userexists—has a fundraiser, Goin’ SOLAR, with your help! Right now she’s recharging Wheeliehouse’s batteries on a daily basis, and imposing on a friend to do so. With a $500 new member coupon, good only through the end of the month, and buying refurbished rather than new, she can get a highly rated solar power installation that is plug’n’play for RVs for just $3000. She would like to raise another $1400 to cover some bills that have built up while she’s been sick a lot and some upcoming odds and ends detailed in the diary; call the goal $4500 $3987.
Her PayPal is userexists11 at gmail dot com and there is a GoFundMe.

anotherdemocrat—Update–a little side gig and donations are helping, but it’s still a long haul to pay down the principle, so the interest doesn’t keep mounting. The old car is hanging in there, for short drives.diary: Anyone know where I can find a 2nd job? She’s in Austin and is suddenly $24000 in debt, mainly due to an HOA assessment! From the diary: “So, $24,000 is more money than I can ask even a big community like Daily Kos to donate. I have a venmo: at Becky-Helton, Cashapp: $B3ckyHelt0n, and GoFundMe, if anyone wants to help with next month’s payments but for a big total like that, I need a 2nd job. My day job is M-F from 8-5, so it would have to be evenings & weekends.” and “Skills: writing, 20+ years of customer service work, super reliable…” Kosmail, if you can help.
From a Daily Kos Guild tweet about Christopher Reeves: “Christopher's house burned down early in February. An insurance dispute has made it difficult to access his funds for necessary items, so we're trying to keep him and his family sheltered, fed, and clothed. PLEASE help however you can.” There is a GoFundMe that currently stands at $15,360 15,385 15585 15,635 15,710 15,910 16,110 16,310 16,510 16,615 16,815 16915 16965 17965 towards a newly revised goal of $25,000.
This has been his only income , but now from Aashirs nani: “He’s opened a computer shop in Leavenworth, at 2110 S 4th Street. They do repairs (I asked!). If you live in the area, you can help him while helping yourself.” It takes a while for a new business to start generating income.

He's having some health issues currently and the income from his newsletter isn't adequate to cover everything the family needs. He'd like to expand subscriptions to his Patreon page, The Claw News. He needs a break from DK for personal reasons but you can find him there.
