For the past few days, my little dog Copito has been trying to vomit after eating; I tried changing her food, but I didn't see any improvement. She seems very lethargic and clearly unwell, so I decided to take her to the vet to see if it might be a stomach issue. To be honest, though, I only have $20 left in my bank account, and the cost of the vet visit alone exceeds that amount. I spoke briefly with the vet on the phone, and the consultation fee is $28; depending on the diagnosis, I might also need to buy soft food for Copito. I don't know the cost of soft food since I've never had to buy it before, but I hope or at least assume it isn't too expensive. I usually buy her regular food for just under $23, so I imagine the soft food costs something similar. Even using the money I have in the bank which I know isn't much I’m still short by $31, which is money I simply don't have right now.

Hi everyone!

This is a little unusual for me, and I feel a bit shy asking, but I thought I'd give it a try.

I'm a huge fan of both LEGO and SpongeBob SquarePants, and the new LEGO SpongeBob set (11386) is something I'd absolutely love to own. Unfortunately, I can't afford it at the moment.

I've tried saving up for it myself, but whenever I manage to put some money aside, it eventually has to go toward rent, bills, groceries, and other everyday expenses. I understand that those things have to come first, but it has been a little disappointing to keep putting this particular dream on hold.

I'm hoping to raise $200 to help cover the cost of the set. I know LEGO is a luxury and certainly not a necessity, so I completely understand that not everyone will feel comfortable helping with something like this. If anyone happens to be willing and able to contribute, I'd be genuinely grateful.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Whether or not you're able to help, I hope you have a wonderful day! 💛

Hello, I had graduation last week and I'm still at my hostel. I have not been able to pay this month's rent yet and also haven't travelled back home to at least celebrate this milestone. Transport to travel home is $35 and my hostel rent is $50. I have PayPal and Remitly.

My mom passed unexpectedly last year in Portugal. I’ve been trying like crazy to save enough to get her ashes and a few personal belongings back, and take them to her home country of Chile for a memorial.

Because of 4 surgeries and subsequent physical therapy limiting the number of hours I can work, I’ve only been able to make enough for my own expenses.

It’s time to bring her home. Please help by donating or sharing the link to my GoFundMe. Feel free to comment/message any questions!

Thank you!

Hey everyone,

I’m a Massachusetts dad of four kids under 8 years old, balancing a full-time career, running a lawn improvement side hustle, raising my kids, volunteering as Treasurer for a local autism non-profit and tackling just about every DIY project I can get my hands on.

One of my sons has autism, he is level 3 non-verbal autistic, and being a dad has taught me more about patience, perspective, and what really matters than anything else in my life.

A few months ago, I entered the Ace Hardware SuperDad competition, never expecting much to come of it, and really just as an alternative to applying for autism grants since so many have income requirements that make us ineligible.

With the help of family and friends I made it all the way to the Group Finals and I’ve been in first place for most of the competition, but recently slipped into second.

Now I’m trying to reach a few people beyond my usual circle.

The winner receives $25,000 and a chance to appear in a national Ace Hardware commercial. While I know it’s a total longshot, I’d be remiss if I didn’t try to win this money mainly to support my autistic son’s expensive medical costs.

**I’m not asking anyone to spend money.** The competition allows one free vote every 24 hours, although it does require Facebook verification.
If my story resonates with you and you’d like to help another dad out, I’d genuinely appreciate a free vote.

Thanks for reading, and thanks to everyone who supports dads showing up for their families every day.

Hello, we fell behind on rent, and need $700.00 by tomorrow afternoon to avoid having to move out by noon on 10/16.

Restore Hope is open Tuesdays and Thursdays only, and if I can show them that I have $1493.00, they will cover the remaining $1100.00.

I have all but $700.00

We are so close.

Here is my go fund me, but released funds take 2 to 5 days to show up in the bank account, which would still be appreciated and helpful, but isn't fast enough to avoid eviction. I did post on r/gofundme. Tough crowd over there.

https://gofund.me/ec7ca0790

i don't know if I can find a place to move to in 2 days.

Today I am going to CSL to see if I can sell plasma, and my son and I will both go to a local signature loan place here in town.

Any assistance will be eternally and enthusiastically appreciated!

ETA: I do have paypal and cash app.

We recently had some emergency expenses come up medical bills and having to get a new car after ours got totalled and until next Friday, we have very little to live on.

I have been struggling with debilitating symptoms of PTSD and depression. Cooking has been so overwhelming for me, even though I usually enjoy it, that I sometimes just don't eat. I also have fibromyalgia and have been flaring up big time since I got the flu. I am currently job searching, but my husband works, so we should be able to catch up in a few weeks. We are just struggling to just get to next week. I feel extremely guilty reaching out for help, but I feel like I am drowning. Any and all help is appreciated. I don't expect anything and I hope to be able to pay it forward when I am in a better position to do so.

Hello, I had to help my mom out of a sticky situation yesterday with her vehicle, and it took a huge chunk of what I had financially.

Could anyone spare $15 on CashApp?

Hello! This is my 2nd post here, Char Char has made it to the Quarterfinal Round , he is in 4th place but needs to be in the top two to progress on.

I’m asking for votes for my sweet boy, Char Char! I rescued him outside in the middle of winter in 2019 and he’s struggled with allergies for most of his life. The past 2-3 years it has been getting slowly worse and this year has been especially difficult, with ongoing respiratory, sinus, and immune system issues. He’s been to the emergency vet 3 times and our regular vet 7–10 times for testing, but we still don’t have answers.
If he wins, I’ll use the prize money to help cover additional testing and treatments to figure out what’s going on and help him feel better.
If you’re able to, please vote for my boy! You can vote once a day, every day, and every vote helps us get closer to getting him the care he needs. Thank you!

Please vote for my pet in the Top Pets competition 🤩 https://toppets.com/v/cq4m6c

There are 5 rounds of voting and people can vote once a day, every day and votes restart at 0 for each round.

To vote you will need to create an account or connect a facebook account.

(Most recent health updates, we did another test this week and one of them take back positive. Lucky its not cat herpes/hiv or anything like that. So he is now on a 20 day course of antibiotics but they vet still wants to do sinus xrays as well as start him on a special prescription food to see if his immune system improves to help stop the contant sickness, so we will be able to see what other testing may need done)

EDIT: I got this cleared up through other means.

Please, I'm new here im sorry, one of my chicks, baby chickens, swallowed an earplug and she will die if it doesnt get removed. We cannot pay for it since my mom's care credit card got cut up and frozen when she applied for debt relief and the rest of our money is basically being held up so we can pay property taxes and keep our home. We live in Colorado, USA.

I dont know the exact price, the last time we took a chicken to the vet for survery it was $100, we will need no more than $300 our specific clinic only takes care credit for payment plans no other will work and I cannot apply for care credit as i do not have an income of my own in any form. I can provide receipt if I get the money, and I can provide the specific clinic we will go to if you need to know. Cashapp preferred also have paypal

Good evening. Two wks ago i found out that i have a level 4 cat allergy. This has devastated me and my family because weve always loved cats. But from 2015-2026 ive had one who passed in 2020; so i adopted my now cat in 2021.

I began having breathing issues etc but never put it together until now. I saw an allergist and it was confirmed. My symptoms are very bad and i now have severe allergic asthma. A trusted family friend is taking her so she will be loved and cared for. 💕

At the moment the carrier we had is now too small for her to endure the hour drive. Im between jobs and cannot afford to purchase one for her. My friend will be here sunday to pick her up.

This has been heartbreaking for me. But i have to take care of my health. If anyone can help id appreciate it.

Thank You.

Hi everyone, I just got a new job and moved about two months ago, and I've been struggling with expenses during this transition time. This month has been especially difficult because on top of rent and bills I had to pay out of pocket for my doctors visit and prescriptions, as I don't receive health insurance for another month.

I'm mainly struggling with groceries, I have a couple things, but I'm quickly running out. Some pantry staples that will last would be so helpful until my paycheck hits, and I made an Amazon list of shelf stable items. I've applied for food assistance and am on a waiting list, and I usually go to a food pantry, but my car has been in this shop this month. Thank you for reading this and anything is appreciated!

Hey all. I really don't wanna go out to people and practically beg for money, but this is an urgent situation that I alone am not able to cover. My beloved chihuahua Chica has had a hernia developing for about a year, and me and my family has struggled to hold enough money to pay for the estimated $1,100 surgery due to us being low income. We've looked at all sorts of options, but we're always met with either a clinic didn't do this specific surgery, has no medical plan for us to enroll in or were unable to enroll in, or the price was too outrageous (highest we saw was $11,000, not surprising as we live in California). We've come very close to paying this finally, but a family emergency has pushed us back, and we need it more than ever now as Chica has began to show signs of pain and discomfort, and we fear the hernia could burst/rupture at any moment.

I have a GoFundMe already set up with a link below and I stumbled upon this reddit in my time of need and was hoping if anyone here would be able and willing to donate anything to go towards her surgery. If the estimated price turns out to be a bit higher then we'll do our best to cover that gap ourselves, but anything you can donate will be immensely appreciated 🙏.

Urgent Surgery for Chica

Hi everyone,

Our sweet fur baby, Nia, has been our constant companion for 15 wonderful years. She has brought so much love, comfort, and joy into our lives, and now we want to do everything we can to keep her comfortable and healthy in her senior years.

Nia has been diagnosed with a heart murmur. To safely address her health, her veterinarian needs to perform a chest X-ray to check her heart size and evaluate her lungs. Additionally, she is suffering from dental disease and requires urgent dental work to relieve her pain. We were told, she has a tooth that is being absorbed by her gum, and also 2 other teeth with a lot of work needed. Because Nia has a heart murmur, her dental procedure requires specialized care and monitoring under anesthesia, which has significantly increased the veterinary costs.

How your donations will help:

- Chest X-ray and diagnostic imaging

- Pre-anesthetic bloodwork and heart monitoring

- Dental surgery and pain management

A $5 or $10 donation would mean the world to us and will go directly toward Nia’s veterinary bills. If you are unable to donate, sharing Nia's story with other animal lovers would be greatly appreciated also.

Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and support.
