<div>Hi, my name is Talia, and I’m fundraising for my fur child and soulmate, Cala.
</div>
<div>She's been experiencing ongoing health issues that require extensive amounts of testing. As some of you may know, I lost my husband, Johl, to cancer at the beginning of this year, and it’s been emotionally and financially devastating. Cala and I have a very special relationship.  She's been my best friend and my support throughout this experience. Her procedure today is estimated at 8K, and it was a heavy and unexpected blow. I’d be forever grateful if you have the means and would like to donate to her care.

<div>Hi, I'm Karen, owner of Dream Bakery. Last fall we closed our doors due to the fallout from COVID.  We thought we were out of business for good, but the incredible outpouring of love and support from our amazing community convinced us that we needed to find a way to keep the dream alive. Dedicated gluten free kitchen space is incredibly hard to find in Austin, but we lucked into a shared kitchen in far South Austin that has allowed us to do pop ups and the Circle C Famer's market, and to begin to bring our products to store shelves like People's Pharmacy. The main drawbacks?  Our space is tiny, so we are limited in what we can produce. And we aren't allowed to fry anything, so our best-selling yeast-raised fried donuts are off the menu. And it's waaaay south. So not ideal for a lot of our customers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But now we have an opportunity to move into a kitchen of our VERY OWN where we can make all your favorites (donuts! churros! croissants! toaster pastries! pizza! bread! ALL THE THINGS) near the intersection of Hwy 71 and South Congress (so not quite so far south). It would allow us to offer pick up at the kitchen on a regular basis for those who can't make it to the farmer's market. And it would allow us to scale so we can build on what we've started with People's Pharmacy to bring our delicious, celiac-safe gluten free baked goods to more store shelves (dare we even say Whole Foods?)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>BUT, the kitchen needs repairs to the vent hood in order to pass inspection so that it can be permitted by the city. And every square inch needs to be professionally cleaned and sanitized to be sure it's safe for gluten free food production. That's where you come in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are hoping to raise $5000 by the end of March so that we can make this kitchen happen. We are still clawing our way back from last fall and don't have that kind of cash reserve. Any amount you can donate will help us move Dream Bakery forward and help us continue serving the gluten free community we love so much. As always we appreciate all of you so much! Thank you for your continued support!

As they say, only the good die young. Always there to lend a helping hand, Jimmy was known as a friend and "Uncle Jimmy" to many. <br /><br />Jim fought valiantly through emergency surgeries, dialysis, and other complications caused by COVID-19,  but on February 17, 2021 we lost a good one. The COVID-19 pandemic has taken so many friends and loved ones from all of us, and we know that our grief is joined by that of millions of other families who have lost someone they love. <br /><br />But Jimmy was one in a million- a devoted husband, loving father, adored brother, cherished uncle to everyone, loyal friend, and the best damn fisherman you ever did meet. <br /><br />We are seeking donations to help the family defray the cost of Jim's extended stay in the ICU and other expenses related to his untimely passing.  Donations will go directly to Jim's family.

<div>Help Tommy Ditto Crocker Get the Urgent Surgery He Needs!

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Hello, everyone. We are reaching out to raise funds for Tommy Ditto Crocker's emergency surgery. Tommy is facing a complete urethral blockage that requires immediate attention. For the past three years, he has been a cherished member of the Ditto Crocker family, bringing joy and love to our lives.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Kristin helped rescue Tommy as a kitten, along with his mother and sister, and over the last year, he's battled bladder and urethral issues. His dedicated family and veterinary team have been managing his condition with special diets and medication. Unfortunately, Tommy has now become fully blocked, and due to the delicate nature of a cat's kidneys, this surgery is urgently needed.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We would be incredibly grateful for any support you can offer to help cover this unexpected but necessary expense. Your generosity will make a significant difference in Tommy's life and our family. Thank you for your kindness, and may you all be blessed!
