Hello again! Thank you everyone that helped us get this month paid for, sadly it looks like we might have to deal with this through to November now which really sucks, but for now we arent desparately chasing down rent for the night fearing we’ll end up on the street any given day.

This post is just for some help with food and general hygiene products along with paying for some of my wife and I’s prescriptions that have been ready for a while but we havent been able to pick up that are pretty important for our health and cause really shitty withdrawal symptons without them. It would cost us altogether, $120 to pick up every one of them. However, we can make due with just getting the most important ones which we’d only need about $70 for.

Any help towards food and the hygiene products mentioned (deodorant, shampoo, toothpaste, etc) would also help a lot as we’re extremely low on both since our food stamps were cut :/

I hate to ask for help again, but due to our situation which I detailed a little bit in my previous posts, we don’t have many options or places/people to go to for help at the moment :(

DM for payment links (i think its technically against the rules to post them here?) or for questions etc!

this community is amazing and we cant tell you all how much youve already helped us, having the stress of worrying about if we’ll end up on the street every night lifted for the next few weeks/last week or two has felt incredible and we owe it all to the generosity of our fellow comrades here.

thank you, and solidarity forever!

Moderator Pinning Rules:

Moderators are strictly prohibited from promoting/endorsing/pinning individual mutual aid requests (especially those of their own) as this creates unfair post visibility and could therefore benefit more from that than the standard user. Moderators caught engaging in this behavior will be swiftly removed from the moderator board with extreme prejudice.
Moderators are allowed to pin and crosspost donation requests for large scope issues such as natural disaster relief funds and bail funds ((Example)[https://hexbear.net/post/16574) along with other crowd or moderator-compiled informational resources pertaining to donating or volunteering (Example), so long as the utmost due diligence is done prior to endorsement, especially in the case of directing people to donate to non-profit organizations.
Financial documents of non-profit organizations available to the public must be heavily scrutinized before moderator endorsement, and links to those must also be included in the endorsement post to help the community make their own decision if they should donate.
