It could be a lot of things: some of my friends have worked for the government and lost their jobs. Along with many of them being artists and not having enough money. It could also be that whenever I share it it gets lost in other posts.

Thank you so much!!!!!!

Hi! Thanks so much for reaching out. We’re hanging in there, but we could seriously use all of the help we can get right now. If you wouldn’t mind sharing this fundraiser within your network, I would really appreciate it.

Sorry for being MIA for a while, but I’m going through a lot right now.

How are you doing?

My mom got laid off from her job.

Yeah, fun times, said no one ever.

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers during this challenging time.
