How to make a request for help

A.) Make a post with your request. Be specific: Include what you need, why you need it, what part of Pittsburgh you are in, and when you need help.

B.) Do not request help if you can afford to pay someone. We are not a substitute to paid labor for those who can afford it. Please don't take away an opportunity from someone who really needs it by lying about your situation.

C.) Do not request financial help. There are other subreddits for loans and assistance. We are not associated with them, but they are: here and here. No free/wanted posts. Use your local Buy Nothing group for that.

D.) Be patient. Allow up to a few days for a response.

E.) Coordinate a plan for help in the comments. If someone is able to help you, exchange contact information in a private message. Do not post personal info in the public post. Never share contact information with someone who messages you without commenting in your help request post first.

F.) Only one help request post per person is allowed. We do not have the resources to help people multiple times.
