Financial Hardship

As a retiree living on a fixed income, I’m asking for a helping hand to overcome more than $5,000 in credit card debt that continues to grow despite my monthly payments, rising interest, and the increasing cost of living

The story

I am reaching out with hope and humility to ask for financial assistance with my credit card debt. I am living on a fixed income, and despite making consistent payments, I find myself struggling to make meaningful progress toward paying down my balances. My monthly minimum payments seem to cover mostly interest, leaving the actual debt barely reduced. With the rising cost of living and inflation, everyday expenses continue to increase, making it even harder to get ahead financially. I work hard to manage my responsibilities, but I have reached a point where I could truly use some help. My goal is to eliminate more than $5,000 in credit card debt and finally have some financial breathing room. This assistance would relieve a tremendous amount of stress and allow me to put more of my limited income toward everyday necessities instead of continually struggling with credit card payments. I understand that everyone has their own financial responsibilities, and I do not take anyone’s generosity for granted. Whether someone can contribute a little or a lot, every contribution would make a difference. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Your kindness, generosity, and willingness to help would mean more than words can express.

  • Living on a fixed income while interest eats most of each payment is a slow kind of exhausting, and you kept paying anyway. Praying the balance finally falls and the stress lifts.
