Please Help Gina Rebuild @NerdDNA

Jintrovert Trevortnij is organizing this fundraiser.

Hi, my name is Gina and for the last four years, I’ve created experiences to facilitate, how we can all live a #sustainable lifestyle. All of my experiences are fun, safe, learning environments for all ages. This started as an idea while traveling that slowly grew into a passion. I raised some money, took a chance, and rented studio space to see what kind of individuals these events would attract. It was one of the best decisions I could make, to help fulfill my purpose. Photos will show how many amazing people I've met on my journey. I've done my experiences in my studio, schools, private clubs, private homes, and even other countries.

Recently my experience space was broken into, vandalized, and thrown in a dumpster. I was devastated, words can’t express how it feels to grow something from an idea and then to come and see it all gone. Some things I had to save up for to get, others were gifts from past clients that are irreplaceable I was overcome by so much emotion and adrenaline, even with 2 bad knees I climbed in that dumpster to only see some of my things and all I could do was cry. Here is me covered in dirt, debris, and paint.

I put together a collage of responses and photos from my experience space before and after the damage. Please help me by sharing this story with as many people as possible, donating whatever you can, and leaving me kind words in my comments. Kind words of encouragement are just as helpful. The money raised will help me recoup supplies lost, afford a new workspace in a very expensive real estate market (NYC) and help support the income lost from canceling appointments during this ordeal. SInce i got this space prior to covid prices have increased drastically.

I also created an Amazon wishlist for anyone interested in just getting me items: Amazon

While processing this trauma, I've realized that this doesn't mean it's over for @NerdDNA, sometimes things have to come to an end to be rebirthed in a bigger and better way. I hope through my reviews and pictures you can see how much these experiences help connect me to like-minded individuals that share the same passions for helping the environment.
