Get any money from the federal government during the pandemic? Congratulations! You received a form of #UniversalBasicIncome. Until #UBI becomes truly universal, I will loudly and proudly advocate for #ArtistBasicIncome crowdfunding. https://www.npr.org/2024/03/27/1198911116/could-universal-basic-income-help-end-poverty
The CrowdFunds FYC List is now 5 strong.
Feel free to add yours!
Especially if you are financially okay.
You can always donate 1-100% of your #ArtistBasicIncome to the crowdfunds of others who may not be as successful in attracting donations.
