Save Lynn Crosbie & Bobby Dazzler

Donation protected
I'm fundraising for my dear friend Lynn, a brilliant poet and novelist, who is facing a very difficult time.

After more than 25 years of living in her home in Parkdale, Toronto, Lynn and her rescue cat Bobby Dazzler are being evicted. With the state of the Toronto housing market, she's being forced to significantly downsize and part with many of her cherished belongings.

We are in the process of packing up her life, which is an emotional process in itself. Despite all efforts to find employment, Lynn is currently without income and struggling with ongoing health issues that prevent her from doing physical work, including packing and moving. She has applied for social housing, but the waitlist is many years long.

The funds raised will go directly toward:

Van rental
Moving Helpers
Packing and moving supplies
Temporary storage
Rent for emergency housing

For those in Toronto, Lynn is selling some of her artworks, books and other select items. If you would consider a purchase please get in touch directly. Same if you would like to donate your time and help with packing, picking up or dropping off things at goodwill, lending ar car, or donate moving boxes and supplies. Any contributions will help and are appreciated. Lynn is also offering her professional skills, such as editing, in exchange for donations, and grateful for any leads on jobs in her field.

Please also consider sharing this campaign with others.

Thank you so much for your support!

About Me:
I’m a filmmaker from Cologne, Germany, and together with my brother Benjamin, we’ve recently completed a film adaptation of Lynn’s autobiographical book "Life is About Losing Everything" - a title that has, sadly, become a prophetic one.
