Biography
Hello everyone, Wishing you a wonderful day! Where my story begins well, here I am a mom of a 10 year old girl and she has been a true blessing to my life. She is a true strength in the tough times and our belief in God keeps us going. Maybe once in a while we go backwards but with His help and the Angels He puts in our lives makes the struggles worth going through.
We have had a big struggle this year of keeping my home from being auctioned off on Sheriff sale. As of right now it is on stand still because of the help of Microgiving and others that helped me come up with money to keep me from losing it. Thank you for all your help.
Well, the problem is when I had the home put on hold every creditor from the past came at me full force. I had ones from 9 to 10 years ago wanting to take me to court because they thought since my home wasn't selling yet I must have lot's of money. Boy, were they wrong! One even wants to take me to court for a whole $96. Wow! They must really need their money!! Bill collector's I would say is the less joy in my crazy and nutty life. To think they call me and ask for money. What should I say " Am I a bank" no but, I can give you the address to one.
My request is to have help to save my home from Sheriff auction. Microgiving has been sent all the verifying documents of what is going on. We have no way of saving our home. I am working in so many ways and so many jobs and still cannot come up with enough. I have a house and pet sitting business, I clean homes, make jewelry, have a booth in the city at the Flea Market three times a week, I do any jobs that I can get a hold of.
It is not because I didn't want to pay the house mortgage, I missed one month and then tried to send them some money but they sent it back and said it was not enough from then on I could not catch up. Sent several letters asking them to help and see if a loan modification could be done and ask for them to send papers for me to fill out for their help. I never got one letter back other than to say they were taking my home.
I am praying that those who read this if you at all can help I would so much appreciate it. If our home is taken we have no money to go on to start all over, we have no where to go to.
Our home is a cheap, and simple ranch with 3 small bedrooms. Nothing special other than to say it is our home. We have no extra things of great value. I have been selling anything and everything I can to help save our home. My daughter is even selling clothes and toys to try and help. I have had things in garage sales.
Thank you for listening to my request and I pray there are many angels out there to help. Have a wonderful day and may God guide your every move~ Blessings to all of you.
My Purpose
Praying that I am able to save my home from Sheriff auction. If we lose our home we have no money to start over and no where to go to. I am asking for help with $10,000 to help save my home. It is not the full amount I need but, will truly help. I am trying to make the rest by working many hours before the date to help also.
Recent changes in my life : I have lost 3 brothers. One from a drunk driver, one was murdered, one died of a heart attack. My biological father was also murdered. I have a certified paralegal trying to help me get things back to order by helping me with a budget and working with creditors so that I may hopefull soon have stability for my daughter. That I don't have to wonder where the next money or food is coming from.

Well my dear diary, it is time for me to laugh and know that I am close to going crazy. For almost every side has been hit at and I am still standing.
Of course we have the frig/freezer that went out, then my van breaks down on a main highway and stranded there for 3 hours with daughter in it. Now, I have a wonderful lawyer trying to get money from a bill I owed almost 10 years ago.
Wasn't my house being up for auction enough to deal with. What more shall this week bring for me to deal with? Should I lay down and quit? I have no money to take care of any of these things.
I must wonder, what am I really doing in this life? When does it all end. I can only sit and stare at the computer and laugh~ Ha Ha~
Until the next time..... >>>
Description: I have received a letter that Microgiving has a copy of showing that my home will be put
up for Sheriff Auction on August 19, 2009.
We have two mortgages and the first one is just fine and on time with the payments. We
have had so many things hit us from all directions that we have struggled to keep up with
the second Mortgage. In fact there is only a couple of years left to pay the 1st Mortgage
off. It is in no way an expensive home. It is a small ranch home with small rooms but it
is our home and we do not want to lose it. We have had our home flooded out with no
insurance and never recovered from that. I had ruptured appendix and almost died and had
no insurance It has been impossible to get insurance because of the price it is.
We are asking for help with $8,000. That is not enough to save our home but, we are
trying to pick up as many jobs as we can and going in all directions. I am doing all I
can to help come up with money also. I am trying to pick up all the jobs I can to help
keep things going.
I believe in God and I know we will help us through evertythings. Thank you so much for
reading and I will pray that God will my send me the hlep that is needed.
My progress: I have a small amount of money already started to help pay so that I can keep my home I
thank each of you for taking the time to read this and I pray that our Request will come
true.
This is a long term need assistance request for a family of 2 adults & 1 children
My message: When someone says they are losing their home I truly know the fear, frustration and heart ache there is to go with the shock that your home you have had for 22 years is all of a sudden gone,
Do I want to lose my home of course not. My daughter ask "Mom if they take our home does that mean they take my things too".
Am I lazy and just not paying my bills. No that is not the case at all. I have tried to pick up every single job that I can to help save my home. So many things in the past 22 years have led to this frustrating moment. And I have nothing to go on if we do lose it to start over. Which in so many words what I am trying to say is that I have no where to go to if this auction goes on.
I am coming to all of you who read this and ask if you would take the time to pray and wish us well as we go through this ruogh time. Any help wether pray, encouraging words and financial support it will help us in more ways than you can imagine.
I want to thank each and everyone of you for taking the time to read my request and hoping that you will be able to help my family in some way.
I have lots of faith and trust that God will see us through and know that there are many caring people.
If you are reading this and willing to help than God answered my prayer. He will bring those into my path that can help save my home~
If it was my choice I would be on the other end of this request. I dream of the day that I can read the request and have the ability to share to many others when they are hurting. It is never fun to be on the end of being in need. If I could I would fix this myself and go on with a smile but, this is to big for me and hope that you can take the time to help me with this request.
Any finances will be directed to saving my home. 100% will be used for my home. If I do not come up with enough money and still lose my home which I will not do till the bitter end all money will help to relocate to a rental.
I do thank you and have confindence that God will touch the hearts of those who can help. I have asked God to bring those into my life that will help save my home and He is good and just to help in that way.
Have a wonderful week to all of you and God Bless you now and forever~
Supporting Documentation: MJ has the following documentation
Do you qualify for any additional help?: I am checking out every avenue I can to help us save our home. I have not been able to find someone who has any answered yet that I need. I have confindence that God will see us through and send the people needed to help Save our Home.
What local/other agencies have you contacted?: No local agency can help us. We are looking into get a lawyer in hopes that he can help us but, then that will cost so much more It is truly coming down to the idea that we will have to file bankruptcv if we don't have a miracle happen soon~ I truly do not want to file bankruptcy. I know we can do this without going that far with your help~
Did you get denial letters? (if so are they attached to your request?): No I did not. Just a letter saying we have no home in a couple of weeks and have no money to start all over again. All I want is a clean new start and to not worry anymore of who things are going. Microgiving has all supporting documents and a picture of the ranch home. It is only a value of around $60,000. I truly need around $14,000 to help us but, I am putting less in hopes that all the jobs I am doing will help come up with the differences.
What other sources of income do you or your family receive?: House and Pet Sitting ~ House cleaning. Every single job that I can get a hold of. I even have a website telling people different jobs that I can do.I work as a vendor in a Flea Market 3 days out of the week. I am meeting myself coming and going trying to come up with money real soon.

In great need of a new, used Van. Mine has almost 300.000 miles and falling apart.
Description: I have a van that has almost 300,000 miles on it and I have been trying to work with it now for over a year but, there is always something wrong with it.
I have just came out of a hard time of trying to save my home from being auctioned off and then every creditor that could possible want money starting sending letters. I have a certified Paralegal helping get a budget but, it is taking all the money to get the creditors to leave me alone.
I am in no way asking for a new van. Just a good used one that I don't have to have fixed every little bit. I still owe a mechanic from last year of the work he did on it. I am requesting $4,000 but, will accept any amount and work with it.
If there is any way of help it would be so greatly appreciated. I would not be here but, I have no where else to go for assistance on this sort of help.

Why? The potential long term impact..
I live in the country and have no way of
transportation once my van totally gives up on
me. I have a 10 year old that I have to get to
doctor appointments and many other places.

Who I am:
I am a determined person to overcome all obstacles in my way~ I am excited to live and breath and will succeed. My goal is to teach my daughter that we can make it no matter how dark the storm~
What I need and what brought me to MicroGiving:
I am frustrated that I am unable to get health insurance for my family. Every check that is brought into our home is quickly used up to pay monthly bills and very little to get food and clothing.
My circumstance and my need for help:
What I am trying to do is pay off one mortgage ( have two ) If the first mortgage can be paid off we can for the first time since before my daughter was born have the chance to have health insurance and protect the future. Every check goes to the regular monthly bills. We are only left with a few dollars each week to pay for food and clothing~
Any Supports other than Microgiving:
I have sought and received assistance From Senator Evan Bayh. He helped by working with the second mortgage company from taking our home and now he is assisting us with past Federal and State taxes. Have made great progress this past year but, have this huge mountain to get over. We have a big chance if we can just get one major bill out of the way~
