[$10 / $900] Rent Fundraising Post - Day 1 (Deadline: October 1st)

Angel [any] to mutual_aid • 2 months ago

Starting today, I'm gonna make a series of posts that are in the format of "[$X / $900] Rent Fundraising Post - Day Y (Deadline: October 1)"

I've been having tons of anxiety about meeting that goal because, considering how everything has stacked up over this rough period, I don't currently have any amount for this goal to be honest.

I had to take care of a few other things first, but now I'm fairly comfortable in all aspects besides meeting this rent deadline of October 1st, having food and all that.

My mental health is really rocky right now, and I'm dealing with harsh feelings pertaining to bigotry like racism, transmisogyny, enbyphobia, ableism, etc.

With that in mind, I'd like to emphasize that any amount helps, and when I say any, I mean any. My situation feels bad enough that even a $1 donation would make me soy out at this point. Also, strength in numbers is a comforting thing to imagine. Like, if 10 people donated me 10 dollars each over the course of 9 days, that could reach the goal, but ultimately, I appreciate whatever you all have the means to contribute. I will keep these posts regularly updated, by the way!

Hexbear is arguably the only place I have access to where I don't have to be fearful when it comes to facing bigotry. That is something I'm so grateful for, as it's been my biggest desire for ages.

Thank you all 🥺👉👈

I have Cash App, Venmo, and PayPal ❤️❤️❤️
