Thank you for your interest in my story.

My name is Tia and I found myself in a contract with a business that was willing to be as patient for the agreed cost of my car as they could be. I have finished my contract but still owe so much. When I first got the car I did a budget plan and spent many months planning for the expense but shortly after getting the car I lost my job and later found out that I was pregnant with twin babies making life even more challenging. I called the company and made payment arrangements with them and have been making those minimal payments but now they are requesting the full contractual monthly payment of $448.11. I work part time as a nail technician so I can get my kids to school and pick them up from their bus stop since they are too young to be home alone. This leaves me with a small window to service clients and more challenging to pay for the insurance and car bills before including the other bills.

I have been doing my best to pay my bills fully and on time. I keep my expenses low by limiting my spending to what is strictly necessary like food, hygiene products, and my Children’s needs. I could use a new wardrobe but my outward appearance isn’t so important. Paying off my car without having to get a personal loan - which will add other financing charges and put me in a worst situation - is my current goal. I struggle to reach out to the community for help when it comes to what I need and am always extending myself to help others. If I could get 1,670 people to donate $5 I can reach my goal to have my car paid off. Remember, they want $448.11 monthly and fuss about the $120 I pay biweekly not being enough. I’m just hoping that after hearing a bit of my story you would be willing to help. I will pay it forward and always return kindness and charity given to me. I thank you for your help and pray for you even if the only help you can offer is just spreading the word in hopes to reach someone who is in a position to help me.

Thank you so much!
