How Does Aidpage Work

If you need help...

Sign up here on Aidpage - free, takes about 1 minute. Post a new message with pictures and information about your current situation and your needs - it's easy, technical skills are not required. Then, browse other people's aidpages. Use the comments section on their aidpages to send them messages. Some of them will respond to you. At the same time, other people will be visiting your aidpage and writing to you. Write back to them. Talk to each other. Make aidmates.

How can aidmates help each other...?

Aidpage doesn't tell you how to help each other... It's up to you to decide. Advice and good information are easy to share right here on Aidpage. But you can do whatever you find appropriate and necessary... in whatever way you can. Use the aid information and web links contributed by other aidmates. Add to these resources. Be a good aidmate.

If you want to help others...

Simply browse or search Aidpage and wherever interested, post comments or contact the people. They will respond to you. Make aidmates. Aidpage is free... no limit on how many pages you can post on your Aidpage blog or how many groups you can organize. Most importantly - you'll be on the web with a purpose!

The easiest way to help...

The more people know about Aidpage, the better for all aidmates. Tell your friends, relatives, and colleagues about Aidpage.

Need to know more?

Here are a few links to the aidpages of veteran Aidmates:

 in response to 8867...   

check with NACA on the foreclosure - you might also want to read this article on forclosures

I would check with an attorney about the defaulted contract and the concentrator... most attorneys offer free consultations and can advise you better than I.

Check with local organizations - through 211 - for assistance on your utilities

As for the medical bills - I am guessing you don't have insurance (?) If that is the case, talk to the billing department with the hospital - sometimes they can make arrangements to make payments that you can afford, or they may be able to give you a discount, or write it off altogether- depending on your circumstances. 

There is also some help for medical copay assistance

I have additional organizations listed on my homepage that may be of assistance. I wish you the best.

 in response to single dad…always stand strong...   Very soon it will be three years since you wrote about your need to get some dental work.  Did you get anything since then?  Do you need help with anything else?  Log in to Aidpage if you need some assistance. I just went to this website after reading about it on a blog.

Sir,

I am an Ex Army man from India. Due to constant medical treatment of my wife for epilepsy and diabetic I could not save any thing. Ambition of my wife is to do my last rites in the own house. In the anxiety of a house I have joined and arranged down line members in the National Federation of Blind and Manav Foundation said to be working for the betterment of the backward community, with a high hope of getting incentive while serving to the needy people, but they have deceived us making loss of my entire pension benefits besides rana into debit of more than 8.5 lacs. My pension is not sufficient to apy interest on the loan amount. I earnestly appeal to the enthusiastic benevolent philanthropcic elite to generously help to come out the tragedy. A line aof reply is solicited.

Thanking,

Sincerely,

K Rajamanickam

While prayer is helpful, what most people need is financial help. While the majority of us here are unable to give financially, we can give spiritually and through information/experience. And sometimes we can lend an ear. However, I don't believe I have ever seen couples meet as a result of aidpage -that is what informal dating is for.

In comparison to myspace and facebook? There is none. I have accounts on both and once the novelty wore off, I found them both to be a huge waste of time.I have better things to do than build a virtual farm....

 in response to starbug5051...   I messed up and got myself homeless a couple of times. and I have seen the salvation army feed the people that could pay the $10.00 a night to stay a hot meal and then after they feed the paying people they have another feeding for the ones that have no money they take all the hot food off the warmer through out some stale donuts and even go so far as to pick up the salt and pepper shakers off the table so if you can not pay you can not have salt. when they give you clothes they give socks a shirt pants and if you go threw a long hard special prosses they will off shoes and a coat. I have seen this not onece but all over the usa as a ministry now i have asked for help with coats for the homeless from the salvaton army and the goodwill for a discount and was told NO THA I HAD TO PAY FULL PRICE so i just went to walmart and bought them new out of my pocket, I could never be so crule to anyone I just could not do it, Plus they through you out in weather in the single digits and the polics have to make them let people stay in out of the weather all this is true , it breaks my heart to see the things they can and will do to the helpless. remember Jesus said that it could be him at your door asking for help if it is I must pray for these people because they are in serious trouble.  God Bless The Needy I Wish I Could Help Them All.

What is the real purpose of Aidpages, What I read here on Aidpage it just seems it is like a website like myspace,Facebook just to meet people. There are many needs here....My personal opinion Aidpages my understanding what I read don't help the people, it is up to all who joins to help each other. It is sad of many I read here that so many are in desperate need of help. Personally my opinion Aidpage sounds like is people meeting people. What many people here needs is prayer. May God Bless you all!

I know mom use to say Goodwill did that sale things people dontated for profit and I wonder about the others doing the same. People do get help from here sometimes the places you can apply to help out. Other times you might not qualify...It all depends..

Hang around and see for yourself if people get help and check out my blog for information as I just got up and looking for work plus don't know your situation...

Suggestions are needed on individual situations, not general practices. I haven't received one comment, seems a waste of time, when time is running out.

Hi I am about to graduate from college. I am getting my Bachalors Degree in Criminal Justice. I have realy think hard of what I want to do. What I want to do is to open up a place for battered women and children. I was onced in this position and there was only one place to go in the town I lived and when it gets full they won;t take anymore. And now I live in another smaller town and they don't have one and where I live there is lots of land and I want to buy some of it to put small trailers on it so they will have there own little space and a place to get a fresh start.This will be only a temporary place until they can get a place of there own.

I can't believe I'm doing this, I've always been the one to help people...My husband and I owe 3 utility bills that the bank returned the checks on and a phone bill to be turned off tomorrow. Without electricity we can't open our business to make the money to pay them. I prayed and cried and we don't know what to do. We can't get an extension on the utilities until we bring the bounced balance current. Christmas....I can't even wrap my head around that and we have an 8 year old.

I am a single Mom with a 6 year old little girl who needs help with Christmas. My husband ran out on us a few months ago. I have medical problems (cancer) and that is why he left. I cannot work until I get through it. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. My little girl is so special. She tells me everything will be alright and never worries about herself. She never misses school and never asks for anything. She cares about others and her pets but never thinks of herself. I just need to make sure she has a Christmas because she is always worrying about me. I am so proud of her. Thank you in advance for your time.

First of all don't blame yourself for the situation it is what it is instead take the time you spend blaming your self and turn it into how can I improve myself. Then the 2 of you close your eyes together and find the place you want to be. Then be there for a time and then tell yourself this is it we need to be there and nothing can stop you. I should be doing that myself and often find myself there I will hopefully get there one day but your young I wish I did this sooner in life but it your chance to do it now. Use the youth that you have to get what need and want not for yourselves but for your children and there future.

Well it seems that you should be able to get a small business grant from the government as well as a hardship loan. I can't tell from your letter what type business your son may have had but is the child mother close to you. I don't know if he had life insurance that might help but you really need to look into a grant I have been. I see a great many places offering grant on this website ask your attorney about getting involved if possible. I don't know if you will be able to adopt your granddaughter but if you do buy your son's business it will make it difficult to care for the business. But I am sure if you think it through you will make the right decision. Work on holding on to your grand daughter and getting the papers you need for the grant you are going to be between a rock and a hard place but you must succeed. I have tried myself with little luck hopefully you'll do much better then I have good and don't give up.

I miss him so much his daughter is 3 years old and I have only been allowed to see her three times since his death now his business is in trust and might be  closing it is in a trust and I would love to buy it but of course I have no money away I have paid out all my saving to attorneys to get to be able to see my granddaughter

  I would like someone to help me with a loan I am willing to give a profit share check, have them as a silent partner or give more then loan amount if they would sign a letter stating they would let me buy the business on a land contract.

I do not want money for free just help me hold on to the business my son loved so very much and he wanted for his hildren I need this to feel close to him and if I can make it grow I am doing what he wanted

Comment to bigdkeef's comment---Are you registered to vote, did you vote in the last election. Have you written to your congressman or state representative or senator. Have you attended any political meetings of any kind and let your opinion known? If you have done any of these you have a right to complain, if you haven't you have not done anything to better your lot. If your waiting for the government to hand you over a check or find you a home you will be waiting a long time. Your negativity goes far beyond hatred for the Government, it sounds like it permeates everything around you. Maybe trying a change of attitude might help you get what you need. It is so easy to blame the Government or family or someone other than ourselves for our plight in life. A great many of our problems stem from choices we have made in our lives and as long as you choose to stay negative and blame others for your life not being what you want it to be you will never find a better life. I wish you all the luck in the world my friend and I am very sorry you are so unhappy with yourself and those around you. I will give you kudos for coming to aidpage to vent your opinion, it is a good place to do that, it is also a good country we live in that allows you to speak your mind. sheshe030

What are you crazy.? or was you born yesterday.? the gov. don't give a rats ass for any one that can't give them money. Meaning NO HELP FOR THE JOBLESS.(If you don't work you don't pay taxes) Hence no help for those who are going to help the JOBLESS., I love my country I DON'T trust the government., they are going to screw who they can when they can. Us little guys we have no voice they will screw us and won't think twice., I've been all over the gov. NO ONE wants to deal with this., "what do you mean fix this problem?? We have  a stimulous"  YEAH stroke this, again it's not going to get any further than those who are going to get 15.00 more in there checks., Shit 2 months and there will be only going to 8 people getting checks., Any way I appreciate your nieve thoughts and the some what concern., But I think you ahve been getting to many ads. about getting gov. grants

Contat your local Vocational Rehabilitaion office. They help people with disabilities to go back to work or set up their own bussinesses. In my state they are associated with the Department of Labor. They can help you get started.

Hi, everyone, and God Bless You all!

I'm a 41-year-old single mother of 4 kids (only 2 of them now live with me, however), and am having it HARD right now.  I lost my job in October and have applied EVERYWHERE since November, to no avail.  I sell home decorating products on the side for 'Home & Garden Pary, Inc.', and have been barely eeking by from the little income that brings. I also have borrowed money from my parents a few times for big bills that I had, but I just can't keep borrowing from them.

I had HUD (assisted housing) for the home I've lived in for the past 5 years, but the landlord didn't get the necessary repairs done in time, so now, I have to pay $300.00 a month for rent, UNLESS someone buys this house before the end of February.  HUD will then pick back up for me, and they pay $382 per month. (HUD just won't pay my rent to my current landlord anymore because she was late on getting the repairs done, although they will pay if someone else buys the house.)

 Anyway, I'm still searching for a job, but I need fast cash right now, as my $300 rent payment is past due for this month, and I also have lots of other bills piling up.  I'm usually good with money, but when there's none coming in, it's so easy to get behind on everything.  I just got notice today that I had 3 bad checks come back and the owner of the store they were written to has turned them into the Magistrate's Office, so now, if I don't come up with about $400 (the checks themselves were only totalling about $250, but the court costs bounced it up to $400) by Feb. 2, 2009, I will have a warrant issued for my arrest........this has NEVER happened to me before, and I'm so depressed over it.  I don't want to tell my kids, but I don't know where to go or what to do for help.  We are so broke, we don't have money for some of the essentials, let alone any 'extras'. 

I guess what I'm asking is for some Angel to help me, if at all possible.......I need cash for my bad checks and for bills, but I also need someone to buy this house by the end of February so I can still live here, too.  Otherwise, my HUD runs out at the end of Feb., and I will be paying $300 per month forever.  All this happened about the same time, which only compounded my depression and heartache.  I have tried to overcome all these obstacles and nothing seems to be working.

If there is ANYONE out there who can help me in any way, please write to me at:  Pisces34@aol.com.  I thank you tremendously in advance.

Hi Cheryl.  Sorry to hear your story.  What kind of work do you do?  Is it something that can be done from home?  is there anyone else who can help care for your husband?  Is he entitled to any kind of disability?  There is plenty of info on this site about working from home or starting a home-based business.  Here's a site with a list of resources for stroke victims, hope it helps!  Best wishes, Rosie

Hello to anyone who took the time to read this,

My name is Joshua. I'm a 27-year-old, college graduate male living in Hanover, NH. I work as a freelance writer for the Valley News and a florist for the Price Chopper because that's all I can seem to get right now. I make about $800 dollars a month. I used to make $1600 a month as a Sportswriter but my newspaper downsized.

I suffered a serious viral pnemonia a year ago which tapped all my savings paying for hospital bills and now have bills that I can't seem to get out from under. I have only $400 dollars remaining in medical bills left and one student loan of $1457.00 left. But I am struggling and can't seem to get rid of these bills. Combine these with two phone bills (one is $178 and one is $447) and what is only about $2500 dollars in debt feels incredibly overwhelming.

I have since lost my health insurance and am driving without car insurance, luckily I'm in New Hampshire and am living with my parents so I stretch the $800 the best I can. But I'm failing.  Between my car payment ($227 per month on $8000), my phone payment ($100 per month) and my credit card payment for groceries, gasoline and any incidental/entertainment expenses I have (around $300 per month). I can barely make the payments I have as it is.

I am trying, very hard, to get another job or two. I'm hoping to get a newspaper delivery position which could pay $350 dollars a week. I'm also studying very hard for the LSAT's so that I can go to law school  (divorce lawyer is the hope). I am afraid I might have to quit my jobs in order to study but if I get the newspaper delivery job maybe I can make ends meet that way.

I am a 100% legitimate person and I have never done this before. You won't see me on a thousand sites. I don't have any kids or a wife and, in general, I have my life in order. I have good parents and am not an alcholic or a drug addict or sex fiend or something weird that would appear on Jerry Springer. I am just a normal guy trying my best to make it in this world.

If you were to help me, you would be helping a real, actual person succceed in life and I would eventually pay you back completely. I know this is a shot in the dark and I understand this is probably not going to happen, but if there's someone out there giving enough, please contact me at JMBoraz@hotmail.com.

Thank you,

Joshua

I am a 39 yrs old woman of two children who was recently divorced on Oct. 29th 2008.  I was married for 18 yrs to my high school sweet heart.  At the end of June he closed out joint checking account without my knowledge after I had just paid the bills and it has caused me a set back and I have not been able to get back on track after paying the bank and company fees.  My house is in default foreclosure, I applied for a hardship modification to lower my interest rate and apply the balance due to the end of the Loan, well to my suprise I did not qualify due to my income exceeding the amount of approval.  I asked what does my income have to do with my needs right now, they gave me this nonsense story, so all those TV Ads and mailing letters stating how they can help you, is a joke.  This is my last option to reach out for help, I know their our good people out there so if you would like to help me and my children, you may send donations straight to the Mortgage Co. at PO Box 2167 Jacksonville, FL 32232 Loan No. 9000603927 arrears amount $8361 or 5808 SE 10th St Midwest City, OK 73110.  If you need further information you may call 405-202-3759.  Thanks for all your support and God Bless!

Good Morning Sandra Jean!  I am not able to financially assist you, but upon reading your post, I feel compelled to pray for your success.  I too am quite spiritual and believe that if you BELIEVE it, you can ACHEIVE it!  Are you able to contact local agencies for assistance at all?  There are many programs that exist, perhaps you can call your local hospital and ask for the Social Worker.  That person should be able to direct you into a positive direction which will prayerfully lead you to getting help.  There are programs like CIDA that help with heating and light bills.  I ask God to continue giving you the tenacity and vigor to get up every day and start your day in the midst of the current trials and tribulations that you face.  I believe that you will stand TALL very soon!

Blessings to you,

I'm not sure if I will here back from anyone or not, but I thought I would try.  I am not trying to scam anyone or anything.  I am hoping to re-enter college in January and continue working on my degree. I can get financial aid for school, but I have an old balance at the school that I have to pay before I can re-enroll.  The reason I didn't finish the previous semester is because my mother was ill and on life-support and I missed too many classes so I withdrew, but it was too late to get any refund on the semester so I still owe for the classes.

The Balance I owe is just under $500.  I have no way of coming up with this money.  We are struggling to make ends meet as it is, just as I know many people are. If anyone can help out with this it would be greatly appreciated.  I am not asking to receive any money directly.  I can give you the name and phone number to my school where the payment can be made directly.  If anyone can help I would truly appreciate it.

Thank you and God Bless.

What do you do when you have no where to turn and no one to help? I am 24, my fiance and I have 2 wonderful babies. They are 1 and 2. These kids are our LIFE. We will do anything in the world for them. My fiance and I work 40 hours a week. He works days, and I work nights. We usually make ends meet, but lately 80 hours a week between us is just not enough. We are young and just trying sooo hard to make it. We have a lot of bills, and as the kids grow, so do our bills. Is anyone else in this situation? I just want to live the American dream and MAKE IT! I just don't understand what we are doing wrong and WHY we are always behind! We are Christians, we LOVE our family, and I am just sooo tired of sitting up and night worrying about our bills, and whether or not we r gonna have enough money to get us through til payday. I am sooo stressed and dissappointed in myself. I am young and work my tail off, it just seems like we should be ok. But we r not, we are digging ourselves a hole and just can't get out. My family and I are usually the ones giving, and I feel bad that I can't do that anymore....

Hi! My name is Antoinette. I want you to know that God will help you. I also want you to know that God will answer your prayers. you must have faith, hope,expect God to do this for you and not doubt,waver,or fear. Do you pray his word back to him. Just read his word back to him and believe that He will do it. From 3/08 until 8/08. I have not had a job and all my bills have been paid for. I was having my baby in June I didn;t have anyway of paying for bills. My lights,phone and I always had food.What ever you need look for it in His word and find what you need.Mark 11:23,24,25;Phil 4:19. If you believe and remind God of his promise he have to bring them to pass. Let me tell you I am a full time student and a single parent. I don't work and God has bless me to bay my bills.It works! I would put my life on it. That how Great God is about bring His word to life in your life. Just Believe God Bless

Ok, I am new to this website. It is no secret that the economy stinks.I am looking for a financial grant that will help my family to get back on our feet. My husband was in the car business but that has bottomed out.Thus, my husband works part time and receives a navy pension. Because of this, we are in chap 13 as I work- in substance abuse, we are skimming  by but have to catch up on the electric bill, the phone bill and look for housing closer to my work. I am looking for a free grant that will help us to get back on track by catching up up on our bills. I have lost everything in the past 2 years(including my mother), I have a daughter who has been disabled yet I never lose hope.

I have searched the web for free grants but you always have to buy books and software that do not gaurantee  results.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions. sharon

Hello;

 

I am a 53 year old wheelchair bound disabled vet. My wife and I have raised our four children and are now  raising three grandchildren. My wife just underwent major surgery for a complete artery replacement as a result of PAD. I am homebound because we do not have a wheelchair van. WE live on a very fixed income form my VA pension. Are there any programs that donate wheelchair vans to disabled vets?

prayful....

When people first come on this site, it is out of sheer desperation.  The economy is such that everyone is feeling the crunch of having no money.  Then you will have the ones like the country club due one, that is nothing more than leaving a comment to stir up emotions.

People when in desperate mode need and want help, advice, and a friend to talk to.

If I were you, I would start by being a friend.  You seem to have compassion, otherwise you would have not ended up here.

Advise comes with understanding.  Understanding of situations, understanding the needs, understanding how when faced with an emergency, how to offer a possible solution.  There are so many people hurting.... emotionally and physically.  Offer them a safe haven in knowing that God is alive, and he will protect and take care of his children.

Give encouragment when needed, show love and compassion for those who feel no one cares, give advice and resources for those to find help.......

But mostly, speak from your heart, your love and faith will shine through and give you words when needed to help.

reply to prayerful--The guy that asked for help with his country club dues was just a person that thought he would have laugh and post a rediculous request. You will see quite a few odd ball posts here on aidpage. You stated you don't even know where to start with giving advise. The best advice anyone can give is the advice from their heart. Give advice from your own life and experiences and from your family and friends. Tell of places you or friends have gone and applied for help and maybe what the requirements were. Sometimes just some words from the heart to someone that is hurting or scared is all that is needed. Don't ever think you don't have any advice to share. Your whole lifes experiences is loaded with advice. I wish you the very best.  sincerely sheshe030
