Help Ron Drummond Avoid Homelessness
Donazione protetta
Please help our friend, the wonderful person and talented writer Ron Drummond, avoid homelessness. He is asking for the help of the wider community in seeking out longer-term employment and housing opportunities (see below), but in the short term, would you please help him with a financial gift in this transition period to help him during this trying time?
From Ron: “As of today, I am 18 days away from BECOMING HOMELESS. A two-year gig exchanging work-and-presence for housing is coming to an end. I have no savings and no income stream. My on-going efforts to avoid the overflowing streets as my next destination continue. From more than a few friends I have received help and encouragement that have eased my way, for which I am grateful, but the central problems remain. I am swallowing my shame and terror and making this post public:
If you or anyone you know is in need of medium- to long-term housesitting and/or pet-sitting or other forms of presence-based employment-with-housing almost anywhere in the world, or can offer me sanctuary for a month (preferably two or three months) or longer, or knows of a job or gig that would make use of my uniquely-constituted skillset as a writer, editor, scholar, speculative thinker, public speaker, voiceover artist, reader-aloud, please contact me via "private message" on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ron.drummond.9/posts/10222221139625775
I have received an offer of long-term storage for some of my cultural artefacts and irreplaceable archives, but would welcome further such offers. This could free me up to accept housing and work offers in far-flung places.
Thank you in advance for your kind attentions, responses, suggestions, thoughtful comments, offers of housing or assistance.”
All donations will go directly to Ron Drummond.
