Welcome!

To those that adventure onto this site, thank you!
I'm making this site to seek donations for my family.
We are your average hard working family that has fell onto bad times.
You can learn more about each of us in the about me page.
 
I've seen many sites that people can pay a fee and they have like a message board that they can then plead to people. I wanted to make a site just for my family. I never thought that I would be on here asking people for their donations. It's like me standing on the side of the road with a sign that reads "Will work for food". Well here's my sign on the world wide web!!
 
It's embarrassing to do this, but when it comes to my family I willing to do this if It's going to keep a roof over our head.
 

If you would like to donate please click here!

Let me tell you a little about us and our situation. We are a family of 6. Mom, Dad, two boys ages 12 & 10, and two girls ages 7 & 3. They two boys and the oldest girl doesn't live with us on a full time basis, they live with their mom. I'm their soon to be step mom.
 
I'm a full time student at our local community college pursuing a Registered Nursing Degree. I was lucky enough to get grants, but I also had to take out student loans.
My fiance is a mason, he has a lot of health conditions that makes him unable to work, he's trying to apply for SSA, but it has not gone through.
 
Right now we are on Public Assistance from the state, in reality it helps, but then  it doesn't. We get $410.00 to live on a month and $25.00 to get back in forth from taking my daughter to daycare and me to school. Now bare in mind that are rent is $400.00 a month. Not including any of our utilites like electric, gas, and phone. I have the internet thanks to my mom and dad for my schooling. My fiance has to pay child support and they want 145.00 out of our public assistance. We just can't afford it.
 
We live in a two bedroom apartment. When we have the kids it's very crowded. We don't get to see them as much as we like to. Now that it's summer we usually have them a lot, but we haven't been able to because we can't afford to. More food gets eaten, more utilites get used. We can't even take them anywhere.
 
We drive a 1980's Chevy pickup truck. It has over 400,000 miles on it. It's running on it's last leg. We also have a 1984 Chevy Camaro that doesn't run. Neither vehicle is big enough to haul all of us around when we have all the kids.
 
All I'm asking is if you have a big heart or if you have been in are situation that you could please help!!. Just by donating a $1.00 or $2.00 it would add up.

What we are hoping to accomplish by asking for donations is to be able to pay are bills, provide more food for our family, be able to buy school supplies, maybe look into a new vehicle that will fit our whole family.

Again we would think all that do donate!

Here I might add an entry whenever I make an update to my web site. Or I may put on here how much everyone has donated at that point and to put thank yous!!
