Hello, and thank you for looking at this GoFundMe! My name is Simon, and I’m makin… Simon Grindland needs your support for Help Dorka Escape
MY BEST FRIEND NEEDS OUR HELP!
Many of you might know Dorka. She is a beloved member of our fandom communities, and her art has inspired many people. She has been especially influential in the OK KO fandom, and she used to host Voxman Week every year before I stepped in to help out.
All this time that my friend has been sharing her art with the world, she has been quietly suffering through some of the worst conditions I have ever seen. She is grossly mistreated by her family members, and her apartment is a cramped nightmare of junk and grime she cannot escape.
I'm calling on all of you now - please rally with me around Dorka so that she may finally begin to live an acceptable, peaceful life like she deserves! 🙏
$0 / $15,000
A big loving thank you to everyone who has donated and shared so far! 🥺 We still have a long way to go, but it's beautiful to be reminded that human kindness still exists in this world!
Please, let's keep the momentum going! Even just reblogging makes a huge difference! You never know who might end up seeing this because of YOUR reblog chain! 💕💕💕
$315 / $15,000
For anyone who would prefer other methods of donating, I have Paypal, Venmo, and Cashapp set up to receive for this fundraiser! Everything donated will be directly used to help my friend!

Dorka and I met through the OK KO fandom 4 years ago, and since then, she has gradually become one of the most important people in my life. She is such a sweet and creative person - a surprising treasure in this messy world. And I'm terrified that her situation will actually kill her if she isn't helped soon.
She deserves to smile. She deserves to be healthy. She deserves to finally feel like she can breathe (metaphorically and LITERALLY).
I know we're all going through a lot these days but that is all the more reason for us to look out for one another.
Your small act of kindness can save her life! 🙏

My best friend is still in desperate need of help, and progress on the fundraiser has slowed down immensely within the past month! 😣
PLEASE help Dorka escape her abusive living situation! Every reblog and every donation make a difference in the fight for her safety! Please give her a chance at a real life!
$835 / $15,000
DECEMBER UPDATE!
After two months of hard work, we have reached the $1,000 mark! While this is a great milestone, the battle is far from over. Dorka CANNOT escape on this much alone!
Dorka's humanity is not only being violated by her family on a daily basis, but by her country as well—which has failed so many of its citizens, especially the impoverished ones. She now needs OUR HELP to receive the humane treatment she rightfully deserves!
Please. 🙏 I don't normally beg like this, but because Dorka has touched my life in so many meaningful ways over the years, I just can't sit idly by while she continues to suffer every day. PLEASE help me help her! 🥹💗

HI EVERYONE, PLEASE READ!! This fundraiser is for me. Christmas is in a day and I would like to ask for your help! I'm doing my very best to make a lot of drawings and post them for fandoms (currently Black Butler, but I'm in a lot of fandoms), but it's extremely hard to even function in the situation I'm in. Christmas doesn't mean much to my family, so the bad feelings stay, and every day it takes an immense effort to push myself to make art and post them because I can't afford to eat well, or to get away from the constant family arguments and dirty environment. If you ever enjoyed any of my artworks, please share this with a few words and I'm extremely happy for every donations. My situation is even more serious than the document shows and it would mean the world for me if it was visible for more people. fundraiser
@dorkafricska always produced lovely art when I commissioned them for my OKKO fic and I want to do so again when I'm able to
Please give something their way in the meantime, they deserve the world
🥺💞

PLEASE help us keep the momentum going! YOU have the power to help my best friend escape abuse and poverty!🙏
Dorka is continuing to suffer abuse on a DAILY BASIS at the twisted whim of her so-called "family"! 💔 Please keep this circulating so that my friend can finally be safe and have a normal life! 😭🙏

Thank you to everyone who continues to reblog and donate! It makes so much of a difference! ❤️🩹I don't like to be dramatic, but my friend's safety truly does depend on us!
$3,208 / $15,000
Today is my birthday. The only thing I want this year is for my friend to finally be safe! 😢 She's suffered all her life. Please help me rescue her so that she can finally live for real instead of struggling in disgusting and cruel conditions just to survive! 💔🙏
$3,363 / $15,000
It's been 7 months since I started this fundraiser, and we still aren't even at 25% of our goal.
Dorka has spent 24 years trapped in hell and I desperately want to make THIS YEAR her year of freedom!
