TL;DR: I want to help a friend with rent. Help me help them.

A friend of mine is currently going through something very heavy. (Because I have not asked for permission to create this fund, I will not disclose exactly what happened to them.) They have recently expressed nonchalant comments about financial struggles. Now, amidst financial woes, they are having an emergency within their family. I'd like to raise money for them so that they can take a bit of time off of work without worrying about essentials.

Their rent and utilities shake out to be about $500. I know firsthand that financial help, while seemingly unimportant in the grand scheme of things during a crisis, can be an immense weight off of someone's shoulders. Of course I will do my best to support them in other ways, but for now, I feel that creating this is the best thing I can do for them.
