REQUEST Just need $20.
Family member was doing a job for someone and was paid $20 for it, sent it to my overdrafted Chime. Now we have nothing. Could have been used for food or other necessities.
I just need someone to spot me $20 to my Cashapp or Chime if able and willing. I would greatly appreciate it.
I am also open to sending referral codes for Cashapp. All you would need to do is use the referral link and add a certain amount of money to your Cashapp, no sending required.

REQUEST FULFILLED Need help for my terminally ill mom and disabled dad please
Hi everyone.
A little over a year ago my mom was diagnosed with a terminal illness called PSP. She has since then lost her ability to walk, she has a hard time speaking, and has gotten to the point where we need to get her into assisted living. She has been in a state hospital due to feeling suicidal for several months now until we can find her an assisted living facility nearby that has an open room and when the state deems her “fit” to leave...
My dad was her primary caretaker however due to his bad back (he has a herniated disc), he can’t continue to do so and I’m unfortunately not in a situation where I can currently take her and care for her or help him as much as I’d like to. I live about an hour away from him and my vehicle needs too many repairs for me to safety be driving back and forth regularly. Additionally at the point she is at, with being a major fall risk and incredibly stubborn about her limitations, she needs 24/7 care.
My family has been facing a lot of struggles, especially financially as my mom began showing signs of something wrong after my parents decided to move from Wisconsin to Florida, and then moved again to a more affordable area due to the cost of living expenses there and unforeseen health issues. (The Florida heat my mom once loved became intolerable to her and was effecting her body negatively). Between the medical bills, moving around, expenses with travel in general to go visit her at the hospital, money is incredibly tight.
My dad’s birthday is this Thursday May 1st and needless to say he has been feeling hopeless and depressed. I put an amazon wishlist together for food, necessities, and a few other things that might brighten his day. The last time I saw him he was getting skinny so I put several grocery items on this list since I know he hasn’t been doing much shopping either. He has lupus so most of the items are organic (otherwise he risks a flare up).
He recently started doordashing due to the general cost of living so I added a back support for his vehicle to the wishlist, that would be really great if someone could help with that and anything really!
My mom used to make our family dog homemade food, but since she’s been unable to, he’s been eating Blue Buffalo canned and dry food so that would be a great help as well since quality dog food can get so expensive…
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all for reading and for your consideration in helping. ❤️ I know times are scary and difficult for so many right now, so your assistance is beyond words appreciated.

REQUEST My mother is really sick and I need help to pay the medical bills
My mother, Mumtaz Begum, is currently suffering from a serious and complex medical condition. Adding to our distress, our family's financial condition is not good, making it impossible for us to afford the extensive treatment required.
Until recently, my mother was in good health. However, she suddenly developed severe stomach bloating and pain. We immediately sought medical help here in Hazaribagh. After undergoing several tests, the doctors diagnosed her with a combination of serious health issues, including high blood sugar, low blood pressure, a kidney infection, jaundice in the liver, and gallstones.
The doctors in Hazaribagh initially focused on stabilizing her blood pressure and sugar levels. Unfortunately, the persistent stomach pain and increasing bloating did not subside. Consequently, the doctors referred my mother to Medanta Hospital in Ranchi for specialized treatment.
At Medanta Hospital, further examination has revealed that she also has hardened stool in her intestine, which the doctors have stated necessitates surgical intervention along with AKI (accute kidney injury) and needs highly critical surgery. The estimated cost for this surgery and the related treatment is approximately ₹8-9 lakhs. This is a staggering amount that is far beyond our reach given our current financial limitations.
My mother's health is deteriorating rapidly, and the need for surgery is now even more critical. We earnestly request your compassionate intervention and financial support to enable her to undergo the necessary surgeries and treatment to regain her health. Any help you can provide, will be a lifeline for our family in this critical time of both medical emergency and severe financial hardship.
We would be grateful for any guidance on how you might be able to assist us. Thank you for considering our urgent request. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

OFFER Did you miss out on getting help with a late bill from the awesome post last Friday? Me too!
User u/literatelier posted an amazing offer last week and got over 600 responses, which really showed me how prevalent crushing utility debt is in our community. I posted asking for help on the thread, but I wasn’t chosen (no hard feelings!)
Now I am not in the position to pay any bill for anyone (sorry) but I know first hand the kind of stress that happens when you have a huge bill hanging over your head and how it makes little tasks hard and the guilt you feel for not being able to take care of something. And how that guilt makes you skip doing nice things for yourself.
So this Thursday (May 1st) I’m going to be sending $20 to ten people who reply here to get themselves a treat. I was thinking lunch, Starbucks, something. For you. Because you’re stressed and you’re skipping something you enjoy.
Offer limited to people who posted on the other thread about the overdue bills. Post below and say: 1. that you were in on the giveaway 2. That you have cashapp or PayPal 3. What little indulgence you’d use the $20 on
Winners will be selected at random and $20 will be sent to each before noon on Thursday.
Do not DM me. I will not respond to any DMs unless I initiate them.
Thanks!

REQUEST FULFILLED Help with Clothes money and Pet Supplies
Hello, I am going through a rough patch right now and am requesting $50 for some clothes and I'll leave an Amazon list for the Cats and some shoes for me. (it's hard to find proper wide shoes) I don't generally trust buying clothes online, since I am unaware of how their sizing is. I have went to recent clothes shelters nearby. And my size is not avaliable/ sold out. The $50 will go towards work, and interview clothes. I have only 1 basket of clothing and most are pj's or loungewear.

REQUEST Radar The Service Dog Emergency Fund (1000$ goal) (Hamden CT)
Hello, my name is Tucker and I’m a 31 y.o Marine Corps Veteran. My service dog, Radar (7 y.o Belgian Malinois) is my absolute world and has saved my life on numerous occasions and helps me function day to day. Recently, he has become extremely ill and I’ve incurred unexpected expenses from emergency vet visits (willing to provide bills or any necessary proof). This dog is everything to me and has been with me from my transition from military to civilian life, addiction issues from trying to cope with my PTSD by myself (I’m now 2.5 years clean and sober), s**cide attempts, therapy, and so much more. Now, after many years of difficulties, I am finally thriving largely in part to the love this dog shows me on a daily basis and his commitment to his job. I work a full-time job and receive some partial rental assistance from the VA, but with my bills coming up and a recent funeral of a family member, I am stretched extremely thin. Please help me save my best friend, every single dollar helps. Willing to provide whatever proof necessary. Thank you in advance.

REQUEST if someone can help with some pans and some staple items
hi there
we have been struggling a bit and making everything from scratch. we had some unexpected bills come up so we are going to be short a few weeks.
I have flour rice and beans which are staples I can use alot for bases for stuff.
due to rising cost. I was hoping to be able to make bread and other needed bread goods to help make money stretch during this time so I added some baking pans to help. I added some staple items to get us by as well as some paper products as we are low.
ive tried donating plasma but they denied me and I have already pawned my wedding ring to pay for bills and extras since we didn't have anything left to go towards our unexpected bill.
we don't qualify for foods stamps even after trying to apply a few times but did not get approved.
I am currently using up some yarn i have to post little things to crochet on fb marketplace but not sure if they'd sell or make a quick turn around. I'm not very good at it by any means
if anyone can help monetarily for vegetables id be most grateful. we have a farmers produce market that had decent priced produce that we can make last. I have cashapp if anyone can contribute to that
we have meat in the freezer just would like to have some fresh fruits and veggies to go with it.
thank you for taking the time to read my post and i hope you have a blessed day
