Because I cannot stay young forever, especially under the harsh conditions created by Israel in Gaza, I am trying today to reclaim my right to education and continue the studies I was forced to leave behind in 2023.

I am planning to travel to Egypt to continue my studies in Cairo, and fortunately, I have been nominated for admission. This is an opportunity I hold onto in hopes of building a better future for myself and my family. However, to begin this journey, I need support to cover the enrollment fees as well as the educational materials and equipment necessary to continue my studies properly and settle into this new chapter.

The total cost of tuition and educational necessities is around €7,500. Thanks to the support and donations already received, reaching this goal now feels possible. If you are able to help, I would deeply appreciate any contribution, no matter how small, to support me in completing my education and building a stable future through which I can support my family in the long term.

I will also attach the necessary documents and papers proving my academic admission and the related educational expenses, in order to maintain transparency and clearly explain the purpose of this fundraiser.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone willing to donate and help me continue this dream and pursue my education.

Well, I got my paycheck for this week, it was fucking $30. They've been cutting my hours really hard but I didn't realize just how bad they had cut my hours. Fortunately I've gotten some help, but I'm still $100 short on what I need to send tomorrow.

Copy and pasting my last post, if you read it the first time there's no need to read it again

Hey y'all! First off, I want to say thank you all for the help, both now and in the past. I am schizophrenic among other mental disabilities and physically disabled (I have dislocated my knee twice this year) so the help I get here has really helped keep me stable over the past few years. And to those who haven't been able to help financially, thank you for your kind words and company. I feel like the people on this site are the only people I can just talk to without having to over explain myself. Here, I am taken at face value and treated with kindness and compassion. I have made some of my best friends on this site for this reason.

So, "programming fees" (the non-profit friendly term for rent) for sober living come every week, $125 a week. I do have a job, however it is a shitty fast food job. I get paid minimum wage, part time hours, and they schedule me outside hours the bus line is running so I also have to pay for Ubers home from a party area of the city, which gets quite expensive. Then they keep cutting my hours even further.

Then there's the actual sober living experience that also drains me of money, especially with recent events. I'm gonna vent about some of the recent events in the spoiler, but I'll explain the expenses. Toilet paper for a house of 8 people. Then there's the fucking chores. We're expected to wipe down everything every day, we're expected to pay for the cleaner, we're expected to pay for paper towels for the glass (we get yelled at for not buying paper towels), laundry detergent for clothing donations that go in the non-profit's clothing pantry in our garage, we're expected to go to 3 NA/AA meetings a week and ZOOM meetings don't count so gotta pay for transportation to meetings, then a meeting with the president of the non-profit with a few of the other houses where we just get yelled at for being behind on rent or not following the bullshit rules closely enough that I also have to pay for transportation for. I am one of two people in the house with a job.

Although the weekly rent is $125, I am quite behind on rent and am expected to pay something down on my back rent, so I'm asking for an extra $25 so that I'm technically paying on my back rent.

Thank y'all for letting me vent

Hi everyone, I wanted to give another update after my appointment at the hematology and red blood cell department. Also I’m really so sorry that my posts are over appearing but I just don’t have anywhere to run to apart from you.

I am from seeing the doctor today and she told me she’s really worried about my blood results. I had more tests done today and from what I can remember, she said my CRP is high, my neutrophils are very low and my platelets are also still low. She explained a lot more to me but honestly I’ve been overwhelmed and struggling to process everything. I’m just tired of going to the hospital again and again but also happy that at least I can be able to access medication because it’s not the same as it was in South Sudan. I’m really grateful for Canada.

This is where things become really difficult for me because after all these tests, I’m supposed to start medication and not all of it is covered. Some medications are covered, some I still have to pay for myself and right now I truly don’t have the means.

I’m really trying to stay strong through all of this though I honestly still need support right now. Any help, support or sharing means more than I can explain.

Please consider supporting me through,

PayPay: Sahilqudra@gmail.com

Thank you so much for the kindness and support you’ve shown me already. I really appreciate

well hexbear, this problem was solved almost instantly.

Rock on you beautiful people

Today, I’m writing because the exhaustion has become heavier than I can carry alone. For us, the war never truly ended — its aftermath still steals the simplest parts of my children’s lives every single day. We keep trying to survive with what little we have left, but the needs are becoming far beyond our ability, from food and medicine to the most basic necessities of life.

Please be a reason for helping us. 🙏🤍

Update to this post.

I have not been able to find a solicitor in time for the appeal's reading, so I have to appear myself. I've been told what to do, I just have to do it without throwing up or passing out. There's a good chance that because I haven't secured representation yet that the order to remove my son from the country will be stayed or at least delayed until I can be allowed to make an argument properly.

Wish me luck.

Even if they don't, even if the worst comes to pass, I am still fighting this like my son's life depends on it - because it really does.

I need about €50 ASAP to cover travel expenses and fees related to filing documents for the appeal.

The quotes I got for up-front legal expenses vary wildly, but I need at least €1,500 to start. Please help us in any way you can. We greatly appreciate it.

And if anyone can recommend an Irish solicitor, that would also be great.

Hello everyone, I honestly didn’t expect to come back with another update so soon but things have become more serious with my health.

I recently went back to the doctor and had more tests done. The results showed that my platelets and white blood cells are extremely low and both I and the doctor are very worried. I’ve now been referred to the hematology department in Toronto for urgent follow up care.

The doctor instructed me to avoid contact with people as much as possible and to be very careful not to get any cuts or injuries because of the risk of bleeding. Hearing that honestly scared me a lot.

I really thought things would finally get better after being resettled in Canada. I never imagined I would find myself asking for help again but honestly you have become the only support system I have right now. This no longer feels like simply reaching out, it feels like I’m running toward help because I’m overwhelmed. I’m really, really tired

I’m still a newcomer trying to adjust to life here. I don’t have a job yet and that hurts me too but I’m trying my best to apply, volunteer and get the certificates needed to work in Canada because one day I truly want to give back to the community. That’s one of my dreams ever since I stepped here.

Right now I’m struggling with medication, transportation for appointments, food, my sisters back in the horrible South Sudan and my mental health. I’m also constantly worried about my sisters back in South Sudan who still depend on me emotionally.

If anyone is able to help in any way, I would deeply appreciate it.

EDIT: Thank you to the kind person who sent extra 💜

So don't know how this happened but my brand new bank account got targeted by fraud. Unfortunately since it's a smaller local credit union they don't refund you until the claim goes through and they'll still hit me with an overdraft tomorrow (gets refund later but still would suck).

Shitty timing considering it took my food money for the week but luckily I can get to a good bank to get by for now.

Thank you in advance for reading. Anything helps 💜

Update to this post.

Thanks to some very quick help, I succeeded in filing the notice of appeal on time. It was something of a miracle that I managed to pull it off. The money I generously received was just enough to take care of everything. Thank you very much, you all know who. Now that that part is taken care of I can focus on getting a new solicitor.

I have no idea how much it will cost (or how much I will need up front) but the research I've done so far says that family law cases in Ireland can run up to €25,000. When I get a more accurate figure, I'll update the post. For now, that's the goal. Same for when I find out how much I need up front.

Please help us in any way you can. Please share this post with anyone you think can help out. We both appreciate it very much.

If you want more information about what is happening, I'll share what I can. If you have any question or can offer help in another way, please DM me. Thank's everyone. It still feels dire, but we're making progress thanks to you. :)

Life is no longer bearable… Every day is a struggle for the most basic things: food, safety, and a sense of peace.

We hide our exhaustion, but the reality is harsher than words can express. We keep going… because we have no other choice.

     Comrades, I’m reaching out because I am in a terrifying medical emergency and urgently need the community's solidarity. I have developed a severe tooth abscess, and I need emergency oral surgery to have it treated.The situation is critical. A tooth abscess isn't just extreme pain—it is an active, spreading infection.             
   If  I do not get a surgery immediately, the infection can spread to my jaw, my bloodstream (causing sepsis), or my brain, which is fatal. My life is quite literally on the line, but because dental care is treated as a luxury under capitalism rather than a basic human right, I am being paywalled out of the medical intervention that will save me.The total cost for the emergency extraction, anesthesia, and surgical treatment of the infection is $3,000. I do not have the funds to cover this, and time is entirely working against me.If you have anything to spare, it would mean the world to me and could genuinely save my life. If you can't contribute financially right now, sharing this post, commenting to boost visibility, or just sending solidarity my way is deeply, deeply appreciated.Donation links:CashApp: $BaileyteeDeePayPal: @KeralaDee95Thank you for reading, and thank you for always keeping us safe when the system abandons us. Solidarity forever.

Only 1 days left until my mother’s surgery

I’m trying to raise the cost for her operation, but time is running out and I’m honestly very worried.

Her health has been getting worse day by day, and it’s really hard for me to watch this without being able to do enough.

She needs a gallbladder removal surgery, and we are struggling to gather the full amount in time.

With all respect, and with the permission of the moderators, I hope this post can stay due to the urgency of my situation.

If anyone is willing to help, whether by sharing or supporting, it would truly mean a lot to me.

I work down town, specifically in a very popular queer party area. Normally I get rides back home from a housemate, but because of recent legal issues, neither of them can take me home from work, so I need help. K finally got my knee looked at by a specialist, I tore my ACL. I've been working and walking on it. I can technically walk home, but with how fucked up my knee is it really hurts to do so.

My Venmo is @thenewvenven and my PayPal is sh3lf1sh@gmail.com (normally wouldn't post this but I'm going to be at work the next few hours and need to have it public so other people can see it)

I appreciate y'all and hope y'all have a good day! ❤️

Edit: figured I would add this, it's a 4.6 mile walk home at midnight. For many reasons, this is questionable safety wise. If I don't get money, I'll live, but I figured I should ask

Edit 2: COVERED Thank y'all so much. Like I said, I technically could have walked home but with tearing my ACL it wouldn't have been a good idea. I'm about to go into work. If nobody has told you they love you today, I love you ❤️
