I make these posts every month, until I pay off my debt, this one is for August 2017. If you’d like to see my old posts you can look: here
Basically I had to withdraw from school because my grandparents died while I couldn’t afford my meds to treat my mental illness, which at the time was only diagnosed as depression, I know now I’m schizophrenic, and have BPD, which were impacting my ability to continue my education without me knowing what they were. I was also suffering from a physical illness that nearly killed me.
I’m now medicated and desperately want to go back to school, however I owe my university $8,231.72, and I can’t go back until I pay that off as my transcripts are frozen. My goal is to raise $1028 a month if it’s possible, and maybe be done with my debt march 2018, however I’m willing to wait as long as it takes tbh. So far I’ve went from nearly 14k in debt, to 8k in debt so yall have done quite a lot already to help me.
I just want the option to eventually go back to school I want to complete a math degree. I currently live with my family, who are honestly pretty abusive, I have a friend who lives by my old university has said I could live with them when I pay this off, which would allow me to be away from my family, and go back to school without worrying about housing.
If you think this is a worthy goal my little brother has set up a youcaring and paypal as I’m on SSI so I can’t touch the money without being taken off, so he’s taken it upon himself to help me pay off my debt.
you can donate to youcaring or you can donate to the paypal: here and the paypal email is: ikenoxx@gmail.com
Thanks for tolerating this on your dashes, like and reblog if you want to, and maybe consider donating if you want to. don’t feel bad if you can’t donate or reblog, or you can only donate a dollar, it all helps. everything yall do helps.
Currently I’m down to needing $968 out of the $1028 for this month
It’s taken me 3 years to decide to put one of these up, I have exhausted all channels of help, in these past three years, and still yet the university refuses to help me, and refuses to unfreeze my transcripts or alleviate my debt. I’ve been proven disabled by the government, and have every single proof of both physical and emotional hardship causing my leaving of university, and still yet not.
I stress this, I have looked into every single option on how to solve this for three years, during these three years I have had this blog. I am not starting a fundraiser without knowing I can’t get the university to alleviate my debt. My debt is in stone, and until I pay it off I can NEVER go back to ANY university, believe me I have tried. It is impossible for me to better my life as there are no jobs I can work without a college degree due to my disability.
If you think this is a worthy cause please like/reblog/donate, only if you want. If you don’t want to see posts like this, block this blog, or blacklist the donations tag. Thanks for reading/tolerating on your dashes!
Down to $420.25
wowowow, I was unsure I’d make this months goal but yall are making me believe that I just might, and still stay on track to possibly going back to school september 2018 !

Click here to support Nikki Joly, Jackson, Michigan LGBT Rights Activist
Nikki Joly works for the American Red Cross and persistently defends LGBT rights as the Director of the Jackson Pride Center in Michigan.
During the summer of 2017, despite fear mongering by local bigoted conservatives, Nikki defiantly and persistently organized Jackson’s very first LGBTQ pride march. On August 5, 2017, the parade commenced and was supported by many locals including St. John’s United Church of Christ of Jackson, Michigan.
Tragically, last night, just 5 days after Nikki led the march, his entire 2 story home was burned in an act of arson. Nikki lost his home, all of his belongings, and his beloved 5 pets, including 2 german shepherds and 3 cats in the fire. While the Jackson and State Police departments, Nikki is left in dire need of financial assistance. This is a hate crime that was premeditated and destructively heartbreaking beyond measure.
My father passed away shortly after my birthday this year and then shortly after that his mom passed away. As many know, burials are not cheap. Because I am the only child and grandchild it was up to me to make the decisions, they were both cremated so I decided to bury them together. I have one family member from my dads side that had helped me out but I still need to get a headstone. Because it is two people it’s even more to have two peoples name on the stone including a picture if possible. I’m in a very tough place in life and I just want a proper and nice place for them to rest in peace. I cannot afford this so any help will be greatly appreciated, please share and help me out.
Thank you for your time!

i was really hoping i could do this on my own but with the end of my lease coming up on september 30th i figured that if I’m going to ask for help i better do it soon. so here’s the deal:
i have the money i need for deposit / first months rent on basically … any apartment or house i could possible want in tucson. that’s not the issue.
the problem is getting there. my mom has graciously offered to drive myself and blossom from chicago to tucson. oh my god fae that’s so long why don’t you fly? hi have you met my cat? she’ll die. anyway.
renting a uhaul trailer is going to cost where from $230-350. gas and motels for the night will add up, too. my mom will help but i want to take as much of the financial burden off her as possible, so I’m only asking for $500. i work two full time jobs and have about $600 saved so far to cover emergencies. by september 30 i plan to have at least another $600 saved- but things go on wrong sometimes, you know?
you can help by buying me a coffee: http://ko-fi.com/A8689UA
or commissioning me for art (shoot me an email at andsarahbellesaid@gmail.com!)
i currently have $160 / $500 ☺️😭❤️ this isn’t particularly urgent, because i have until september, but please keep spreading ❤️
heyyyy i had to buy a ticket to tucson for the beginning of september for apartment hunting so this is extra relevant now!!

after dealing with multiple violent assaults, most of them rooted in homophobic or transphobic cause and it's left me with most of teeth bashed out or broken. it's at the point now where eating has become immensely difficult, i'm in a ridiculously large amount of pain most of the time and it's bad...
i’ve had most my teeth bashed out through transphobic and homophobic violence and i just lost my job because they’re refusing to fire a coworker who came in drunk and sexually assaulted me and screamed racial slurs in my face. this is supposed to be to get my teeth fixed but at this point it might very well turn into money for survival while i try to move forward. this sucks every possible bag of dicks but i need help.
i’m about 40% of the way to the first set of implants, and it’s barely the end of july, i couldn’t be more grateful to see this taking off, and if it keeps spreading like this i might actually somehow make it all the way there eventually. thank you all so much 💕
the implants are about two grand apiece at the minimum and i need several of them, so i know the total is high but i have to hope i can get there. every little bit is adding up, and i feel optimistic as hell about this

My name is Shiloh and I live with my partner of 3 years, Damien.

Please reblog and donate!
YouCaring let’s me send thank-yous to named donors, but I also want to thank all our anonymous donors! Everyone’s generosity is really touching <3
I want to expand on this and explain why this is having such a negative impact on our lives.
Last year I was set and ready to start school (to be a nurse). The day before school was supposed to start I found out that someone took out student loans in my name to the tune of $12,000 while I was deployed to Iraq in 2010. I had no idea.
Basically that means that I couldn’t get any funding from the department of education or from the VA. After 7 years these loans were in default.
The department of education began taking 100% of my disability payments despite my case being investigated as fraud. That was a pretty big chunk of income that just randomly disappeared from my income every month.
So basically I’m fucked. There’s no telling how long this will take to be resolved but it could take years. After my motorcycle crash and other big ticket items coming up and having the IRS come after me we’ve found ourselves under water.
The bottom line is our government is taking money away from a disabled veteran because someone else took student loans out in my name.
If you can help, please do. It could make all the difference in the world.
Love
DamienHey all my siblings
If you can, please share this. My partner and I are struggling to make it and could use a little charity.
Please donate if you can, either way please share!
Love you,

Help Pinky Breathe!!
I hate doing this but I need help to buy an air filter. I moved to BC and the wind carrying the smokes of the fires from the Mainland hit the Island this week and it makes breathing really hard for me.
Money is extra tight and I’ve borrowed my roomie’s filter but she’ll want it back eventually. Anything would help, I’m shopping like crazy to get a cheap but good one! I wish I could wait till the end of the month to get one but I can’t breathe *now* D8
Any advice on those are welcome too I am completely at lost as to what to get!
My paypal is here!!
