LESLEY'S GOFUNDME!

Leslie (She/Her)
Lesley is a local queer & chronically-ill artist in need of funds to afford her medical bills. She recently had surgery and has been making payments on the bill, but she also has several specialists she has to see for her chronic illness and mobility issues, and it’s been hard to keep up with the costs. Anything helps and is highly appreciated!

CODI'S GOFUNDME!

(organized by Zye P.)
Codi (She/They)
I had the privilege of meeting Codi online about a year ago and our friendship has blossomed over time. This creative, compassionate person lives in an abusive religious household in Maryland but hopes to escape by the end of August. They need funds for traveling, a new phone bill, and groceries. 

I am so proud of how much their self-worth has increased despite the disgusting manipulative behaviors of their parent. They fight their fear and insecurities every day. I hope funds from this market provide a boost of hope for Codi and empower them to continue fighting. Thank you.

DONATE TO RUSTIN!

Rustin (He/Him)
Howdy, my name is Rustin! I am a queer trans creator with chronic asthma. I had a serious medical event that happened end of 2024 that resulted in a 3 day stay at the hospital, as well as a few weeks out of work. Insurance didn't cover anything and I'm stuck with the bill. I am only able to work part time due to my asthma and my husband's income goes to keeping us afloat.

ANNESHA'S VENMO!

Annesha (She/Her)
I am black female student at western and I am going into my last year at western and I need to take classes in the summer but I don’t have enough to fund it because I mostly rely on scholarships and with that money has been tight recently bc I had to spend more time on school work because I didn’t want to fail anymore classes so I wasn’t able to work as much as I could and the places I applied to closer to friends they weren’t responding to me. I’d use the money mostly for school/classes and possibly rent and if there’s enough to spare food.

ATLAS' VENMO!

Atlas (He/Fae)
"I'm a trans person from East Tennessee who fled here due to immediate violence and in hope for a better life. Since being in Bellingham, I've moved 4 times and have been through a number of jobs. I've had a hard time getting on my feet solidly and trying to save to get top surgery. On a positive note I've made community through Makeshift Artspace and they've given me space to showcase my art. Any funds would be helping me pay for my bills and saving for surgery."

ARIN'S VENMO!

Arin (She/Her) 
"I've been working to save money in order to cover the costs of various gender affirming services which include electrolysis, bottom surgery, sperm banking, and voice training.
It's often a struggle putting anything away for these expenses while also having to support myself and cover regular costs of living. Most of these services seem like distant possibilities, so having access to any one of them sooner rather than later would mean a world of difference for me and my well-being.
any amount of assistance is immensely appreciated!"

FLYNN'S VENMO!
