    Where do you live? If you in the US, call your county social services number to connect with someone who will give you information on consolidating your bills, finding cheaper housing, information on food stamps and food pantries, etc.

    Philanthropists do not do that, they help programs and work on development of large projects. It sounds like you need to find work, start on a budget and change things in your own life. Check with local charities.

    Bottom line: no one is going to give you money just because you got into debt, unless some major catastrophe happened that took away your ability to earn and pay your bills. Then friends and family have fundraisers.

    Philanthropists give to not-for-profits because they get a tax deduction as well as give to a good cause. Welcome to reality.

    If you are "in debt living on borrowed cash," you need a financial advisor, not a philanthropist.

    Let's start with why you are in debt. Then you can formulate a plan for yourself that doesn't depend on a rich guy coming to your rescue. That's an unreasonable idea at best though I can see where it poverty and debts can make one desperate.

    So where are you and what's your story?

    Other people have the same issues. Some work two jobs, some run away. Just giving money rarely helps unless you get spending under control.
