Back in January 2026, our close friend Jay fell into financial trouble after a tough breakup. Our community has been doing our best to help emotionally, and directly donating to help pay for power, phone, rent, and car payments. During this time, they got laid off from their job, and on March 10th started having severe gastrointestinal health issues.

Thankfully they got hired on a new job, but still has trouble catching up on expenses.

I received permission to start a fundraiser to keep track of how much we've donated and enable others outside our community to help get Jay back on their feet.

This fundraiser's goal is to help Jay pay their expenses for April until they have a job (either current or a new one) which is self-sustaining.

All donations will go directly to the beneficiary, Jay, who is exceedingly thankful for everyone who's helped these past three months. Any donation amount is worthwhile. Our goal can be partially met and still succeed in providing a buffer for Jay's expenses.
