Somebody please help!!!! I am a Wisconsinite whom has been given a gov’t loan to attend A GOVERNMENT approved pharmacy school in Australia. After graduating, and returning to the US to be with family the National Pharmacy Board will not let me practice in the USA. I owe the US over $90,000.00 for a degree in which I am unable 2 use here, despite the US funding it. I have met the requirements to practice in the US, but the National Board of Pharmacy is a non-gov’t agency, very successfully keeping me out of the business. Where can I go for help? If you know please let me know, I have been working on this for over 1 yr.
Jenn there is no place that I have heard of that is a walk in grants giver. Everyone has the idea that all you have to do is sign some papers and you'll get a grant. It doesn't work that way. Do you know anything about business plans?
There are two programs that are FREE, Grantgate and The Federal Money Retriever the rest are basically legal scams that plays on our emotionals amd they tell you just enough to get your hopes up .....and send them money you don't have and that makes them worst that other merchants.
See what you think of them, as far as some of the everyday things you can go to my blog http://schmidty.aidpage.com/ and look around. I'm sure you can find something to help.
i wanted to know if there is a place i can go to that it not a website a real walk in place to get grants. if there isnt any where can i go to get the most for my money we have to fix up our house in order to sell it and we have to get a bigger home for our family of 5 not to mentoin way past due bills kids birthdays comimg up real soon and christmas and to fix our car and for our kids for school and there are a few personal things we have too denitst eye care there is just so much and we barely make enough to survive from day to day can someone please help me or help me figure out what to do thank you so much
in response to sandra35...Oh Thank you sandra35. I tried Bill gates and he only helped people in his city...Yes this site is very great to have and help people with information -- Have a great day...
in response to Roseb441702...I had one lady get some catnipfor the cat and he wanted the whole container from the frig. so that was once it is expensive for the way he goes thru it and it had catnip in it. He has cat nip he is just pooped out..waiting for me to get off computer , he gets bored..
in response to Starshine...STARSHINE'S, JUST RECEIVED SOME EMIALS HERE FROM AIDPAGE. IN YOUR MESSAGE ABOVE MENTIONS YOU TRIED BILL GATE'S. NO, HE ONLY HELPS THE PEOPLE IN HIS CATIGORY. THE WEALTHY HELP THE WEATHY, AND THE POOR HELP THE POOR. BUT THAT IS OKAY, WHO SAYS YOU HAVE TO BE RICH TO BE HAPPY. HOW MANY WEALTHY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW THAT ARE DEAD NOW? AND IT'S ALL THE POOR THAT ARE ALIVE AND THEY COUNT THEIR BLESSINGS FOR THE SMALL THINGS IN LIFE. I AM SO THRILLED THAT SOMEONE HAD STARTED AIDPAGE. THIS SITE BEATS ALL THE OTHER'S IN MY OPINION. I LOVE BEING ABLE TO GO ON AND SEND A MESSAGE TO YOU, STARSHINE OR SOMEONE ELSE, AND KNOW THAT YOU ALL UNDERSTAND AND CARE. YOU ALL ARE SO HELPFUL IN SO MANY WAYS. HAVE A WONDERFUL EVENING AND KNOW THAT WE ARE ONE "BIG" FAMILY. SANDAR35
in response to Starshine...On a lighter note when my cat was alive I used to plant catnip and she just loved it! When I get another cat I'm surely going to do that again! Cats are great companions!
in response to Roseb441702...Thank you I am trying to order groceries and finding something to eat. Oh I do have the research skills and thank you very much..And brains and not taking it lightly. Thank you very much for the kind remarks. I like to be like my cat he is sleeping so I am going to try to play with him and find help for my electric bill as I need to crank the airconditioner on...It was 86 in my bedroom last night so I usually stay up late take a nap so I can air this place out..My cat has the life..
ahhh, but the point that I am seeing in your post is that you tried one person one time -
Personally I'm still rooting for you to make it from working at home. Your blog here on Aidpage shows that you have the skills to do research and organize information - that's a talent that one shouldn't take likely.
in response to Roseb441702...Oh well , I am not going to waste my time as I tried Bill Gates and that went no where...To each his own but I personally Iam not doing it...
in response to Starshine...Can't say that I agree with you 100%. Just doing a general research there are over 500,000 links to sites with advice on how to contact / write rich people and ask them for money. I'm not saying that they are all legit but until you have investigated them all (or at least the majority of them) you really can't say 100% for sure that it is something that couldn't possibly work.
I am a young single mom of one and cant find a min. wage job.. i enrolled in classes for my associates degree im starting soon and ill be going half time or fulltime.. but i was just wondering if anyone in the simular situation knows how much i can get to help with bills and getting back on my feet..i know theirs grants to pay for my classes and thats taken care of but how much will go to me so that i can have a roof and electricty while im in school..
in response to Roseb441702...No no on writing millionaires. There was a segment on tv about that and they don't read all of them. Like the celebrites etc and some ie the celebrities don't have the money or are not going to give it to people. One celbrity did invite a couple over telling them he couldn't help them financially.
in response to Clare...Actually I couldn't believe it when I saw it but there are actually online articles that tell you how to write to millionaires and ask them for money so you might even have a chance!
in response to Clare...THANKS FOR RHE ENCOURAGEMENT. AND I DO FEEL LIKE I/ WEE ARRE DOING EVERYTHING WE KNOW TO DO. YOU KNOW I KNOW YOU ARE TO TRUST GOD ALWAYS. HE IS THERE TO PROTECT & SUPPLY OUR NEEDS, BUT SOMETIMES ITS SO HARD TO JUST LEAVE IT UP TO HIM. ALWAYS WANNA RUN THINGS MYSELF.
in response to Roseb441702...thank you for the information. I hope my friend can get her mortgage straightened out. I feel she is on the right track now. Again, thanks for the information. Now, tell us ( all the downtroden citizens) how we can find our Rich Uncle( put the name in here) and get him to give us the money we deserve
What kind of business do you want to start? You must be specific before you can even begin. Also, can you provide the things that are needed in your community? Look around you. You will see something that your neighbors need. or that the community you live in need. The next question you need to ask yourself, " What does the government require( tax ID, etc.)
I would like to start a business too, but I wont attempt it until I know what the government expects of an entreprenuer.
Just dont expect a hand out from grants, and dont give grant funding programs any money in hopes of getting some back.
Keep the faith. You will make it financially, and under your own steam.
As I see it, you are doing the best you know how, and that is a blessing in itself. I pray that you will maintain your courage until such time as things make a turn around.
"Believe in the Lord, and all things will come to you in the end"
This is paraphrased, but believe it. You will receive what you need, in time.
I know this will be of little comfort to you, probably, but I say this in all sincerity.
Sometimes when one door closes, such as you owning your own business, another one opens. I feel you will start buiding again, but you must ask your creator for guidance.
It is written" You have not because you ask not."
Now this works, because I prayed for many years for a horse of my own. and of course a place to keep him or her. I now own that horse, and am training another one.
I started wishing for one when I was 8 years old. I didnt get one till I was in my 50's. I pray you dont have to wait long for your prayers to be answered. One thing you shouldnt do,,,,,Sit around waiting for grants . I am sorry, but too many of my friends have not gotten their money from grants. They got it from working hard.
Really I am starting to get into my last resorts. At one point I made decent money off of my tile installation business. The economy weakened and so did my income. I have been expanding my knowledge of consrtruction, on the physical scale and also the contracting. I have a crew now that consists of framers, roofers and my tile. We do work, but its not under my own business anymore because I lost the income to maintain my business insurance and workers comp. I am told constantly that if i am capable of attaining these things again that i will have as much work as i want and can start bidding on the surrounding cities in my areas EMERGENCY REPAIR GRANTS. Which aregreat to helping a business get on its way to be more sucessful. I am looking for a way to obtain a grant or aid in this matter. I am an ex felon and most of mt employees have been the same, half of which have been minorities. I work hard and so does everone that works for me. Its a requirement. I just want the ooportunity to make it continue.
I AM A STAY AT HOME WIFE AND MOTHER TO THREE CHILDRENIN NEED OF HELP AND OR ADVICE. THIS YEAR OUR INCOME TAX RETURN OF OVER $9000 WAS INTERCEPTED FOR PAST STUDENT LOANS OF MY HUSBANDS. WE HAD NO CLUE OF THIS UNTIL WE RECIEVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL SAYING OUR MONEY WAS TAKEN. I KNOW THE PAYMENT WAS DUE TO THEM, BUT WE RELY ON OUR TAX REFUNDS TO HELP THROUGH THE WHOLE YEAR. THIS HAS CREATED A DOWNWARD SPIRAL IN OUR LIVES. WE WERE EVICTED FROM OUR TOWNHOME AND HAD A FAMILY FRIEND OFFER US THEIR MOBILE HOME TO RENT. NOT THE PRIME SPOT, BUT AFFORDABLE. EVEN STILL WE HAD TO DO MUCH RENOVATING BEFORE IT BEING LIVABLE. BEFORE DOING THIS, WE HAD TO TAKE A CAR TITLE LOAN OUT ON OUR ONLY VEHICLE, WITH THE PROMISE OF ALL PYMTS BEING DUE ON TIME. WE ARE NOW 3 MONTHS BEHIND. I AM SO SCARED OF WALKING OUT ONE MORNING AND OUR CAR BEING GONE. I HAVE HAD BANK ACCTS CHARGED OFF, CHECKS BOUNCE, YOU NAME IT. THE FUEL PUMP ON PUR VEHICLE WENT OUT WHICH ENDED UP COSTING OVER $600 TO FIX. WE ARE BEHIND $1000 ON OUR DAUGHTERS BRACES PYMTS WHICH ALSO SCARES ME. HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN TO YOUR CHILD THAT THEIR BRACES WILL HAVE TO BE TAKEN OFF A YEAR EARLY DUE TO LACK OF MONEY? WE ARE AT THE END OF OUR ROPE. MY HUSBAND WAS LAID OFF, BUT IS NOW WORKING AGAIN, BUT NO PAYCHECKS YET. NOT TIL THE END OF THIS WEEK. NOT SURE HOW GAS WILL BE PUT IN THE CAR THAT I HOPE IS STILL OUTSIDE WHEN I WAKE IN THE MORNING. WE WERE ABLE TO GET A ONE TIME CHECK FROM OUR STATES DEPT OF HUMAN SERVICES, WHICH WAS AWESOME EXCEPT THAT ALMOST ALL OF IT WENT TO THE CAR REPAIRS. WILL SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE ON WHAT OPTIONS WE MIGHT HAVE? WE ARE CONSIDERING BANKRUPTCY, BUT THAT WILL BE THE LAST STRAW. I KNOW THAT WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES STRUGGLING, BUT JUST PLEASE ADD US TO THE LIST OF OTHERS YOU MIGHT HAVE HELPED......SINCERELY, AMBER WARR.............FINANCIAL
Ok, I am going to tell everyone who wants to know about grants, what I have learned from friends who have applied for them.
When one of my friends applied for a grant so she could do rescue work, she was asked to send the organization some money for the processing, so she did. Well, Guess what? She has never heard from this place again after she sent her money . The outfit took her money though. And this was over a month ago. They have never replied to her request, and they have never sent her any funds.
I have come to the following conclusion that all grants are probably this way, unless you know the people who are handing the money out personally.
I dont know any fundmakers. If anyone who is seeking
help from grants, someone who isnt with the same organization, then let the rest of us know.
People who take money, and dont send some back in return, in my opinion they are like the thief in the night.
I have scholarships listed on my blog http://Schmidty.Aidpage.com that you don't find that often. Have you talked to the school counselor, thy know of grants and scholarships.
You will also find information there that will be of more help to you . Good Luck and God Bless

Hello, my name is Celina and I am looking for some type of help the government gives to students who have good grades and would like to have a career. I have heard before, many times, that you do not have to repay the government for this money they give you. I am very interested to know if it is true and also where to go to apply for that help. If any of you know anything concerning this matter, please let me know. It will be highly appreciated!!!
I am getting a mayor in web graphic design and this coming semester will be my 2nd. year of school.
My daughter will be starting her junior year at Howard University. We are a working family, my husband lost his job at his warehouse and we still qualify for nothing as far as financial aid goes. They have denied us for loans. We've applied for scholarships to no avail. Can anyone point us to any funding sources? We have to pay 4500 for tuition this semester and we still need books and meal plans. If anyone has suggestions, we'd greatly appreciate it!
I'm guessing you are using a library computer, so you should be able to print on a limited basis (especially if you tell them it is resources for shelters and help for the homeless).
The City of Lawerence has a website section devoted to the homeless listing agencies and their hours of operation right in your city. My suggestion is you systematically work through the list. Get yourself to the employment office and file for unemployement, get yourself to the foodstamp office and file for emergency food stamps, and find the housing office and get on the list for section 8. If you are former military the VA will allow you to bunk over night. In the day time find a mall that you can sit in to get out of the heat. Many people do this. You can also hang in the library and read.
Just note that places that offer a place to sleep will have check in times, and you'll want to be there early to gain a spot to sleep. If you can get emergency food stamps though, you may actually qualify for cash assistance which could help you to gain a place through the housing commision.
I'd also start looking at regular jobs. See if the local Wal-mart is hiring greeters. It's better than no job at all.
ATT; PLEASE;I NEED HELP WITHIN THE NEXT 14,DAYS IF AT ALL POSSIBLE. I HAVE BEEN LIVING ON THE STREET, FOR THE LAST 21 MONTHS, AND HAVENT RECIVED ANY HELP FROM THE GOVERMENT.

I was wondering if anyone can help me find grants to cover the weatherization of the house I live in it needs new doors and windows. There is no insulation at all in the house
As far as grant programs for your business goes you have to realize that even though these kinds of grants are considered "free" money you do have to kind of give back something in return. You just can't get a government grant to use any way you want. Is your business providing something useful to the community? Have you considered becoming a sub-contractor for the government - in other words - the government will be (one of) your client(s) - yes there are government workers who buy handbags! the fact that you have an "eco-friendly" line is good because there is a big push relating to going "green". You also posted that you have created your own line and if you use certain kinds of workers then you might even be able to get a grant that way!
One example of a website that received a grant (not necessarily a government grant) to actually start a website was a company that got grant money to create a website to show historic places in one particular area.
Is the $50K funding that you are asking for is it for your bag business or for the shelter that you are wanting to start? I ask because most people that start a shelter start small and then build upon that. And the fact that you don't specifically state what you want the $50K for begs me to ask the question.
Just beginning to investigate grants for contractor to do renovation of housing for apt. and rental/vacation properties. will share what we find but it is confusing and difficult to determine how/where to go. Let me know what u find and I will pass on to others.
Thank you my brother in Christ. I thank the Father for his fruit manifested in you. I know your life is blessed because of it. Thank you for letting your light so shine before men......I need some sunglasses(lol).

My husband is retired and I am disabled, we need a lot of help with our house, new roof, new a/c and ramps for our wheelchairs. We just got out of bankruptcy and have very limited funding. Trying to find a or which grant that would be best suited for us is extrememly frustrating. Any information is greatly appreiciated. Thanks.
I was wondering if there is any help available. My well went dry and we just got out of a bankrupcy so I'm having trouble securing a loan. Are there any grants or loans available to help me. Thanks.
I have a listing on my blog for free legal help if you think that will help , http://Schmidty.aidpage.com is where you will find it and there are other links that maybe of help.
Hi. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 10 years ago at the age of 35. Unable to work, physical health is terrible, I am social security. My wife & I are childhood sweathearts, she is a waitress. I get assistance for medications and an annual electric bill credit. However our credit card debt has been a noose around our neck. The monthly payments have begun to take us under. I do not qualify for any other assistance, not even food stamps. I am in desperate need of some type of grant to pay down our debt that is around twenty thousand, or is a chapter 7 or 11 our only alternative? Is there any help for us? Living with this disease along with debt is unbearable. My email address is Starzend64@comcast.net
I am a 27 year old guy who has had a traumatic brain injury. I suffered from a motorcycle accident when I was 21 and in my second year of college at a local community college near me here in Schaumburg, IL. I had to have brain surgery because of the internal bleeding since I wasn't wearing a helmet during the accident. I was unable to continue with schooling at the time, have been unable to hold any jobs with any length of time because of the disabilities I suffer from. I am considered disabled by DHS as well as Social Security, recently being able to finally get my hearing in front of a Social Security Administrative Law Judge because they denied me so many times until I was able to have my hearing on appeal.I'm looking for any information I can find about getting any type of loans that I may qualify for since I am disabled. I'm trying to get back into school and hopefully will be able to retain the information I will be trying to learn but can't afford tuition. I need to know if there is anybody i can speak with who can give me information on how I can obtain some type of loan, either personal or student, so that I can continue on with my life. i don't know if my disability status helps me secure any type of assistance via loans to help get me back on my feet and moving on. I think I will be getting a settlement check soon from SSI but don't know yet. The monthly income from that is rather low, like $750 a month & I am struggle'n with finances very much right now. Anybody with any type of information I can use to pursue answers to my questions would be a great help to me. Thank you for reading this. I can be contacted at fullablarney@live.com if you have any advice or info. -Christian Anderson
in response to D13...You should be able to talk to the Counselor at the college you plan on going to.check my blog out and see if there are any scholarships that may help you. Good Luck and God Bless. If you can't find anything let me know and I'll dig further.
