Help Allynn Pay for Tattoo School!

Donation protected

Hello folks! It is never fun to have to ask for money, but being a single dad, I’ve always needed a little extra help from my community to get by. I have been out of work since October due to COVID, but made the big decision in March to pursue a career in tattooing rather than go back to care work. The previous jobs I’ve been in that have actually made enough to pay for our apartment have not been good to my mental health or left me with the emotional energy to be present for my children and friends. Those of you who know me know that I have been interested in tattooing for a long time. I love the way that tattoos have made me feel better and more in love with my queer and trans body, and I am excited at the prospect of collaborating with others as they explore their own personal tattoo relationships. This will be a job in which I get to be creative every day and interact with others doing something I enjoy. I believe strongly that it will be much more sustainable for a stable future for me and the kids. I’ve been immensely blessed to have the first half of my tuition, so I am able to start this week! To do the entire program and be certified, I will need to raise the second half, and that’s where you come in. Please donate if you can, and if you can’t, please share. You will be helping a queer dad and his family out so much. Thanks!
