I'm asking for all the angels on earth to help me and my daughters be able to survive this economic increase in the way the world is falling apart. Right now , I am struggling and I have two teenage daughters , Grace Burkhardt and Makayla Burkhardt and myself , we live in a three bedroom house , and i'm having troubles being able to survive. I go to church and I'm a very religious guy and I go to church twice a week.On Wednesdays, I have a Bible class that I teach young children, the word of the Lord and on Sundays.I go to the adult learning session for normal church. I know that everyone has their own page.I am a christian , and I believe in god and miracles can happen and believe in your faith is a strong belief that eventually can cause a difference in the world in miracles to happen. So my story starts off with I was a burn victim back in 2023, and from my waist up, I had caught on fire by gasoline, and I had to crawl on my stomach, 2 acres of a yard to get back app to the house and the guy that I lived with was on parole and told the girl that I was dating not to call the police or the paramedics that I would be okay and I tried to go to work because I thought the paramedics were not coming the girl that I was dating, put me in a bath and my heart stopped and I died and right then the police showed up and had to incubate me and bring me back to life. So that's when The issues originally started, which are by the pictures that I have in my story.You can see I've been through 5 surgeries.And not only that , I had to have cadavers skin which consists of people that passed away, which is dead people's skin cells and cadaver bodies that they make in the skin to cover up severe injuries to protect them while they are healing. So after that, I had to have it removed, and it started smelling like roadkill in my left arm, so I have been going through a lot, even when I was in bandages, I would walk through the store and people were laughing at me. So trying to find a job. It's been hard because a lot of companies see my scars and think that I cannot keep up with a normal person and do the jobs that I need to Which, because of my injury? I work a 1000 times harder than anybody else, and I work harder than anybody else, and I can do anything. It's just that they discriminate against me because of my scars, but I can do anything, and that's the problem. So the place where I am working is arby's which is a fast food restaurant, and I have 2 teenage daughters. I make $12 an hour, and they are only allowing me to work. 20.\n Hours a week and I'm making not enough money, but the job I had before this. And when I got my house, I was making $22 an hour. So that's what my income was based off of so dropping down $10 an hour really hurt me because of my injury, and I have been trying to do everything I can, but I'm having issues my whole family has died off. I lost the Sun in 2006, my wife died at 34 years old in 2000 2010 months later, my mom died of stage 4 cancer in 2021. 7 months on chapter, my mother, which is her father died. I just lost my aunts October 8th 2025, and my grandmother passed away, January 1st 2026I have nobody here and nobody lives by me to help me the only person I have is my father and he has my blindness and COPD and is 24° below 0, he cannot go out in the cold, I have nobody and I have been walking in 24° below 0 with a bodysuit on to get back-and-forth to work it. Takes me 2 and a 1/2 hours to walk to work in 2 and a 1/2 hours to walk home. It's literally killing me.I want to the doctor not that long ago.And I have pneumonia , but the problem is , I have to keep going , even if it kills me , because I have two daughters to take care of and I have bills and the people that collect money for the bills don't care even if I pass away. My father was driving me, but was his night blindness. About 2 weeks ago, he had got into a car accident. And then after he dropped me off, he could not see and he destroyed our vehicle, which was my vehicle, he was driving, so I have no way of getting back-and-forth. And that's why I was walking and I have been going to church and I have probably prayed Uber a 1000 × 4A miracle to happen and a voice in my head told me that there are miracles that can happen and there is a website that would allow me to get help from people that understand and Rel.\n Ay to problems and are willing to reach out to people and pass on miracles and help people out. And then I ask people about what that could be. And they told me about this website so I decided even though I was in tears and felt like a failure that I've earned my money since I was 11 years old throwing hay bales and I've always earned everything I got, but this time, I need to reach out to all the angels on earth and ask for a prayer and a miracle because honestly, I need a new vehicle to be able to get back-and-forth to work or this walking is gonna kill me and my daughters are not gonna have a father. I looked around for homeless shelters because my rent is 1350A month. And with my bills, it comes out to 1872, each month. And right now, I have $684 saved up. So I am literally almost $1200 behind just all my bills, and I need enough money to get a car, so I can get a better job and stop being such a failure to my daughters. So I'm reaching out to people on this website, I don't care if you donate $1 to me or a $1000. I just need people to help me out and all the angels on earth, because I know that God had put angels on this Earth to cause miracles and there are individuals that are willing to help people out there and make sure that they believe that everyone deserves a chance and that if they just keep their faith, everything will be okay. And this is my way of reaching out as I'm typing this message and sending this message. I am literally in tears because I have always earned everything. I got, and I don't want my daughters to feel like I haven't done what I could for them, and I feel like my daughters. Are not gonna be okay if I don't get any help. I'm scared to that that we're gonna be homeless. And even if I die in this weather, I can't have 2 daughters that are teenagers that haven't even lived a life homeless in negative, 24° weather, it will kill them so I'm reaching out to everybody on this website. The whole entire country, all the angels on earth that God has put on this Earth to reach out of hand and put a hand on people's shoulder and tell them it's gonna be okay. Would I basically need is the rest of the money to be able to afford my rent?That will at least give me a little bit of time to come up with a plan and just enough money to buy a vehicle which is anywhere from a 1000 of pitching 100.I don't need anything pancy, just something to get back and forth from A to B so I know I will never miss work because walking back-and-forth. If I'm in you sicker, I've already missed a couple of days because I've passed out in the middle of walking and almost got hit by a truck passed out on the side of the highway, and then ambulance had to come and I spent 2 days in the hospital trying to walk. That's how I found I had pneumonia, and I don't know how much longer I can make it, but I have to keep trying. So I really need to be able to get a vehicle just enough money to buy one outright I don't want payments, because that's more money and enough. Money, which would be 1200 to cover my rent. Well, it's like $1284. And then like, say, 1500 for my car, so all together, about $2800 and that would cover my rent for the month. Because I only have till the sixth to come up with the $1284 or according to my contract. If I'm late one month, my landlord can throw me out and as it's looking, I'm not gonna make it because I don't make that much money with only 12. Dollars an hour and I'm only working 20 hours a week and I got like 2 weeks before my rent is due. And I make $214 every 2 weeks, so literally, I will only make another 214 that would only give me about 900 and something $, which means I would still be almost a $1000 short on my rent, not including a vehicle. Because I need a vehicle, I need to get a better job to make better money and if I get a better job to make better money and I get my ramp, that will give me a month to come up with something and At least I gives me a chance , because right now as as it's looking me and my daughters are not going to be able to make it and I'm going to be homeless and negative -24 degrees weather and everybody knows what would happen if a person was out in that cold weather with two teenage daughters when a person is not even supposed to be out in the cold for more than 10 minutes and this type of weather or they can get frostbite and pneumonia it would literally kill us so I'm reaching out to the entire world in the country and all the Angels here on Earth please help me out and anything will help even a dollar or more as one person donates others will follow and all I need is the amount of money I need which would be around $2,800 to completely pay off my rent and my bills and also get a car to get back and forth so I can keep my daughter in a home if I was to make 10 grand I'm the type of person I'm a very religious man all I want is what I need to survive and then I will pay it forward I believe good comes with good and once I make what I need if I give the money to someone else in need and once they reach their goal that will give it to somebody else it's that term paying everything forward if you do something good for someone you tell them to pay it forward and then they pay it forward and people start believing more in faith and miracles and it shows that there is still good on Earth and people will help each other because right now with the economic increase and the government going and doing what they're doing we have to stand by each other's sides and hold each other's hands and make sure that your neighbor and your friend is going to survive with you because everyone has families and we all need help at one point in time and I had to swallow my face and my pride and ask for help even though I'm crying why I do this which is embarrassing but my daughter right now is hugging me and holding me because she knows that this is killing me but I really need help and if we don't get no help we're going to lose everything and it's probably going to kill us because we will be homeless so please anyone out there in the world I'm begging you if I can get on my knees and beg you I'm asking for help please help me I told you the amount $1,000 to 1500 for a car so I can get a better job because I just got into an accident and my car is destroyed and I need a better job I'm working 20 hours an hour at a fast food restaurant because I have no car I have to walk back and forth Too Close job I walk two and a half hours there and two and a half hours home and negative 24° weather I'm barely making it I'm sicker and I got pneumonia right now I just got diagnosed from a doctor 2 days ago I passed out on the side of the highway and almost got hit by a truck walking to work they took me in an ambulance I spent two days in the hospital but honestly I'm off today and tomorrow and then I'm going to do it again I have to walk until I get some help to get a car so please somebody help me I'm begging you to help me and my daughters they're very special and they're everything to me but I need a friend and I need someone to guide me and help me please all the Angels answer my prayer God bless you God bless our flag and God bless our country

$1500 to raise

My name is David, and I am a father to two wonderful daughters, Makayla (15) and Grace (16). In 2023, I suffered a devastating accident that left 24% of my body burned, including my chest and left arm. I have undergone four surgeries, including skin grafts and reconstruction, and I am still dealing with severe nerve damage. Despite my best efforts, I have not been able to find work—employers see my injuries and view me as a liability, not an asset. This has been heartbreaking, as all I want is to provide for my girls and give them the life they deserve.

My situation has become even more desperate since my aunt, who was helping me pay the bills, passed away at the beginning of November. Now, I am facing shut-off notices for both power and water. My water has already been disconnected, and I am relying on a neighbor’s hose just to get by. My power is about to be shut off, and I am months behind on rent. My landlord has told me that if I can’t catch up by mid-December, my daughters and I will lose our home—right before Christmas. I have no family nearby, and the thought of my girls being homeless during the holidays is terrifying.

I am reaching out for help because I want to give Makayla and Grace a Christmas to remember, and I want to keep them safe and warm. Any support, no matter how small, will help us pay our bills, keep our home, and put gifts under the tree for my daughters. Thank you for reading our story and for any kindness you can share. Your help means more than words can say.
