[REQUEST] Send cards for a 95 year old’s birthday! [Niagara Falls NY]

I came across a post from someone I know on Facebook And thought of this sub immediately! Here is the post if you’d be interested in participating:

“”Our dad Julian Grana will,be 95 in September and we would love for him to receive 95 cards for his birthday . He has lived in Niagara Falls all his life. Thanks and we know he will read every single one.””

You can send at anytime because I believe the daughter is going to just collect them and give them all to him together on sept 23.

Help with couple days worth of food for daughters

10 Upvotes

Hi. I am a single mom with two autistic daughters who are my world. We have been struggling for a while after losing every thing escaping a violent home environment. Things are finally starting to look like they are posed to get better, if we can just tough it out a few more weeks we have finally been approved for assistance. But right now things are really, really rough, and right now I am panicking because despite everything I've tried to make happen, I literally have nothing to feed them for the next couple days when my food stamps should be on my card. If anyone can help with a little bit of groceries so we could make it through until then, I can then buy you some groceries in return. You don't even have to send money, if you would prefer to order the groceries yourself that would be just as amazing. Thank-you in advance to anyone who might decide to help my girls and I.

EDIT: Based on suggestions, I've made a list from Walmart...Amazon was so very very expensive for groceries... I'm not sure if I did this correctly or not but here goes the link!

https://www.walmart.com/lists/shared/WL/85096cf1-21d8-4580-9769-49513ef1bc2f

EDIT #2: I don't know if I have successfully attached the list to the Walmart it would need to be picked up from, but just in case, the order would need to be placed at:

Walmart Neighborhood Market 9301 Pine Forest Road Pensacola, Florida 32534

Need help with gas

Hey all! I'm just in need of like $20 bucks to get gas before my next paycheck so I can still get to work. My account ran a bit drier than I had been hoping after some maintenance on my car. It'd be really helpful! Thanks for reading!

Why not, right?

7 Upvotes

[Request] Hi, guys! Long time lurker, first time poster! I come not with an unfortunate circumstance, but a desire to make my team’s night a little better. I’m a shift manager at a fast food place with a Little Caesar’s right behind it. It’s a Friday night (which means football games for like 3 schools in our immediate area), and there’s so many of us scheduled tonight. I would post in a different subreddit, but I don’t quite have the comment karma for that one (I don’t use Reddit a whole lot, just occasionally). I’d appreciate greatly if any of you guys could help me help make everyone’s night tonight just a little better?

I need some help with rescue dogs in Brasil

6 Upvotes

My name is Nouah and I'm an animal rescue in Brasil, I'm asking for your help because most of you receive in dollar which is 5x more than the current of my country. What it means that I can ask for donations here and it would be cheaper once 1 dollar it's 5 reais.

In case you want some prove, this is our social medias Instagram.com/caesdaestacao Tiktok.com/caesdaestacao

But as you can see, we're not an NOG but volunteers, so some dogs cannot be rescue from the streets. Once we don't have a place, we have to pay for temporary places and it's expensive, so we need donations. To you it's $1 to us it's 5 reais. It's a lot!

Right now, we need help to a dog called Theo, I made an Amazon wishlist because I need feed and I need donations to make his blood texts to know if he has tick disease or diabetes and buy the antibiotics.

I will let the links below, may you just help us, please?

$15 lyft

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone!! I've never done this before, so it'll be an experience for the both of us!! But, I have $15 in lyft credits if anyone needs it!!

I'm not sure if that will get anyone far....I only use lyft to get to and from my therapist every 2 weeks, and her office pays for them lol!!

But, the driver who brought me home today violated his terms of service and triggered my anxiety pretty bad so they refunded my therapists office for the ride, and gave me the credit. I don't need it, I have my own vehicle.

Message me if you need it, and we'll figure out how to make it work together! (I already asked lyft, I can gift the credits)

Happy Christmas and Blessed Be!

Fuel help to get to and from work and baby drs appointments

I don't ask for help often. I have tried a couple other subreddits to only get sexually harassed/ or people trying to scam and I just need help. I just need $25 for fuel. I'm at my wits end. I'm ready to break down and cry.

I'm currently the only one working as my husband lost his job due to cut backs. I am currently 6 months pregnant and just need a little help till we can get back on our feet $25 should get me enough till my next payday or at least until I can scrounge together a couple more dollars! We've exhausted everything else. I can send you a picture of the fuel gauge next to a photo of my username and today's date. If you would like. Thank you

Need help after 3rd degree chemical burn and skin graft surgery!

4 Upvotes

The title covers the gist of it. I had an accidental spill at the beginning of January, and due to some negligent treatment from an ER dr my burn went from a first and second degree skin blister, to a 3rd and 4th degree necrotic burn. I just had a skin graft surgery on the 29th. I’ve been unable to work my regular job since the beginning of the month, but I was at least able to do some gig work. I am now unable to use my hand at all until the graft has (hopefully) taken. I created a gofundme, and I really am hoping to just get my basic bills, medical supplies, and our most basic of living needs covered. I explain it all in much more detail on the gofundme page, there are also pictures of my burn included. This has been an incredibly hard time for me and my little family, and any little bit helps. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!

REQUEST dinner for family (fixed after given advice)

4 Upvotes

I posted a couple nights ago about help with dinner for my kids and I since we are currently displaced and staying at a family member's home in a very small town, and was given some advice by someone on here that its easier to make an amazon wishlist than to ask for a fast food/grocery pickup order due to cost and overall helpfulness. I took the time today to put a few cheaper grocery things that i could use to make dinner for my 3 kids so we have more options than noodles every day. I also looked into some very simple recipes online that only take a couple ingredients per dish and should last with leftovers to stretch it further (mushroom chicken soup into mushroom noodle dish, chicken salad with crackers into sandwiches, etc). Hoping some things could be gifted to help out with the situation we're in right now, it would be very appreciated!

Need help taking care of some stray cats.

4 Upvotes

Hi guys. I am not normally one to ask for help because I believe there are more deserving people out there than me, but this is not about me. Here’s the situation:

I had an elderly neighbor who had several indoor cats. She passed away a few months back, and her family kicked the cats out of the house to sell the house. The cats ended up venturing over to our place because we were already feeding a couple of strays, so now two strays turned into nine strays. We’ve tried our best to keep up with them, but it’s getting financially difficult, especially since we have three indoor cats and four indoor dogs of our own to take care of. We’re currently in the process of saving money to take these strays in and get them spayed/neutered and their shots, but we’re struggling to keep up with food – especially since one cat is an older cat who has dental issues and can’t eat kibble. I gave her some of my indoor cat’s Fancy Feast, which she was able to eat well, but Fancy Feast is so expensive. So I tried feeding her Friskies instead, but it gave her diarrhea. So honestly, I’m really just asking for Fancy Feast to keep her fed and healthy.

Now, here’s a little more about what we’re currently doing for the strays and why there are additional items on the list. For starters, we have two sheds that we leave the doors open far enough that the cats can get inside. We put straw in the sheds to keep them warm. We also have a 3 seasons room connected to our house that we let them in so they can relax on the furniture in there (our other animals do not have access to this room). The 3 seasons room does not get heat, though, so I’m looking for ways to make sure they stay warm when it starts getting colder.

So, I’ve added a few extra items on the list which I do not expect anyone to buy, but I would really appreciate any help in getting some Fancy Feast for the outdoor cats, especially the senior cat. We’re good on Kibble for now because it’s cheap enough and goes a long way, but the senior kitty struggles eating it. Any help is appreciated!

Including some photos of four of the strays cuddled up in our 3 seasons room! And a picture of one of the kittens who came from the neighbor’s home who is pretty wild/timid but I’m working on trying to calm him down.

https://imgur.com/a/al6LvEk

Any help would truly be appreciated. Again, the Fancy Feast is the highest priority so I can keep the senior kitty fed. <3

Need help with 2-3 nights of lodging and food

4 Upvotes

I'm about to be on the street in Casper, WY.

I graduated from a treatment center for my alcohol issues on May 29, and have been focused on recovery rather than working full time. I'm presently waiting on a move-in date for subsidized housing, and receiving SNAP benefits. I've also applied for SSDI for the third time, and am awaiting that decision, which could come any day, but could well be denied because I try to keep working.

The people I was staying with are pot smokers and drinkers, and are facing eviction, so for my sobriety, I can't stick around. I'm trying to find a solution that allows me to keep attending my recovery classes and not overwhelm myself, which could lead to a relapse.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Help with car payment

4 Upvotes

Hello. I hate to even ask for any kind of help but unfortunately this past fee months have been hard for me and my family. My husband has been constantly sick from his diabetes. He has type 1 and has been a diabetic since he was 6 yrs old. His sugars have gotten increasingly bad causing him to be in and out of the er with dka. I myself have had multiple corrective surgeries for my scoliosis over the years causing me to be unable to work. I receive disability but it is hardly enough to keep us going with my husband missing so much work. We recently have been behind on rent as well so we have been receiving help from a rental assistance program but that does not cover other bills or my car payment. I try to work uber an hr or two once or twice a week but its very hard for me to be sitting in the car for long periods of time. We have a on year old daughter that i take care of full time as well. Im working on graduating from college this spring so that i may use my business administration degree to get an office job that can accommodate me properly. I hate being in this kind of situation but times are just hard right now anything would help im behind 2 payments. Each payment is $493 a month.

Help me finish my senior year

3 Upvotes

Hey yall, I'd really like to be able to continue school. This is my senior year. I've exhausted all options through financial aid, scholarships, everything. I usually pay for my schooling through my parents but due to recent events which resulted in me having to go no contact with my immediate family because of my safety, I no longer have the funds from them. These past few months have been very trying on me and I wasn't sure if I could keep going. I have endured verbal and physical abuse at the hands of my parents and at one point wanted to give up on life all together. But I soon quickly realized that getting my degree has always been the goal for me.If you could spare even a dollar, it would be greatly appreciated ❤️ - a desperate college student.

[Request] Help With Food Please

Hi everyone! I hope you all are doing well.

This might end up being cross posted as soon as I am able to post in the other groups.

I am wondering if anyone would help me with getting some food for my cats and myself

I only added a few items to the wishlist for myself to get by until I know if I'll have some money for extra food. I am disabled and live off of $1195 a month, I live alone and my rent is $1015 so I don't have much money to spare, my caseworker didn't send out my paperwork to recertify for ebt on time so I am waiting for her to push what i sent in late through.)

Thank you everyone so much! You are much appreciated 💜

Injured Single Mom

3 Upvotes

A little over a month ago my daughter's dad attacked me, stomped on my foot and ended up fracturing it. I was in a boot for four weeks and out of work. I was supposed to start physical therapy before I am cleared to go back to work but have not been able to start yet until I either make money or have my insurance come back. I've gone through all of my savings that I was supposed to use to get a new apartment for my daughter and I paying all of my regular bills and now medical bills. Any recommendations on how to obtain a good amount of money fast? Especially from from home. I've been trying to do everything that I can and am becoming desperate. Of course throughout all of this I have not received a penny from him and have been waiting for the legal case to take action. Anything is greatly appreciated!!!
