This person has left the following thank you note:
Words cannot express how I feel at this moment. I want to sincerely thank all donors from the bottom of my heart. It is heartening to see there are always people in this world that are willing to assist others in times of need. I really do plan on paying it forward when I return to work and promise to do so on Modest Needs. Thank you again for everyone's kindness and generosity.
I'm Hoping to Get Back to Work Soon, but I Need Helps With my Phone & Internet Bills First Please!
My Story:
I'm a single man, and I'm 32 years old. I was (am?) a production manager for Live Nation Entertainment in the Greater Philadelphia Region. I made my living producing events for thousands of people anytime and anywhere. Basically, if you ever recall seeing people in golf carts with walkie talkies that look like they haven't slept at music festivals, yeah, that was me. Lately, there's been a lot of uncertainty in the live show business due to Covid-19, and there's not really even a solid timeline of when it will return to normal. I don't know when I'll be able to get back to work. It could be this summer, or fall, or 2022. All I know is that I miss it and that I will savor every minute of it when it does return.
Since being furloughed back in April of 2020, it's been impossible for me to keep up to date on all of my expenses. I also have a hefty amount of student loan debt weighing me down as well. Before Covid-19, I was on track to paying it off relatively quickly because I was living paycheck to paycheck. So, when the pandemic hit, I didn't have hardly anything to rely on in terms of savings. Now, I'm in a situation where I'm behind on a lot of my bills, and I'm worried about being able to keep my service for much longer. Specifically, I'm behind on my phone bill, my car insurance, and my internet bill.
All three of these bills are really essential for me and keeping my service on all three of them will ensure that I can stay in touch with the rest of the world, and it will allow me to continue to search for work. The search for work has been kind of bleak because my only experience is with live events, and no one really wants to hire anyone in that field these days. Still, I'm keeping my hopes up that work will return soon and that I'll be able to handle my bills from there on out. I would be very grateful for this help in the meantime, and I'll do my best to pay this compassion and kindness forward when I'm able to again. I also want to end by saying 'thank you' in advance for this assistance.
