Hi, I'm Penny! I'm a...

Well, I'm a lot of things: A storyteller, a photographer, a parent, a loving and supportive friend, a bicyclist, a comedian, an activist, a former competition chili cook...

I'm also transgender, which may be one of the reasons I was unemployed for so much of the last 15 years, despite being very good at my job.

Because look at everything that happens to me as a gift, I'm grateful that I have learned to be very good at living with very little money. And part of what has helped me is knowing when to ask for help, so...

I took my Subie to my favorite garage for a lube, oil & filter and an inspection, only to discover that the stabilizer bar isn't stabilizing, and the part of the left wheel assembly that it connects with also needs to be replaced.

This is gonna cost me $1,200. I don't really have $1.200 at the moment to spare.

So this is where you come in.

If you could help me in any way possible to pay for this, I would be so appreciative!

BTW The way GFM works is that for me to say I need $12K, I have to ask for $18K in order for my page to show you what I need. Any amount I get over $12,000 will be appreciated, and used for me to pay for bringing my show Mounting Washington to the Indy Fringe in August! So think of it as giving me a pre-emptive boost!

Also My birthday is in two weeks so maybe also think of this as a bit of a birthday present to me!!

Welp I can't think of any other string to tug here, so let me just end with a bit thank you to all of you for all of your help!
