Radio Free Monday (March 17, 2025)

[thelaughingmuse]

Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday for March 17, 2025! RFM posts links to peoples' personal fundraisers asking for community assistance, on both Tumblr and Dreamwidth.

Ways to give

Redbud-tree got hit with a $350 heating bill due to a drafty apartment building. They're on a fixed income, but are really close to having it paid for and just need a little more to be able to have it paid off by the end of this month. Read more, reblog, and find the donation link here.

Leopardbones' mother was hit by a sneaker wave and some debris in the wave. She's badly injured and needs financial help. Read more, share, and find the donation link here.

Recurring needs

Transgendz is is struggling to keep itself and it's roommates afloat. One of it's roommates will start chemo to fight cancer. Meanwhile, transgendz needs help with food, rent and a new washing machine. Read more, reblog, and find the donation link here.

Remy, who is multiply disabled, is currently experiencing homelessness after domestic violence. They're currently in a motel, which has taken up all their SSI; and their application for housing assistance was denied. They need funds to stay in the safe housing of the hotel while they await a court date. Read more, share, and find the donation link here.

Chingaderita is raising funds to cover necessities and vital healthcare for themselves and their family. She is without cellphone or computer, making it almost impossible to apply for jobs. They're still living with mold, and are hoping to make repairs before the rainy season begins, which will make the mold much worse. You can read more and support the fundraiser.

Community resources

(I haven't gotten the "resource" sections set up yet. That will go live on Monday, March 31 - so in two weeks. Until then, this is a bit time-sensitive, so I'm posting this here now, shortly after the link was submitted.)

Nerdykeppie shares information about Keshet and the Hebrew Free Loan Society, who are partnering to offer interest-free loans of up to $10,000 for individuals and families to support relocation costs to another state because of anti-LGBTQ+ laws, policies, and climate in their current state of residence. Read more, reblog, and find the link here or go straight to the Keshet page, which links to a screening form for interested folks.
