    <title>Donations for My GOD HELP! STUDENT IN NEED</title>
    <link>http://www.pledgie.com/campaigns/494</link>
    <description> Do you ever think "Gosh, my student loan (or fill in the blank)i AM IN NEED OF HELP.the stress of it all is getting to me.Okay, a little bit about me: I accumulated $80,000+ in student loans after obtaining my 4-year undergraduate Bachelor\'s Degree in Psychology and my 3-year Master\'s Degree in Community Counseling. I have this wonderful education but unfortunately, I didn\'t go into a field that pays well at all. I started off in the mental health field and only ever made in the $20\'s the entire time I was employed as a counselor. I then left that field to work in the field of Higher Education as an Academic Advisor where I have made just a little more (in the $30\'s). Because I have made such little income, I have had to continually put my loans in forbearance (once I used up all of my deferrment options). Well, in forbearance, they continue to accumulate interest, so now my student loan balance is $119,765.62. This student loan debt is like a dark cloud that continues to follow me. I used to try not to get so stressed out about it because I thought that I would get married, get paid better, etc. and then be able to handle the debt, but none of these things have happened for me.
Now, I find myself 30 years old and still watching my student loan balance go up instead of down. Unless I win the lottery, I\'m never going to have a large income and this student loan debt is really holding me back from things such as being able to secure a fixed mortgage. Please, if you\'re reading this and you have the kind of money that could help someone like me, I would really appreciate your help.If you read all of this, thank you for your time and consideration. Dosn't matter what amount  it is. anything that will help me!! thank you and god bless</description>
