I want to help my friend get her teeth fixed

I want to help my friend get her teeth fixed

My friend has lived her life helping other people. She is a wife, a mother, a teacher, a helper, a friend. Her family goes out of their way to help other people with anything great or small. If she sees someone in need, she does what she can to fulfill that need. Now, I want to give back to her, and help her get her teeth fixed. Many times I hear her in so much pain because of her teeth. She has dental insurance, but even after they pay what little they will pay there is still this enormous amount left. Some of it will be for cosmetic (Even though I think she has a beautiful smile, she has expressed being self-concious about it) but for the most part it will be so that she will not be in pain anymore. Please help?

Last year the love of my life lost her home and all of her and her son's things in a fire, and they nearly lost their lives. We're in an amazing relationship and I desperately want to help her out. I'm looking for a house to buy, but right now I don't have much money to furnish the house. She has nothing, and I have very little. There are certain circumstances withholding her from having a job right now, so she has very little income. I work full-time and am coming up with the money for a down payment on a house. I can't afford much else.

Money to fix our one and only family car

Money to fix our one and only family car

I've always been more of a giver, than a taker. I enjoy helping others in their time of need and would do anything to help anyone. Even those who I don't know. I have a very big heart and always donate whatever I can to fund raisers to help people who are in need of surgery, or other medical help. I'm always donating clothes and other items to needy families and homeless shelters. It does my heart good to know that because of just a little something that I can do, made someone's life a little easier.

But now it's my turn. My uncle, who was a father to me, died at the age of 58 last summer of cancer. Ever since, I have fallen into a deep depression and it seems that nothing has been going right for my family. We're good people, so I really don't understand why bad things have been happening to us.

My husband & I suffer from some health issues, and have several weekly appointments with doctors that we must attend. A few weeks ago, our one and only car broke down and we have barely been able to keep any of our appointments. It is hard for us to find someone in the family, or friends, to take us where we need to go. We live in a very small city that doesn't have a bus route. If it did, we'd be set!

We are requesting $500 so that we are able to get our car fixed. All of the money that we currently make goes to our electricity bill, rent, phone bill, and groceries. We have nothing left to get our car fixed. We aren't extravagant people - we don't have cable Internet, nor cable TV. We don't spend what money we do have on things that we don't need.

Please find it in your hearts to grant us our wish. Thank you and God bless!

I desperately want to give a child a very loving home here with me, my husband and our pets. I am doing all kinds of fundraising to help offset the expensive adoption. We would like to raise $5,000 of the $20,000 we need to bring home our daughter, Lulu.

I need a spa day! I broke my ankle in January and am finally out of my cast. My poor feet need some pampering, and my muscles have been overworked lugging around that heavy cast as well. Summer is coming, and I want to have nice tootsies for sandal season. I checked the price at a local salon, and a package deal with a massage, manicure, and pedicure is $323!

Yikes! The cost of beauty is high! I'm a single mom and want to feel beautiful. :-) And my adorable child is extremely challenging, and runs me absolutely into the ground. I could use a bit of relaxation after chasing him around for days on end!

Yes, it is a totally selfish wish, which is why I put it in the naughty category!

Help for friend leaving abusive husband with 3 children.

I have a friend who is staying with me - she has 3 children (8yrs, 7yrs, and 22 mos.) - and has finally gotten the courage to leave her abusive husband after 9 years. She is going through the womens center for help with a divorce & a protective order - but she needs a home and money to take care of her children. Her "husband" will not help and is still trying to guilt, threaten, and force her to come back. He is threatening to take the children from her and has already tried to get the police and CPS to help him. Luckily, they see that she is doing the right thing. She is working but doesn't make much money yet. She has no furniture and very minimal clothes for the children. Most of their things were left behind when she ran with them ... all she has is what she could fit into her trunk. I think that any funds that I could get for her from here would help get her started. She has no other family to speak of and my husband and I are doing all that we can. Although - my husband is about to lose his mind with 4 extra people in our home (Especially since our family already has 4 people LOL). Please help her (and me). Thank you!!!

We just moved from a cold climate to a HOT climate and I'd love to have more than just jeans and long sleeved shirts to wear this summer. Plus there's not much selection in this town, so I basically have to take what I can get or travel for an hour to get to a decent mall. :P

Vow Renewal For Our 10 Year Anniversary

  • By: AmyBerry

  • Wish Points: 234.28

On August 11th, my husband and I will have been married for 10 years. We eloped when we got married, and now that we are parents ourselves, see how much it hurt our parents not to be there to witness our marriage.

We are planning on having a vow renewal to celebrate our marriage and 10 years together. We've had some pretty rocky times during our marriage, and would like to renew our vows to each other, in front of our family.

The money I am asking for, will pay for a nice little reception and food for after our ceremony. We are only inviting our families and closest friends, but my husband has a very large family! Some of the money will also be used to purchase nice outfits for myself, my husband, and our 2 children (ages 9 & 6) to wear for the ceremony.

This wish is a naughty wish because even if we don't win, we will still have our vow renewal. It just won't be as "extravagant" as we'd like it to be. :-)

Thanks so much for your time and consideration!

I need help with donations and votes. Recently went on a vacation to South Carolina. Had a small family reunion. We made lots of good memories. Tha only one missing was my btother who had to work. On June 21st I got a call at 3:30 am from my mother stating she was on her way to identify my brother. Never expected this phone call. That day I flew to SC and spent 2 weeks knowing I could not afford it but my family needed me. I had to remain strong. I took care of my mother who is not in good health. I did everything that needed to be done. My brother was sleeping in an apartment he shared with a friend. He woke up and for some reason went in to the other bedroom where his friend was playing with a gun. As soon as my brother walked in the gun went off and my brother was shot in the face below the left eye. He died instantly. I feel so many emotions and I'm told this is normal. This makes it harder on me because I'm bipolar. I feel so much regret, sadness, anger, and depression. This did not have to happen. I have so many questions that will never be answered. Why- is the big one. Here we made beautiful memories on vacation and it ended with one horrible one. By the way my brothers name was Mike Smith. He is the only brother I had and I looked up to him in so many ways. He left behind a daughter and a fiance. I know it is going to take some time to get over but with your help you can ease some of the burden. The money will go towards expenses. Please if you can make a donation and give your votes so that we may win or a least get some financial assistance. We are a family of 6 on one income because I have 2 other disabled children. It's never a good time to bury someone and it's very hard. I'm sorry if I jumped around a bit it's hard writting about something so personal. This will be the only time I make this wish because it is still hard to deal with. Any donation amount or vote will be gladly accepted. Thank you in advance for your kindness and blessing.

Activities for my kids

Activities for my kids

Hi everyone!

This is asking for help in getting my 2 children into extracurricular activities.

I have a 9 year old son who has been wanting to take Karate for the longest time. He is a timid child and his dad & I believe that this will give him more self confidence and also be fun for him.

We also have a 6 year old daughter who really wants to take dance lessons. She is a very energetic little girl and is always dancing happily around the house.

Both children do very well in school, and deserve to be in these activities more than anything. Unfortunately, we live on a very limited income and after paying the bills, buying food, and clothing for them, we don't have anything extra for them to be able to do these things.

The money we are asking for will pay for their classes for a few months, and also buy the appropriate uniforms that they will need. Thanks so much for any help that you can give us!
