Debt Scholarship Application

This is so great! Thank for taking time to post this and create the survey. I know it’s a long shot, but every chance to find a way out of debt helps keep the hope alive.

Thank you for this opportunity! I hope to be going even faster down the road to financial freedom, so I can live like no other, and enjoy life with my 2 kids and husband.

This is an absolutely wonderful opportunity for people in difficult situations that are ready to make a change. Thank you so much to the sponsors that have made this possible and may God be with all of you that are starting this wonderful journey to financial freedom.

Thanks for the opportunity to get ahead of my financial situation and prepare a better future for my daughter and myself.

I am very grateful for this resource that you are providing for the community. Thank you!

I’m excited and hopeful to have a chance to free my family and myself from the chains of debt and finally getting some sleep!

Thank you so much for this opportunity! I’m excited to continue the journey and get my family out of debt. Less debt = less stress = happier life!

I probably am not who this committee is looking for, but there is no safety net for people like me who are unable to work due to illness, and have years to wait before being able to prove my case to Social Security for disability help. I have been scrounging to keep up with medication to stay alive by selling my belongings, furniture and jewelry that I love. I am doing everything I can to try to keep up with payments, but creditors do not care that I have no income and no money. They just keep hounding me to pay large monthly payments. I can’t get a loan to consolidate my debts that I ran up while seeking medical diagnosis, I can’t seem to get a buyer for my house or car. I would be homeless if I weren’t living in my parents’ basement. So I’m not the kind of candidate you’re looking for since I have no income, but I have to try anyway because nobody will help me. There is no government safety net unless you can afford to wait 3 years without income. I went from being an independent single woman, a teacher, a homeowner, and now spend my days in pain, napping because of fatigue and reading email. Praying not to succumb to illness, trying not to stress every time a bill collector sends a threatening letter. This is not a country that helps the sick or poor. If you get ill and can’t work, you should come up with a death plan, because you have a strong chance of dying while waiting for poverty-level assistance to become available.

Thank you for this opportunity!

Thank you all so much for this. It wasn’t hard to spill my guts, I talk too much sometimes. LOL But this is the right thing to talk about especially now. Ready to blast our debt into outer space.
