Support Elliott's Urgent Medical and Moving Needs
Donation protected
if you know me, you know i hate asking for help.
this is me. asking you. for your help.
after being out of work for a year and disabled by long covid, i have used all of my savings and must now be out of my apartment by jan 31st at the absolute latest.
i've got no money, no place to stay long-term, and some urgent medical necessities i can't handle on my own. i am selling everything i own to cover additional medical bills, food, and other costs.
i am raising:
- $4,400 for movers, cleaners, packers, moving vehicle, and gas
- $5,600 for urgent dental and gum surgery to head off an oral abscess (example image here; not my photo). i pushed back surgery to pay rent and other medical bills and now shit is dire. i am in pain every day.
note: i am not the beneficiary for this campaign because receiving any amount of “gift” support will make me ineligible for ebt/food stamps.
if you have funds to share, even if it's just $1, please do.
if you can't give just $1, you can help by:
- sharing this campaign on IG, discord, FB, and any other social media with a brief statement from you vouching for me or asking people to give. (marketing studies prove that people are significantly more likely to donate when they feel a personal connection to the recipient. building a sense of connection is a key factor in driving generosity.) the more you share, the more help i get!
if you donate and help, you are the sweetest baby angel on earth.
if i've ever made you laugh, smile, chuckle, or shake your head in disbelief, consider tossing something my way. all is appreciated.
