Thank you for stopping by my site.  I am reaching out to anyone who may be able to help us.  I have twins daughters who are now 20 months old and their father attacked me (for the second time) I got a protection order on him the very next day, we had a court date scheduled and two daye prior to our court date he was found in a hotel room trying to kill himself and in possession of cocaine.  He was hospitilized, SECTION 302, in the psych ward and that was the end of it.  He prior to this happening he took all of our money and put it in an account I can't touch, he emptied the girls bank accounts and just left us with everything.  In the meantime I lost my job due to this protection order and we are currently struggling finacially.  I am unable to find a job due to the education field is cutting teachers left and right in our area.  I have lost 25lbs and continue to fight for my kids.  He has to pay child support of course and has only given us a few hundred dollars...that doesn't even help pay for the bills so I can keep our home.

I have done everything and applied everywhere for a job.  The girls will be 2 in July and I want to be able to give them the world.  We are looking for help with diapers, outdoor toys, (so I don't have to drive to the park), gas money to get to doctors apts. The girls were born at 29weeks and were in the NICU for 7weeks.  They have several therapist that they see weekly and I am all by myself so I need to be able to take them there.

If anyone can help us in any capacity it would be greatly appreciated.  We pray day in and day out for a miricale to help us in the hardest time in our lives.

We can be reached ihvtwns@gmail.com if you would like to reach out.

This started when my landlord sold our appartment and we became homeless. Moved in with mother, found out that girlfriend was pregnant. My mother assulted my girlfriend but she is fine now. After that we moved in with my girlfriends mother that did not work out either. They recorded our conversations and threatened to take our kids away. At this time we are now living with some friends and only have 3 weeks left. Every day I ride my bike ten miles to work and I am running on empty. I don't mind though because I have to be a man about this sistuation and do what ever it takes to provide for her. I started a third job and might loose it because I had training 50 miles away. I am tired and running out of ideas any help would be greatly appricated

My name is Veruca and I am a single mother of 5.  I left my abusive husband of 15 years approximately 5 years ago and I haven't looked back. It has been a constant struggle but nothing like it is currently. We are on the verge of being homeless and I have all but begged for a job. We live in Greenville, S.C. and it seems that all our resources are tapped out due to the poor economy. If anyone knows of any programs in my area that could possibly help it would be greatly appreciated. I would be willing to do a trade-off of services (babysitting,lawn care, painting) for anyone willing or able to consider lending us a hand. Thank you.

I really Need Baby Boy & Baby girl clothes 0-12 months, and any other baby items such as toys and so forth.. I just had my 2 babies a month ago.. and its my first time being a mom.. i really need help.. its hard to do with them both being on formula that is 27 bucks a can, and having twins, and not to mention my Husband is an Operation iraqi Freedom vet.. he served over there, got hurt and medically discharge, so we live on $700.00 dollars a month for us, our bills, and our two babies Dylan & Cady.. My health is deteriorating and he needs to go to the Drs too. but we found out we cant get state assisted medicaid for a family of 4 we have to make 300.00 or less a month to get it.. so he has to go to the va over 90 miles away(one way). and i have to do without health insurance, at least dylan and cady get free insurance.. but its really hard.. when i was pregnant & before i got pregnant, we were having to sleep on a futon because we dont even have a bed, and im still having to do that, it really sucks..

Anyways, if anyone has some baby boy and baby girl clothes 0-12 mos, and other items such as toys and such, please let me know.. i could really use it, if you dont need them anymore..

Btw, I Live In Missouri (ive tried freecycle and i cant get anything...)

Hi My Name is Clara, My cousin is having twins and is in need of baby clothes, carseats, blankets, strollers, just about anything you can think of that a baby will need...anything will help..thanks for reading

I have never asked for help, but now I am asking for my family, for my children.  I just had twin girls in September, they were premature and were in the hospital for 2 weeks in NICU.  During that time my husband worked his scheduled time never taking off a minute.  I slept in the hospital chairs all day and night even though I was in great pain from my emergency c-section.  Friends and family cared for my other two daughters, ages 8 and 5.  Then when my twin girls were released my husband was laid off from his job.  We have not had a job since.  He has looked everywhere in Florida and even in other states.  We are desperate and we need help.  We are in so much need that my family was given food from their elementary schools' food drive!

We are in need of everything, but most of all a job.  My husband does computer repair and IT and NOC systems administration.  We live in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida but would be willing to go anywhere to earn a living.  My kids need food and diapers, I need to be able to make my car payment to drive them to school.  We are living in a 2 bedroom rental apartment that I cant even pay rent for.  If anyone can help I would be so grateful.  Thanks!

Gosh, I don't even know where to start.  My husband and I make a seemingly moderate income.  By that I mean we make enough to get by without going into debt, but if we ever needed money for an emergency we wouldn't have it.  And right now I feel like we have come face to face with a big emergency.  God this is hard... I feel like I'm begging.  We live in a small 2-bedroom apartment, we've been trying to find a house, but I don't have the best credit and we've found it quite difficult to get a house sized loan on my husbands income alone.  After all is said and done (bills, groceries etc.) we only have about $100 dollars left at the end of the month.  We have been using that money to pay off my old debt so we can get a more sizeable loan.  Just last week I went to the doctor and found out I am pregnant, with twins.  While we do feel very blessed, we're also very overwhelmed by the current situation.  We have a son who will be 3 in August, and the babies are due in October.  We have two mid-sized cars, neither of which has enough room for three car seats, and with gas prices what they are we can't afford to drive both cars everywhere we go as a family.  But just like with the house we cannot get a vehicle loan on my husbands income alone.

I would never expect someone to buy me a house, or a new car for that matter.  But at this point I don't know where to turn or what to do. 

Wow... where to start. My husband has been in construction his entire life. He has recently (September) closed down his construction business. He is now working in a sales position and not making any money. We have recently lost our house to forclosure and our vehicles to the bank. Our rent is due in 14 days and I am not sure where that is going to come from. We have never been in a situation like this and I just spend all day crying. I cant imagine the thought of having to live on the streets with my 2 year old twins. It just kills me inside to think about the life that they are living already. I would appreciate any help or advice!!!

Hi, my name is Kerry and I have 4 daughters.  They are 4, 6, 6 and 16.  About a year and a half ago, I left an abusive marrage to try to make a better life for me and my girls.  Things have been pretty rocky since then.  My ex is refusing to let me go and refuses to sign any of the paperwork.  He is trying to get custody of the girls and calls children's services on me all the time.  (The ladies from there are WONDERFUL!  I have nothing but good things to say about them, and they have always quickly closed the cases, but it is a horrible abuse of the system on his part and keeps them overworked and is a form of harrassment). 

 Anyway... I work two jobs.  One in the morning and one in the afternoon so that I can get my twins from school and take them to the daycare.  This also allows me to take them to the councelor's apointments and lets be be availible to go to the school when one of them is throwing a temper tantrum (hey.. Daddy throws things when he's mad, why can't I?).  Anyway, this means that I currently don't have health insurance.  I take a drug called effexor for Fibomyalgia (which is a disease that causes chronic pain).  It is $140/month at half the dose I'm supposed to be taking. 

I've never been in the position of not being able to give my children something for Chirstmas.  I don't have any family (my Mom died 2 years ago) and I dont' have any credit cards.  I do make fairly good money and their Dad is currently working and paying child support, but at the moment, I have to pay my lawyer, and the court appointed Gaurdian and every time he calls Children's Services or some other authority on me, it costs over $1,000 for me to clear my name and pay everyone to investigate something that didn't need to be investigated.  (sigh)   

I'd like to give them some art supplies this year.. we color and paint and craft all the time.  If anyone has some extra art supplies, material or yarn, would you consider donating them to us for their Christmas?  

Thanks for your kind thoughts,

Blessings,

Kerry 

One short year ago I never would have imagined I would be here asking strangers for help until the day my husband, 42, suffered a brain aneurysm while riding a motorcycle which caused an accident.  He broke every bone in the right side of his body, including fracturing his skull and breaking his neck.  His aneurysm was on the left side of his brain and he was not expected to live.  At the time I was two months pregnant (with twins!) and we were set to open a restaurant in two days, my husband's lifelong dream.

Since that day, my husband spent 7 months in the hospital, 4 in ICU.  I was told he would never live, never come out of his coma, never talk again, never walk... etc.  He is home with us now but has very little memory of his life before the accident and no short term memory.  He can only remember the last 15 minutes or so.  When he first came home from the hospital he was unable to get out of bed by himself, speak full sentences, do any personal grooming on his own, nothing.  Now he is walking (with a cane), feeds himself, talks regularly, etc.

We have two girls, 11 and 10 and through months of sleeping on waiting room couches and living in the hospital with my husband I was blessed enough to have a full term pregnancy and deliver two healthy babies, a boy and a girl.  I was lucky that my 80 year old mother was able to come for a few months and stay with our older children so I could concentrate on my husband's recovery.  I've tried to display strength so my children would be able to feel secure and hopefull during such a truly scary time.  I also have two step sons, one of whom just returned from being deployed in Iraq.

While my husband was in the hospital, we lost the restaurant and our home was forclosed on.  I was forced to move the week prior to delivering the twins.  I have since had to move again to better afford rent.  All of our savings were being used to open the restaurant, we have been left with nothing. 

Medical bills, doctor bills, babies, no savings.  It's all completely overwhelming.  My husband can not be left alone for 5 minutes, he has broken his hip once since being home, and that resulted in 3 months in a wheel chair.  Physically it is draining taking care of him and two newborns.  I haven't had more than 3 hours sleep a night in the past year. 

This past year has been a huge strain on our family but we have pulled together and have made it this far by the grace of God.  I now ask for grace from complete strangers to help my family out financially in any way possible.  I do not have enough money to pay rent, utilities, buy clothes, buy diapers for the babies or my husband (who is incontinent) and essentially take care of my family.  Any help at all would be most appreciated. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.  I hope and pray you might be able to help me.  My husband and I are a young couple raising a set of fraternal twin girls.  They will turn 2 in September.  Back in March I got a job and my husband and I were finally able to build a home.  Unfortunately, I lost my job earlier this month (August) and two days later found out I am pregnant with our 3rd child.  If anyone can help with baby expenses, clothes, or even just with prayers, please do so.  We are living off of my husband's income only, which isn't much, and by the time we pay our bills we have $41 left over at the end of the month to buy food, gas, clothes, and other daily expenses.  We want to be able to provide a good home and provide for our children.  We believe that God doesn't give you anything you can't handle, but we also know He sometimes sends help in everyday people.
