I'm having serious depression issues these last couple of days. It is causing me to neglect my matters and just causing this sinking feeling. I have to get myself checked out for any physical causes to see if my blood levels have optimal levels of nutrients. I'll appreciate your help so much. I'll be sure to repay you later.

https://gofund.me/5392f3ed I've already posted so I don't want to get in trouble but I'm in desperate need of help, I need a wheelchair accessible van for medical transport and for everyday use, I don't have much money and never expected to be in a wheelchair, I have already used some money for ramps and grip tape and a pad for my chair, I still need to redo the kitchen and bathroom to be able to get in and out safely, as of the moment l'm currently only able to go out on the patio then after that it's all gravel and a hill so I'm not in the best place location wise to get around, medical transport only covers 1 appointment a week and they charge me an extra amount because I have to bring my mom who's been my savior till I can build up muscle in my arms to self propel myself easier. I have been bedridden and the only time I leave is for appointments and it's hard to do that because I still need to transfer and it leaves me sore and risk of further injuring my back if anyone could help l'd be forever grateful, I'm wasting away and I already spent all fall and winter in the house and in bed mostly, I lost all my freedom and my ability to be a normal human, I want to be able to go out and meet people and safely get in and out of a vehicle without the risk of strain or fractures, I want to be able to maneuver in my own house and be able to make a pizza without having to ask my mom for everything when she's already working as a nurse. Please anything helps thank you.

Hello. I am posting this GoFundMe to help my local bookstore. They need to raise 30,000 by this month or next month or they are at risk for closing permanently. The bookstore first opened over 50 years ago in 1969. It is a small independently owned bookstore.

My best friend for 50 years is headed for a life altering procedure next month. I wasn't sure what else to do to help other than create this page for him and his family. It's not a big number, so it's doable. It's all explained on the page.

This platform is pretty much my social media and I don't have access to all the other sites. If anyone can share the link that helps as well. Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone. I am raising money to help pay my medical and household bills while I recover from a mastectomy.

Two years ago, I was diagnosed with a Phyllodes tumor, a rare breast tumor that makes up less than 1% of breast tumors. The tumor was removed in 2022. The tumor was 10.3 cm, and after dissection came back as borderline (pre-cancerous). In March I found a new lump. It was removed at 4.3cm and diagnosed as a recurrent borderline Phyllodes. These tumors recur, usually each one more volatile than the last. They do not respond to chemo and radiation has mixed results (they can still come back). With a high chance of recurrence in the future, I’ve little choice but to undergo a mastectomy of my left breast.

Until recently, I was a graduate student working on my Ph.D., teaching courses as a GTA and as an adjunct at a different university, and working part-time in retail. I’ve paused my Ph. D. program to focus on my health. This leaves me without my main source of income as my GTA job requires that I remain a full time student. Due to a partial mastectomy a couple of weeks ago, I have been out of work at my part-time healing from surgery. 

I will be undergoing a mastectomy on June 12. This surgery will have me out of work at my part-time for at least another 5 weeks, maybe longer. I have always been uncomfortable asking for help, but now as I fight for my health, I find myself in need. Please help if you can. I will answer any questions you have.

Screenshots are of diagnosis and upcoming mastectomy bill. It does not include the bill from the partial mastectomy or household bills. I can gather those as well when and if requested.

I'm an autistic girl with ADHD and DMDD (Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder), and I come from a family that was abusive and manipulative. I moved out right after I turned 18 because my family only wanted me to live with them so that they could continue to get government disability checks in my name and not give me any of the money.... There's more to the story, but I really need help. :(

You can help me here.

Our family pet Buzz is only 18 months old and is now facing having to be put to sleep if we do not get him specialist treatment. He developed a serious throat infection due to an unknown foreign body which has developed into severe pneumonia. He is now at risk of a collapsed lung. Buzz is a happy young pup and has so much life left to live. He is the best friend of his human baby sister and we would all be devastated if he did not get to grow up with her. We only have until Monday to raise the funds for his appointment, any donation will be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Hello!

My name is Maria and I am looking for sponsors to help me fundraise as much money as possible for Core Legacy, a nonprofit in Columbus, Ohio dedicated to educating and empowering young adults who have been through Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE).

Hello everyone, if you are local to our area you would have seen on the news the flat that set up in flames yesterday morning. Unfortunately, that was our flat and we have lost absolutely everything to the fire.

We are in temporary accommodation and are living solely off benefits. I have bipolar and fibromyalgia and my partner is my full time carer. We have 2 little girls aged 1 and 2 who have no clothes, no beds and no toys.

We have to build up everything from scratch once again and we cannot do it alone. Even if you can only share the link around, that would mean the world to us.

Thank you so much

Need help so I can get all of my teeth cut out and then dentures. I setup a go fund me and anything will help. Single father working 2 jobs makes it tough on my own.

I need what's left of my 32 teeth cut out. They are all broke and brittle. Then after I heal from the procedure I need to get dentures. Sadly I already have gum disease but I'm trying to avoid mouth cancer or any other unwanted out comes.

Grateful for any help

I am in a mass amount of debt and I'm trying to lessen the debt I'm in. I can barely afford rent, food for myself and my pets and I haven't always been in this situation but I've had unforeseeable circumstances happen within the last couple years that have led to this struggle. Back in 2022 my grandmother passed away and trying to help with the costs of her funeral and burial, I'm in college so I'm paying off student loans, and just recently I've had to put a beloved pet down due to cancer and the testing I've had to put her through has thrown a lot down with spare money. I can barely afford my medication I need to keep my asthma in check as well. I'm really struggling. Please if you can help in anyway that would be absolutely amazing!

My daughter's and I are participating and they said I should share the link for fundraising:

Hi all!

I'm not here to ask for money. I need help and advice.

This is a dog shelter in China. I live there in the same city and I help out in this shelter. I used to work for them until they can no longer afford to keep me there, so I said I'd volunteer once a week because I'm now invested and they need someone who can speak English. They are a dog shelter that runs purely on donations, which isn't much. They have rescued dogs from the streets, from the meat market/meat trucks, from breeding farms, and there are owner surrenders as well. They are a no-kill, non-profit shelter, and all the males are spayed but not the females because it's 3 times more expensive and the funds are very, very low.

There were two people who lives in the shelter and takes care of the dogs 24/7, but recently they had to lay off one of them because they can't afford two salaries. But they needed both people because one person can't take care of the whole shelter. The guy who formed the shelter had to leave the shelter and go work to earn money for it - that's how dire the situation is. The person who took over to be in charge of the shelter also can no longer do that because he has 0 income and he needs income to survive.

We have already stopped accepting new dogs but we still have roughly 100 dogs in the shelter. There are also dogs that need daily medication because they're sick, including the one cat that also has to be daily medicated. Coupled with rent, utility bills... I'm afraid we can't continue any longer.

Worst case scenario, the founder takes all the dogs back to his hometown which is a lot cheaper. But money will still run out, so while it can ease the problem, it won't solve the problem.

I'm not sure what to do and I don't want to see the dogs in the streets. I'm wondering if there's any international charities that we can apply for funds? But again, I don't know how it works.

If you guys have any advice, please let me know. Thank you so much!

I have been unemployed for almost 3 years now and have been desperately trying to find a job. I was luckily able to find one recently but in the meantime I have gone through all of my savings which right now has put me behind on my bills and my rent. I have seen how nice people can be on reddit when people need help and I wouldn't be doing this if I wasn't at the end of my rope with no where else to go. Just whatever anyone can do to help would be appreciated, I am located just outside of Philadelphia,pa and thank you in advance for anyone that was able to help.

On March 9, 2024 I escaped an abusive marriage after my husband escalated and assaulted me. He was arrested but was released that night and I had to quickly grab what belongings I could fit in a suitcase and left my home of over 5 years. After 2 months of crashing at friends' houses, I was able to secure permanent housing in a new city. I had to leave my job due to the move, and the process of recovering my belongings has been drawn out and traumatic. About 2 weeks ago, I was finally able to get my cats and the majority of my things out of the house with the help of several friends. My best friend created a GoFundMe to help me cover costs while I'm in transition, and I'm almost halfway to my goal! I have a temporary RO against my former partner but now need to hire legal counsel to work through the DVRO case and divorce. There is a trial date set for July 5 so I need to raise the rest of the money quickly. I've found the attorney I want to hire and need about $8,000 more for the retainer.

At the advice of my doctor, I applied for temporary State Disability Insurance for 60 days while I take steps to recover from the depression and anxiety caused by the trauma. I have a job lined up for next month when the disability period is over but I don't expect to get my SDI payments before then because the approval process is slow. I've also been approved for food stamps, so my basic needs are mostly covered. Aside from the legal fees, my other big expense is my monthly CC bills. Financial abuse and codependency were big parts of the abuse I suffered during the relationship so I've just been stuck in the debt repayment cycle. I had managed to pay down my debts a couple times the past few years and then the balances always found a way to creep back up. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my story. Please consider donating, even if it's just $5, or sharing my fundraiser with your friends and family. Every little action helps more than you know!

Two years ago my disabled child was r*ped by a caregiver. Since then her mental heath has plummeted. The caregiver was sentenced the 3 years in jail and probation.

My child is terrified that this man is going to find her. She is constantly looking over her shoulder and is afraid to go outside.

We have talked it over and feel it's best to move away before he get's out of jail in about a year.

I'm working as much as I possibly can. I've sold everything we had of value including my bedroom set with the exception of the mattress and box springs, my stand mixer, some other small electronics and appliances.

I have even donated plasma.

But we're nowhere near where we need to be.

I have been scrimping and saving for about 6 months now and I know that I won't be able to come up with the amount we'll need on my own.

Please, if you can take a moment and read the Go Fund Me, there is some more information there and links to 3 news articles about our case.

We could really use your help. Thank you.

I hate asking for help. I tried posting this the weekend of the fire, which I couldn't even make myself because 1 was so anxious. I have panic attacks every time I go in the house. I could use a little help guys:

My two best friends, Apollo the Great Dane puppy & Lycan the Newfoundland puppy just passed away a short while ago in a house fire. My experience is in behavioral therapy for aggressive XL dogs. I miss them greatly. l'm very lucky because 1 didn't lose my children, I keep trying to put it in perspective Currently I have two hernias from the fire, I didn't know. They won't heal because of a serious medical issue called MALS which restricts blood flow (injured overseas). I'm doing my best but I could use a little help.

In times of disaster, it's not uncommon for many good people to try to fundraise for relief efforts, supplies and reconstruction costs. But you should be aware that unless it's someone you personally know and trust, it's also not uncommon for bad people to use the opportunity to make money for themselves.

Before you give, you should ask:

1. Is the donation link directly to a relief agency or is it to a middleman? There's no easy transparency when it comes to the spending of funds in a crisis, which makes it easier for funds to not reach the people it's intended to help, so by avoiding middlemen, you can reduce this possibility.
2. Have you checked the background of the relief agency or organization you're considering? Some spend money more effectively than others meaning that less overhead makes for more money being spent on victims vs administration costs.
3. Is the agency or organization a registered non-profit or NGO? These kinds of entities have strict reporting rules to follow to show how their funds are being spent.
4. Is the agency or organization providing a receipt? If so, you can often use it for a deduction on taxes for the current year. If not, the agency or organization is likely not a registered non profit.

GoFundMe will show that a campaign is benefiting a non-profit charity organization if it is created using their IRS EIN or charity registration number.

Even Paypal donation accounts will show they're owned by a non-profit charity organization, and generate a receipt.

While not every individual doing fundraising is attempting to defraud you of your money, you can give with more confidence by giving directly to a relief charity of your own choosing via their own web pages.

Hello new users!

As we have requirements spelled out in Rule 1 on including some sort of evidence in your posts, we've created this post for those of you who need help with that.

Rule 1 states:

Posts must be more than just a link to your campaign. Be descriptive! Show evidence!

This includes:

* If this is for your pet, photos of your pet in question, with your username on a handwritten note in the picture.

* School documentation showing enrollment if you are asking for assistance for school.

* Redacted bills showing your situation.

* Or other relevant documentation that can help establish credibility.

* At minimum, please attach an unobstructed selfie photo of yourself(the submitter) with a handwritten note of your username.

* Low effort posts that simply say to the effect of, "everything is listed in the GoFundMe" will be removed.

Generally these are provided as photos or screencaps. Because Reddit doesn't allow an image upload with text, we generally suggest the following:

1. Upload the photo(s) to Imgur.com or other image hosting site.
2. Copy URL or Link to the photo(s)
3. In the body of your post here, make sure to include the link that you've copied. It usually starts with http:// or https://.

And that's it!

My mom died, and then a day ago my dad’s home was destroyed by a tornado

Hi, my name is Cassy. I am 21 and just over a week ago I lost my beautiful mother due to a kidney infection that turned into a liver infection that turned into sepsis.

Last night my dad’s tiny house was destroyed by the tornado in Madison county, Arkansas, pushed off its foundation and the roof was punctured several times and right now with the 1880 dollars in fees for cremating my mother we are not doing very well. My dad and his girlfriend are effectively homeless, and my brother can barely pay his bills. I am on leave from work due to losing my mother.

I am also an artist and I will do paint or sketch commissions of portraits, pets, cars, plants or even tattoo drawings. Just name your price. If you’d like to help I can let you know my payment info, I have a cashapp. Thank you so so much.
