Good day kind-hearted readers,
My name is Des, 34 Female, I am based in the Phillippines. The third child and the youngest.
I have been active in doing voluntary work in helping other people. We usually go to remote areas and spread joy to a lot of people and children.
I am currently employed and with all the extra pesos I have, I save it so I can have enough money to buy food and give it to the street children.
All has been well until Covid hit, and a LOT has changed since then.
A year after while covid is still pandemic, our place was severely affected by typhoon Odette.
We celebrated Christmas and New Year without electricity.
But I am still thankful that I get to spend it with my family.
My father lost his job due to his age (He is a Senior Citizen). My mother has no work. All my brothers are married and have each an individual married life.
I stepped in to be the breadwinner of the family.
It was a shocker because I was not expecting this kind of role, the expenses, food, medicines, and a lot more. All are to be divided based on my salary.
I was very worried because the pay I get was not enough to cover it.
I applied for some loans just to survive, and be able to bring food in the table.
Over the months, I did not notice that I was out of track on my expenses due to my loans and now I am drowned in debt.
I don't know how to pay them all, even my family can't help me.
I seek help from friends and relatives and thankfully some of them lent me some money to pay partial on my debt.
I know what I did was reckless and I regret it for life.
I should have known better. I should have acted better.
I wanted to start again, do business perhaps, and apply for part-time jobs so I can get enough income but the debt is holding me.
I am knocking on your kind hearts for any amount to help me start over.
Rest assured, in God's time, when I'll be stable, ill pay it forward.
Give me one more chance.
With Hope,
Desirie Tan
