Help Celeste recover from gallbladder surgery

Donation protected
Hi! I’m Leni and our dear sweet friend Celeste is going in to emergency gallbladder surgery tonight on Christmas 2023. Celeste is an incredible and generous friend who took me in when I was going through an intense phase of burnout a few years ago and I know has taken care of many of us in small
and big ways throughout our years of friendship. She takes such good care of everyone around her in every setting, from the playa to her local community and beyond and this is our chance to take care of her.

$3,000 will replace a month of her salary, she has no paid sick time off and recovery from the surgery will take at least 3 weeks. While we know it’s illegal she is worried her job won’t be available for her to come back to so I’m hoping to raise around $6,000 so she has a cushion and doesn’t have to stress while she's recovering from this major surgery. Funds will be used to cover her basic needs (rent, food, gas, animal care) that is usual covered by her salary.

Any amount helps tremendously!
