Hello and welcome to disabled.social’s #MutualAid Thread!
We'll host these 2x a month. Reply to this post with your request. When replying to our thread, use the unlisted privacy. We will then boost it for you and help with getting it seen.

Format style:
Who you are and what help you need. Context depends on what you feel safe sharing.
Link to paypal, ko-fi, venmo, cashapp, gofundme or similar sites where you can receive funds. If a shop, include a direct link to your shop.
Add #MutualAidRequest hashtag and any related to your ask or community. Avoid overtagging - if hashtags are more than a quarter of your message, you likely won’t get a lot of boosts.
Be patient, we'll boost as we can!

Okay, I'll go first to help inspire others!
I'm Aidan, nickname Bird. I was denied federal disability despite having LongCovid and other chronic illnesses. I lost my job recently. Need help with housing, food, and utilities. My cat and I live alone with friends helping sometimes.
Housing bill is 790 a month. Utilities around 120.
Any help appreciated!
