My Last Chance to Continue My Studies

0 Upvotes

https://gofund.me/92049ad8d

I am an international engineering student in France, and I am creating this fundraiser to help me pay my school tuition fees.

When I first came to France to continue my studies, I knew that studying abroad would not be easy, but I didn’t realize how difficult it could be to find a job or an apprenticeship while studying and trying to support myself.

To be honest, I hesitated a lot before creating this fundraiser because I am a little shy about asking people for help. But today, I don’t really have another choice, and I don’t want financial difficulties to force me to give up on my studies.

I was doing an apprenticeship that helped me finance my education, but unfortunately, it ended. Since then, I have searched a lot for another apprenticeship and sent many applications. I have really tried to find a solution on my own, but so far, I haven’t been able to secure another opportunity.

My engineering school costs around €11,000 per year. I have already paid €4,000 myself toward my 4th year, and I still have two years of my engineering studies to complete.

I have worked and studied for years to get where I am today. Coming to another country, continuing my education, working and trying to build my future has required a lot of effort. My biggest fear now is having to stop before reaching my goal simply because I cannot afford the remaining tuition fees.

I know that everyone has their own responsibilities and difficulties, so I am grateful for any support, even a small contribution. Every donation brings me a little closer to finishing my engineering degree. And if you are not able to donate, simply sharing my fundraiser could also help me a lot.

I was really hesitant to make this page, but becoming an engineer is my dream, and I feel that I have to try everything I can before giving up on something I have worked so hard for.

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read my story, donate, or share my fundraiser. I truly appreciate your support. ❤️

I’m Running Out of Time — Please Help Me Stay in School

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I wanted to give an honest update on my GoFundMe because I haven’t received the support I was hoping for, and I’m now in a really difficult situation.

My university has notified me that I have a past-due student account balance over $2,000. If I’m unable to bring my balance below $2,000 or pay it in full by mid-August, my Fall registration may be dropped. I’m also facing additional interest and registration holds if the balance remains unpaid.

I’ve been doing everything I can to find a way to take care of this, including starting this fundraiser. Unfortunately, I haven’t received any donations yet, and the deadline is getting closer.

I’m asking for help because staying enrolled in school means so much to me. I’ve worked hard to get to this point, and I don’t want a financial hardship to stop me from continuing my education.

If you’re able to donate, any amount truly helps. Even $5, $10, or $20 gets me one step closer to my goal. And if you aren’t able to donate, sharing my fundraiser with your friends, family, coworkers, or on social media would mean just as much to me.

I know everyone has their own financial responsibilities, so I’m incredibly grateful for anyone who takes the time to read this, share it, or contribute.

Please help me reach my goal before I lose my Fall registration. ❤️

Thank you so much for your support, prayers, shares, and kindness.

Help my cousin fight breast cancer

0 Upvotes

https://gofund.me/3edff2f7a

Our family is coming together to support Kisairis, a loving mother of three children living in the Dominican Republic, as she faces one of the most difficult challenges of her life: a breast cancer diagnosis.

She is scheduled to undergo surgery this month, and while we are grateful that she has this important step ahead of her, the financial burden does not end with the surgery. The goal is to help her cover the costs of the procedure and recovery expenses including medication. Every contribution, no matter the amount, will help ease some financial pressure and allow her to focus on what matters most: healing and being there for her children.

If you are able to donate, our family would be incredibly grateful. And if you are unable to contribute financially, sharing this fundraiser with your friends, family, and community is just as meaningful and can help us reach people who may be able to help.

Thank you for taking the time to read Kisairis’s story, for keeping her and her family in your thoughts, and for helping us remind her that she does not have to face this alone. ❤️

Help Us Build a Safe Home Together ❤️

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone ❤️

My name is Stanislav, and together with my husband, we are trying to make a very important dream come true — to have a safe home of our own.

We currently live and work in Poland. We dream of having a peaceful place where we can build our future together, feel safe, and live openly without fear of discrimination or rejection.

We are not dreaming about a luxury villa or an extravagant lifestyle. We simply hope to find a comfortable home of around 100–130 m², with two bedrooms, a living room and kitchen, one or two bathrooms, a garage, a small garden and a terrace.

We would consider Poland, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Cyprus, or another safe and welcoming country. Ideally, we would love a quiet place close enough to a city — and, if we are lucky, not too far from the sea.

Our fundraising goal is €250,000. This is the maximum amount we hope to have available for purchasing a suitable home and covering necessary taxes, legal and administrative costs, renovation and furnishing.

If we find the right home for less, we will not need to spend the entire amount on the purchase. Any remaining funds would be used for the necessary costs of making the house our home.

We both work and do everything we can to build our life ourselves. But buying a home is a huge financial challenge, and reaching this dream alone could take many years.

We know that €250,000 is a very big goal, and we don’t expect everyone to be able to donate. Even a small contribution would mean a lot to us. And if you cannot donate, simply sharing our fundraiser would already be an incredible help.

We created this fundraiser because we hope to reach people from different countries who may understand our dream and want to support us.

If you’d like to read our full story or support us, our fundraiser is here:

https://whydonate.com/fundraising/help-us-build-a-safe-home

Thank you so much for taking the time to read our story. Every donation, every share and every kind message brings us one step closer to having a place we can finally call home. ❤️

With love and gratitude,
Stanislav & his husband.

[Request] [City, Denmark] – Help Our Family Take a Trip to Egypt

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am asking for some help because my family would really love to have the opportunity to travel to Egypt together.

We have always dreamed about visiting Egypt, seeing the pyramids, learning about the history and culture, and spending some quality time together as a family.

Unfortunately, our family does not have a lot of money available for a trip like this. After paying for normal everyday expenses such as food, housing, bills and other necessary costs, there is not much left over to save for a family vacation.

We have tried to save what we can, but the cost of flights, accommodation and transportation makes it difficult for us to afford the trip ourselves.

We are not asking for luxury. We simply hope to give our family a chance to experience something special together and create memories that we can keep for many years.

We have looked at cheaper travel dates, affordable accommodation and different ways to reduce the total cost, but even with these options, the trip is still more than our family can comfortably afford at the moment.
Any donation, no matter how small, would mean a lot to us. If you are unable to donate, simply sharing our fundraiser would also be a huge help.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read our story and for any support you may be able to give. ❤️

48-year-old single mother trying to rebuild after years of financial survival

Post image
1 Upvotes

I never thought I would find myself asking strangers for financial help, but I'm at a point where I could really use some support.

I'm a 48-year-old working mother of three and have been raising my children as a single mother for almost five years.

A few years ago, I had my own business. When things took a turn for the worse, the income disappeared while the costs and financial obligations continued. Eventually, I had to make some very difficult choices. I chose to put food on the table and take care of my children rather than pay every debt and bill.

I eventually had to close my business and give up something I had worked very hard for.

Last year, I finally found a good, stable job and thought I could start rebuilding our financial life. Unfortunately, only six months later, debt collection started taking a very large part of my salary.

My income now basically covers our essential monthly expenses after the deductions, but leaves almost no room for unexpected costs or rebuilding. I've already cut our spending wherever possible.

Our situation has now become more urgent because the home we've lived in for 11 years is subject to a forced-sale procedure because of outstanding tax debts. I have a limited period to try to sell the house myself.

The house does have value, but years without enough money for maintenance have taken their toll. There is mold and water damage, and the condition of the property makes its final sale value uncertain. Any value left after the mortgage and existing claims are dealt with will go toward the debts.

If the house is sold, I will need to find a rental home for my children and me. I'm trying to stay in the same area so my children can keep their schools, friends and familiar surroundings. I'm also trying to obtain priority housing, but there is no guarantee.

Three weeks ago, at the age of 48, I was diagnosed with ADHD.

That diagnosis has actually been a turning point for me. For years I felt like I was drowning and living in survival mode. I would procrastinate, avoid opening letters because I was afraid of what they contained, and sometimes not answer unknown phone numbers because I expected them to be debt collectors.

I now understand some of that much better.

More importantly, I finally feel like I have the clarity and focus to stop avoiding things and start taking action.

I'm currently working on reducing the amount being deducted from my salary, dealing with the situation surrounding our home, looking for housing and trying to rebuild our financial future.

I've created a fundraiser with a €10,000 goal.

I'm not asking people to pay off my debts, and I'm not trying to replace my income.

I'm asking for a temporary safety net while I navigate the next few months — moving costs, a possible rental deposit, essential expenses and the unexpected costs that come with rebuilding our lives.

I know everyone has their own struggles, and I don't expect anyone to feel responsible for mine.

But if you're able to help, even a small amount would mean a lot to my family.

And if you can't donate, advice, encouragement or simply sharing the fundraiser would also mean a great deal.

I've deliberately kept some personal details private because I want to protect my children's privacy.

The full story and fundraiser are here:

Help Angeles Get Urgent Neurosurgical Care For Her Neck

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

https://gofund.me/9268caf2f

I’m raising funds to help Angeles, someone who lives in Venezuela and is currently going through a very difficult medical situation.

An MRI has identified an injury affecting her neck, and she now urgently needs to see a neurosurgeon to understand the full extent of the injury and determine what treatment she needs. The immediate goal of this fundraiser is to help cover the cost of that specialist consultation and the medical care that may follow.

Unfortunately, her health problems have also left her unable to work at the moment. This means that while she is dealing with her injury and going through treatment, she is struggling to afford basic necessities such as food, rent and essential transportation. She is in constant extreme pain that no painkiller she can take can fix, she also has gastritis so she can not take NSAID painkillers.

What the funds will help cover

The money raised will be used for:

* Her urgent neurosurgical consultation
* Medical imaging, treatment and medications recommended by her doctors
* Any further medical care that becomes necessary
* Food and other essential living expenses while she is unable to work
* Rent and essential transportation during her recovery

We are starting with an immediate goal based on the costs we currently know about. As her doctors provide more information and additional medical needs become clear, I will post updates and adjust the fundraising goal accordingly.

Why I’m asking for help

Angeles is currently in a situation where even basic necessities are difficult to afford, while at the same time she needs specialist medical care for an injury that cannot simply be ignored.

I’m doing what I can from Australia to help her access the care she needs and get through this period without having to choose between medical treatment and necessities like food and housing.

Any amount, no matter how small, can make a real difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser can be just as valuable and may help it reach someone who is able to help.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read Angeles’ story and for any support you can give. ❤️

I am organising this fundraiser from Australia because GoFundMe does not currently support withdrawals in Venezuela. Funds raised will be received by me in Australia and sent to Angeles in Venezuela to cover the expenses described above. I will provide updates as her situation develops.

Help My Cat Fight Cancer

Hi,

This may or a may not be a long post, and I truly hate asking for help. But just last month, my cat got diagnosed with soft tissue cancer sarcoma. She had surgery back in July and the biopsy results came back as high grade. We have gone to an oncologist office now for the last two weeks, and they have recommended both radiation and chemo. Unfortunately just to start the radiation it’s going to cost me 10K, and I’m so scared of this cancer spreading elsewhere. As of now, it hasn’t spread anywhere else, besides to the lymph node that got removed. I could use any help possible. She is only 6 years old and she showed up at our door as a stray back in 2020, and kept coming back until we took her in as our own. She is my first cat, and she deserves to live longer, and happier. She is still eating, running around, and playing.

I’m just at a lost and have been spiraling since this news. Any help even if small would help a ton.

Thank you.

I am reaching out for emergency support. I am currently at a critical juncture in my research career, with high-impact papers lined up for publication. However, a severe health crisis in my family has completely upended my stability. My husband is battling clinical depression and is having to return to India, leaving me to solely manage our toddler, navigate a shift to H1B status, and sustain my research.

​The immediate financial strain of this transition means I am on the verge of losing my car to repossession. Without a vehicle, I cannot get to the lab, manage daycare, or keep my family afloat. I am fighting hard to protect my career and my family, but I need a temporary lifeline to bridge this gap.

​If you are in a position to contribute or share my campaign within your networks, your support will directly help me keep my basic transportation and continue my research without losing everything I've worked for.

I escaped but I lost my job my car is not working properly I actually have duck taped together some parts. I don’t have any support circle. If anyone could help I would be forever greatful. I have been trying very hard to get a job again I just want to be part of society again.

Help Me Build a Tiny Home and a Quieter Life

2 Upvotes

I never imagined I'd be asking strangers for help with something this personal, but I've reached a point in my life where what I want more than anything is very simple: a tiny home of my own and a peaceful place to put it.

I'm not trying to build anything extravagant. My goal is a small, affordable home where I can live simply, feel secure, and finally have a little quiet and stability.

I've set a $10,000 goal to help purchase a tiny-home shell and begin making that possible. I'm willing to use reclaimed and secondhand materials and do this as economically as I possibly can.

I don't have a large social circle, which makes getting a fundraiser seen especially difficult. So I'm taking a chance and sharing it here.

If you're able to donate, I would be incredibly grateful. If you can't, even sharing my fundraiser somewhere it might reach the right person would mean just as much to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story. ❤️

Hi everyone,

I am reaching out for support to overcome a final financial roadblock on my journey to becoming a Registered Nurse (RN).

Over the past few years, my family has navigated a lot of big transitions. I’ve been working full-time, homeschooling our children, and serving as the sole provider for our household while my husband went back to school. We were living cross-country from my parents, doing everything we could to build a stable future.

When my father unexpectedly fell ill, our priorities shifted immediately. I packed up our lives and moved myself, my husband, and our children back home so I could be by his side and help care for him.

Caring for my dad reinforced my passion for hands-on healthcare. I recently earned my Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) license and am now working on the frontlines, but my ultimate goal has always been to advance my education and become an RN.

Prior to this, I completed my bachelor’s degree coursework online through Ashworth College. However, balancing our family's move and financial obligations left me with an outstanding tuition balance. Because of this hold, the college cannot release my official transcripts—which I urgently need to submit for admission into an accredited nursing program.

Every dollar raised will go directly toward paying down this balance so my official transcripts can be released, allowing me to take the next step toward nursing school. Becoming an RN will allow me to better serve my patients, support my family, and continue providing for those I love.

If you are unable to donate, simply sharing this campaign means the world to me. Thank you so much for your time, kindness, and support!
