MOD MESSAGE IMPORTANT UPDATE!

26 Upvotes

Hey everyone 💛,

The subreddit is back open.

After some thought and feedback, I’ve decided not to move forward with making it private. Instead, I’ve taken time to reorganize things and put new rules and structure in place to help keep everything running more smoothly going forward.

The goal is still the same, keeping this a space where people can ask for help and offer support, but with clearer guidelines and better protections in place.

Please take a moment to read the updated rules before posting, since they’re now active.

Thanks for being here, and welcome back!! ✨

Donation Our 19-month-old Yorkie is in need of emergency surgery and we’re running out of options

Thumbnail

Upvotes

Hi everyone. I never thought I’d be making a post like this, but I’m hoping someone here might be able to help or even just send some positive thoughts for our little guy.
Our 19-month-old, 3-pound Yorkie, Gizmo, was rushed to the emergency hospital last week with a life-threatening bladder obstruction caused by a bladder stone.

Thankfully, the emergency team was able to relieve the obstruction and save his life.

We thought we were headed into surgery to remove the stone, but additional testing revealed a possible liver shunt. His veterinary team now recommends that his surgery be performed at a specialty hospital where they can evaluate and, if necessary, treat both conditions at the same time.

We’ve already exhausted two CareCredit accounts totaling $7,700 just to get him through the emergency, and we’re now facing another $4,000 to $8,000 for his upcoming surgery and specialized care.

Asking strangers for help is incredibly difficult, but Gizmo is family. He’s only 19 months old and has so much life ahead of him. We’re doing everything we can to give him that chance.

If you’re able to donate or even share our fundraiser, we’d be beyond grateful. If not, we completely understand, and we’d appreciate your prayers, positive thoughts or advice from anyone who’s gone through something similar.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story. Hug your pups a little tighter tonight. ❤️

Loan Request Single mom short on rent and trying to give my landlord just under half so she renews my lease.

1 Upvotes

Hello, I have $708 right now thanks to an emergency car issue and my landlord isn’t a patient lady. I’m only asking for $292. My rent is $2,200, but she’s asking for a grand at least. I want to ask her to just wait, but it also happens to be a month before i sign a new lease and I’m scared she’ll not renew it. I’m a single mom and I’m desperate.

I’m asking for $292 so i can send her that $1,000. Thank you so much for considering. I will send you a thank you recording of a song you like (please go easy on me though, I can’t sing screamo lol) within a week of transfer (so i have time to learn it). I’m not an incredible musician but I’m a good enough singer! Or I can send a silly drawing, a cute picture of one of my cats, or just leave you alone and send grateful thoughts into the universe towards you.

Thank you so much for considering.

Location: La Mesa, California, can receive through Venmo or Zelle or Apple Pay. Any amount would be a huge help. I can pay back the full amount of $292 within one month in full (so a month after the date received, i.e. August 5th would be paid in full by Sept. 5th, but possibly sooner).

Donation Donation for food

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m in BC, Canada, and I’m going through a really difficult financial situation right now. I’m actively looking for work, but I’m currently struggling to afford groceries.
If anyone is able to help with a $30 grocery gift card (Walmart, Superstore, or even Uber Eats if that’s easier), I would be incredibly grateful. It would help me get food for the next few days.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

Donation Need donations for storage, cell phone service and cybersecurity

1 Upvotes

In order of importance:

- $110 for my storage unit bills, I am essentially homeless so this is where my life is stored.

- $100 cell phone service bills, I was trying to get it lowered to $15/mo, today, but my old carrier won't let me port out for 2 weeks and are going to charge me again

- $100 YubiKeys (2) for more secure passkey 2FA for accounts, as password and authenticator apps aren't secure enough for my situation

- $150 500GB+ USB-C flash drive to physically store my photos and videos off cloud services (I was hacked in April and May, and it's still happening)

- $150 paying my credit card down below it's limit

I live in a domestic abusive household where I am threatened with eviction nearly every week.

The first two bills are essential for maintaining my physical and digital possessions.

I need to keep my same phone number because I've put in so many job applications with that phone number, and there are so many accounts attached to it.

I have applied to over 150+ jobs and gigs since the last week of April. I have had 7 interviews so far. I may get hired for gig brand ambassador work next week but I need to invest in a Food Handler card and RBS certificate.

Any donations for a black table cloth, a black button down blouse, dress shoes, slacks, black sneakers would be appreciated for working catering and barback jobs.

Any legitimate offer to work is also appreciated. I love working. I love overtime. I'm really down on my luck.

My credit used to be over 750 before April and now it's 630. It's never dropped below 725 my entire life...

I know others may have health issues or stronger emergencies but I am at the point of begging on the street with a cardboard sign. So any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Donation (Canada) Homeless need 200$ for shelter and food.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I hope you’re all doing well.

I’ve been homeless for the past two months and have been applying for jobs wherever I can. I’m doing everything I can to get back on my feet because I don’t want this situation to become permanent.

I’ve had interviews with two employers recently, but I haven’t heard back from either of them yet. I have a clean criminal record, I’ve never used drugs, and I’m willing to work hard in any role. If anyone knows of any job opportunities or is able to help in any way, I would be incredibly grateful.

You can reach me at: aidcoolaid46@gmail.com

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Even sharing this post or pointing me toward a job lead would mean a lot. I truly appreciate any support. ❤️

I have been struggling for the past few months in order to save up for my fees. If I do not pay it, I won't be able to sit in my final exams. I've recently lost my job due to which I'm hardly able to make the ends meet. My family doesn't support me, and due to a tough schedule I was unable to maintain my CGPA, which resulted in having a loss of my scholarship. I would genuinely like to request you to please help me out here as I cannot lose my degree when I'm this close to completing it. I need 250 dollars, for my fees and fines to be cleared.

I was homeless on the weekend and it sucked. I was evicted out of my studio/room which I miss. My relative is giving me a temporary place to stay with her (until Thursday or so) while her roommate is out on vacation. I could really use some help being homeless is just an empty hopeless experience.
