In light of recent scamming allegations and bans handed out, we've updated the comm rules to include two baseline requirements for requesting aid on this comm. These changes are intended to help keep the lowest effort and most predatory scammers out of the community, without raising the barrier to entry too high. See the previous thread about scammers as well as Hestia's rule suggestion thread for some further context.

  • New Rule 2: Accounts must be at least 3 months old to post mutual aid requests. Exceptions can be made with comm moderator or admin approval.

  • New Rule 3: Accounts requesting aid must have some prior posting history on the site outside of the mutual aid comm. Exceptions can be made with comm moderator or admin approval.

Thanks to all our users for staying vigilant and helping keep Hexbear a comradely and positive place.

Hello, I wanted to try and compile a list of the hexbear users seeking funds as well as people outside the site's fundraisers so that we could feature it. These have all been posted before in out mutual_aid community.

Hello friends, I've changed my donation link after encountering several issues with GoFundMe and multiple donations not being processed. I hope you'll support me and my family. Because I received several donations on GoFundMe but they didn't reach bank account, I faced this problem several times, and unfortunately, the amounts were not small. Please my friends, to share a link between your family and friends on social media.

i am trying to get my electric bill covered

Things are very bad right now, and while I'm seeking another job, I am going out of state on the 18th and will be gone the rest of the month, and i've been told (and already knew) nobody was likely to hire me given that.

So I'm sitting here, trying to not get abused by my partner, keep the lights on, and try not to lose my shit from mourning, but these bills don't wait, because I live in a wretched country with an evil economy

and my ability to cope withers and withers by the day

my venmo/paypal is @ktkatte

i have cashapp in dms

for everyone who has helped me, past present and future, you have my love. thank you.

Update & heartfelt thanks ❤️ Thankfully, our support has increased beyond the previous $15–16, thanks to a generous donor who contributed 70 AUD (approximately $49 USD). We have now received around $64–65 USD, but we are still working toward our $300 goal, urgently needed to enroll my daughter and son in university. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings my children one step closer to continuing their education. Thank you to everyone who has supported us and shared our appeal. ❤️ https://gofund.me/1d3ea05

UPDATE: Justeat and sainsburys have both robbed me. I wrote about it here: https://hexbear.net/post/9250822

Someone questioned why I was wanting to get food delivered when asking for mutual aid, I wrote about it in another thread but basically my landlady's family are visiting so she's not driving me anywhere this week, her family are unkind and her husband is creepy so I'm staying in my room and I can't travel without help due to being housebound due to disability.

I think there are technical issues with justeat now, so that is a no-go.

If anyone can send a sainsburys gift card to DisabledAceSocialist@hotmail.com please do. I can't get food at all now otherwise.

Hello, awhile ago I posted a GoFundMe for my Palestinian friend, She is now in Italy studying, doing very well, her friend (who is pictured), was killed during the height of the ongoing genocide.

She is exceling in getting her BA and her family is still alive too (though they are still in Gaza) . I handled it clumsily but its all to her, apologies for not updating everyone... you saved a life from genocide in Gaza... if you donated to Aisha's GoFundMe you literally helped save a life... The truth is the West does not deserve Palestinians.. They are in large part politically and spiritually superior to those in the Occident.

🎓 I need $300 to enroll my daughter and son in university. So far, I have received only $15–16 of the amount needed, and there is still a long way to go. My children’s education is their hope for building a better future despite everything they are going through. Any contribution, no matter how small, can help me get closer to enrolling them. 🙏 If you cannot donate, please share this post.

am no longer asking for the impossible—I am simply asking for a chance. I need to raise $300 to help complete the university enrollment for my daughter and my son. After years of war and hardship, education is the only hope our family still holds onto. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this appeal. It may reach someone who can help. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings my daughter and son one step closer to achieving their dreams. Donate here: https://gofund.me/1d3ea05b6 Thank you to everyone who stands with our family during this difficult time.

Only a few days remain... and my daughter's dream may be lost because we cannot afford the university registration fees. Every passing moment brings the registration deadline closer, while we remain unable to pay the fees despite her hard work, determination, and dream of continuing her education. If you are able to help, no matter how small the contribution, you could be the reason her dream stays alive. Please help my daughter begin her university journey instead of watching her dream slip away. 🔗 https://gofund.me/1d3ea05b6%E2%81%A0%EF%BF%BD

It’s been a month since I received my last donation. I’m urgently trying to raise $100 to help my family with our basic needs.

Every dollar makes a difference. If you can help, or even share my campaign, I would be deeply grateful.

Thank you for your kindness❤️

My landlady's entire family have come to stay, they're here until Friday 14th. The entire house apart from my 2 rooms has been taken over by them. The biggest issue is that her husband is a creep who has behaved inappropriately towards me in the past and I don't feel safe around him (they're separated but he comes to stay with their daughter each year).

Her daughter is particularly horrible. She hates me because I'm on benefits and she looks down her nose at me. She also hates the fact that her mum let me live here for so long without paying while I went through my benefit appeal, and that I still owe her mum money, and that her mum helps me by driving me places. She's also furious that her mum occasionally lets me use her phone while I wait for my laptop issues to be sorted (so she's raging now while I'm using the phone to type this).

She goes out of her way to make my life miserable while she's here. She sprays the house with perfume, knowing it will give me a migraine, she picks on me every time I come out of my room, making fun of my appearance and encouraging her kids to do so too, and she takes over the entire kitchen all day and bullies me out of it so I can't cook anything or prepare any food. She also helps herself to whatever food I have in the fridge and cupboards, leaving me barely anything.

So I wondered if anyone could help me out with a justeat gift card so I can order things ready to eat and don't have to spend time downstairs. I can't afford to pay for that myself.

If anyone's able to help please send a gift card to DisabledAceSocialist@hotmail.com

I would be incredibly grateful for fast help with this. And thanks for any bumps too, I have to give the phone back now and check back when i can borrow it again later.

Life has become a daily battle—a battle to secure the most basic necessities of life, and another to keep my children's dreams of education from being buried under poverty and hardship. It is heartbreaking to watch them work hard and dream of a better future while I cannot provide what they need to continue their education. Is there anyone willing to help? Is there a kind heart willing to reach out before more years and more dreams are lost? Every donation, no matter how small, can make a life-changing difference for my family. ❤️ Please support us here: https://gofund.me/1d3ea05b6

Please read and sign our petition:
https://www.change.org/BringSoraHome

(from the most recent change.org update)
I apologize for taking so long to update everyone. Even though I am learning how to better deal with this horrible situation, my condition and wellbeing since having Sora taken away from me has not improved and in some ways has worsened. I am getting the medical and mental health attention I need, so I am in no danger and I am being treated well.

But my condition makes doing regular things extremely difficult. I have been talking to a number of people, but I could never find the energy to do much else. I have been going back and forth with many people in Ireland and in Japan about what has happened and what I need help with. It is very slow going, but a precious few people are actively talking to me and helping me.


Representation or not, I have to submit documentation to the Courts and to the opposition in physical form. Multiple binders worth of information. Since I have recently burned through the last of the money that was previously sent to me to stop Sora from being ripped from his home and his father, I cannot move forward without further assistance.

I need somewhere between €100 to €200 before this weekend to afford the material cost and postage to meet a pending deadline for submissions.

If you can help out, even just a little bit, please do. I seriously need it and there is absolutely no margin for error anymore. If you cannot donate, please show this post and the petition to your family and friends and ask if there is anything they can do to help. I have received a small amount of money so far, but I am going to need a lot more very soon.

I don't know how, but I have to succeed in arguing that deporting Sora was a mistake and that he needs to be with his father as he had been for his whole life and in Ireland to receive the competent mental health care that was concluded that he needed. Please help us.

Hey comrades :) !!!…..I hope you’ve all been doing well.

I’ve been meaning to share this update for a few days. I wanted to wait until our organizer had time to update the GoFundMe page after receiving the recent support, since he’s been busy with work.

I just wanted to come back and say thank you.

Because of your kindness and solidarity, we were able to catch up on our overdue rent and restock food and other basic necessities.

I’ve attached a few photos so you can see some of what your support made possible.

After months of worrying about rent, food and simply getting through each day, it’s a huge relief to finally have some breathing room.

We were also able to set aside a small amount for future essentials, so if we run out of groceries or need to buy cooking ingredients, we’ll have something to fall back on instead of facing an immediate crisis.

Thank you to everyone who donated, commented, boosted and shared my post. Every act of support helped us reach this point and I’ll never take that kindness for granted.

I’m deeply grateful to this community and I’ll continue to keep you all updated as we move forward.

With love,

Onandrah ❤️❤️❤️
