Dear aidpage,
My name is Briana Wilkes, and I am an 11th-grade student at GlenOak High School in Canton.

I am hoping to participate as a member of the People to People Student Ambassador Program to New Zealand and Australia this summer. The program promotes international understanding
while building leadership skills among America’s youth. The 17-day experience includes meetings
with government officials, interaction with other students my age, educational activities, and
home stays with host families.

People to People Student Ambassadors are carefully interviewed and evaluated before their
acceptance, and I am honored to have been selected. Personally, I am looking forward to
broadening my perspectives of the world and gaining a better understanding of the South Pacific. My grandfather visited Australia while in the Vietnam War and has told me many great stories of the land. Also, one of my close friends traveled to Europe last summer with People To People and said it was a life changing experience. Upon my return, I plan to share my experience with schools and civic clubs in our community. As an Ambassador, I can also earn high school and college credit because of the many educational elements in my program.

I am currently seeking financial sponsors to help me with tuition, and hope I can count on your
support. In case you haven’t heard of People to People, please allow me to share some history with
you. President Dwight D. Eisenhower founded the organization in 1956. He believed that if people
from different cultures could come together in peace and friendship, so eventually would countries.
Since its founding, People to People has launched many international programs, including Sister
Cities and Project HOPE.

The program tuition is $6,999, which includes all transportation, accommodations, meals, and
educational activities Is it possible for you to assist me by making a contribution? Any amount would be appreciated.

I plan to give a speech and share my journal, photographs, and experiences with contributors upon
my return, if they wish me to do so.
My program tuition is due 5/01/2011. Your generous contribution would enable me to share in this wonderful opportunity. Thank you in advance for yourconsideration and support.

Sincerely yours,
Briana Wilkes
Student Ambassador

HELP!!!

Hi,

I firstly want to thank the lovely people on here who responded to my message before and who have been a huge help to me during my time of need.

Things are pretty dire for me right now: I have no money (in fact, minus money: I've just reached my overdraft limit) and I'm housebound due to agoraphobia and therefore unable to work. Plus I'm by myself, which makes the situation a lot harder.

Therefore, if anyone has any advice on (UK) benefits, crisis loans, claiming disability benefits, and any other solutions to my problems, please contact me. I can't get to the Citizen's Advice Bureau, obviously, and their website is no help at all, it just tells you to go the local office! So I'm hoping someone reading this knows the answers I need :)

I'd also like to add that if I can in any way offer support to anyone out there, by way of email exchanges, I will. I am a very good listener and well experienced in the field of counselling and advice. Please feel free to contact me if you feel you need a friendly chat about anything that's bothering you.

K

I am a father of four who lost my job in May 2009. We have not been able to keep up with our monthly bills and now my wife has been offered a great job oppertunity but in order to take the job we have to relocate. The relocation would put us into a position that our monthly expenses would be much less and better for our family. We are in need of the funds to move if there is anyone that can help we will pay back with interest.

To whom it may concern:
Hello my name is Amanda; I am 27 years old, from Montana, and I have horrible teeth (along with a HUGE amount of pain as of late) and dream, hope, wish for the day that will change. I am struggling with an inner demon, that is my extreme fear of dentists, and my huge need of A LOT of work, as a child my parents tried all they could to get me to go and due to my fear I just couldn't do it. (In the past 10 plus yeas the only work I have been able to have done was done under IV sedations.) Then at age eleven my mother past away leaving my father the burden of trying to do it all by himself and money wasn't in abundance to say the least. I am ashamed of myself and how bad it has gotten; I just don't have the extra resources to try to make something happen. I wish a lot of things were different now, but unfortunately they can't be changed, I only hope that I can find some sort of assistance or a cleaver solution to my problem. I have contacted several places but they all have a similar policy that makes it impossible for me to make anything happen, they all need cash or credit payment before services are rendered, and I am unable to do that due to some extenuating circumstances. I pray every day for some sort of a miracle; I dream of a beautiful smile; so that I will some day feel as beautiful as people tell me I am.
I am just writing in hopes that someone will have more information than I myself have been able to come up with, either about other payment options, or assistance/grant programs to assist with costs, or any other options or suggestions.
 I only wish to have a beautiful smile some day. So if you have any other information or can offer any assistance; PLEASE just let me know.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer!
Always Hoping,
Amanda

Time is running out for me

I am living in Shippensburg PA and am about to be homeless. I have applied for every job around and registered with every employment agency within 50 miles and no calls. I was able to get food stamps from the county but I haven't paid my car payment since January and I know its going to be repo'ed soon. I don't know what to do. I have put my resume on every website I can find and have even offered child care, elderly care, domestic care....

Please someone give me an idea

I have never been one for doom and gloom. Reality yes, doom and gloom no! My gas was turned off which the current finances are slim, etc. Are me and the kids cold at night or having to take a cold shower in 30 degree weather? Yes. We are not over spenders, as a matter of fact, as far as debt other than housing they are $2900. cc and a car note. One thing I can say is that my kids are being real troopers about all of it. Was there a Christmas tree or presents this year? No. Here again, my kids have been very positive through it all. You see, in the outward appearace it appears as though everything is more than alright. Unforeseen events have occured to bring us to this place but we are still pulling forth together, moving forward. What we have gained from this present situation is a deeper bond for each other as a family (Mom/Son/Daughter) that stick together. Even through the not so good, good can be gained.

I am a single mother of 3 who receives no child support.  I am working on getting the state to help with this.  I am employed but it is not enough.  I am behind on ALL of my bills and am in danger of losing my home. I have already lost my car.  Until I can get child support coming in, I am afraid I am going to lose everything and that is not fair to my children.  I hope you can find it in your heart to help me, it would be appreciated.  God Bless.

Any Help would be appreciated

Hello,

I am new to this and hope that I can find help.  I went through surgery on 10/19/07 to remove 2 fatty tumors in my groin.  I returned home and over the next few weeks developed severe pain in my groin and lower abdomen to the point I could not wear any clothing or have anything touching the area of the surgery.  I went back to the Dr. and had test after test and nothing could be found that would be causing the pain.  I started developing severe pain in my hands as well as lack of dexterity and ability to grasp objects.  I started having problems walking and standing and have recently been given a disabled status on my drivers license.  I went to a rheumatologist who found out that I have severe Fibromyalgia the criteria for diagnosis is 18 major trigger points she stopped counting at 25.  She also found that I had something called hyperesthesia a condition which the body recognizes any type of touch as pain.  They have also found that my pancreas is producing too much insulin and are debating whether to take it out.  I see a pain doctor who wants to install a spinal pump/stimulator to help with the pain.  I see a pain psychologist to help me deal with the depression this has all brought about.  I am now confined to my house I cant drive because of the pain meds not to mention the pain from grasping the steering wheel and pressing the pedals.  My wife does not understand this and wants a separation and this is where I need help.  My Job fired me because I could not return to work. I cannot work or make income and still waiting to see if I qualify for disability which can take another year.  I need help moving back to Virginia from Florida as well as the cost of housing in a handicap accessible apartment.  If anyone knows where I can go for this or is able to help please let me know.

Thank you and God Bless,

Tim

My wish is to get my Smile back

 

I haven't ever asked for help, but find myself in the need of some.  I have had cancer twice and am a Survivor. :)  I am done with my chemo now and trying to get me back.  I work fulltime and have during my cancer treatments, but due to the chemo, my teeth have become brittle and have cracked, so I have had many pulled and now I found out I need a root canal to top it off.  I live paycheck to paycheck and just making ends meet.  I have insurance but of course this doesn't cover any preconditions nor cosmetic.  My smile used to be my best quality and I use it often, but now finding myself hiding my missing teeth.  It makes me so angry that the dentists won't take payments nor help you in any way.  They are more concerned about a paycheck then people in need.  I saw so many of us single moms are needing help for just the basic needs .. a smile    I don't expect anything to come from this, but this allowed me to vent.  May everyones needs be met.. God Bless

Mother of 4 needs a little hope....

Hello.  Thank you for taking the time to read this.  I have had a terrible couple of months.  I am a single mother of four beautiful kids, under the age of 11.  I was diagnosed with cancer in 2003, during my last pregnancy.  I was able to have my son and he is healthy.  I had 7 surgeries in 12 months, with each time having to spend at least five days in the hospital.  We thought things were good, and now I have become ill again.  I have been to the hospital twice in a week, and that is after seeing a docotor every other day.  My children are all so strong.  It breaks my heart that they have to see me hardly able to walk because of the pain.  I am trying to work full time, and I was just accepted to the RN program, with advanced placement, at Boise State University. I could graduate next year.  I was so excited, thinking that I could make our lives so much easier.  I have recently become behind in all of my bills.  My power was turned off last week, and I had to scrape every penny to get it back on.  I just got a final disconnect notice from the water company.  My car has died, in the middle of the road, three times in the last month.  I certainly cannot afford the price of taking the car to the shop.  My rent was due on October 15, and I have been making small payments to them.  I go in tomorrow to see what the last MRI showed.  Then, to top it all off, my hours at work dropped too low, due to school and being ill, so they dropped my medical insurance.
