I have a friend that needs to raise $35,000 to get out of debt after being laid off. This would give her the fresh start on life since there are not many jobs in this area she could move and start over. I would like to help her and start a website for donations, even if people just gave a dollar, you get enough people and it could really make a difference.
You are wasting you time; nobody donate to someone just because they lost their job; think about it, anyone can start a website with a FAKE and sad story and ask for money.
All you will get are replies like:
"Why should I pay for her debts when I have my own debts ?"
"I have debts too, may be I should start my own begging website too."
"This is a cheap scam. Get a real job."

She can set up a begging website but unless people know about it and feel she is a charity they want to donate to they won’t.
Most of us only give to people we know or organized charities. At least with a charity you know it is going to people who need it and it is tax deductible.
