Getting through the divorce.
Donation protected
Thank you for taking the time to stop by and at least see what I have to say. The sentiment means a lot to me.
I need to beg, and I’m sorry
I have been providing what I find to be quality content to a following on Facebook, and Twitter for over 6 years now, and have been blogging off and on during that time. In that time, I have never asked for a donation, I have never done reviews for affiliate marketing, or even so much as displayed an ad.
Unfortunately, now I need to beg, and I feel bad about that but I’m out of options.
How did you get here?
I am currently going through a divorce which has left me several months behind on my bills, still having 3 kids to care for and half the income. Very soon, my house will be dark and cold, and I’m certain I will be evicted shortly afterward if I don’t find a way to raise some money. I am already working 2 jobs, but the lack of daycare and the outrageous cost (~150/day) of the daycare in my area makes it difficult to take on any more.
Where will the money go?
As it stands right now, between heating oil, wood (for the wood furnace), electric, rent, internet connection, and my phone, I am about $4500 behind, most services are 3 months behind and are going to be disconnected by the middle of the month. I am also left without a vehicle, and I live in a very rural area. I am a 45-minute drive from work, and an hour drive to the nearest grocery store, again, with 3 kids (aged 13, 8, and 1) in the house.
If, by the grace of God, I manage to somehow raise more than I need I will find something to do with the money, and you guys will help. Maybe it will be donated to one or more of the foundations that we can collectively agree is deserving. Maybe it will go back into Hackr so that I can do something that you guys need. I don’t know where the extra money will go, but I won’t be buying scotch, take-out, Starbucks, or anything I don’t need with it, you can be sure of that.
