help a disabled trans student & their furbabies stay safe

Thank you for reading and for considering helping me and my furbabies stay dry and healthy. It’s difficult for me to ask for help so I’ll start with a little bit about me and my situation; I’m a disabled trans nonbinary person of color who came to California from North Carolina to find safety in community and pursue my dreams after escaping an extremely abusive relationship.

I am currently a full time college student working on three certificates. One for stage/screen acting, another for costume/makeup design, and also musical theatre performance. Because I am working on finding stability in the face of a terrifying world, I’m asking for your help to continue on.

I work online as a content creator and do seasonal acting work as a scare actor in the autumn months all while doing school full time. In spring I’m in school full time as well. Summer and Winter are particularly challenging times for me, I’m doing everything possible to help myself and I still need your help.

Our tiny family has achieved our first goal of purchasing a small class c rv that we can live and work out of. This dream was made possible and by your love and support.

We now find ourselves in the midst of a different and challenging situation. The rv we purchased has quite a bit of water damage so it needs some serious renovation work in the front of the overhead cab area. There are also two vents and a few appliances that need replacing along some electrical maintenance. The roof replacement, rewiring of the lighting fixtures, and engine maintenance will be over 10k and we still believe we can achieve our goals of renovating our 35 year old class c rv whom I’ve named Audrey Hepburn and I’m so in love with. Thank you so much for making this possible.

Our main goal now is to make the renovations necessary to fix this rv up so it doesn’t cause any respiratory damage to us or and so we stay well insulated. (We got rained on hard in the beginning of this year, even with tarps)

We’re also looking to fundraise for a power station and solar panels so we can power a small microwave and hot plate that we’ve yet to attain as well.

Your contribution to our cause is a blessing and we appreciate every donation you send our way.

Thank you again for reading all of this and for considering helping our tiny family. If you can’t donate today, please share this with someone who can. We really appreciate every bit of your care and support. It means everything to us and you’re literally saving our lives by contributing and sharing. Thank you, friend. Your donation helps immensely.
