This is a second attempt to raise money for airfare to Netroots Nation in Philadelphia next month.
I need help to get to Philly from Tucson AZ. I live on Social Security which doesn’t give me much extra for emergencies or even expensive necessities. Netroots Nation has become my annual vacation, thanks to loggersbrat and others who have helped over the years.
Since 2011 I have co-led the interfaith service at the conference with loggersbrat. In fact, I am working on the service today and into the weekend. This service provides a place to reflect on what we have learned at the conference and to consolidate our resolve to take the fight back home. It has been a valuable pause for those of us who participate.
This year I need airfare. On Expedia I have found flights for between $450 and $500, and they are cheaper than other sites I have checked. Or, as has sometimes happened, maybe someone has frequent flyer miles that could pay for airfare, and I can deal with ground transportation and parking on this end. So I am looking to raise $500. I don’t have a dog this year, so at least I won’t need to pay for a dogsitter. ( Though I am ready for another dog, I decided not to get one until after NN 2019.)
If you can contribute, my paypal account is:

or I can kosmail my address to anyone who prefers regular mail.
Thank you in advance.
