Boozhoo (hello), my name is Ken, I am a disabled Ojibwe artist from northern Wisconsin. I am writing this post because I am having a hard time making ends meet and any donations I could possibly receive at this time would be greatly appreciated. Recent events have left my bank account depleted and my cupboards bare, I have some food but it will not last and I still do not know how I will cover all the utility bills.
I do have PayPal, that is really the best way to donate at this time, the email I use for that is: baapimakwa@gmail.com, or you can click here.
Miigwech (thank you) everyone. Working hard to at least get caught up and still coming up short, every little bit helps.
Latest update, really upset, everything keeps going wrong and it’s so hard to catch up, and now the electric / gas bill is higher than normal and close to being late. So thankful for the help I have received and continue to receive, miigwech ❤
UPDATED AND REPOSTED BECAUSE THE SITUATION HAS CHANGED. ORIGINAL POST DELETED BECAUSE IT IS NO LONGER ACCURATE AND I DONT WANT IT CIRCULATING ANYMORE. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO BOOSTED IT AND DONATED. ❤️
My name is Almond, I am non binary and use they/he pronouns. I was recently kicked out of my mother’s home in Redding, CA because she is under a lot of stress and doesn’t want me living with her. She deals with mental illness and has a difficult time not taking it out on me. Over the past year she has continually kicked me out, then begged me to come home using manipulative tactics like threatening to get rid of my dog (who is my emotional support animal), only to kick me out again. There have been times that I’ve left to go out with my friends and she’s texted me telling me that I left my bedroom messy and to never come home again. My dog was abandoned and I rescued her, so it causes extreme stress and trauma for her when my mother constantly separates her and I. I need a living situation where I don’t have to be scared leaving that I might not be allowed home again and where my dog and I will not have to be separated. I was also recently r*ped by someone who is widely known and loved in Redding and I am scared to out him when everyone loves him and will side with him. What he did to me has scared me and disgusted me to the point that I can’t eat or sleep and I don’t even want to go out in public because I’m scared I’ll run into him. My dog and I are currently staying with my grandmother who will be moving to Iowa on February 12th. When my grandmother leaves I am not sure where I will go. The goal is to find a room to rent in Chico with my best friend, J (who is living in an abusive household and needs to escape) but neither of us has the money. J has a job in Chico but is given very few hours and makes very little, so they are searching for a second job and trying to sell things of theirs. I am currently trying to sell my car, and any other items I have that are of worth. I am working hard to find a job in Chico and have a few leads, but until I am working the truth is that I have absolutely no money to sustain myself or my dog. I need this money to help J and I get an apartment and support myself and my pup until I am on my feet. I feel terrible asking for help from people, but I am in a really difficult situation and I am stuck. If you would like to donate or even give words of encouragement it is extremely appreciated. Once again I am so sorry, I would not be asking for help if I didn’t truly need it. Thank you❤️
After a lot of hard work, I finally got a place of my own! I’ve signed the lease and, with all of your help, was able to pay rent and a deposit. There’s still a lot left to do, however.
I need to:
Get water and electricity switched over into my name
Get the oil tank for heating filled and keep it filled
Get internet set up in the house
Furnish the house
I do have a job, but it’s not a very high paying position. As a matter of fact, I’m looking for something to supplement my income because it’s really not that much. That’s where you guys come in once again. If I can raise the rest of this money by move-in day (January 17, 2018) the kids and I will be set for a good little while.
These past few months have been an absolute roller-coaster ride for us. In the past two months I have lost my mother, arranged a funeral, faced homelessness, moved, gotten a job, and found a new place. I’m still shocked I managed to get through all of this relatively in tact, but I did and none of it would have been possible without your help. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for all that you have done. There is no way I can repay you.
Someone told me to do this a while ago, but here’s my wish list.
I got some stuff from my wishlist!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!! 💕💕💕😭😭😭
I just got an estimate on how much it’d cost to fill the oil tank in my house to heat it and the total cost will be around $790. That’s on top of the cost of renting a truck to get all my stuff out of storage and just paying bills for the month.
I could really use some help with all of this if possible. If youcaring won’t let you donate you can also donate through PayPal, the cash app, and Venmo.

Miigwech all, still trying to plan a big shopping trip, there’s better food choices and prices if I can get to Duluth, MN, this means 4hrs of travel and a need for gas money and most likely having to buy a meal for my driver. Though this seems like a lot for just food shopping it makes sense as local options, especially on the reservation, or the tourist trap of a town next to it, include far more expensive and less healthy options. Any help is greatly appreciated, hoping to get all stocked up before the first big snowfall.
Still trying to make this trip happen, and still short on utility bills for January.
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to my Go Fund Me or PayPal! I’m almost halfway to my goal. I had surgery on Dec 27th during which they placed bone grafts on the end of my right femur. I’ll be off work until roughly February. The money I’m raising is for my living expenses during that time, my medical bills including prescriptions, and anything left over goes to my savings account where I am saving to replace my broken-down wheelchair with a rigid chair, most likely a Quickie 5R.
Feel free to shoot me a message with any questions you may have about my medical situation and whatnot, and please help spread my donation links.
My grant has run out. There’s one under-sized paycheck to come in, and then we got nothing. And a tree is very slowly falling on our house. We’re afraid that it will break a window, and then we’re screwed, as we have neither insurance nor money to pay to replace it.
So many people have already donated, and we appreciate it so, so, SO much. You have no idea. But it’s not enough to live on yet.
I’m jobhunting every single day, but there’s no rushing these things, only making sure you’re exposed to as many opportunities as possible.
So. If you can and would care to, we would REALLY appreciate any help you can give.
It’s a new month, with all new bills and needs. One of the cats is sick, and the vet bill has already been way too much.

yes, if it was summer i would bury him but since it is winter cremation is probably for the best, and then i can scatter his ashes down by the dock, his favorite place to go for sniffs, he’d get so excited when we turned down that road.
any help is appreciated, it is looking like it could be between $60-150. paypal email is
