For my birthday this year, instead of making a gofund me fundraiser for a non-profit organization, I am asking for donations that hit closer to home.
My best friend, Aerika, is experiencing a heartbreaking crisis and is in need of support. Emotional support from across the country is not enough, and she needs someone in her corner; in her home where she is now alone and suffering. But I can't be a whole mothership; what she needs is collective robust support to rebuild her life over a couple months.
I am personally in need of funding for flights and food, and she needs emergency padding and unfortunately, uninsured dental work. I myself am completely broke right now and cannot come up with enough on my own in short order. Please help me help her, and secondarily, make my birthday a little more hopeful and less scary.
This year is turning out to be so over-the-top dramatic across the board. Every one of us is vulnerable to collapse and catastrophic loss. Especially now, I feel. We have a duty to each other, and paying it forward is truly how this ecosystem thrives, especially when done consciously and with faith in a higher power.
I am grateful for all you are able to give. 💗🙏
