Help Jackie Auer / Jackie Beltaine

Donation protected
Jackie Auer, aka Jackie Beltaine, needs your help to start over again.

Jackie has a chronic and debilitating disease which prevents her from being able to hold any sort of job, so the process of moving is hugely daunting. She plans to stay in the Birmingham, AL area if at all possible. She currently lives in Helena, AL.

She must be moved into a new home of some sort by January 31, 2015. The only money she receives comes from Social Security Disability, so she needs funds for: moving (boxes, packing materials, rental truck or inexpensive movers); to pay deposits for utilities in her name; rental/pet deposits; and to fix either her van or an older Honda Civic so she has a functional vehicle. Additionally, she has medical bills to contend with which are an ongoing hardship.

Despite her physical limitations, Jackie is a former board member of Bama Bully Rescue, helping to save and place bully breeds dogs from shelters into loving homes. She participated in two fight-ring rescues. She sang with Magic City Choral Society, which is an all-inclusive, unauditioned choral group that supports various LGBTQ charities and causes as well as the arts in communities.

Many folks know her as Jackie Beltaine, founder of the Long Island Beltaine Festival. Over the years, she's been active in public paganism, taught public classes on non-traditional topics, and was a guest speaker/ritualist at Shenandoah Midsummer Festival, VA.  She was also one of the original organizers of NYC Pagan Pride Day.

Jackie has given a great deal of her time and energy to helping others. Please consider giving something back to her.

This campaign has been started to help a dear friend, but since I live in Louisville, I can't be there to physically help. YOU can help with a donation. Thank you in advance for donating and/or boosting the signal by posting this campaign far and wide.
