic hygiene supplies | $400 |

| Transit & Communication | Fuel/transit costs & phone service for job interviews | $200 |

| Storage & Emergency Needs | Keeping our remaining belongings safe & laundry | $200 |

| Total Target Goal | Immediate Emergency Survival & Relocation Milestone | $2,500 |

How You Can Help

* Donate: Any amount—whether $5 or $50—goes directly toward keeping us off the street, keeping my husband's prescription refilled, and putting food on our table while we actively apply for work.

* Share: If you cannot donate right now, sharing this campaign link on social media, with friends, or with community mutual aid networks makes a world of difference.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read our story and for showing us kindness when we need it most.

. Hurricane lala displaced us and honestly i was not expecting this. I have lived on maui my whole life currently rent a home 4 mins from the house I grew up in. In 2018 my home was effected by hurricane lane. It was bad the road split in half the yard had massive flooding and my house flooded but not much. Most damage was outside. Fema and red cross showed up set up camp for what seemed like press and then they were gone. No help to us. I had no idea why they even came. Nothing came of that storm no repairs just basic clean up. Fast forward to last week when hurricane lane hit. My house this time flooded bad inside. We actually left the house due to the water rising and not wanting to be trapped with my child plus the rooms were flooding from the ground up. The water was coming thru the grout of the tile. I lost all my baby photos from hurricane lane, this time I lost half my house due to flooding. I knew the clean up was going to be alot plus having to replace all my items when I have no money coming in right now so I posted on social media if anyone knew of any programs or organizations that could help me. Someone tagged a woman on my post who reached out. She was heaven sent she sent me a dm with 4 links that could help me right now. One for food replacement, 1 for help replacing damaged items 1 for volunteers to come to your house and help clean up after and the 4th one was one I didn't understand but figured the other ones she sent were legit this one would be too. The next day Lahaina strong reached out saying they would send volunteeres to help me clean up the damage from flood which is exactly the help I needed. My bed and other furniture pieces got destroyed by the flood and needed to be out. Lahaina strong did an amazing job helping me clean out the 1st 2 rooms. The leader then takes out a device that ks supposed to read mold detection and how much. The leader then tells me to look at this and proceeds to show me the device is reading very high from mold exposure. Actually higher then he seen before. The house is now deemed unlivable! As hes saying this the national guard shows up and does there walk thru also deemed it unlivable. I am now in a tail spin what do you mean I have to find a place to move too? This was supposed to be just clean up and come back home as we hadn't been home since we fleed during storm. RENTALS ON THIS IS ISLAND are OVER PRICED and why most people get priced our of paradise. The woman who had sent me the links has been helping me every step of the way including trying to find a temporary housing until I A. Find a new permanent rental or B. Bide my time until I can move back in. A 3 bedroom on this island averages $3600 and up ,2 bedroom $2600 and up and 1 bedroom 2k and up not including electricity. Not to mention vac.ation rentals are double that for less time. These organizations are underfunded they were having a hard time finding a place for me because all the airbnbs were ridiculously priced and their funding could not cover it so I've been having to find a place to sleep with my child nightly. According to the National Guard and Lahaina strong I should qualify for FEMA but FEMA has not declared this a National disaster and until they do that I cannot apply I'm in this gray area now. It's one of the scariest places to be with a child. The organization asked that I make a GoFundMe even though I didn't want to according to other hurricane and fires victims they have warned me that help is few and far and I should be posting my gofund that will be my life line. I would need enough to literally rebuild my life. From getting into a permanent housing to replacing my damaged items. Oh and im a stay at home mom so this is the worst case scenario. Mom guilt is kicking in. What if I had left years ago when I 1st lost my items. We have to go back to pack up what we can and my daughter starts coughing bad. Confirming the mold has taken over the house and we can definitely no longer keep coming back. I feel stuck i have no idea what to do where to go or if I can even get real help. I dont want to be homeless with a child on and island i grew up on. I needed to vent . I wish more funding would come thru so the government could help all of us in this gray area but in the mean time if you feel inclined here is my gofund me if you can't donate please share requesting
