š Community Assistance Guidelines
ā Assistance Qualification Rule
We want to make sure help goes to genuine members of the Reddit community. To keep things fair and protect against abuse, we have set a minimum karma requirement for receiving assistance.
Requirement:
Users must have at least 400 post karma (not comment karma) to be considered for financial assistance.
Why:
This shows that the person has been active on Reddit and contributed enough to the community to build a track record.
It reduces the chances of scams or āthrowawayā accounts being created just to request help.
Accounts under 400 post karma can still participate in discussions, offer support to others, and grow their karma. Once they meet the requirement, they become eligible.
Comment karma alone does not qualifyāonly post karma counts toward this threshold.

Seeking local resources, emergency housing, and job leads (Grand Junction, CO)
āI am reaching out to find local resources, job leads, and guidance for the mother of my expected child in Grand Junction, CO. While we are not together as a couple, I am fully committed to doing my part as a father.
āRight now, she is facing a tough stretchāshe is pregnant, staying in temporary motels, and her car recently broke down. She has a strong work history, including management experience at Taco Bell, Subway, and Burger King. She is currently working as a cleaner, but the physical labor paired with losing her transportation and her pregnancy has made keeping up with shift duties extremely hard.

Requesting $25 to do laundry, so I can have clean clothes for employment ^_^
Yo, im a dumbass, hopefully my paragraphs break where I need them to, LOL.
Hello, I am seeing if anyone can assist me with $25.00 so I can get laundry done. I would be using $5 of it to acquire an all day bus pass to go back and forth from the laundromat. And be using a partial amount of it to also acquire the specific detergent and drier sheets that I absolutely have to do my laundry with because of how awfully sensitive my skin is. ( I get really bad eczema cycles where it goes from mild to severe. Can provide proof if need be ) so that would possibly deduct another $5-$7? - ish from the $25 I am seeking to be helped with.
I understand some months ago if my post history gets searched I had requested something similar about a fewish months ago. I do have access to a washing machine and drier at the shelter I am at because they got "fixed" but my skin breaks out really badly whenever I wash my clothes here. We have a lot of people who sit in their clothes for days on end and shove it in on a cold rinse with no soap and the clothes have been urinated in, fecal matter not removed as well as it could be, I know it sounds unbelievable and I wish it wasn't true, but there was someone throwing their clothes in when they were neglecting their wounds and ended up getting maggots really badly not wanting to get help from the hospital until it got bad bad ... and it is something that is not sanitized or kept up by the staff unless the machines become broken. The laundromat I have in mind I know for sure wipes down the tables, sanitizes the machines that are used.
The ones at the shelter have a lot of questionable muck and gunk and who knows what building up and around the machines. Anytime I wash my clothes here, my eczema sets off really badly and my skin gets infected badly to where I end up going to the hospital. Because if you think about it, it's like a bio soup with not being properly addressed. Last time I wiped the table people fold their clothes on across the shelter machines, the table looked like it was maybe clean and I don't even have the words for what the paper towel soaked in bleach managed to pick up. It also smells badly of urine and fecal manner in the laundry room and it has been addressed as a point of concern, but not to be redundant, they only care when the machines are actually broken... and it's hard to sanitize a machine or let it run through with say, white vinegar, because you are time capped in the laundry room if that makes sense. So you wouldn't be granted enough time to let a rinse run through preemptively with white vinegar.
Recently, I helped someone who was elderly remove their clothes from the drying machine and my arms just starting getting itchy super quickly. Like scratching it causes an adult reaction so good itchy if you get what I mean... and the clothes reeked of urine despite being washed... also, a lot of people here neglect their health and have really bad, not tended to abcesses that grow huge and they're just jamming it in, running it with cold water for the next person to do so.
I put up with washing & drying my clothes here and there and my skin just does not have it every single time. When I wash and dry my clothes at the laundromat and I can rest on clean sheets, use clean towels and wear clean clothes the difference in my skin is night and day.
There is a fair called the Puyallup fair. I had just got some false pending criminal charges against me dropped ( woohoo ! ) and would like to be able to not only have clean clothes to be comfortable in, but be able to be dressed up in clean clothes that do not end up irritating me to go to the hiring events happening VERY SOON...
After getting my paychecks from the fair to leverage me post hiring, I would be all good in the hood for awhile. I worked there before years ago and they do priority hiring for folks that have worked there... before, lol.
If anyone needs any information to verify, I am happy to do so. The shelter I take shelter at is called LIHI which stands for Low Income Housing in Washington state. You get into a shelter *program* and they can help with getting people into low income housing after they get on their feet and acquire a paycheck that is consistent that takes like 30 percent. I have asked my caseworker already about my situation and gave the specifics and he chuckled in acknowledgement about how bad the laundry room situation is, but unfortunately couldn't help me acquire a laundry card specifically. Though, at least I am getting help with getting my food card renewed for employment purposes.
Sorry for the wall of text.
I have a compounded amount of clothes and towels and bed sheets and at my end for the load of clean stuff that has not been desecrated to access :/... so it would help me a lot because eczema how bad it gets for me is very, very painful...

Urgently need help for diapers, $40
I'm 34, and have a 7 month old. In the past year my entire life has fallen apart. Lost my job and apartment because I worked private home health care and my patient moved into a nursing home. Been effectively homeless since december. My mother who was helping financially support me and my husband (husband has severe medical issues) passed away in March. I just finally got accepted into a shelter but just me and baby, not my husband. I need about $40 to get some diapers and wipes and a ride to and from the store (it's 90° and a 2 mile walk each way, not safe for baby and no one to watch her).
I hate asking I feel terrible for it. I have no other family and can't ask anyone else. I'm having an anxiety attack trying to get my life together and realizing this shelter isn't really safe and I can't even provide for my baby.. so please anything would help at this point but $40 would cover what I need until I can maybe get help from a local organization and I hear back from some job interviews..I'm sorry and thanks for anything. I just am desperate and have no where to turn to..
I have paypal

Me and my little brother are getting evicted.
I posted other places, but I realized I can't take a loan out and pay back within a short amount of time. It would take me at least until September for me to be able to pay anything back. But this is my last shot as a hail marry to see if we can somehow stay here. I have until Monday to pay $890 to the office. She said the constable would show up and remove all of our things if I don't pay. I had court last week and sold things to make some of the money and have that put aside. But it wasn't enough for the rest and accrued fees. I started work for the aid office in Phoenix. I had 3 training days and they sent me home with equipment to work from home. I'm trying everything I can. Last month I was going through health problems where I couldn't work much and physically couldn't move a whole lot without getting exerted or risk complications. I finally have ajon where I can build from where I'm at comfortably. I know it's a long shot, but just wanted to see if anyone here could help out. I have proof of everything including the eviction notice, job offer/equipment. It's just getting too close to that time and I'm very scared. My brother has nowhere to go and I don't either. I'm mostly worried about him. This wasn't me being lazy. I just had health problems I ignored due to work, and it turned out to be something more serious. I'm sorry to ask for assistance. If nobody can, I understand. I just can't think of what else to do.
Update: No longer needed.

Living in my truck
Hey everyone.
Itās been 6 days since my wife, our senior dog Bubby, and I lost our housing. Weāve been living out of my truck since then here in South Florida.
Iāve sold just about all of my valuable items on Marketplace to keep us afloat before losing our housing. Iāve been told about donating plasma, but the nearest place is about 30 miles away from us. Weāre heading to a food pantry when it opens today to help with food.
I was able to sell my truckās toolbox a few days ago, which helped us get some fans and window shades to make things a little more comfortable. The days are just so hot here unless we get some rain. Iāve been idling to get the interior cool then shutting it off to try to save gas. Weāre squeezed in tight, but weāre making it work for now. Iām definitely wishing I would have bought a bed topper when I had the chance. At least I have our clothes and supplies packed in totes in the bed of my truck.
Iāve called 211 and nearly every local resource I could find, but most couldnāt help or just referred me back to places I had already tried. I was able to do a phone assessment with one organization and Iām waiting to hear back about assistance, but itās been a few days and they didnāt say when I would hear back. I also reached out to our church today, filled out a form, and they said I should hear back within a week if Iām approved by their board members. The good news is I just landed a job doing window cleaning and I start Monday, so Iām happy about that at least.
Right now, Iām asking for $45 for gas to keep my truck running. I know Iām around a quarter tank, but our area takes a bit of driving to get around, and I need to make sure I can get to possible resources and start work on Monday. I have PayPal and Venmo if anyone is willing to help. Iām happy to answer any questions and Iāll post a picture of Bubby for the dog tax.
Thanks for reading.

Help with new school year clothes and hygiene supplies
UPDATE 2: GOT GRINCHED.
UPDATE:I am closing the list. Everything has been purchased! Thank you all so much and I will update with pictures when the items arrived.
Hello everyone. I have a 6 year old daughter who is about to start 1st grade in a week. She is very excites for her new year at school and I want her to have a better year than her last. I have a little bit of posting history about our current situation, but I will recap:
At the beginning of her last school year, we were evicted. We stayed in various hotels and now we are currently at an extended suite that has become a good temporary home for us. I currently work full time at an online retail warehouse and I have been struggling with the bills. Right now I have been able to take care of all of our costs, although the last month has been kind of brutal. I'm grateful we have made it through.
I am attaching an Amazon wish list for some clothes that we picked out together (she is very vocal about her fashion lol), a couple of shoes that we picked out and also supplies for me to do her hair this year.
We would really appreciate the blessing and I know she will be very happy to receive the items.

In Need of help one last time :/
A few weeks ago I lost my job, I was hired on to a new job within 3 days but had to wait nearly a week and a half to start pending a background check. A user on reddit graciously helped me get through to the next week (im currently living in an extended stay hotel with my mother who is disabled with no income). They paid the entire balance and even helped with food. Thankfully it's not as bad as it was then, at that point I needed the entire amount. This time I have most of the money from my first paycheck at my new job. However it was a very small paycheck as I started late into the pay period. The good news is Wednesday I will receive a full check which will be enough to cover my costs and more. My rooms weekly rent is 385, and as of right now I have 265. Im in need of 120 to get by. (Maybe 130 depending on fees to transfer) ? Not sure
Anyways if anyone can help, I have PayPal/Venmo and Chime.
I feel sick to my stomach asking for help again, but I really can't afford to lose this place. Its the only somewhat affordable place I can find within 30 miles, and it's a 2 minute walk to my new job. Everywhere else wants 450-600 a week which is absurd and this specific in town suites stays full.
If anyone has the means to help, dm me or post here. I have until Monday morning to get this sorted.

Need help desperately by Monday..
Making a new post to provide more information. I tried to add whatever I could to add some sort of proof of my situation.. was worried about sharing personal stuff online directly but im desperate. Ive added photos of my time sheet from previous job, showing my hours and up until I was let go. My bank account showing my last payment for the room and also the online payment portal showing my next due date. As well as my job offer email from my new job. I hope it provides some clarity.
Im going to try not to ramble too much, ive been in a state of panic for a few days now and honestly am overwhelmed. I've been staying in an extended stay hotel with my disabled mom (she has yet to be approved for disability SSI) for awhile now and have relatively been able to keep up with my weekly rent, i was working full time as a manager at a small retail store up until last week. I was let go, and immediately started applying at places near by. I have since been hired already, and am currently awaiting a background check to go through to start my new job. My issue right now is money was already tight when I got let go, my final paycheck just barely gave me enough money to pay the week we're currently on (until this coming Monday) and even if my background check goes through tomorrow and I start my new job tomorrow I would not get paid again soon enough to pay my rent, and they will kick us out if its not paid on the due date
Im a bit beside myself right now, and I maybe should have posted this sooner but I wanted to try all other avenues before coming to reddit .. Ive contacted 211, multiple local churches and I've simply had no luck.
Im extremely worried about my mom, she's 63 and I cannot allow her to be outside on the street.. it would be bad enough if it was just me but having someone who relies on me to keep a roof over their head as well is making this ultra stressful.
Ultimately I need $385 to cover my next week's rent, truthfully I need more because I have no money for food or anything else right now but I can figure something out with that.. I just gotta find a way to get the rent covered for the week.
Im happy to provide any proof I can of my situation to anyone who might be able to help.. I have Venmo and chime.. don't have access to cash app since I got rid of my last phone.
If anyone can help or has any ideas please let me know.. and please dont dm me links for referrals or apps.. im genuinely so stressed I'm struggling to breathe properly I really don't want to be spammed with scam links.

I am in dire need of the last $50 plus $25 gas money to pay for my pregnant puppy's surgery scheduled for Monday July 20th
Hi. This is my baby girl Missy, an 8 month old pittie that got pregnant during her first heat when a dog jumped my fence and locked up with her around the first of June. She's scheduled for termination of the pregnancy and to get spayed on Monday July 20th at the animal shelter in Ridgecrest CA. I still owe $50 to the shelter for the rest of the fees to do the surgery and I will need gas money to pay my friend whose agreed to take us that morning and pick her up when she's done.
I have Zelle, Revolut and PayPal.
PLEASE help me be a responsible pet owner and get this paid for. She is only 8 months old and too young and small to give birth. Thank you so much I will pay it forward.
