Header, "Emergency Safe Housing". subtext underneath reads, "We need help keeping a Black disabled friend in safe housing during this final transition into sustainable work. The remaining amount of our goal is needed to help with initial cost of work materials, rent, & food: GiveButter.com/5KAVjz" Next to the header is a graphic of a heart made from two bandages, and the background is a soft illustration of being up in the clouds, birds flying on either side of the header, and stars lighting a hopeful path.

A Black disabled gnc friend of mine has been food insecure & needs help finding safe housing as their current environment has been deteriorating their health. They have also been recovering from LongCovid that they caught from living here, which has impaired their ability to work.

This fund will help them to be secured into an apartment and acquire essentials such as food & transportation.

(Updates from most recent to oldest, ⬇️)

Update: Thanks to your help so far we have been able to get them housed. Sub-goals going forward are to keep them housed while they get themself sufficient employment to properly support themself. (more info in the pinned post)

Current subgoal:
0/$700

Update: Due to limitations on meeting larger goals in time, we've began pushing for sub-goals.

Update: Due to the time it has taken to crowdfund, we need more help, and the need has become more urgent. They are in the Global South, and temperatures have been at their highest. They have gotten more heat sick, and family members in the house have repeatedly gotten them sick from not masking. Funds had been used to provide them temporary refuge, and food, but we still need help for them to find permanent living. Please help them to get the $3,000 that they need to move out, marked at $6,000.

Need to reach $6,000 of goal to secure housing.
