Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday! It’s a big one this week so I’ve split “ways to give” into a couple of sections for you to peruse!

Ways To Give – Individuals:

rebelspyprincex is raising funds for their mother and younger sister, who are going to be evicted from their home after the death of their grandfather resulted in the bank attempting to foreclose and take the house back. They have about a week left to raise the funds; you can read more and support the fundraiser here.

Anon linked to a fundraiser for Alisa Sekerci, an Istanbul University student raising funds for a medical transition. She can’t work in Turkey because she’s an Iranian national, so she needs to pay for both medical costs and living expenses out of pocket. You can read more and support the fundraiser here.

tryslora is running a Kickstarter to print the first book of her original web serial, Commit to the Kick (you can find the serial at welcometophu). The book is complete and available, so the fundraiser is to cover ebook and print edition costs. You can read more here or support the kickstarter here.

theotherguysride is crowdfunding her driver’s ed classes; she has her vehicle and insurance all lined up but needs some funding to make the learning happen. You can read more here (including a couple of giving options) or give via PayPal here.

jabberwockypie and her housemates deadcatwithaflamethrower and drougnor have made the move from Maine to Florida, but they’ve encountered some undue expenses along the way, so are still raising some funds. You can check out the latest update here, or give to the paypal here (the paypal address to give to if you don’t use paypal.me is deadcatwithaflamethrower at gmail.com).

Ways To Give – Groups and Small Businesses:

Wendy and Brittany are two queer women raising funds to expand their microgreens farm, where they use energy-efficient hydroponic growing methods to produce pesticide and fertilizer-free greens. They’ll be able to double production if they meet their goals; you can read more and help out here.

aschwortz linked to a fundraiser for the Launch Pad Astronomy Workshop, a workshop for established science fiction authors. Funds go towards paying the authors’ expenses; past attendees include Ann Leckie, Jody Lynn Nye, Vonda N. McIntyre, and N. K. Jemisin. You can support the fundraiser here.

Ways To Give – Animals:

moonwalkingcrab’s cat, Fatty, had a bad accident and needs to have part of her tail amputated; they’re raising funds to cover the portion of the bill they can’t cover on their own. You can read more and support the fundraiser here or give via the KoFi here.

Corey linked to a fundraiser for Fancy, an injured and underweight kitten that was recently rescued by naamahdarling. They’ve hit the original goal but Fancy’s health problems, including a busted tail, are extensive; you can read more and reblog here or support the fundraiser here.

Housing:

ofinfinitespace and her partner signed a lease on a Chicago apartment – then found out they had a really early opportunity to move to LA. They can break the lease if they find new tenants to sign up for a year long lease; you can check out the apartment in Rogers Park here. It’s a spacious 1br near the Red Line.

And this has been Radio Free Monday! Thank you for your time. You can post items for my attention at the Radio Free Monday submissions form. If you’re not sure how to proceed, here is a little more about what I do and how you can help (or ask for help!). If you’re new to fundraising, you may want to check out my guide to fundraising here.
