What they care about

I am a musician who simply wants to see everyone have access to high quality resources, dignity, and self determination within mutually determined community.

    Last few days of October and this legal battle and we are beyond close!! Please share, share, and share!!!!!!! and donate if you haven't since the beginning and are in a place to do so! THANK YOU!!
    THANK YOU we are getting so much closer! Please take a day or two to share or reach out intentionally to ask someone and we are going to get there! I am so emotional, I've never done this solo before and its all new to me. To feel so powerless and so supported in supporting my friend after reaching the very end of my own power. It is incredible and incredibly humbling. I truly know gratitude and it is changing me. Thanks for continuing to share.
    FINAL PUSH! Emergency ask, we need at least $2.5K more. That is 100 people giving 25 dollars!! If everyone who sees this donates and asks even one person that could potentially get us there! Darnell's final court date is coming up. I have personally given him more than 20k over these last few months and I am completely wiped out. I might get part of that back when he wins his settlement and I might not, nothing is guaranteed for me but I have successfully kept him out of jail so far and for now that is enough. I am asking people to please both share this link and donate what you can so Darnell can make it through this last part of his legal battle. Thank you. Having a record, while being temporarily houseless, no familial support system, and navigating the court system has been hell for him and I have done my best to support despite having my own battles that I mostly keep to myself. We need your help. Please share and donate what you can. One personal ask to one friend to match your donation will get us there. As you well know, this system is designed to keep people recidivating, I can't even go into the insane other struggles he has had in these last few months just trying to get to this court date with corrupt police stealing from him in the bronx, not to mention being kicked off food stamps on a technicality, that's honestly just the tip of the iceberg. Darnell has had a chaotic life, I have known him almost 15 years and he is making very different choices and is extremely motivated. Please help him through the final part of this. Please do what you can
    Short message of gratitude: This is all so humbling to see who has contributed and to find the limits of my ability to help someone with support and still be able to pay my own life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I am learning a lot right now about so many things. Lessons that are valuable and difficult. We successfully covered the legal expenses from the last blast. I'm going to continue posting to social media. Please know that any help sharing to people over the next month or any $ of any amount you can contribute makes a huge difference in getting through the last 30 days of this. He has 1-2 more legal expenses coming up before this is through. Please know that what you have done is more than enough and more than expected by anyone and if you've reached your limit for giving this month or next, just take the gratitude and move on. Thank you
    Hello Thank you so much, here is a message from Darnell to all of you: "To whom it may concern: I Mr Williams can really use prayers and all the financial support I can get right now. I have been down on my luck for some time now. Ever since I was injured on my job. I've been out of work ever since the day of the incident which was 2/18/25. I've been waiting for my settlement & workers comp to kick in but to no avail. I lost my place , and everything I owned. And now I feel like if I don't get the help I really need ima lose my mind next ! I pawned everything I had that was valuable... But that was only enough to carry me for a few days to eat. And towards shelter. I've been borrowing and asking for some help. But I exhausted all my resources and I'm in debt up to my ears I've tried everything I can to keep my head above water but I just keep finding myself spiraling down.and just when I thought it couldn't get any worse... I got into a gypsy cab.on my way to sleep on a friend's couch And the cab driver had a firearm in the vehicle and because. I was in the vehicle when he got pulled over in a traffic stop. Because he didn't have a license,registration, or insurance. We were both arrested and charged with the fire arm. So now this court date coming up on the 22nd of this month .. if I don't have money to pay my court fees and pay my lawyer. I can do years in jail for something I had nothing to do with. And if I'm in jail. I won't receive compensation for my injuries. Because I won't be out to attend the court dates coming up regarding the workers comp case. And I'll be right back to square one! So Please if anyone can please help me get back on my feet until I get pass this hardship I would greatly appreciate it sincerely... D.Williams ..." Please share and donate as you are able! We are in the home stretch and I am tapped out!
    Hello! Darnell needs some urgent help. Please look at this for me. First thank you so much to everyone who has given. It has made a difference. We need another major push right now so if you can reach back in and give something as well as also share it with one person who can pledge to give, it could change his life and the entire trajectory of his future. The main updates are that he has his final workers comp hearing on October 30th and he needs basic cost of living expenses while he is unable to work. Some crazy unbelievable and disgusting things have happened, he got pulled over in the back of a cab with out of date license plates, the police found a gun under the drivers seat in Nassau County and are trying to pin it on him because of his record from a few years ago. It's like out of a bad movie, it's all on body cam so it will get thrown out but now he needs legal fees to deal with this extra random case that has come up and if he can't pay those he gets locked up and misses the workers comp case, so its an emergency. I have about drained my savings at this point in loans and a whole lot of straight up giving, I am not asking you to do anything I haven't done 500x. I am struggling myself at this point and I can't ask my parents for more money for this than I have. I need help. We need help to get through october 30th. Please take a moment to ask who you can, share what you can with specific asks, and give yourself if you are at all able. Thank you, Daniel
