*Yes* it's not very much money, and *yes* I think their application process is intense for the amount of money ($300). Nevertheless.

Just putting out some feelers -
I'm considering trying to put together a Death Cafe for folks who are disabled, especially those are semi or totally housebound and might not be able to get to one otherwise.
Is there any interest in this? It would be on Zoom, either on a Sunday afternoon or a weekday evening (EDT/UTC-4).

Feel free to boost!
Got a membership to our local wildlife place on their opening day. It was a great time! Thanks to @petrosophia for suggesting we go.
The box turtles apparently had just come up that day and were very sleepy. Seeing them nap right next to food cause they were just that sleepy still was a treat.
Also we were informed the eagle has anxiety. Big mood.
