Finished school, need help with bills and food

orshelack [she/her, comrade/them] to mutual_aid • 3 days ago

Hi there comrades - I'm posting because I'm in serious need of financial assistance. I have a phone bill due soon, and several hundred worth of bills that must be paid in order to tread water. It's also another week until food stamps are refilled.

I'm autistic, trans femme, and unemployed. I just wrapped up a program to become a LMT (Licensed Massage Therapist) but I'll be waiting a while to get the physical license, and I can't even look for work in the field until I have it.

Until then, I have no way to stay afloat without help, and this ship really is scraping the sand bar here - I don't want to lose everything while I'm on the cusp of maybe finding myself in a better situation.

my money app handles are as follows:

Paypal - paypal.me/MykahOrshelack

Venmo - @Orshelack

CashApp - $Orshelack

Thanks to anyone and everyone for any support you can provide, hopefully I can pay it forward some day soon.

RULES:

1. Mods do not vet individual mutual aid requests. Donate at your own risk and hold each other accountable. If you see something even remotely suspicious, do not hesitate to bring it to the attention of a moderator for review.
1. All mutual aid requests must go in this community.
1. Do not request donations for funding anything explicitly illegal.
1. Sending censored donation receipts to the moderator team is based.
1. Moderator Pinning Rules:
a. Moderators are strictly prohibited from promoting/endorsing/pinning individual mutual aid requests (especially those of their own) as this creates unfair post visibility and could therefore benefit more from that than the standard user. Moderators caught engaging in this behavior will be swiftly removed from the moderator board with extreme prejudice.

b. Moderators are allowed to pin and crosspost to !main donation requests for large scope issues such as natural disaster relief funds and bail funds (Example) along with other crowd or moderator compiled informational resources pertaining to donating or volunteering (Example) so long as the utmost due diligence is done prior to endorsement, especially in the case of directing people to donate to non-profit organizations.

c. Financial documents of non-profit organizations available to the public must be heavily scrutinized before moderator endorsement and links to those must also be included in the endorsement post to help the community make their own decision as to whether or not they should donate.
