<div><em>We are currently supporting winter storm victims with unrestricted cash grants of $500 to help them afford basic necessities during dangerous winter weather. Your donation to GoFundMe.org’s Essentials Fund will enable emergency cash grants directly to Americans in need of heat, food and shelter now, and throughout this winter season.</em>
</div>
<div><strong><em>Give today and your donation will double in impact: GoFundMe is matching all donations to the Essentials Fund this winter, up to $250,000.</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For millions of Americans, one unexpected crisis—such as a lost job, an unexpected medical bill, or a broken-down car—spells disaster. Roughly <a href="https://institute.bankofamerica.com/content/dam/economic-insights/paycheck-to-paycheck-lower-income-households.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">45</a>%<a href="https://institute.bankofamerica.com/content/dam/economic-insights/paycheck-to-paycheck-lower-income-households.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">of Americans live paycheck to paycheck</a>, and more than a quarter <a href="https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/emergency-savings-report/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">have no emergency savings</a>. In these circumstances, even a small amount of flexible financial support can determine whether a family weathers the storm or falls into deeper hardship.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Launched in 2020, the Essentials Fund was created to support Americans asking for help on the GoFundMe platform with a one-time emergency cash grant made as a surprise donation to their fundraiser.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Grantees of the Essentials Fund are most often individuals who, through no fault of their own, have experienced an unexpected crisis and are suddenly unable to cover critical expenses like food, housing, or utilities.

Essentials Fund

<div>Due to a series of accidents (between a cat named roller, a towel, and a sink), we had some <strong>major</strong> flooding in our cat lounge which leaked into our cafe space. This is expected to cause the business to be closed for the remainder of the year.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>First and most importantly, the cats are all safe and unharmed. They were all lounging and safe on the furniture. They are all now back in their previous foster homes. This go fund me is to help our staff directly for missed hours during the closure. This will provide financial support to them as we all feel the effects of this process.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you have the needs to provide support, this would mean everything to us. Sharing our story and coming to our pop ups is another great way to help us.
