After asking for people to review my listing...I took your advice.  I withdrew from my group and raised my interest rate.  The interest rate is the max for my state. 

Purpose of loan
I am going to be using the loan to pay off credit cards that have become out of control due to a program I entered that I thought would help. I have 3 major credit cards, all which total 19600.  The interest rate on these CC are high and I would like to consolidate to lower the interest rate

I have those stupid 3 credit cards that I screwed up on with the company. Currenlty they are considered charged off, but I am making outrageous payments to the companies. The DQ's will not come off my account until I can pay those off. The payments I am making do not show up on my score until then. I am looking for the loan to do that. In return it will impove my credit score.
 
My financial situation:

Currenlty, my husband and I own our home and have never been late on a payment.  I entered a program to help get out of debt 2 years ago.  The program hurt me more than it helped.    I made a bad decsion with using this company.  I would like to settle these accounts and start fresh.  I work full time as a recreational therapist and I love my job.  I have been with the company for 7 years.  Before we got married, my husband and I both carried debt into the marriage.  We decided we both wanted to take care of our previous debt independently.  I want to eliminate this to be able to give more to my family and live a little less stressed.  :) On Aug 9th, we had our first child.  I would like to get these cc paid off with a  lower interest rate and a shorter amount of time. 

(Monthly net income: $ 1520

With this loan...I will be able to eliminate the credit card portion to pay off those cards with a lower interest rate.
