Mutual Aid is also great!

There are so many people in need, many of them being actively harassed and being called scammers, that you can often help to greatest effect with a few spared dollars or a Like and Repost.

With the holidays upon us, don't give to Salvation Army. Not even change. It's a scumbag "charity" run by anti-gay zealots.

Habitat for Humanity is great. Your local Food Bank is great.

So many "charities" are for-profit scams. Use Charity Navigator to vet them. www.charitynavigator.org

Fascist Dem Tracker @fascistdemtracker.bsky.social · 2d

Fun fact about the Salvation Army: they use a form of substance use treatment called work therapy. Oh, and by treatment, I mean they have people who have been convicted of drug charges work for their stores & warehouses in exchange for room, board, around a $1 a week, and minimal actual therapy.

Britt needs help getting shelter for the week. Being unhoused is not safe especially not now and not for anyone with a pet.

If you have the means, please help them out so that Britt can have some comfort too.

I can testify that Maya is in an area where ICE have attacked multiple people + the national guard is around

Please check out their art (shop) and music so that they're in a better position to evacuate if needed.

This is also an urgent need as the city I’m in is under occupation by the mil and ICE, and they have been disappearing people for weeks, including people who are citizens, though they eventually release citizens after terrorizing them.

truthbytwoheart @truthbytwoheart.bsky.social · 1d

I will also need to renew my passport, not only to prove my citizenship but also to be able to leave my city, in case of emergency. I hate that it’s come to this but here we are. This is also an urgent need.

Mem is fatigued, malnourished and isolated, so I'm fundraising for their bills. They need FOOD, giftcards via tinyurl.com/memhousehold

Please DONATE & boost.

No charged phone or wifi, spoiled foods, hot weather. Help us avoid shutoff. A Black trans disabled person who is grieving was forced to trade weeks of life to crowdfund over two thousand five hundred in bills and rent, the latter of which still ended up being late for the seventh month this year! In exchange, they’re grieving whilst malnourished and in destitute conditions without basic needs met. unfortunately, their power set to shutoff on October eigth if seven hundred thirty five is not paid. Reconnection is over nine hundred, hundreds of dollars that could go to their wellbeing instead! Please support them today. moneyyy dot me slash dollar sign memwho.

Mem had late rent for another time this year. Current goals are to prevent utility shutoffs from late bills.

They're disabled, so they can't work to cover this themselves. No support systems too.

Please donate & help them stay housed & safe

Memerey @ismemry.bsky.social · 8d

neglect, cruelty & apathy towards crowdfunding disabled ppl kills us.

I was forced to raise $1535 on my moms 9/25 bday to keep gas on. then rent was late the day she died 10/2.

now im failing to fund basic needs for us 2 & senior cat.

if $735 power shuts off IN 3 DAYS its $925 to restore PLS HELP

a graphic of disconnection warning in three days for power bill. it reads: What used to be (in green text) four hundred and ninety bill, is now (in red text) seven hundred and thirty four bill or disconnection on october eighth. On the side is a call recording from july that states evergy account is not eligible for payment agreement and that one thousand fifty two dollars needed to be paid immediately to avoid disconnection. Text around this reads: "this is not the first time. power shutoff in july after bill rose to one thousand overdue. Allies, stop letting goals fail, redistribute!" paylink is moneyyy.me/$memwho End ID.
