Pawned my possessions for a loan

[Johnolfields]

I live in Goldsboro, NC. Rent was Due on the 1st.
500.00 he just raised the rent and I'm behind I will have to find out how much I have been struggling to add to it. I pawned my wedding ring and got a loan to save my car from repo and regret it because my husband died l have nothing to contribute.
I lost the job I had been trying to get them to bring me back on. And I also need my gas cylinder filled at Ormond’s 30lb tank just for cooking and hot water. I'm so poor, even after pawning stuff I couldn't get my medication at the pharmacy. I had to ask a good friend to get it for me and she did. Just me in the house with 1 dog and 6 cats inside and 4 kittens I feed outside. I'm trying really hard, but this would help me very much while I look for new job. I am disabled as well so that makes it hard to
Thank you and God bless you.

So you have used a pawnshop loan already, but need additional money for rent, utilities, etc. Not to mention cars and no electric?
If so, you are in very bad shape. You need professional financial counseling. Maybe live with someone else to rebuild your life. But if you really want another pawn loan near you, look here for programs. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... shops.html

I have fallen behind on my rent, utilities and car payments and the pawnshop loan.
I am told more hours will be available in the coming months but right now I am looking at the possibility of eviction, losing my car and having no electric.
I am a home health care provider who has worked through the pandemic and I am embarrassed to have to be asking for help
I did get qualified for food assistance (SNAP) and am grateful for that but that dies not help me to catch up on my past due bills.

I am 67 years old and had knee surgery in February 2022. I ran out of money and pawned all my possessions to get a loan, which I owe on too.
The job I had at the time was not willing to hold my job and I recently did find employment but I am only working 21 hours each week and traveling 60 plus miles each day that I do work.

I have reached out to all the programs people have directed me to but it seems there are no programs that my situations fits into, and pawning possession only goes so far.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I am a recent graduate who fell on extreme hard times after losing my job. I even pawned my computer for a high interest loan. I haven't been able to afford my rent, phone bill, car payments, and car insurance but I am actively looking for a job with interviews scheduled! If your organization can help me this one time please let me know as soon as possible! Looking to get assistance before March 03, 2020!
Thank you,

My husband was recently laid off and I start a new job today but we have no money or food or stuff (as we pawned it for a loan) and our rent is due Thursday. We have a vehicle but it also needs repair and we have no money for gas to get me back and forth to my new job.
I will not be getting a paycheck until October 8th and we are in desperate need of financial help in the form of a loan. I am still looking for a second job to help us get ahead but my phone will be cut off tomorrow as well. Thank you in advance for any help you can give us.

We never recommend pawning items for money. But since you already did this to get a loan, you need to make do. Your best bet may be to live with friends or family. And then sign up for parenting classes, as if you used a pawn shop to sell your kids goods, that is flat out wrong. So you need much advice too. More on applying for pawn shop loans.

Emergency rent before 6/5/2016 and possibly utilities. I lost my job and unemployment denied me for the last 2 months, so I visited a pawn shop for money. I've only got 1 payment. I have three children and no other income right now. I will be evicted if I don't pay rent and last month. I PAWNED all I owned and my children owned for enough to pay my rent. Please if anyone could help.
