</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hello there!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Amber, I am an event planner located in New York City!
</div>
<div>It's been on my heart for a very long while to do activations and pop-ups for different fandoms and community events. I'm seeking to bring Mermaid Magic to NYC for young kids, by hosting a movie screening day during the opening weekend of Disney's live-action The Little Mermaid movie, starring Halle Bailey!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I, like many others, was fascinated by tales of mermaids as a child! Collections of mermaid stories from different cultures around the world still live on my bookshelf.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The announcements of the Little Mermaid live-action touched MANY hearts around the world, and I would love nothing better than to allow young children to not only see Halle-Ariel on the big screen, but to also meet live mermaids in the flesh! Representation is a big creative inspiration and I would love to organize this experience!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/71550439_1678299375497666_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I already consulted big theater chains like AMC, Regal, and other independent theaters around midtown and lower Manhattan, and between all of their space availabilities, and costs of material, this is what I'm trying to go for:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Below are my goals:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>✅ <strong>Book a theater auditorium within Manhattan</strong> <strong>- Success! </strong>
</li>
</ul>
<div>Thanks to your sharing and donating, we have fully funded a 115-seat auditorium at an AMC theater in Manhattan!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Provide FREE concession packs for each child - </strong>Because sitting through a 2+ hour movie is sure to make one hungry!
</li>
<li><strong>Create little gift bags</strong> - for small, themed coloring or reading books, treats and trinkets for the number of children who attend!
</li>
<li><strong>Provide live Mermaid Entertainment</strong> - The mermaids at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/spoonfulofsugarent" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Spoonful of Sugar Entertainment</a> would love to splash by to greet attendees. Kids meeting their favorite fairytale creatures in person inspires them to make big goals-- like learning to swim, becoming a professional swimmer (or mermaid!), becoming passionate about marine life and science! Depending on how much is funded there could be a pair of lovely mermaids, or if we're able to afford a floor buyout, then we can have a full roster of merfolk, all sizes, colors, etc.!
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With those factors put together, the<strong> baseline goal would be approximately $5,000</strong> for buyouts for approximately 115 seats, with giftbags, and mermaid entertainment!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Once we hit that number, our next goal would be an additional <strong>$2500</strong> for another auditorium of 60 seats and all of the above, with more staffing and more mermaids for the increased capacity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our MAX Stretch goal will be <strong>$10,000</strong>-- this would afford to provide this experience for up to <strong>200 people</strong>, with snacks, gift bags, staffing, and mermaid entertainment!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I would love to take things further by organizing children hospital screenings for pediatric patients, funding a Girl Scout screening (especially for my dears at Troop 6000), and more! My mindset is 'the sky is the limit', but the main factor would be a community that would support this endeavor. Consider helping us make this a reality!

NYC Little Mermaid Showing #LittleMermaidChallenge

<div>"Hello! My name is Amber, and I've created this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friend Lexi. Many know her by DJ Xonora (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/XonoraDJ)" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/XonoraDJ" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.facebook.com/XonoraDJ</a>)</a> -- for well over 10 years she's lived abroad in Japan, Malaysia, and currently lives in Thailand, working for a school and is also the proud mom of an adorable Tonkinese kitty!
</div>

<div>(Partners in crime)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anyone who knows Xonora knows that when it comes to her needs, she tries to be very humble about herself. But at this time, we are desperately seeking funds to help her receive emergency care for a condition that's significantly affecting her quality of life and ability to work.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After many months of increasing pain, it's been discovered that there is a large chocolate cyst, and multiple tumors within the reproductive organs. While likely not cancerous, they nearly doubled in size in little over a month-- causing unimaginable pain daily. The pain disrupts her ability to work without interruption at work, be physically active on free days, and even eat and sleep.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/67486967_1660876797448962_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>(Photo above is the latest sonogram of the chocolate cyst-- the alien-looking thing was once one round boi, but within a month, has become like a... conjoined twin-like cyst. It was originally the size of a small orange and is now about the size of a big mango. It continues to grow at a fast rate.)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Her doctors said that these need to be removed soon, along with removing the entire left ovary. A surgery procedure was scheduled for the end of September but may have to be pushed sooner, and the expenses will be tough to gather on one's own in such a short amount of time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In short, I am raising funds on her behalf to cover her medical needs. The money raised from this campaign will be for Lex's medical expenses, including surgery and aftercare, and to help with living expenses during the recovery period, along with whatever costs for transferring costs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please help me achieve this goal of taking care of my dear friend!
</div>

<div>Message to Japanese friends, from Xonora:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>6月から体内の謎の痛みが始まって、今までの人生に一番辛い痛みです。怖くて早く病院に行きました。超音波など色々検査を受けて、大きいチョコレート嚢胞と子宮の腫瘍が発見された。手術が必要です。一応、9月終わりに手術の予約入れましたが、この間痛みが続きながら仕事行かなきゃいけません。２週間前ぐらい、痛みが突然さらに強くなって、薬飲んでも落ち着かなくて、本当に怖い状態になったので職場のHRさんが救急車を呼んで病院のERに運ばれました。病院でまた超音波検査を受けたら凄くショックでした: 1ヶ月半ぐらいでチョコレート嚢胞が75%ぐらい大きくなりました。手術で外すまで、毎日大変な痛みが来る可能性が高くて、ドンドン悪くなると言われました。
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>付けた超音波検査の写真は赤ちゃんではなく、左側の卵巣に付いているチョコレート嚢胞です
</div>
<div>早く元気に戻りたいです。
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>でも、一つの問題がありました。職場がちゃんと国民健康保険を登録していません。1人で登録して全額自腹にしようとしてもNGと言われました。国民健康保険の問題は多分仕事を変えるまで直さない見たいです。それで、今までの病院代通り、手術も全額自腹になります。値段が思ってたより高いし、タイでの給料がマジで少なくてどうしようってずっと悩んでました。

Emergency Medical Care for Xonora!

Christopher Phiouthong lives his life as an inspiring youth leader, a caring friend, and a positive influence to the community. <br /><img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/28984628_15232555430_r.jpeg" alt="28984628_15232555430_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /><br />On the night of April 5th, Christopher was a victim to a brutal assault and is currently in critical care in the hospital. <strong>The assault involved the use of extremely corrosive acid which resulted in deep burns to over 60% of his body, complete facial disfigurement, and permanent loss of vision in both eyes.</strong> He is currently undergoing multiple surgeries and life preserving treatments. The battle for Christopher has just begun. He has a very long and difficult road ahead of him. While he has the help of his family and community, it will not be enough to support him through this grueling journey. His parents are missionaries in Thailand and are in need of financial assistance due to Christopher’s lack of medical insurance and the cost of the extensive care he is receiving. <br /><br />Many have reached out and asked how can they help. This GoFundMe account is set up for all monetary donations to help Christopher and his family. Please note, we would greatly appreciate any kind of support, not just monetary. Your prayers, thoughts, and energy will go a long way. <br /><br /><strong>Please help us share this page and raise awareness for Christopher.</strong><br /><br />We thank each and every one of you for supporting Christopher in his time of need. <br /><br />Thank you and God bless you.

<div>Hi friends and GFM family, I'm reaching out once again to help a dear friend to receive much needed medical care!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My friend Georgia is a bright soul, dedicated in sharing her Brazilian culture and history, and helping open opportunities to young people and other services in her community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A few months ago, she had to be hospitalized for a body infection caused by
</div>
<div>Penitonsillar abscesses. Enlarged tonsils/adenoids can cause inflammation and bacterial infections of those tissues, which can result in blocked airways, inability to eat/drink or move the mouth from swelling, ear infections, fevers, strep throat, and can spread and worsen to things like pneumonia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I personally had this same problem when I was small, and I know the pain of constantly being sick and unable to speak or eat. For Georgia as a working young adult, this affects her daily life, as the episodes of sickness affects her ability to work and help provide for her family, and show up for her community. Earlier episodes have even caused one of her ear drums to rupture, which now causes chronic ear pain. Now, its beginning to take over as the worsening symptoms and hospitalizations are keeping her from rest, work and good quality of life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Georgia is currently waitlisted to receive a tonsillectomy, septoplasty, and turbinectomy. While the public health care system allows the surgery to be done for free, she has to pay for anesthesia and associated costs (approx. R$4,000), plus as the cost of medications to keep the flare-ups controlled in the meantime.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is a high cost for a working-class Brazilian, and hard to attain when constantly sick. That is why I'm hoping that my community of friends and frequent patrons can help me raise what she needs so that she can be treated quickly as soon as she can, and be able to resume her daily life and doing what she loves most!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am seeking to raise at least $1000 USD, to cover the costs for the anesthesia, along with a little extra to help offset any medication and food/home costs until she has recovered. Any level of giving, even $5-10 is deeply appreciated. Thank you in advance for your liberality in giving!
</div>
