! $1,975 in 5 days !

acacia now has only 5 days until their rent is due, and there is still $1,975 to raise

10 people donating $198 or 20 people donating $99 or 25 people donating $79 shall get acacia to their goal

$800 / $2,775 due tuesday april 2

from acacia: i do not have, and have never had, a basic quality of life i have had the first four decades of my life taken from me by the harmful actions of others, and have had to endure living in severe poverty, painfully witnessing my life and my potential and go to waste every day, because i have never been deemed worthy of receiving basic needs and have been left to go without

i live with immeasurable grief and have to come to terms with not only the loss and destruction to my life but also the significant loss of my capacity, only ever being able to experience a mere shadow of what i was originally capable of; all of this because of harmful others who'll never know what i've lived through and shall never go without a day in their life

your donations and sharing support have the power to radically transform acacia's life, interrupt the cycles of oppression they are trapped in, end the suffering they are so familiar with, and provide them with an opportunity to move toward the life they deserve

acacia does not have the privilege of community, friends, connections, or people to help share, and they are also extremely isolated; they are relying on people who see this post here to either share or to contribute

please circulate these flyers in spaces where they are likely to receive donations and contribute if you have $1 or more of wealth to spare 🤍

okay ik people are out here just trying to be like Valentina, but fr constantly pushing surveys is starting to feel like a micro aggression.

[veluigi]

this is what i been saying....regardless of what you do in the booth, the moment to pressure the Dems is NOW. yes, be strategic based on how much the electoral college & gerrymandering has cooked your state, but please don't complete the establishment's project of erasing democracy in your own head for them, not without a fight.

acacia has fought very hard for very many years to find safety & a safe, accessible, stable place to live.

they have done so all alone, without adequate access to basic needs while being continuously targetted by violence.

since arriving in safety at the end of january, acacia found a suitable property & was able to move in with funds raised through the care4acacia campaign.

they now need support to maintain their safety & to continue to remain in this home.

$2,775 is due on april 2

context i have been urgently needing to raise funds for tech ever since my ipad was maliciously damaged while i was fighting for my survival on the streets; it completely stopped working last year, and i lost essential functionality for communication and basic needs as a disabled person, for my artwork, my ability to do my work and earn income, and i lost all of my work and essential paperwork

i have had to prioritize housing and groceries and other essential needs, so my tech needs have been going unknown and unresolved

i can't continue on anymore with this tiny little ipod touch ( the only device i have ) because: it's old and is now now refusing to charge most days it overheats very rapidly and turns off for long periods it has been discontinued so none of the apps are working anymore because companies are all designing them for a later version of ios i cannot continue to try to do all of my work and rely on the limited functionality of a tiny (broken) ipod touch where most of the apps aren't even working anymore the ipod touch doesn't have the functions i need a) for accessibility and b) functionality for my work/so i can earn income

i rely 100% on tech as a disabled person to do everything essential in my life; a lack of the tech i need is a serious safety issue, would isolate me from absolutely all communication with anyone ~ my life is necessarily entirely online, being able to get my needs met, and a significant hindrance to my ability to function each day

i need specific tech to be able to offer my services and earn income

i need access to this tech before i begin a 9-month intensive neurographica® course on may 9 [i also need to raise funds to cover the course fee, which is $6,000/€5,500]

[please no suggestions about secondhand or other options ~ i cannot use other brands/models or secondhand or refurbished products for health reasons and i need to purchase these products myself directly from the manufacturer: thank you]

Care for Acacia is a collaborative project between vulnerable peer-in-need Acacia and peer supporter Asa'.

The aim of the project is to meet Acacia's most basic and essential needs, provide them with a baseline quality of life, create a pathway out of poverty, and build the foundations they need to generate their own income.

Acacia is very severely marginalized and extremely vulnerable. Their life has been a daily fight for survival in poverty, alone, navigating violence, in a perpetual and desperate search for safety, community and belonging.

Acacia is in great need of the care, love and support of their communities and to have their most basic and essential needs met. Let's give Acacia the care and quality of life they deserve.

Together we thrive … one act of community care at a time ❤️‍🩹
