Yes, it's time for me to annoy, cajole and guilt you out of your hard-earned money!
- Squeaky Wheel needs not one, but TWO surgeries, and she can't afford them. To fix this, Jennifer is having an Evict Lyme FUNdraiser where you can win fun prizes in exchange for donating some money to her surgery fund.
- Bob S of 3 Boxes of BS writes about the manager of a gun shop/shooting range who was robbed, violently assaulted, and is in a coma. If you would like to contribute to his medical fees, go here.
- Brigid tells of a friend who is not only in financial distress, but is also in an abusive marriage. She has an Indiegogo thing which is close to completion. If nothing else, toss her a few bucks via PayPal.
The last time we did this, our community kicked the everliving hell out of cancer. Let's see if we can't beat the crap out of these problems, too!
If it helps, don't think of it as charity -- think of it as a political contribution to decent folks who likely share your values. Even if it's just a dollar, please donate.
