For your consideration, my plea for help. We all have a story and you will undoubtedly want to hear mine before exercising judgment of a worthwhile cause. I have provided the essentials of the experience that has lead me here today and excised all drama. Only the facts are laid before you:

Experienced 4th quarter layoff 2006 from large international RE developer in Florida; found employment only to find employer was operating illegally in Florida and shut down by State a few weeks ago; company accounts seized including no paychecks for three week’s work. Now, secured a great position with a great company only to find myself penniless. I begin my new job soon and need a hand up to help put back on track to success.

Our charitable agencies in this area are overwhelmed and lacking in funds and resources to help due to area being hard hit by market conditions and large influx of new community members.

Gas, groceries, power, car payment, rent, water, toiletries, daily essentials needed until I get a few paychecks then I can start repaying the generosity. $3,500. Repay at $300 per month until paid in full. I wish I had something or anything of value I could offer as collateral, but unfortunately, I do not. My word, my honor to repay is all I can offer.

If you have the means and opportunity to spread your angel wings to consider a hand up to someone like me, please respond in like.

With grace and gratitude, thank you.
