I am very sorry to hear about your situation and am saddened deeply that you and your family are going through this. To address your concerns I will make you aware of what congress is currently doing in efforts to help you directly. Congress is in the works of passing legislation that will greatly ease mortgage distress as well as seeking to grant half a billion dollars for relief efforts. This aid will be immediate and direct as I understand the issues are pressing. Along with this, different areas of work are beginning to be created so I urge you to keep hope and look out for these changes. I hope this is able to ease some of your concerns and I promise to continue working for you and your family.

Best Regards,

FDR

I am very sorry to hear about the hardships you and your family have indured and condemn your families perseverance after such a tragedy as a house fire. Although I know your request of 25 dollars is for the good use of helping you complete your education I cannot set an expected standard of fulfilling financial requests. This would not just go against the American system but have a influx of negative results the American people will grow to expect it . I wish you the best of luck and hope you have the best of luck in the nursing field 
- Herbert Hoover

I am inclined to apologize for the hardships faced by the elder members of your community. I respect and honor you for attempting to help others, often times, people in times of struggle often act selfishly and greedily as there is simply less to go around; however, this is not the case with you and I applaud your selflessness. Unfortunately, to build a institution for the aged would be inconsistent with laissez faire government policy. I agree that the aged deserve some comforts at the end of their lives, but that should be achieved only through one’s diligence and perseverance in their younger years. I wish you the best of luck and hope you continue to help others.

Sincerely, 

Herbert Hoover

I greatly appreciate you writing to me and I am deeply apologetic for the conditions in which your family is enduring. I acknowledge and respect the work ethic of your family and commend you for that. Although I understand the dire circumstances in which you are living, I am hesitant to simply give money to your family. If I were to donate government money to you and your family, what guarantee is there that this would be the last action of benevolence from me to you. If occurrences such as these were to manifest, your family would lose their drive to work and become completely reliant upon me. In the long-term, I believe you and your family will be most benefited by working hard for money and trusting the system of capitalism. In paying for your own education, you will appreciate what you have earned more as opposed to accepting charity. 

If I were to grant you a piece of advice, I would state that you and your family would be best to accumulate the money you need for graduation slowly but on your own. It would be less than desirable for you to be at the mercy of one granting you a loan then having the burden of paying interest in addition to the expenses you already face. I believe if you push for others in your family to work and slowly put aside money, this will manifest into the funds you need to graduate. Despite this, I sympathize greatly with the hardships you are enduring and wish I could do more to help. If time becomes scarce and you still lack the funds to graduate, I encourage you to write to me again and we may potentially derive a solution if you and your family have not yet accumulated the necessary funding. 

With sorrow, 

President Hoover 

We greatly appreciate you reaching out and voicing your concerns. We are well aware of the situation your family, among many others, is in. We are working with Congress to improve the overall public’s condition. Our plans involve increased government involvement to decrease debt and unemployment. We are in the process of passing legislation to ease the financial struggles of the current situation. Government funding, opening of jobs, and efforts to lower taxation are in the works. Your worries of making a living and sending your children to school are very valid at this point in time, but they should soon be relieved.

Best regards,

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt

I am saddened by your troubles, after all you are a valuable hard working farmer of America. I hear your concern about the difficulty in current times to maintain your farm and cattle. The government is doing its best to support you, the farmer. If at any time you need money to supplement your living and cattle, let us know and we will send you the necessary money. Of course I have sympathy for your situation, however in the current state of the nation’s economy it is difficult to provide you with the certainty that you can always depend on us (the government). I hope your situation fixes itself in time, I will supplement you with some money in the meantime. Best of luck in your work, and thank you for your valuable input.

-Herbet Hoover
