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.

Today, my heart is filled with both pride and pain. My daughter graduated from high school in the scientific stream with an outstanding 96.4% average. After years of hard work and perseverance, she dreams of studying the field she loves and building the future she has worked so hard for. But reality is heartbreaking. We can barely afford our family's basic necessities, and I fear her dream will be lost just as her brother's education was interrupted because we simply could not afford to keep him in school. Please don't let another dream slip away. Any contribution, no matter how small, could give both my daughter and my son the chance to continue their education and build a better future. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing this message. It may reach someone who can truly make a difference in their lives. 💙 Donation link: https://gofund.me/1d3ea05b6

Hello everyone, I hope you’re all doing well.

This is Suleiman.

I am currently going through one of the hardest periods of my life, but Alhamdulillah (praise be to God) for everything. I have been trying my best to raise the money I need for my travel and university coordination fees so I can continue my education, but unfortunately I have only managed to collect a very small amount.

Even so, I am grateful that I had the chance to share my story with kind people who might be willing to help. Sadly, time is running out, and I don’t have much left before this opportunity is lost.

Today, I am reaching out once again to ask for your support. My fundraiser has been inactive for quite some time, and every donation—no matter how small—brings me one step closer to achieving my dream of continuing my education.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing my fundraiser with others. It could reach someone who is able to help.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who has supported me, shared my story, or kept me in their prayers.

I guess people know my situation - still waiting for my disability backpay, still in massive debt, etc. Virtually every penny I receive is going on rent, debt repayment and interest charges. I can't afford to eat yet or get basics like toilet paper without help from mutual aid. The food bank only gives 9 days worth of food every 6 months. If anyone can help, please send a supermarket gift card to DisabledAceSocialist@hotmail.com

This one takes credit card, debit card and google pay:

https://www.sainsburysgiftcard.co.uk/

This one takes crypto:

I'm really grateful for any help.

My partner just got her car broken into and had a huge amount of her clothing stolen. She's an unemployed disabled black trans woman who doesn't have much to begin with and definitely can't afford to pay for new clothes nor the repairs required to keep her car safe and secure (the car still runs, but the locks no longer function). Anything will help, She'd probably need at least $300 for fixing the locks and another $300 to help her rebuild some of what got stolen.

I have venmo, cash app, and PayPal 🫂🫂🫂

As y'all know, I work late af and the buses aren't running when I get off, so I have to pay for Ubers to get home from work, which is about $20 a shift. I take the bus there, even though it's 120f where I am right now and it's brutal.

I've been out of my anxiety meds for a while. While part of it is because the pharmacy just won't answer my calls for a refill, but even if they do answer I need about $10 to actually pick it up

Also need to go to the laundrymat, I haven't washed any of my work uniforms or socks in two months. Not only do I smell like shit, but there seem to be a lot of mites in my socks my legs and feet are covered in bug bites and sores

It's been a long time since we received any support, yet my children's needs never stop—not even for a single day. Every day without help leaves me standing helpless in front of my children, unable to provide even the most basic necessities. What hurts the most is not poverty itself, but seeing the look in their eyes when they ask for something I simply cannot provide, and feeling that with each passing day I am losing a little more of my ability to protect them. If you are able to donate, even a small contribution can make a real difference for my children. If you can't, please consider sharing my campaign with others who might be able to help. 🙏 https://gofund.me/1d3ea05b6 #HelpGaza #Donate #Emergency #SupportFamilies #Gaza

For those who didn’t know, I am a 30-year old gamer and college graduate. I was diagnosed with autism since early age.

I am very dependent on my pension and my aunt on my budget.

There would be a lot of problems related to food and survival after graduation, such as fees while looking for a job. Job hunting may not be easy even after graduation.

Hi, I got help with an Uber home from work last night (this morning? Idk what to call it), thank y'all so much ♥️ I'm gonna be real, today's post is going to be whinier than usual. I usually try to downplay my needs out of humility I was taught as a kid, today is not one of those days. You know, I don't want to make my request for financial assistance manipulative through being emotionally explosive and overly centering myself

So I feel dumb for just now realizing this, I have been getting absolutely fucked by bug bites for the past month because I haven't had access to a laundry machine. I even have a bug bite on my dick, it's terrible. This whole time I've thought every bug bite I've ever had has been a mosquito bite, but tonight I saw a picture of a chigger bite because I googled asking how I'm getting mosquito bites under my socks. Apparently I need to wash my clothes to myremove any stragglers. Washing and drying will be relatively cheap, I just need help with some Ubers because I have too many clothes to just take the bus. One trip in a car would be fine though. That'll be about $30 too

Then there's my anxiety med, a controlled substance and CNS depressant called Lyrica. I haven't had it in a few weeks due to finances and the pharmacy fucking with me. I've only been getting about 2 hours of sleep a night since I've been off it, my insomnia and executive function are really off without it. That's about $10 for the med, and this is me being whiny but after getting shot at this morning, I don't really want to take the bus required to get to the pharmacy (or at least not without anything for anxiety), I've faced threats and genuine danger on that bus every time I've ridden it with only one exception. It's about $15 for the Uber there, but once I'm back on my meds I'll just take the bus to save money. So that'll be about $30 for my meds.

Finally, transportation for work. Tonight is my last day of work for the week until I get my schedule for the upcoming week. I may make another post about transit when that happens, but for now I'm just worried about tonight.

My work has gone through a rerouting transition, and combined with the fact that I live in a college town and my job is to put beer on shelves (it's summer and all the kids are gone, for another week or two), I've gotten completely screwed on hours. This is and will continue to improve, but for now, after paying the bills that I couldn't shuffle, I have absolutely no money and no food in the kitchen. And I'll be late on rent for August, but that's a bridge I'll cross when I get there. For now I desperately need food. I work 45 hours a week at a very physical job, and have (undiagnosed) issues with low blood sugar. Plus I'm 5' 10" and 150 lbs, with no fat. I can't afford to lose weight.

So, here I am, looking for some help from my friends.

Thank you all!

Hopefully, this is the last time I have to do this, as I actually got hired by a full-time remote job! I start my training on,Monday, but I am also nervous. It might take a while before I am used to everyhing, but I take it, in the end, everything will start to feel normal. The training lasts a month, which is a good deal of time.

Hello! Looking for help with transit and meds this week, gonna have a breakdown of where the money is going in this post. The World Cup is over (I think) and transportation costs have mostly gone back to normal. The bus is no longer free, so that sucks but $4 a day is manageable. Having to take Ubers sucks ass, I wish I didn't work closing shifts this weekend, but alas I do. So it's $4 in busses a day, with a $20 Uber home when I'm closing, so about $25 per shift for transportation.

My other need is my anxiety med, Lyrica. I've actually been without it for a while because of finances and logistics. I've been getting by using some edibles a friend gave me, but I'm officially out of those after tonight, so my quality of life is about to go out the window. The edibles have been better than nothing, but cannabis is not a suitable replacement for a CNS depressant. I've been really shaky and unfocused without it, work has been difficult.

The pharmacy I pick up my meds from is by far the cheapest pharmacy in the city, but my new apartment is actually pretty far from it. It's off the bus lines, so it's not impossible to get to just difficult. Takes 4 busses just to get there. However this is worth it, because they only charge $9 for my monthly script. The next cheapest pharmacy charges $30, so getting a 2 way Uber and going to this pharmacy just makes sense.

Hello all! I finally have my phone back. Only took me snapping at customer service for them to activate my SIM, but it happened.

On this last check, I bought my disabled roommate and I groceries, a new phone, along with transportation for a few days. She doesn't make a whole lot per month and she's on a fixed income, so I help her with whatever I can. So yeah, what I put on this check was essentials.

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

I honestly wasn’t expecting to be back with another update so soon but I woke up this morning feeling overwhelmed in the best way.

The first thing I did was check on the fundraiser after sharing my update with you yesterday.

I could hardly believe what I was seeing.

An incredibly generous anonymous donation had come through.

I kept refreshing the page because it didn’t feel real. For a moment, I genuinely thought I was still dreaming.

To the anonymous donor, if you ever happen to read this…

Thank you.

Your kindness has given me something I haven’t felt in a long time: a chance to breathe.

This support means we’ll be able to catch up on our overdue rent and restock food, groceries and other basic necessities. Knowing we won’t have to worry about those immediate needs for now is an incredible relief.

I also want to thank everyone who donated, commented, boosted and shared my post yesterday.

Every comment helped more people see it.

Every kind message reminded me that we aren’t facing this alone.

This community has stood with me through some of the hardest moments of my life and I’ll never stop being grateful for that.

Yesterday I shared that the girls are finally safe in Canada because of the solidarity we’ve received over the past months.

Today, because of that same solidarity, I can finally breathe a little easier here in South Sudan too.

Thank you for believing in me.

Thank you for believing in us.

I’ll keep you all updated as we move forward.

With love and gratitude,

Onandrah ❤️❤️❤️
