Get soulpatch puppets to Chicago!

Hello, I'm Scotty Swan. I'm a one man puppet operation and my company is called soulpatch puppets. I'm seeking $800 to fund my trip to Chicago.My amazing friend Nikki Lynette asked me to be apart of even more amazing project that deals with mental health awareness. Getting The funds would not only help me and my puppets get there but would also help with food, city transportation, hotel, motel or Holiday Inn and other life stuff. Since I'm traveling with puppets, there might be little things like repairing or having to replace a puppet and that would also cover materials(these things happen). Anything you can donate would be rad and please share! Thanks
Scotty
