I currently have a secure roof and access to household food, but no income to cover things like medications and phone service and contributing to the household food/bills myself. Any aid is deeply appreciated.
December: $510
January: $370
They're all precious and impactful but I know this name, I know what they do for a living and that it is not lucrative, and I believe the only way they saw my aid request is that I followed them a couple of hours ago... i.e. as soon as I found out they were on Cohost, because also I've been raving to friends about their work. Thus I am trying to put exactly enough information in here to convey my personal thanks and a smidge of fandom unambiguously if they read this, but maintain anonymity to anyone else. 🫣
It's not even the first donation from someone who's been an inspiration to me, for years in the other case, who I didn't meet until Cohost. This community is so goddamn good, and in fact the reason I decided to only ask for help here is that I wanted to make sure the aid really could be mutual once I navigate my current bullshit and can give back, but I still didn't expect experiences like this and it's just... heartening. Warm.
Anyway. Couple more goals set, with explainers since my prior mumblings are in another chost.
