Lost my job and I need to do some traveling in June and not sure how to go about getting assistance

Hello, everybody, my name is Michael Hogg. The reason why I'm writing to you is because I need to travel to Albany, New York on June 23rd and return on June 30th to work a Baseball tournament. I asked the people who are running the tournament if they could help me out with a ticket to get out there and unfortunately they said they couldn't since there providing the Meals Lodging and travel to and from the fields. I would be paying for this myself but I recently lost my job and my wife's health issues, make it impossible for her to work. I'm not trying to sound like someone who is mooching, as I would be gladly to repay the person or people who can help me out if they choose too. 

 

In closing, I would like to say thank you so much for letting me take a moment of everybody's time for letting me post something on here and I hope to hear back soon regarding this.

 

Take care have a great day and God Bless,

 

Michael

Well in this country we dont refer to baseball games as tournaments, so what scam are you trying to pull?

Actually there are traveling and competing baseball leagues that go and play in touranments. I owned a condo in FL and there were tournaments all the time for baseball and softball. So maybe check into it first before you think someone is scamming. Granted, there are a lot of scammers! Also, if you aren't going to particpate or say something nice, maybe think twice before replying. Hope you enjoy your travels with SWA!
