A screenshot of Fen's October Bills Goal, here's what it says:

"Posting October Goal a bit early in hopes that some of it will get done.
Also on the first week in the 2nd half of October, my job will be renovating for an entire work week, so I don't know if I can do vacation time or what will happen. Plus my hours can be a bit hectic, honestly.

★ Rent is always $850 a month, so after bills are out of the way, anything towards rent helps with us also getting necessities too during pay days. $106.25 covers me for the week of renovations.
• Electric was $106, so it's safe to assume $150 will cover the next months electric.
• Wi-Fi is $58.17 due on Oct 19th.
• Garbage is $110 every 3 months ($77.50 left so far).

I also need stuff from my Main (Necessities) Throne Wishlist please, it helps us be able to live here easier.

Goals base total right now = $450 (including any possible transfer fees)"

For Disabled Indigenous Latina family

Sabi is disabled 24/7 caretaker for elderly mom w/ dementia & injured ESA bunny (Little Man); also multidisciplinary artist & advocate

3517 USD covers hotel (both past due and due Tuesday), bills (including vet bill), as well as food, gas & toiletries.

754 covers current Hotel Past Due & late fees (which grow with each day not covered).

1404 covers all hotel (including past due and 650 due Tuesday).

A MINIMUM of 661 is needed by 11AM Eastern, to prevent further accumulation of late fees.

The hotel will likely be increasing soon, typically higher in colder months.

Another thing regarding mutual aid & who your community is, is a lot of disabled people in particular are very isolated. They're in deep poverty & complete abandonment. Literally. So they hop online to have community. Sometimes it's the only community they have & the only way they can get help.
