| Not to sound like a complete ass, but let him climb out of his own hole.  It's how you learn lessons.  I screwed up my credit badly, ended up filing bankruptcy (still on my report for another 2 years).  I learned my lesson, started fixing my own credit and even with the bankruptcy on there I have >680...  not perfect by any means, but great for having that giant black mark.  Bad credit happens, it sucks, but you can move on.  Being a rider on someone else's credit (i.e.- not being the primary credit holder) won';t help as much as getting a secured card of his own and using it.  If he can give you $250-500 he can get a secured Visa.
